SAYS GERMAN AMBASSADOR
 DIRECTED U. s. CONSPIRACY
AUSTRIAN ACCUSES TEUTONS

WASHINGTON Nov 12.-The most sensational fact relating the and its connection with this coun try is the announcement made this morning in the PrOv dence Journal by Dr. Joseph Goricar, formerly Austrian consul general at San Francisco that the United States is honeycOmbed with cOnSpiracieS to blow up munitions factories and the ships taking those munitions and sup plies to Europe and most sensational Of a that those conspiratorS are working directly under the German ann baSSador to Washington and other Austrian and German officials German and Austrian SpieS GOricar declares are present in the United States by the thousands and their chief directors are Count BernStor the Ger man ambassador and Consul General vOn Nuder of New York. Every Austrian consulate in American says Gorcar in his article in the Journal lis hOtbed of the propaganda for the destruction of munitions factories and for the creating of labor strikes Every act Of vo ence in such factories almost surely has its beginning in the conSuateS with the object of creating trouble and of casting suspicion other sources when hreS and eX plosOnS occur GOrcar further declares in the article that the naval attache of the Austrian embassy at Wash
 ngton last year sought to have himself Gorcar, obtain plans of the equipment of the Pacific coast defenSes men, tonng specially San Francisco harbOr and Bremerton Gorcar says he refused do the work committed to him and that he was transferred Vienna and later retired An attempt was made to secure statement this afternoon from Ambassador von BenstOr touching the revelations of Gorcar but the ambassador merely declared that there was nothing to say Owing to the high position held under the Austrian government by GOricar his state ment has created tremenodus sensation Should 1t be borne out the United States government will be compel led to take action, Washington opinion says.

Panama Output
 Will Increase
Fairbanks Anthony Man Says Cheap
 Fuel Only is Needed.

That the output of the Tanana dis trict will increase immensely after the building of the government rail road and the supply of cheap fuel is the belief of E. L. Scrafford, the man who has recently shipped out lot of antimony ore from that district. MT. Scrafford has come here merely to look around like anyone else and he has no fixed intentions. He makes the remarkable statement that there is no such thing as an antimony mine. What he found in the Fairbanks country was nothing but patches ot ore. It is always found in patches or pockets and the ore shipped out by him was taken from several pockets in various sections.

GREEK KING RAMPANT

LONDON, Nov. 12-An hope of Greece joining the allied nations against the Teutons dashed to the ground today when the arrived from Athens that King Constantine has dissolved parliament and thrown defiance at Venizeos and other people of the kingdom who are favorable to the allied cause By deserton ot twentyseven members of the chamber of deputies from
 the cause of Venzelos and the allies the king has been able to secure majority of parliament and he now an nounces that general election will be held the Nine teenth of December. Until that time aid may be ex- pected from Greece and the result of those elections will depend the nations future course. The majority secured by the king officially stated in be in favor of neutrality and that does not intend to aid the Teutons but there is feeling of uneasness that if the Teutons meet success in the Balkan campaign Greece will find it
 to her advantage join them The situation is regarded most serious and any attempts to bette the gravity ot it are conspicuous by their absence The very best that can be expected is Greek neutrality although the allied nations had counted on Greek support.

She was bound from New York to Queen stown when the fire was discovered and she was forced to put back After her docking here an investiga- ton was begun and the discovery of the piece of time fuse is taken by the authorities to prove exclusively that the fire was stated intention ally. The numerous mysterious fires occurring on trans Atlantic ships are regarded as being the work of one of the widest and most reckless con spiracies in the history of the world.

COURT THOUGHT BOYLES
 CABLE NOT CLOSING DEAL

Ray and Ritchie fere for Boyle and Coppernoll represented Haynes. Tn a letter to the Alaska Land and Development company Boyle said that the property was for sale at $4,5OO and Mir. Poindexter wired to say that the terms were agreed to by Haynes and that the money had been placed in the bank. Following came a cable from Dr.. Boyle in the following words: Subject to Colwell lease of- fer acceptable will be over on Evans" The court believed that this cable showed that something remained to be done before the deal could be con- sidered closed.
