Indications Are He Over shot Nanuk in Fog
 Crashed, Mountain
AVIATOR CIRCLED
 OVER REINDEER CAMPS
Perhaps Was Trying to Re turn to Teller Where
 Weather Was Clear

NOME, Alaska, Jan. 2S.- The fact that Eielson's plane was 90 miles east oF the schooner Nanuk and 10 miles from the coast, indicates Col. Carl Ben Eielson oversh0t the Nanuk in fog, on his second trip to the frozen-in craft from Nome, and circled over the reindeer camps, p miles south of the Nanuk, while en- deavCring to find a place to land.
 Finding no landing place, Col. Eielson continued to retrace in the direction from which he came.
 The plane was heard by a Rus sian not over 50 miles from the Nanuk, going westward. Evidently Col. Eielson endeavorcd to fly back towards East Cape and probably intended to reach Teller where it was clear when he left on the morning of November g.
 Evidently Col. Eielson hit the side of mountain, with the wind, which caused the wreck, which is rot many miles from small vil- lafe, half way between Takakoko- gen and Cape Wankanem.

Announcement Is Made at Naval Conference
 Tn London
TONNAGE COMPROMISE
 NOW BELIEVED NEAR
Proposals of Italian Parity Is Discussed by
 Delegations

LONDON, Jan. 28.-As the Naval Powers moved toward a compro- mise on two of their most trouble some problems, physical methods of limiting fleets and Italy's demand for parity with France, Great Bri- tain made new gesture in faith Of the Conference and success by an- ncuncing that construction of two of her newest cruisers has been cancelled
 The British announcement coin cided with the meeting of the Big Five" and Downing Street, at which further program has been made toward a compromise on tonnage plan designated to settle the perennial argument on this tech nical phase of naval limitation.
 Parity Solution
 At the same time it was disclosed that serious consideratlon has been given by several delegations to the proposals of Italy for parity and the solution of this problem, was to meet this by a treaty declara- tion in which all powers join for sovereign rights, that every nation build an adequate fleet fully recog- nized, but the signatories voluntar- fly agree not to exceed certain con- struction programs between now and 1886.
 Cruiser work has also been can celled at Surry and Northumber- land, it is announced. It was stated that work on ships was never actually started.
 Tonnage Proposals
 At todays Naval Conference ses- sion the French tonnage proposals were put ahead in the agenda but the Italian counter proposals will also be given their day at the next open session of the full Conference on Thursday
 Invoking the alphabet procedure, the Conference, m citing in St. James Palace, decided to call the roll of nations, thus giving France right-of-way over her Italian neigh bor
 France will present her proposal to limit fleets as whole but not in separate categories.
 Great Britain will reiterate brief ly preference for the category regulation. Italy will then make her plea for actual relativity of fleets and this to be decided be- fore all else
 The United States and Japan have nothing to propose on this general phase of the discussions.
