combatants Yhen the liners do not at
tempt TO escape. Germanys Arabic
pledge does not, therefore, cover the case
Of the Ancona, which did make an effort
to escape.
Austria Hungary may De expected to
make the most, diplomatically, Of the OPP
portunity to question the American atti-
tude in so far as it has been qualified by
the unfortunate reference to Germany's
acquiescence in that attitude. Vienna will
be entitled to ask whether the United
States in dealing with Austria-Hungary
stands on its original attitude or on its
attitude as acquiesced in by Germany and
az limited by the success or non-success OF
our negotiations with Germany.
The door is opened-and opened by our
acUon-to an extended diplomatic contro-
versy with Austria-Iungary, unless we
are willing to recall the first Ancona note
and TO admit that we intend to break of
relations brusquely with the Dual Mon
prchy for not meeting our demands in the
Ancona case, while continuing relations
with Germany, which has never acceded to
our demands in the far more tragical Lusi-
tania case.
The unsettled Lusitania case thus hangs
like a milestone about the neck Of the ad-
diplomacy. Because we
halted equivocated and used phrases
which had no real meaning in trying to
assert our rights as neutral against Ger
many. we are now enormously handl-
capped in asserting them against any
other offending belligerent. Arc we to
wait until we find the easiest possible OPP
ponent before backing up our words with
action? Then it would be polite to delay
until we get a chance to demand DIS
avowal and reparation for some injury at
the hands of Turkey or Bulgaria.
In the submarine controversy with Ger
many we Numbered in the index and let
our protest die down to gentle roaring
in the fourth chapter. Our strongest note
was written first--in anticipation OF Ger
man violence. In it we gave notice that
we should hold Germany to "strict ac-
for American lives taken at
sea in violation of international law
After Germany did what we had warned
her against doing we wrote the "omit-no-
note, demanding reparatlon.
Next we renewed our demand Every
solemnly." but without results, and finally
We expressed the hope that Germany
would no longer withhold reparation and
announced that we should consider SIM
liar offence as deliberately unfriendly."
After more than seven months OF nego-
.iation the Lusitania crime is still unre-
Juked.
viii there be a swifter accounting IN the
Ancona case? Not if the precedents set
in the controversy with Germany are fol-
lowed. Yet there remains the chance that
the administration will try to make Aus
a scapegoat for its failure
with Germany-that by brusquely break
iug off relations with Vienna it may seek
to lure the country into forgetting the
I .usitania's dead.

1t would have taken something more
vital than mere treasure to disturb
Steve Blossoms appetite. He was
one of those enviable individuals whose
imagination and gastric juices work
at he same time. And while he ate
he planned. In the first place, he
would buy that home at Bedford; then
he would take over the ellison house
and live like a lord. If he wanted a
drink, all he would have to do would
be to turn the spigot or tip a bottle;
and more than that, he'd have a bar

He was rich; and the moment a
man has money he has troubles;
there is always some one who wants
to take II away from you. His bunk
was on the port side, and there was
plenty of hiding space between the
iron plates and the wooden partition.
He intented to loosen three or four
planks. and then when the time came,
slip the box behind them. Some time
during the morning the forecastle
would be empty, and then would be
his time.
But he suffered the agonies Of dam

Supposing some fool should go rum
maging about his bunk and discover
the box? Suppose But he dared
not suppose. There was nothing to do
but wait. II he created any curiosity

He would have to divide with them

Quite unconsciously he spoke this word
aloud.
"Euh? Well if ye don't like onions,
find hooker that packs violets in

of the man at Steves elbow :.

