SAYS ALLIED FORCES
MUST QUIT GALLIP0LI

Paris, Dec. s.-An Allied army o.
100000 or more will easily be avail
able for operations In the Balkans
In the spring, according to General
De La CrolI, military critic Of the
Temps"
There are 100000 troops Of the
Allies at Salonica and 100000 Brit
ish at the Dardanelles could be
transferred thence. says General De
La Croix, who adds that unless the
British army evacuates the GallipOii
Peninsula the chances are ninety
nine out of hundred that within
two or three months they would be
thrown into the sea"
Looking into the future, he mill
tary writer says that to these $780,
900 can be added a recognized
Serbian army of 100000, and pos
sibly $4,000 Italians, for a spring
campaign, besides such other forces
as may be sent from the West in the
meantime.

BRITAIN YIELDS
IN HOOKING CASE
Will Seize No TranSatlan-
tic Co.'S Ships Pending
Prize Court Decision.
From Tho Tribune bureau.


Washington, Dec. 9.--The State De-
partment announced to-day that it had
reached an agreement with the British
government concerning the vessels OF
the American Transatlantic Company.
some Of which have been seized and
threatened with requisition as German
owned.
Great Britain has agreed. in response
TO the American protest, TO make a test
case of the Hooking and Genesee, now
in prize court at London, pending the
decision of which no more of the COM
pany's ships will be seized unless they
carry contraband. or try TO violate the
blockade. The Kankakee, which had
also been seized, is released on bail.
The State Department has been en-
barrassed by the seizure OF the vessels
because Of the unsatisfactory ship
registry laws Of the United States. The
law does not permit the government to
inqure into the actual ownership OF
vessels before granting registry.
Great Britain contends that Richard
Wagner. president of the line, is, IN
fact. acting for German interests. The
Transatlantic Company has filed with
the State Department affidavits from its
stockholders in an effort TO prove that
every share is owned by citizens Of the
United States.
New legislation compelling ship "n-
ers to submit proofs of American own
ership is under consideration. The
State Department believes the law
should be framed in such a way that
the American flag on vessel would act
as a guarantee against molestation.

U. S. TO GET GERMAN DYES
Britain Gives Consent to Let Teutons
Export a Small Amount.

Washington, Dec. Great Britain
has announced it's willingness to permit
expectation from Germany of sufficient
dyestuffs to supply the immediate
needs of American industries. Nego-
tiations with Germany based upon this
assurance have been begun informally
by the State Department with view
OF persuading the imperial government
to permit the expectation Of dyestuts
without receiving concessions, which 1t
heretofore has demanded. Of foodstufs
or cotton from the United States.
Great Britain has consistently re-
fused to allow Germany to import these
commodities. Recently, however, 1t
assented to the shipment OF tobacco
from the United States through neu-
trail ports. State Department officials
hope TO effect an exchange o. tobacco
for dyestuffs.

ADDS YEAR TO PARLIAMENT
Bill Offered TO Extend Its Term to
January 81, 1917.

London, Dec. "a bill TO continue
the present Parliament beyond the i've
wear period and postpone general
election during the war was introduced
in the Houte of Commons to-day by
Sir John Simon, Secretary of State for
Home Affairs. II makes the life Of the
present Parliament six instead Of five
years, extending it to January 81, 1917,
and treats the year 1916 for the pur-
poses of the active Parliament as If 1t
followed Immediately on 1914.
This legal fiction, providing that the
sessions Of 1914 and 1916 shall be re-
garded as successive sessions. keeps
olive the plural voting bill. which would
otherwise have been buried with other
controversial matter on account Of the
war. This bill is one OF the pet meas
ures of the Liberals, introduced under
the act which declares that a bill which
has thrice passed the House Of Com
mons in successive sessions shall be
come q law, despite the opposition OF
the House Of Lords. The bill already
has passed the House twice.

whitney Warren, the architect. who

by George Won L. Meyer.

PLAN ALLIED PARLIAMENT
Members of French and British Bodies
Talk of Joint Meeting.

London, Dec. 1O.-Attention is being
directed to a movement for closer CO.
operation between the British and
French Houses Of Parliament by a con-
ference held at the House of Commons
Yesterday between Franklin Bouillon,
ce-president of the Foreign Affairs
Committee Of the Chamber Of Depu-
ties; the British government whip,
John W. Gulland, and other members
Of the Commons, to discuss the posi-
oiity of a joint meeting of the House
Of Commons and the French Chamber
Of Deputies.
1t is understood that no decision
was reached. The newspapers regard
UGH a plan unlikely of fulflment. on
account of practical difficulties, but say
hat some method of cooperation is
likely to result from the conference.

Chief Steward Schaade of the Porto
RICO liner Carolina, also American
owned. was taken from that vessel last
night.
Washington, Dec. 9.-Word that the
American steamers Coamo and Caro-
lima had been stopped by French
man fremen had been taken off the
Coamo elected no excitement from
officials. The right Of a belligerent
warship TO stop, visit and search
american ships at sea under certain
circumstances, is not questioned. IL
was assumed that the vessel was
stopped outside the three-mile terri
torial limit OF Porto Rico.
German seaman aboard an Ameri-
can vessel on the high seas is immune
from arrest by Germany's enemies, in
he view Of the State Department, un-
ies5 ii can be shown that he is an ac-
tive member Of German naval or mill
cary forces.
Department officials said the captured
men. provided they we're not units IN
he German fighting forces, were as
much entitled to American protection
as they would have been on American
soil.
The department tonight had no Of
.;cial advices of the seizures, and un-
oil such adyices are received no action
will be taken. II was pointed out by
officials, however, that the United
States was on record as asserting in
positive terms the immunity VI PCT
sons of whatever nationality aboard
American ships. This position was
taken as recently as November, 1914, in
a successful protest against the action
OF French cruiser in forcibly remov-
ing August Pipembrink, a German,
from the American steamer Windber.
In it's representation of that case the
State Department held that the sailors

citizen. was without justification un-
der international law, and pointed to
the Trent case during the American
Civil War, in which Confe derate Com
missioners Mason and Slidell, having
been taken by Federal cruiser from
a British merchantmen, were released,
cnd the United States made amends to
Great Britain.
