EXPLOSION DUE.
 NAVY RED TAPE
Commander of Submarine E-2 De. clares that Use of Gas Detectors
 Had Been Urged Long Ago.

4 NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-L.eutenant Cooke, commander of the submarine E-2, testifying before the Committee of naval officers appointed to inves- tigate the explosion on the submarine last week which caused the deaths of four persons, declared that the disaster was due to the red tape regu- lations of the navy department.
 The officer asserts that the explo- sion, which occurred while the bat teries were being recharged, was due to accumulation of gas which was li- able to occur at any time. Complaints had been lodged with the department that the system of charging the bat teries was dangerous unless hydro gen detectors were employed but the complaints had apparently been ig- nored. ...., ....
 It is believed that the testimony of the commander of the submarine will result in a general shaking up of the department similar to that which fol- lowed the investigation of the loss of the submarine in Honolulu harbor to- gether with her crew.

VICE INCREASE DUE LOW WAGE SCALE
Vice Committee Appointed by Ohio
 State Senate Recommends Min. imum Wage Scole.

SPRINGFIELD, Jan. 20.-The committee appointed by the Ohio State senate to investigate and re- port upon the industrial and social conditions of the State in order to ascertain the cause of the increase of vice in the State, has filed its re- port with Governor Willis.
 The report, which is exhaustive and covers the question of vice from ev- cry angle, declares that poverty in the large cities is the principal cause of prostitution. It is said that the ranks of the underworld have been filled by girls who were formerly in domestic service where they lacked social sta tus and were barred from many of the pleasures of life enjoyed by their more fortunate sisters.
 It is declared that the unregulated wage conditions which have prevail ed in the State bred immortality as many girls employed in the factories were earning insufficient to provide the barest necessities of life and were forced into lives of shame unless they had ohmes of their own. The com mittee also reports that hundreds of married women are being employed in factories and workshops at wage scales which would not provide for girls who had to rely upon their own earnings.
 It is urged that the passage of 8 measure providing a minimum wage scale of not less than eight dollars per week is necessary if the govern ment wishes to protect the girl work CTS of the large cities.

AUSTRIAN PEACE
 TERMS DECLINED
Rome Reports that the Montenegro Troops Have Resumed Fight
 ing as Terms Not Good.

ROME, Jan. 2O.-It is reported from Cettinje that the Montenegro troops who were said to have sur rendered to. the Austrian troops at Grahavo have again resumed fighting as the terms of peace offered by the
 Austrian government were unsatis- factory.
 Details as to the terms which were offered King Nicholas country have not been received. It Is believed that the Austrian government would be satisfied with nothing less than the abonlion of Independence of Montenegro, and making 1t one of the Austrian provinces.
 It is also believed that the plan of the Austrian commander of the victo- rious troops te concentrate the entire male population in certain districts, which would compel their being sep |arated from their families until after the close of the war, has been a de- factor in the refusal of the IMontenegrins to accept the peace terms offered. The dispatches indi- cate that a majority of King Nicho- las' troops have made their way into Albania where they have joined the Serbian forces who retreated into ithe mountains before the Bulgarian Invaders. . .-.-..... .-.-'

WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 20.- The twelve million dollar emergency appropriation bill which was referred to the House committee on ApprOprj- ations will be reported back to the House next Tuesday with the recOm- mendation that it be favorably act ed upon.
 It is reported that the bill includes the two million dollar emergency a2 propriation asked by Secretary Lane, of the department of the Interior, for the purpose of continuing construc- ton of the government railroad in Alaska. A poll of the members of both houses has been taken and shows that the appropriation will pass when it comes up next week with a safe majority.
 It is expected that 8 fight will de yelop in the house over the appro- priation of $S,500,000 from which the amount in the emergency appro' priation will be deducted. Senator Nelson, of Minnesota, is spoken of af the leader of the opposition to ex- tending the railroad into interior Alaska at the present time.

WAR HAS CAUSED 1 AMERICA BIG LOSS Exports for Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 1915, Shows Decrease of Many Million Dollars.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O.-The re- port of the Department of Commerce Ito Congress for the fiscal year end- ling June 30, 1915, shows that the European war has caused a decrease in the exports of the United States of one hundred and ninety-two million dollars as compared with that of the previous twelve months.
 The decrease in the exports, the re- port says, is due directly to the Eu- ropean war. Prior to the beginning of hostilities Germany was one of the best customers of American products, having imported goods to the value of vo.4,794,276 during the year end ling June 30, 1914. The blockade of the German coast by the British and French warships caused an almost complete Interruption of trade be- tween America and Central Euro lpean countries. The loss of the Ger man trade by reason. of the block lade has proved severe blow to the cotton industry of. the United States. fThe increase in, the exports of cop iper, steel and all class of war mate rials has been enormous, especially Ito England, and Russia. n." ;
 The report, covering as it does the twelve months directly following the beginning of- hostilities in Europe'
  shows that during the six months fol- lowing the opening of the war ex- ports decreased at the rate of more than three hundred million dollars annually. This was due in part to the sudden termination of the Ger man and Austrian demand for Amer. lican goods and the complete change (which the war worked in the econom |ic conditions of the belligerent na- ltions of Europe.
