THE period of - comparative calm
which has existed on all the battle
fronts for some time except in Rou
mania, continues. In no theater aside
from Roumania has an apparent en
gagement taken place, the activity
everywhere being carried out by means
of the artillery and by small patrol
parties.
In Roumania the Teutonic allies have
gained another considerable success in
the capture of Northern Dobrudja of
the towns of Matchin and Jijili, on the
eastern bank of the Danube, opposite
the Important town of Braila, forcing
the Russians to a point Just south of
the Danube, where the river bends and
separates Dobrudja from Bessarabia.
In Moldavia and Northern Wallachla
the invaders are keeping up their
gains both northward and eastward
from the Transylvania Alps region. At
several points in the center of the
lines in Northern Wallachia. however,
the Russians and Roumanians are
tenaciously fighting to hold them back
and, according to Petrograd, in the
region "southwest of Focsani and near
the RiverRtmnik, the Teutonic allie
were defeated, the defenders taking
several villages and capturing six offi
cers, 205 men, five cannon and eight
machine guns.
' On the western front lively artillery
duels are In progress in Belgium and
on several sectors in the region ' of
Verdun. On the Austro-Itallan front
bombardments alone have taken place.
There is still no news concerning the
operations in Macedonia.
A wireless report from Berlin credit

that a German submarine has
torpedoed and badly damaged near
Malta the French battleship Verite, is
declared by the French Ministry of

it the Legislature so wills. -
It has been a custom lor the Treas
urer to make advances on assignments
of salaries on his own responsibility
and take a chance on the Legislature
making appropriations to cover the
amounts.
The situation this year, however.
presents a little different aspect. There
is considerable talk of . consolidation
of boards and commissions, and with
this talk going the rounds an element
of uncertainty exists as to Just which
of these boards and commissions will
be in existence after the Legislature
finishes.
If it is found that some of the com-
missions have been abolished, then
some of those employed on the com
missions will have been workinar for
two or tnree months with no appropria
tions made lor their pay. It is con
sidered unlikely, however, that the
Legislature will let such employes
down without remuneration. At least
that is the view which is taken by
all of those now employed, and they
are not expressing much concern over
the possibility of their being cut off
without a penny. ,
The general fund today totaled about
$1,320,000. This will be "cut down ma

WASHINGTON. Jan. 3. Coinci
dent with the receipt here today
of confidential advices giving the broad
outlines of the entente reply to Presi
dent Wilson's note proposing a" discus
sion of peace, terms. Colonel E- M.
House, the President's friend and ad
viser,' arrived at the White House. The
Colonel's last visit was followed by
the dispatch of the President's note.
At. the same time press dispatches
from London told of a speech by Count
Julius Andrassy. ex-Premier of Hun
gary, stating that "the central powers
had given, or would give. President
Wilson a statement of their peace
terms, and that the entente allies could
obtain them from him.
Officials at the White House and the
State Department would not discuss
these developments further than to say
definitely that no further move on the
part of the American Government
ould be determined until the entente
reply was received. It was said that
the President still has his mind open
on the question.
. Extreme Secrecy Observed.
It was not disclosed whether the Ad
ministration considers that the unfa
vorable action of the entente has left
the way open for the confidential ex
change of terms between the opposing
groups of nations. In view of the deli
cate nature of the negotiations extreme
secrecy is being observed by, the few
officials in close touch with, the situa
tion.
Both in Germany and .entente circles
pessimism over the outlook was ex
pressed. The President, however, was
understood to think that the moves al
ready made will be helpful ultimately,
regardless of the Immediate consequences.
Preliminary iniormation receivoa
here indicates that the entente note
will pay more attention to the Presi
dent's suggestion that means be found
for preserving peace in tne tuture man
am tvin reolv of the central powers.
which suggested postponement of this
question until after tne present war.

It is generally expected mat aner
receipt of the reply or the entente
allies President Wilson will communi
cate again with both sides.
If the terms of the central powers
already have been made known to
President Wilson it is believed they
came through Ambassador Gerard at
Berlin. The German embassy nere naa
no information on the subject late to
night. Several days ago it was stated au
thoritatively that Germany was ready,
should it be .necessary to keep open
the road to peace, to make known
confidentially the terms of the central
powers to the President. It also was
indicated that Germany further might
permit the terms to be transmitted In
confidence to the entente allies.