Steve. VIVA did say?"
Onions, ye lubber, Don't we know
whut onions is? Amt we smelt 'em
so long that ye could stick yer nose
in tn starboard light an never smell

Steve helped himself first. The man
who spoke bunked over him, and they
were not on the best of terms. There
was no real reason for this frank
antagonism; simply, they did not splice
any more effectually than cotton rope
and hemp splice. Sailors are moody
and superstitious; at least they gener-
ally are on hookers of the Captain

had no thumb on his left hand Steve
hated the sight of that red nubbin.

to enjoy his evening pipe. all the

at the ratty old pilot house.
1t was ten o'clock, land time, when
he rammed his Guilty into a pocket
and resolutely walked forward. II
any one watched him they would think
he was only looking down the cut
water. The thought of money and
the pleasures it will buy makes cum

was ordinarily dolt. But tonight his
brain was keen enough for all pur-
poses. II was a hazardous job to get
the box off the fluke without letting
IL slip back into the sea. Steve, how

back on the rail and sat down, wait

one had seen him. With his coat Sc
curely wrapped about his precious

At four o'clock he turned in and
slept like a log
in the morning he found his oppor-
tunity. For half an hour the forecastle
was empty of all save himself. Fever
ishlv he pried back the boards, found
the brace beam, and gently laid the
box there. 1t was a mighty curious
looking box Once he had stocked up
the Chinese coast from the Philip
pines, and he judged it to be Chinese
in origin. He tried to pry open the
cover and feast his eyes upon the
treasure; but under the leather and
ivory and mother of pearl was imper-
vious steel. 1t would take an ak or
a crowbar to stir that lid He sighed.
He replaced the boards, and became
to all appearances his stolid self
again.
But all the way down to the BAHIA
mas he was moody, and when he an
swered any questions it was with
words spoken testify and jerkily.

for example, concentration to a
strip by freezing is easily ac-
complished and it appears at the
present time that there are
great commercial possibilities in
this method although further
experimentation is considered
necessary. In the case of fruits
whose juices do not suffer any
change of flavor or color in the
process Of sterilization, this
method is not likely to prove
necessary.

New Fruit Juices for the Home.

New fIult JulCeo lOI JUe TlOIIle.
Washington, D. c., June 28.-
That the juice of currants,
blackberries, black raspberries,
sour cherries and peaches may
be prepared and kept as success
fully as grape juice and by the
same methods, has now been
demonstrated in the course of a
series of Investigations which
the United States Department
of Agriculture is conducting in
to the whole complicated ques-
tons of fruit juices. The
juices of the fruits mentioned,
it has been found, retain their
characteristic color and flavor
after being sterilized and stored
away and can, therefore, be
made available for use through
out the year in households and
at soda fountains, etc. In this
way it is thought much fruit
that has hitherto been allowed
to go to waste may be utilized.
For reasons, however, which
are not as yet very thoroughly
understood, the various fruits
differ greatly in the effects of
sterilization upon them. Thus,
strawberry juice and red rasp-
berry juice lose their distinctive
colors and favors very readily
and, therefore, can not be put
put up on a commercial scale
and marketed as grape juice is.
Lemon and orange juices also
undergo peculiar changes in
flavor after sterilization and
no satisfactory method of over
coming this obstacle has yet
been developed. Lemon juice is
the more promising but this,
too, can not yet be manufacture
ed commercially with success.
With certain precautions, on the
other hand, pineapples can be
made to yield a sterilized juice
of a very attractive flavor which
should have distinct commercial
possibilities. The juice, how
ever, should be kept in cold
storage at form 80 to 95 de-
grees Fahrenheit after sterili-
cation, and most Of the suspend
ed material should be removed
by means of a milk separator or
by filtration. Moreover, where
atmospheric oxygen is not ex-
cluded in the process of boiling,
the juice darkens gradually.
These studies have already re-
suited in the discovery of a
method producing concentrated
apple juice by freezing which is
not only easier to ship than or
binary cider, but which will keep
much better. In the concentrat-
ed juice, however, the presence
of sugar and acid retards the
growth of heterogeneous and
fermentation is very slow.
Similar methods are now be-
ing tried out with other fruits.
In the case Of grape fruit juice,
