HORSE BURNT ON EVE OF RACE

Baltimore, Oct. 23.-Upon the stage
when stories of the turf are enacted,
there usually is heavy man who
"dopes" the favorites for financial
gain or spite, but not SO often do such
cases ccme to light on real race tracks
Just now Capt. Raj Parr is search
ing for the person who put his horse,
Esquimau, out of commission.
Early yesterday it was discovered
by his trainer, Billy Garrth, that SOME
one had entered the stall of this
promising three-year-old at Laurel
and poured some sort Of blistering
liquid upon the left legs ST the ump-
er, thereby rendering him useless as a
racer for several weeks at least, and
perhaps for the remainder of the sea-
son.

PEACE TERMS To
BE READY WHEN

FROM THIS SIDE
Meeting Of Council of Great
Powers Decide Upon Speed

ant Meeting Saturday,
COMMITTEE REPORTS
WITHIN TWO WEEKS
House and BaIfour Call on
CIenenceau and Find. the
Wounded Statesman Full
Dressed and KeenIy Alert,

Paris. Saturday, Feb. %, (by The
Associated Press )-Results of far
reaching character were obtained at
the meeting of the council of the
great powers today when resolutions
were adopted requiring such speed
ing up of all work of the peace con-
ference as to permit the formation of
a preliminary peace treaty by the
time President Wilson returns to
Paris in the middle of March. To ac-
complish this all commissions deal
ing with the big questions of repara-
TONS boundaries and economic and
financial issues must report to- the
supreme council within the next two
weeks or by March eighth at the lat
est. These reports, in turn, will form
a basis for the drafting of the treaty.
Clemenccau kccniy Alert.
An extensive program had been
carefully matured within the past
few days and it was brought into cul-
mination this afternoon when A. j.
Balfour the British foreign secretary
and Colonel r. NJ, House of the Amer
lean delegation, called on Premier
Clemenceau. Each found the wound
ed statesman dressed and sitting up
and keenly alert and fully agreed on
the plan for rapid acceleration of
work.
This brought together, the British
American and French viewpoints for
a rapid course of action assuring the
earliest possible peace.
Shortly afterward the supreme
council met and ratified the pro-
gram, both non-military and military
in the preliminary peace soon to be
framed and to have this broad gem
eral document take the place of a
separate military treatment for dis
armament which had been prepared
by the supreme war council under
the direction of Marshal Foch who
was to present it within the next few
days.
1t will be this broad general plan
which will be drafted by the time the
president returns and which will soon
thereafter go before the peace con-
ference.
The foregoing action relates only
to Germany, as the conclusion of this
preliminary peace treaty is regarded
as of chief Importance. But similar
action may proceed at the same time
concerning Austria, Bulgaria and
Turkey.
Although the proposed document
is designated rs a preliminary peace
treaty If is expected to embody vir-
tually all main questions.
