ist throughout the interior of Russia, which may bring on a volcGnic erup- tion any moment"
 General Diaz paid tribute to Amer ica as a young and vigorons nation which had jus. sent another thrill through Italy by her presidents rec ommendation for war against Austria
 We have always been close" he ad- ded, but now we are closer, and soon will be fighting together Italy and America have entered this war for the same ideal-the ideal of humanity and human liberty"
 General Diaz seems to grow more vigorous under the great responsibility he is bearing. His starr officers say this is due largely to his singular calm, which remains unruffled in the midst of the most critical conditions. When reference was made to the weight of responsibility upon the general in re- organizing the army and then directing it's fighting on two fronts, he said:
 T find there is only one sure trust in meeting such responsibilities, and that it is firm, unshakeable confi- dence."

Cali for Snrums

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Urgent calls for anti-pneumonia serum and diptheria anti-toXin came to the Amer ican Red Cross headquarters tonight from relief workers at Halifax. The public health service arranged to sup ply sufficient anti-toXin for five hun dred patients, and long distance tele- phone calls to the four laboratories in the country which make anti-pneu- monia serum brought assurances that a large part of the one thousand units wanted would be on the way north before morning.
 John r. Moors, in charge of the Red Cross work at Halifax. reported today that general medical and other needs had been so fully supplied that further contributions of supplies and contingents of doctors and nurses should await specific requests.
 Two express carloads of clothing and shoes, including 500 overcoats, will be shipped to Halifax from New Yorl: tvt morrow. To meet the demand for glass to replace the shattered windows of the town, w. Frank Persons, di- rector general of civilian welfare, to- day ordered five carloads of glass to be started for Halifax at once. In ad- dition 149e cases of glass were ship ped from Boston today by the Mas sachusetts public safety committee which expects to send 1900 more cases Tuesday on steamer that will carry 25, 900 Red Cross blankets.

SURVIVORS OF MO
 ARE UNDER ARREST
 FOR INVESTIGATION
Continued from Page One)
Frenchman was at fault.

F'renchman was at fault.
 The Mont Blanc was struck on the starboard side and Veered toward shore Captain Lameeoc said that an instant after the crash a gush of smoke was seen issuing from the vessel. He inn mediately gave orders for all hands to take to the boats.
 Taking up the story at this point, an officer said:
 There were tanks of benZol and picric acid aboard and we knew that the jar of the collision causing a spark, had ig'nited these chemicals among which the flames could burn only a few moments before they spread to the T. N. T. Our small boats were nearly swamped in our eff forts to escape
 "On the beach we found a multi tude lining the waters edge and watch ing the dense mass of black and yellow smoke arising on the deck of the abandoned ship A few took warning from our flight and followed us. We made for the woods and were a mile | inland, I should judge, when the ex- | plosives let go. Our gunner was struck 1 by a flying fragment of steel and fell mortally wounded
 The Wireless operator, who with the gunner had outdistanced the rest of us, was next hit by a piece of steel. He fell beside his shipmate. Another man was struck by bits of metal. but his injuries were superficial"
 According to information obtained by government inspectors there were forty tons of T. N. T. in the forward hold and $40 tons in the holds aft. In addition the cargo included large quantity of shells and ammunition of various kinds.
 It was officially stated tonight that the arrest of the survivors of the steamer Imo was not due to the dis covery of evidence of an enemy plot Inquiry by government experts has established, it was said, that the col lision was accidental.
 There was, however, fault on the part of the navigators and there were unofficial reports that the Mont Blanc was taking the wrong side of the channel. Justice Rysdale, an expert 1r admiralty law, was tonight designated to conduct an inquiry.

