WILSON WILL DECLINE

that the peace treaty not be ratified
now, but be left to a referendum on
the American people in the presiden-
tial campaign, was expressed as re-
Gently as last Thursday in letters he
addressed to Senator Hitchcock. of
Nebraska, the administration leader
and Senator Glass, of Virginia, it
was learned on high authority to-
day.
The president was credited with
hav ing made it plain in the letters
that rather than yield one iota in his
long standing opposition TO the
Lodge reservation to Article y he
would refuse TO deposit the treaty
at Paris in case IL were ratified with
that reservation.
Senator Hitchcock denied he had
received such a letter He was en-
phatic in stating that Senator Glass
had not received one.
In fiat contradiction o. Hitchcock s
denial there came a statement from
a source close to the White House
that both Hitchcock and Glass had
received the letters In question. II
was predicted that the letters would
be made public, either by the White
House or. the senators, in the near
future.
The mystery was dcepened by
Hitchcock's admission that Glass had

Washington Dispatch to Lon
don May Have Broken Up
Fiume Negotiations.
U. S. CAPITAL SURPRISED
President Now Expected to
Accept Allied Premiers'
Adriatic Plan.

Washington, March IA. P.)--
News from London that negotiations
between the premiers of Italy and
Jugo- -SlaVia for a direct settlement
OF the Adrlatie question had come
to sudden end caused surprise tere.
No official explanation has been
received, but it is understood that
the ending of the negotiations re-
suited from the publication in Lon
don newspapers of a special Wash
ington dispatch saying that Presi-
dent Wilson would reject the invi-
tation of the British and French pre-
nlers that he join them in inviting
Italy and Jugo- -SlaviI to begin nego-
tiations looking to a settlement.
The presidents reply to the Brit
ish and French premiers is now be-
ing prepared, but there has been no
intimation as to what it will be. In
view of his previous statement to
the premiers, however, that he would
accept any settlement made by Italy
and Jugo-SlaVia which did not sac
rifice the interests of the nationals
OF third power some officials ex-
pect that he will accept the pre-
miers' invitation.
The reply was sent to the state
department to be put into diplomatic
form. 1t will then be returned to
the White House for the presidents
final approval. after which it will be
dispatched.

LODGE SCORES

STEAMER BOHEMIAN
BREAKS in TWO, SINKS

Halifax, n. s., March q
The steamship Bohemian,
which struck on Sambro
lodges yesterday while bound
from Boston to Liverpool,
broke in two and sank today,
according to a report received
here from Citadel signal sta
ton.
The message stated that the
ship had been abandoned, so
it is assumed that the 100
members of the crew were
taken off in safety. The ship
was 200 feet from shore.
Seven lives are believed to
have been lost when the crew
of the Bohemian abandoned
their ship as she was breaking
up on the Sambro lodges. Sew
eral others were injured.
Sixty-four passengers were
taken off in safety in the
morning, but most of the 1870
members of the crew re-
mained on board all day.

WOULD FREE EUROPE OF

Closer Commercial Relations
Allies and Germany
Discussed.

London, March 2.-Freeing Europe
from its dependence upon the United
States for food supplies and closer
commercial relations between allied
Europe and Germany were under
stood this afternoon to be two of the
broad principles upon which the su-
preme council Council of premiers)
is conducting its discussions upon
the acute international economic sit
uation.
AS European solidarity is the only
answer to this problem, the allies de-
bated the widening of trade channels
towards Russia and the granting OF
economic encouragement to Ger
many.
Premier Nitti, of Italy, is reported
to have taken the lead in both the
movement for closer relations with
Russia and the proposal for more
intimate trade intercourse with
Germany. The Italian argument was
that such steps were made necessary
by the fact that the United States is
standing out"
In vieY of the aloofness of America
the proposal was made to throw
overheard the idea of holding down
German trade. In this same connec-
tion it was strongly suggested that
the allies allocate to German indus
try its quota of necessary supplies.

County Tax Assessor Randolph
Howell failed to qualify Monday as

qualifying as fixed by the primary
committee was u o'clock March l,
and as Mr.. Howell qualified with
neither Chairman L. Pope Shepherd,
of the democratic executive commit

committee. Mr.. Howell had no DEM

thing was done it would be an ex-

move like this would make candi-

to qualifying rules for county offices
and would hurt the democratic party
badly. 1t is not known what Mr..

Another candidate who almost
failed to qualify was Charley Taylor,
who will make the race for con-

Taylor qualified exactly at IL o'clock.
A few minutes afterwards Tom Per-
rim called and asked If Mr.. Taylor
had qualified and if he had not he
wanted to qualify himself, but he did
not care to make the race against
Mr.. Taylor All other candidates for
offices qualified, Phil Whitaker and
Tom Schneider paying their entrance
fees of $3.50 as capdidates for trus-
tee, and Nick Bush, Billy Smith and
S. M. Hudlow paying the same
amounts to run for sheriff.
The regular entrance fee was orig
inally $3.50. but it was ruled that the
expenses of the primary would have
to be borne by the candidates and
each of them cheerfully agreed to
pay another 500 which was taxed
them.
