There is no present prospect of peace in Europe through diplomacy. President Wilson himself set at rest lumors that peace measures were in the making by revealing that no intimation had been conveyed to him officially from any quarter of a readi on the part of belligerents to talk peace. The recent developments emphasized that Great Britain, France and Russia were determined to make no peace until they had decisively beaten Germany and Austria. Great BritCijp's position was explained in detail t London by Sir Edward Grey to Ambassador Page, who made a long report to President Wilson. The British Foreign Secretary declared England had not sought war, but since it was forced on her she was irrevocably bent on crushing forever the ^dangers of German militarism. < Sir Edward referred also to the spolirtion by Germans of the neutrality o\ Belgium and pointed out that the Allies would expect redress for that action. The conference between the American Ambassador and the British For'y^ign Secretary is said to have occur' red on the initiative of the latter. Sir Edward Grey, it is understood, explained that in view of the newspaper rumor> that Germany was ready to make peace Great Britain did not not want to appear in the light of blocking the move while Emperor William J?isumed the role of neace advocate. To make peace now while German troops, hold Belgium and a large part of France, might cause Germany tc exact unreasonable terms according to the British view. " I On the side of Germany and Aus likewise, the President has founc no encouraging sign for peace. Asket whether Emperor William's message . \ The Ci SEPTI FC BHHSEE381 i i is Tobacco W f. FULLERTON, Pr The I Bl was susceptible of interpretation as a peace overture, the President said it J protested merely against the alleged use of dum-dum bullets by the French and the activity of Belgian citizenry in the war. S Mr. Wilson said he would reply soon to the Emperor's message. The answer may be merely a courteous acknowledgment of the German Emper- P or's message, or it may be the expression of the hope that the rules of war fare laid down by The Hague Conventions will be binding on all betliger- C ents. The answer may refer to the ation. Observers in close, touch with the White House thought the first course to be the most likely, merely acknow- ^ lodging the message. It was said the feeling was general among oflicials that the present time was not the time to press for peace with propects of success. "We haven't gotten to the point," j said Secretary Bryan in response to a question, "where we can take up the subject of mediation." "Everyone wants p^ace." remarked ^ Ambassador Jusserand, of France, as he was leaving the State Department "but now it is war." The Ambassador said that as a result of the protest of Emperor William he had been authorized to inform President Wilson that no bullets, what soever, not approved by The Hague v Conferences either have been used by c the French soldiers or would be used C in spite of any provocation. In the midst of the diplomatic chaos p in Europe, Great Britain, France, a Spain and China, it became known ^ have agreed with the United States ? on the text of treaties to be signed in a few days. They provide for the investigation by a commission for a period of one year or more of all in- f ternation^l disputes that may arise q between these countries and the Unit- p ed States. One effect of the signing of the treaties would be to prevent ^ country from being suddenly drawn into the European war over neutrality * questions or other unexpected difficulties. Opposed the Bill. J Senator Overman and practically 8 ever member of the House from North j ? Carolina will oppose that section of r ' the war revenue bill which would f > place a tax on freight. Representa- f ' tive Doughton last Saturday person- t ally conducted a campaign against f - this method of raising revenue and r 1 circulated a petition calling for a I 1 Democratic caucus to decide whether |j > a majority of his party favors the bill.
