City Entrenched, Battle Is
 Believed Imminent; Peace
 Treaty to Austria Delayed Allied Plan to Hand Terms
 to Austria Wednesday Held Up by Chaos in Hungary
VIENNA, "Wednesday, May IA (By the Associated Press.)-Ali the allied representatives have left Budapest and red guards are digging trenches about the city.
PEACE MEET SUMMARY

Although the peace terms which the allied and associated powers are to present to the Austrian delegation are virtually complete and report has it that next Wednesday has been chosen as the day when the Austrians are to be called before the peace con- gross, the negotiations may be delayed by reason of the fact that Hungary, where extremely unstable conditions still exist, has failed to appoint dele gates to go to St. Germain.
 The council of four Thursday con- tinued discussion of the military items to be embodied in the Austrian com- pact. These, it is asserted, not only will require demobilization of the Au- strian army and prevent future con- scription but will call for the dis mantling of the famous Skoda works, Austria's great armament factories at Vienna and Prague where the mon- ster howitzers and other big guns used by the Teutonic armies during the war were made.
 Premier Clemenceau on Thursday discussed with Signor Orlando and Baron Sonnino the claims of Italy with regard to Plume and the Dalmatian coast, which are still unsettled. While it is reported that the Americans re- main opposed to sanctioning the turn ing over of Plume to the Italians, another report is to the effect that M. Trumbitch, head of the Jugo Slav commission, and Colonel House and Thomas Nelson. Page, American ann bassador to Italy, have discussed the formula of a compromise on Plume.
 A refusal to consider the note of the German peace delegation regard ing international labor legislation has been forwarded to the Germans by the council of four All the other Ger man communications have been refer red to peace conference commissions.
 Count von Brockdorff- Rantzau, head of the German delegation at Versailles, is declared in a Berlin dispatch to have informed his associates that the peace treaty as it stands cannot be ac- cepted, as it would be impossible to fulfill its terms, and that the sigma. ture of the German delegation would not be affixed to any document the terms of which could not be carried out ,..t.

and arrangements for the wedding were hastily begun yesterday.
 Mrs. Wrentmore, the brides mother, was called suddenly back to Manila on May 4. Today she cabled her con- gratulations to the governor-general and Mrs. Harrison.
 There was a third obstacle. Mrs. Mabel Judson Harrison, the governor generals second wife, today in San Diego, Calif., obtained her final de cree of divorce. With that bar sur mounted, final details for the .cere- mony were arranged at once. MT. Har- rison's first wife was Mary Crocker, of San Francisco, who died in 1905.
 MT. and Mrs. Harrison are expected to start tomorrow for Washington to visit his mother: They will probably spend a few days in New York also. Then they will motor through New England on their honeymoon trip.
 The governor-general and Mrs. Har- rison plan to sail on June F for Manila.

WINNIPEG TIED UP
 AS 3O,OOO STRIKE
Citizens Forced to Man Gas Water and Fire Depts.
 to Ensure Safety

WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Can, May 15.-Thirty thousand men and women struck today after metal workers and their tmployers had failed to adjust their differences and tonight the city's transportation system and other facilities were tied up. The strikers included city firemen, who were re- placed by emergency men, and the city employees of the gas and water works, which were manned by citi- zens.
 More than sixty unions joined in the strike during the day after the first men were called out at II a. m. by the Trade and Labor council.
 Although the police voted to strike. they were ordered by unionists of the No violence was reported during the day.
 Secretary Robertson of the labor council tonight said that the strikers would not return to work until they obtained all their demands.
 Tram SeTVlCS was nOI lLnpeueu, dl- though many shopmen quit work. The trainmen are not included in the strike.
 The bakers walked out in the af- ternoon and the telephone operators gave notice they would start sym pathetic strike Friday.
 The police force has remained in- tact, but there is some fear that they may strike. The railways and switch yards, so far, are not greatly ham, pered. About 4OOO employees of the Canadian Pacific railroad obeyed the strike order, but it is announced that the big four" or combined union of engineers, firemen, conductors and switchmen ,are not included in the strike.
 About 1900 Canadian government employees at Transcona, a suburb, struck today and came in on a spe- cial train.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, May 15.-Prospects tonight were that a jury in the trial of four prominent eastern Coolrado stocl% men for the murder of Samuel Hunt would not be obtained before late tomorrow after noon. The state passed the panel for cause at noon today but has 24 per emptory challenges, only ten of which had been used when court adjourned tonight.
 Both prosecution and defense ap- parently objected to the presence of cattlemen or farmers on the jury. The examination of talismen by the state indicated that the death penalty would not be asked Sor. The defend ants are Edward Firing, William Johns, George Snare and Walter Peak
 Hunt died in a local hospital fol lowing a beating he is alleged to have received in a midnight battle over the possession of a herd of cattle. The defense is expected to deny that he died from the effects of wounds re ] ceived in the fight.

