i
Washington, Dec. 13.? Austria- |
iungary's reply to the American S
lote on the sinking of the Itailan .
teamship Ancona is looked for by I
he end of this week. This expec g
ation was expressed today after
Jaron Erich Zwiedinek, charge of
he Austro-Hungarian embassy, had |
onfered with Secretary Lansing re
;arding the note and attempted, it \
yas understood to gain informally |
or the information of his govern- g
nent an understanding of what !
vould satisfy the United States. I
The charge it was said did not in- f
[icate what the action of Austria
lungary might be, explaining that
ie had not heard from the foreign |
ffice upon the subject. s
Much attention has been attracted J
n official and diplomatic circles by |
hat portion of the note which re
erred to "the acquiescence of Ger- |
nany" in the attitude of the United
States toward use of submarines in
ttacking vessels of commerce. This eference
served to accelerate spec- (
lation as to what effect a satisfac- J
ory or an unsatisfactory answer to
he note would have upon the nego- I
iations between the United States ?
nd Germany regarding the Ameri- ?
an lives lost on the Lusitania. j*
Detailed information will be |
waited by the State department be- v
ore any action is taken regarding ?
