Germany has opened the way for peace negotiations and has aked the United States. Swit zerland and Spain to carry the proposals to the allied powers.

England apparently does not Ike the terms, and that the war will continue appears to be the consensus of opinion in the diplomatic world.

Dr. Wood's many friends here hoped that he would be given the honor, as he has been a figure in the senate for a number of years.
