APPRECIATION
Embassy at Washington "Pro-
foundIy Stirred by Presidents
Words of Encouragement"

Washington, Jan. 9.-The Russian
embassy today issued a statement of
appreciation Of President Wilson's
reference to the Russian people in his
address yesterday to congress.
"The Russian embassy" 1t said.
"profoundly stirred by the generous
words of encouragement addressed to
Russian people in the last message or
the president, Is cherishing a most
earnest and vivid hope that this mo-
mentous appeal tot Justice and democ-
racy will be brought to the knowledge
of every Russian citizen and resound
all through the boundless Russian
country.
Support to Allies Cause.
"The new statement of war aims,
embodying the supreme precepts OF
equity and unselfishness, is certain to
deeply touch the hearts OF the Rus
SLAMS. The president, by emphasiz-
ing the best of the idealistic striv-
ings of the Russian people and the
real essence OF their seeking of a just
and democratic settlement, has given
powerful support in Russia to the
cause the allies are fighting for.
"The greatest value should be at
tributed to the vivifying factor of a
firm recognition, as an esentia1 war
aim, that Russia should be enabled to
achieve an unembarrassed and inde-
pendent determination of her own poll
tical developments and national policy.
Will Strengthen Faith
'"The assistance pros~fsed the Rus=
sian people, in attaining their utmost
hope Of liberty, will strengthen the
faith and pour new stream of energy
into all elements in Russia, which, in

pose, in the way conditions will allow.

ments of the luminous ends of hu-

successfully completing a sorties
into the German lines, east of st,

on 1-mile front were penetrated

the French returned to their own
lines.
The French also made an attempt
against the enemy lines near Ammerz-
weilder in Alsace, according to Berlin,
which claims the thrust was repulsed.
Paris announces the checking of Ger

Washington. Jan. 9.-"The solid
south" is breaking up in its opposition
in the house to the federal amendment
granting woman's suffrage. This is
the claim of suffrage leaders and ad-
vocates of the cause who are waging
a silent fight in congress for a sue
cessful vote Thursday.
The republicans in the house are
playing a clever game of politics. They
are lining up so that if the suffrage
amendment carries they will claim
much of the credit, and if it fails the
democrats will stand to lose by 1t.
The New York election has done
much to change the opinion of mem
bers of congress, and there are many
new conversions to the faith. The
west and north, as represented in con-
gress, are fairly solid for the amend
ment, it is claimed.
Here is how some of the important
states will vote, according to the fore
cast:
Illinois and New York will be prac-
tically solid for the amendment. There
may be two exceptions in New York.
1t is declared a majority in Pennsyl-
vania is for the amendment. Western
states, such as Nevada, Colorado and
Kansas, will vote for suffrage. In Iowa
all but one representative will vote for
suffrage. In Missouri the suffrage
cause will get all but one vote. Wash
ington and Wyoming will vote in the
affirmative; California and Oregon
likewise.
Indiana is considered pivotal state,
but there are not more than two of the
representatives who will vote against
the amendment, and one Of these said
yesterday: Il want to vote for the

a divided vote. The sentiment is not
yet crysallized.

London, Jan. 9.-The hospital ship
Rewa was torpedoed and sunk in the
Bristol channel on Jan. while on heT
way from Gibraltar, it is announced
officially. All the wounded were saved
There were three casualties among the
crew. The announcement follows:
"His majestys hospital ship Rewa
was torpedoed and sunk in the 6ris-
toI channel at about midnight on Jan
q on her way home from Gibraltar
All the wounded were safely trans
ferred to patrol vessels. There were
only three casualties among the crew
three Lasears being missing.
"She was displaying all the lights
and markings required by The Hague
convention. She was not and had not
been within the called barred zone
as delmited in the statement issued
by the German government on Jan. 49,
1917"
After making several charges oi
misuse of hospital ships, which were
denied specifically by the entente gov
ernments concerned, the Germans last
year suspended the immunity of these
vessels in the English channel and
certain other waters. The British dis
continued special markings of hospital
ships on grounds that they were
merely rendered conspicuous thereby
and were more liable to attack. Last
September King Alfonso of Spain in
tervened and succeeded in obtaining
an agreement from the belligerents
for the free movement OF hospital
ships within specified areas.
The torpedoed vessel probably was
the British steamship Rewa, 1908 tons
gross and 456 feet long. She was
built in 1906 and owned in Glasgow
and has been in the service of the
British government.
The Bristol channel is an arm OF
the Atlantic extending into the south
western part of Great Britain between
Wales and the southwestern counties
of England.
LANDED AT SWANSEA.
Cardiffe, Wales, Jan. 9.-Most of the
survivors of the Rewa were landed
at Swansea. Many of them were
without clothing of any kind. The
wounded were removed Immediately
to hospital.
The torpedo which sank the Rewa
went directly through the Red Cros;
