HOCKEY IS FAvoRITE SPORT
Gaining Rapidly In Favor Throughout
Country Where Ice Is Available
for the Came.

Riding on the crest of the present
skating boom, hockey appears des-
tined to become the premier winter
sport throughout the country where
either natural or artificial ice is avail
able for the game. The installation Of
artificial Kinks in the leading eastern
and southern cities has greatly In
creased interest in the game In these
sections. while In the North and
Northwest. where temperature can be
counted upon to provide ice several
months each year. hockey is more
j opular than ever before.
This is due in part to the promi.

EXPECTED
TO MAKE APOLOGY
UNITED STATES ASKS REPARA.
TIoN FOR ATTACK ON AMERI-
CAN STEAMER PETRoLlTE.
Will Demand an Apology for the AZ
tack, Punishment. of the Submarine
Commander, and Reparatlon for
the Damage Done.

Washington.-The United States Is
preparing to make formal demands
upon Austria Hungary as a result Of
the attack by an Austrian submarine
upon the American tank steamer Pc,
trolite. A note on the subject will be
dispatched within few days.
1t was authoritatively stated Satur
day night that the United States would
stand by its original contention and
ask an apology for the attack, punish
ment of the submarine commander,
and reparation for the damage done
to the vessel and injuries inflicted on
member of the crew who was hit by
piece Of shell.
In reply to the first American com
munication on the subject, Austria in
formed the state department that its
version Of the affair was that the sub
marine commander thought the Petroi
lite an enemy ship disguised with the
American flag; that he fired on the
vessel because he believed 1t was
about to ram his ship, and that the
commander Of the Petrolite voluntar.
lily furnished provisions when asked to
do so.
The state department since has Sc.
cured information from the captain
and crew of the Petrolite directly con.
Trajectory to the Austrian version.
They have declared in affidavits that
the Petrolite was stopped in the Med.
iterranean by an Austrian submarine
which fired a number of shells at her;
that the submarine commander asked
for food. which the commander of the
Petrolite refused to give him, and that
the commander of the submarine then
held one of the members Of the tank
er's crew as hostage while his men
went aboard the ship and took such
stores as they desired.

were captured.
Considerable fighting between the
Russians and the Germans has taken
place in northwest Russia, the Rus

trenches in the Riga sector and dis
persing scouting parties in the vicin-

Owing to the heavy rains and
avalanches fighting has almost ceased

Colonel House is believed to have

Washington.-By vote of 6S to IA
the senate ON Friday carried out Pres

In turbulent scene, such as is sell

making hot retorts to each other, all
Of which were out of order. At one

for the vice-president's recognition
that the sergeant-at-arms was called
to restore quiet.
After having Unanswered for two
days to get the resolution in such par

then proceeded to general discussion
of the subject which continued all af-
ternoon, to the dismay of administra-

There were free expressions Of opin-

was the toll of an explosion and fire
late Monday at the city jail. The
name of one American is included in
the list of dead, and twelve are num-
bered among those seriously burned.
A flash OF flames burst from tanks
containing gasoline and kerosene
solution in which prisoners, including
many Mexicans, were being given dis
injecting baths in the campaign to
prevent the spread of disease from
Mexico. A match, lighted by one of
the "bathers" in disregard Of orders,
was said by officials to have caused
the explosion and fire.
H. c. Bagby, one of the TRUSTEES"
on guard at the time, made a state
ment to Mayor Tom Lea Monday
night, in which he declared that a
lighted match had been thrown into
the contairer by H. M. Cross, an Am
erican prisoner who died Of his in
Iuries.
Surrounding the bath quarters are
rows OF cells, mostly Allied with pris-
Dners. Those adjacent to the bath
were caught in the flames. Release
from these cells was slow and danger
ous and it was in these that most OF
he fatalities occurred. Volunteer
rescuers aided in dragging out the
victims, many unconscious and badly
burned
On fire from head to foot, the nude
victims dashed into the streets anc
alleys surrounding the prison. Several
maddened by the pain, outdistancet
all pursuers, and disappeared. Only
one Of these had been found severa
hours after the disaster.
One Of the victims, a veritabl'
torch, plunged through the jagged re
mains Of window pane and clam
bered to the roof Of the Jail, where HI
was rescued by firemen. only to di'
