.ORYS WIN SWEEPING
VICTORY IN MANITOBA

Winnipeg March 14.-Prohibition
won cweeping victory in the PROV
ince of Manitoba. With many rural
constituencies not yet reported the
total vote in favor of the temperance
act was 44.O40, as against 20.72s for
the liquor interests.
Even in Winnipeg, the supposed
stronghold of the vets, prohibition
won by almost 5000 majority. OF all
constituencies returned only two gave
majorities against the act, North Win.
nipeg and st. Boniface, for total of
IS votes.
A noticeable feature was the heavy
dry maj0rities rolled up in districts
with large Icelandic and Scandinavian
colonies.
The temperance act closes all re.
tail, wholesale and club bars June 1.
Liquor still may be imported by indi-
viduals and the manufacture of liQ-
uor in the province to be exported is
not prohibited.

CONGRESS APPROVES
PRESIDENTS E! j 2! POLICY

Washington, March 9.-Congress
both branches of it, stands behind
President Wilson in the negotiations
with Germany resulting from that
country's submarine activities.
The house, after an exciting ses-
sion, tabled the famous McLemore
resolution, which provided that Amer
leans be warned not to take passage
on the armed ships of belligerent ma
lions.
The vote was 276 to 142. Last week
the senate tabled the Gore resolution,
similar to Representative McLemore's.
On the vote to table the McLemore
resolution big Democratic majority
and half of the Republicans voted to
sustain the administration.
With his hands unleashed by con-
gress the president is prepared to pro-
coed with diplomatic negotiations over
submarine warfare.

GERMANY DECLARES
war ON PORTUGAL

Berlin, March 10.-Germany has
declared war on Portugal and the
Portuguese minister has been handed
his passports.
The German declaration emphasized
the fact that this step was made
necessary by the recent illegal seiz'
ures Of German ships in Portuguese
ports, which is the gravest sort Of
breach of neutrality.
The declaration also enumerates q
long series of breaches of neutrality
by the Portuguese government.

VESSEL GIVEN NO WARNING
Norwegian Ship Said to Have Been
Torpedoed.

Paris, March ID. o. Osborne,
American consul at Havre, in his re-
port to Washington on the sinking of
the Norwegian bark Cilius, is under
stood to bring out clearly that the ST.
Illus was torpedoed by a submarine.
The seven Americans, who were on
board the bark, were looking after a
cargo of oats which was consigned to
the French government. These men
and the members of the crew have
been questioned by the consul, who
has cabled a summary of their testi-
mony to Washington.
Their testimony. it is said, leaves
no doubt that the Silius was torpedOed
without warning. A full report on the
sinking of the vessel will be mailed
to Washington.

FOR ADVANCE ON TREBIz0ND
Russia Preparing to Use Captured
Port as Naval Base.

London, March 11.--Russia is pre-
pairing to use the recently captured
harbor of Ria as naval base for the
advance on Trebizond, which is thir-
ty-five miles distant, according to Pc
trograd dispatches. Ria is an ideal
harbor and offers ample shelter and
anchorage. In this way the Russians
will have the advantage of satisfac-
tory communications by sea, while the
Turks are handicapped by incredibly
bad land communications. The Rus
SLAMS have complete mastery in the
Black sea and are keeping ceaseless
watch on the Bosporus.
