GERMANY EXPECTED
TO YIELD FURTHER

Washington, Oct. although Ger
many's new note on the Arabic case
is not entirely satisfactory to the
United States the situation is not con-
sidered critical at this time. This was
stated on high official authority.
The view held by President Wilson
and state department officials of the
note handed to Secretary Lansing in
New York Saturday by Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador, is
that it was not specific enough on the
points insisted on by the president
These are a disavowal of the sinking
assurances that the act would not be
repeated, and proper reparation.
Careful reading of the note deliver
ed by the German ambassador has
convinced administration officials that
further negotiations on the question
are possible and that there is still rea-
son to hope that Germany will in the
end accede to the wishes of the Unit
ed States.
The note will not be answered form
ally Immediately, but Secretary Lam
sing, at a conference later this week
with the German ambassador, will in
form him of the point the United
States wants cleared up.

BOY SAVES HUNDRED LIVES
Makes Repeated Trips to Lowlands
for Refugees.

New Orleans, Oct. 5.-Amadee Favr.
aged sixteen, saved the lives of 105
people from the food in the vicinity
of Empire, La.
The boy, when the hurricane swept
over the settlement, jumped into his
skiff and after making trip after trip
carried practically all the residents
of the lowlands onto higher ground
AS the last boat load landed the oc-
cupants turned to witness the final
destruction of the only house left
standing in that section.
The list of known dead as a result
of Wednesdays hurricane still stands
at 202. Scores of vessels sent out to
relieve marooned persons along the
Louisiana and Mississippi coasts are
still on duty.

ENTOMBED MEN RESCUED
Found Alive After Six Days impris-
onment in Mine.

Lansford, Pa, Oct. 5.-Nine miners
imprisoned in the Forest Creek tun.
mel for six days have been rescued.
The men are in a hospital at Coal
dale. Their recovery is expected.
They were rescued after 200 miners
and company officials had dug out
more than 800 feet of rock, coal and
timbers wedged in the gangway, find
ing them huddled in compact group
at the top of chute to keep warm.
One of the nen entombed had big
dinner pail filled with bread, roast
chicken and other food. He shared

Just Ceded to Bulgaria.

London, Oct 5.-A new series OF
Turkish outrages against Christians
is reported to have taken place in
the zone which Turkey has just ceded

lutely Essential-Larger Quota of
Submarines Also Desired.
Washington. Oct. 5.-President Will
son, Secretary Daniels and Chairman
Padgett of the house naval commit
tee decided at a conference at the
White House that the naval program
for the coming session of congress
shall include the addition of fast bat
tie cruisers to the American fleet. The
navy now has none.
The conference on naval estimates
lasted more than an hour. Afterward
Secretary Daniels said the program
had not been completed and he is not
ready to make any announcement as
to what increases he will recommend
to congress.
Mr.. Daniels said, however, that the
report made to him by Naval Con-
structor Mcbride. who returned from
England last week, after investigat-
ing naval lessons of the war. con-
vinced him that fast warships of pow
erful types are absolutely essential to
a well balanced navy, toward which
his recommendation will trend.
He refused TO say how many sub
marines congress will be asked to
provide, but indicated his opinion that
the submarines will be recognized by
important additions.
Secretary Daniels expects to have
his estimates ready by Oct. rs.
The need of increasing the number
of midshipmen at the naval academy
was touched on at the conference.

Petrograd, Oct. 5.-Unless Bulgaria
has conceded fully the demands of
Russia concerning the breaking off Of
relations with the central powers by
2 d. m the Russian minister at Sofia
and his staff will depart. However
as Russia draws a distinction between
the Bulgarian government and the
Bulgarian people, no repressive meas
ures will be adopted against Bulgarian
subjects in Russia.
Even Nj. Madjariow, Bulgarian min
lister to Russia, will not be expelled.
His passports will not be given to
him and he will be permitted to re-
main undisturbed, although no official
relations will be maintained with him
as the representative of King Ferdi-
nand.
The foreign Office explains that the
fact that Russia alone sent an ulti-
metum to Bulgaria was due to volun-
tary recognition on the part of her
allies of this nations preponderance
in the Balkans and of her moral claim
upon the gratitude of the Balkan peo-
pie.

Athens, Oct 5.-All doubt as to the

Success Of AnglO-French
Loan Is Assured.
ROCKEFELLER TO ASSIST
Oil King Reported to Have Subserb-
ed 0.o0o, 900 "Purely as a Business
Bonds Rejected.

New York, oct. 6.-An announce
ment indicating the success of the
Anglo-French loan was made by j. p.
subscriptions to the underwriting will
be received after twenty-four hours.
Subscriptions for the loan contin-
he'd to pour in. Among those seeking
to subscribe were a considerable num-
Der of British and French citizens re-
siding abroad.
These investors sought the bonds
because the rate of interest is a full
| per cent higher than on the previous
internal loans. In every case, how
ever, their subscriptions were reject
ed. because to accept them would de
feat the object for which the credit
was established-the stabiliZation OF
exchange.
John ID. Rockefeller was reported
to have subscribed $10.000000 to the
$500. .000, 900 bond issue. 1t was said
that his subscription was among the
largest taken by individual investors.
At the Standard Oil company's of
fees here q member of the Rockefel-
Ter staff declined to confirm the re-
port, to deny ii or to comment on IL.
Mr.. Rockefeller is now at his home at
Pocantico Hills.
Morgan Makes Call.
Overtures looking toward Mr.. Rock
efeller's participation were made
about two weeks ago by ]. p. Morgan.
who called on John d. Rockefeller,
Jr., and discussed the proposed terms
of the loan.
The National City bank, whose pres
ident, Frank A. Vanderbilt has taken
leading part in the loan negotiations,
is reputed to have strong Rockefeller
affiliations and this gave color to the
report that Mr. Rockefeller had sub
scribed to the loan.
After Mr. Morgan had called at the
Rockefeller Offices it was said author
itatively that Mr. Rockefeller would
regard the big loan purely as a bust
ness transaction. 1t is assumed that
Mr. Rockefeller's subscription was
made with this in mind.
There is small likelihood that MIR.
Rockefeller's participation ever will
be announced officially, unless he sees
tit to state it. The syndicate man
ayers have determined not to make
public the list OF large individual sub
scribers on the ground that these sub
scribers are their clients and that to
talk of their affairs would be breach
of confidence.
