NENI News Service l

C.
 Syracuse, N. r., May 1o-Biparti- san political chieftains gathered here to aid William Barnes in his libel suit against Col. Roosevelt. It was planned to launch testimony for Barnes after lengthy arguments to Justice Andrew on motions of the plaintiff to strike out testimony the Roosevelt witnesses have given in justification or proof of the alleged libel
 Several such motions were formal. to make a record in case of appeal.
 The most determined fight came upon motion to strike out the testi- mony on Barnes alleged participation in, and, because of political demi- Aance responsibility for public print ing graft. Barnes counsel contended that no direct or circumstantial proof of Barnes participation had been of fered
 Barnes had a dozen witnesses-Re- publicans and Democrats, including legislative leaders and politicians of national repute-here ready to start his attack upon Roosevelts case. Among them were former Lieut. Gov. William F. Sheehan, candidate for United States senator in 1911, and for mer Senators E. R. Brown of Water town and J. J. Frawley of New York.

Paris, May 12.-It is being persist ently rumored in Paris that Germany and Austria-Hungary have already de- clared or are about to declare war on Italy in anticipation of such action on her part directed against themselves This report, however. has received no confirmation of any kind.
 Another rumor current on the bourse was that the italian govern ment had signed an agreement with the allies-Great Britain, France and Russia-to take part in the war not later than May 26. This rumor also is without confirmation.
 French observers of the political situation in Italy infer from the audi ence between King Victor Emmanuel and former Prime Minister Gio1itti that the noninterVention party in Italy has determined to withdraw all oppo- sition to the war.
 Parties Would Be United.
 Consequently the Italian parties would be united in support of a war policy, in the judgment of French ob- servers based on two fundamental considerations namely that wrongs have been done 10 Servia and Belgium and that the racial aspirations of the Italians on the eastern shore of the Adriatic and in the Mediterranean now can be satisfied.
