May Cause Hitch.
TBy Associated Press !


Washington. Jan. New dangers
OF the relations between the United
States and the Teutonie countries are
seen here In the destruction OF the
British liner Persia. with the possible
loss Of American lives. The disaster
is mostly considered OF Austro.Hun.
garian origin and presents a problem
In view OF the recent Ancona CORE
spondence which has just been settled
By accession to the American demands
II is believed here that the Vienna
government and the Austro-Hungariau
admiralty are working at cross pur.
poses and that while Vienna has been
brought around to the American view.
the admiralty has not yet teen drawn
into line. A similar status is recalled
in the correspondence with Germany
following the Lusitlana disaster.
There Is a possibility that the sub
marine which sank the Persia was far
from home and had not heard o. the
new policy being recognized.
All the agencies OF the American
government have been set in motion
to gather facts and the government
will wait complete Information before
taking action.
