 & The negotiation of a protocol cover ing use of Mexican railways and other matters beyond the border encountered delay today with the receipt of Gen eral Carranza's suggestions as to mod ifications and additions to the plan worked out by Counsellor Polk of the state department and EliZeo Arredon- do, ambassador designate Mr.. Are dondo handed the communication to Secretary Lansing, who refused to comment. There are indications, how ever, that the suggestions will require considerable study and possibly fur ther interchanges with General Car ranza
 General Carranza desires to delay reply ing to the request for the use of certain Mexican railroads until the protocol had been agreed to, but the state departm ent will press for prompt disposition of the request as a separate issue. It is real ized that a week or more may pass be- fore the terms of the protocol can be put in final shape and the necessity of having the railroads open to use by Gen eral Pershing is immediate.
 DIPLOMACY TOO SLOW
 The army in Mexico cannot wait for the slow processes of diplomacy. For this reason General Funston will be supplied promptly with enough motor transporta- tion to establish and maintain fully equipped supply system. Additional trucks will be ordered as rapidly as use can be made of them.
 Advance supply depots will be placed at intervals along the communication lines, each being fed by the one immedi- ately in it's rear. As fast as food, horse fodder or ammunition is drawn for use from the most advanced depot 1t will be

 The discovery of number of fragments of metal aboard the Sussex. including a large piece of bronze, by a French naval officer, has been reported by Ambassa- dor Sharp at Paris. The naval officer, according to state department dispatches, says the piece of bronze is part of a torpedo. It is realized that the testl- mony of a French naval officer. would be regarded as biased by the German au- thorities and the department is relying upon an expert examination of the other pieces of metal to establish whether they were parts of a German Schwartzkopf torpedo.
 So far as is known, the state depart ment has not yet heard that any one aboard the ship saw the periscope of a submarine near the Sussex, but state ments to the effect that the wake of a torpedo was seen are understood to have been made.

AWAIT GERMAN STATEMENT

The department allowed it to become known tonight that the regular course of diplomatic procedure would be fol- lowed in the case of the Sussex and the Englishman Much, it was said, prob ably will depend upon the nature of a statement it is expected the German gov ernment shortly will make. If the state ment denies that a German submarine was concerned the burden of proof will rest upon the United States. In such an event, if such evidence at hand war rarted 1t. the first action of the Uni ted States would be 70 ask the Ger man government for an explanation. If, however, the facts were not deemed to be sufficiently conclusive it is quite prob able that the United States would bo forced to accept German disclaimer and allow the case of the Sussex to take it's place with that of the British steamer Persia, destroyed by some mys- terious agent,
 The cause of the sinking of the Per- sa apparently is as much mystery as it was the day after the vessel went down in the Mediterranean with Americans on board In a dispatch re- ceived by the state department today the Turkish government denied that any of Its submarines were concerned in the disaster. Previously Germany and Aus lTld udQ QGIlitu IcSkohoipiAitJ. ~ was intimated at the state department that further investigations were being or had been conducted although their nature was not disclosed A dispatch received by the state department late today offi- cia'ly announced that no American lives had been lost on the Sussex.

cARRANZA'S TROOPS WERE
 SHORT OF AMMUNITION
Fact Ascribed as Reason for Evacua-
 tion of Chihuahua City.

