ENTENTE EXPECTS
CRUSHING VICTORY
London Newspapers Busy
Discussing Czar's Refusal
to Discuss Peace.
FINAL TERMS OUTLINED
Alsace-Lorraine, Colonies and Con
quered Territory and Indem
nity Demanded Her Allies
, to Meet Fnrtlier Minimum.
lONDOX, Dec. 28. The official order
Issued by Emperor Nicholas statins
that the time has not arrived for peace
negotiations takes the leading place
today in both the news and editorial
sections of the evening newspapers.
Some of them suggest the other mem
bers of the entente should follow the
lead of Russia and state their terms.
The Standard says:
"It is now quite time that bellig
erents and neutrals understood the true
situation. The allies believe they can
Inflict shortly a crushing military de
feat on Germany. She will then be
offered peace on the lines of restitu
tion of Alsace-Lorraine, relinquish
ment of her spoils, the loss of her
colonies and the payment of suitable
indemnities, while her allies will have
to meet the minimum demands of Rus
sia and Italy."
The Westminster Gazette expresses
the hope that the allies will reply fully
and adequately to President Wilson's
note, saying:
"Meanwhile the German press con
tinues to enlarge on the olive branch.
The Vossische Zeltung tells Russia that
the question of the Dardenelles can be
solved satisfactorily without further
fighting and promises that the Ger
mans will yield as far as they can with
out endangering their future. If the
internal situation of the central powers,
and their prospects in men and muni
tions are what we suppose, we shall
pet on from point to point until we
reach the stage where ou:r necessary
aims become realizable."
OFFICIAL TEXT OF GERMAN REPLIES TO UNITED STATES
AND SWITZERLAND ON SUBJECT OF PEACE TERMS.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 28. The official text of Germany's reply to
the United State on the subject ot peace terms differs somewhat in
phraseology from the unofficial. It is as follows:
"The imperial government has accepted and considered in the
friendly spirit which is apparent in the communication of the President
the noble initiative of the President looking to the creation of bases
for the foundation of a lasting peace.
"The President discloses the aim which lies next to his heart and
leaves the choicest way open.
"A direct exchange of views appears to the imperial government
as the most suitable way of arriving at the desired result. The impe
rial government has the honor, therefore, in the sense of its declaration
of the 12th instant, which offered the hand for peace negotiations,
to propose speedy assembly on neutral ground of delegates of the
warring states.
"It le also the view of the imperial government that the great work
for the prevention of future wars can first be taken up only after the
ending of the present conflict of exhaustion. The imperial government
Is ready when this point has been reached to co-operate with the
United States in this sublime task."
TEXT OF REPLY TO SWITZERLAND.
BERLIN. via Amsterdam and London, Dec. 28. The text of the
answer of Germany to the Swiss note reads:
"The imperial government has taken note of the fact that the Swiss
Federal Council, as the result of Its having placed itself In communi
cation with the President of the United States, is also ready to take
action and side with the United States toward bringing about an
understanding between the belligerent nations and towards the attain
ment of a lasting peace.
"The spirit of true humanity whereby the steps of the Swiss Federal
Council are inspired is fully appreciated and esteemed by the imperial
government.
"The imperial government has informed the President of the United
States that a direct exchange of views seems to it to be the most
suitable means of obtaining the desired result.
"Led by the same considerations which caused Germany, on Decem
ber 12, to offer her haftd for peace negotiations, the government has
proposed an Immediate meeting of all the belligerents at a neutral
place.
"In agreement with the President of the United States, the govern
ment is of he opinton that the great work of preventing future wars
can only be taken In hand after the present world war has terminated.
So soon as that moment comes, they will joyfully be ready to co-operate
In this sublime task.
"If Switzerland, which, faithful to its noble traditions in mitigating
the sufferings caused by the present war, has won unending gratitude,
will also contribute to safeguarding the world's peace, the German
nation and government will highly welcome such action."

Have Been Inflicted on
Teutonic Invaders.
BRITISH CARS TO RESCUE
AUSTRIA'S REPLY IS RECEIVED
Germany's Ally Prefers Direct Nego
tiations as to Peace.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 28. Austria's
reply to President Wilson's peace note
was received late today. It is under
stood to be substantially the same as
Germany's.
The text of the note, sent through
Ambassador Penfield, follows:
"Aide Memoire. In reply to the aide
memoire communicated on the 22d In
stant by His Excellency, the American
Ambassador, containing the proposals
of the President of the United States of
America for an exchange of views
among the powers at present at war for
the eventual establishment of peace,
the imperial and royal government cre
sires particularly to point out that, in
considering the noble proposal of tho
President, it is guided by the same
spirit of amity and complaisance as
finds expression therein.
