Rv Review Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON. Oct 7.-An admir- alty board headed by Sir Eric Geddes. first lord of the British admiralty, ar rived in Washington today as the guests of the navy department. The party came in response to an invita- tion extended by Secretary Daniels to Sir Eric some time ago. and in part to return the visit to England of As sistant Secretary Roosevelt of the navy department.
 Sir Eric tonight said to newspaper men:
 "It is a great pleasure to us and source of keen satisfaction to have been invited to visit your country and confer with your administration.
 Personally I have the added pleas ure of nenewing my acquaintance with the United States of America, where as a young man I spent some strenu- ous years learning lumber and rail way work and making many good friends.
 For the last eighteen months we, on our side, have had the opportunity of seeing your navy at work and I am voicing the opinion not only of the royal navy and the British na- tion, but of the whole of the allies, when I say that your sailors, no less than your gallant troops have won our deepest admiration.
 "Seamanship, technical skill, endur- ance, and good fellowship-all of these we know we could expect from the United States navy and it is these very qualities in a degree far exceeding our anticipation which have endeared your officers and men to us all and have brought about that complete unity of spirit and purpose between the two of the board of admiralty bears testi- mony.
 "The dauntless determination which the United States has displayed in creating a huge trained body of sea- men out of landsmen is one of the most striking accomplishments of the war. Had it not effectively done one would have thought it impossible. and words fail me to express our admir- ation of this feat undertaken and ac- complished by your navy department. of which MT. Secretary Daniels is the civil chief
 "The kindness of the invitation and the cordial and hOspitable welcome of the president, Mir. Lansing, MT. Dan. iels, Admiral Benson and all other of your great country whom we have met has touched us deeply, and my colleague, Vice-Admiral

SENATE SPURNS
 PEACE OFFERING
 OF BLOODY HUN

WASHINGTON. Oct. 7.-Immediate rejection of the German and Austrian proposal for an armistice and peace negotiations was demanded in the sen ate today by leaders vOicing the com mon sentiment of the membership.
 There was no dissent from the view that an armistice would defeat all that America and the allies have been fight ing for, and every speaker during two hours of a spirited session devoted en- tirely to discussion of the enemy's lat est move. joined in declaring that only through military victory could the cause of the allies and humanity be won. The suggestion of such step was scornfully denOuncuu as an insid- ious attack of a losing enemy.
 Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, chairman of the senate foreign rela- tiOns committee: Republican Leader Lodge of Massachusetts. ranking min Ority leader of the committee: Sena- tors POindeXter of Washington. Me Cumber of North Dakota. Pittmau of Nevada, Ashurst and smith of Ari- zOna and Reed of Missouri were among the speakers, representing both political parties. The discussion which was made to vacant galleries. closed as a precautiOn against the Spanish influenza epidemic. may be renewed next Thursday when the sen ate recOnvenes after a recess.
 After Senator Hitchcock and others declared an armistice impossible, Sen atOr McCumber. in responding, said as the first requisite to any peace negotiations there must be absolute surrender by Germany. including dis solution of her army and navy and pledges for complete indemnifications The resolution was referred to the for eign relations committee.
 Although first pointing out that Ger many's offer contemplates acceptance of President Wilson's fourteen peace terms. Senator Hitchcock declared that the request for an armistice is absolutely abhorrent" to every mem- ber of the senate. It ts ''unthinkable. " he said. that the German and Austrian proposals will be accepted. and he insisted that not only must Alsace- Lorraine be restored to France. but that, in peace negotiations. an organic change in Germany's laws must be had so that the allies will deal with of the German people.
 Declaring the armistice would mean loss of the war Senator Lodge said the allies must gain a complete mill tarv victory and that Germany must Do put behind the bars" He pointed ont the danger of the peace offen- sive," which he predicted last August the enemy would make, and said he did moi believe President Wilson con templates accepting any such prOpos- al ss that made by tbe enemy.
 Senator Poindexter in the discussion | and otber senators in private declared ! it would be inadvisable for the senate ] to adjourn in view of the develop ! ments and that the foreign relations . committee should keen in close touch i. with the situation. It was suggested . that m event of a recess an agree ment for prUn.O. reconvening upon call of leaders should be made.

Steady Gain of Influenza Throughout Nation, Causes Cooperative Health Meas ures to Be Taken
Rv Review Leased Wlrel

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.-Mobiliza- tion of the full forces of the American Red Cross to combat the epidemic of Spanish influenza which is spreading rapidly over the country was deter mined upon today and instructions sent to all chapters.
 In cooperation with the public health service and the state boards of health, the Red Cross will enroll nurses and will freely use it's accumu- lated hospital supplies to fight the epidemic. A call also will be made for volunteers to go into the homes where mothers and housekeepers are i'll and assume the management of the household.
 In a further effort to curb the spread of the disease, Surgeon Gen, eral Blue of the public health service, today suggested to all state health of ficers that schools and places of amusement be closed and public meet ings discontinued in all places whers the malady becomes prevalent. Im- portance of reporting cases also was urged by Dr. Blue.
 Reports today to the public health service showed both that the disease is spreading and that the number of cases reported where it had been pre- valent heretofore is increasing. This, however, was not the situation in army camps, the number of new cases reported during the fortye-ight hours ending at noon today showing a slight decrease. Pneumonia in the camps continued to increase with 4532 new cases and 1888 deaths reported since Saturday
 Influenza cases reported from all camps since the disease became epi- demic September 13 total 167. .00O; pneumonia cases 17,102 and deaths 4910. Camp Dodge, Iowa, reported the largest number of new influenza cases during the forty-eight hours period to noon today with 3092 cases. Camp Funston, Kansas, the next larg- est, 2O70.
 While influenza shows abatement at Camp Meade, Md, and Lee, Vir- ginia, pneumonia cases at the former numbered S44 with 115 deaths and at the latter 357 with seventy-four

