ITALY i PRAISED IN GEfiMANY i "Kingdom's Allies" Said to , Realize Coming Part in !fe European Settlement. t i GOVERNMENT IS UPHELD Deputies at Rome Pass Vote of Con fidence, 4 IS to. 49 Sending of ' Von Flotow as Ambassador Causes Wide Comment. . i I' BERLIN, Dec 5. Commentln on ; the declaration of Premier Salandra In tthe Italian Chamber of Deputies, the Norddeutsche Allgexneine Zeitung says I that Italy's attitude in reserving for herself the right to take a hand in the 7 political readjustment of Europe, so far as her own interests are involved, J should make a great impression in Europe. ; "Premier Salandra made It dear," ; ays the newspaper, "that Italy's neu trality Is self-impose;! and voluntary ton her part. For thiJ reason Italy has Ireserved the right t. act independently. Ibhould developments threaten her po sition as a world power through in tended territorial gains, then her pol icy of aloofness, maintained up to the Tpvesent time, would no longer be ; binding. i X 'Friends Wot Surprised. I "For the friends and allies of Italy," ;the Allgemeine Zeitung continues, "this ; announcement comes as no surprise. Italy's allies realize fully that the J Italian Kingdom could not be exclud I ed from a European settlement." I ROME, Dec. 4. The Italian Chamber X today passed a vote of confidence in ; its government, 413 to 49. ; Formal announcement that Prince t Bernard von. Buelow, former Chancellor of the German Empire, had been placed f at the head of the German Embassy J here, while the present Ambassador, Herr von Flotow is to be absent three m months on account of his health, has j aroused much Interested comment in J Home. I Although this move has been re ; ported as probable for some time, it I has produced a sensation. It Is con ' sidered remarable that a former chan i cellor should become the head of an embassy, which is by no means the ; moBt important in the German diplo I matic service. J Move Regarded mm German Answer. ; The appointment was discussed with - animation in Italian political circles I today. Some statesmen declared It to be Germany's answer to the declara j tion of Premier Salandra to the Italian j Parliament Thursday that there was ; no clause in any treaty binding Italy j to participate with the Teuton allies i In the present conflict, and that Italy Z would maintain her present attitude of watchful and armed neutrality, while I others recalled that Prince von Buelow had been most popular in Rome since he was Ambassador to the Quirinal 20 ; years ago. and that his wife belongs j to a prominent Italian family. j . Many observers are of opinion the 5 appointment" of Prince von Buelow to Z this post means Berlin Is about to Z exercise strong -pressure to prevent ; Italy from passing to the side of the I allies. j TOLL RATE TO BE TALKED County Asked to Fix Prices for Use of Harrlman Bridge. Z A petition presented to the County Commissioners yesterday by the O.-W. ; R. & N.

Passengers on the steamship said that more than 300 mines were reported to have floated in on the shores of Hol land during the two weeks previous to ; their departure. British warships of American cargoes aa provisional contraband. Count von Keventlow says: if England and France are willing to favor the United States aa much as possible without departing from their policy or starring Germany at the ex pense or small neutral nations, the reason is that both countries have ordered many million dollars' worth of war materials in the United States, and that American industry is working xaniy io supply tne wants of both tnese warring nations, from woolen covers, shoes and horseshoes up to col lapsible submarines. a suDmarine transported In parts. wunuus -o me trans-Atlantic view point, does not constitute contraband of war, nor does the fabrication there of for the use of belligerents amount 10 a Dreacn or neutrality.
