SIMON RESIGNS HIS
POST IN MINISTRY

London. Jan 3.-The possibility OF
cabinet crisis still is present. but
tor the moment there is a lull No
further cabinet meeting will be held
for several days
The only resignation reported as yet
is that of Sir John A. Simon, home
secretary. who strongly objects to
compulsion Reginald Mckenna.
chancellor of the exchequer. and Wal
ter NIunciman, president OF the board
Of trade, object to the bill on the
ground of the financial strain of a
big army and because it will drain
the country of men required to main
tain industrial supremacy.
As the Earl OF Derby's enlistment
scheme was never applied to Ireland.
that country takes 1t for granted that
it is excluded from the operation OF
the new bill, the passage of which
through the house OF commons is al
most a foregone conclusion.

KAISER'S GREETINGS
TO HIS FIGHTERS

Berlin. Jan. 3.-Kaiser Wilhelm sent
the following New Years greeting to
the men of the German army and navy
and the colonials.
"Comrades-One year OF severe
fighting has elapsed. Wherever su-
perior enemies have taed to rush our
lines they have failed before your
loyalty and bravery Everywhere |
sent YOU into battle YOU were glorious
ly victorious
Thankfully we remember above all
the brethren who ioyfuhy shed their
blood to gain security for their below

which were given by Germany
The full American official view will

Wilson has studied the Austrian re

House messenger
Austria in the Ancona case has sub

NEW YEAR SEES NO
SIGNS OF PEACE

London, Jan. 3.--The new year finds
the European bellgerents too busily
occupied with matters of pressing i'm
portance to pause long enough to do
any extensive mental stocktaking re-
garding the war situation.
To most of the fighting nations the
war probably seemed rather nearer
it's end year ago than now.
On the fghting fronts the old year
ended with promise of interesting
developments in many theaters.
Greece again has lodged protests
against entente acts in her territory
against the occupation of Castelorizo
islands in Asia Minor and against the
arrest of the consuls of the central
powers at Saloniki
Russia remains silent regarding
events in Bessarabia. but from Aus
trian and neutral sources come mes.
sages that since Christmas eve the
fighting has continued without inter
ruption.
