RUSSIA WILL NOT SUE FOR MERCY.
BUT WILL FIGHT TO BITTER END. IF GERMANS DON'T AGREE TO RUSSIA'S TERMS. \ Received Jan. 11,11.20 p.m. - Times Service. Petrograd, Jan. 11. Trotsky, addressing the' representatives of the Central Powers at Brest Litovsk, announced that he and his colleagues had not come as representatives of a defeated nation. They had no intention of suing for mercy. They remained true to the revolution, and advocated an independent Russia. If the Imperialists refused to me«t the people's wishes, the Central European democracies would put in a weighty word on their behalf, and not suffer young Russia to be wiped from the face of the earth. Failing that, the Russians would fight to the bitter end, not only in the trenches, but everywhere, barricading every step of their oppressors. PEACE WITH BULGARIA. JJew York, Jan. 10. It is reported that Russia and Bulgaria have signed a separate peace.
