That the strike in Austria and the peace longing is genuine is undoubted here. American officials knew before they attempted their publicity cam paign that Austria was the weak link in the Teuton chain, and they knew, too that she was under a food and financial strain more terrific than her dominant neighbor. But they pointed out today, America .,.u V.a .aiiAiiB ill.fnimrl.wl thnnrrhts that Austria will immediately drop out of the combat. First, they emphasized that, as pru- Jl.tml in outtf rrl,i v 'u TTnitnH Vri'HR rliri- uav:iuu " jvtnv..,j u - - patches, Teuton domination is already population and that the Austrian prem ier under Germany's thumb has suc ceeded temporarily in quieting much of tho disturbance.

Eight or Nine Months. So it was between eight and nine months after England entered the war that the first fighting uniforms manu factured as a direct result of her enter ing were readv. In three more months a supply sufficient for all needs had been assured. Until March, 1917, the government simply bought at the best price it could, price usually being of less of a eonsid . iifv and srieed. Since then the entire trade has been under government control, from raw wool to made up material. "The chief mistake we made," the general explained, "was in not getting the trade together at the very outset, finding out what each manufacture! could do and telling him to 'do it. Ol conrse, we were handicapped for a long time bv not knowing how much of an armv we could raise. Now that we have eont'rol of the trade all difficulties look comparatively small. Supply Ample Now.

Germany has begun exercise of powerful pressure on Sweden, according to information re eoived here today. The -Cologne Gazette flatly an nounces that if Sweden permits Amer ica to use her tonnage, even in costal traffic "Grmany will consider such action a breach of neutrality." Striking Against War. Zurich, Jan. 23. Austria-Hungary 's strikers are not impelled through economic motives in their tic-np of in dustry, but the "revolutionary move ment" is to prevent prolongation of the war through application of annexa tionist doctrines by the Teutons. The Wiener Neustadt, copies of which were received here today, so quotes a speer-h by the socialist deputy, Renner. The principal cause of the revolu tion." he asserted, "is not dimunition of the bread ration, but the workers aro firm in their resolution to prevent demands for annexation prolonging the war." Advices received today indicated that the strikes had existed through Pilsen, Bruex, Bechenborg, Brunn, Ldnz end other towns in Bohemia and Moravia. One report here was that the Aus trian cabinet had resigned. German Soldiers Are Dejected Says Haigh Waashington, Jan. 23. "German soldiers have lost their 'God Almighty air' and are showing their yellow streak, Captain Richard Haigh of the British army told the senate military affairs committee. Captain Haigh, who has thrice been "over the top" and was twice wounded on the first day of the Somme drive discussed conditions at the front in an informal session of thp committee. Captain Haigh also declared there is very bitter feeling between the Ba varians and Prussians. But he discount ed stories of the general disintegration of German morale. "They're all very tired of war," said Captain Haigh, "but the discip line is wonderful and that holds them to it." Captain Haigh is in this country in charge of a Biitish tank.

Only a few nights ago she called a friend from a theatre and was heard to say, "he says he'll kill me, the crazy fool." There is a strain cf pathos in Johns' letter. "I don't like funerals; just put my body in a box and lav it alongside of hers," he wrote in one letter and the last words in the last letter were: " Boys, beware of women like these. Avoid sorrow like mine." One of tho letters said: ' ' That woman is not worthy to be called a woman. She tried to mako me claim false exemption but I re fused to go that far and decided to end it all this way."
