CRUISER ASHORE;
CREW RESCUED
The Milwaukee in Sand on
California Coast.
LIKELY TO BE A TOTAL LOSS
Naval Officers Say It Is Hardly Pos
sibIe That the 100000 YES
sci Will Ever Float
Again.

Eureka, Calm fight for their
lives against heavy sea, more than
400 United States sailors were brought
ashore in a breeches buoy from the
cruiser Milwaukee, which rolled and
tossed in the surf, with the possibility
of being a total loss, on the Northern
California coast, where she struck
shore in fog. Not life was lost
and but one man was hurt in the
rescue.
Breakers were spraying over the
warship's superstructure and the IN
cessant pounding of the waves was
driving the vessel further ashore in
the sand. The Milwaukee's false bot
tom was flooded in an effort to anchor
her against the wash Of the sea. Naval
officers ashore said it was hardly pos
sible that the $4,OOO,0O0 cruiser would
ever float again.
The Milwaukee is stuck on the
sand only a few hundred yards from
the submarine H-3, which grounded a
month ago near the entrance to Hum
boldt Bay. The cruiser was attempt
ing to salvage the submersible at the
time Of the accident. Within 40 or SO
miles on this part of the coast six
other vessels have struck shore during
the last few years and none OF them
rave been saved.
Four breeches buoys were swung tc
the Milwaukee and the men were
brought ashore as fast as possible.
The lines had been attached to the
ships masts. With the roll OF the
vessel the trolleys would slacken and
then straighten out, dropping the
buoys, with their human burden, into
the breakers and alternately hoisting
them into the air.
The Milwaukee was under command
of Lieut.. w. F. Newton. She carried
about 13 commissioned officers, 10 war
rant officers and a reduced compile
ment of between 400 and 500 men.
Seventy of the crew were ashore when
the Milwaukee struck.

TEXT OF ENTENTE ALLIES
REPLY.

Washington. The following Is a
translation of the reply Of the Entente
Allies to President Wilson's recent
note to the belligerent nations, in
which the President suggested that
they state the objects for which they
we're fighting:
The Allied Governments have re-
eeiyed the note which was delivered
10 them in the name of the Govern
ment of the United States on the nine
tsenth of December. 1915. They have
studied it with the care imposed upon
them both by the exact realization
which they have of the gravity of the
hour and by the sincere friendship
which attaches them to the American
people.
In general way they wish to declare
that they pay tribute to the elevation
Of the sentiment with which the
American note is inspired and that
they associate themselves with all
their hopes with the project for the
creation of league Of nations to in
sure peace and Justice throughout the
world. They recognize all the ad.
vantages for the cause Of humanity
and civilization which the institution
OF International agreements destined
TO avoid violent conflicts between
nations would prevent; agreements
which must imply the sanctions neces-
sary to insure their execution and thus
70 prevent an apparent security from
only facilitating new aggressions. But
a discussion Of future arrangements
destined to insrre an enduring peace
presupposes a satisfactory settlement
Of the actual conflict; the Allies have
rs profound a desire as the Govern
ment OF the United States to terminate
as soon as possible war for which
the Central Empires are responsible
and which inhicts such cruel suffer
1ngs upon humanity. But they believe
that it is impossible at the present
moment to attain a peace which will
assure them reparation, restitution and
such guarantees to which they are en-
titled by the aggression for which the
responsibility rests with the Central
Powers and of which the principle it.
SELF tended to ruin the security Of Eu-
rope: a peace which would on the
other hand permit the establishment
OF the future of European nations on a
solid basis. The Allied nations are
conscious that they are not fighting

Washington.-The Entente reply to
President Wilson's peace note is re-
garded in all quarters here as putting
an early peace practically out Of the
question. but still leaving an open door
for the President to make further ef-
forts.
German diplomats regard the reply
- even more severe than they ex-
pected. They declared 1t evidence that
ahe enemies of Germany are waging a
war of conquest to crush and dismem-
Der her. The Germanic allies, they de-
clared, never would agree to any such
terms.

THREAT OF PROSECUTION
6ernstorff, McAcoo and Warburg
Named Woman Quoted AZ
Saying Tumuity "Re-
ceived His Bit"

Washington.-Thom w. Lawson.
hailed before the House Rules Commit
tee to tell what he knew or had heard
about stock market leak on Presi-
dent Wilson's peace note or be pun
ished, calmly. declared Monday that
the mysterious Congressman who told
him Cabinet officer, a Senator and
banker were engaged in stock gau1b-
ling pool was none other than Repre-
sentative Henry, chairman of the COM
mittee.
Then, before his hearers had time
to recover from the shock, Lawson
sprung one sensation after the other
by declaring that the Cabinet officer
referred to was Secretary McAdoo;
that the banker was H. Pliny Fisk, of
New York, and that he knew the Sen
ator only by the initial "O."
More Subpoenas Issued.
To complete the explosion, Lawson
went on to charge that Paul M. War
burg, of the Federal Reserve Board,
had knowledge Of the leak machinery;
repeated rumor that Count Won
Bernstorff, the German Ambassador,
had made s2,000,000 in the stock mar
ket, and mentioned list Of we'll
known men who, he thought, should
be questioned. The committee prompt
ly issued subpoenas for all of them.
Mr.. Lawson said he had been told
that Malcolm McAdoo, the Secretary's
brother, knew of the leak, as did c.
D. Barney & Co. and Stuart G. Glib
honey, of New York. A Mrs. Ruth
Thomson Visconti, of this city, he
said, had declared to him in the pres
ence of her attorney that Secretary
Tumulty received his bit" and that
W. w. Price, one of the White House
correspondents, was 'the go-between"
for Tumulty, and others. H. Pliney
Fisk, Lawson said, was the banker he
referred to previously as dominating
a Cabinet officer, and Archibald S.
White, he said, had given him this in
formation.
Henry Enters Denial.
Representative Henry was said by
Lawson to have told him at the con-
ference that preceded the opening OF
the leak investigation of reports con-
Meeting the Cabinet officer, banker and
Senator, and also had told him Of re-
ports that Secretary Lansing had been
seen conferring with Bernard Baruch,
the Wall street operator, said to have
made cleanup on the falling market
which accompanied the peace note.
Lawson declared Hen"y had asked
him on patriotic grounds not to press
his charges. At no time, the Boston
fnancier testified. did he ever say he
had direct information.
When Lawson had finished his re-
cital, Chairman Henry took the stand
and swore that at no time had he men,
toned to Lawson the names the
financier brought out on the witness
stand; that he had no information
then and had none now Of his own
knowledge; and denied generally and
completely all of Lawson's testimony
relating to him.