Washington, Dec. 1.-Although no official news of the rout of the Car ranza forces at Chihuahua by the Vil- Ia bandits came to the state or war departments today. or to the Mexican embassy. Elisea Arredondo. the am- baSSador-d designate, after conferences with Secretaries Lansing and Baker expressed the belief that the unofficial reports were true and ascribeds the defeat of the Carran1a forces te a lack, of ammunition and food rather than demoraliZation.
 Soon after MT. Arredondo's visit to them, Secretaries Lansing and Baker separately conferred with President Wilson. No announcement was made, but it was apparent in official circles that there was some apprehension over the situation which might confront this government should Villa advance north, as has been predicted. take Juarez and establish himself as a de facto authority again at the doors of the United States.
 From military standpoint possess sion of Juarez and Chihuahua might lead to possession of Monterey, Sal tllo, Durango and practical military control of the east portion of northern Mexico.
 The most potent element with which Villa has to reckon in any such move, ment is the American punitive expe- dlt1on in Mexico, spread out behind him and finally equipped for any emergency. Officials here have not the slightest fear for the ability of Major General Pershing to protect himself against any force that might be brought against him.. They are more interested in what would be the attitude of the United States govern ment should Villa, for whose capture the expedition was sent into Mexico, get between General Pershing's force and the border line.
 Those here well informed on Me1i- can affairs declare that the shortage of ammunition among the Carranza defenders of Chihuahua is entirely an internal affair with the Carranza gov ernment and is in no wise chargeable to the embargo on munitions from the United States.

Glass of Hot Water
 Before Breakfast
 a Splendid Habit
Open sIuIces of the system each morning and wash away the
 poisonous, staanant matter.

Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise; splitting headache, stuffy from cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, lame back, can, instead, both look and feel as fresh as daisy always by. washing the poisons and toxins from the body with phosphated hot water each morning.
 We should drink, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in 1t to flush from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards Of bowels the previous days indigestib1e waste sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans ing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary tract before putting more food into the stomach.
 The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach IS wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast and it is said to be but a little while until the roses begin to appear in the cheeks. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will cost very little at the drug store, but is sufficient to make anyone who is bothered with bilious ness, constipation, stomach trouble or rheumatism real enthusiast on the subject of internal sanitation. Try 1t and you are assured that you will look better and feel better in every way shortly.

FORTUNES MADE IN EUROPEAN
 oN-BELLIGERENT COUNTRIES
But Pinch of War Prices Are Felt by
 the Middle and Lower Glasses.

Stockholm, Dec. 1.-Fortunes have been made in Sweden, as in the other neutral countries of Europe. as a re- suit of the war. but the pinch of war prices is beginning to make itself keen classes. This has been evidenced this week by the filing of petitions for in creaSeS of pay by representative of the railway, postal, telegraph and tele- phone employees of the kingdom, by the city employees of Stockholm and of other Swedish cities and by the Stock holm school teachers and other bodies. A special food commission in Gothen- burg has decided to recommend to the city council the granting of an appro- priation of 100000 crowns to relieve the distress of the lowest paid classes in the city, and other cities have also been considering the question.
 Dr. Guichard, head of the statistical bureau of Stockholm, reckons that the two years of war have brought an tn- crease of at least go per cent. in the cost of living in Stockholm. in accel- eration of a movement which really set in 12 years ago. Dr. Guichard said to the correspondent:
 '"rhe budget for an ordinary middle class household has exhibited a steady increase for all the necessaries of life since the year 1904. This increase has to OI per CGnL. dI the end of last June. In other words what this family could buy for 670 crowns in 1904 cost 1,119 crowns three months ago, and since then there has been a further ihcrease.''
 House rents in Stockholm increased f5.8 per cent. from 1905 to 1910, 3.3 per cent. from 1911 to 1914, and 15 per cent. in the last two years. Fuel prices, according to figures cited by the Stockholm teachers in their peti- tion, have more than doubled in the last 10 years, a great part of the in crease having come into the war years.
 With so much new wealth in the country, Dr. Guichard and other so- biologists believe the way Is clearly indicated to help the less fortunate. According to Municipal Councillor Dah1berg of Malmo, this years assess ment lists very generally show big increases Of taxable property, running from 40 per cent up to as much as 100 per cent. Gothenuerg, Helsingburg and Malmo all show large increases. The figures for Stockholm are not yet known, but it is believed that they will show an increase of at least 25 to 50 per cent. This, Dr. Guichard points out, would mean an increase in re- ceipts from municipal taxes of some 6,O00,G00 crowns, without raising the tax rate. and would, even making al- lowances for the increased cost of running the city, furnish an adequate fund to relieve all distress.
