British Admiralty Officially
Answers German En-
bassy's Statement
NOT GIVEN TIME
TO ESCAPE TORPEDO
Some Lifeboats Were in the
Davits When the
End Came

London, April 9.-The official informa
ton bureau issued statement yester
day saying that the British steamer
falaba, sunk at sea on March 2s, by 9
German submarine, with loss of over
100 lives, was not armed.
1t is not true, the statement goes on
that sufficient time was given the pas.
sengers and the crew of this vessel to
escape. The German submarine closed
in on the Falaba, ascertained her name
signalled her to stop, and gave those
on board five minutes to take to their
boats. 1t would have been nothing less
than a miracle il all the passengers and
crew of good sized liner had been
able to take to her boats within the
time allowed
"While some of the boats were still
on their davits," the statement declares,
"the submarine fired torpedo at the
falaba at short range. This action made
it absolutely certain that there must
be great loss of life, and it must have
been committed knowingly with the in
tention of producing that result.
'The conduct of all on board the Fala
ba appears to have been excellent. There
was no avoidable delay in getting out
the boats. 1t is possibly true, but quite
irrelevant, that trained man-of-war's
crew of equal numbers might have man
aged to escape, in similar circumstances
with less loss OF life To accuse the
Falaba's crew of negligence under the
circumstances could not easily be par
alleled."

RUMORS OF WAR
BETWEEN GERMANY

Reports in London, However, are Not
Confirmed, and Generally

London, April 9.-Rumors were cur
rent in London yesterday of declara.

Holland. They were, however, absolute
ly without confirmation, and dispatches
from The Hague received late yester-
day afternoon ignored any such develop

in London, when questioned, said he had

had no information on the subject him.

One OF these rumors was to the effect
that Germany had seized strip of Dutch

DYSPEPSIA OVERCOME
Tone Up the Stomach with Hoods Sar-
saparilla

When you have dyspepsia, your llf'
is miserable. You have bad taste III
your mouth, tenderness at the pit OF
your stomach, a feeling of puffy full
ness, headache, heartburn, and some
times nausea.
Dyspepsia is difficult digestion-that
is what the word means-and the only
way to get rid of it is to give vigor and
tone to the stomach and the whole d.
gestive system. Hoods Sarsaparilla, sold
by all druggists, is the one medicine
which acts on the stomach through the
blood and also directly. It's beneficial
effects are felt at once. Improvement
begins Immediately.
Hoods Sarsaparilla purifes the blood,
makes the rich, red blood that is needed
for perfect digestion, and builds up the
whole system. No other medicine can
take its place-Advt.

al staff is decidedly anti-Austrian. Col,
Montanari is well known for his thor
ongh knowledge of the mountain passes
in the Austrian territory near the Ital-
ian frontier. Count Cadorna still wears
the watch which his grandfather owned
when he was hanged by the Austdians.
General Porro, whose appointment as
under chief of the general staff was an
nounced recently, is known for his mill
taristic tendencies. When Premier Sal
andra formed his cabinet, General Pooro
declined the portfolio of minister of war
because an appropriation of 100000, 900
tor military expenses in addition to the
ordinary war budget was refused him.
