Five Unaccounted For

LONDON, March 27.-A telegram from Boulogne to the owners of the Sussex says that Miss Elizabeth Bald win was among the Americans who arrived there, but there is believed to be some doubt of the accuracy of this report.
 The records of the American em- bassy up to 6 o'clock tonight show, in addition to Miss Baldwin, only Pro- lessor NJ. J. Mark Baldwin, Joshua D.. Armitage, Calliop Fennell and Edna Hale are still unaccounted for. The other Americans have arrived in France or England.
 George Crocker has net recovered consciousness but shows some signs of improvement. Wilbur Penfield, in the same hospital at Dover. has re . gained consciousness and is much bet ter He is suffering from a fractured leg and injuries to the head
 The Paris dispatch giving an inter view with Edna Hale indicates that she is safe, although her name is not in the French list of American sur vivors.

SHANGHAI March 26.-Twenty six cases containing 390 shells and 9G,oO0 pistol cartridges. which were being conveyed from the international settlement in the direction of the Xii angnan arsenal in Shanghai, were seized by the police today.
 A protest against the seizure was made by two Germans who produced a document sealed by the minister of marine, but as they had no munition permit the document was invalid.
 The police arrested five coolies who will be brought into court tomorrow.
 The Shanghai authorities cannot proceed against foreigners implicated in illicit trading in arms without the consent of their consulate, which is not expected.

ment that ofiicials considered the pub
lication Of the story today as politi-
cal move to embarass the department
in the conduct Of it's foreign affairs.
In addition, it was also made clear
the department believes foreign IN
fIuences were also seeking to take ad-
vantage of the political situation IN
bringing up the issue at this time.
Although no official would say def1-
nitely when the Lusitania case would
be settled, indications were that ne
gotiations would not be concluded un-
til after the election.
Folks view, it was pointed out, Is
similar to that Of Secretary Lansing
and President Wilson that foreign al.
fairs should not be mingled in politics.
The general view has been that
there is very little difficulty ahead OF
actual settlement.
Polk refused to be specific as to
the contents Of the memorandum.
The published story referred to de.
clared the United States had waived
its demands for . disavowal OF the
ILusitania torpedoing.
The article continued that an agree
ment should be reached with Germany
wherein the United States would rec
ognixe that the LusitAaaA sinking was
justified though the loss OF American
lives was not justified. Germany. the
article asserted, would express regret
for the loss of American lives and
prum1oe nnanc1al reparAtton.

force of marines that was threatened
by a huge mob that gathered about
the municipal theatre, abandoned the

A battalion of Greek infantry has
surrounded the palace.
Thus far there has been no seri-

ST. LOUIS. Mo-. Oct -1S.-With the
important prayer changes concurred
IN by the house Of deputies Of the
protestant Episcopal church. the joint
session OF the deputies and the house
of bishops took up the question of
missions today.
There was comment on the possi-
bility Of debate on the question Of
JUNCTION. The so-called Catholic
wing Of the conference is expected to
bring the question before the house il
further action is taken on the revision
of prayers. The "unctionists" are
hopeful despite the fact the joint COM
mission on common prayer refused to
make any recommendation for an "of-
fee for the annointing OF the sick"
Members Of the joint commission
on common prayer today said there
might be further debate on some of
the prayers now used by the church.
The adoption Of the prayer asking
the health Of the president Of the
United States and all In authority
and asking the safety and preserve
ton OF the nation. came late yester-
day. The omission OF the words "the
governor OF this state" from the 3ev-
eninE prayer also caused considerable
debate, but the commission report to
omit the words finally was adopted.
The report Of the Joint commission
on the revision Of commandments
which recommends the shortening Of
six of the Ten Commandments is yet
to come before the deputies for con-
sideraton. In it's present position on
the calendar Of the house. 1t is likely
to come up for debate late today or
tomorrow. The report proposes the
following changes from the present
commandments. If the report is
adopted, the commandments will
read
NO change from present.
2-Thou shalt not make unto thy
self any craven image nor the like
ness of anything that is in heaven
above or in the earth beneath or in
the water under the earth: thou shalt
not bow down to them nor worship

mo change.
8-No change
s.-Thou shalt not bear false wit
ness.
1o-Thou shalt not covet anything
that is thy neighbor's.
The proposed form eliminates words
of explanation or argument for their
observance. This is the part which
it is proposed to eliminate because
they are used in the litany of the
church which forms one of the most
important parts of the protestant
Episcopal prayer book.
