RumOrE OF an imminent general
peace have lately spread through West.
crn Europe. Spain and the Vatican
havo made particular efforts In that
direction. However noble those efforts
were, they wero destined 70 break In
face Of Tho opposition Of the United
States.
ut is now. accordingly, absolutely
evident that tho determination to kill
emanated from the White House at
Washington, and is concentrated in the
person Of President Wilson. 1t goes
without saying that the doctor Of phil
csophy, President, democrat and hu-
manitarinn Woodrow Wilson will DO
able to invent tho best Of reasons to
justify a continuation Of the war. But
those REASONS will teach US nothing.
Do we not find them in the history Of
all sacrilegicus wars?

Gen. March Says Enemy's
Retirement Is Along
25O-Mile Front
Problem Is Where
Huns Will Halt
Americans and French
Draw Pocket to Force
Huns Withdrawal

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.--The Ger
man retreat from Belgium continued
to-day at a rate that indicated early
arrival OF the Allied forces before tho
first Of the enemy's series Of defence
lines. Reports from the front were Of
q scattering character. however, and
furnished officers here with little basis
for gauging the immediate strategic
situation.
General March referred to this
situation in his weekly conference,
saying:
From lie Cateau northward the
British have reached but have not yet
attempted to cross the German de-
fence line which there follows the
cast bank Of the Sellc River, up to
the Sensee marshes"
The situation along the front was in
such state of flux, shifting every
hour, with the German withdrawal
gaining in speed, that General March
made no effort to outline the strategic
possibilities. He did, however, call at
tention to the fact that the withdrawal
had expanded to cover practically the
whole 250-mie front from the coast to
the Meuse, where General Pershing's
forces are carrying forward the Allied
right wing.
Line May Be Broken
If the German commanders are sue
cessful in bringing their great retreat
to halt on the expected defensive
line officers here believe that the enemy
cannot long remain in that position.
The Allied thrust already appears to
have fractured the keystone of the

 From 200 to 300 cellar mon, who supply coal by the pailful orbagful to poor families on the West Side, have formed an association to press their demands for coal, and many of them have closed their cellars till they can get supply.
 Throughout the city, apartment house landlards and jonitors are Joking in dismay at the scanty piles of coal in ther cellars, while in many the tenants have already been experiencing the discomforts of un- heated rooms.
 Up in the Bronx, Fuel Admins ter, Cyrus w.

NEW YORK, Feb. 22.-Only the kindnes of nature is saving New York, in the face of the present fuel famine, from unimaginable and an precedented death ate. Thou sands of New York's poor are being kept warm by the fires that burn ill the sun, not from the coals on their own pitiful grate. A sudden forst would plunge thousands of families into misery.
 Already the fear of a continuation of the pessnt cold spell, and the knowledge that they can buy no coal has put sections of the city on the verge of panic. Sharp winter-hinting winds early this week brought out long lines of mothers at dawn to wait for the opening of the coal dealers offices and to plead with distracted dealers for few pounds of the precious fuel for their families,
 In the Brownsville section of Brooklyn these lines have formed twice a day-in early morning and late afternoon-while all day long

The companies are gaining favor by theataning to sue the city for lack of protection ot property, so the Chief of Police has ordered, that henceforth, the pavements of the city streets shall be left intact and that all scabs shall be searched, for guns and registration cards, before making any more attempts to run cars.

ST. PAUL, Feb. 22.-The street Car men are again out on strike in this city; the railway companies failing to keep the agreement made with the men three weeks ago.
 The last strike almost completely blocked all traffic in the city, and completely demoralized business. The people were so completely dis gusted at that tmc that the Trast- ton Interests were forced to make peace with their men. But only for a time being however, for they contiued to bring in scabs and now they reflse to take back the Union men who were discharged in body previous to the last strike. The Carmen are supported in ther de- mands by Organized Labor and by the entire public opinion of the people of St. Paul. A program of importance has been laid out by the Central Labor Council, whereby a general strike in sympathy with the Carmen is threatened if the Traction companies do not abide by their previous agreement.