ITALIAN LINES
 SHORTENED SAME
 AS THE AUSTR|ANS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

ITALIAN ARMY HEADQUARTERS IN NORTHERN ITALY, Saturday, Dec. S.-(By the Associated Press.)- In the course of a conversation today with General Armando DiaZ, chief of staff of the Italian army, who is direct ing the operations on the Italian front, the correspondent drew his attention to the recent statement of General von Ludendorff of the German staff con- corning Italy. The German general had said that one effect of the Italian cam palgn was to shorten greatly the Aus tro-German front.
 That is quite true" said General Dlaz, and 1t is equally true that it has shortened the Italian front to exactly the same extent. If any consolation IS to be drawn from the shortening of the front it is entirely mutual"
 With regard to von Ludendorffs all fusion to Trieste in the same interview, in which he declared it now was out of danger, General Diaz declared em- phatically:
 The question of Trieste will never be settled. So long as Trieste remains in the hands of Austria, Trieste will ! remain in danger. Trieste is essen- tlaIly an Italian city, in an Italian province, with an Italian population, and that will make it an everlasting danger to those who hold it against it's natural instincts and in defiance of nationality"
 General von Ludendorff's assertion that the season had increased the diff flculties of the Austro-German cam palgn, especially in the mountains 1 struck General Diaz as quite at vari- ance with the facts.
 On the contrary" he said, "the sea son has operated wholly to the ad- 1 vantage of the Austro- German forces Last year in November wE had six ard some times eight feet of snow where the present opNrations ara going on whereas now, in December, there is virtually no snow or only a few inches Ihls condition is of great advantage to the enemy in permitting the move ment Of troops, supplies, ammunition and especially his heavy guns Witt normal winter conditions prevailing il the north the enemy now would be 1T the grip of impossible snows."
 General Diaz had just received the report Of a successful attack by Italian forces in the north and his calm fact lighted up as he spoke of the valor tht Italian troops were disp-ayIng. NAdl tHey nave uOne along tht Pave and in the north is an everlasting tribute of glory to their soldierly qualities" he said. What they ac- eomplished in the face of heavy odds IS evidence of their unshakeable de termination"
 The general was asked if the Rus slan armistice was likely to bring nor, Austro-German endorsements iron the Russian front
 A great number of reinforcement mas already been breugnt from tha point, he replied, but doubt whethe tnls so-called armistice will permi them to withdraw many more troop rom that front. They know very wei that conditions of deep unrest still ex

relief of the homeless and the recon struction of the stricken district of Halifax, was issued today by the may ors of Halifax and Dartmouth. The appeal explained that the ruin was complete in a wide area occupied al most exclusively by the laboring class.
 Tt is feared" says the appeal, that two thousand persons have been killed, thousands have been injured and in nearly all cases the families in the dev- astated areas have been left destitute and penniless. The stricken district was occupied almost exclusively by the people of the industrial and poorer classes.
 "For the present and immediate fu- ture, shelter and maintenance is being found for them in public buildings and private homes, but the season of the year renders it imperative that imme- diate steps shall be taken to begin the work of reconstruction. For this pur- pose we estimate that between twenty and twenty five million dollars will be required, and in the names of these stricken communities we send out this message of appeal to the general pub lie of Canada, for immediate help.
 We have confidence that the citi- zenS of our own city and province will not ldlt us III Llle uOuS6 Ol OuI ulStlCSo and we are sustained by an equally confident hope that our appeal to the other portions of the dominion will meet with a prompt and generous re- sponse."
 The Bank of Nova Scotia, Halifax will act as treasurer of the relief fund and the branches of that bank and of all the other banks in Canada will re- ceive subscriptions and transmit them | to Halifax without charge.
 In order to avoid confusion, Amer ican and Canadian cities which have planned to ship supplies here were re- quested in a statement issued today | by the repairs and reconstruction con- mittee to wire a reasonably accurate description of materials offered before shipments are made.
 Building materials of every kind, es- pecially lumber and roofing products are most urgently needed.
 All the railroads connecting witt and running into Halifax have beer requested to expedite shipments ant committees sending relief supplies art asked to placard all cars: Halifax re- lief-rush."
 Cities anxious to help should tele. graph Colonel R. $, Low, as to wha they have to offer, and await his re ply before shipping.
