WASHINGTON. Oct. 12. If Ocr
ninny's reply to President Wilson's
innuirios reiinrdintr her pence propos
nls was despatched hist niulit ns dis
imtches from Switzerland iudiciile. il
probably will roach Washington not
later than tomorrow iiiht. I'rince
Maximilian's first nolc was delivered
licrsonully to President Wilson hv
the Swiss oliurue here, so should tin
. reply come to the legation tomor
row it may he held until Monday till
the return of Ihe president from New
York. The firs note was about -IN
hours ooniimr from cahle from Hcrne.
The stale department is still Willi-
out confirmation ol the reports Ihal
Turkey lias aiipenled to Ihe allies for
peace on allied terms, and there also
was not him.' official rcardiic.' un
olher conununicalion from Austria.
Tho collapse of Ihe pro-flerinan
Government in Turkey is regarded
here, virtually ns an accomplished
fact. Consiiiuenllv a direct appeal
from Constantinople for peac e with
out reunrd to llerlin is expected mo
mentarily. Apparently no such thins; as direct
drilling: in German diplomacy is look
ed for. and even an official an
nouncement from Merlin that the note
meant utuiualificd acceptance of
American and allied terms would he
viewed with open suspicion. It would
he unite in kecpiiii.' with Gentian meth
ods, it is pointed out. to seek at this
critical moment to hefoir the issue
nnd unsettle puhlie opinion hv mis
lcadinir statements to create the im
pression that the war is over.
Unless Germany actuallv is ready
for unconditional surrender officials
here do not believe that IVip.ce Max
imilian will rcitlv to Ihe president hv
Havinir he represents the German peo
ple themselves remirdless id' the war
lords, and that the president's condi
tions me accepted without cuiiivocn
tion. There probably will be attempts
hv diplomatic trickeries to the verv
last to iret soniethinir better than the
dictated peace before the Americans
nnd nllies begin to cross the German
border. ,
BERNE, Oct. 12. The Wolff bar
can, life semi-official German news
agency lias circulated a Frankfurter
Zeltunu dispatch from Herlln statinc
that the German reply to President
Wilson's note was sent last nlKht and
that It Is In a sense an acceptance.
PARIS, Oct. 12 Today finds Ger
many a little nearer the brink of
disaster. Marshal Koch's broom ap
plied in the Champagne, has swept
the enemy back from a wider section
of the front than ever before.
General Ludendorff is reaning the
results of the cardinal error he made
in thinking that tho allied offensives
were hound to be spaced at wide in
tervals like his own. The continuity
of the attacks has literally dumb
founded the Germans and it Is plain
that there is vaceilation at grand
German headquarters.
The evacuation of the Belgian
coast appears to have been ordered
and then countermanded, which jus
tifies the inference that General Lii-
dendorff is no longer guided by pure
ly military considerations either
from the demoralizing effect a re
treat on a largo scale would have In
tho interior and the idea of more
territory remains in his hands the
stronger will bo Germany's position
in Its conversations with Washing
ton. General l.udendorff Is letting
Prussia's time slip by for which It
Is likely he will repent.
Marshal POeh in the preface to his
celebrated book "on the conduct of
war" says:
"Nogl's army at Mukden sought
not so much to crush tho Russian
rlshl by a flank attack as to get on
bis rear and thus determine the re
treat of all the enemy's forces."
Tho allied commander-in-chief
ippears to be applying that principle
In Prance. The German frfont forms
a vast .salient from the Eseaut to the
Mouse, the extreme point of It being
Anizy. Marshal Koch is attacking It
not alone on tlH one flank, but on
hoth, while 4io is pressing the center
In the section between I.a Fere and
Mcrry-au-llac to prevent tfle enemy's
breaking contact nnd slipping away.
At the beginning of tho week It
was the turn of the left of the allied
forces which struck In the direction
of Mauheuge and Guise. Yesterday
it was the right that delivered the
blow, aiming it In tho direction of
Ylozlcres. Whether both wings break
thru or only one is immaterial. The
result would be the same and the
longer the Germans resist the worse
lor them. Every day adds to the was
tage of their effective material nnd
sbould they hold on too long their
retreat would become a rout.
BASEL, Oct. 12. (llavas.) The
Frankfort Gazette announces that
the German answer to President Wil
son, which has been accepted In prin
ciple, probably was forward'-d on
Friday night. The Gazette say? It
has reason to believe that tho answer
expresses adhesion of Germany to the
demands of President Wilson.
