BRITISH SHIP
 |S DESTROYED Accidental Explosion On Princess Irene Causes Death of 321 Men
 -OnIy One Survivor.

SHEERNESS, Eng, May 2S.-The British steamer Princess Irene, which has been used by the military authorities as a transport, was acci- dentally blown up here today by the explosion of war munitions stored in her hold.
 Three hundred and twenty-one men on the ship were blown to pieces, while only one survivor is left to tell the tale. Just how the accident happened will never be known. The big ship was shattered by the force of the explosion. Buildings in the city were shaken and plate glass fronts broken.
 The authorities started at once to gather up the remains of the men who were killed, but the force of the explosion was such that but few of the bodies can be found.

FRENCH LINER
 |S REACHED
Report That Passengers Are All Safe -Nine Hundred On the Ship
 Big Boat Dynamited.

NANTES, France, May 2S.-The big French transatlantic steamer Cham pagne, operating between New York and French ports, is on the beach near St. Naziare, but the passengers, totaling 900, are all reported safe and are being taken ashore. Several war ships are standing by aiding in the transfer of the passengers. The crew expect to float the ship.
 One passenger is under arrest and in his baggage was found several big bombs capable of destroying the ship.
 The government had been warned last February that spies intended to destroy the liner and extra precau tions have been taken to watch all passengers and baggage and all ship ments of freight was subjected to close examination resulting in the ar. rest on this trip of the passenger and his bombs.
 It is reported that the boat was beached by the commander of the ship following an explosion which tore big hole in the hull of the ship and threatened to sink the yes sel unless it were beached

LONDON, May 2S.-A report re- ceived here today from The Hague indicates that the German foreign of fee will make it's reply to President Wilson's note on the sinking of the Lusitania tomorrow and that the re- ply will not be as satisfactory as at first indicated.
 The German foreign office will make a demand upon the American government to prove that the Lusi tania did not carry ammunition Foreign Secretary Jargow will also temporize in an effort to gain time as it is realized by the military pow CT in Germany that a loss of prestige at home and among the neutral na tions may follow the granting of com plete satisfaction to the United States because of the loss of Americans on British merchant ship which car ried munitions of war to the enemies of Germany.

RUSSIANS NEED
 MORE SUPPLIES
Only Hope Seems Via Dardane''es- Supplies Going Now Via Siberia,
 Long and Slow Route.

LONDON, May 2S.-The great need of supplies by the Rususian army has caused the admiralty to seek some new avenue by which supplies can be sent to Russia. Practically the bulk of the war munitions not manufac- tured in Ruussia are going to that country via Siberia from the United States and Japan
 Some talk has been heard of an effort to open a port in Montenegro and sending supplies through Siberia, and Rumania, but the means of trans portation across the country are poor and the opportunity for Austrian sub marines to sink the transports with the war supplies is so great that it is hardly expected the Montenegrin route will be adopted. The efforts to open the Dardanelles will be contin- ued in spite of the heavy losses in ships, as it is realized that with the fall of the Dardanelles and Constan- V inople that Russian demands can be fulfilled and the immense body of Russian troops properly outfitted and equipped so that the work of crush ing German-Austrian resistance can be continued.

BECKER OFFERS
 A CONFESSION Will Tell On Higherups If Granted Life Sentence-Little Hope Left
 for the Condemned Man.

NEW YORK, May 2S.-The dis trict attorney announced today that the offer of a confession by friends of former Police Lieutenant Becker, which would involve many men high up in the police department of the city and also involve many politicians and city officials under the last ad- ministration some of whom are still in1 the employ of the city, would not sal fs Becker from the death chair.
 While admitting that the district attorney would like to secure the in formation and especially enough evi. 'dence to reach the men higher up, yet the idistrict attorney felt that the example of the execution of Beck. CT would have a good effect on such of the police force as were likely to graft on the underworld residents in the city and allow gambling in the city.
 Little hope is held out to friends of Becker as Governor Whitman is not expected to commute the sen tence, which he fought for many years to have passed.

