:; the Australian attitude toward the United Sta Americans, says:
 No visiting American with an @intell- gent outlook, and with his eyes and ears open to what he sees and hears, can fail to dis that in Australia a very genuine feel ing of friendship is felt for the grest Western Republic and it's people. In the past score of years more especially, the sentiment has been strengthened by the belief that has tablshed itself in the minds of most Aus tralians that the interests of the United States and Australia closely interwoven, poi- tically. socially and economically, that it is essential that the closest relations should be fostered and maintained between the Eng fish speaked democracy of che North, and this democratic contingent at the antipodes. In the first place, it to American institu- tions that most peoples eyes turned when the federation of the Australian colonies was determined on and in many respects the example of the Amerinan constitution was adopted when framing the constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia, which has not yet completed its second decade of existence The whole-hearted enthusiasm which was evoked during the visit to these attitudes of the American fleet under Rear Admiral Sperrys command in 1908 another indi- cation of the friendly spirit entertained by the Australians for the people of America ana their country and for obvious reasons the growth of that spirit has been very rapid ever since that memorable event.
 Cynics might uncharitably declare that self-lnterest on the part of Australia had had much to do with her attitude toward Amer lea, and to some extent the accusation can scarcely be denied But this I can say from my personal Knowledge of both peoples and countries; their attitudes much in har- mony With each other. and the average Aus trai1an would feel himself to be less of a stranger in America than would be the case II ne visited Great Britain. The ways of Americans are more like those of his own countrymen, and there is an atmosphere of a,lo a.1homeness meme. about his surroundings that make him think that he is still in Australia can give no better explanation of the req sons TOT such close affinity between the people Of America and Australia; and their cordlality toward each other has been decid edly strengthened by the mutual relationship duced" ' Pio

NOTHING FROM MEXICO
 ON. THE JENKINS AFFAIR

Washingtn, Dec. 7.-There was no word tonight indicating asolution of the mystery which has developed from the sudden relase of William o. Jen- kins, American consular agent, from the Peubla jail, after the determined demand of this government apparently had failed to influence his Mexican captors. Both the state department and Jenkins himself already have started investigations with the object of determining what influences were instrumental Tn putting up the $500 bail bond which the, Mexican govern ment so readily accepted
 Admittedly, the crux of an interna- tional situation of utmost tenseness two days ago. the Jenkins case has now become a diplomatic enigma, the solution of which offers interesting but not dangerous possibilities.
 A careful investigation of reports that Mexico has taken steps to aug ment her aviation forces has failed to corroborate the statement that g squadron of "A modern pursuit planes are available for service In- formation obtained through reliable sources considered by military and state agencies to be thoroughly de- pendable, puts the total strength of the Mexican air department at less than dozen planes. none of which

DUELLiNG BLOOD IN ITALY
 COOLED BY AN EXPLANATION

Rome, Dec. IA duel between Count Gabriel Gravania and Cavalier Attilo Fabbri was narrowly averted last week. The trouble between the two men was the outgrowth of stric- lures upon Gabrielle D'Annunzio made by Fabbri.

 When the seconds chosen for the encounter met, those of Fabbri said Fabbri did not understand how he could have offended Count Gabriel by simply expressing his opinion of DAnnunzio. Gravahia's seconds thereupon said the counte interpreted Fabbri's words os impugning Ora : vania's family honor. The count, it is said, claims to be a relative of D'Annunzio.
 Fabbrfs seconds declared that Fab bri had no intention of refiecting up- on Gravania's family and the seconds | therefore decided that duel was not necessary and invited the tow men to shakes hands and peaceably settle the | controversy. The count and the cava- Tier agreed to this.
