Bolslleviki to Discuss
Peace With Esthonians
Negotiations to Begin al Pskov
Wednesday; Offer 10 Recog-
Mise Independence

LONDON, Sept. 7-Peacc negotja-
tions between the Esthonan and Boil
shevik governments will begin at
Pskov Wednesday next, according to a
Moscow wireless message
The Bolshevik ENJOYS at Reval, says
the Helsingfors correspondent Of The
Daily Mail,' have offered to recognize
Esthonian independence and the in
volatility of racial boundaries, and re-
store Esthonian property But it is
stipulated that Esthonia shall not be-
come base for the enemies of the
Bolsheviki
The British authorities have insisted
that negotiations shall not be held in
Esthonia, this with view to prevent
ing the Bolshevik delegates from con-
Quoting propaganda. The decision to
enter into negotiations, it is under
stood, was prompted partly by distrust
of the army, and also, according to the
wireless message, by the protests of the
Esthonian workers against continuance
of the war

have dwindled from 1882 in 1904 to
247 this year.

vestigation Of the charges brought by
DR.. Karl Hefferich, the former Vice
Chancellor, against Matthias Erzberger,

Plot to Kill
Gen. CarranZa
Is Discounted
Announcement by Mexican
Staff Chief Looked Upon
in Washington as Move
for Peoples Support
Government Weakening
Warming of Intervention
by U. S. Is Old Trick
to Unite Rival Factions

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7-Anncuncc-
ment in Mexico City newspapers that
General Juan Barragan, Mexican chief
Of staff, had discovered a plot to as
sassinate President Carranza is be-
lieved by officials here to be another
part of the movement by the inner
circle of Carranza's office holders to
win support for their chief among the
Mexican people. There have been
many evidences in the last few weeks
Of Carranza's weakening power, it is
said in some quarters here, and re-
Gently Luis CABRERA, Secretary of the
Treasury, and General Barragan have
been particularly active in their eff
forts to maintain Carranza's strength.
Stories of the imminencc Of American
Intervention and Of plots against Car
rama have been carefully circulated
throughout Mexico, it is said, with a
view to impeling the Mexican people
to rally to the support Of the govern
ment.
The text of General Barragan's
latest alleged discovery Of conspiracy
follows:
Conformation has been received in
the presidency that a high official of
Ine TleCtIIC LlRnt company OIL OIIZdUd
has left, or will shortly leave, for Eng
land, on behalf Of the reactionarles
and trusts, bearing documents against
the Mexican government in order to
bring pressure from the Allies toward
Intervention by the United States. In
the event Of failure in this, attempts
will be made on the life of President
Carranza with a view to bringing about
anarchy in Mexico which shall deter
mine the action of the American gov
ernment toward intervention"
1t is pointed out in official circles here
that if General Barragan knew of any
such conspiracy he would be able to
bring the conspirators quickly to book.
The danger Of intervention has been in
the past an adequate means of sup
pressing factional troubles in Mexico
and of uniting the people Of the coun-
try behind the Chief Executive, one
official to-day asserted, and pointed to
the days of Portirio Diaz when periodi-
cally his countrymen were warned of

Philippine ENJOYS
Read independence
In Wilson's Speech
Assertion That League Will
Simplify Question Taken
as Forecast of Intention
to Give Islands Freedom
Nc1n Fork Tribune
Wdshin JtOn Bureau


WASHINGTON, Sept 7.-President
Wilson's statement at Kansas City that
the league Of nations would simplify
the Philippine question was taken to-
night by representa- tives of the Philip
pine independence mission here to in
dicate that victory for the President in
his league fight was almost sure to
mean the granting of Philippine indie
pendence, already promised by Mr.
Wilson.
I'VE had begun to think the Pres-
dent had forgotten u.s." said Conrado
Benitez, representative of the Philip
pine press bureau. But his Kansas
City speech is the finest sort Of en-
cOuragcment."
Manuel Zucaon and other members
of the independence mission, which was
in this country last spring, are ex-
pected now to return to this country
from Manila in November to press the
case of independence.
THAT part of his speech concerning
the external security of the Philippines
in case independence is granted her is
OF paramount significance to u.s." said
Jamie c. de Ney, resident commis sone1
from the Philippines. "From our point
of view as Filipinos we would accept
willingly any responsibility incidental
to our independence. We have asked
for independence irrespective of
whether there will or will not be a
league of nations. Who can doubt that
with such league our problem would
be simpliicd?
"The Presidents reference to Phil
ippine independence under the league
is his way of getting rid of a difficult
subject" declared Senator Harding, of
Ohio, chairman of the Senate Commit
tee on the Philippines. "He knows
that to give them freedom now would
be to haul down our flag and hoist the
international flag
"Whcn the Philippine mission were
here and we're asked if they wanted
independence under the league of ma
tions they said: NO, we want indepen-
dence. | don't think the league woulc
give them half the satisfaction they
enjoy under our protection.
"ln his disappointment over the
Washington situation the President is
talking more freely to the people thar
to the Senate, which is the treaty max
ing power"
Senator Mclean, of Connecticut, de
cared the question Of granting Philip
pine independence was yet matter
to be debated and to be considered
only after the latest evidence regard
ing Philippine conditions is examined
| by Congress.
