A situation of tremendous import
to the Allies exists in Russia, and
then? appears to be strong evidence
in the veiled hints contained in care-
fully censored dispatches from Petro-
grad that the czar's government has
j been on the verge of concluding a
separate peace with the Central
Powers. A strong hint of this is con-
tained in an Amsterdam dispatch
printed below about "glad tidings"
promised to the German people be-
fore Christmas.
Additional evidence to support that
( belief is found in the dispatcn printed
j this morning- quoting Premier Trepoff
who found it necessary to reiterate
: the promise of the Entente that Rus-
( sia should have Constantinople and
the Gallipoli Straits as her share of
the war booty. Without this prize,
victory would mean nothing to Rus-
sia.
The German influence always has
l been strong at the Russian court and
I there is plenty of evidence that, al-
most from the beginning of the 'war,
there has been a constant agitation
in favor of a separate peace. It is
not at all improbable that the cabinet
clisis in Great Britajfci has direct
connection with the Russian situa-
i tion and there is a strong probability
j that Greece's show of resistance to
the Allies is inspired by the
