STRIKERS COMPROMISE IN
IN YOUNGSTOWN EIGHT
YOUNGSTOWN, O., Jan. 12.—The
strike of the Youngtown Steel Tube
works has been settled. The diffi
culties were submitted to a hoard of
arbitration which compromised in a
slight raise in wages.
Mediator Prod Crofton chosen by
the strikers makes tonight the an
nouncement that a settlement has
been reached and that the strike is
ended.
There is little disposition to press
serious charges against any of the
arrested men and the company
seems disposed also to get rid of the
men employed as guards as quickly
as possible.
A good many of the workers are
dissatisfied at tho terms agreed
upon, and this may lerxi to another
strike later on.

Austria disclaims any knowledge of
the Persia sinking; Claims it was
not done by an Austrian under sea
boat; that no under sea boat sank
any steamer carrying passengers
without giving warning.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Jan. 12.—
The officials of the P. and O. liner
Persia do not blame an Austrian
submarine for the sinking. Its cause
is not known, and the company says
it may have been due to an internal
explosloh. While many stories have
been published' indicating that both
the submarine and the torpedo were
seen, the company has, been unable
to authenticate any one of these ac
counts by eye witnesses’* statement
and declines to hold any submarine
responsible.
In riew of this, alleged to have
been a report sent from London, ac
cording to a Reuter telegram the
United States government will not
press for an Investigation In all
probability.
VIENNA Jan. 12.—The Austrian
government frankly Is at a loss in

that no dfllcial report of the sinking

ROOSEVELT THE CHOICE
SAYS PERKINS
CHICAGO, Jan. 12.— Perkins
speaking for the Progressive party
says that unity is up to the republi
cans. It is for them to say. It
depends upon the republican nation
al committee whether or not they
return to the old party.
“Our choice for president is
Roosevelt”, said Perkins in an in
terview in the Chicago Tribune,
“first, last and all the time, for thf
nomination. If a man acceptable
to our principles is nominated we
will certainly support him. We all
re-afllrm the principles which we
supported at the last eloction ana
many if not all have been accepten
now by the republican party.
There is going to be n6 reaction
ary control if we are to unite, but
we* will state that in addition to
the platform upon which we Btoo:l
last election we will support pre
paredness, woman suffrage, the bud
get system of government finance,
the building up of an American mer
cantile marine and an aggressive
Mexican policy which will make no
American ashamed that he is an
American, and which will assuro
him of protection no matter where
he may he, as an American citizen”.
NEW YORK, Jan. 12.—Perkins
remarks relative to unity have
boosted the Roosevelt stock, for the
nomination two hundred per cent.
It will be either Wilson or Roose
velt, now says popular opinion in
this city and this is reflected in
many newspapers.
REPORTED CROWN PRINCE RE
REGENT WHILE KAISER ILL
ROME, Jan. 12.—It 1b reported
through Swiss sources that the Kai
ser’s Illness Is so serious that the
gravity of his sickness cannot any
longer be concealed. The same dis
patch says that the Crown Prince
will assume the regency during the
critical illness of his father. Berlin
dispatches Indicate uneasiness over
the situation.
AMSTERDAM, Jan. 12.—Pordites
would not consider a resolution of
condolence with the Kaiser during
his Illness. One of tho delegates
In reply to the Introducer of the
resolution termed It "too raw”.
COPENHAGEN, Jan. 12.—The
arrost of socialists who have bee i
promoting a peace agitation is con
firmed. By an Imperial order peace
discussions cannot bo carried on in
eithor the German newspapers or on
the platform nor can anything be
published without tho government s
consent.
The peace discussions, the Ger
mans claim, have done no end' ot
harm to a real peace movoment aa
they conveyed to the Allies and
neutrals the idea that Germany was
preparing to quit fighting while no
thing could be farther from the
case. “Everyone is anxious for
peace, that is admitted, but it must
be a peace with honor and it must
come from the onemles of the
Fatherland”. All agitation is being
ruthlessly put down by the author
ities although all admit weariness
with the war.
