any further dickering with Germany,

such crude thing to Congress. He

Since war was declared ESQ daily papers
have been merged with other papers and
$50 papers have suspended publication.
The War Industries Board has ruled that
no newspaper shall be started anywhere

hardly necessary. The condition of pre-

AMSTERDAM, Oct. 17-Summariz-
ing the comment of Berlin on President
Wilson's reply, the correspondent of
"The Nieuwe Rottedramche Courant"
says that in official circles it has been
received with amazement. The Presi-
dents remarks on an armistice. it is
declared, deal with matters that speak
for themselves or have already been
settled in the German note.
The Leinster disaster is deplored in
the "highest degree, and the Journal
says it would be more deplorable if it
led to the continuance of the slaughter
on the front
The responsibility for the misery of
the population and the destruction of
the villages in the war area is vigor-
ously disclaimed and these "who]lv
unnecessary and unjustified re-
proaches" of Wilson are regretted
Inc paper continues: "'The peaceful
evacuation already agreed to by Ger
many would put an end to she'll fire
and the panic of the population and
prevent immeasurable disaster. There
is no reason why, as Mr.. Wilson saws
! the Allied government should regard
the evacuation with horror and quakine

N1SPATCHES from Holland
say that the Hungarian Par
lament has issued a procla-
nation declaring Hungary's politi-
cal independence of Austria. al
though still recognizing the "per
sonai union" due to the dual SOW
ereignty of the present Emperor
king. 1t is the first step toward
complete Hungarian independence.
In the breakup of the Hapshure
empire Hungary is forced to con-
slider her own future. And thai
future can best be served by Hun
gary's seeking peace as a separate
racial and political unit. The bond
between the two Hapsburg states
was purely artificial. And, though
Hungarian statesmen are much to
blame for the jingoistic Balkan pol
icy which eliminated in Austria
1iungary's attack on Serbia, the
people of Hungary can easily be-
come reconciled to a dissolution of
the imperialistic partnership with
Vienna and an existence hereafter
as diminished but purely Magyar
state.
| Hungary furnished the best fight
ing troops in the armies of the Dual
Monarchy. Violent Indignation was
expressed in the Hungarian Parlia-
ment last June at the sacrifices i'm
posed on the excessive Magyar di-
visions in the abortive Austro-H Hun
garian ogensive in northern Italy
Hungary has been passively out of
the war for several months. She
will now probably try to purchase
easier terms of submission by fol
lowing Bulgaria's example. Defeat
will at least have realized for he,'
the kossuth dream of 100 per cent
nationalism and independence.
The fruits of the Allied offensive
in Flanders are being rapidly gath

Courtrai north to the coast has been
completely smashed. A British ma

Dor yesterday Zeebrugge, too, has
probably been evacuated by the Ger

as a sea base. Brugcs has also
fallen. 1t could not be defended
with the canals to Ostend and Zee
brugge in the hands of the enemy.
Allied patrols entered the city late
yesterday afternoon.
The German tide is setting
strongly out of Belgium. The Ger
man armies in the north have been
subjected to very little pounding
since the Lys Valley offensive died
away last spring. They got out of
the Lys Valley salient almost un-
molested. They are getting out of
the Lille salient with comparatively
little punishment. But their old
fighting spirit has evaporated. They

The technical questions and condi-
tons of an armistice, with which
President Wilson dealt thoroughly
are questions mostly of military in
terest, the baron declared, and "it is
matter of course that the negotia-

for peace by rstanding. Baron