TURKS SUFFER BLOW
PEACE TALK CONTINUES TO EMENATE FROM CENTRAL POW FRS BUT FAILS TO TAKE ROOT AMONG THE NATIONS coMPRIs- ING ENTENTE
CBy Review Leased WIrel

UNDATED WAR LEAD, BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. The troops of the French General BerthIeot have de- IiVered a successful blow against the Germans northwest of Rheims which adds materially to the menace that is hanging over the German front from the North sea to the Swiss border. This was the capture of Berry Au Bac, on the south side of the Aisne about ten and half miles northwest of Rheims and only scant five miles from the eastern end of the famous Chemin Des Danes ridge at Craonne. A further advance northward across the railroad not alone will put the great stronghold of Laon in pocket, but also will outfIank Neufchatel, an- other enemy stronghold on the west.
 Tie Turks also have suffered a seri- ous blow in the loss to the French of Beirut, capital of the Vilayet Syria The occupation of this seaport on the Mediterranean by a French naval di- vision gives the allies a base for the landing of men who can operate in all
 
 roads radiating from it.
 Although peace talk is still in the aaI there is no peace for the German and Austro-Hungarian armies in the field
 While attempts are being made in well informed circles" in Germany and Austria to show that the latest peace proposals of the Central powers are honest expressions of a desire for a just peace" Marshal Foch's armies are proceeding without pause in their task of clearing Belgium and France of the invaders. And they are con- tinuing to meet with great successes. Likewise in Serbia and Albania the Serbs and Italians are fast retaining enemy-occupied territory, while at last reports the British General Allenby in Palestine still was hard after the re- treating Turks
 While further gains have been made by the British east of Arras, where the operations have, in view of the capture of the highly important town of Douai and other advances have been recorded between Cambrai and St. Quentin. chief interest for the present centers in the fighting in Champagne and between the Argonne forest and the Mouse. where the French and the Americans are driving the enemy steadily northward, despite great re- sistance on positions of strategic value.
 All along the front from Rheims to the Mouse. a distance of more than fifty miles, the enemy everywhere has met with serious reverses and is fall ing back at some places in disorder under the heavy pressure that is be- ing imposed against him. Where the enemy is trying to resist, the French and Americans are meeting their counter thrrsts with splendid stamina and gradually forcing them to give ground steD by step.
 East of the Argonne forest, between that great wooded bastion and the Mouse. the Americans have further ad- vanced their line notwithstanding the fact that the enemy has thrown in large endorsements to hinder the plotting out of the forest and the form ing of a junction by way of the Aire valley between the Americans and the French troops on it's western side.

While there may be some question as to the form of the reply there is no question whatever as to its nature. It may not use the short and forceful term unconditional surrender" which would reflect the sentiment which has come from the spOkesmen of the na- tion, but it is sure to convey to the German government very clearly the fact that nothing less than the terms already laid down can be accepted. and that those terms cannot be made merely "the basis for negotiations. as to an armistice such a step would be looked upon as suicidal and not to be thought of.
 By this time Prince Maximilian's note and that of Baron Burian. the AustrO-H Hungarian foreign minister, in official form undoubteuiy are in the foreign offices in London. Paris and Rome. forwarded by President Wilson as requested by the Central powers.
 The exchanges now going on have a two-fOld purpose:
 Obviously the American govern ment would not proceed to speak for the other belligerents on a mater of such importance without consultation among them. and it is purpOsed to avoid the mistake of making a curt and peremptOry rejection which could be used by the Central powers before their own people to bolster the argu- ment that they are waging a 'defen- sive' war and that the objects of the |, co-belligerents are to destroy them
 Lacking official announcements of what the president has done. it is highly probable that he had taken one of these two courses:
 Either ha has asked Premier Lloyd George. Clemenceau and Orlando to advise him of their replies or. more likely still. the president already has formulated a reply and asked the pre- miers for their acquiescence.
 The temper of debate in the senate today and the general tone of public opinion in the United States as ex- pressed in the newspaper comment. are very fair index of the govern ment's views. The cOncensus of Opin- ion in the senate debate was that the offer should be rejected: the prac- tically unanimous opinion as reflected m newspapers all over the country was that no peace terms short of un- surrender could be dis cussed.
 It is very clear that the reply will be not only an answer to Germany and her allies. but a statement for tie historical record of the world It is realized on every hand that srejection Of peace offer must be a convincing one and one which will justify the pro longing of the war to the ends sought. It is realized that it must be cOnyinc- ing to the people of Great Britain. France. Italy and the United States. SO that they may be warned against the insidi0us danger of throwing away he hard won victory sO near their grasp. and at the same time leave no for the militarist leaders
