BERLIN. May 24-The Ehert gov-
efnment in flatly announcing it would
"never" sign the peace treaty at it
atandt plunged into a life or death
gamble and Ebert if he did not
realirt it at the time certainly knows
it now. Having burned all bridge
behind them hi and hit ministers are
; now trying desperately to stiffen the
backbone of the people and perhaps
their own by hammering away by
word and pen on the one great
watchword:
"We cannot tign our own death
lenience."

Cermany's thief plenipotentiaries
are back at Versailles after con-
sultation held at Spa with I'reinicr
Scheideniann and other representatives
of the derman home government.
It had been announced from Berlin
that the framing of Germany's counter
proposals to the allied peace terms
was to be considered at the Spa con-
ference and it seems probable that the
final form of these proposals now has
been decided upon.
There it an appreciable pause in
developments at Tans and Versailles
so far as the making of peace with
Germany it concerned.
The peace conferees have been
devoting muih attention to the shap-
ing of the peace treaty to I presented
to the Austrian delegates. It has been
announced that at a plenary session
o! the peace conference to he held on
Tuesday next the treaty with Austria
will be formally laid before the repre-
tativet of the allied nations. The next
day. it it expected the terms will be
handed the Austrian representative!.

to the city.
Patterson said that while he con
sidered Hart was appointed illeRaMy
he will probably take no steps look
ing to his removal. The commis
sioner said he had permitted Hart's
salary and would continue to do so
although he felt that it was being
4one irregularly.
In line with hit rebuff at the
hands of the "triumvirate" Tatter-
son said he might not appoint a su-
perintendent in the water department
He intimated that Mayor Walton
would insist upon a man suitable to
him and that such appointee would
probably not suit Patterson. Patterson
said that the employes in the water
department are well able to conduct
the department and while a superin
tendent could be used to advantage
he would rather not have one than
t employ a man dominated by the
"Bi Three."

Captain Dougherty of the C ity ol

about twenty-five miles away when
the burning Virginia was noticed. He
proceeded to the spot at full speed
as did also the ships Florida City of
Haltimore Southland and City of

the Virginia he found the fire bias-
ing to fiercely that he could not ap-
proach her. He mananed to pick up
the four survivors who were in a
lifeboat.
The steamers City of TUItimnre
wth about (X) passengers of the Vir-

pany for the safety of a number of

hurned to the water's edge off Smith's
Point in Chesapeake bay about 1
o'clock this morning. About 1 sur.
vivors were brought to Norfolk this
morning on the tteamer City of Nor-
folk and the remainder were taken to
Baltimore and Washington. ' ThrVc
negro firemen are known to have per-

The turvivors half clothed and

majority of them iser asleep when

The military terms of the documei.t
It is understood will provide that
Austria! great army in r'H second
only to that of Germany be reduced
to a mere handful of 15.(11)0 men. All
implement! of war now in the hands
of the Austrian! are to be destroyed
and the further manufacture of muni
tiom is to be forbidden. The naval
terms published in part tome time
ago sweep away the whole Austrian
navy.
Dispatches from Paris indicate that
the work of the peace conference will
not end with the sinning of the
treaties between the allies and the
central empires Bulgaria and Turkey
It is said that the work of adjusting
conflicting views on subjects which
are important to tht allies is likely to
take considerable lime.
It is believed therefore that Ameri-
can representatives will remain in
Paris after the peace has been made
and President Wilson has left for the
United State! to consider with the
repretentativet of other governmenti
the varied tubjects still demanding at-
tention. For Plain Nerve

PARIS. Mav 24-In answer to
the note by the allied and asso-
ciated governmenti on German re-
spontibility for the damage done
in Belgium and northern France.
Germany declares her willingnest
to repair all damaget caused in
thote regions by the violation of
Belgiuma neutrality but asterit
that most of the damage was done
not by her own srmies but by the
allies.
The Germans add that in the
treaty of Brest-Litovsk Germany
did not insist on indemnities for
damage! caused bv the entry of
Russian troops in East Prussia.

(Ry The Amoelattd lrH )
PARIS Friday May 2J-Tht
American delegation has prepared a
memorandum showing the status of
affairs before the peace conference on
the conclusion of the Austrian treatv.
This discloses that formidable
amount of business la still to be
transacted besides the Tirkisn and
Bulgarian treaties covering tht
whole range of inter-allied sublects
The memorandum runs through many
pages ywith scores of heading. It
leaves no doubt that the conference
will continue for a considerable tim
after the treaties have been signed

ing expected that the other Amerl
can members will remain to consider

A. Hoiitt and myself the Independent
Breweries company has resumed the
brewing of beer containing alcohol
not to exceed 2.75 percent by weight
"The Independent Breweries com-
pany has decided upon this course
as the only one short of discontinuing
business. Its stock of beer is almost
exhausted. Unless b ewing is resumed.
its businets would soon have to stop
its plants completely shut down the
men he laid oif the organization dis
rupted and the customers left without
supplies to continue their business."
WASHINGTON. May 24-Since
federal authorities have not interfered
with production of beer containing
2 3 4 percent aleohok officials here
say that determination of the New
York federal district court to issue
an injunction against interference
would not have any immediate prac
tical effect in the controvery over
the legality ot the brewing of the
beverage.

REAL PROBLEM
IN REDUCING
NAVY STRENGTH
Department Trying to Reach
250000 Mark by July I.
WASHINGTON May 2V-Ways
and means for getting the navy and
marine corps strength down to a
peace basis fist been the subject of
several conferences between Secre-
tary Daniels and his bureau chiefs
during the past few days. The prob-
lem it regarded as one of the Knot-
tiest post-war puirfes now confront-
ing the department and although
great progress has been made in de-
mobilizing the navy proper since the
armistice was signed thousands ol
officers and enlisted men still must
be .released before normal strength is
reached. It is believed by officers
concerned however that at the pres-
ent rate of demobilisation the numeri-
cal strength of the navy will be well
below the 250.000 mark set by the
secretary at the end of the fiscal
year July I.
On May I there were 285000 offi-
cers and enlisted men in the service
a reduction since November 11 of
245.000. The figure set for the re-
duced strength of the navy in the
senate naval deficiency bill of the last
congress was 250.000 and in the house
hill the number was placed at 225.000.
Based on a total strength of 250.UOO
men naval officials are confronted
with Ihe necessity for reducing the
officer personnel from more than 31.-
001) now on duty to lest than 10000
by July 1.
The question of adjusting) the rank
of officers of the regular navy on the
basis of the peace time strength is
another puile. To meet the rapid in
crease in the naval establishment
during the war practically all of the
regular officers were temporarily
promoted on one or more grades
r.ntlino- the navv hack to a oeace-
time basis means the mljnrfty of
these officers must be returned 'to
their former rank.

It has been the plan of the governor
