French Fiinancier Sees Change
Wrought As Result Of
Present War

New York, Nov. 10,-New York is
bound to supplaut London as the
world S financial center, according to
NJ. Chouffour of the visiting French
commissioners, who are intent on ar
ranging for purchase of millions of
dollars worth of American products to
rehabilitate France after the war.
"London may not like it," com
mented Chouffour, polishing his mon
ocle, "but it is inevitable. Civiliza-
tion and finance are moving west

The commission will go to Washing.
ton to meet Ambassador Jusserand and
administration officials.
M. D'Amour, leader of the commits
sion, explained that the delegates are
not engaged now in making contracts
but are looking over factories with 0
view to making vast future purchases

of the Aucona torpedoing reported un.
officially to have been landed at Bier.
ia, Tunis, orders were given today for
authorities there to do their utmost to

Meantime, admiralty officials incln.
ed to suspect that Germans rather than
Austrians were responsible for the tor.
pedoing. Though the attacking sub.
marine flew the Austrian flag, authori.
ties thought it natural to expect that
the Germans would hoist the Austrian
0olors in case they were operating
against an Italian vessel ihasmuch as
Italy and Germany are not at war.
This view was strengthened here
from the fact that no Austrian subma.
rines have been reported lately in the
Mediterranean though they have prob
ably been in the Adriatic, while Ger.
man undersea craft are known to have
been in the Mediterranean.
The Germans already have sunk a
number of French and few small Ital
ian merchantmen.

submarine as the assailunt. This fits

Fate of Many Unknown.

Rome, Nov 10.--The fate of the miss
ing persons who were aboard the Ital-
ian liner Ancona which was torpedoed
yesterday by an Austrian submarine
was still uncertain today. Ten hun
dred and seventy had been reported
landed at Bizerta, Tunis, and other re-
ports indicated additional survivors
landed elsewhere.
Meantime the government made cv.
cry effort to get exact figures.
Whether any Americans were among
the victims of the Austrian undersea
craft was still in doubt
That the tOrpedoing came with little
or no warning was deemed probable
from the fact that among the survivors
are some wounded. This indicates that
the torpedo struck the vessel while her
company was still aboard.
The submarine which sank the An,
coma was of large type and flew the

Naples from New York on October 2!
carrying 1245 Italian reservists and was

London, Nov. 10.--Nearly three hun.
dred persons, mostly women and chill,
dren, possibly including several Amer
leans, lost, their lives when submarine
torpedo crashed into the Italian liner
Ancona off Bizerta, Tunis, yesterday,
according to Lloyds today.
OF 5S2 aboard only 270 are definite
ly accounted for as saved.
Madrid dispatches reporting British
destruction of two German submarines
off Gibraltar were deemed significant
Suggestions were current that Ger.
man unterseeboote, shielded behind an
Austrian flag, was the real perpetrator
of what was denounced by Englishmen
as an objectionable outrage. Whether
the attack ON the vessel was without
warning, or whether she was attempting
flight, was not known.
Survivors, according to dispatches
have been landed at Bizerta, Cape Bon
and Ferryville, Africa.
Prince Cassano, Il famous Italian
painter, was among the passengers but
his fate is unknown. Rome advices in
dicated that the heaviest casualties
were among the emigrant passengers.
That the attacking submarine fired
100 shells at the Ancona gave some
ground for belief that she was attempt
ing to escape.
Lloyds figures gained confirmation
as the day wore on for the United
States consul at Naples reported 27C
saved.
AT the same time, belief that Ameri
cans were among the missing developed
into a certainty.
Berlin officially reported that al
Austrian submarine sank tho Ancona
but excused it on the ground that the
Italian vessel sought to flee.
The Ancona was Of S,2l0 tons, AS.
feet in length and 5S feet beam.
She had been engaged in carrying
Italian reservists from New York anC
