S4OO FOR BROKEN JAW.
Mr.. Gillespie Made No Defense in
Holloran's s Assault Case.

MONTPELIER, July 10. The ia
nous case of John 2. HolIoran against
Gillespie of Montpelier, civil action
for assault and battery, was tried in
city court and an appeal taken to the
county court
This suit was the result of an argu-
mcnt at the supper table in a Mont
peiier boarding house several months
ago over the all important question of
screens in the windows of New York
saloons.
1t was claimed that Holloran came
into the argument and that one of the
women boarders told him they were
talking to him and while he was reach
ing for a glass of water, it is said,
which Mrs. Gillespie thought looked
suspicious, she threw a cup of tea III
his face, and Mr.. Gillespie, it was al
legged followed up the tea party by
landing one on Holloran S jaw that
made supper that night impossible,
and it was alleged it cracked that i'm
portant part of his face so that he
couldn t eat pie for several weeks
No arguments were made although
it was suggested by G. L. Hunt that
the plaintiff s attorney thought Mr.
Holloran was entitled to the full
amount of the suit namely $500 The
court, however, found for Holloran to
the amount of $500 and costs.

NO SURRENDER OF
AMERICAN RIGHTS
Administrations Stand to Be Firm, According to-
View of Officials in Washington DisavowaI Of
Lusitania Affair Brings Situation to Grave and
Critical Point

WASHINGTON, July 12.-Work was be-
gun today by Secretary Lansing on the
draft of the note to be sent to the German
government expressing the attitude Of the
United States towards the German subma-
tine warfare.
When it is completed there will be a
consultation between Secretary Lansing
aud President Wilson, who will decide the
policy to be pursued.
No intimation is obtanable as yet as to
:he course the American government will
follow, but there is every indication in
official quarters that the relations between
Germany and the United States have be
rome 50 strained as to make it necessary
to weigh carefully the phraseology of the
next communication.
That there is to be no surrender of
American rights it is known as practically
certain, according to the view taken by
officials
just what steps viii he taken by the
United States as the result of the German
failure to disavow the Lusitana affair Is
most uncertain.
1t is this issue that has brought the sit
Iation to a grave and critical point

LONDON, July12-There is calm in the

Of the AustroItalian front, where the
Italians claim some success.
f'etrograd is elated at the Russian sue
cess over the Austrians, who are said to
have lost one of the three corps which be-
gan the advance against Lublin
Austrian operations against the Warsaw
railroads have been checked, if not foiled.
which means that the threatened advance
on Warsaw is a little less dangerous now.
A despatch from Austrian headquarters
in Galicia explains the apparent lull in
advance by asserting that the Teutonic al
lies fixed Lemberg as the objective of the
campaign, with the idea of establishing
themselves there in order to use part Of
their troops elsewhere. 1t is claimed this
has been done. 1t is further explained
that the Austrians proceeded beyond the
point, but encountering unexpected oppo-
sition they retired and have resisted all
further Russian attacks

today whether the occupation of Mexico
City by Carranza would affect the question
OF recognition, declared no definite consid-
Grafton had been given the subject. They
said, however, that it always looks better
when one party has become dominant.
The American government has been
waiting for one of the forces to get M a
government giving promise of stability
The United States now will watch care
fully the attitude and policy of the Car
rama government in Mexico City, but there
will be no decision for some time as to
any change of policy on account of the
pressing nature Of the German situation.
Heretofore the possession of Mexico City
has not been regarded of much Importance
/ because Of frequent changes in government.
! but there are now indications that if Gen.
Carranza can better his position by further
acquisition Of territory north of the capi-
tai and then reopening communication with
the American border, the chances of OBJ
