MAN
HURT IN ACCIDENT

John Dean of Briggsville was badly
injured when he struck another car in
Portage.
1t appears that Charles Roberts, Of
the real estate firm of Robert Bros,
had come down from the depot and
had gone over to call on his brother,
George Roberts, III Wisconsin street.
The Ford car owned by Messrs. Rob
erts was left standing in front Of the
Roberts residence when Mr.. Dean
came along and driving rather fast,
struck it from the rear with his car.
The Roberts car was forced to the
boulevard by the impact and the Dean
car turned completely over on it's
side. The front wheel of the Rob
erts car was torn off and the car
badly wrecked. The Dean car was
also smashed to a considerable extent.
Dean was thrown to the asphalt pave
ment and before rescued the car had
to be lifted so he could be released.

VICTORIES LIFT
FOOD BURDEN
VIII Be Easier to Supply the Medi-
terranean Countries Since the
Sea Is Now Clear

Standing by itself, regardless of an
impending German surrender, the
Austrian armistiee is of the first i'm
portance in the food problem. The
terms definitely open up the Mediter
ranean sea to safe navigation by al
lied shipping. Accordingly it will be
possible to ship to Europe the vast
food supplies of India, Australia land
the east generally, through the Red
sea and the SueZ canal, obyiating the
much longer route around the Cape of
Good Hope. This, even though Ger
many elected to fight on, would make
possible the quicker feeding of Italy,
Greece and part of France, at the
same time lifting this burden from
the United States.
The signing of the armistice also
may open up food stores within the
dual monarchy. The Hungarian crops
are reported good and there have been
reports of great boarding of food in
that country.
Food administration officials at
say the armistice will
make it practically impossible foT Ger
many to obtain fuel oil and gas, to
build up supplies within Germany that
are stated to be down to almost moth
ing.

SELF On RAILS

at Pardeeville about a month. She
was the wife of A. A. Verick, who

kNR Nk HhN
Dual Empire Rendered Impotent,
Yields TO All Demands, Including

The end of the world war is in

The end of the world war is in
sight.
Following the complete capitulation
of Austria-Hungary to the allies, the
terms upon which Germany may also
obtain an immediate armistice and
thus conclude the struggle, perhaps
within twenty-four hours, were signed
on Monday in Paris by representa-
tives of the allies and the United
States. This fact was announced early
in the evening by Secretary Lansing
at Washington as follows:
"According to an official report
received Monday evening the
terms Of the armistice to be Of
fered to Germany have just been
agreed to unanimously and signed
by representatives of the allies
and the United States in Paris.
The report states that diplomatic
unity has been completely
achieved under conditions of ut
most harmony"
ACCEPTANCE is SEEN
In giving out this statement it was
fairly we'll understood that the terms
laid down in the Versailles conference
would be accepted by Germany. 1t
was something more than an impress
sion in official circles.
There was a conviction that Ger
many was ready to accede to the
terms dictated by the allies.
The dual monarchy is definitely out
of the war
The momentous turn has come "
an outcome of the diplomatic negotia-
tions initiated by President Wilson.
In official circles it is taken to mean
the quick ending of the strife that has
gone on since the summer Of 1914.
The dual monarchy agrees to give up
her armament, and her navy and to
abandon all occupied territory.
ACTION WAS INEVITABLE
Official Washington has known for
some days that utter collapse of the
central powers was inevitable. The
notes from Austria and
Germany, it was felt, was firm indi-
cation of the utter breakdown, of the
and Hapsburgs. Wash
ington felt Monday night that the end
of the war is soon to come.
With Austria-Hunga out Of the
conflict, with Turkey having capitu
lated, Germany was left alone, after
the armistice of Monday, to fight it
out.
Germany's internal situation, from
intimate advices received in this coun-
try, has been known to be critical.
That Germany could attempt to pro
long the war with her allied forces
her has appeared to Off
cials as unthinkable.

Der of increases in the pay of the
