VIENNA, Nov. 22. CBy Courier to Berlin Nov. 2s.) Cvia London. Nov. 24)-It was learned from an authori- tative source today that Frederick C. Penfield, the American ambassador to Austria, last Sunday delivered to the foreign office an American note con corning the sinking of the Italian steamer Ancona, the contents of which generally corresponded to that which the ambassador at Rome sub mitted to the Italian government.
 The embassy has not yet received an answer to the note, but the Asso- ciated Press has learned from am other authoritative source that it will not differ much from the already pulp lished statement of Austria concern ing the sinking of the liner.
 The detailed report received from the commander of the submarine which sank the AancQna bears out in ali respects his earlier communica- ton. It reiterates, first that the An coma in accordance with instructions of the Italian government" refused to halt: second, that the submarine com mander did everything possible to protect the lives Of passengers, and. third that the crew of the Ancona, in the greatest panic, thought only of themselves and left the women. chill dren and other passengers to their fate.
 The assertion that the submarine fired upon persons struggling in the water is characterized by officials here as an absolute invention. The further assertion that the submarine possibly was a German cratt, owlne to its great tonnage, is explained here as possibly being due to the fact that Austria Hungary ordered a short time before the outbreak of the war. q number of large submarines in Ger many. which lately have been de- livered in the Adriatic.
 1t was declared at the marine sec tion of the war office today that tho facts concerning the sinking of tho Ancona had been established: The submarine signalled an order to rns Ancona to stop. The Ancona did not heed the signal and attempted to es' cape. The submarine then fired one shot ahead and one astern of tht Ancona. aiming to miss the vessel but this measure was unavailing 1T causing her to stop. The submarine

States and Germany near an early settlement of the figures which grew out of the sinking of the Lusita nia with a loss of more than 100 Ameri- can lives. It was said today by per- sons in position to know that the points of view of the two govern ments still were widely different.
 In German circles the belief was expressed that satisfactory agree ment could not be reached without arbitration. Officials of the state department were more optimistic. however, the opinion seeming to prevail that ultimately Germany would come into the American way of viewing the situation.
 Secretary Lansing and Count Won Bernstorff have an agreement not to talk about the subject of their last conference. It is taken for granted in official circles. however. that the Lusitania case was one of the mat ,ters discussed.
 It is stated on authority that no offer has been made to indemnify the families of Americans lost in the disaster. It had been reported that the German government offered to pay an indemnity of $5000 for each life lost but it is stated that neither this figure nor any other had been named by the conference.

the trouble likely to arise through Greek objection to Bulgarian occupa- ton of the city which is so near their border.
 Dispatches from Athens, however, state that the delay is due to the fact that the Serbians have defeated the Bulgarians who were advancing on the town, and that the sSerbians have reoccupied their front on the Veles-Pdilep line. Perhaps the real reason for the slowness of the in- vaders' progress arises from difficult ties of transport.
 Nothing of importance has occurred Germans, according to the Russian reports, attempted an offensive in Galicia and actually moved some ad- vance guards across the Stripa, but since then no news has been received, the Germans apparently not consid- ering the occupation worthy of men ton in their official report.

