Talk of peace, as reflected In the German newspapers, is indoflnlate and uncertain, although rumors of impending developments on this line appear to attract more attention in Germany and Austria than America's entry into the war. Premier Tisza of Hungary in an Easter article In a Budapest weekly writes that he thinks he sees signs of the dawn of jieaco on the Easter horizon, though may possibly wilder onflugrations flame up. The fortress walls of our enemies Are beginning to show cracks, he Vrtles. "The events in Russia portend islmllar developments elsewhere." Evidently the premier bad Italy in mind.

The Vorwaerts is happy in the belief that reform of the Prussian franchise will be undertaken during the war. Jt calls attention to Austria-Hungarwith a scathing arraignment of conditions in one country ruled with- out parliamentary institutions during the war. , The Vorwaerta also criticizes sharply the German nationalist party, saying it is attempting without .parliamentary assent to assure maintenance of dominion over y non-Germa- races. REPUBLICS OF 80UTH WANT WAR 8outh and Central America Will Probably Line Up With the United States. Early entrance of of the South and Central American nations into the war against Germany ia regarded here as practically certain. Brazil, aroused by the sinking of her steamship Parana, is expected to become a belligerent this week and It ia assumed that her lead will be followed promptly by other Washington. several countries. - , Reports of divided opinion in Argentina have given officials here little encouragement to look for aggressive action by that country.' Active support of the United States by at least two of the live central American republics and possibly by four would not be surprising.. Official reports that Estrada Cabrera, president of Guatemala, is contemplating seriously a break with Germany have been received. So long as Mexico's course Is undefined, unusual interest Is attached to the position of the central American governments, especially Guatemala, controlling the southern frontier of Mexico. In the event of .the development of an unfriendly situation In Mexico, it is realized that Guatemala's role would be far from unimportant. It Is known that earnest efforts have been made by counselors of Cabrera to Induce him to enter promptly into the war. If he does place hla country In the list, it la expected that Nicaragua will quickly follow and that the between long standing difficulties those two countries and Salvador and Honduras may be awept away In a desire to present a united Central Star-Spangle- d MICHAEL V.

Not a penny of profit, it was author Itatively stated, will be expected or received by this country on the loan. The loan will be America's immediate contribution to the allied cause, with the promise of other bountiful contributions of money, munitions and food stuffs to come as needed.

Legislation providing for the issue will be Introduced In congress speed ily. not later than next week, and within thirty days, possibly before the end of the present month, a substantial portion of the great loan is expected to be available for the entente govv ernments.

The operations are still In progress. The British casualties are reported alight Probably the greatest gains were made on a twelve-mil- e front from Givenchy-En-Gohellnorth of Arras, to southeast of Arras. Here defenses of all kinds, some of them most heavily fortified, were stormed and captured by the Canadians. Notable among the positions Is the famous ridge, center of many sanguinary encounters. The German line was penetrated to a depth of from two to three miles during Monday, and at nightfall King Georges men were still pressing forward. The element of surprise evidently played a prominent part in the British victory, for along the entire front recently there has been nothing more than small encounters and artillery duels. The thrust of the British was quick and violent, gauged by the rapid sweep they made against positions that previously had been considered almost impregnable. The Canadians captured 2,000 prisoners.

Baron Erich Zwledlnek, the Austrian charge, asked the state department on April 9 for passports for himself, his staff and the Austrian consular force in this country; and simultaneously American Minister Stovall reported from Berne that Austria had announced the break in relations to the American embassy in Vienna the previously day. Immediately the tieasury department ordered the seizure of all Austrian merchant ships in American harbors. The Austrian crews were taken off and sent to immigration stations and American guards put on board. The measure was explained as purely one of precaution, but It is realized that It may be interpreted by Austria as an act of war. In a similar situation, after the break with Germany, no ships were seized until a state of war actually had been declared. Whether Bulgaria and Turkey are preparing to follow suit still is unknown, but officials generally believe that sooner or later they will do so. Bulgarian Minister Panaretoff called on Secretary Lansing lAte Monday to ask if this government bad any Information from Sofia, but wag told none had been received- - Both Bulgaria and Turkey are believed here to be weary of the war, but German domination of the central European alliance Is expected to drive them, as It drove Austria, to break with Germany's new enemy. Telegrams prepared a week ago in anticipation of Monday's development have been sent to American diplomatic and consular officials abroad Instructing them to wind up their conduct of entente Interests in Austria, and of Austrian interests in entente countries. Spain will take over American interests in Austria and Sweden will assume Austrian Interests here. Safe conduct for the former Austrian officials on their homeward trip will be sought at once from the BritWith ish and French governments. them will go Count Tarnow Tarnow-ski- , the newly appointed Austrian ambassador, who arriveu in New York on the day Germany announced her campaign of ruthiessnesa, but whose credentials President Wilson has refused to accept while negotiations proceeded to develop how fully the Vienna government Indorsed the submarine policy of her ally.
