SIR EDWARD GREY IN ANSWER TO U. S. NOTE PLEADS RIGHT TO SEARCH. : U. S. FIGURES ARE DISPUTED America’s Contention on Ship Seiz ure Admitted Just, But Declared Dif ficult in Practice—Secretary Bryan . Awaits Full Answer. " Washington, Jan. 12.—Great Brit ain’s preliminary reply to the note from the Un .ted States government re questing an improvement in the treat ment of American commerce by the British fleet was made public here and in London on Sunday by mutual agreement between the state depart ment and the British foreign office. The British communication concurs in the view of the United States that commerce between neutral nations should be interfered with only when imperatively necessary, and officials of the Washington governmeut con strued it as conceding that the princi ples expressed by the American note were just and upheld by the previous ly accepted usages of international law. : The only formal comment m=de was contained in a brief statement issued by Secretary Bryan, who said: “This answer being preliminary and not being intended ;% a complete re ply, we will postpone comment until the full answer is received.” Briefly, the British note, while con ceding the principles of the American government’s contentions, points out difficulties in actual practice, refers to alleged fraudulent practices by ship pers and cites statistics showing an increase rather than a decrease, in certain neutral commerce, in support of Great Britain’s suspicions that Ger many and Austria have been indirectly obtaining contraband through neutral countries. The note promises, how ever, that Great Britain will “make redress” whenever the action of the British fleet “may unintentionally ex ceed” the limits of international law. While they are generally reserved in their comments it may be stated au thoritatively that high officials of the United States government regard the tone of the note as entirely friendly and believe, moreover, that the dis cussion which will follow it will be carried on in the same vein, with a desire on the part of both countries to reach a satisfactory understanding. The admission by Great Britain of one of the chief points in the American note—that the relations between neu trals were those of normal times, of peace and not of war—was gratifying to officials, who believed that the con troversy would now revolve itself into a frank discussion of what were the actual necessities of the case which impel interference by a belligerent when suspecting that the ultimate des tination of a neutral cargo is belliger ent territory. The statistics brought forth to show that cormmerce between the United States and neutral countries contigua ous to Germany and Austria had in creased materially since the outbreak of the war were regarded here as mis leading. It was pointed out that in view of the breaking down of the nor mal routes of commerce with Germany and Austria many noncontraband products had been shipped through neutral countriés. Similarly, the neu tral countries which previously had obtained much of their supplies from belligerents were now importing. As to the increase in shipments of copper to Italy it was pointed out that the Italian ambassador here already had explained that Italy, which had previously obtained copper from Ger many and Austria for her manufac tures, now was forced to import from the United States, because of the em bargo on exportation which the bellig erents themselves had imposed. The American government contends, more over, that if some copper has reached the belligerents through neutral coun tries it is the duty of the British to make more effective arrangements with those neutral countries. The admission of Great Britain that as to foodstuffs and conditional con traband, Lord Salisbury’s doctrine, quoted in the American note, would be followed in practice by the British, foodstuffs being held up only when destined to an enemy force, also was pleasing to American officials. There is every reason to believe that the United States will not accept the view of Great Britain that cargoes must be taken into port for extended examination. @ While statistics ad vanced show that only 45 cargoes out of 773 have actually reached the prize courts, officials here note that no mention is made in the British note of the great number of American car goes detained and subsequently re leased. It was not the loss already suffered by American commerce which brought forth the American note, but the desire to prevent commerce in the future from being mistreated. Turk General Wounded.

CANDIDACY HINT .IN PRESi- DENT’S SPEECH. Defends Mexican Policy and Party . Record on Currency and Tariff— Lets Public Judge Acts. Indianapolis, Jan. 11.—President Wilson on Friday voiced what a crowd of more than 4,000 people assembled here to hear him make a Jackson day speech interpreted as a hint that he might be a candidate for the presi dency again in 1916. The people leaped to their feet and cheered until the president himself raised his hand and called for quiet. The president had been discussing the Mexican question, and referred to his belief that he knew the tempera ment and principle of the American people, adding that he would not be fit to stay where he was if he did not understand them. “There may come a time,” he went on, “when the American people will have to judge whether I know what I am talking about or not.” There was a slight pause, and then the crowd, which included the mem bers of the Indiana legislature, jumped up and began shouting and cheering. Realizing the construction which had been put on his words, the president held up his hand for silence, and said: “l did not mean to stir up any thing. That was merely preparatory to saying that for at least two more years I am free to think I know the American people.” Previously the president had at tacked the Republican party, defended the record of his' administration on the Mexican policy and the tariff and currency questions and declared that a careful examination of the returns from the elections last November showed that if it had been a presiden tial year a Democrat would have had a majority of about eighty in the elec toral college.

