made public, but at the conclusion of
the session Mr.. Knox announced that
all Fay wanted to do was to plead
guilty to the governments charge

They are the Fay case, the Buenz
case and the three passport cases.
In none of the cases did the actual
defendants know what the defendants
In the other cases were doing. The
four sources, however, directing these
five cases are very close together

Wilson to Demand That Vienna Give
Same Guarantees az Berlin.
Washington Wilson does
not intend to pursue waiting policy
toward Austria's submarine campaign,
but will at once demand of the dual
monarchy the same assurances of
safety for Americans aboard liners
that we're given by Germany only
after repeated warnings. This is the
consensus of opinion in diplomatic
and official circles here following the
publication of conflicting reports by
Austria and Italy as to whether the
liner Ancona was warned before she
was sunk by an Austrian submarine
and as to the alleged shelling of the
Ancona's lifeboats. The president was
deeply shocked by the Ancona tragedy.
He had believed that the whole
submarine controversy was settled
and the prospect of renewal of the
kind of attacks on which were based
the American notes to Germany dis
tressed him greatly.
Therefore, it Is understood, he will
ask Austria at once to give the United
States the assurances which Germany
finally has given.
