A 100000 FIRE

Muscatine, H., Jan. ia fire
which for time threatened the retail
district of the city early today COM
pletely destroyed the B. E. Lilly dry
goods store, entailing a loss estimat
ed at 100000. An explosion which
carried flames from the basement to
the roof, doomed the establishment
with the outbreak of the fire.
- The6ntire rear part of the structure
was a mass of flames when the de-
partment responded and entrance to
the building was impossible for three
hours.
The loss is the most severe to be
sustained in the business district of
this city in many years. The Choco-
late Shop, the finest confectionery
store in eastern Iowa, was badly dam
aged by the food of water which pour
ed into the building

SEES COMING OF
ACTUAL

London, Jan. 15.-That Great Britain
will soon announce the establishment
of an actual blockade of Germany and
her allies, thereby superseding the
condition which had been established
by the orders in councils, was state
ment made today by Americans who
have been acting here as representa-
tives of American shippers whose bus
mess had been affected by the orders.
A person who has acted as a repre-
sentative of American interests in
connection with British prize court
proceedings, reviewed today for the
Associated Press the evolution Of the
orders in council.
1.-THE British government shows an
unmistakable tendency now to shift
around to the persistently expressed
American contention that the interna-
tional law which prevailed before the
present war must ultimately govern
Great Britain's assertion of her sea
power" he said.

Washington, Jan. 15.-General Car
ranza's formal reply to representa-
tons from the United States demand
ing that he run down and punish the
murderers of American citizens at
Santa Ysabel, Mexico, still was await
ed today, although indirect assur-
ances had come from him that this

Despite renewed demands in con-
gress for Intervention in Mexico, there
was no indication of a change in the
administration policy to give Car
rama and the de facto government Of
Mexico a free hand in running down
the aSsaSsinS.

their efforts to have Americans in
Mexico moved from districts where
they might be in danger.
On the request of Senator Stone,
chairman of the foreign relations COM
mittee, Secretary Lansing agreed to-
dav to keep the senate constantly in
formed regarding Mexican develop
ments and also to hasten preparation
of information regarding the Carranza
government in answer to Senator
Falls resolution.

New York, Jan. 15-An explosion
aboard the submarine E-2 in dry dock
at the New York navy yard caused the
death today of at least three mem
bers Of the crew and injured a num-
Der OF others, variously reported as

ed. The deck of the submarine was
entirely blown out, it was reported.

enter the submarine at the head of a
rescue party were driven back by the

THE WAR TODAY

The eastern field of war again
resumes prominence with the re-
sumption of the offensive by the
Russians in Bessarabia. Vienna
reports that the Austrian lines
have been subjected again to de-
termined attacks, but that the Rus
sian attempts to break through
were repulsed.
Austria claims that since the in
auguratiOn OF the winter opera
tons in eastern Galicia and Bes.
sarabia more than 5000 Russians.
including 80 officers, have been
taken prisoner. The Russians
claim notable gains north of Ger
nowitZ. The Austrians refuse to
concede Russian claims and de-
clare their lines have held firm
at all stages.
The Austrians announce further
advances in Montenegro. The
MOntenegrins are in retreat and
are suffering losses in men and
guns, according to Vienna.
Germany, in replying to Great
Britain in the BaralOng case. reit-
crates the charges made against
the British auxiliary cruisers Off
GERS, accused in affidavits of
Americans on the steamer NicOsian
of having refused quarter to men,
bers of n German submarines
crew.
The German government de-
clares unacceptable the British
offer to submit the BaralOng case
TO tribunal of American naval
officers Ii Germany would submit
three specified cases of alleged
Outrages committed by Germans
on the seas TO the same court.
Germany declares that In none
of the cases mentioned were Ger
man officers trying to destroy
helpless persons.
In view of the British refusal to
bring the accused officers of the
BaralOng 10 trial. Germany will
adopt measures of reprisal cOrre-
spending with the prOv0cati0n.

