UGLY CHARGE IN
LEAK" INQUIRY
Whipple Says Connolly Testified Falsely
and Hutton Must Have Known
That He Did So.

New York, Feb l5.-The resumption
in this city yesterday by the House rules
committee of the peace note leak inquiry
was marked by serious reflections on Z.
II. Hutton--whose firm received and sent
to its customers wire foreshadowing
clearly the presidents note-and on f. A.
Connolly, the Hutton correspondent in
Washington.
Connolly was accused by Sherman L.
Whipple, counsel to the committee, of
testifying falsely when he said he sent
the wire of warning to Hutton & Co.,
and Hutton was accused of knowing Con.
molly testified falsely and of failing to
make this fact known to the committee
1t was insinuated moreover, that Mr.
Hutton left the city for the South Tues
day in order to escape further grilling on
the witness stand here.
An effort was made by member of
the committee to show that Thomas w.
Lawson is mentally Irresponsible.
Mr.. Whipple said the existence of
leak" had been established by the in
vestigation in Washington, and that it
was in order now to find who profted.
The time within which the investiga-
tors must report back to the House has
been extended until Feb. 81.

FOUR YEARS
MORE>OF DANIELS
"As Proud as Peacock" Is Secretary of
Navy Because Asked to
Stay in Cabinet.

Washington, D. c., Feb. l5.--"As proud
as a peacock" is the state of mind of the
Hon. Josephus Daniels, the secretary of
the navy. He has received from the
White House letter from the president,
inviting him to continue in the esbinet
for four years more. The enthusiasm of
Mr.. Daniels over what he halls az an
absolute endorsement of his whole course
as secretary of the navy so overlooked
that he could not resist showing the let
ter all around. That he will accept the
invitation goes without saying, and it Is
expected that, fortified by this
expression of the presidents
confidence, he will revive many of his
grotesque schemes for naval development
that Danielized his service in the first
years of his administration. Public crit
icism of his department in the last year
checked him in many directions, but now
that the country is rallying round the
government on the verge of war, Mr..
Daniels with his new commission is
upon coast "clear of criti-
eism"

Wonder what upset your stomach
which portion of the food did the dam
age--do you? Well, don't bother. If
your stomach is in revolt; if sick,
gassy and upset, and what you just ate

foul, tongue coated--iust take a little
Papes Diapepsin to help neutralize acid
ity and in five minutes you wonder what
became of the Indigestion and distress.
Millions of men and women to-day
know that it is needless to have dys-
pepsa. A little Diapepsin occasionally
keeps the stomach sweetened and they
eat their fayorite foods without fear.
If your stomach doesn't take care of
your liberal limit without rebellion; il
your food is a damage instead of help,
the quickest, surest, most
harmless relief is Pape's Diapepsin, which
costs only 30 cents for a large case at drug

new japanese educational requirements.
The essential provision of the new ordi-
nance is the discontinuanee of religious
teaching or ceremonies as a part of the
school curriculum. The ordinance stip-
ulated that the private schools should
conform within ten years.
The step taken by the mission marks
the beginning of new epoch for Chris
tian education in Korea. 1t means that
an-approval by the home board of the we'll
known missionary school at Songdo and
the other schools belonging to this mis-
sion will separate education from re-
ligion, and will not teach the Bible or
the tenets of Christianity during the reg
ular school hours. One school in Korea,
the Paichai Haktang, conducted by the
Northern Methodists, has already con-
formed TO the regulations, but no steps
on such large scale as that now pro-
posed by the southern mission have yet
been taken. II is understood that the
Southern Methodist mission board in
the United States viii meet in May. II
it approves the recommendation the
changes will be put into effect immedi-
ately.

THINKS AUSTRIA
STILL INNOCENT
Government Believes Her
Submarines Are
Quiet
HAS BROKEN
NO PLEDGE
The Reasons for a Continu-
ance of Relations Are
Stated

