("The world will be astonished by Mlie tnoderuiion of the German peace ! terms," saw! the General Anzeiger of ' Dusseldorf, Germany; quoting in a re cent -tlespaich from Berlin a state ment given out to foreign correspond ents in Berlin. For several weeks it has been intimated that Germany iu;i; ht soon make another peace offer, and recent information from Berlin showed that Chancellor Von Befh manu-IIoliweg was expected soon to make an announcement in regard to 'international questions, although here tofore no statement has conie from a responsible quarter that a peace offer actually would be mado.