PRO-GERNAN|SM IS FORD SUIT CHARGE
Claim Chicago Tribune Was Urging Preparedness to
 Aid the Kaiser
(By Review Leased wire)

MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich, May 15. Notice that the plaintiff in the $1,- O0O,000 libel suit of Henry Ford against the Chicago Daily Tribune and others will attempt to prove that the Tribune in urging military pre- paredness three years ago did so in an effort to aid Germany, was given to the jury here today by Attorney Alfred J. Murphy of counsel for Mir. Ford
 The statement was made in the form of final interrogatory to the entire jury, selection of which was finished today.
 We will try to prove,' said MT. Murphy, that the Chicago Daily Fri bune, in its campaign for prepared ness, was doing so solely in an effort to embroil the United States in war with Mexico so that American mu- nitions would be used on this conti- nent instead of being shipped to the enemies of Germany. Does any mem- Der of the jury hold views or has he held views which would prejudice him against fair consideration of eviednce to prove this contention?"
 The jurors all disclaimed that pos sibility of prejudice. Since the mem- bers of the jury, all but one of whom are farmers, will be permitted to re- turn to their homes at night, Judge Tucker was particularly emphatic in warning against discussing the case with anyone.
 Lawyers on both sides professed themselves as satisfied with the in- telligence of the jurors, all of whom are men of mature years.
 Tribune lawyers expressed the be- lief that the charge of pro-Germanism made by MT. Murphy makes certain that the Tribune will be allowed to present the immense amount of evi- dence and testimony it has gathered to prove that at the time the alleged libel was published, June 23, 1916, preparedness had become a burning necessity. It is the contention of, the counsel for the Detroit manufacturer that such evidence is irrelevant and that the only question properly before the court is whether the editorial headed Henry Ford Is an Anarchist" libeled or did not libel the plaintiff.

GOUernOr Of Philippines, 45,
 Weds Third Wife, Girl Of IS

CHICAGO, May 15.-Francis Burton Harrison, 45 years old, governor gen. eral of the Philippine islands, and Miss Elizabeth Wrentmore, IS years old, a student of the University of Califor- mia at Berkeley, Calif., were mar ried at 5:3O o'clock this afternoon The Rev. Johnstone Myers, pastor of Immanuel Baptist church, officiated. The ring ceremony was used. Only a small party of guests was in attend ance.
 The marriage was the continuation of a romance said to have begun a year ago when the governor general met the present Mrs. Harrison at a dance at che palace in Manila. Miss Wrentmore had been a student at the University of Washington and a year ago went to the University of Califor- nia. She is a daughter of Professor Wrentmore, dean of the college of Manila.
 The romance met obstacles, how ever, and one of them caused the mar riage ceremony to be performed here instead of at the home of the gover- nor generals mother, Mrs. Constance Cary Harrison, author, in Washing ton, D. c.
 1 Mrs. Wrentmore at the time the en- gagement was announced in New York several months ago said she would not give her consent to her daugh- ter's marriage to the governor gen. eral, who will be 46 years old next De- cember. His age she said, was the only bar. But the daughter declared she was of legal age and loved the governor-general and would marry him
 Another obstacle, a more recent one was a diphtheria quarantine at the Wrentmore home in Berkeley.
 Miss Wrentmore was said by the Berkeley health authorities to have disregarded the quarantine when she left a short time ago. She came tC Chicago a week ago and applied tC the Chicago health department fol assurance of her status. Because o the necessity for a delay during whict throat cultures were taken 1t wal decided to have the ceremony here and Mir. Harrison came on from Wash ington. The health department found that the young woman was safely re

DIRIGLBLE WRECKED AT SEA, TWO PLA IN FALSE START,
 v. S. OCEAN MISHAP RECORD
SEAPLANES HOP OFF" NEWFOUNDLAND SHORE, BUT HOP RIGHT BACK AGAIN

TREPASSEY, N. F.. May 15.-The navy's two giant seaplanes, NC-1 and NC-3, which have been waiting here for several days for a favorable op- portunity to start their transatlantic flight, tried to 'hop off" today, but failed
 The two seaplanes today taxied down the harbor, their fuel tanks full, but never left the water While no official statement that the pilots in tended to start their 1850 mile cruise to the Azores has been made, it is believed that had the planes been able to take the air they would have attempted the flight.
 After cruising down the harbor, both planes began discharging fuel, apparently in an effort to tighten their load. Shortly afterward, haw- ever, they returned to their mother ships.
 While the planes were still taxieing about the harbor, the NC-4, which last Thursday dropped out of the initial leg of the transatlantic flight and put in at Chatham, Mass, for repairs, arrived. The failure of the NC-1 and the NC-3 to start today may mean that the three planes will start to- gether when hey attempt to cross the Atlantic
Bisbee daily review., 1919-05-16

ficials here, the failure of the sea- planes NC-1 and NC-3 to get started on the transatlantic flight caused no apprehension.
 It was confidently expected that the planes, possibly accompanied by the NC-4 which arrived at Trepassey Bay during the day, would get under way just before sundown tomorrow and reach the Azores some time Saturday afternoon
 The navy department had no off cial reports at a late hour either as to the attempts of the planes at Ire pessey to get into the afr carrying the maximum quantity of gasoline or as to the arrival there of the NC-4.
 The efforts of Commander Towers and Lieutenant Commander Bellinger to get the NC-1 and NC-3 into the air today to begin the flight to Europe were probably in the nature of an ex- perimental start, officers here said, although had the machines succeeded in difting the heavy loads they car ried without question they would have proceeded.
 Officers here who have been in close touch with the planes and diff ficultSes of the flight have counted up on at least one false start and are convinced that the machines will get away tomorrow afternoon, weather permitting. The arrival of the NC-4, however. may persuade Commander Towers to wait even another day un- til that boat can be made fully ready and the original group of three planes make the start together

GERMAN PROTESTS
 ARE FRAUDULENT

PARIS, May 15-(By the Associated Press. .)-The conviction is growing in allied circles that most of the German protests against the peace treaty so far received were written before the reading of the treaty and are designed as propaganda. This conviction is strengthened by the fact that the text of the treaty is not quoted and that the protests have been published in Berlin before they were received in Paris.
 The conference, however, is refer ring all protests to commissions which will consider them on their merits.
