car in which the men r travelling is
theirs or one that they have stolen.

Miss Brooks has had a share In
many of the most interesting incidents
of the war. II was to her desk that
the news zane of the sinking Of the
Aztec and the Vacuum. She received
the account of the sinking of the first
German submarine by the Silver
Shell of the long battle of the Moreni,
which fought an enemy U-boat until
almost the entire ship was In flames:
Of the four-hour fight Of the j. l..
times, refused to surrender. She made
out the lists of the first men taken
prisoner by Germany, members Of the
armed guard of the Inflated Campana.
She has Transcribed many letters of
commentator of men for heroic
deeds, and many messages transmit
ting to relatives the sad news that a
son, husband or brother has been
killed or wounded.
The names, ratings and addresses Of
armed guards are kept on cards, In a
separate envelope for each vessel.
The records of all those who lose
their lives In the service of their coun-
try are kept in q special division.
These constitute the navy's "roll OF
honor" Those who have been com
mended for heroic deeds also have a
special place-and there r hundreds
Of them already, though we have been
at war less than a year. The depart
ment seeks to secur and keep on file
photographs OF all the men Of the
navy killed in service against the en-
envy, and those specially commended.
Miss Brooks has had a hand In build
ing up these measures to p~erpetuate
the memory of the navy's heroes and
preserve interesting and authentic ma
terial for history.

Vienna Conference Stopped Abruptly,
Dispatch Indicates.

Zurich, May ia Vienna dispatch
saws Count Karolyi, the Hungarian
liberal leader, made some grave rev.
Citations" in the Hungarian chamber
of DEPUTIES. A fierce attack by him
nm Germany led to violent scenes, the
dispatch says, and stormy debate
is still under way.
Vienna has put forward the sugges-
tion that Saturdays conference be-
tween Emperor Karl and the Kaiser
broke up in a row. A semiofficial
Austrian dispatch received here says:
"The conference was to have lasted
six days. 1t was prematurely inter
rupted."
This is regarded by officials and dip
lomats here as a mere effort On the
part of Karl to still for the momenc
the storm of protest from his peo-
pie against the way he bent his neck
to Berlin.
Diplomatic dispatches assert that a
realization of the divergent interests
of the peoples involved makes the
realization of the two Kaisers' plan
doubtful. 1t is believed, however, that
the Industrial, agricultural, CONNER
cial and military advantages for Ger
many in the proposed agreement are
such that Berlin will insist upon its
being carried out at all costs-by the
bayonet, if necessary.
