Ambassador Morgenthau at Gon- atantlnopli haa been twice appealed to by Secretary llryan in the last few days to urge the Turkish government to send protection to the Imperiled section, and it was learned that the State department had received definite assurances from the Turkish govern ment that protection would be rushed to the scene. It was learned through the British embassy that the British cunsul to Tabris, Persia, not far from the Uru- miah district, acting In conjunction with the American consul, Gordon Paddock, hail appealed to Kuasian com manders in the region near Tiflis to send soldiers to the rescue of the help less Christian populace. The Russian generals, it was said, had delayed ac tion awaiting orders from Petrograd. In view o f the present efforts of the American government to have Turkish troops sent to the region it was re garded here as probable that no fur ther effort would be made to get aid from the Russian soldiery. U. S. SUBMARINE F-4 IS LOCATED 300 FEET DOWN Honolulu, T. H. — United States sub marine F-4, which failed to come to the surface Thursday, still lay on the ocean floor disabled late Friday, while 300 feet above her a score of vessels combined in a strenuous effort to brnig her to the surface. When the rabies o f the naval tug Navajo first made fast to the heavy mass which afterward proved to be F-4, it was thought possible to tow her to shoal water, where it would be an easy matter to raise her. Shortly before 6 p. m., however, this plan was discarded, owing to the slowness of towing o|>erations. An aerogram was sent to the naval tender Alert, which is equipped with heavy cranes and tackle adapted to the work of rescue. The Alert arrived at the scene of operations before dark and then began the final stage of the work which offi cials declared would result in the rais ing of the disabled submarine. At 8 p. m. the inter-island steamer Claudine left Pearl Harbor naval sta tion towing the dredger California, which was loaded with heavy chains and other material, to be used in rais ing the submerged craft. Meanwhile the tugs were holding fast to the submarine, whose position had remained unchanged. Germany Renew8 Efforts to Satisfy Ita ly ’s Demands Rome — Efforts to effect an adjust ment of the differences between Italy and Austria are being continued per tinaciously by Prince von Huelow, the German ambassador, notwithstanding the almost insurmountable obstacles he has encountered. Authoritative information has been obtained that the prince is now en deavoring to present the matter in a somewhat different and more compre hensive way. He seeks to convince Italy and Austria that they should not disregard the broader questions o f pol icy and mutual self-interest on account of possible misunderstandings of the moment. Prince von Buelow haa expressed the opinion that the matters now un der discussion cannot be limited in their application to the present, hut will have a far-reaching effect on the future of both nations.

The scum that forms when the beets are boiled, and which has heretofore been thrown away, con sists largely of carbonate of lime and water, and from 70.000 tons of beets treated 4,000 tons of carbonate lime Is obtained: to this 1.100 tons of clay is added, the resulting product being 3.162 tons of excellent cement. The scum is pumped into large tanks, where it is allowed to dry partially. Finely divided clay Is then mixed with It; the mixture is thoroughly amal gamated by beaters for an hour and burned In a rotary kiln. The clinker Is then removed and pulverized into cement.
