Sidney was half alarmed, half irri-

underneath his quiet manner and cure

"AbSOlutely."

Messaggero, puts Austria in a
terrible dilemma, compelling her

More than 1000 miners along

twelve firms controlling twenty
two other mines stand firmly
against granting demands of
the men, claiming violation of
the union scale contract.

CORAL WOMAN
NOT A SUICIDE

PORTAGE, Feb. 20. - Miss
Sarah Fairbanks, whose home is
in Coral, Indiana county, was
found dead Tuesday afternoon
in the home of Calvin Plummer
of Portage. Miss Fairbanks
came to Portage about a year
ago and had been employed in
various residences, doing house
work. Recently she was engag-
ed by the Plummers.
Mr.. Plummer came home from
work Tuesday evening and
found the woman dead in an up
stairs room. A glass containing
some powders was found near
by.
The remains were removed to
the undertaking establishment
of John Tickerhoof, where an
autopsy was performed by DR..
]. F. Buzzard of Portage. Con-
trary to an earlier report that
she had committed suicide, it
was found that she had died
from acute indigestion.
Funeral services were held
yesterday at her home in Coral.

but to recall Ambassador Pen
field and all American consuls
and send the Austrian ambassa-
dor and his suite home.
It is considered likely that the
Austrian situation will receive
final consideration at tomor-
rows session of the cabinet. Un-
der orders from the president,
officials cannot discuss for pub
lication the development of the
last two weeks in the negotia-
tions between Washington and
Vienna. But they say that
nothing has appeared which
would warrant a strong hope
that a crisis was not to come.
It would have been forced before
this were it not for the fact that
the war prisoners relief work of
the Americans in Austro-Hun-
gary is on such scale that it
will be very hard to get another
neutral representative to take it
over.
