Predict "Withdrawal of Pershing's
Troops and Release of Slate's
Militia.
Washington. Jan. 1 1. The United
States militia men will le hack in
their homes ly .March 1, and Coti
c -al Pershing's column will he on the
American side of t!ie border.
The United Press learned these
facts today from the most reliable
S i iices. Only unforeseen difficulties
-:- !aters will halt this program.
Moreover, this government will es-
..M:-h a closer medium of communi
cation Ly sending Ambassador I'letch
cr to his Mexico City post. The date
f : this uncertain, hut probably will
he within the next week or ten days.
The war department is ready to
Ji.'.ve Pershing's command on a nean-
r.t's notice.
General Pershing himself has Ids
rt n ready for the 1' mile nv::vh
rorthward within a lew hours afte."
1 l yets the order.
Monday the American-Mexican
pi uc commission will h. id its finr.
.-t-ssion in New York, and afterward
'".ial announcement of th with
drawal and militia removal plans will
p ..h -bly he made at once.
The militia troops will move as rap
idly as possible, but the question of
full transportation may mean seveial
weeks lefoie all will be returned.
The plan, as outlined by war oili-i-ials,
will be to start some of the mili
tiamen home as soon as Pershing's
forces are under way, though it was
said perhaps Ids actual arrival at the
border may be awaited before en
t rai. merit of t'ne bulk of the militia is
undit iVon. A start will probably be
made ret week or the week follow
inir on th.e troop movements.
This government had contemplated
withdrawal of 'the IYr.-hing column
unier a protocol between the United
Star.-s and General Carran::a.
Carranza has failed, to sien. so the

WILSON EXPECTS
TERMS OF PEAC
United Stales (o Indirectly Ask Condi
Hons if Berlin Delays Further
Negotiations.
Washington, D. C, Jan. 1?,.
statement of terms from Germany ant
her allies at) least as comprehensive as
those set forth by the entente in re
plying to President Wilson's note is
the next move hoped for here in the
peace negotiations.
Whether time will be allowed for
the Teutonic nations to state their
terms on their own initiative or
whether President Wilson will make
some move to give an opening remains
undetermined.
There are indications, however, that
if no statement of the Teutonic terms
forthcoming within a reasonable
time, the United States may seek
means to indicate the desirability of
such a course.
President Undecided.
It was reiterated today that the
president had not determined on his
position and it was pointed out that
in his note he said he was indifferent
to the means employed for comparing
terms.
He is reluctant to judge between
the two replies and has not made
known his impressions of the entente
note. In other administration quar
ters it has been suggested, however.
that the objects which the president
had in mind could best he demonstrat
ed now by the central powers publicly
declaring their own terms.
Allies' Indignation Abates.
Otlicials are watching particularly
just now the trend: of public sentiment
ibroad and the apparent change since
the dispatch of the president's note
lias proved a source of increasing
gratification.
The first feeling of indignation
among the allies because of the coin
cidence ot the president s proposal
with that of the central powers has
abated, it is believed here, and is be
ing replaced by a conviction that goo 1
may come of the American note.
No Early Peace.
There is no indication in official
circles, however, that an early peace
s thought probable.
On the contrary the statement of
tiie a Ties' objects, it is recognized, has
made acceptance by Germany veiy dif
ficult for the present, however far
it may have gone toward establishing
a preliminary basis which may fa
cditate peace negotiations when the
end of hostilities docs come. The ad
ministration is acting on the assump
tion that bitterness engendered by
the war cannot be healed in a moment
but that every step toward that end
brings a final approachment nearer.
First expressions of bitterness in
Germany over the entente reply are
somewhat discounted here and it is
felt there may be a change of senti
ment just as there were in the en
tente countries in regard to the presi
dent's note. It is conceded, however,
thaj for the present popular desire for
a prosecution of the war will be
quickened.
Expect No Terms.
The German view here is that there
is little likelihood of a public state
mend of specific terms by the Teutonic
allies at this time, unless a further
move to that end is made by the presi
dent. Should a request for such a
statement be forwarded to Berlin,
however, it is declared Germany prob
ably would comply.
It has been the contention of Teu
tonic diplomats that, in proposing a
peace conference, Germany fulfilled
the president's suggestion that an
early occasion be sought for discus
sion of terms and that no other step
is called for unless there is a second
and more specific request.

The condition of Mis. Z. T. Ill own,
who was stri k 11 a few days ago with
pneumonia, is very critical and the

the past two days, and with the se

her lecovery very doubtful. This s-o-lious
illness of Mrs. Ilrown has come
with a great shock to the family and
the numerous frienas of this estimable

SUFFERS A SERIOUS FALL
This afternoon shortly before
o'clock while Mrs. "William Morky
was crossing Main street in front of
the store of K. G. Dovey v Son she
was unfortunate enough to slip on
the ice in the center of the street
and fall to the pavement, striking
on her left side ar.d injuring the left
imb quite severely. She was car-
led into the Dovey store end a hack
called to take her home where the
injured member was dressed. It was
some time before medical assistance
could be secured and it is imnossibk:
at the hour of going to press to state
whether the injury is a dislocation
or a very severe sprain as n, is evi-
ent that the bones were not broken
and it seems more in the nature of
a sprain.
