Huns Hurried to
Ask Arrnistice
Lost No Time in Avoiding At
tack Of 100000 French
Planned for Nov. IL.

PARIS, Jan. 6.--Germany hurried
to request the armistice when she
saw new allied offensive was to be
launched on the Lorraine front on
November IL by 100000 men, un-
der command Of General De Castel-
nau, says the Excelsior.
America nand French troops, it
says, were concentrated on the front
between Briey and Chateau Salins.
They were supported BY three thou
sand guns Of all calbres and had three
hundred tanks available on a front
of about 5 miles. Duke AIbrecht Of
Wurttemberg, the German command
er on this front, had available only
25 divisions of inferior fighting quail
ity. These divisions contained APP
proximately 100000 men. He had
only one thousand guns.
This allied attack, the Excelsior
continues, would have carried the
war into annexed Lorraine and into
Rhenish Prussia, threatening to ciit
off the German army In Belgium and
in the Ardennes from it's base
German general headquarters, re-
alizing that the divisions on other sec
tors were exhausted and that its
forces wre demoralized and worn ont
ayerted catastrophe by pleading
for an armistice.

Colonel Roosevelt was sixty years OF age and
was the tWenty-siXth> president OF the United
States The death on a>French battlefield OF his
son, Lieut. Quentin Roosevelt, is believed to have
hastened the death of the Colonel He had but
recently planned trip to Europe to visit his sons
grave.
Colonel Roosevelt suffered an attack of rheu-
matism on New Years day and had since more or
less been confined to his room. The attack OF
rheumatism settled mainly in the Colonel's right
hand. His condition at first did not seem to be
alarming and turn for the worse is believed not
to have come until last night.
The life of the former president is one OF the
most brilliant chapters of American history.
Loved and admired, in some quarters he suffered
however in acquiring the enmity of many prom
inent men and his later life was filled with strife
10 none hand and preparations for even more
strenuous life on the other.
Colonel Roosevelt's war record was full oil
patriotic movements His opposition to the dem
ocratic administration in its conduct Of the war
was also marked At the optbreak of hostilities
he wanted to raise a division of soldiers and head
it in France, but his offer was refused.
Colonel Roosevelt spent Sunday evening reading and conver
ing with Mrs Roosevelt and chatting with Dr. Faller who
found him apparently much improved from his attack of rheu
masm and in excellent spirits He also dictated number
of letters despite his return from the hospital where ne
was confined weeks by attack of catca with painful
complications He had much ohs old vgor midnight when
he retired Mrs Roosevelt sat with him for little while then
