How Catarrh Is Contracted

Mothers are sometimes so thought
less as to neglect the colds which
their children contract. The in
flammation of the mucus membrane,
at first acute, becomes chronic and
the child has chronic catarrh. dis
ease that is seldom cured and that
may prove a life's Lurden. Manv
persons who have this loathsome
disease will remember having had
frequent colds at the time it was
contracted. A little forethought. a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy judiciously used and all this
trouble might have been avoided.

From Tie Tnbuns Burau.l
Washington, Jan. IA reaction
from the idenco that The tension
with the Teutonic allies was near
ing an end, which followed the re-
ceipt of the Austrian note yesterday,
swept over Washington to-day with
the news that the British liner Per-
sia had been torpedoed off the island
of Crete. While officials are waiting
for definite information, in the hope
that some excuse for the action Of
the submarine will be found, they
admit that the new outrage calls into
grave question the value of the "con-
cession" which the Austrian note
contained.
The Persia case, 1t is felt, presents
an even sharper contrast between
promise and performance than did
the Arabic case. In the latter Ger
many had just given pledges to abb
stain from illegal acts in her subrna-
rine warfare, and the excuse was
tenable that she had not yet been
able to reach all her submarine COM
manders with the new instructions.
But as Austria declares she has al
ways held her submarines to the OBJ
servance of the rules of civilized
war, such an excuse cannot be Of
fered, and the question Of the sin
cerity Of her dealings with this gov
ernment is made clear-cut.
State Department Will Act.
The certainty that, whatever the
circumstances Of the attack, the
United States will be involved,
added to the tension here tonight.
This government has taken the stand
that it will resent actions which
place Americans in jeopardy,
whether they are injured or not, and
the fact that there were Americans
on board insures action by the State
Department. Only the amount Of the
indemnity that may be demanded
will depend on the question of
whether the Americans were actu-
ally killed.
Apart from the chance that fuller in
formation will show that the liner was
attempting to escape when torpedoed
and that the attack was thus Justi-
fable, the only thing that stands IN the
way Of a renewal OF serious tension
with Austria is poss.o L lack OF legal
proof Of the nationality OF the sub
marine. In neither the Iasaka Ma:u

AUSTRIAN CRAFT
Three Americans and Lord
MOntagu Among the
Passengers.

London, Jan. 1.-The British pas
senger ship Persia, with two or more
Americans on board, has been sunk
in the eastern Mediterranean by
submarine. The full story has not
yet been told, but it is feared that
the disaster, from the standpoint OF
loss Of life among acknowledgement
voyagers, will rank second only 70
the sinking of the Lusitania.
Robert McNeely, of Monroe, n. c..
who was on his way 10 take office
as American Consul at Alden, Ara
bia, and Charles Grant, of Boston,
were on the Persia.
Unofficial figures indicate that
there were about 100 passengers on
board the Persia, a vessel of nearly
5000 tons, and between $50 and 300
members of the crew. Four boats.
eaci capable of carrying sixty per
sons, got away, and their occupants
were picked up by steamer bound
for Alexandria.
It has not been established how
many were able to disembark on the
small boats, but Robert p. Skinner,
American Consul General here, in
message to Washington, based pre-.
sumabIy on the British Admiraity's
report, says that nearly all on board
the Persia periJhed.
The British steamship Abelia, Of
1850 tons, also has been sunk, prob
ably in the Eastern Mediterranean.
Few Saved, Lloyd's Report.
A Lloyd's dispatch says that most
of the passengers and crew Of the
Persia were lost. The vessel went
down at l o'clock Thursday after
noon, this message said.
Although the nationality Of the
submarine which sank the Persia
has not been established, II is gener-
ally assumed TO have been Austrian,
since official German announcement
was made recently that no German
or Turkish submarines were opcr-
ating in the Mediterranean.
Officials Of the Peninsular and Orien-
tai Line say that they have received no
details concerning the sinking OF the
Persia and 90 rot know whether she
received warning.
The NAMES OF the passengers saved
have not yet been received They Will
