Terms under which the Teutonic

made known to the Russian delegates I
engaged in the peace pourparlevs at i
Brest-Litovsk. Tb? terms have been 1:
set fcr-h in an address by Count Czer- i

minister. t
As in previous Teutonic allied intl*

the Germanic viewpoint, to brinr? i]
about a cessation of hostilities and 0
eventual peace, the latest terms n?v a
hedged about by conditions v/h?"1!
seemingly are insupcraMe f.-oin tLj p
standpoint of the United States and e
the entente allies. {;
The basic principles of the peace g
terms of the Russian revolutionary n
masses?no annexations and no in- g
demnities?Count Czernin said he be
lieved could be made the basis of a t
general peace, but that the Teutonic t
allies could not bind themselves to
these conditions unless a guarantee
were given that Russia's allies would
f
recognize and fulfill them.
Notable omissions in the statement ?
of Count Czernin connected with the
concrete demands of the United r
States, ureat Britain ana r ranee, as
already made known, are the qucs- a
t.ions particularly of the rebuilding of a
Belgium and Serbia, the return of T
A.Isace and Lorraine to France and c
the overthrow of the militarist gov- a
ernment in Germany and the forma
tion in its place of a government that t
can be believed?the latter demand as a
set forth by President Wilson in his p
j address to Congress calling for war t
; with Austria-Hungary. c
Pending the placing of Count Czer- s
nin's proposals before Russia's allies,
the Russian delegates to the peace r
conference have asked for a 10 days' (
recess in the negotiations at Brest
Litovsk.
WALL STREET APPROVES ;
GOVERNMENT'S PLAN 1
o
c.
I
Sw?ep:r,g Advance in Securities Mar- \
ket Follows Announcement. C
New York.?Wall Street exressed i
unqualified indorsement 'of president
Wilson's plan for the government to
run the railroads by a sweeping ad- t
vance in the securities market. The
upturn was one of the most sensa- s
tional in years. The assurances of
I net earnings and of the maintenance t
of railroad properties were the factors a
of the government program which t
| pleased investors s,nd dealers in ]
'stocks and bonds. .
| The pessimism over the railroad
j outlook gave way to enthusiasm when
the rather unexpected news from
! Washington was read. Orders to buy
, poured into broker's offices from all
over the country, and the market was
primed for a big advance long before
! it opened.
j Railroad shares, esptciallv those,
i under greatest depression in the wide
spread decline of recent months ,re
corded extreme gains of 5 to ten
At-- fJ-mm 19 t
points m cne rejji cacnuou?o 6iuuj/,
to 18 points in the less active divi
! dend issues and 3 to 13 points in nu
merons non-dividend stocks.
The bond market for rails kept pace
| with the movement on stocks, various
: underlying or junior issues advancing
3 to 8 1-2 points.
i Industrials and the many related
' stocks which figure in daily market
dealings were ignored in the first up
swing of prices, but were taken up
vigorously later on the theory that
every line of trade will be stimulated
by the upbuilding of the railroads.
MISPLACING OF CASS : ^
| CAUSE COAL SHORTAGE
i l
!
i Washington. ? President Wilson's
decision to take over the railroads will ^
keep the senate coal inquiry within
narrower limits than originally plan
ned. Members of the manufacturer's *
committee, investigating both coal r
and sugar, are disinclined to go into i
the transportation difficulties, now j
that they believe improvement is in
sight, and in the hearing touched only C
casually upon the lack of railroad fa- t
cflities blamed for coal shortage.
BROTHERHOOD'S BEHIND
GOVERNMENT'S PLANS
Washington.?Heads of the four
railroad brotherhoods conferred with
President Wilson, discussing in de
tail the part the employes will play
cftvorTirnpnt tp fni 1st inns A. B.
Garretson, of the conductors, said af
terward that wage increases were not
mentioned. Mr. Gnrretson added that

oads for the war *as proclaimed by
'resident Wilson and became eftect
ve at noon Friday. December 28. Wil
iam G. McAdoo, retaining his place
n the cabinet as secretary of the ]
reasury, is plac d in charge as direc
or general of railroads.
Every railroad engaged in general
ransportation, with ite appurtenances
ticluding steamship lines, i3 taken
ver and all systems will be operated c
s one under the director general.
In a statement accompanying his n
roclamation, the president announc- j,
d that as soon as congress reassem- -u
iles he will recommend legislation
;uaranteeing pre-war earnings ana ^
aaintenance of railroad property in
ood repair.
Government backing will be given
o new issues of railroad securities ^
hat a ready market may be' found.
Great Surprise.
The president's move, although
orecast for weeks, came at this time ^
,s a great surprise to nearly every- n
;ody in Washington, including rail- A
oau officials. It had been generally
telieved that he would await the re
ssembling of congress before taking
ir.y step. He acted through Secre- ^
ary of War Baker, under authority
onferred in the army appropriation 1
,ct.
Management of the roads will re
aain in the hands of railroad officials
md the railroads' war board, com
prised of five railroad heads, will con
inue to direct actual operation under
>ecretary McAdoo's general supervi
ion.
The chief practical effect of govern
nent operation will be to permit a
omplete unification of all rail svs
ems, impossible under private opera
ion by reason of statutes prohibiting
>ooling of rail traffic and earnings,
."he reads themselves had gone as far
s they diired in this direction, and it
>ecame known only that they had
>een warned by Attorney Genera]
Jreeory that a violation of anti-pool
ng laws could not be permitted.
Interurbans Exceptd.
Although the proclamation applies
o all electric lines engaged in gen
eral transportation, local interurban
ystems are specifically exempted.
Congress will be asked to guaran
ee earnings equivalent to the aver
ige net operating income for the
hree-year period ending June 30, m7.1
lailroad experts estimate that this
rill cost the government next year j.
n the neighborhood of $100,000,000, ij
vhich can be raised in large part by!e
ncreased freights, if the interstate P
sommerce commission grants the i
oads' application for the 15 per cent. 1
ate increase now pending. Otherwise t
I will be paid largely out of the gen-; t
iral government funds. I 0
The interstate commerce commis-!
sion and other government agencies! ^
vhich have to do with the railroads
vill continue to perform their func-i
Ions as heretofore, except that they i(
vill be subject to orders of the direc-1 0
or of railroads. I *
Railroads Not Blamed. iC
The president makes it clear that! a
lis decision was not made because of e
my failure on tne pan 01 me ran
oads to perform their whole luty in
so far as they could while hampered
is they were by legal restrictions.
The plan of control as outlined in
:he proclamation and statemeat
leaves much unsaid as to details, but |
:he general scheme appears to follow
losely the British system.
