RECEIVED BULGARIA ! SURRENDER
BASBI,, Switzerland, Oct. 10 The
central powers found themselves no
longer able to hope for a military
decision In their favor, and llul
garla's demand for peace only has
tened tho presentation of their peace
propositions, Baron Hurlan, tho Ann-tio-Hungarlan
foreign minister de
clared In a rocont statement to tho
furolKii affairs committee of the
Hungarian delegation at Vienna.
"Allho tho centrul powers have
been able to rate the now military
situation," tho foreign minister said,
"It must ho slated that we cannot
hope any longer for a decisive suc
cess by arniB, while our adversaries
aio not sure of their power to crush
oi r resistance. Hence further blood.
tod Is useless."
Faithful to Onnui.y
Oonfldcnco that Turkey would ro
m-.ln faithful to tho Teutonic alii
anco wsb ortproH.od by llaron Hurlan
The forcigu minister alsto reasserted
Austria-Hungary's fidelity to Cer-m.-ny.
"We shall enter upon the negotia
tions," he Bald, "closely united with
ovr faithful (lerman ally and wltn
Turkey, which continues to keep her
engagement toward the alliance, not
withstanding tho difficult situation
In which she Ib placed by the disap
pearance of liulgaria."
llaron Hurinn said that a senti
ment of puro humanity always per
vadod President Wilson'B ideas of
tho BOlutlon of world problems, "oven
when he joined our adversaries and
laid down certain principles dlroctcd
against iib. Ills doclurations, there
fore, ncvor remained without Influ
ence amongst us and were over urged
by us In principle"
The fnrolgn minister oxpressod the
Tlrw that tho crcTlon of a lcaguo of
nations constituted a preliminary
coidltlnn for tho establishment of a
peico of Impartial Jusllio "such as
president Wilson and wo desire."
Such a league, ho added "would form
tho frame work of tho new world. It
Is upon It that the various states will
build up their reciprocal relations."
"Such a league," llaron llurlon
continued, "will rcpiaco tho policy of
an equilibrium of groups of powers
depending on forre by on organiza
tion of slates voluntarily submitting
to an International law established
hv thiimuelvns with the creation of an
cocutlvo power abovo the states to I
onforco the law."
International arbitration tribunals

ister said, nnd armaments will losoj

th;n said:

"It is not my place to enter Into a
discussion as to tho reasons why
Pjcsldent Wilson delayed his reply
to us when he had communicated
with Ciormnny with a view to enlight
ening certain preliminary questions,
for I should bo reduced to a pure
hypothesis.
"I would only say that our confi
dence in President Wilson's word is
so firm that wo categorically reject
suppositions nt bring to his procecd
Ute motives, tactical reasons or in
tfntlons malevolent toward tho mon
archy." ,
Haron llurian told tho committee
of the Hungarian delegation that
Plosldent Wilson's declaration that
tho evacuation of territory before an
armistlro could bo granted was "pcr
fe'tly Just and founded not only on
polltlcnl reasons but on positlvo mili
tary reasons."
"Our agreement and I hat of Cer
many to this evacuation Is cerlatn,"
lio udded.
