The German allusions to the subject are less specifically phrased. The significant wording of an article In the Socialist newspaper Vorwaerts now considered to speak with some au thority, however, gives a clue to the solution which the German Govern ment apparently has in mind. We have reason to believe." the newspaper declares In referring to the Socialist stand for peace without an nexations or conquests or humiliation for any nation, and for giving every race the right to decide Its own des tinies, "that the government recog nizes the Justice of this standpoint and honestly desires to terminate' the war by negotiations in which the powers would participate on the basis of full equality with every thought of en forced cessions of territory excluded." AMSTERDAM, via London, April 18. The text of the semi-official statement Issued by the Korrespondenz Bureau in Vienna, declaring that there Is no real obstacle to the peace which Austria de- lres with the Russian people is as fol lows: The government of the Austro-Hun- garlan monarchy has received knowl edge of the manifesto of the Russian provisional government published on April 11. It has learned therefrom that Russia does not parsue a design to rule over other peoples, to take from them their national heritage and forcibly occupy territory, that it rather, on the basis of the right of nations to decide their destinies for themselves, deaires to bring about peace. The Austro-Hun-garian government perceives therein that the Russian provisional govern ment desires to attain an aim which agrees with that which the Austro- Hungarlan Foreign Minister on March 31 stated as the war aim of the Austro Hungarlan monarchy. It can therefore be stated that the Austro-Hungarlan government and the Russian provisional governmept are striving In the same manner for a peace honorable to both parties, a peace which, as was pronounced In the peace offer of Austria-Hungary and Its allies In December, would develop the belligerent states. The conviction of the allies (Teutonic) pronounced at that time that their rights and established claims can be reconciled, without con flict, with those of other nations, con tinues to exist today more strongly after the manifesto of the Russian pro visional government. As it is here with clearly demonstrated to 'the en tire world and especially to the peoples of Russia, that Russia Is no longer forced to fight for her defense and for the freedom -of her peoples. It can, in view of the conformity of the alms of tne governments of the allies and the Russian provisional government, not be difficult to find a way towards an un derstanding. This the less as the Em peror, in agreement with the monarchs of the allies, fosters the hope to live in future In peace and friendship with the Russian people which, as regards Its internal and external conditions of life, is secured and confident. DECLARATION IS "REGRETTED Hungarian Premier Refuses to Dls ensa Entry of United States. AMSTERDAM, via London, April 16. Premier Tisza, of Hungary, Is quoted In a Budapest dispatch as having said in the House of Magnates: As one regards the question of the United States, we have had occasion to express our point of view. Since, as have previously pointed out, the United States, to our regret, declared itself m a state of war with Germany, the logical conclusion necessarily had to be drawn. That is a precise and con Crete fact having no need of explana tlon. I should make a mistake If added any explanation." Premier Tlsza's statement was made In reply to an interpellation by Count Anton Slgray. Speaking of Russia, the Premier said: "The situation is very clear. No one thinks of interfering in the internal affairs of the Russian state. The events which have taken place in Russia have changed in no way our interpretation of the aims of the monarchy and the nation In this war. I think that if now by any fresh statement I were to repeal the completely clear declaration already made by the allied (central) powers, should not be strengthening our posl tlon but only weakening It, and should not be favoring the cause of peace which we all have before our eyes, but on the contrary should per haps be compromising It. Consequently 1 beg the House to content Itself with this statement." STATE NOT REPRESENTED OREGON NOW HAS NO MEMBER. ON HARBORS COMMITTEE.
