(By the As sociated Press.) In the Austrian capi tal Thursday the movement in favor of a republic was still strong, but no de cision had been reached. Some action will soon be necessary, however, the correspondent adds. The Austro-German deputies who ad dressed the crowds had the greatest difficulty In making the soldiers un derstand that the new government has not the power to bring about ' peace, but must await events. The new state council has - adopted the old colors of Battenberg red, white and red for German-Austria.

"From July IS till November 1 our successes on every front have been un interrupted and decisive," he continued. "The armistice is signed with the Bul garians and with the Turks. Austria is asking for it; Germany begs for it. From the military and political stand point our situation Is excellent. Military Position Stronsr- "On the military side you know all about the 400,000 prisoners we have taken and the territory we have re conquered, but I wish to bring out two points that have not been sufficiently emphasized as yet: "First, we have henceforth In reserve more divisions than the enemy, and the decision of the battles belongs to the reserves. "Second, the German army, roughly dealt with by Foch every day for three months and a half, cannot reorganize, even by shortening Its front, and it Is already being steadily weakened by de ficiency in munitions and numbers. "Thus our diplomatic position has completed the work of our armies by compelling our adversaries to acknow ledge what the President so aptly called 'military supremacy of the al lies.' Victory Aim of Allien. "The frame of mind of the allied troops may be expressed in these words: They are ready to fight till victory be complete.' "They are pleased that every guar antee has been taken against German ruse and deceit. No chance has been neglected of Insuring victory of right. "In short, everything which states manship could have done in order to hasten the decision has been done and well done. All that Is needed is to go on. "Two weeks ago I was with your sol diers by a bond of professional broth erhood united to their French and Eng lish comrades, with whom since March last they have night and day been fighting. One single army on the single front. This has been the secret of our victory. "This unity is the most precious of our possessions. Let us eagerly hold to it in view of the conclusion of peace. Let us hold to It for the material and moral reconstruction of a bleeding world.' PARTS. Nov.. 2. The anted Prime Ministers now in Paris, together with Colonel o. XL.

The views of the United States on ROYALTY IS THROWN OUT STEW BUIGARIAX GOVERNMENT FORMED BY PEASANTS. M Stambuliwsky, Leader of Polit leal Movement, Commands an Army of 40,000 Men- COPENHAGEN, Nov. 2. Monarchy has fallen and a republic has been pro claimed in Bulgaria. King Boris, who has occupied the throne only since October 3, has ab dicated. A peasant government has been es tablished at Tirnova under the leader ship of M. Stambuliwsky, who has been the chief of the peasants and agrari ans of Bulgaria for some time. - LONDON, Nov. 2. M. Stambuliwsky who is reported to be the head of the new government in Bulgaria, is said to be. in command of a republican army of 40,000 men, according to a Zurich dispatch to the Central News. Stambuliwsky, the new leader' of the Bulgarian government, was only re cently released from prison. When Bui garia entered the war in October, 1915, Stambuliwsky was sentenced to im prisonment for life after conviction on a charge of anti-militarism. He re mained in prison until September 30, when he was pardoned by King Ferdi nand prior to that King's abdictation. For many years Stambuliwsky has been the leader of the peasants and the Agrarians in the Bulgarian Parliament.

