OFFICIALS ARE PESSIMlSTIC
Washington Believes That Chances
Are Against Diplomatic Settle
ment With Germany.

Washington-Officials Of the state
department we're inclined to take a
rather pesslmistic view Of the Amer
canGermanic situation. They ex.
pressed the opinion that the chances
Of a diplomatic settlement of the diff.
fully seemed 70 be decreasing.
One official said that there was not
the slightest ground for optimism
Another official said the optimism Of
the past two days has been misplaced.
An official whose opinion carries
weight because Of close relation TO
President Wilson, said that II Ger.
many should renew her proposition to
the United States to induce England
TO permit foodstuifs to get into Ger.
many, the proposition should have to
be rejected. He said on this point:
The United States would have to
bear in mind that in the Civil War il
pursued a policy Of starving the en-.
envy. The federal government OF
cours established a blockade for that
purpose, but Great Britain also has
established a blockade. Her blockade
Is Of a kind which sets a new prece,
dent, but the British claim is that it Is
justified by the employment Of the
submarine in modern warfare"
There Is no official confirmation
here Of the report that President vii.
son Is meditating a new note to Great
Britain on her general lines of activ.
tiles in the detention of American
ships and American cargoes. That
the discussion growing out Of the va
rious phases Of the British order in
council is still going on is evidenced
by the fact that British officials were
discussing with the state department
payments for detained cargoes.

KING IN COMMAN OF ARMY
ltaly'S Monarch Will Entrust Regency
to Duke Of Aosta and Enter the
Field.

London.-A late dispatch from Rome
says: 1T is assured that the king has
manifested his intention to assume
the effective command OF the Italian
army and entrust the regency to the
duke Of Aosta. In this action King
Victor will follow the example of bis
grandfather, King Victor Emmanuel
II, who in 1866, gave the regency TO
Prince Eugenio."
While Italy is confidently believed
to be making final preparations to en-
ter the war on the side of the allies,
Austria, who would be the direct OBJ
ject of her attack, is, with ner Ger
man ally, attempting to inflict suc1 a
defeat on Russia that she will be able
to divert troops, if necessary, to meet
her new foe in the south.
Dispatches from Rome continue
somewhat contradictory, but most of
them agree that Italy has decided on
the SIDE Of war, that the German and
AustH ambassadors are preparing
to lean pine and that the consul
generals Of those two countries either
already have left their posts or will
do 80 soon.
On the other hand, a message COM
ing through Paris says that Austria
has submitted new proposals, which
she hopes will induce Italy to remain
neutral.

London. - Austrian and German
armies continue massed attacks
against the Russians, who are at.
tempting to form a new line behind
the River San, both north and south
Of Przemysl and west of the Vistula

These attacks, according to Aus

with their greatest success north of
Przemysl, where the Germanic allies
have crossed the river and have occu-
pied Sieniawa, on the eastern bank.
They also claim to have captured po-
sitions southeast of the former Aus.
trian fortress, while their heavy guns
are keeping up a bombardment from
the west.
In Southern Poland their progress
Is not so marked, the Russians having
had strong forces concentrated at
Ivangorod, which they brought into
the field and checked the advance.
1t is stated from Petrograd that the

is lacking in persons subject to tuber-

He says that there Is less tuber-
