NEWARK, N. j., Feb. ia con-
unemployed in New Jersey to-day as a
result of the partial suspension of the
power service of the Public Service
Corporation at $4,000. Half of these
make their homes in or about this city
The remainder are scattered through
the northern part Of the state.
The corporation received thirty car
loads of coa!-ahout 1900 tons, which
is half days supply-in the course of
the day. This was sufficient to keep
trolley cars in operation and meet do
mtSic needs
The City Commissioners sent an ur-
gent appeal to Fuel Administrators Gar
field to relieve the situation. Hundreds
of kilograms were sent by factory own
ers and others.
The corporation officials say they
sent warnings to their users, stating
the exact facts as to the supply of
coal and asking that every possible
effort be made to cut down the amount
of power used. They assert no atten-
tion was paid to this.
At least 70 per cent of those laid off
by the shutdown have been at work on
government contracts. In their appeal
to the Fuel Administrator the City
Commissioners stated that unless i'm
mediate relief was furnished the gov
ernment would suffer great injury
One of the most important plants to

Liner Having Lifeboat
Drill When Torpedoed
Andania Survivors Say U-Boat
Chose Opportune Time

AN ATLANTIC PORT, Feb. 13.-The
German submarine that torpedoed the
Cunarder Andania two weeks ago off
the Irish Coast chose for her work
the opporJunc moment when the pas
sengers and crew of the vessel were
preparing for a lifeboat drill, accord
ing to the story of twenty survivors
who arrived here yesterday.
The Andanm, they said, left her
home port on Saturday night. Pas
sengers were informed that evening
that there would be an abandon ship"
drill the following morning at 1O:3O
Because Of the fact that the next day
was Sunday and divine services were
to be held, this hour was advanced to
10.
At 9:57 the Andania was torpedoed

The boats had already been swung

instead Of the real thing
The vessel was one of convoy OF
seven. Warsh ips tried to tow the ves-
sci back to the coast, but she sank in
deep water. Her boats were all picked
up by trawlers and landed in Ireland.
On the same ship there arrived

Serbian Mission Head
Sees No Peace Signs

Dr. Milcnko' Vesnitch, head of the
Serbian Mission to this country, sees
no signs of early peace on the horizon.
He said yesterday that the apparent
discord between the peace replies of
Count Won Hertlmg and Count Czernin
is merely a carefully thought out dip
lomaNc move on the part of the Cen
tral Powers to cause confusion among
the Allies and to give rise to peace
hopes, with an attendant slackening
among the Allied peoples.
II am unable to believe" said Dr.
Nesnitch, "that President Wilson's ad-
dress will separate Austria from Ger
many. The apparent discord is only
new move seeking the kind of peace
Germany wants. The only logical end
to this war is victory. The kind of
peace Germany wants would put the
Prussan Junkers in command of the
world for a century to come.
"Even if the separation of Germany
and Austria could be obtained, it would
mean failure of the Allies war aims.
for so long as Austria Hungary is al
lowed to continue there will be no
peace in Europe. The Hapsburg mon
archy never has been and never will
be able to become a country Of justice
and liberty"
DR. Vesnitch characterized the Prcsi-
dents speech as one of the foremost
state papers Of the war, one which
would inject new feeling for freedom
among the Ieutonlc people.

French Press Asserts
Wilson Has Cleared
Air for the Allies

PARIS, Feb. 13.-ln the opinion Of
the press the situation has been
cleared by President Wilson's remarks
in his address to Congress concerning
the German military autocracy, taken
in conjunction with the recent state
ment of Emperor William that Ger
many's enemies must recognize her as
victorious. The Emperors utterances
are accepted as expressing the real
sentiments Of the dominant class in
Germany, and the conclusion is drawn
that there must be implacable warfare
until German militarism is finally de-
feated.
"President Wilson'S thesis implies
war to the hilt and to an end that is
still far from view" says the Figaro"
"The war will be ended either accord
ing to the views of Emperor William,
by unanimous submission to Germany,
or by the wrecking of German mili.ar-
ism"
'L'Homme 'Libre" says: emperor
William admits the possibility of peace
only after complete victory of the Ser
mans. President Wilson admits this
possibility only after the defeat of the
German army"
The Socialist newspaper "Humani,e"
refrains from drawing any conclusions
as to the prospects for long continual
tion of the war, but praises the att-
tude OF the President, saying: "To the
old idea, in accordance with which men
were treated as cattle, Mr. Wilson op-
poses the humane idea of the future,
in which justice and liberty will insure
durable peace, and in which small
nations will be respected by larger

astlc applause and cheers for America
met the declaration Of Premier Orlando
at the opening of Parliament to-day
that the war situation was growing bet
ter, due to help from the United States.
replacing Russia.
Premier Orlando reviewed the Yer
sallles conference and pointed out that
so far as Italy was concerned the con-
tlnuatlon of the war was no longer a
matter of choice, but necessity. Also.
he said, this fact is understood by ali
patriotic Italians, who are now willing
to wage war to the bitter end. Regard

that they were unimperialistic
"A she wants." Premier Orlando de-
clared, land no less, and she can wish
for no more, is the security of her
national boundaries by land and sea
and also the fultilment of her national
unity.
''lt is materially seen how 1talv's
citizens view the war question by the
fact that the unfinished national loan

Papers Declare President
Still Stands Behind Ameri-
can War Principles
Czernin Still Doubted
DAILY News" Asserts Policy
of Knockout Blow Has
Again Emerged

LONDON, Feb 13.-President Wilson
stands head and shoulders above all
others as the spokesman of the Allied
peoples, in the opinion Of "The Man
chester Guardian" mainly because he
is able to keep firmly and constantly
in view the reasons why America came
into the war. The newspaper contrasts
the Presidents address to Congress
with the official report on the outcome
of the recent session Of the Supreme
War Council at Versailles, and instances
the various times in which Mr.. Wilson
has come forward to remedy "our
shortcomings, take up dropped stitches
and repair all too palpable lapses of
our own and Allied diplomacy" and has
done 1T with conspicuous and admirable
effect.
President Wilson, says "The Guard
ian," finds himself in substantial agree
ment with Count Czernin. the Austro-
Hung sarian Foreign Minister, but the
Presidents criticism of Count Won Hert-
ling, the German Imperial Chancellor,
frank as it is penetrating, leaves him
in no doubt as to the attitude of the
United States toward the methods he
represents and the war aims he has
fathercd."
Sees Open Door Policy
If anything is needed to emphasize
the diplomatic wisdom of President
Wilson's speech, "The Daily News"
says, it would be supplied by con-
trast between the principles laid down
IN Washington and the principles laid
down in Versailles. 1t adds:
"From the bankrupt craftsmanship
of the Allied conference has emerged
what is in effect reassertion of the
knockout blow doctrine. No declara-
tion of war aims is formulated; no dis
tinction between the speeches of Won
Hertling and Czernin is recognized.
"The keynote of the Presidents
speech is the policy of the open door;
peace is waiting as soon as the Central
Powers are ready. Count Won Hertling
having baked at the Presidents four
teen definite proposals, Mr.. Wilson goes
back to first principles and substitutes
four fundamental propositions which
the Chancellor can repudiate only at
the cost of writing himself down a
brigand. The door still stands OPEN"