SURRENDER SEEMS CERTAIN Both People and Government Await TVlth Apprehension. Terms of Armistice. BT GENERAL. P. M. G. MALLETERP.E, Of the French Army. (Copyright, 1118, by The Press Publishing company, Tai Aew xoxK v orld, published by arrangement. ) PARIS. Nov. 2. Special.) After Bulgaria. Austria. Nothing remains to Germany but the Russian Bolshevlki. What a vengeful irony of events, when military autocracy, the symbol of social discipline, is reduced to alliance with terrorist anarchy. The Austro-Hungarian government. or rather what is left of it. under the fateful name of Andrassy, asks for separate armistice and peace. Is it not strange that the son of the man who bound Austcia in the triple alliance, as a partner with Germany, should cut the war cord on the edge of a precipice? It is too late to stop the German government, or that which appears to be the government, although still masking- under the redoubtable ghost of a Kaiser, from bowing before the ultimatum of President Wilson. The sincerity of the government and the repentance of the German people re main alike to be proved. Terms Awaited In Fear It is only certain that both govern ment and people are awaiting with apprehension the terms of the allies for an armistice. We need not enter Into predictions as to the reply of the allies, or as to the extent to which they will follow the President's suggestions. Probably they will make known their conditions as a matter of course. This does not imply necessary change in the present order of things. It will be for the Germans to sub mit to such armistlc conditions as may be imposed. Without wishing to define prematurely what the conditions will be, 1 wish to remind American friends of what I said in my last article. An armistice signifies capitulation. There can be no lasting peace without the capitulation and disarmament of Germany. Strong- Guarantees Necessary. Capitulation, like disarmament, must be attended with effective, material guarantees of the "most extraordinary" character, in accordance with Presi dent Wilson's own words. Let us not be misled by so-caned moral considerations or by the empty manifestoes of those party men who are blinded by their political passions r are aupes or tools of Germany. Alsace-Lorraine roust be returned to Prance, not only in reparation of the wrong done tn 1871. but also as a mili tary guarantee against the offensive return of Germanism. In the present situation, when the treaties of Vienna of 1815 are to be abolished for all time, let as not forget mat one or tne greatest misdeeds of those treaties was the establishment of Prussia on the left bank of the Rhine. It was placed there as a guard against the revival by Franca of NaDolconlc imperialism. Alsace-Lorraine Stolen Goods. As soon as Prussia took over the di rection of militarizing Germany it had the Rhinisb country, to which in time was added Alsace-Lorraine, as a base of operations for its offensive of con quest and domination. There is now no question of autonomy or of military neutralization, nor la there doubt, to my mind, of the need of the occupation of the provinces on either side of the Rhine, at least tem porarily. Alsace-Lorraine Is stolen goods, which must be returned to legitimate ownership. It must have confidence In its mother country in respect to the conditions of reunion. Battle continues with extreme vio lence on the western front. The American Army In particular is fight ing under very trying conditions. I shall deal with its operatons in my next article. The Italian army has attacked. It is possible that the Austro-Hungarian divisions, after a surface show, will founder as has the monarchy. WRECK DEATH TOTAL IS 82 v ;-.

MAYOR irVLAN" TAKES STEPS TOWARD PROSECUTION. WAR AND MEDICINES What Many of tne Sick and Ailing- Are Learning Nowadays. Bo many doctors have gone to war the services of comparatively few are available at home.

These medicines are remarkably effi cient, whether taken in conjunction or separately. Adv. SEAPLANE ACCIDENT FATAL Ensign Edwin Pon Killed While Landing Off French Coast. WASHINGTON. Nov. 2.

Seattle Stores Closed Saturdays on Account of Epidemic. It is hoped that Portland retail stores will not have to close as a result of the Influenza epidemic If proper precau tions are taken, there ia every reason to believe that this step will not be necessary. One of the most successful preventitives is the Purola Influenza Treatment. All drug stores sell it. It is wise to start taking it before even the first sneeze occurs. Priced only 60c box. Adv. Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company Accused of Employing Inex perienced, Men. NEW YORK. Nor. 2. With a revised police list placing the number of dead at 83 and the number of injured at 44 in last night's train wreck on the Brighton Beach line of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company, Mayor Hylan today commnnlcated with the Brook lyn authorities and with the cjty'8 Board of Aldermen, requesting prosecu tion of the company officials and urg ing legislation designed to prevent employment of inexperienced men. Yesterday's strike of motormen and motor switchmen of the company, which was coincident with the tragedy, was settled during the early morning hours, company officials agreeing to reinstate 29 discharged union employes. The company had previously refused to obey the order of the war labor board and take back the men. Interest in the investigations cen tered on William Lewis, motorman of the train, who was arrested on a charge of homicide. Mayor Hylan. who visited Lewis in the Flatbush Police Station soon after his arrest, issued this state ment: "Lewis admitted to me that this was his first run over the road. He said he was going 0 miles an hour. No man should be allowed to run a train without at least three months train ing." President Timothy - S. Williams, of the Transit Company, asserted that al though Lewis was a motor switchman, he was a "trained man." and capable of running a train. Lewis was pressed into service yesterday, it was said, on account of the strike. 100 Service, Both Day and Night, on This "Easy-to-Open, Easy-to-Close" Nufold Living-Room Davenport Bed The Price on This 2-in-l Davenport Is Only ' $54.65 Almost identical to the illustration.
