BY 4ssociaicd Press

Washington, March Whether to
aequiesce in or protest against the ac-
ton of Great Britain and her allies
in declaring a blockade against Ger
man, was the question which con-
tronted the American government to-
day following the publication of the
complete series of notes between the
United States and the European bel
liserents regarding the safety of neu-
tral shipping. Officials were to-day
collecting data for what is expected to
be vigorous protest against the form
OF the proposed blockade against Ger
many. President Wilson already has
Indicated that a protest would be
made
There were all told six notes Their
publication by the State Department
not only cleaned the slate of diplo-
matte correspondence but recorded the
failure of efforts on the part of ad-
ministration officials to bring the bell
llgerents to realize the dangers which
thelr actions place on the neutral COM
merce of the world. This is a keen

The publication of the correspond
ence revealed that the allied block

outside of European waters. includ-

AUSTRIAN EMPEROR SAID
TO HAVE BROKEN OFF
ITALIAN NEGOTIATIONS
Relations Becoming More Straned VIII Take Month to
Silence Dardanelles; Fierce Fighting at Neuve Cha
pele; British Praise Heroic Germans; Russian At
tacks Light

Unofficial reports indicate that the
relations between Italy and Austria
are becoming more unsettled. A Paris
dispatch says that Germans in the
Italian riviera have been notified to
leave the country at once. The status
of the negotiations between the Ital-
ian government and Prince Won Bue-
low. on behalf of Austria and Ger
many is now in doubt, the assertion
having been made that Emperor Fran
els Joseph has virtually broken them
off.
The operations of the allied fleet
against the Dardanelles are being car
ried on slowly and carefully and a
French officer is quoted as saying that
at least another month will be devoted
to the effort to silence the Turkish for
tiications The attack on Smyrna is
explained as designed to prevent the
troops there from proceeding to the
Dardanelles, as wei as to cut the COM
muniCations of the Turkish army
which was sent against Egypt
An official British account of the
recent fighting at Neuve Chapelle gives
an idea of the ferocity of the attack.
The town was laid in ruins. No esti-
mate is given of British losses but it
is said that in two sections near the
were counted. The British observer
praises the heroic resistance of the
outnumbered Germans.
Vienna dispatch concerning
Przemysl is in disagreement with a
Petrograd message of yesterday to the
effect that a Galician fortress would
fall within n few days. 1t is said that
the Russian attacks are made only at
rare intervals and that the Austrian
defenders have little to do.
No Important Engagements
The renewal of heavy fighting on
both the western and eastern fronts
during the last fortnight apparently
is being followed by another mlI. To-
days official reports speak of no inn
portant engagements. Russian forces
continue their efforts to throw back
the Germans in Northern Poland, but
the German war office announces that
all these attacks have been repulsed.
The statement shows, however, that
the Russians succeeded in penetrating
German soil once again, striking in at
the northern end of East Prussia The
Russians are accused OF burning and

JURY POWDERS OVER
A BUCKET OF WATER
Question of Whether Mrs. Danner
Really Meant to SOuse Mrs.
MOSer at Issue in Court

The question of whether or not Mrs.
Florence Danner really meant to
throw bucket of water all over Mrs.
Mabel Moser, her nelghbor, was the
principal problem in March quarter
sessions. The jury took the case just
before the noon adjournment.
Mrs. Moser declares she was stand

Christmas when Mrs. Danner APP
peared at her own balcony door across
a 6-foot alley. Mrs. Danner was
scrubbing her porch Mrs. Moser
thought. Without warning, Mrs
Moser alleges, Mrs. Danner picked up
a bucket of water and sailed the con-
tents right over the balcony railing
upon her shoulders and head. Mrs
Danner admitted having thrown the
water but said she heaved the bucket
over without any intention of sousing
