nit murder. to commit assault with
deadly weapons and to destroy ships.

explained that the indictments for
conspiracy to commit murder did not
necessarily mean that murder was

to commit an act which might result
in murder could be charged with the
more serious crime.

Washington Requests RsparatIon
From Vienna for sinking Of Itsl.
Ian Liner and That Submarine War
Cease Against Passenger ships.

Washington. Dec. 10.-The United
States government has sent note OF
. peremptory character to the Austr6.
Hungarian government. to be pre-
sented by Ambassador Penfield at
; Vienna, demanding full satisfaction for
the loss of American lives when the
Italian liner Ancona was torpedoed
by an Austrian submarine In the Med.
iterranean. The communication Is
couched In terms regarded as much
more severe than either OF the notes
on the Lusitania case to Germany.
The demands made are these:
!. Complete disavowal OF the act.
2. Punishment OF the captain OF the
Austrian submarine and any others
who may have been responsible for
the act
3. Full indemnity for the families OF
the American victims.
4. In view Of the fact that Germany.
Austria's ally. has discountenanced
such methods OF warfare, the United
States cannot understand why Austria
engages in 1t, and asks for assurances
against any repetition OF the act.
Throughout the note, the text OF
which is to be made public by mutual
agreement with the Vienna foreign Of
flee in the morning papers OF Friday,
there is tone of emphatic condemna-
tion of the sinking Of the Ancona,
feeling of horror Is expressed over
the fact that the vessel. according to
the afiidavits of passengers, was
shelled after 1t came to stop and
that the firing was continued when
the panic-stricken passengers were at
tempting to get into the lifeboats.
The action of the American govern
ment was taken after mature consid-
Grafton OF the facts, after formal and
informal inquiries from Vienna as to
the circumstances Of the sinking and
after denials were entered by the Aus
trian government that any firing oc-
CURED after the ship halted.
Austria's official statement to the
United States admitted that the ves-
sci was torpedoed while passengers
were aboard. but transferred the blame
to the negligence of the crew. arguing
that they sought only TO save them
selves and ignored the passen
gers.
The plea that another vessel was
coming in sight In response to the dis
tress calls Of the Ancona was offered
by Austria as the excuse sor the de-
cision to torpedo the vessel. but the
statement OF the Italian captain and
affidavits of passengers uniformly
