New York, April 16.-Typhus, ty- phoid and recurrent fever are epi- demic in Serbia, smallpox and scarlet fever also are present in some com. munhies. and cholera is expected with the warmer weather of spring, according to a report made public here today by the Rockefeller Founda- tion war relief commission. which has been Investigating conditions in that stricken country.
 The Serbian government, the report says. is absorbed in the conduct of war and civil employees are too much occupied with the demands of mili- tary service to gather statistics, but estimates based on inadequate infor nation place the number of typhus cases in the country at from 25000 to 30,000.
 The commissions observers found the three epidemic diseases distri5. uted throughout the country in all communities and In all the larger hospitals.
 'ln Nish the report states, "an English physician said it was his be. lief that a hundred patients were dying of typhus daily.
 One day during the visit of the commission it was reported that the cemetery at Nish contained 250 m. buried bodies of typhus victims, the force of grave diggers being entirely una, Neep up with the work.

SWINGING PROTESTS
 AGAINST GERMANY
SINKING OF DUTCH STEAMER BY SUBMARINE IS ROUNDLY
 CONDEMNED.

The Hague, via London, April 1G.- Further ministerial conferences were held today to consider the sinking of the Dutch steamer Katwyk from Bal tmore for Rotterdam with d cargo of grain consigned to The Netherlands government, in the North sea We'd nesday night The sinking Of the steamer without warning has aroused the most widespread public irritation and has called forth stnging protests from all the newspapers, even those inclined toward the German side
 The papers say there appears no doubt but that a German submarine was guilty, and the question is asked generally whether the captain of the submarine was acting against specific instruction to avoid sinking neutral ships or whether the orders recently were changed by Germany One ca son given for the submarines action is the widespread report that 800 Belgians were to cross from England Wednesday night en route to join the forces fighting in Belgium under King Albert.
 Some of the papers assume that this report was communicated to the sub- marine, which usually is lurking in the vicinity of North Hinder light ship, and that the commander of the underwater boat torpedoed every yes. sel possible in the hope Of striking the ship carrying the Belgians,
 It is understood, however. that the Belgians crossed safely.

ITALY'S FIRST LINE
 TOTALS 100000 MEN
PERFECTLY ARMED AND EQUIP PED, AND AGES RANGE FROM
 20 TO 26 YEARS.

On the Italian frontier, via Paris, April l6.-ltaly today has 100000 first line soldiers under arms. They are from 20 to 26 years of age. They are perfectly armed and equipped General Zupelli, minister of war said e miracle had been accomplished, in that a country which for about 20 years had maintained military or ganiaztion merely for the preseWa tion of peace had created what ha termed one of the most perfect of war machines
 The change was not easy, General ZupelIi said, as was proven wherever the same work was attempted. Great Britain, for example. had faced the same problem, and though possessing greater resources was even less pre- pared than Italy
 The war minister said that the equipment of the army with weapons was superior propprtiOnately 10 that of the German army at the beginning of the war EagerRess of the soldiers concentrated along the frontier to be- gin action is so grea thata tleir off cers are compelled to hold them closely in check for fear of disturbing border incidents
 In view of the extensive prepara- tions which have been made the question is asked with increasing fire. quency why Italy does not enter the war Men in a position to speak with authority say that a majority of the people prefer and the government still hopes to attain territorial con. sessions from Austria without rur. ture of friendly relations.
 Weather conditions in the Alps must also be remembered in consider. ing Italy's probable action. Snow still lies deep in the mountains and the cold is intense Most of the passes stiH are closed by snow and ice.

STANFORD WHITES SLAYER LOSES HIS CASE IN SUPREME

Court in Rendering Opinion Said That the State Would Be We'll Rid of So Troublesome a Guest-Thaw Makes No Comment.

New York, April 1G.-IIarry Ken dall Thaw was today ordered back to the state hospital for the criminal in- sane at Matteawan by the appellate division of the New York supreme court In an opinion concurred in by all the justices, the court affirmed the denial by Supreme Court Justice Page Of motion to return Thaw to the jurisdiction of the state of New Hampshire whence he was extradited to stand trial for conspiring to escape from Matteawan, and ruled that the original order committing him to the institution was still valid Plans are now being formulated to take the case to the state court of appeals
 A decision adverse to Thaw came as a great surprise to his counsel.
 The court held that in returning in. voluntarily to this jurisdiction Thaw was subject to no promise or induce. ment, and that New Hampshire had only done the duty expected of 1t when it returned him to New York to answer for a crime for whIch .he->fifssss;I.. 1 been indicted.
 The order carried with it the provi. sion that Thaw could not be taken from New York county until five days have elapsed.
 The writ of habeas corpus sworn out in Thaws behalf after he was ac. | quilted of the charge of conspiracy is | finally returnable on Monday. At that time counsel will present argu- ments urging that their client be granted permission to have a jury de- termine his present mental condition. Should a decision unfavorable to Thaw be forthcoming by Wednesday the state will have the right to return him to Matteawan forthwith, provid- ing his counsel shall have not eal. tained a stay of execution on the 5f, der committing him to Matteawan. pending appeal.
 Thaw himself refused tonight to comment upon the action of the court.
 The opinion of the appellate divi- sion concluded as follows:
 Tt may be that the state would be well rid of sO troublesome a. guest, and that in view of his acquittal it is to be regretted that, having once left it, he was brought back, but that $ not matter for judicial considera- tion Certainly if we were to release him from the restraining effect of the commitment, we have no power to compel his deportation. but must re- lease him internationally leaving it to him to determine whether he will go or stay"

INVESTIGATION BEING MADE OF LAPS WORK IN LOWER
 CALIFORNIA.
JAPANESE GIVE ASSURANCES
Cabinet Discussed the Matter and Rear Admiral Howard is Ordered to laps Movements.

Washington, April l6-While disin. clined to credit reports that Japan had established a naval base at''rurue Bay, Lower California United States officials today instituted an invest ga. tion with the idea of learning exactly what use the bellissrent watships were making of Mexican territorial waters
 Secretary Daniels instructed Rear Admiral Howard of the Pacific fleet to ascertain whether there was any foundation for the published stories. Secretary Bryan has received no in, formataion from the American con. suls in Lower California that the Jap, anese intend to establish naval base there.
 Enrique C. Llorente. Washington representative of General Villa tele. graphed Estevan Cantu, military gov. ernor Of Lower California. which is controlled by the Villa faction, to make an investigation of the sitUa. ton.
 Commander Nomura, naval attache Of the Japanese embassy. called in. formally on navy department officials today and assured them that there was no truth in the reports that an attempt was being made to establish a permanent naval base. He is un- derstood to have explained that the presence of the Japanese warships was due entirely to the accident to the cruiser Asama, which ran aground there recently.
 There was informal discussion of the Turtle Bay situation at today $ cabinet meeting, but the general tend ency was to discredit current reports. Cabinet officers who are in touch with American wreckinc companies attempting to float the Asama pointed out that the vessel was fast in the mud, almost to her decks. Navy of ficers who have given attention to Che subject say it would not be surpris ng if the Asama never was refloated.
 The fact that British colliers were assisting the Japanese warships con vinced high officials there could be no foundation for the idea that any movement was afoot to establish a permanent base.
 Should it develop that the British and Japanese vessels were actually using Mexican waters as a temporary base of supplies. it is considered pos sible that the attention of the Mexi. can authorities may be called to it by the Washington government and the matter be brought to the attention of Great Britain and Japan.