RUSSIANS ARE ON
new OFFENSIVE

Berlin, Jan. 15.-The Russian often
sive has been renewed on the Bess-
arabian front and five important at
tacks have been repulsed by the Aus
tro-Hungarian forces, according to
the Austrian official report, dated Jan.
IA and received today.
The Austrian official statement fol-
lows: --....,...-
''On the Bessarabian front the Rus
slams have again attempted to break
through near Toporoutz and east Of
Rarinczle. Five great attacks failed.
The well-directed AustrO-Hungaria
artillery fire contributed to the re-
pulse of the Russians. Since the be-
ginning of the battle in East Galicia
and Bessarabia the Austro-Hungarian
forces Of Generals PfanZer, Baltin and
Bothmer have taken 800 Russians,
including 80 officers. Austro-Hungar-
ian patrols routed Russian field guards
near karpilovka.
"On the Italian front several places
were shelled by Italian artillery. Ital-
ian airmen have been active in the
Triest district One bomb was drop
ped in Spirano, but caused no dam
age
In Montenegro the troops of that
country, having abandoned their cap
ital, are in retreat on the whole south
and west fronts. The AustroHungar-
ian troops, who are following up the
enemy, have entered Montenegrin ter
ritory east of Bileoa and near Avtovac
and passed the line Of Budua, Cettinje,
Grab and Grahovo. Near Grah0vo our
troops captured three cannon with
their gunners, as well as 500 rifles,
| one machine gun, and ammunition"

While Interest Is Manifested
by Officials Dispatches
Not Fully Believed.
COUNT DISBELlEVES IT
News of Notes With Plot
Connections Regarded
) Specifically.

Washington, Jan. 15.-Press dis
patches from London telling of the
seizure Of correspondence from Cap
tain Franz Won Papen, recalled Ger
man military attache to the United
States, when he reached Falmouth,
England, and relating that it showed
that he had made frequent payments
to persons charged with responsibility
for blowing up American plants and
bridges in the United States, aroused
the deepest interest in official and
diplomatic circles here today.
The development came as a sequel to
the withdrawal of Captain Won Papen
and his colleague, Captain Boy-ed, the
German naval attache, at the request
OF the Washington government.
Doesn't Believe 1t.
Il don't believe it," was the only
comment Count Won Bernstorff, the
German ambassador would make con-
corning the dispatches. In German
diplomatic quarters the impression
was conveyed that it was thought pos
sible Captain Won Papen had been con-
nected with the published documents
of British agents. 1t was argued as
incredible that Won Papen with the
knowledge that his ship would be TAX
en- into British port to be searched,
would have carried any such cores
pondence as mentioned in the dis
patches, even if he possessed it.
Only Salary Paid.
, At the German embassy it was said
that the ambassador had paid consid-
cradle money to Won Papen as salary
and for the expense of such work as he
was expected to conduct as military
attache. Embassy officials had no
knowledge of his private bank account
or of how he disbursed the money.
Administration officials declined to
comment on the dispatches pending the
receipt of copies Of the correspond
ence, which has been turned over to
the American embassy in London for
transmission to the state department.
Not Regarded Material.
1t was made clear at the German
embassy today that Captain Won Papen
was in no way responsible to Count
Won Bernstorff for his expenditures. It
was freely admitted that the with
drawn military attache had been given
money, some times because Of his ina
bility to draw funds for himself from
Berlin. He was not responsible to
the embassy for his expenditures.
Embassy officials seemed inclined to
regard the matter as not being serious.
They consider that as Won Papen was
withdrawn for his military activities,
the question is at an end and the pub
! LEGATION of evidence which might or
might not show what those activities
consisted of is of little importance.
AS for the alleged payment Of $500
to Wiener Horn, it was said at the en-
bassy that the money might have been
spent in counsel fees. Embassy Of
| ficials were much interested in the
! question of whether the check stub
was dated before or after the explos-
ion which blew up the Canadian Pa
cific railway bridge at ST. Croix, Maine.
Secretary Lansing allowed it to be-
come known today that the state de-
partment would not consider the con-
tents of the documents until official
copies had been received from Ambas-
sador Page 1t London