WAR SUMMARY
IRepublican A. p. Leased wirel

With the announcement of the British foreign office that there has been no blockade of Greek ports in- stituted and that no Greek ships in British ports are being seized and held, feeling of optimism pervades England that Greece has conceded. or will concede, the entente allies de- mands made by Earl Kitchener, the British war secretary. and Denys Co., chin, of the French cabinet.
 A Paris news agency is authority for the statement that Earl Kitchener in his representations to the Greek king and officials, said Great Britain, next March, would have 4.000,00O sol diers under arms, and also would be able to arm and provision 5000, 900 Russians, and that it would be stu pidity to think the war could end otherwise than in complete defeat for Germany.
 The Austro- German and Bulgarian line in central and west Serbia, be- fore which the Serbs and Monte negrins are falling back in the direc- tion of Montenegron and northern Albania, is still pressing forward, and according to Berlin advices the re- cent fighting has netted the forces of the Teutonic allies positions all along the line, from north of Nitro vitza to the southeast of Pristina.
 A late report from the Montenegrin war office says that, despite vigorous attacks against the Montenegrin San jak army, 1t is moving toward new positions, while the Serbian legation at Paris reports the defeat of the Bulgarians by the Serbs 9 miles west of Nish
 From Chiasso, near the Italian frontier it is reported that Italian troops have begun landing in Albania. Again the fighting on the western line in France and Belgium has slackened, while in the east only rela- lively small engagements on widely separated sectors have occurred. Pet rograd claims the capture of a first line German trench in the Dvina re- zion and says that to the southwest of Dvinsk, on the middle Styr river. near Kozlinitchi, and in Galicia along the Stripa offensive, movements by the Teutons broke down under Rus sian fire.

then proceeded to chase the Ancona. It quickly overhauled her and the liner then stopped.
 The commander of the submarine thereupon gave 45 minutes to the pas sengers and crew to leave the Ancona- The greatest excitement was imme- diately noticed on board. The first lifeboats in the water contained al- most exclusively members of the crew. Confused passengers, unfamn- far with the manipulation of davits, upset boats which they attempted to launch. As another craft under full speed was approaching from the dis tance, and as the time limit had all most expired, the submarine fired a shot as a warning for haste, but not aiming at the Ancona.
 The submarine again waited, but as the steamer was rapidly approaching. the commander decided to torpedo the Ancona near her bows. SO that the Ancona would sink only slowly. The commanders belief that the steamer would remain afloat some time proved true. as the Ancona disappeared un- ters of an hour.
 AS suStlIlcdllOn TOT tne SuDnEsFlle S action, the Associated Press corres- pendent was shown a copy of alleged secret instructions said to have been issued by the Italian government to the masters or Italian ships. These instructions demand that an attempt be made under all circumstances to escape attacks by submarines. first by disregarding orders to halt and, second, by ramrhing, if possible The introduction to the instructions order that the contents of the document be held secret and that the instructions must be destroyed when necessary, in order to prevent them falling into the hands of the subjects of a country enemy to Italy.
 At the marine section of the wal office it was declared that charges of brutality against the submarine crew were ridiculous and that such state ments were designed only to affect opinion in neutral countries

Instead of Declaring Gen eral Blockade of Greek Ports. Allies Threaten to
 Withhold Much Needed Supplies, Including Coal
rRepublican A. p. Le1ses wIre1

LONDON, Nov. 23 10 P. Min stead of declaring a general blockade of the Greek ports, the allies have, according to a statement issued by the British foreign office today, with drawn or threatened to withdraw, the special privileges which Greek commerce has enjoyed since the out break of the war.
 What these special privileges are is not specifically stated but as an ex- ample Greece has been allowed to draw her supplies of coal from Welsh colleries. To do this Greek merchants required special permits. as the export of coal fro-, u,o British Isles is allowed orI- t;-S7 a special license.
 There are many other commodities the export of which is permitted only 10 certain countries Invariably when orders have been issued against the export of such commodities. Greece has been among the countries ex- cepted. Now unless she comedies the demands made by the allies for as surances for the safety of their troops in the Balkans, Greece will be struck off the list of countries which have these privileges.
 While this less vigorous attitude on the part of the allied governments has caused some dissatisfaction in quarters where strong measures is advocated, it has eased the situation and the belief now prevails that Greece having been impressed bS- Lord Kitcherers visit and the threat to her commerce, will concede the de- mands.
 Of the fighting in the Balkans, the reports are more confusing than ever The German accounts still claim progress for the Austro- German and Bulgarian troops and recount the capture of thousands Of prisoners and many guns from the Serbians. But from the towns mentioned their ad- vance appears very slow. It may be, as reported from Italian sources, that the campaign is waiting on a change in the disposition of the armies, so that the Germans may be the first to enter Monastir. This would avoid