Washington, Feb. l5.--Partial explana.
ton was obtained from official sources
yesterday for the failure of the United
States to sever diplomatic relations with
Austria. In view of the fact that the
Austrian government, by a formal note
delivered to Secretary Lansing on the
day that the president broke with Ger
many, indorsed Germany's action, there
has been considerable amount OF CON
lecture as to why Count Tarnowski, the
new Austrian ambassador, has not also
been handed his passports.
According to the information obtained
yesterday, the American government has
strong reason to believe that AUSTRIA
while subscribing to the German subma-
rine decree, has no intention of taking
part in the submarine warfare. It is
not only believed in official circles that
she has no submarines with which to as
sist in such campaign but there is said
to be ground for the suspicion that the
so-called Austrian submarines which par
ticipated in the ruthless undersea war
fare of two years ago were actually Ger
man submarines flying Austrian eolors.
Another reason given for the more
lenient attitude toward Austria is the
fact that whereas President Wilson
based his break with Germany specific
ally ON the revocation by Germany of the
pledges given to this government against
a resumption of ruthless submarine war
fare, the Austrian government had never
given any such pledges. Although the
Austrian government shouldered the re-
sponsibility for the attack on the Ancona
and attempted to make amends satisfac-
tory to the American government, she
gave no specific pledges for the future.
Attention was called in official circles
Yesterday TO the fact that, as far as can
be ascertained, none of the merchant
ships that have been sunk since the new
German decree went into effect were at
tackled in the waters of the Mediterra
mean, where Austrian submarines would
De expected TO operate.
In other words, il was explained. the
American government feels that it is
justified in awaiting further develop
nents before breaking with Austria.
There are other considerations concerned
lbout which officials are DESTROYS that
here should be no speculation at this
line. but which, ii is indicated, may have
IN important bearing on the entire situa-
Jon.

NOT ALL GERMANS PLEASED.
By the Proclamation of the Kingdom of
Poland by Germany.

Stockholm, Feb. l5--The proclama-
ton of the Kingdom of Poland has not
been received with enthusiasm by all
Germans, as has been discovered by a
correspondents recent visit to Berlin,
There are, in the first place, the ultra.
annexationists, who want Germany to
retain those parts of Poland which it
now occupies. Another considerable
group opposes any strengthening OF Pol
ish influence in the affairs of Prussia or
Germany, and is convinced that such a
strengthening would result from the
erection of Polish kingdom, even with
out the annexation of any portion of the
country.
Another objection to the proposed new
kingdom is fear held in some quarters
that, no matter how independent such
a state might be in theory, and no mat
ter how much it might owe its independ-
ence to Germany and Austria Hungary,
il would still be so strongly subject to
Russian influence, either open or Sc
cret, that it would continually remain
an apple of discord, full of potentialities
for future mischief.
A possible strengthening of the in.
fiuence in Austria -Hungaria of the non
German races is also feared by some.
Finally, the alleged indifference of the
Poles themselves has exasperated many
of those who originally favored the eree-
ton of the new kingdom. The complaint
is general that the Poles. while thirsting
for national liberty, look TO the central
powers to make them present of it,
but do not greatly concern themselves
about helping to win it.
Voluntary enlistment of Poles in the
armies of the central powers have un-
questionably been very meagre. Def
mite figures are naturally uobtainable.

opening of the Warsaw university some
500 students are said to have signi-

$500 MEN WERE LOST.

port in Sea of Marmora.
London, Feb. l5.--The heaviest loss of
life at sea in single naval casualty
since the war occurred was that in the
Sea of Marmora on May 10, 1915, when
the Turkish transport Gul Canal was
torpedoed by the British submarine ETA
and sunk with the loss OF $500 lives.
Particulars of the sinking were given
this week in the prize court.
The Gul Canal was formerly the Brit

Germania. She was bought by the Turk.
ish government some time before the
war and converted into a transport. At
the time OF the sinking she was carrying
six thousand Turkish troops from Galata
to Gsllipoli, together with a field bat
terry of six 75mm krupp guns.
The story was told in the prize court
owing TO the application of the crew of
the Ella for the prize bounty of five
pounds per head which the British law
allows to men of war who sink enemy
warships. The amount claimed in this
case is f3l, 600
Counsel for the ETA, in introducing
the case, said: This is a large sum,
but soldier is worth hundreds of
pounds, and prize bounty at f5 per
head for sinking 5000 of them is small
in comparison. We contend that the
transport was an armed ship within the
meaning of the prize bounty act. She
was permanent constituent of the Turk
ish navy. As early as 1905, it was the
practice to arm permanently some of the
Turkish troopships. In this particular
case. the Gul Canal had aboard field ar
tillery as we'll as men armed with rifles,
and she was therefore. very formidable
opponent TO a submarine"
