Mission Is Important.

Washington Nov. S.-With the ar
rival Of the American delegation to the
war conference 9. az P-'tieh port" the
ban is lifted and we may now talk and
write about this gathering that is
fraught with greater Importance to this
country than any congress In which 1t
has participated.
Henceforth the United States will
have voice in determining the ac-
tual strategy Of the war. It's officers
will be party to the determination OF
where the enemy Is to be attacked.
where supplies are to go, what course
is to be pursued with neutrals-in
short every phase Of the war will,
from this time on, concern US, and
we will share the responsibility.
From this point to a single COM
mand OF all the war forces Of the
allied nations is only a step.
War Only, Says Lansing.
Z Secretary of State Lansing, in maxi
ing the announcement, emphasized
that it Is war conference. with
"war" underlined. but it is going to
take mighty skillful sailing to keep
out of the maelstrom Of the European
politics when the war conference be-
comes a peace conference.
When that time comes 1t is going
to be difficult for the United States
to withdraw from It's war intimacies.
Nobody can tell Just where this de-
parture from our historic policies will
lead but 1t is certain that never again
will the United States enjoy It's isola-
ton from world worries. This struggle
may be the last war; that Is the
trend Of modern statesmanship. with
the lesson before it Of the straits to
which one nations ambitions have
brought humanity, but whether per-
petual peace or the indefinite continu-
alton Of strife lies before us, our coun-
try will be in 1t.

Days War Summary
Indicates Speedy Aid
For Fatjgusd Italians

Across tho Venetian plans the Ital-
ians continue to retire to new de-
fense line, where stand will
be made to stop an Austro- German
advance upon Venice. The morale
Of the Italian armies is improving
and British and French troops are
speeding to northern Italy to tho
aid Of General Cadorna's harrassed
soldiers, who have now given up
more than 2,10o square miles of
Italian territory.
The invaders, Berlin announces,
have reached the Livenza river, be-
tween the Tagliamento and the
Piave. General cadorna has indi-
Gated that the Italians might mako
stand on the Livenxa line, but Il
is not improbable that the Piave
will form the main part Of the po-
sition from which the allied troops
will make supreme effort to check
and drive back the Austro- Germans.
In the capture of the important
position Of Passchendaele, north
east Of Yprss, on Tuesday, the
British took 400 prisoners. Crown
Prince Rupprecht, Of Bavaria, did
not attempt counter attacks yes
terday, giving the Canadians time
to strengthen new positions by far
the most valuable yet taken in tho
Flanders advance.

American Fre;ghter
Battles With and
Sinks Enemy U-Boat

An Atlantic Port, Nov S.-Informa-
tion that an American shell fired by an
American naval gunner sank a Teu-
tonic submarine in the Mediterranean
is contained in a report made to the
navy department by the officers Of an
American freight steamship which ar
rived here recently, it was learned
here today.
The vessel, OF about 5000 tons gross,
was returning from an Italian port in
ballast after taking cargo Of war
munitions from America sto Italy. A
report Of her narrow escape from a
torpedo was recently made public. but
the fate Of her attacker was not men
toned. The torpedo was discovered
approaching from the starboard side
an hour before nightfall and the crew,
expecting an explosion, hurried to the
port rail, arriving in time to see the
torpedo emerge from under the ship
and pass harmlessly on.
The naval gunners had remained at
their posts. The periscope of a sub
marine appeared above the water, the
U-boat captain apparently being un-
aware that the torpedo had gone under
the freighter because with no cargo
she was riding high in the water.
Three American shells fred from the
ships bow gun and two from her stern
gun, missed the submarine, but the
sixth shot from the stern gun struck
1t at the base Of the periscope, accord
Ing to the officers report. There was
an explosion which shattered the sub
mersible's she'll and she sank with all
on board

THREATENS CIVIL WAR.
Collapse Of kerensky Government Sig

Collapse Of kerensky Government Sia-
nal For Armed Struggle.
Washington, Nov. S.--Kerenskys fall
and the collapse nj his government
IN PetrUgrad Into the hands OF the
Maximalists, who propose separate
peace, with Germany, is regarded here
as threatening Russia with the civil
war which all her friends hoped to see
avoided.
The state department, without Off
cial advices Of it's own, was silent,
wishing to avoid making any state
ments until the situation could be ac-
curately assessed on the basis of inti-
mate reports from Ambassador Fran
els at Petrograd.
The Russian embassy too preferred
not to make a statement until later
and when there had been opportunity
for communication with Ambassador
Bakameteff, who was travelling in the
south.
The embassies Of the entente allies
realizing that the developments mean
first of all, probably, a Encouragement
Of their war plans, were shocked but
not disheartened at what is considered
triumph Of insidious German propa-
eanda
kerensky No Gutter. I
The general opinion here among
those in position to be best informed
Of Russian affairs is that Kerensky
and his followers will at once set up a
new government at Moscow, leaving
Petrograd to the Maximalists and those
troops who adhered to them.
An armed clash is counted among the
first probabilities, but it Is, said here
that the greater part Of the army is
expected to remain loyal to the Keren-
sky government. Whether the new gov
ernment will go the way Of the Korni-
loft rebellion no one here ventures to
predict: the realization being that 1t is
infinitely more serious.
The outcome and Russia's part in the
next years Of the war. while she re-
covers her fighting power. no one here
assumes to contemplate at this time.
The war council Of the co-belliger-
ents, just about to assemble in Europe
to arrange policies OF coordination Of
fighting forces, Is now faced with Z
new and great problem at its very out.
