He listened and heard nothing.
But as he wanted to get to the

The breach which he had thus
contrived admitted a little light.
He could see enough to make his
way between two casks, over some
broken window frame, to an
empty space on the far side.
His eyes grew accustomed to
the darkness as he vert on. For

London, Nov. 11.-Just before
Prince Maximilian of Germany
Baden offered his resignation as inn
perial chancellor he issued an appeal
"to Germans abroad in which he
said:
I'm these difficult days the hearts

"Our soldiers have fought to the
last moment as heroically as any
army has ever done. The homeland
has shown unprecedented strength in
suffering and endurance.
"In the fifth year, abandoned by
its allies the German people could no
longer wage war against the increas-
ingly superior forces. The victory
for the right which many had hoped
has not been granted to us. But the
German people has won this still
greater victory over it's self and its
belief in the right of might.
From this victory we shall draw
new strength for the hard time which

The vote now stands 1861 for the

There are still eight precincts to

WAR OFFICIALLY AT AN END.
BY Robert J. Bender.
Omitted Press Correspondent
Washington, Nov. 11.--At 6 o'clock this
morning, United States eastern time, the greatest
war in the history came to an end.
The state department officially announced
early today that the German plenipotentiaries
signed the United States-Allied armistice terms
at Marshal Foch's headquarters at S o'clock this
morning, French time, and hostilities ceased at
IL o'clock<this morning, French time
While the armistice merely halts the war
and does not end it, the terms laid down by
Marshal Foch are such as to prevent Germany
from renewing hostilities.
The war, therefore, may be regarded as
definitely ended.
There remains now the great problem of
peace conference and gigantic work of returning
fighters to their home lands. Geneva and Brus-
sells are considered as most likely places for
peace negotiations and so far the general staff
has already completed it's plans for general
rehabilitation.
The nation celebrated wildly today Fac
tories and stores everywhere closed and thou
sonds formed interWinding parades.
