TURKS BREAK TRUCE
AS PEACE DICKERS FAIL

LONDON. Jan. II. - forts by the
Germany ENJOYS at Brest-Litovsk to i'm
pose militaristic peace terms upon Rus
sia today threatened to bring the
negotiations to an end
The Turks. whose terms were rejected
by the Bolshevik delegates, are re-
ported to have broken the armistice on
the Armenian front and fighting is be-
lieved TO have been resumed there.
A dispatch from Kuban said that
the Turks had landed 10000 troops from
Black Sea transports near Treblzond,
and that submarine. which was with
the transports. had sunk a big Russian
transport. Both acts were In direct
violation Of the terms of the armistice.
Negotiations which were being carried
on between representatives of the Cen
trail Powers and the Bolshevik Govern
ment at Petrograd to settle economic
questions and arrange for the exchange
of prisoners has been suspended pend
ing the action taken by the conferces
at Brest-Litocsk.
No matter what fate awaits the peace
negotiations, Russia has finished her
role as an active power In the war, ac-
cording to Sir George Buchanan, the
retiring British Ambassador at Petro.
grad. Sir George has reached Stock
holm on his way to London. and a dis
patch from that city today quoted hin
as saying:
THE Bolshevik Government has at
tanned such n position that there Is lit
tie likelihood of its being overthrown
although 1t cannot be regarded as rep
resentative Of all Russia. The consti
tuent assembly has now been summoned
but in my opinion the Soviets tBoishe
cikD will still be the real holders ol
power. Trotsky. the Foreign Minister
Is trying hard for a separate peace, bu
at the same time he Is fighting the Ger
mans with their own weapons
Austrian newspapers are now takini
the attitude that with Russia being spill
up into small States, eastern Europe
will soon be as full OF danger as tn
Balkans. Racial hatreds between tn
Balkan States are held by some to b'
one Of the contributing causes of tn
world war.

BOLSHEVIKI TO RENEW
WAR, REPORT IN HARDIN
TOXIC, Jan. IA.

TOhlO, Jan, IL
A dispatch from Harbin, Manchuria'
today, printed in the newspaper JiJi'
stated that officials of the Chinese east
ern railway company have been notified
that the Bolshevik' Government at Petro-
grad has discontinued negotiations with
Germany and is preparing TO renew hos
tilities.
The Bolshevik Government was said
further to have effected compromise
with hostile political factions and that
a proclamation has been issued at Petro-
grad in the name Of the Constituent AS
sembling announcing R'ssia's determin-
alton TO continue the war.
The Bolshevik War Office was said
to be calling out or preparing to call
out all males between fifteen and fifty
for war service
This information reached Harbin in
official form, the dispatch added. and was
cordially welcomed by the Russians.
The Harbin dispatch may refer TO the
rupture at Brest-Litovsk more than a
week ago when the Germans nearly
brought the parley to an abrupt termin-
alton by refusing to transfer 1t to neu-
tral soil.

MILLER AS COMPROMISE CHOICE
Many Of the thlckly populated
counties of the state, through leaders
have come out strongly in favor OF
Senator Sproul. From Norrstown
comes the announcement that friends
of Judge John Faber Miller. OF Chest
nut Hill, NJ ontgomery Country, will
spread propaganda" in the hope OF
having him taken UP as the compromise
candidate. but his name has received no
consideration in any OF the leading
camps. His candidacy and that OF MI
O'Neil are the only ones that nave
been heralded to any extent since Mr
Sprouts announcement, and both OF
these blooms" were old before Senator
Sproul spoke positively from Pittsburgh
last Thursday night. Friends of Sena-
tor Sproul still claim that he Is n strong
candidate in Montgomery County. and
that unless Judge Miller Is given un-
divided support Of all factions he will
not be a candidate.
j. Lord Rgby, of Media who holds
a berth In the Office Of Auditor General
Snyder. will probably be the successor
of Senator Sproul. At least. he is being
boosted to AL the place made vacant
by Sprouts candidacy. William RAM
sey, Of chester, has expressed desire
to run for the position In the upper
House. but he will not do so unless
Rigby retires from tho race.
Definite announcement of the McCor-
mick-Palmer choice for the Democratic
nomination for Governor is expected
within a few days, the direct result of
A. Mitchell palmer's conference In Phill-
delphia with Democratic leaders