Berlin (via wireless to Sayville), Jan. 13.—The dreadnaught Courbet, one of France’s only four warships of this class, lies' at the bottom of the Mediterranean after an attack by the Austrian submarine No. 12. The war office issued an official statement tell ing of the victory on Mdnday. The Courbet had a complement of 998 men, all of whom are believed to have gone down with the ship. After the attack by the submarine, the dreadnaught’s sister ship, the Jean Bart, tried to tow her to port, and during her maneuvering the Jean Bart rammed the Courbet. With her com partments already filled by the blow from the torpedo, the huge vessel could not withstand the added blow, and sank.. News of the sinking of the Cour bet came in the following statement given out on Monday by the official press bureau: “Vienna reports state that it has been ascertained that the French dreadnaught Courbet was hit by the Austrian submarine No. 12. The Cour bet was rammed by her sister ship, the Jean Bart, which was attempting to tow her. The Courbet sank. The Jean Bart afterward docked at Malta. The French pretend that only the Jean Bart was slightly damaged, concealing the loss of,the Courbet.” While no date or locality was men tioned in the official statement, it is believed here. that the engagement was that which took place on Decem ber 21 in the Otranto channel, east of the “heel” of Italy. ; ALSACE BATTLES ARE FIERCE Fight Has Been Raging Ten Days on Hills and in the : Valleys.

CIVILIZATION IS AT STAKE Chief of the German General Staff Says Germany, Not England, Fighting for Peace. Berlin, Jan. 12.—“1n this war not only Germany’s existence, but also Eu ropean civilization is at stake. “This war means to England noth ing but the extermination of our ship ping, commerce and industry. She simply wants our trade for herself. Her pretext is to free the people of Europe from the so-called ‘German militarism.” ” These striking statements were made to your correspondent by Gen. Helmuth Johannes Ludwig von Moltke, chief of the German general staft. “It is this very militarism which has kept the peace of Europe for the past 43 years. Russia and France, who promptly consented to enter Great Britain’s service, now shed their blood for British ‘maritimima,” which is apt to reduce these countries also to a state of servitude under the Brit ish arbitrium mundi. “Consequently, and as a matter of fact, Germany, not England, is striving for the liberty of the nations.” ROOSEVELT ON TAFT TRAIN Former Presidents, in Different Cars, Escape Meeting on Way From New Haven.

The bungalow type of architecture is growing in popularity in all parts of the country. In the warmer sections bungalows are built without cellars or attics and with little pitch to the roofs. In the North more elaborate houses of the same type are being built every year because they look pretty and the principal living rooms are all on one floor, which reduces the labor of housekeeping. Bungalows are larger on the ground than two-story houses, and the roofs generally have the appearance of be ing quite flat.

The manner of raising the peak and building a steeper roof for this particular purpose is shown in this design. Another feature noticed in this northern bungalow type of house is the raising of the house sufficiently to get a good cellar with sufficient head room-to set a warm air furnace. Bun galow cellars are larger than two story house cellars and may be made to provide a great deal of valuable storage by running a partition across to separate the cellar proper from the furnace room and laundry. When a house like this is built in the North the owner usually has in mind the old-fashioned way of stor ing fruit and vegetables in a cold cel lar for use in the winter time.

It makes a great saving in expense and there is a great deal of satisfaction in having quanti ties of the best the land produces with in easy reach of the kitchen. This particular plan provides for a laundry under the bathroom, with a cold storage under the kitchen. It is easy to conirol the temperature in a cellar under the wing of a house that is exposed on three sides when it is clear away from the influence of the furnace pipes.
