SUPREME COUNCIL REPLIES
 TO THE ADRIATIc NOTE

London, Feb. r (By the A. P.).-The American embassy is engaged tonight in coding and forwarding to Wash lngton the reply of the supreme coun- cil to President Wilson's Adriatic note, which will be in the hands of the Washington government tomorrow.
 The council made it known in ;ts daily semi official communication to the newspapers that it does not nroe pose to make public the corresnon- dence, so that the question of whetber the text of the notes will be given to the world rests with President Vii son.
 Since the main facts are nub1io property, namely. that the president strongly. objects to the solution of. the Italian -Jugoslav problem by the annIi- cation Of the treaty. of London thereto and objects so strongly as to contern- plate Americas withdrawal from tha Versailles. compact as a possibility and that the council objects to the re- opening of the question. the undecided point is whether the arguments ex- changed shall be published while the controversy is hot on the anvil
 The statement from Washinoton confirming the first reports that inc president had intimated that reiection Of his policy might. be followed bv diplomatic reDrisals furnished another surprise to the politicians and the public, because it came close on the heels of other Washington messages

INTEREST HAS sUBsiDED IN
 SHIPPING BOARD AUCTION

Washington, Feb. 7.-Recommend- ations as te the future policy to be fol- lowed. by the Shipping Board in re- gard to the sale of the thirty German passenger ships which has stirred up controversy involving several branches of the government, will be submitted to the senate commerce committee tomorrow by Chairman Payne.
 The end of. the auction for receiving bids on tn evessels came quickly to- day with only one offer made out of a choice of 19 ships. The largest ves- sells of the fleet, including the Levia- than, George. Washington, Agamem- non and Mount Vernon were passed over without arousing the interest of the shipping men who yesterday bid millions for the liners in groups.
 Under the announcement at the opening the auction, no action will be taken on the bids without the sanc- ton ofthe senate commerce committee and thehouse merchant marine com mittee Snd pending the decision of the injunction proceedings brought by William Randolph Hearst, as tax payer to prevent the sale of any of the vessels. tas
 Officials of the board today express ed disappointment at the light bidding
 
 bids for the thirty shipffs opened on January 20 offerede total of over 1000, 900 for the fleet, but allowing for the various groupings which in cluded the same vessels at the auction thetotal offering represents only $21y- $50, 900 for fifteen ships.
 Opposition of the sale continued in the senate today. Chairman Jones of the commerce committee introducing a resolution to forbid sale of the ves- sels and requiring the shipping board to reft the liners with the earnings of it's other craft.
 President Wilson today worked on his reply to the senate resolution call- ing for information as to whether a secret agreement exists between the Shipping Board and Great Britain over the disposal of the German ships. It will be. an emphatic denial, it is understood. ,ss--
