naval writer's that the steamers with
modern speed, which observe obvious
precautions, can invariably escape the
underwater craft and such vessels
are continuing to cross the seas.
The blockade, however, has had the
effect of increasing insurance rates
and some neutral owners are keeping
their ships in neutral waters.
With conditions such as these the
public both in England and neutral
/ countries are naturally curious as to
the latest proposal of the American
government to Great Britain and Ger
many, of which little has been allowed
20 leak out either in London or Berlin,
and also as to what the allies reply
% the German blockade will be, an
other matter in which secrecy is be-
ing maintained
! In addition to the loss of the merch-
antmen, the British admiralty has
been impelled to give up hope for the
armed steamer Clan MacNaughton
which has not been heard from since
February 3 and which it is believed
went down as did another armed
| merchantmen. the Viknor, during the
storms which prevailed early in the
month. The Clan MacNaughton car
ried a crew of so men, consisting
largely of royal naval reserve men,
twenty Of whom belonged to New
Foundland.
The admiralty also reported tonight
the loss Of three positions along the
Belgian coast.
Nothing further has been heard of

les, which were interrupted by unfav-
orable weather conditions, but it is
understood the intention is to con-
tinue all efforts to demolish the forts
which line the straits. Otherwise the

scrs1tamia, are being permitted to
rest while preparatiOns are being
made by the allies for powerful at

A wireless report from Berlin says
that further obstacles have arisen to
prevent the invasion of Russia and
this would seem to confirm reports
from Petrograd that the Russians are
making successful stand against the
Invaders along their fortress line on
the northern rivers.
The Russians from all acconnts are
also holding back the Austrians in
Rnkowina and it is stated in an of.

occupied the important railway center

MILLION DOLLARS IN WAR PREPARATIONS

ROME, Feb 24.-Close observers
in Rome of the political situation de
clare that since the readiness of Italy
to join in the war has become appar.

her continued neutrality has grown
stronger.
1t is declared in a reliable quarter
that Prince Won Buelow. the German
ambassador to Italy, has summarized
the Italian situation to his govern
ment substantially as follows
Italy has spent nearly two billion
lire ($400,000,000) in war preparations
since the outbreak of hostilities;
consequently, action on her part is
daily becoming more imperative.
Furthermore, for international reasons
all political parties are asking the
government to obtain as matter of
diplomatic negotiation or through the
use of the Italian army and navy the
fulfillment of the aspirations of the
nation, particularly in return for the
heavy sacrifices already made.
Germany urged Austria Hungary
