AUSAS CUT, ME GERMAN DRIVE ON SLAV FOR PEACE AND ORDER-KUEHLMANN Even Today Germans Are Pre pared to Conclude a Peace Which Corresponds to Their Interests, Minister Says • LONDON. Feb. 20.—The British army in Palestine made an attack yesterday east of Jerusalem, advancing two miles l on a front of fifteen miles, it is an nounced officially. The communication . follows: ’’Yesterday morning we advanced to the attack on a frontage of fifteen miles east of Jerusalem. By evening all ob jectives had b«»en secured, to an average depth of two miles." STOCKHOLM. Feb. 20.—Serious out breaks against the Jews in various parts of Russia are described in reports re ceived b ythe Jewish Press Bureau here Bloody pogroms are said to Wave oc . curred at Lublin. Rashkoff. Tscherkohi, Tiraspol and Kornin. AMSTERDAM. Feb. 20.—A raid by entente aviators on Treves, Rhenish Prussia, is reported in a dispatch from that city to the Cologne Gazette. It says bombs were dropped in various parts , of Treves, causing damage to property. No military establishments were in jured. Treves is a city of about 45,000 in habitants on the Moselle river, thirty five miles from the French border. NEW YORK, Feb. 20.—(Summary of European Cables.)—Notwithstanding the Bolsheviki have announced their will ingness to conclude an immediate peace on the central powers' terms, the Ger man armies are continuing to advance in Great Russia. The German headquar ters statement today reports a further torward move of the German forces which recently crossed the Dvina on the northern front and occupied Dvinsk. They pushed on east and northeast of that -ity yesterday, it is announced. Germany undertook this campaign to sis eguard peace and order in the occu pied regions on her eastern frontier. Dr. von Kuehlmann. the German foreign minister, told the reichstag main com mittee yesterday. She had lost faith in the pacifist intentions of Russia, he de clared. Nevertheless, Dr. von Keuhlmann an nounced, Germany even now was ready to make a peace with the Russians on a basis which would protect German in terests. It seems probable that his ad dress was made before the Bolshevik protest and offer of submission was re ceived in Berlin, but the continued ad vance of the German armies reported today makes it appear that the German military authorities, at least, are in no • haste to check the forward movement. The Bolshevik government, in this I connection, reports that General Hoff ! man. German military representative at the Brest-Litovsk peace conference, has asked that written confirmation of the Russian wireless peace offer be sent to Dvinsk. The Russians have forward?d such confirmation to Dvinsk by messen ger, they announce. Every effort is being made by the Austrian authorities to convince their people that the peace made with the Ukraine was not only one of great ma terial advantage to the central powers, but that the injustice that might have been done to Poland by subtracting from her the province of Cholm and giv ing it to the Ukraine will be remedied. Great dissatisfaction has been created among the Liberals in the dual mon archy by this territorial feature of the peace settlement. Premier von Seydler now announces a separate agreement between Austria- Hungary and the Ukraine under which a mixed co'mmission will be named to de cide the disposition of Cholm and race principles. At the same time the pre mier points to the material gains which will come from the peace. The Austro- J Hungarian plea for food will be met ' j from the Ukraine's stores, he intimates, I declaring that the Ukrainian surplus r which has been placed at the disposition ■ of the central powers will be moie than ! the latter can possibly carry away by 1 the means of transportation available. I News agency advices report indica i tions of continued industrial unrest in ' Germany manifested by the determina ' I tion of the German Independent Social -1 ists to arrange for a demonstrative strike in the German munition factories ’ | beginning on March 1. Although quite prepared to advanc, I against defenseless Russia, the Germans have made no offensive movement on the western front. Activity on the British and French fronts has confined almost wholly to artillery bombardment, par ticularly on the Arras-St, Quentin sec tor. in Champagne and northeast of Ver dun. On the American sector a Germar patrol has been dispersed with casual ties and the American artillery has beer scattering shrapnel over the Germar trenches. Raiding and artillery opera tions are becoming more active on thi Italian front. Marked aerial activity continues or the western front and entente aviators i have accounted for 39 more German ma ’ chines.

