So. to please the old woman, he prom.

ports he made inquiry among British
ships: although it, seemed very much

To bis intense surprise the man an.

the vessels drew apart. The result Of
his amazing meeting was that the old

BRITISH MINISTERS
FAVOR CONSCR|PT ton

London, Dec. 29.-It is stated on ex-
cellent authority that the cabinet vir-
tually has decided on modified form
of CONSUMPTION bill, to be introduced
in the house of commons next week,
giving the government the necessary
power, should it be found needful, to
bring in single men and preserve Pre-
mier Asquith's pledge to married men.
The line of policy upon which a
majority of the ministers agreed, in
dicating that one at least of the anti
conscriptionist section of the cabinet
so far waived their principal as to
consent to modified application of
force, is as follows:
First, that the premier's pledge to
married men is binding on the whole
government
Second, that the pledge should be
redeemed forthwith
Third, that the principle of com:
pulsion should be accepted.
Fourth, that the premier should an.
nounce this policy at the earliest op.
portunity after the reassembling OF
parliament

MED the motions of the defense to
dismiss the case against William
Rockefeller and ten other former di.
rectors of the New York, New Haven

the Metropolitan testimony the court
said that the motion was denied with
out prejudice to its being submitted
again at later stage of the trial.

REPLY FAILS TO
MEET DEMANDS
Diplomatic Break With Austria
Is Probable.
NOTE HAS NOT YET ARRIVED.


ington Intimate That Dual Mon.
archy Will Not Accede to the Posi-
ton Of the United States in the An.
coma Case. '~.
Washington, Dec. 29.-Teutonic dip
lomatic circles here are prepared for
break in diplomatic relations be-
tween AustriaHungary and the Unit.
ed States, it was authoritatively said
The preparations followed confrma
ton of unofficial advices received here
with intimations from abroad, that
Austria's forthcoming reply to the
last American note concerning the
sinking of the AnconaS will fail to
meet the demands of the United
States
Various developments, it is agreed,
may avoid such an eventuality, but
none of the counter proposals, which
it has been intimated the Vienna for
eign office may advance, have been re-
garded so far as coming within Sec
rotary Lansing's renewal of the de-
mands for disavowal, PREPARATION and
punishment of the submarine COM
mander who sunk the Ancona with
the loss of more than a dozen Ameri-
can lives.
Now that the situation, after being
dormant nearly two weeks, is again
beginning to take on the aspects of a
crisis, the status of the negotiations
of the United States over submarine
warfare against merchantmen, not
with Austria alone, but with the Teu-
tonic powers as allies, is commanding
attention.
Although Germany has given the
United States assurances that she will
conform to the principle Of visit and
search before attack the practices
against which the United States so
vigorously contended are being carried
on now by her ally, Austria, and it
has been charged that the Austrian
submarines are, in some instances,
furnished by Germany and in others
are differed and manned by the Ger
man navy.
Such situation, it is being pointed
out, amounts to practically a defeat
of the submarine negotiations with
Germany. -...-. -.
Furthermore, the impasse. in the
Lusitania negotiations becomes fac
tor in the situation. 1t is admitted
that the United States scarcely can
require Austria to conduct submarine
warfare in its relation to the rights :. IS

that permitted to Germany
