EMBARGO ON MEAT EXPORTS
IS THREAT OF THE PACKERS
Demand Unrestricted Passage of Pro-
ducts to All Neutral Coun-
tries of Europe.

Washington, May 25.-Representa-
tives of the great meat packing in
dustry of the United States and South
America to-day threatened an embar-
go on exports to Great Britain and
her allies which may prove more ef-
fectual than the German submarine
blockade in starving the Englishmen
into submission Advisers from Ar
mour, Swift, Morris and Sllzberger
laid their vcase before the state de-
partment and declared that they con-
troll the meat supply from this hemi-
sphere and that if they decide to de-
clare an embargo on exports to Great
Britain and her allies starvation will
ensue.
It seems that the packers as indi-
Gated in another dispatch from Wash
ington are disguised with the way
the British fleet has stopped their
shipment into neutral European
countries in an Nnjustifa bic manner.
The packers declare that this is con-
trary to all rights and that their in
dustry is suffering grievous harm
from the activity of the fleet Of the
allies.
Their proposal is that unless Great
Britain yields to terms and allows
the exports from North and South
America unrestricted passage into
the neutral European countries, the
meat packers Of North and South
America will cut Off the supply OF
meat which is now largely feeding
the British people. Such course
they declare would starve England
unless her statesmen decided to yield

GERMANY ASKS FOR WEEK
TO CONSIDER her ANSWER
Considered Possible That Note Will
be Dispatched Saturday and Will
be Full Of Friendly Feeling.

London Eng, May 25.-A news
dispatch from Amsterdam says that
the German Imperial government has
decided to ask the United States gov
ernmeEt to give her another week in
which to consider and prepare the
note in reply to the recent communi-
cation of the United States in regard
20 submarine warfare which culmi-
aated in the attack on the Lusitania.
It is further declared in the Am
:erdam dispatch that everything pos
sible is being done by the German
government to prevent friction and
that to avoid further trouble the Ger
man submarine commanders are
lgain being instructed as to the exact
procedure to follow in attacking the
ships which they may destroy.
The note which is expected to be
forwarded on Saturday will be couch
I'd in friendly terms. The feeling of
the German people towards the
American government is becoming
calmer and it is expected that all pos
sible concessions will be made, al
hough it is believed that the Ger
man reply will point out that for
strategic reasons and as a matter Of
principle the Germans cannot openly
cease their submarine attacks.

u. s. DEEPLY INTERESTED;
ITALIAN ENTRY IS CRISIS
Austrian Government Joins Germany
in Asking Switzerland to
Look After Interests.

Italy's entrance into the war set
in motion Monday various branches
of official and diplomatic activity.
Count V. Macchi di Cellere the
italian ambassador, formally notified
the United States of Italy's declars!-
ton of war on Austria, and explain
ed informallyto Secretary Bryan and
Counsellor Lansing the contents OF a
note to be delivered to-day, giving
Italy's reasons for her action.
DR.. Constantin T. Dumba, the Aus
trian ambassador, also conferred
with Secretary Bryan, advising him
of the existence of a state Of war be-
tween hisecountry and Italy.
A neutrality proclamation similar
to those maze early in the war was
prepared for President Wilson's
signature, and will be issued to-day.
Secretary Bryan announced that
the American embassy at Vienna had
taken over the care Of Italian inter
ests there. Ambassador Thomas Mel
son Page advised the state depart
merN from Rome that Spain had been
entrusted with Austria's diplomatic
interests.
1t developed that while prepara-
tions had been made by the American
embassy at Rome to take over AUS
tria's affairs, the final decision OF
Austria was to place her interests IN
the same hands as those OF Ger
many, which had called on Spain.

will mean additional interests FOL
the United States to take care Of II

partment Monday, about the same
hour. Eddie Savoy, the negro mes
senger. who guards the entrance tc
| Secretary Bryan's door, escorted Mr.

BATTLESHIP TRIUMPH
SUNK IN DARDANELLES
British Warship Destroyed by Sub
marine While Supporting
Landing Parties.

The British battleship Triumph
has been sunk in the Dardanelles.
The official announcement was made
at London Wednesday night.
The disaster 10 the Triumph is de-
scribed in a brief statement by the
admiralty, which says that while op-
Grating in support Of the Australian
and New Zealand forces on the shore
Of the Gallipoli peninsula the Trl-
umph was torpedoed by submarine
and sank shortly afterwards. Most
-ot the officers and men, including the
captain and commander are reported
to have been saved.
The submarine was chased by de-
stroyers and patrolling small craft
until dark.
The battleship Triumph was built
at Barrow in 1902 for Chile, but was
purchased by Great Bri'a in 1908.
She was laid down under the name
of Libertad.
Since the present war broke out
the Triumph has been, in operation
in both Far Elstern and European
waters. AS flagship of the British
Asiatic squadron she participated in
the bonIbardment of the German base
Of Tsingtau, China, last October and
was reported to have been damaged
by shell fire Of the German forts.
In the latter part Of April the Tri-
umph lombard d the Turkish trench
es on the western end Of the. CALI.
poll peninsula and afterwards went
into the Dardanelles to shell the
trenches from a different angle. Here
she came under the fire of Turkish
howitzer battery on the Asiatic shore
which dropped sixteen shells around
her and threw three missiles or
board. Little damage was done by
the shells, however, and only two
men were drowned. The battleshiI
silenced the Turkish battery before
retiring.
A few days later. while landing
operations were proceeding, the Tri
umph, with other well known war
ships, in addition to covering thu
landing bombarded the forts in th'
Dardanelles to prevent reinforce
ments reaching the Turks from thu
Sea of Marmora The Triumph wa

during this bombardment.

say whether the submarine was Turk

ASOULTH FACES DIFFICULTIES
Premier Has Staggering Burden in
ReOrganiZinS Cabinet.

A dispatch from London Monday
says Premier AsqUith is face TO face
with staggering difficulties in re-
alistic basis. Winston Churchill
organizing his cabinet along a nation
whose break with Sir Robert Fisher
precipitated the crisis is understood
to be getting ready TO 80 to the front
He has resigned as first lord OF the
admiralty
Baron Fisher absolutely refuses to
accept the post OF the admiraltyship
unless given absolute power. The
views Of the veteran sea fighter are
we'll known and it is plainly evident
that if he is to 2ssume chief COM
mand he will take full responsibility
upon himself. He positively states
that he must be in command.
