Cymbric Leaves New York With War suppIies-Passensers To Travel
 On Neutral Ships.

NEW YORK, May 15.-The White Star liner Cymbric sailed from this port yesterday for Liverpool with heavy load of war munitions. Not passenger was carried on the big ex, press liner The officials of the steamship line refused to book pas sengers on the boat.
 Passengers to Europe will be car ried mostly on American, Norwes ian and Dutch ships which, as neu- tral vessels, cannot be molested by the German submarines without ser ious difficulties for the kaiser's gov ernment. The British liners will be used to carry the vast amount of war munitions now being delivered to the agents of the Allies for shipment to Europe
 The orders for supplies and muni' tions placed many months ago are now being delivered and many ships will be needed to carry from this city and Philadelphia the huge quan- titles of ammunition, guns, foods and other supplies bought in the United States for the Allies.

Spent Yesterday and Today Denying Statements Made By Former
 President Roosevelt.

SYRACUSE, May 15.-William Barnes, the plaintiff in the suit for $5O,000 against ex-President Roose- welt, was a witness all of yesterday and today and put in most of his time denying the many statements and charges made by Roosevelt when he was on the stand.
 The intense interest in the war situation and the complications that involve the United States along with the public statements made by Roose- welt on the Wilson no@e have detract- ed largely from the public interest in the trial and the court room is no longer crowded as during the first days of the trial.
 The attorneys for Roosevelt tried to force Barnes to make many ad- missions of wrong doing while in con- trol of the state government, espec- ially in relation to state printing con- tracts but attempts failed.

 Italy is torn into two camps. The upper classes are mostly against war, fearing the result to business and the terrible loss of life; the working classes, unable to secure work and already suffering as much as if the nation was at war, forced to pay heavy taxes and unable to secure steady employment, are clamoring for fight with Austria. The agents of the Allies have flooded the country with literature calling on Italians to succor their kindred, who are still under the yoke of Austria. The Ger mans have literature calling on them to remain friends of the kaiser, who aided Italy in the recent wars in Africa and has helped the nation to become a world power, blocking all acts of aggression by England.

WILSON'S NOTE
 PLEAl!s]E|s BRITISH
Press of Great Britain Thinks We'll of the Note Sent By President
 to Kaiser.

LONDON, May 15.-The press of Great Britain seems we'll pleased with the note sent by President Woodrow Wilson to Germany demanding that the kaiser's government respect the rights of neutrals and safeguard the lives of non-combatants on merchant ships.
 The press calls the note mas terpiece of English language and a diplomatic note of perfect frankness, caudor and politeness, but with so much firmness as to leave no doubt in the minds of the diplomats of the German foreign office as to the de- termination of the American govern ment to back up it's rights.
 Great interest is taken in this country in the threatened break be- tween Germany and the United States and much speculation is manifest as to the work the United States will undertake in the event of hostilities
