American Marines
Pacify Black Republic

Washington, Jan. 3.-In marked con
trast to the fate of the French army in
its conquest Of Haiti when thousands
fell victim to plague and pestilence, is
the experience of the United States
Marine corps in its pacification work
in that war.torn little Caribbean repub'
lie. Medical officers, in reports just
received by headquarters Of the Marine
corps in this city, state that the health
Of the marines could not be better de-
spite the fact that they have often been
called upon to march 90 miles day
over rough mountain roads, under q
blistering tropical sun, and under con
ditions Of actual warfare.
Haiti, according to these medical Of.
fieers, has had for over hundred years
the reputation Of being one of the most
unhealthy spots in the world, and it has
been the common belief that no white
man could live there when subjected
to hardships aud exposure. But it re.
maincd for our marines to disprove this
theory. They have had great experience
in climates closely resembling that Of
Haiti. and have learned to take the
necessary precautions so essential to the
maintenance Of perfect health in thu
tropics.
Foot troubles were few and far be.
tween, the medical officers say, and the
deaths have been caused by bullets, not
disease.

Washington, Jan. 3.-The graviti the international
situation caused by topedong of the British liner Glen
gye, coming on the heels of the sinking of the liner
Persia caused President Wilson today to determine to cut
his vacation short and return here arriving tomorrow
morning.
The Southern railway took immediate steps to fetch
him quickly here and at set to work to send his
private to Hot Springs He should be in the capital
early tomorrow, according to present plans.
Meantime official circles awaited details of both the
Persia and Glengye sinkngs with most anxious fore
bodngs Their worst fears realized in the death of
American Consul McNeely of Adam and the reports that
the topedoing without warning required BY inter-
national and humane law.
While it was reported that the president will call
cabinet session Immediately upon his return the state de-
partment showed the real gravity of the situation when it
said mo effort should be made to minimize the serious
ness of the situation Moreover it was intimated that
understanding with all the central allies as to submarine
attacks will be demanded Immediately.

Double Track Road From Petrograd
To Ice Free Port Boon For Russia

Petrograd, Jan. 3.-(Special. Ut has
been apparent since the early stages OF
the war - and is at present doubly SO
that Russia greatly needed an effic-
lent and reliable means of communica-
tion with the outside world. The war
conditions in the Baltic and the Black
sea left her with only very scanty
means of obtaining supplies and muni-
tions.
The three chief means were (D
the Archangel route; (2) the Trans.
Siberian railway; and (3) the Trans
vik-Tornea route. All of these have
great drawbacks. The port of Arch.
angel is closed by the iron grip of
the Arctic winter for six months in
the year = from October to May -
and its railway communication with
the capital is poor and indirect. Tho
Trans-Siberian route is useless for
the rapid transit of supplies and mu.
nitions, and the Nirvik- -Tornea route
involves shipment at the head of
the Gulf of Bothnia, which causes
delays and dangers
The New Harbor in the North.
Russia realized that her success
depended, and still depends, on re-
ceiving promptly and in large guam
titles munitions of war. Though the
Arctic ocean is the last place in the
world where one would expect to
find an all-the-year ice-free port =
that is, one that is open all the year
round-yet it is so at Ekaterina har-
Dor according to the result Of the Of
ficial investigations.
This harbor is situated about 200
miles east of North Cape in Norway,
and the anomalous ice-free features
are due undoubtedly to the effect of
the Gulf Stream which before finally
losing itself in Arctic waters back
washes along the Lapland and Muir
man coast, and prevents more than
q thin film of ice water forming in
Ekaterina harbor. To connect this
harbor with Petrograd by an effici-
ent railroad was the chief considera-
tion Of Russia. American engineers
and contractors were consulted and
thousands Of men were engaged for
the work, which was begun stimuli,
taneously at both ends. Large gangs
of workmen were sent to intermedi.
ate points and ordered to build to-
wards the ends.
Building the Railroad.
Tho. result was that in September
this triumph of modern engineering
was declared complete three weeks. in
advance Of contract time. The new
road has been built through difficult
country - a land of morass and
swamp where every foot had to be
made, and yet at such pressure was
the work carried on that 100 miles
of double track per month was ac
complished. Russia now has an open
door through which she may look al
the outside world. All that is needed

Alexandria, Egypt, Jan. 3.--Officers

"There was. no panic, and the loss Of
life was due to two things, " he said.
" First, the Persia sank in less than six
minutes, and second, most of those
aboard were having luncheon at the
time, and were not thinking Of subma-
rines.
"We were making IS knots when

women in that one. The first boat
launched tried TO pick up those of the

Gun Not An Excuse. ..s
The presence Of a A. inch gun on
the Persia, as reported by Consul Car
rets at Alexandria, together vita the
fact that there were e5 British Officers
en- route to. Egypt aboard was regarded
as of minor importance inasmuch as
the administration recognizes the right
of me ehantmen to carry small guns for
defense. The soldiers among the pas
sengers, it was held, could not give the

able to attack without warning.
Later special train was rushed to
Hot Springs, Va, to bring President
Wilson back to Washington. He may
arrive before tomorrow morning.
The state department expected that
Austria or Germany-which ever own
ed the attacking the submarine-would
anticipate q protest or ultimatum from
America, and hence would voluntarily
disavow the torpeloing Of the Persia.
The situation seemed the more serious
from the fact that the Persia incident,

he asserted, no one knows whether
there was justification. In any event,
he suggested that Austria through her

No Official Information.
In this connection, officials suggest
ed that possibly the contents Of the
Austrian note, and instructions to sub

reached the submarine commander who
sank the Persia, il indeed, it was an
Austrian diver.

at Secretary of State Lansing's office
at noon and spent some time there.

learn news of the Persia and Glengyle
but was told that no official informa'