"The President desires to establish
a basis for a lasting peace without
wishing to indicate the ways and
means. The imperial and royal govern
ment considers a direct exchange of
views among the belligerents to be the
most suitable way of attaining this end.
Adverting to Its declaration of the 12th
instant, in which it announced its read
iness to enter Into peace negotiations, it
now has the honor to propose that rep
resentativee of the belligerent powers
convene at an early date at some place
on neutral ground.
"The imperial and royal government
likewise concurs in the opinion of the
President that only after the termina
tion of the present war will It be possi
ble to undertake the great and desir
able work of the prevention of future
vaB. At an appropriate time it will
be willing to co-operate with the United
States of America for the realization of
this noble aim."

March, Says Army Director.
TERLIN records fresh advances
J3 the Teutonic allies against the
Russians and Roumanians in Walla
chia. The invaders now are advanc
ing toward Fokshani. Three thou
sand more prisoners and 22 machine
guns have been captured by the in
vaders, bringing the number of men
taken in the Kimnik-Sarat maneuver
up to 10,220.
Although Berlin reports that the
Teutonic allies in Dobrudja are keep
ing up their pressure against the Rus
sians and Roumanians and have
forced the Russians from for
tified height positions east of
Matchin, on the east bank of
the Danube, opposite Braila, Petro
grad announces that the invaders
i-outh of the Danube have been re
pulsed with heavy losses, except at tho
village of Rakel, which has been oc
cupied by them. British armed motor
cars, says Petrograd, did great ex
ecution in this fighting.
LONDON. Dec 28. The continuation
of the British offensive along the
Somme front Is impossible as long as
the present weather lasts, Major-Gen-eral
Frederick B. Maurice, chief direct
or of military operations at the War
Office, so informed the Associated
Press today.
"I told you some time ago," he said,
"that our, offensive would not cease
during the Winter, but it must be ap
parent, from the daily reports, that no
real battle has been offered in that
sector since October. In the first
place, we understimated the effect, of
the shelling on the terrain. The coun
try over which the advance will have
to be made is thickly sprinkled with
shell holes filled with water.
Fog Hum Been Underestimated.
"Also, never having held the same
line in any other Winter, we under
estimated the effect of the fog in the
valley of the Somme.
"There have been frequent frosts,
not severe enough to harden the
ground, but sufficient to form fogs,
making artillery observation fire prac
tically useless and also preventing the
drying of the ground.
"The French arrived at the same de
cision and transferred their attention to
Verdun, with results which you know.
We may be able to resume in March, as
we found the ground at Nueve Chapelle
in fairly good shape In March, 1915,
although it had been very bad during
the Winter.
French Front Taken Over.
"Unable to continue the offensive for
the present, we have done the next
best thing. The taking over of a sec
tion of the French line has kept us
busy during the last 10 days. The
operation has been successful and I
will be glad to tell you the exact ex
tent of the line taken over when I am
for I sure the Germans know the point of
junction.
"In Roumania the First Roumanian
Army, which has borne tin brunt of the
fighting, l as been entirely withdrawn
and now Is reforming in Moldavia,
while its place has been taken by the
Russians. In Dobrudja the line has
been moved back in alignment with the
battle front north of the Danube. In
this region both our allies and the
enemy are suffering from adverse
weather conditions."
Chenoy has been dispersed by -our fire.
On the left bank of the Meuse we
repulsed a surprise attack of the
euemy directed against the eastern
slopes of Hill 304.
"It has been confirmed that Lieuten
ant Herteaux brought down on Decem
ber 26 his 15th enemy airplane. On
the same day Sub-Lieutenant Guynemer
brought down his 24th airplane, and
on December 27 he vanquished his 25th
air enemy. Another German machine,
after engaging in combat with one of
our pilots yesterday, crashed to the
earth near Omtecourt."
Tonight's supplementary statement
says :
"On the left bank of the Meuse dur
ing the day the-'enemy artillery, ener
getically count--shelled by us, vio
lently bombarded our positions on the
front of Le Mort Homme and Hill 304.
"In Lorraine we carried out a sur
prise attack on a trench north of Ba
donviller, taking two machine guns.
The cannonade was intermittent on the
rest of the front."
Belgian communication "Reciprocal
bombardments took place this after
noon in the regions of Dlxmude and
Het-Sas
Considerable fighting has again
taken place on the Verdun sector
around Le Morte Homme and on the
eastern slopes of hill 304, where the
Germans made an attack, but were re
pulsed, and where later the French
began a bombardment of the German
positions.
Elsewhere along the French front
there have been reciprocal bombard
ments and attacks by small patrol
parties, interspersed with fights In
the air and aerial raids by French,
British and German aviators. In th
encounters in the air each side is re
ported to have lost machines.
