When the sitting was resumed after a brief postponement, a draft of the address to the 2C.tmg was read. It said the result of th r had been such as to place the IIn danger. It stated that Huna riust have full autonoey. "Hungary feels herself to be in full accord "with the. ideas spreatding throughout the world along the lines of the noble principles of President Wilson's address," the address continued. "Hungary must be completely independent, must have general electoral suffrage and the relations between nationalities in the country must be gOpverned by the principles enunciated by President Wilson. "Hungary Is in danger of invasion. Hungarian troops must be brought back and nonhungarian troops sent away." Dr. Wekerle said: "The protection rf our integrity as a state and the main., tenance of our unity are tasks we must accomplish at all costs. We desire to grant individual rights to the different nationalities who have lived among us for a thousand years. We are not contradicting our traditional point of view in accepting President Wilson's principles. As far as absolute equality of rights to individuals and the defense of our integrity and the unity of the state will permit we will willingly satisfy the claims of different nationalities." U. S. AWAITS CRASH. WASHINGTON. Oct. 18.-Lttle new information reached WVashington today about the developments going forward in Germany upon which will depend the nature and time of the next move toward peace. There is no evidence here of great disappointment over the falure of a new note to come from Berlin as quickly as persistent reports through neutral countries have Indicated it might be expected. The attitude in Washington is one of confident watihg for the break that ultimately must come, even though another winter and spring campaign may be necessary to bring it a pout. Every one is watching the western front. The great retreat of the Germans there is being carried out without demoralization, indicating that discipline and fight still is left in the Kaiser's war machine. It is realised that a successful stand before the German borders are reached may govern the tgne of the next diplomatic communication and give the war lords another period of grace. What is r, o appeningaein Austria-Hungary is observed with interest, though it is regarded as of secondary importance. Emperor Charles's proclamation of federalization of Austria-does not materially change the situation. Federalisation can not save the dual monarchy. An lmportent weakness noted in the Emperor's desperate effort to save his throne is his determination to keep the Austrian Poles out of an independent Poland. The situation of Roumania with regard to Transylvania and Bukowina.is one that 's attracting the attention of statesmen of the entente in consideration of the impending dissolution of the Austrian empire. Ninety per cent or more of the people of Transylvaata are Roumanian by descent and sympathy. They were once a part of Roumania and have been oppressed by the Hungarians for generations. They are not allowed a representative vote on any question and the Roumanian schools in the district nave been abolished by the Magyars in an effort to crush any national feeling.
