BLOCKADE EFFECTIVE
London to Be the Clear ing House for Neutral Diplomats for Their
 NeCeSSaTieS.

NEW YORK, Dec. g. = The Worlds correspondent aI Vienna forwards the following dispatch via Berlin and the wireless service;
 The First American to try to break the British hunger blockade of the Central Empires--on behalf of hungry Amencans-is Ambas- sador Frederick c. Penfeld, sta toned here. The ambassador has ordered approximately 60,00O lbs. of food from the United States for his embassy corps and the seven consulate corps within his iuris- diction. Secretaries, attaches and consuls, especially those on small salaries, have been seriously handi- capped. not only by the difficulties they have experienced in obtaining food, but especially by the unprece- dented prices.
 Consul-General Halsted communi- cated with Consul-General Skin Ter at London iii the same manner that Consul-General Lay, at Berlin, had done, asking whteer the Brit ish Government would permit the shipment of food for the embassy and consular corps. Mir Skinner appears to have answered that the British declined the request. CABLES FOR TWO CARLOADS.
 But Mr. Penfeld has taken the stand that employees of the United States Government, many of whom are working for the belligernts by looking after prisoners and inter- ests, have a right to tobtain food, and without negotiations with Lon don has cabled Secretary of State Lansing for two carloads of food which Mir. Lansing ordered the quartermaster- general of the army to i'll. t is now en route on the Noordam of the Holland-American Line"
 The shipment, it is said, includ. cd 2COO pounds of lard, 1000 pounds Of butter, fifty barrels of flour, ba- con, ham, canned meats, condensed milk, cream, cereals and canned fruits.

tically all their necessaries outside of those countries, witt London act ing as a clearing house.
 This means that the United States has arranged that these mem bers of the United States official family, at their own expense, may buy foodstulfs outside the Central Powers and ;, is Q convincin- proof of the shortage of food ia those countries.
 A serious question now is how the supplies can reach their destin- alton, for Holland has been cut of for some days. An American coirier who left Berlin on Novem- Der 6 and later was taken to Zee brugge by the Germans, has just arrived here, having made the trip from Rotterdam by the Dutch liner Ryndam. The embassy here is in- yestigating the other possible routes for dispatching foodstuffs and the diplomatic mails.
 Sometimes the mails alone amount to two tons. They may be sent via Copenhagen in the future un- less the Dutch resume traffic again.

WASHINGTON. D. C., April 25.- The bodies of thirty-one Spanish Sailors who were members of Ad- miral Cervera's fleet in the naval bat tie of July 3, 1898, off Santiago de Cuha who were captured by the Unit ed States and later died in this coun- try have been formally transferred to the representatives of. the Spanish Government at PortSfhouth (N.

 LAT0UCHE CLAIMS
IS PROMISING COPPER GROUP
Six Men Have Been Employed by H. w. Vance on Property Recently Bonded from John Wilson and Joseph Little.

H. w. Vance, the we'll known min ing man, returned last night from Latouche island, where he went to in- spect the Wilson-Little copper prop erty, consisting of group of ten claims.
 MT. Vance recently took bond of the property, which is considered one of the most promising properties on the Sound. A large amount of devel- opment work has already been done, and as the property is equipped with machinery of the most modern type, with an ample hydro-electric power plant, the bringing it up to shipping basis will require comparatively lit tie time. MT. Vance has ample finan- cial backing to carry out any project he may undertake and it is anticipat- ed the property will be put on the list of shippers this summer.
 A crew of six men has already been put to work, and this number will be increased as conditions warrant.

FEARS POWER ..... 0F vEN|zEL0S
GREEK GOVERNMENT WORRIED
Popularity of Former Minister Who Sought to Bring Greece Into Con- flict on Side of Allies Disturbs High
 ''-is. '..t.t officials. E q;

ATHENS, April 25.-The extent to which former Premier Venizelos has obtained popular support since his re-entry into politics is causing grave concern in government circles.
 The meetings of the adherents of Venizelos, who as Premier was strongly in favor of Greece joining the Allies in the war against Ger many and Austria. are being made occasions of extraordinary demonstra- tions, and it is impossible to predict the result of the campaign against the present government.
 When Venizelos occupied the office of Premier, it was only by the utmost endeavors of the king that the coun- try was enabled to maintain it's neu- tral position. With the increasing popularity of the Ex-Premier, it is doubtful if even the King can hold the country to neutrality should Ven izelos take a prominent position in the government.

REPORTED MINE
 BEEN Fl! FINANCED
HENDRIcKsftN GETS CAPITAL
Work on Three in One Mine Has, Been
 Resumed, and It Is Expected Prop , erty Will Be Placed in Producing ,,
 Class This Summer.

There is rumOr about town that the Three in One property, near Shoup bay, has been financed by M. F. Hendrickson, who is now in New York, and that the development of this promising property will proceed without interruption.
 MT. F. J. Devinney, who has an in- terest in the property, and who has superintended the development work already done, when questioned re garding the report, refused to either confirm or deny it. He stated, how ever, that he had put three men to work on the ground, and from this it is easy to deduce that money has been raised to go ahead with the work.
 The Three in One property is con- sidered one of the most promising gold quartz properties on the bay. A large amount of work has been done there, with most satisfactory results, and sufficient ore has been blocked out, of exceptionally rich values, to warrant the placing of a mill on the claims. It is expected that within a short time the mill will be installed, and another mine added to the list of producers before the summer is over. MT. Devinney is very optimistic over the future of the property and has turnd down several offers to take over the property. The claims have an exceptionally good showing of rich ore, and he is satisfied it will become a big dividend payer.
