NEW FISH LAW
IS NOW EFFECTIVE
INSPECTOR OWENS GETS CON-
MISSION AND is READY TO
BEGIN THE WORK.

X e. Owens, recently appointed
inspector under the new fish and oys-
ter law, yesterday received from Com
missioner Arrow his commission, to-
gether with license blanks, certifi-
Gates, copies of the new law, etc. and
the inspector will assume the duties of
his new office tomorrow. In fact he
started to work yesterday.
For the next few days Inspector
Owens will be busy issuing licenses to
oyster boats, as it is now unlawful
for any boat to catch oysters for sale
without first securing a license.
There is a scale of prices charged for
an oyster license. For the little fish
erman using a batteau or other boat
not propelled, a license of SO per
year is charged; for small pop boat
under five tons a license of S. per
year is charged, and for the larger
boats, over five tons, dollar extra
per ton is charged.
AS soon as possible the inspector
will make his first trip, and all boats
seen in the oyster business will be in.
spected, and if they are not armed
with license then arrests will follow.
Before doing this, however, the in
spector will give everybody an op-
portunity to secure a license.
There are many other features to
the new law; closed season is pro
vided for the catching of prawn, etc.
catching oysters on the private beds
of the state is also prohibited during
certain seasons.
Inspector Owens is desirous of
leasing boat to be used in the bust,

RELATIONS BETWEEN UNI
TED STATES AND TEU-
TONS ARE THROWN INTO
NEW DANGER BY THE
SINKING.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-Destruc-
ton of the British liner Persia, with
possible loss of American lines, throws
relations between the United States
and the Teutonic powers into a new
danger.
Coming almost at the hour when a
satisfactory adjustment of the deli
cate situation was at hand by Aus
trias acceptance of the cardinal
points of the American demands in
the Ancona case, this new element
threatens to complicate affairs with
Austria as thoroughly as the destruc-
ton of the Arabic, following so close
ly the Lusitania exchanges, brought
on renewed crisis with Germany.
From such incomplete information
as was at hand today the two Situa-
tions are regarded as almost parallel.
It was generally presumed in official
circles that as was the case III the
crisis with Germany the Austrian ad-
miralty and the Vienna foreign office
are working at cross purposes. 1t is
regarded as a strong possibility that
while the foreign office is ready to ac-
cede to the contentious of the United
Sta,~5 the admiralty, bent on the Sue
cess of it's submarine policy has net
yet been brought into line.

There is, however, the added posi-
bility that the submarine which sunk

not been instructed in the new policy

A GREETING SENT
BY The KAISER
A GLORIOUS VICTORY HAS eEEu
GAINED EVERYWHERE
HE SAYS.

LONDON, Jan 1.-The Amster-
dam correspondent of Reuters Tele-
graph Company says that Emperor
William, according to dispatch from
London, has sent the following New
Years address to the army, the navy
and the colonial troops:
Comrades Another years of Sc
we're fighting has elapsed. Wherever
a superior number of enemies have
stormed our lines they have failed
before your loyalty and bravery.
Wherever ! have sent you into bat
tie you have gained glorious vic
tory. Thankfully we remember to-
day, above all, our brethren who joy
fully gave their blood in order to
gain security for our beloved at home
and imperishable glory for the faith
erland. What they have begun we
shall accomplish with Gods gracious
help
ain impotent madness enemies
from the west and east, from the
north and south, still seek to deprive
us of all that makes life worth living
for
"They long ago buried the hope TO
conquer us in honest fighting. On
the weight of their masses, on the
starvation of our entire people, on
the influence of their campaign of
| tculmination which IS as mischiev-
Gus as it is malicious. Their plans
they can still reckon. Their plans
will not succeed. Before the spirit
of determination, which imperturb-
ably unites the army and those at
home, their hopes will be miserably
disappointed. With will TO dis
charge the duty to the fatherland to
the last breath and determination to
secure victory. we enter the new year
with God for the protection Of the
! fatherland and for Germany's great
success"

ALL PAPERS DISCUSS IT
Daily News Says it is Wholly
Different From Evasion of the
First Note - Shows Cold

LONDON, Jan. 1.-The London
papers are not in possession of the
full text of the latest note from Aus.
tria Hungary to the United States re
garding the sinking Of the steamer
Ancona. but all publish the summary
received yesterday with headlines in
which the, words evasion" and rep
arationSare the most prominent.
TheF Daily News, in an editorial
remarks on the difference in the tone
of this note from the "evasion and
ill-concealed insolence" of the first
note from Baron Burian, Austro
Hungarian secretary of foreign af
fairs. and adds:
Stripped of superfluous verbiagr
the note signifies to all intents and
purposes an unconditional capitula
ton. The approved Teutonic pro
cedure of bravado followed by a re-
served surrender-is thus scrupulous
ly followed"
The News thinks ii Is needless tC
comment in detail in view of the
probable acceptance by the United
States of the explanation, but says il
is idle to pretend that the genera
question at issue is now set at res.
since torpedoings without notice still
continues
The other papers in remarks at
tached to the note indicate their irri
fation at what they characterize as
the unsracious character of the Aus
trian surrender. The Chronicle says
Even Austria's own version of the
outrage shows the old-bloodedness
with which the wholesale murder was
committed"
The Morning Post says that the
despisable allegations are made in
the note that the loss of life was
due to the culpability of the crew"

The general view in official quarters

dispatch, with unofficial reports of the
disaster, was forwarded to President
Wilson at Hot Springs. The President
will have Austria's satisfactory reply
, in the Ancona case and the news OF
/ the latest submarine disaster before
him at the same time.
AS in similar cases, the policy of the
American government will be to await
full and complete information before
moving. There is little room to doubt
that the incident will mean new dip

as one of the eventualities.

AGAINST LAW To
WATER OYSTERS
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
is PLANNING TO PROSECUTE
THOSE WHO PRACTICE 1T.

Hard luck for the oyster dealers, or
rather for those who have for many
years practiced watering" their
opsters. OF course this is not done by
all of the dealers, or even a majority
of them, but there aie many who
have done it and are doing it now
In announcing that this law is to be
enforced, the following sent out under
la Washington date line will be of in
terest:
Prosecution Of oyster dealers
found guilty Of the practice of add
ing fresh water to shucked oysters so
Ias to greatly increase their size in
violation of the food and drugs act
will be recommended by the depart.
ment of agriculture.
This was announced today by the
department, which said that consid-
cradle evidence is being collected by
its inspectors regarding the traffic
in water-soaked oysters. AS soon as
completed the evidence will be turned
over to the department of justice
with a view to prosecution, it was
added
The addition of water to oysters
lowers their food value, in the de.
partment's opinion, which holds that
such oysters are adulterated within
the meaning of the food and drugs
act.
