ty Saturday afternoon when a jitney

at Piedmont and Edgewood avenues.
A whe-el of the jitney was broken
off and the front end battered badly.

the running boards of the JUney, was
declared by witnesses to have been
“some luck.”

BERLIN, May 29.—The German
raply to the note of President
Wilson, whrch was handed to Am
bassador Gerard to-day, expresses
regret for the “unintentional at
tacks on the American steamers
Gulflight and Cushing and offers
to give compensation in any cases
in which Germany shall be found
to be in the wrong.”
The German note says in regard
to the Falaba that the loss of life
was due to the Falaba’s effort to
escape.
Concerning the torpedoing of
the Lua ; tania, the note suggests
that there be an agreement on
facts between the United States
and Germany.
Any matters upon which the
two countries are unable to agree
should be taken up by The Hague
tribunal is one of the suggestions
of the note.

WASHINGTON, May 29.—A pre
llminary report by Lieutenant Tow
ers, the naval attache at the American
Embassy, in London, who investigated
the damage to the American ship Ne
braskan, was given out by the State
Department to-day. Lieutenant Tow
ers reports that the chief engineer
“observed a white streak in the wa
ter perpendicular to the ship on the
starboard side, and a severe shock
was almost immediately felt, followed
by a violent explosion abreast of hold
No. 1.”
This testimony is the first intima
tion of the report that Lieutenant
Towers is convinced that the Ameri
can ship was deliberately torpedoed.
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, May 29.—A warn
ing to American vessels plainly to
mark their neutral character and
brilliantly illuminate such markings
at night while in the war zone about
Great Britain has been suggested by
the German Foreign Office to Am
bassador Gerard in Berlin as a re
sult of the torpedoing of the Gulf-
light. This was announced to-day in
a formal statement by the State De
partment.
Finds Work f° r
Many Thousands
One of the pleasantest facts demonstrated by The
Georgian is the ready way in which it provides competent
help of all kinds for business men, professional men, man
ufacturers and th'e home.
It seldom fails, and it is good to know that those in
search of employment, or those who seek to better them
selves when engaged, look to The Georgian for the assist
ance It renders so effectively and continuously.
The Georgian is the ''Help Wanted" directory of At
lanta.
It has become such through faithful service to em
ployer and employee; which means if you want help—
skilled or unskilled—you have but to phone your ad to M.
100.

DIVE PLAIN
(By International New* Service.)
WASHINGTON, May 29.—A sharp
and unequivocal warning will be
served on both Mexican factions by
President Wilson next Tuesday. His
note will not be an ultimatum, but it
will be clear, and will demand imme
diate compliance.
This was learned from a high offi
cial source to-day. The President al
ready has written his statement, but
will not make it public until it is ap
proved by the Cabinet. It is between
1,200 and 1,500 words in length, and
deals large#'with the threatening sit
uation caused by the confiscation of
food in Mexico.
That conditions In Mexico are much
worse than the Administration is
willing to admit was indicated to-day.
Many thousands of the people are said
to be facing starvation, and relief
measures are imperative.
The movement to aid the starving
may have to be undertaken by the
United States naval and military
forces.
The Administration is apprehensive
of the criticism certain to follow if
anarchy should become general in
Mexico and famine should stalk
through the lane. For weeks there
have been reports of crop shortage
this year which would bring about a
real crisis in the repuolic. The State
Department has been aware of the re
ports, and President Wilson’s appeal
for Red Cross aid and his coming
statement on the Mexican s.tuation is
aimed to forestall criticism.
Foreigners in Mexico also have be
come a source of apprehension, for,
under present conditions, it is almost
impossible to get relief to them. Otfl-
cials deny that pressure for a more
vigorous stand in behalf of foreign
ers has been brought to bear on this
Government by European nations, but
it has been indicated strongly' that
Duval West’s report on conditions in
Mexico showed plainly the necessity
for action by the United Stales.
The radical alteration of the Ad
ministration's Mexican policy became
known following the publication ofun
appeal by President Wilson to the
American people for funds and dona
tions of food with which to succor the
Mexicans.
Concurrently with the issuance of

Austrians Fail to
Checklnvader’sArmy
By BRIXTON D. ALLAIRE.
(Special Correspondent International
News Service.)
ROME, May 29.—All efforts of the
Austrians to check the Italian inva
sion of Trent and Istrla have failed
and the advance continues success
fully at every point.
It is unofficially reported that the
Austrian authorities have left Trieste
and that the city has been abandoned
to the mercy of turbulent mobs.
The Italian forces which occupied
Gradlsa have crpssed the Isonzo River
and are pushing southward toward
Monfalcone. A severe duel along the
heights of the Isonzo demonstrated
the superiority of the Italian guns.
(Storo is seven miles inside of the
Austrian frontier and lies northeast
of Lake Idro. Tremalzo is east of
Storo and lies north of Lake Garda).
Italian artillery which was dragged
to the crests of captured heights on
Austrian soil, have bombarded the
valley of the Fella, wrecking an Aus
trian ammunition train which was on
the way to the front.
Riva, an important Austrian strong
hold at the extreme northern end
of Lake Garda, has been violently
bombarded.
Are Devastating Country.
Austrian troops have retired in the
Austrian provinces of Trentino and
Friuli, devastating the country be
hind them, burning houses and de
stroying crops.
A dispatch from Milan says part of
Trieste was destroyed by fire, s>et by
mobs. The office of the Italian news
paper Hiccolo, in Trieste, was fired as
well as many shops and residences.
The mobs cut off the water supply so
the fires could not be put out.
Italian outposts have been estab
lished on Mount Baldo, 25 miles from
Trent. The Austrian cify at Trent is
plainly visible from the crest, but is
far beyond the range of the Italian
guns.
The Austrian forces in the valley
of the Chiesc* River are falling back.
It was in this region that the Ger
mans were reported to have massed
soldier f»to co-operate with the Aus
trians and Hungarians,
Submarine Is Damaged.
Belated reports of Austro-Italian
naval operations in the Adriatic Sea
early in the week state that an Aus
trian submarine was badly damaged,
and probably destroyed, and that the
Italian torpedo boat destroyer Tur
bine was sent to the bottom by her
own crew off Pola to avoid capture
by the Austrians.
