miles OF the 250- mile front from the

FEAR OF INVASION
OF GERMANY LED
TO PEACE PROPOSAL
Ludendorff Gave Gloomy
Picture of Military Situation
To Crown Council.

LONDON. Oct. 19-(Brltish Wire
less Service). particulars
are now available concerning the re-
cent happenings in Germany leading
up to the sending of the German re-
ply to President Wilson's questions.
According to the Essen Zeitung, the
decision to reply affirmatively was
taken at n dramatic meeting of the
Crown Council in Berlin, where Gen.
Ludendorff made gloomy report on
the military situation.
In the presence of Emperor William
and all the federated princes, tho
General, according to this newspaper,
| declared the situation was such that
Germany might be invaded within a
! few weeks. In view of his great
promises Of last spring he was made
the subject of bitter reproaches.
Prince Max of Baden, Imperial
| Chancellor. said the war must be
stopped at once. King Ludwig OF
Bavaria sharply criticised Luden-
dorff, while King William of Wurt-
temberg declared a heavy respons
bility rested upon the Emperor. I'll
Grand Duke OF Hesse complained ,
military interference in politici
matters. The Chancellor finally CT
the recriminations short, the newt
paper adds, by proposing submissio
to President Wilson's terms.
Indications that Gen. Ludendorff
was probably correctly represented in
his attitude by the newspaper Is con-
tained in n message from the Berlin
correspondent of the Danish newspa-
per, Berlingske Tidende. who reports
that at the end of September Luden-
dorff declared he had lost the game
and could only hold the west front
a fortnight. At the same time Bull
garia gave in, and concurrently with
Ludendorff's declaration of his defeat
there came an ultimatum from Aus
tria- Hungary, stating that Germany
should request peace. as otherwise tho
Dual Monarchy could not take any
further responsibility, n Czech revo-
luton being expected, the correspon- =
dent adds.
1t is held here that Baron Burian's
speech on President Wilson's last note
Is also in the nature of an ultimatum
TO Germany, peremptory in character,
although similarly masked in cour-
teous phrasing. II is considered plain
from this speech that for Austria
Hungary the war is over, that she
cannot go on any longer and that II
Germany fails to satisfy President
, Wilson and the Allies then the only
alternative OF the Dual Monarchy 10 a
separate peace.
