Vienna Cabinet Issues Man
ifesto On Annexation of
Southern Tyrol.

Basel, Switzerland. May 15.-The
German-Austrian cabinet at Vienna
has issued a manifesto in which il
claims that president Wilson. through
his approval Of the treaty Of London
as far as that pact concerned the
demarcation Of the frontier between
italy and German Austria, which meant
the annexation Of the southern TyroL
had acquiesced in a violation OF the
ninth Of his II points.
This ninth point, unlike the tenth.
says the manifesto was not subjected
to change in the news issued at the
time OF the conclusion OF the armis-
tice- The document adds that the
Italian claims TO the southern Tyrol
are founded purely on strategic
grounds.
Made offer; No Reply.
It is pointed out that the German
Austrian government offered long ago
10 neutralize the southern Tyrol mill
tarlly, while retaining administrative
and economic control of il, but il had
never a reply TO this offer.
The manifesto concludes by declar-
ing that if Italy takes the southern
IyroL the remainder Of the Tyrol
would inevitably be absorbed BY Ger
many, with the result that German
Austria would be cut off from the rest
OF the world except through Germany
and, therefore, would be obliged 70
unite herself with Germany.

Commissioners. it was rumored this
afternoon, would ask for the resigna-

The Commissioners interviewed Mr..
Zinkhan yesterday and today took
the matter up with the board Of
charities. which exercises direct super
vision over the Districts charitable
and penal institutions.
None OF the District heads would
discuss the probable action to be
taken. though it was intimated an in
veStiGation was in progress, about which
q statement might be made later.
Conduct of affairs at the Jail was
the subject of an investigation by the
Commissioners thirteen months ago. at
the time fifteen prisoners made get
away. All but two of the prisoners
eventually were returned.
Mr.. Zinkhan became superintendent
OF the Washington Asylum when 1t
included the Jail and workhouse, in
the name of the Washington Asylum
and Jail, following the transfer of the
workhouse to Occoquan, Va. he con-
tinued at its head.
1t il understood the Commissioners
are considering asking Congress for
better pay for jail ofiicials and guards
Under present appropriations, guards
are paid $S5 month and captains $50
o month. The board Of charities has
taken the position that this is not
sunicient compensation. and Indications
are that Congress will be asked to
remedy the matter.

guards who were suspended from the
District Jail in connection with the
Copeland, who was awaiting trial for
the murder Of three policemen. The
guards claim that they were refused
. hearing before Commissioner
Brownlow on the ground that the ele-
mentary facts in the case prove them
guilty Of neglect.
The guards story is: At the District
to 13S mon. and with the men on four
floors 1t takes at least ten minutes
TO make the rounds. At the conclusion
OF their customary rounds Sunday
night they were met by the outside
guard. who informed them that a bar
on the outside had been sawed.
After An inspection they reported to
the outside guard that there were no
men missing. The guard himself then
accompanied them on another tour.
and he. too. was satisfied that the mon
were all accounted for.
At o'clock in the morning the su-
perintendent of the Jail was notified
Of the bar being cut. the guards say.
but he did not arrive at the jail until
6 o'clock. He made no inspection, but
asked the men IL everything was all
right
At 7:45 the two guards were relieved
from duty and the new guard came
on. 1t was net until $40, when one Of

him for the regular bathing schedule,

commander of the militia: Maj. Fred

President May Attend.
An effort will be made to have the
President and the secretaries of War
and Navy attend the presentation ex-
erciees- Realizing the impracticabilfty
OF asking any of these officials to pin
tee has decided to divide all of the
Districts men into 100 teams and all
the medals for each team will be
formally presented to one soldier
designated as captain.
In selecting these 100 captains the
committee will seek men who are
willing to help the committee in get
ting the name of every Washington
man who is entitled to a medal. Each
captain will be expected to vouch
for each man on his team as a bona
ned enlisted man.
It is estimated that there we're about
$4,000 enlisted men from the District
in the military service during the
war.
Gen. Simms and his committee will
start at once on the big task Of
gathering the roll of honor. The date
of the presentation probably will not
be decided on until the District fight
ers still in France return.
