Said to Have Admitted Pos
sibility of German
Hostilities
DEMANDS S'WILL BE
MADE OF GERMANY
That She Cease the Warfare
Against Poles and Re-
strain Her Forces

Paris, Feb. l3.-The supreme war
council has decided, says a Havas re-
port, that the armistice with Germany
will be renewed Feb. II for a very brief
period, with the allies reserving the
right to suspend it at any time in hte
event of Germany's failure to carry out
new clauses or those which have hither-
to not been executed 1t is said the
terms will provide that the Germans
must cease hostilities against the Poles
and maintain their forces within fixed
limits.
During the brief period of the renewed
armistice, special commission will def
nitely draft the conditions Of an armi-
stice which will last till the signature
of the peace preliminaries. These con
ditions, which the supreme war council
is reported to have approved in a rough
form yesterday afternoon, have in view.
il is said, the rehabilitation of the Ger.
man army and the disarmament OF the
enemy under the supervision OF the al
lies. These terms, it is understood, viii
be communicated to Germany so that
the national assembly at WeimaT will
the provisional armistice expires.
Marshal Foch, who leaves for Treves
to-day, will interview Premier Clemen-
ceau this morning and will begin draft
ing the armistice provisions which the
supreme war council will probably ex.
anime this afternoon.
1t is reported thai NJ. Clemenceau
made an impressive speech at yester-
days sitting of the council, showing the
necessity of taking all desirable precau-
tious against Germany, At the after
noon sitting President Wilson is declared
to have adopted the same viewpoint
affirming that all Sthe allies were en-
gagged on that point and that divergen-
cies which cropped up during the pre-
vious discussions bore solely on the most
suitable methods of obtaining the nee.
essary guarantees.
President Wilson, according to the re-
port, is understood to have declared in
conversation that resumption OF hos.
tilities was a grave eyeHtuality to which
he would agree only on the most ab.
solute essential considerations, and not
for any secondary motive. The report
states that, IN Mr.. Wilson's opinion, the
non execution Of the terms of the armi.
stice by Germany would Justify the re.
sumption Of war, and that he would not
hesitate in that case to order the Ameri'
can army to take up arms again.

VERY MILD CAUCUS
Is FORECASTED
There Is a Dearth of Announced Candi-
dates to Be Voted for at Barre
Caucus Tonight

Unless there is a decided change be-
tween the time Of going to press and 80
this evening, the city caucus to nominate
candidates to be voted for at the forth
coming municipal election win be a very
mild affair Never in the political his
tory Of Barre has there been as little
talk about candidates and about city af-
fairs as during the present pre-eaucus
period, the voters being remarkably
apathetie. ...
The only person who has announced
that he would accept the nomination for
mayor is the present eneumbent, L. c.
Glysson, who is completing his second
term as the city's executive. Mayor
Glysson has recently expressed himself
as a receptive candidate providing the
voters care to have him serve another
term, So it is up to the voters to say
tonight whether he is to be the caucus
nominee. There are the usual hints about
dark candidates.
II is understood that the meeting
called by some of the labor men last
night to consider city politics did not
come to any decision ON the matter and
the labor men will not it is expected
follow any concerted plan in the caucus
tonight,
Besides nominating a candidate for
mayor, the caucus will be called upon to
I'll the municipal ballot with names of
those who are candidates for city clerk,
city treasurer, first constable, second con
stable, three directors of French's Barre
library. three auditors TO serve for one
year and one assessor to serve for three
years.
1t goes without saying that James
Mackay will be renominated for the po-
sitions of city clerk and city treasurer.
No decided opposition has developed to
First Constable George l., Morris, and. if
the usual precedent is followed. the nom
nation for second constable will be more
or less of a football. The directors of
Frenchs Barre library are likely to be
renominsted if they care to run. The
entie auditors board will have to be re-
nominated The auditors are William
Stephen, d. J. Sullivan and John T.
Averill 1t is understood that the first
two are candidates, but Mr. Averill
wishes it stated that he will not be a
candidate.
The retiring assessor is Augustus NJ.
Rossi Mr. Rossi has made no public
statement whether he would be candi-
date or not.

DEFINING SERVICE"
Does 1t Mean Fighting or Going into
Training?

Bridgeport, Conn, Feb. l3.-The ques-
tion Of what the word serving" meant
in the naturalization law, as regards a
discharged United States soldier, came
up before Judge Greene in the superior
court to-day, when Lajos Deutseh, born
in Hungary, who was drafted, applied
for naturalization.
Examiner Church read the law bearing
on the case and declared that there was
no precedent in New England on which
TO base decision as 10 whether a sol
dier who had been in camp for training
had rendered service" within the mean
ing of the term, or whether the word
serving meant to fight, and would thus
be entitled to naturalization without
regular preliminaries.
Judge Greene ordered the case put over
until May in order to get further rulings
on the subject.
