PERU'S APOLOGY APPEASES CHILE AND AVERTS WAR Misunderstanding Brought to End by Admission at Lima of Having Acted on Misunderstanding. New York, Nov. 26.

Paris, Nov; 26. A league of nations is likely to figure before the peace conference at 'an early stage of the pro ceedings, instead of being relegated to the close, after the territorial aspirations of the various powers are settled. Two distinct viewpoints have now developed in this subject. The American view is that the coming congress will not be like the Vi enna congress which devoted itself principally, to arranging what each power should recive as a result of the Napoleonic upheaval. Accord ing to the American view, the present warl was based on certain high ideals, and was not a struggle for territorial gains. ... Ideals First American Plan. ! Therefore, it is,. maintained ideals should come before territorial as pirations in the deliberations of the congress, and these , ideals having been first defined, should thereafter be the main guide ,in national as pirations. ' One of the chief of those ideals, it is pointed out, was to prevent fu ture warfare, and a league of na tions has been generally and offi cially accepted as the most practical organization for accomplishing that ideal. It is, therefore, field that this should be one of the first sub jects considered, and should set a standard of ideals for other subjects following. it can be stated this American vieiw of procedure has found warm supporters in England and France, though there is also another view point which clings to the old pro cedure under the Vienna congress, whereby individual aspiration for territory should have . first consid eration. Vienna Congress Procedure. Those urging .that territorial questions .should come first say it is highly desirable to sign a peace treaty embodying the essential de tails at the earliest possible mo ment, so as to terminate the official war period under , which troops are held for the duration of the war, and railroads, telegraphs and other public utilities are similarly affected uotil peace is declared. According to this view, an early peace agree ment on essentials would release the, armies, including American troops holding the occupied re gions. Having secured an early agree ment on territorial and other prac tical details, it suggested ihe larger questions,' like a league of nations could come up "later for extended -discussion either by the peace congress or separate inter national congress to formulate the working details of the league. The view is chieflyHeld by those favor ing the old Vienna congress pro cedure of individual claims first, while the American viewpoint" is distinctly favorable to distinguish ing ideals first as the guiding prin ciple of the congress.

(By Associated Press.) Bad feeling has developed between the Prussians and Bavarians in the German army .withdrawing before the American army of occupation.
