Constantinople.
Report Of Collapse Accepted
The collapse of the pro-German
government In Turkey is regarded
here virtually as an accomplished
fact. Consequently a direct appeal
from Constantfneple for peace, with
but regard to Berlin. is expected mo-
mentarily.
If Germany's reply to President
Wilson's inquiries regarding her
peace proposals was dispatched last
night. as press dispatches from Swift
zerland indicate, it probably will reach
Washington not later than some time
tomorrow or tomorrow night.
Prince Maximillian's first note was de-
livered personally to President Wilson
by the Swiss charge here, so should a
reply come to the legation tomorrow 1t
may be held until Monday to await the
return of the President from New York
where he is participating in Liberty
day celebrations.
1t was recalled today that the first
note was about forty-eight hours COM
ing by cable from Bern, leaving there
on Friday night and reaching the lega-
ton here Sunday evening. This was
slow transmission, however. and it Is
possible that delivery may be accom-
plished more expeditiously this time.

A. J. BA[FOUR INSISTS
. ON PEACE THAT IS RIGHT
British Foreign Secretary Tells
American Editors Germans Con.
tinue to Be "Rrutes."

LONDON, October ia. J. Balfour
the British foreign secretary. speak
ing at luncheon given to party OF
American editors, said:
I'VE have to make q right peace
and do not think a right peace is a
very easy thing to make. Our enc
mics are attempting to change their
constitution, but appear to have no
notion that what we call a change is
not SO much a change in the formal
purpose of the government as a
change of hearts whereby that gov
eminent is to be directed and ami
mated"
Show No Material Improvement.
Mr. Balfour said the Germans had
shown no material improvement in
their disposition during the four years
of the war.
'Brutes they were when they began
the war. AS far as I can Judge
brutes they remain at the present mo-
ment."
The foreign secretary said that per-
haps he spoke with a warmth and in
dignation unbefitting his position, but
with the news of the Leinster outrage
he found it difficult to measure his
epithet.

zone would have thought" contin-
ued Mr.. Balfour, that those who
brought in America to their own I'M
doing by crimes of this sort would
have shrunk a little from repeating
them at the moment when their fate
is to be decided by America perhaps
even more than by any other of the
co-be1ligerents."
Mr.. Balfour said he wished he could
think crimes Of this kind were those
of small, dominant military caste,
but it was incredible that they could
be repeated through four years of
embittered warfare if they did not
commend themselves to the popula-
ton which committed them.

ONLY HALF MILLION
D. C. Must Raise $13,m0,-
600 During Remaining Sew
l. en- Days of Campaign.
Mr.. McAD00's APPEAL

The local loan committee announced
today that up to midnight last night
bonds of the fourth loan issue
amounting to s14,50O,000 had been
tabulated and reported by. the banks
of Washington.
This total represents an increase
of only half million dollars over
the preceding days total, and
with only seven working days re-
manning before the end of the drive,
this city must raise s13.100,000.
People Urged to Increase Buying.
The people Of Washington must at
once awaken to the responsibility
resting upon them if this city is to be
saved from the shame of failing to
raise it's share of the nations six
billion-dollar loan, according to ex-
pressions made today by members of
the local loan committee in discussing
the probable outcome of the big drive
here
Despite the fact that the city has
only seven working days remaining
in which to subscribe nearly half it's
quota. the local committee is work.
ing with Il determination to bring sue
cess here. Although they realize that
the present situation is one of grave
concern thew are hopeful that the cit
liens Of this city will respond dur
ing the remaining days of the drive as
they did in the previous loan cam
paigns and that Washington again will
win a liberty loan honor flag denot-
ing that it has reached it's quota.
The committee is banking strongly
on the inspiring effects of today
liberty loan day-proclaimed as such
by President Wilson. The true con-
dition of affairs here have been put
squarely up to the people by the COM
mittee. and it confidently believes that
they will respond loyalty and literally.
Banks Open for Business.
All the various government depart
mentS are closed today in honor of
Liberty Loan day, but all of the banks
are open for business. and the COM
nlittee anticipates a big boost to the
city's total Subscription as Il result
1t was originally intended by the
committee to observe Liberty Loan
day with demonstration worthy of
the nations capital. but the unfor-
tunatc spread of influenza and the
necessary restrictions which resulted
have made all forms of celebration
impossible. However, the committee
Is alive to the occasion and is taking
every possible advantage of the day
in a persistent effort to obtain sub
smiptions.
