er squadron comprising the Varese,
Francesco Fcrruchlo, Giuseppe Gari

Poring the course of the operations
the Italian commander discovered
that a number of Austrian battleships
had taken refuge In the harbor.
These, although not of modern type,
would have been able effectively to
lace the somewhat slower Italian
squadron, hence the Italian cruisers
retired.
As tho cruisers were withdrawing,
Austrian submarines were sent out to
attack them. According to the official
report, the Giuseppe Garibaldi was
able to avoid the first attack, but in

torpedo and sunk. The crew Jumped

they were attacked by enemy subma
rines and the cruiser Giuseppe Garrl

ident In private conference an hour.
While preparing America's reiteration
of her demands that the rights of Am.

Lansing began an investigation of the
attack on the liner Orduna.
It has been believed that while Ger.
many has withheld compliance with
the first demands made by the gov,
ernment. following the sinking of the
Lusitania. they were being observed
in practice Jn that passenger carrying
ships were not to be attacked without
warning. The selling of the Orduna
has consequently upset all theories In
this respect. Members of the cabinet
refused to discuss the situation fol
