Equal suffrage for Maine women
was defeated two to one at the special
election Tuesday, according to new s­
paper returns from tw o-thirds of the
state.
A 9600-pound elephant, named Judy
and attached to a large circus for
many years, was executed in the ra il­
road yards in East St. Louis, 111.,
Wednesday in order to relieve its su f­
ferings from lockjaw.
The Am sterdam T elegraaf says G er­
many has stopped sending coal to Hol­
land. The paper expresses the belief
th a t Germ any’s attitu d e is intended as
pressure on Holland to g ran t a loan
which thus fa r has been refused.
American destroyers are believed to
have sunk one hostile subm arine off
th e coast of France Septem ber 5, while
convoying a fleet of m erchantm en from
th e United S tates. Two of the m er­
ch a n t ships were lost, it is reported,
w ithout loss of life.
How a German subm arine hid be­
hind his schooner until it got w ithin
range to attack an Am erican tank
steam er and later was sunk by the
ta n k e r’s gun crew, was told by the
captain of a sailing vessel at An A t­
lantic Port Wednesday.
The A ustrian government has ju st
put into effect strin g en t regulations to
lim it the consumption of fuel.
The
available supply of coal, coke and bri­

Dallas, the most populous county in
Texas, voted " d r y " in a local option
election Tuesday. W ith but six pre­
cincts out of 96 missing, the prohibi­
tio n ists had a lead of approxim ately
1500. About 19,000 votes were polled
ou t of a reg istratio n of 28,000.
W ashington, D. C .—W hat purported
to be an outline of G erm any’s peace
term s has been circulated among diplo­
m ats here w ithin the last two weeks,
but has been regarded by the entente
em bassies and most of the neutrals as
a “ fe e le r."
The origin of the so-
called term s was not disclosed, but
they are said to have been w ritten by
Foreign Secretary von Kuhlmann be­
fore his visit to Vienna, which since
has been pointed to as strengthening
the probability th a t they bear evi­
dence of authenticity.
Briefly, the so-called term s were as
follows:
R estoration of Belgium and N orth­
ern France, to be paid for out of the
sale of G erm any’s colonies to G reat
B ritain.
Alsace and Lorraine to be independ­
ent states. (H igh French officials re­
cently have stated anew the d e te r­
m ination of France to be satisfied with
nothing less than the recovery of her
lost provinces).
T rieste to be a “ free p o rt.”
Serbia and Roumania to be restored,
and Serbia to have a port on the A dri­
atic.
The Balkan question and the status
of Turkey to be subjected for negotia­
tion.
D isarm am ent and international po­
lice.
Freedom of the seas w ith G reat
B ritain in control of the English chan­
nel until the projected tunnel is built
between Dover and Calais.
This outline of term s, circulated
w ith the definite stam p of officiality,
it will be noted bears in many respects
a resemblance to the general tenor of
the peace proposals o f Pope Benedict.
