it was stated, could be just as well based on presumption. Questions of policy must be given consideration however, officials said, because in en- deavoring to supply German warships at sea Captain BoyEd would have been acting in compliance with the ex- pressed views of his government to the United States. At the time the al !. legged offenses occurred no penalty had been provided in municipal law against the provisioning of belligerent war ships and only in closing hours of the last session of Congress was such a measure enacted.
 GERMAN NOTE
 Previously the question was a moot point between the United States and Germany. The German government served notice through Count Won Bern storff in a note dated December 15 1914. that:
 The position taken by the govern ment of the United States as to the de- livery of coal and other necessaries to warships of the belligerent states constituting violation of neutrality is, in the opinion of the imperial Ger man government, untenable in inter national law. Only when con traband trade would turn the ports into bases of German military opera tions would the stoppage of the trade of those vessels become a duty. Such, perhaps, would be the case if the Ger mans kept coal depots in the port, or if the vessels called at the port in regular voyages on the way to German naval forces, but it stands to reason that one merchant vessel occasionally sailing with coal or supplies for Ger man warships does not turn a neutral port into German point of support contrary to neutrality"
 In answer to this the Secretary of State denied that any marchant vessels had been refused clearance, as com plained of by the German ambassador although certain detentions had been made to investigate the bona fide char acter of destinations and intentions of the vessels. He added that "the es- sential idea of neutral territory becom- ing a base of naval operations by a bel ligerent, Is, in the opinion of this gov ernment, repeated departure from such territory of merchant vessels laden with fuel or supplies for belligerent warships at sea-"

FINDING ON DEATH OF
 MISS CARRIE POLLARD
Young Waterbury Woman Who Lost
 Life in Fire at New Haven.

New Haven, Conn, Jan. 11.-Coroner Eli Mix today handed down a finding, holding that the death of Miss Carrie Pollard of Waterbury in 2. fire at PA Orange street, this city, on December 24. was not caused by the criminal act, omission or carelessness of any other person or persons.
 Miss Pollard had been visiting 8 friend who occupied 2. room on the fourth floor Of the building. The fire started in q tailoring establishment on the first floor, the coroner says, and spread so rapidly through the build inS that the woman was unable to escape to the floors below. Upon the arrival of the firemen nothing could be seen above the first floor. on ac- count of the dense smoke which en- yeloped the entire,s front of the build ing.
 Through clouds of ~ dense. black smoke the report says. a ladder was erected, but before 1t was placed, de- ceased had evidently become uncon- scious. her cries for help had eased and 1t was impossible to determine what floor decea sed was on. As the volume of smoke decreased, the body of the deceased was seen lying over the sill of the window, The firemen endeavored to keep a stream of water over her body, and later it fell to the ground below, when it was found that her skull was fractured and her head, arms and trunk badly burned

COMMANDERS TELL OF WAR
In Response to Request From Newspaper Correspondents Attached to Austro-Hungaran General Army Head. quarters in the Field. ss.xx4snss

Vienna, Austria, Dec. 26 CCorrespon- dence of The Associated Press) ).-1n response to request from newspaper correspondents attached to the Aus tr1an Hungarian general army head quarters in the field, the various army commanders of the Austro- Hungarian troops operating in Galicia, Poland and SerVia have given the following expressions of opinion of the troops commanded by them:
 Archduke Joseph Ferdinand, com nanding the fourth army, said:
 Before the value of the troops un- der my command can be considered, attention must be drawn. to the fact that this campaign has demanded un- usual exertions, both in marching and on the firing line But while the phy- sical demands on the men have been enormous, the mental and nervous ca pacity of the officers also has been severely taxed. The fourth army has done extraordinarily well in these re- spects.
 Tn four months it has participated in five great battles, of which the shortest lasted eight days and the Yongest twenty-six. The intervals be- with long n1arelles over bad roads in very indictment weather. During this entire period the army was out of con tact with the enemy for only six days, this constitutin~ the only real oppor- tunity to obtain a rest.
 '"The conduct of the troops between marches and battles has been excellent. They have at all times given the best that was in them. Our troops are best in the offensive and this the Russians have already acknowledged. A Russian staff officer who was taken prisoner expressed himself to the effect that the famous attacks of the Japanese were weak performances alongside those of our men. The bravery and death -defying dash of our troops, no matter what race they are of. are without example. Everything possible has been done by the enemy to induce our soldiers of Slav origin to become disloyal. They have rema ined immune to these efforts.

PRIEST DECLINED GIFT,
 RAISED BY PARISHHONERS
Sent to Suffering and Wounded Sol diera in Poland.

Rev. StanisIaus Federkiewicz, for merly Of Colchester, who has been transferred from St. MaTy's Star of the Sea parish of New London, where he has been looking after the spiritual welfare of the Polish parishioners, to Thou1psonviIle. where he will be pastor of the new Polish parish, said farewell to his charges at the 9 o'clock mass in the New London church basement chapel Sunday morning. Father Fed erkiewicz. though he has been in New London but 3. year. has won the love and respect of the Polish members of St. Mary's, and there was deep regret at his departure.
 At the meeting of the Kosciuszki so- Ciety Sunday, at which Rev. FT Fed erkiewicz was present, a. purse of $247 was subscribed in a. short time for presentation to the priest. When ap- prised of the testimonial. he declined to accept 1t, though thanking the members for their expression of good will, but requested that they send it instead to Poland for the benefit of i'll and wounded Russian Poles engaged in the war. This will be done by the society members in T, few days.
 Father FHederkiewicz has frequently assisted at the forty hours devotion and other special services in St. Jo- sepll's church, Norwich.

"The health of our troops is very good, although, naturally, the hard ships Of the campaign eliminated the weak element in them. The number of fallen officers is great. Wounds are for the greater part light, and most of the wounded, return to the front. Sani- taTsy measures are complete. Our army surgeons have demonstrated both their technical proficiency and loyalty to the service. The equipment of the men is such that they will have no difficulty meeting the rigors of the winter"
 Eduard Won Boehm Ernlilli, infantry general and commander of the second army, said:
 The troops have distinguished themselves through their bravery and stamina. They are always in the best of spirits and confident that victory NiIi be theirs in the end They are and sanitary arrangements work fault lesSly. Health conditions are unusual ly good and the cholera. serum has proved it's --eat value. The men are amply protected against the, winter weather and are gettp~ many com forts from their homes. Their relations with their German comrades are the best possible"
 Svetozar Borocvio Non Boina, in fantry general and commander of the third army, said:
 ''The work of our troops is beyond praise. They have stood ir battle for weeks without a rest, singling them selves out by their good conduct and their good spirit despite the many hardships
 Heath conditions are good, the men are provided with whatever they need. and warm winter underclothing has been issued to all of them The letter from Archduke Joseph, commander of rhe seventh army corps in Ser~-ia, contains similar statements as do those of Victor DaukI general of cavalry and commander of the first army: Johann Freieherr I<irci1bach Auf Lauterbach, lieutenant field mar shaI and commander of the second army corps. and Joseph Roth, Eeuten- anc field marshal. commanding the fourteenth army corps