FAIRBANKS, May 2S.-The Tanana club bar was closed last night by vote of the directors. Henceforth drinks for the club will be sent up from the Buffet saloon on the ground floor of the same building.
 Ever since the announcement Of the decision of the Nome club case by the circuit court of appeals the question of future policy has been the subject of constant discussion at the club. Some members wanted to take out retail license, but the ma jority could not figure that the amount of business in the drink line would justify it. Accordingly the di- rectors took action last night as stat. ed.

German government will not give a satisfactory reply to the note sent by President Wilson regarding the Lusi- tania. Administration officials still insist that the reply will be satisfac- tory and that the United States will not be added among the nations fight ing against Germany. High govern ment officials refuse to make any comment, but much increased activity has been noted at the army and navy building, indicating preparations for hostilities should it become neces. sary for the country to go to war to maintain it's rights on the high seas.
 Germans Do Not Expect War.
 1t is stated here that in Germany the impression is that the United States is so poorly equipped to en- ter war that the nation will not join the Allies and that the protest is largely a bluff which the kaiser's government can call. Diplomats state that when the fact is realized in Ger. many that President Wilson is in earnest and that he has the support of the people in his protest that Ger many wilt grant the satisfaction asked.

British Submarine At ConstantinopIe.
 LONDON, May 2S.-A British sub- marine successfully passed through the Dardanelles today, sunk Turk ish gunboat in the Sea of Marmora, and also .torpedoed and sunk Turk ish supply ship which was entering the harbor at Constantinople. The commander of the submarine reports that his efforts to sink a Turkish transport loaded with troops was foiled by the arrival of several de- stroyers which forced him to seek safety by diving and when his ship reappeared on the surface the trans port had escaped. The submarine re- turned through the Dardanelles in safety and when the exploit became known to the officers and sailors of the fleet the boat was given rous, ing reception.

LONDON, May 28.-The battleship Majestic was sunk today by Turk ish submarine off the Dardanelles and many of the crew of 800 were drown ed. The submarine appeared a few moments near the big warship and then let drive a torpedo which struck amidships, causing the battleship to sink in twenty minutes.
 Part of Crew Saved.
 Following the rules set down by the admiralty the fast torpedo ships rush. ed to the scene and the submarine immediately disappeared. The destroy CTS then picked up as many of the crew as possible. Most of the crew had an opportunity to put on life belts before the boat went down and the warships picked them up.
 Losses Brighten People.
 The constant loss of warships through the activity of the subma, rines of the enemy has caused sur pise and worry among the people, who look to the navy for protection and fear that if the activities of under water fighting ships continues the fleet will be brought down to equal that of Germany.

MANY INVITED
 SEE HANGING With State Officials, Invited To Attend Hanging of Five.

PHOENIX, Ariz., May 2S.-Sixty invitations have been issued for tue hanging of five Mexicans who die here today following the refusal of the state Board of Pardons to issue a pardon or commute the sentences of the men.
 The invited guests include news papermen, doctors and state officials. The men will die one following the other and the executions will require .several hours.
 Gen. Villa, provisional president of Mexico, has interested himself in the cases of the Mexicans and has re. quested Secretary Bryan to inter- vene and save the necks of the con- victed men. Just what will result is unknown but as the State Depart ment is anxious for the aid and sup port of Villa at times when Ameri- cans are in danger in northern Mex ico, and it is possible that the State Department will make some effort to secure a reprieve for the men and follow that with an investigation,
 Senate Refuses To Aid Gov. Hunt.
 PHOENIX, Ariz., May 2S.-In spite of the personal appeal made by Gov ernor Hunt to the state senate ask ing that body to pass resolution calling on the State Board of Pardons to stop the hanging of the five Mex jeans today the upper house refused to comply.
 Seek Aid of Federal Courts.
 It is known this morning that the governor and his friends opposed to the hangings have started the work of securing aid from the federal courts. Just how they will accomplish this is not known, but some effort will be made to delay the executions in order that the federal courts may act.
