Doubt still shroud ed today events surrounding the Aus trian torpedoing of the llnlian liner An conn, though both Austria nod Italy hud presented their versions of the af fair. Austria maintained warning was giv en the liner anil sufficient time to de bark her passengers. She denied that she had shelled departing lifeboats. Italy, on the other liiiud, claimed the subiuarfine fired at the Ancona with out warning, and continued this course even to the extent of killing or wound ing passengers who sought refuge in the lifeboats. The submarine crew jeered at these panic stricken refugees, it was added. At the same limo, the Home emigrant office gave figures to clear up the con flicting stories ns to disunities, saying nine out of 10 Americans aboard perish ed, and that only 20!) persons of n total of B07 nboard were saved. Austria said tho Ancona tried to es cape at full speed, that a warning shot was fired across her bows, nud that she halted only after several shells had been fired at her. Then she was given 115 minutes lo remove her pusscngors and crew. Only when tho submarine sighted another vessel coining up did she hurl tho final torpedo. Many lifeboats, said the Austrian statement, remained unnrcupiod. While crew members crowded into those that went overboard passengers jioro in panic on the decks. Tho rrew was blamed for loss of life. The Ancona was some limo in sink ing. Officials here saw in the incident somewhat of IV pnrallel to the torpedo ing of the liner Fnluhn. In that ense, Germany pleaded that her commander sunk the vessel because he believed she was wirelessing for nid, though ho had given time for most of her passengers and crew to go overboard. Homo declared emphatically that the shelling of tho Anconn persisted, and that shots were directed not only nt the These Long f Underwear for Women DISPLAY OF QUALITY Atf. ! wirelss apparatus but likewise at the decks und I molly at the lifeboats. it was denied that 1 lie vessel onr riod contraband or persons subject to military service. " Mendacious inventions," was Aus tria's term for newspaper reports that her submarine continued to shell the liner and her lifeboats. Getting Now Evidence. By Bond P. Geddcs. Washington, Nov. 15. The adminis tration fined today, apparently, the problem of getting new evidence of its own concerning the torpedoing of the Italian liner Ancona with loss of Amer ican lives. Austrian and Italian versions of the affair conflicted. Austria claim oil it followed international law in its procedure; Italy did not hold this view. In view of Austria's acceptance of responsibility, however, the suggestion that (ierinuuy was tho real offender was swept away. The administration, however, is re signed to delay ia determining the ex act facts, believing that Ambassador l'ago at Homo anil IVnfield nt Vienna will get at the true state of affairs in time. The interpretation of what is suf ficient time for passengers to leave a ship about to bo torpedoed furnished a new nnd knotty problem. Hitherto, this question had not appeared. Austria maintained that 45 minutes was suf ficient, time for passengers to disem bark. Moreover, there was more time after the vessel had been torpedoed, before she sank. Survivors Number 232. Washington, Nov. 15. Ambassador Hharpe at Paris reported to tho state department today that 2.12 persons sur vived tho torpedoing of the Italian liner Anconn by nn Austrian submarine. He rolutod'no cireuinnstances of the at tack. Sharpo's report was based on n bul letin issued by tho ministry of mnrilie on information from Di.ertn. He stated that Ml survivors arrived at Sisi, in eluding one woman. ft sjt 4 BORN lie Bl'BSAOK To Mr. nnd Mrs. Eli M.
