WILL NOT TRAIL WILSON.
Bryan Will Stay in Florida Till Late in
February.

Miami, Fla, Jan. 25.-William J..
Bryan yesterday issued a statement say
ing that he had no intention OF follow
ing the wake of President Wilson on
his trip through the middle West max
ing series of speeches in answer to
those of the president on preparedness.
He said he would remain in Miami until
he left for Lincoln. Neb., late in Feb
ruary to attend a birthday dinner.
Mr.. Bryan said he would make few
speeches on his way to Lincoln, but
the trip would have no connection with
that of the president. and his illusions
to preparedness would be along the line
of the addresses he delivered last fall.
The dates for his speeches, Mr.. Bryan
said, were arranged before it was an
nouneed that Mr.. Wilson would make
his speaking tour.

ANOTHER ARMED SHIP COMES.
As Result Austria is Likely to Take UP
Negotiations

/ Washington, ID. G., Jan. 25.--Arriyal
| of the Italian steamship Verona in New
York yesterday with two guns mounted
at her stern. probably will result in the
Austro- Hungarian government taking UP
| automatically with the United States
Iall the broad questions involved in the
arming of merchant ships for defensive
purposes.
1t is indicated that Baron Erich
Zwiedinek, charge Of the Austro- Hun
garian embassy here, would inform his
government promptly of the arrival Of
the Verona if he had not already done
SO and that he would call upon Secre-
tary Lansing in the near future to de-
termine the position of the United
States in regard to permitting the liner
to sail with the guns mounted.
1t was freely predicted in Teutonic
diplomatic circles when the Italian ship
Giuseppe Verdi was allowed to sail re-
Gently from New York with guns mount
ed that communication on the sub
ject was Immediately to follow the ar
rival of another Italian ship similarly
armed.
1t was authoritatively stated last
night that the Austro- Hungarian gov
ernment probably would inform the
United States that any armed ship en-
countered by an Austrian submarine
would be regarded as warship and be
sunk without warning, regardless Of
who might happen to be aboard. The
Giuseppe Verdi was allowed to sail aft
er the Italian government had given as
surance that the guns would not be used
for other than defensive purposes.
The belief prevails in certain official
circles that a communication from the
Austro- Hungarian government would re-
suit in the United States determining
upon definite rules which would be APP
plicable to the changed conditions on
thetseas or would result in the keeping |
of American citizens off the ships that |
are armed.

Defense Began Testi-
mony To-day

st. Johnsbury, Jan. 25.-Much prog
ress was made to-day in the case of
State VS.. Harlow Hatch. charged with
manslaughter in the death of Sumner
Brown at this place last July, after an
attempt had been made by the defense
yesterday afternoon to have the jury
discharged on the ground that they had
not been properly taken care of by dep
uty sheriffs, that they had been allowed
to 90 about in groups, that at least one
OF them had been permitted to 60 alone
to the telephone and that they had been
given liberty to read newspapers con-
tanning accounts of the trial.
When the court reconyened yesterday
afternoon following the recess over Sun
day, the trial was delayed nearly an
hour while Simonds, Searles and Graves,
representing the respondent, were argu
ing for the discharge OF the jury. Judge
Stanton declined to consider the motion.
The state concluded its testimony yes

Stone and G. F. Whitney of the state

Browns body in order to leave powder
marks on the clothing. Or. Whitney

GRANITE CUTTERS

that the treasury department "is dis

on Secretary McAdoo in relation to the
matter.
Granite or marble may be used on
postoffice buildings, says Mr.. Duncan,
only in offices where the income is $780,
600 year, and of the 35 such Offices
those of Boston and Providence are the
only two in New England.
In the past" he concludes, "there
have been hundreds of federal buildings
erected of granite, even in cities of class
c incomes and he asks that the treas
ury department be induced to liberalize
its order.