' 3 BOO) DE NEGRO FOUND ■NG UPON TREE Lynching Follows Snatching of Child From Home of Mother FAYETTEVILE, Ga.. Feb. 19.—The I body of Bud Cosby, the negro who enter- - ed the home of Mrs. Reesie Parrott Sat- I urday night and carried away the child. 1 was found hanging to a limb in Flat creek swamp at the spot where the child was found Sunday morning, according ■ to news reaching this town. Particulars I are not available at this time of the affair, but it was learned that the negro forced his entrance into the house by knocking the door open after the women refused to let him in. He was positive ly recognized by the women as he en tered anl carried the child away. The women were alone in the house, Parrott having been called to the army. Sheriff Kerlin and Coroner Holt re turned from the scene where Cosby was lynched and it is reported tnat they were unable to find any facts that would lead to the identity of the mob. It de veloped at the inquest that no one knew or saw any of the mob that lynched the negro or knew when it was done. The mob, it is said, searched for j Cosby all day Sunday, finding him that night at the home of another negro near Aberdeen. According to information re ceived here, the negro was carried to the briar patch where the child was found and hanged to the limb of a tree. The mob then dispersed.

Atlanta Man Arrested In Minnesota Charged With Being Slacker Charged with failing to return his questionnaire io the exemption board of his division in this city, I. N. Wein stein, of Atlanta, has been arrested by department of justice agents in St. Paul, Minn., according to - information contained in dispatches received here late Wednesday afternoon. Officials of the department of justice in Atlanta stated that charges had been preferred against Weinstein, following the receipt of Information that he had told some of his Atlanta friends that he was going to Australia. L. J. Baley, in charge of the depart ment of justice bureau here, said that Weinstein would be brought back to Atlanta, either to face trial, or to be in ducted immediately into the army of selected men. Weinstein's address in Atlanta is said to have been on Pulliam street, near Washington terrace. tung, emphasizes this point and wants am explanation of who was responsible for this disappointment. The Socialist Vorwaerts takes the same line, and says: "The more we meddle in Russian af fairs the more we get away from peace. What must be done is to stick to the defense of our own soil and to make peace wherever possible without annex ation or forcible amputations." A large section of opinion in Austria- Hungary also is alarmed over the pros pect of a renewal of war with Russia. Dispatches from Amsterdam and Zu rich quote Austro-Hungarian newspapers to this effect and Vienna dispatches to the Vossische Zeitutyg reports a rising of feeling against Germany on account of her action against Russia. The Neue Freie Presse and the Reichs post argue that as Austria-Hungary no longer has any enemies on her eastern frontiers she is not called to interfere in Russian internal affairs. The Arbei ter Zeitung, Vienna's leading Socialist newspaper, insists emphatically that Austria-Hungary must not take part in a new offensive. It thinks that the invasion of a totally defenseless coun try will gain the German government little support among the German work ers who, although they entered the war against czardom with enthusiasm, will not indorse its continuance for the pur pose of overthrowing the labor govern ment in Petrograd. "Austria-Hungary." it adds, "cannot hinder the pla»s of »he German im perialists. but it cannot and dure not join Germany in a new war Russia. This appears also to be the view of the emperor and the government, but the people demand from Count Czernin, the foreign secretary, absolute assurance that Austria-Hungary regards her war with Russia as ended." New Grandson Brings T. R. “Perfect Delight’’ NEW YORK, Feb. 19.—Colonel Theo dore Roosevelt, who is convalescing ’n a hospital here, said he was “perfectly delighted" when a long distance tele phone message from Boston today brought word of . the birth in that city of his eighth grandchild—a boy born to Captain and Mrs. Archie Roosevelt. Captain Roosevelt, who has just been promoted to that rank, is with General Pershing’s forces in France. The news was telephoned by Mrs. Richard Derby, who formerly was Miss Ethel Roosevelt. No bulletins were issued today on the former president's condition, physicians explaining that his progress was contin uing satisfactory. Austram Socialists Ask for Peace THE HAGUE. Feb. 21.—The Social ists have introduced a resolution in the Austrian parliamaiit asking the govern ment to accept President \Tilson's peace program and to begin negotiations as soon as possible, according to Vienna dispatches received today.

If Hindenburg has completed tenta ! tive plans for such a move, the allies I are equally prepared to counter, as long las they are convinced it is the Ger man military policy to regard the i treaty of 1815 as no more sacred than ■ the Belgian “scrap of paper,” providing the violation is considered strategical ly advantageous. There is no doubt but that the fullest cognizance has been taken of the re cent massing of Germans near the Swiss border, which, however, must be i regarded as a possible blind to distract j attention from the real point of the I projected offensive. This has been suggested in some I quarters in connection with the recent trip of General Smuts to Switzerland which had been reported political in character, but which perhaps may have been really military.
