OFFICIALS SHOW
MUCH INTEREST
May Inquire Into Sinking Of
| Japanese Liner.
NO ANCONA DEVELOPMENTS YET

Strong lntimation Has Come to Wash.
ington From an Authoritative
Source That the Reply May Not
Meet With the Approval Of the
United States.
Washington, Dec. 2S-The sinking
of the Japanese steamship Yasaka
Maru will be made the subject of dip
lomatic negotiations by the United
States if it is established that an
American citizen was on board when,
as described in official advices receiv-
ed, submarine of unknown national
ity torpedoed the vessel without warn
ing.
This became known after the state
department had officially announced
that it had no record of an American
passport having been granted to w. ].
Leigh, survivor of the disaster, who
has been called in consular and press
dispatches an American citizen.
Should it develop that Leigh actual
ly is an American citizen the state de-
partment will feel justified in address
ing inquiries to Germany, Austria and
Turkey in an effort to establish the
nationality of the submarine.
It is considered practically certain,
however, that the craft was Austrian,
as it is said in Teutonic quarters here
that there were no German or Turk
ish submarines operating in the Medi-
terranean near where the Yasaka
Maru was attacked.
Officials Display Anxiety.
State department officials are await
ing information in regard to Leigh
with considerable anxiety.
If he is entitled to the protection of
the United States the fact that he was
aboard the liner undoubtedly will COM
plicate the negotiations with Austria
over the sinking of the Italian steam
er Ancona.
There have been no developments
in the Ancona negotiations and none
are expected before the reply of the
Vienna foreign office in received, prob
ably some time this week.
officials here do not seek to mini
mize the seriousness of the situation,
as there has been no indication that
Austria will accede to the American
demands
On the contrary strong intimation
has come from an authoritative source
that the reply may not meet with the
approval of the United States.
Official news received of the torpe-
doing of the French steamer Vile de
la Ciotat added still another aggravat-
ing circumstance to the situation.
