the mission and senators are de-
sirous OF ascertaining especially his
plans with respect to Mr.. Rublee. who
went from Wisconsin to New Hamp-
shire The Wisconsin senator followed
carefully the course of Mr.. Rublee,
while the latter with Louis d. Brandeis
the Boston lawyer, was opposing the
proposed law to regulate the issuance
Of new stocks and bonds. Senator La
Toilette has indorsed this regulation
by the federal government. The
charge is being made that Rublee and
Brandeis opposed this legislation be-
cause they feared its effect on the
value of securities held by some of
their clients in railroads and indus
trials. The politics of MIR. Rublee is in
in doubt also, he having the backing
of Senator Hollis of New Hampshire,
democrat.
Senator Wesley l.. Jones, of Wash

ing to the support of Mr.. Parry, and as
Senator Jones is rated a republican,
his support will weaken the opposition
Of his republican colleagues.

A sleet storm, accompanied by q
high wind, prostrated telegraph and

are down in every direction out Of

to have been most severe south and

Berlin by wireless. Feb. 23.-Berlin
newspapers, publishing reports from
various ports on the North sea to the
effect that the British flag has dis
appeared from the s-a," and that
English sailors are refusing to leave
port because of Gerpanys submarine
blockade of the British Isles. Sailor
men of other countries also are reported
to be refusing to sail to the British
Isles for the same reason.
1t is reported that Stanislau. in
Galicia, has been occupied by Austrian
troops. These various reports, COM
bined with the German victory in the
Mazurian lakes country. are tending to
strengthen public confidence in the
final outcome.
A dispatch from Constantinople de-
MES reports that Turkish or Arabian
soldiers operating in the vicinity of the
Suez canal have surrendered to the
British. 1t alleges, on the contrary, that
these men completed a scouting mis-
sion, on which they had been sent out,
and they then discontinued their activ-
tiles.
