 Demurraoe.

NEW YORK, May 26.-The French government has offered to buy the steamer Dacia and her cargo and pay demurrage on the ship in order to set tie the claims of the owners of the boat, which has an American register but was a Hamburg-American liner prior to the war and was interned at Galveston at the outbreak of hostili- ties and later purchased by German American and loaded with cotton and sent to Bremen, but was captured and taken to France as a prize of war.
 Under the law passed by congress shortly after the war began foreign steamers could be given American reg ister and the Hamburg American line, a German concern, sold the Dacia, which was then placed under the American flag.

ITALY JUST|F|ES
 WAR DECLARATION
Tells Neutral Countries That Austria Violated Triple Alliance Treaty. In
 Attacking Serbia.

WASHINGTON, May 26.-The Un' ited States government along with all other neutral governments has receiv- ed from Rome a note explaining the course taken by Italy in the present conflict and her reasons for joining the Allies in the fight on Austria and Germany.
 The Italian note explains that Aus. tria had violated the treaty obliga- tions which bound the Triple Alliance when in July of last year Austria, without consulting Italy, entered in, to an aggressive war with Serbia. The treaty bound Italy to aid Austria or Germany only in the event of an az, gressive attack upon them by some power or powers.
 The no-e has failed to make fa' vorable impression here among the diplomats as it is contended that Italy joins the Allies for spells and not be. cause of the violation of treaty rights.
 No reply will be made by the gov. ernment to the note, which is merely a polite statement of facts as seen from an Italian viewpoint and no an. swer is needed.

 The members of the commission have several times indicated to Chair man Walsh that his questions regard ing Rockefeller and the Rockefeller Foundation were not aimed to aid the work of the commission, but rath- CT to indicate that the commission were trying to secure evidence of wrongdoing on the part of the capital fists.

FRYE. CASE |S

Germany Denies That Foreign Office Has Ignored American Protest
 and Demand for Restitution

WASHINGTON, May Addressed for an answer in the Frye case. the German foreign office has denied any intent to ignore the American pro. test against the sending of the case to prize court, but will consider the matter as soon as possible. The Ger man government insists that the press of work at this time makes i'm, possible the immediate consideration of the American note demanding re. dress for the sinking of the American schooner in the Pacific ocean. The German foreign office promises speedy answer.
 The fact that the Frye case was re- ferred to the German prize courts was merely matter of form, according to the report from Berlin and may be taken from that court at any time should Foreign Secretary von Jargow decide that the American contention is correct.
