German ambassador at Rome. will not
leave the italian capital until com
PEELED to do SO, according TO the Rome
correspondent of the Petit Journal.
a circumstantial story also is told
by the correspondent of a report cur
rent in Rome that when popular agita-
ton against former Premier Giolitti
was at it's height, a plot was formula
ted to kidnap Prince Won Buelow from
his residence, the Villa Malta, but that
the plan was abandoned when Signor
Giolitti left Rome.
The Petit Journals correspondent is
authority for the statement that Prince
Won Buelow has installed his aged
motherinlaw. Donna laura Minghetti
in the Villa Malta in the hope that the
property will not be confiscated so long
as it is occupied by an Italian woman.
He is said to have offered her the use
of the villa from the time he leaves
Rome until his return.
Another story is going the rounds
to the effect that Thursday Prince Won
BueloW sought an interview with Min
lister Sonnino. The latter, according to
the story, penciled his reply, which

Washington, May 24.-Is this.
in fact. to be a world war? That
is the question that Washington is
asking. Will Germany, Austria
and Turkey. now facing seven I:u-
rnnean powers-England, France,
Russia, italy, Belgium. Serbia and
Montenegro, not counting Portugal
and Japan in the background
soon have other enemies added to
her list?
All indications point to the early
of Roumania, Bulgaria
and Greece. The interests of these
slavic states are identical with
those of Russia in many ways. 1t
is further to their interest to push
the Turks out of Europe and to
help the allies in opening the Oar
danelles for Russia.
Should Germany refuse TO meet
the demands of the American gov
ernment, little doubt remains n a
the United States will become in
yolyed, though perhaps not active

he will lot back down.

Still Uncertain Where Italian
Army VIII De1iuer First Blow

Udine, Italy, (via Chiasso to PARISH
May 24,-From the Alps down to the
sea, the whole vast region has been
transformed into a huge military en-
campment. Everywhere are tents, gun
carriages and flags and the intense ac-
tivity which marks a military camp.
In the extended plains of Friuli,
stretching along the sea, Italian sem
tineis near the frontier can see the
ruins of Aauileia, a second Rome
founded by the Romans in 1871 b.. c.
The italian army officers have great
difficulty in restraining the soldiers
from crossing the frontier here, the men
being nXiou to conquer Friuli from
which came Berengarius. the first king
OF Italy.
The troops most anxious to fight are
the Alpine soldiers, who are of the
same type as the French Alpine chas-
seurs. These men number $4,000 and
they have been chosen from among the
strongest and bravest of the mountain
GERS. They are commanded by "A select
ed set of officers who know all the
secrets of the snow capped boundaries.

self in Libya, M. l.. Zuccari, who is
much admired by the troops: Nava,
well known for his energy, and Brusati,
a brother of Gen. Ugo Brusati, aid de
camp to the king.
The general opinion is that it would
be almost impossible for decisive ac-
ton through the well fortified Alpine
region of the province of Trent. where
an attack would la as it's only OBJ
ject the keeping there of a large con-
tingent of hostile troops. For the same
reason, a landing of Italian troops
might occur on the Dalmatian coast, it
is said, or some contingent might go to
help Montenegro and Serbia resume
their offensive.
The conflict may find it's solution In
the valley of the Isonzo rive in east
ern Friuli, according to military
critics. The Italians. it is said, may adj
vance with three main bodies from San
Giorgio, Pulmanova and Germans, pro-
ceeding towards Goritz, Gradisaa and
Monfalcone. having as their ultimate
object Trieste.

London, May 24.-Aside from the

they still retain the advantage.

ception Americans announced their in
tention to remain in Germany and not
to abandon the businesses in which
most of them are gagged.
The recent suggestion in London
newspapers that the American anbas-
sador in Berlin should be withdrawn as
a protest in case adequate satisfaction
was not given for the LuSitania affair
has been much discussed but there
seems to be slight disposition on the
part of the American business men to
close up their enterprises and withdraw
even in this case. There are only a
few isolated Instances of Americans de
parting as the result of the alarming

Washington,' ID. c., May 24.-Marked
differences Of opinion over the interna-

there has been any clash to warrant
belief of disruption of the cabinet. it is
r that Secretary Bryan has been

ing.
Mr.. Bryan Was opposed to the course
of the presidents note TO Berlin and
wanted the subject approached in less
drastic fashion. He also has been try
ing TO get a new note sent to England
on neutral shipments but the president
has turned him down, because he holds
the German problem should not be com
plicated with the one relating to the
