STATE DEPARTMENT

MTOANCONA AFFAIR
By Bond P. Geddes.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Washington, Nov. l2.-If reports con-
cerning the torpedoing of the italian
liner Ancona off the Tunis coast con-
tinue to conflict, an inquiry probably
will be directed by the state depart
ment today Austria and Germany ask
ing the official versions of their ad-
miralties.
Secretary of State Lansing submit

Ambassador Thomas Nelson Page at
Rome, and from consuls in the Ancona
zone. Meantime, officials suspended
Judgment, preferring to have the con-
flict in testimony cleared up first.
The tangled reports concerning the
nationality of the sea diver gave much
concern. This question is most i'm
portant in view of the warning to Ger
many that recurrence of the Lusi-
tania incident would be considered
/" "delibentely unfriendly." "
Press reports indicating that the at
tacking submarine rained death upon
passengers after they took to the life

GRAND DUKE WINS IN
PERSIAN CAMPAIGN
Reports From Far East Indi-
cate That Turks Have
Been Defeated
By j. w. T. Mason.
(Written for the United Pre-

(Written for the United Press.)
New York, Nov. l2.-Grand Duke
Nicholas, cnce leader of the main Rus
sian armies, has again come into prom
inence by directing the campaign in
northern Persia and retrieving the only
Turkish success. Petrograd announced
that the Russians, under the grand duke
are within As miles of Teheran and that
the enemies of Russia are preparing to
flee
Apparently this situation developed
from a surprise sprung by the grand
duke. Moreover, probably the Ottoman
discipline deteriorated in the months
since the Turks occupied northern Per-
sia or else the Gallipoli and Thrace
operations depleted their supply of am
munition. Possibly even the duke $ ex-
upedtion met with no resistance.
If Tehrean falls, the grand duke will
largely wipe out the disgrace of his re-
moval from the supreme command in
Russia. The victory will be very i'm
portant for Russia and will greatly de-
press Constantinople. Northern Persia
has practically been a Russian posses
sion, but the Turks have long been
ambitious to make it an Ottoman depen'
dency.

Washington, Nov. 12.-Though Pres

months-it was positively stated that
the session was not due to any crisi,
over the sinking of the liner Ancona
by u submarine. He will hold these
meetings every Tuesday and Friday
hereafter, and they promise to be OF
vital Importance.
Because of the conflicting reports in
the Ancona case, the cabinet did moi
take up this question at all today.
1t was understood that the meeting
was given up chiefly to the question OF
the administration military prepared
ness program. The president, it wa,
said, presented an outline Of his plan
and members reported that the cabinet
as n whole stands behind him on hi,
proposals.
The president S first message to con
gress probably will deal almost entirely
with the subject of increased appropr
ations for the army and navy. Mean
time, the cabinet mas under considera

revenues wherewith to supply the large
amounts.
