Copenhagen, Sept. 29—^Germany ha.s not announced her -willingness to evacuate territories she now occupies including Belgium, Chancellor Mich- ae'.is announced, according to Berlin ddsputches today. After the meeting of the main Rek-hs-tag committee yesterday, the di-sipatches said M.ichaelis made this formal announcement: “The statement that the Imperial government has already communicat ed to a hostile government announc ing its wi-l’iingness to evacuate oc cupied territory, thus abandoning -the most valuable advantages for peac^e negotiations, is untrue. “I declare that the Imperial gov ernment’s hands are free for eventua' peace negotiations. This also refers to Be’gium’. The disclaims above evidently re fers to a story emanating early this week from Berne, announcing receipt of official .dispatches there in which Germany ag>'eed to share in indemiil- cupied lands under certain conditions.
