LONDON. March 1. The vote ot
credit asked by the government, the
largest ever 'put before the house,
was adopted unanimously.
LONDON, March 1. The estab
lishment of a virtual blockade of hos
tile countries Is Britain's reply to
Germany's attacks on merchant ship
ping, as announced officially today
by Premier Asquith in a momentous
speech In the House of Commons.
Tho plan of the allied government for
tlie regulation of shipping to snd from
ports of hostile natlona contemplates the
prevention of commodities of every kind
'reaching or leaving those ports, without,
however, involving risks of neutral ves-
aels or their crews. Tho allies will hold
themselves at liberty to capture goods
presumed to have como from hostile
. countries or deemed to be destined for
(hem. They have no Intention, however,
of confiscating ships or cargoes which
' are detained, unless they are liable to
confiscation under normal conditions of
war.
The premier revealed these measures
of reprisals to Parliament and the na
tion on Introducing the third and fourth
votes for credit to meet the expenses of
' the war. These are, respectively, $1S5,
030,000 to balance the expenditures of the
current fiscal year, making the total
rosts of eight months of war $l,810.00O.0no,
and another vte of tl.2m.000 as the first
installment tor the year opening April 1.
- Germans t ailed Pirate.
- Referring to the German naval cam
paign against British shipping. Premier
Aso,ulth declared that Germany had vio
lated systematically all the conventions
intended for the mitigation, of warfare.
It had taken further steps, the premier
said, . by organising "an under-sea cam
paign of piracy and pillage." Germany,
he declared, waa not blockading and
could never blockade English shores.
Referring to what he termed whispers
of pears, Mr. Asquith said It waa not time
. to talk of peace; that this time would
arrive "or1.? when' the great purpose-of
the allies are in sight of accomplishment.-'
v
The premier pointed out that en April.
1 the war would harve lasted 240 days,
with an average expenditure of 1.510,000
(S7.vu0.000) daily. After, making full allow
ance for all items not in the nature of re
coverable loans, tho dally expenditure
would not work out less than 1,300.000.
Ti:e total amount raised under votes for
credit during the current financial year
i3S?,O00,0uo represented broadly the dif
ference In expenditures on a peace and a
war footing.
Cash AdTeaed to Allies.
ji m toiai tM.wu.wo represented ad
vances for war expenditures of the do
minions and the crown colonies. In addi
tion to which" there has been advanced
10.000,000 to Belgium and 800,000 t 3er
bit. .
"further advances to these allies are In
contemplation." the premier continued.
,'It is probably within the mark to aay
that by. April 1 we shall bo spending
loughly 3,009,000 dally abova the normal."
The credit for 260,000,000 Is the laraest
single vote ever put before the House.
It will cover the period to the second
week of July. ,

(From a Staff Corresponrlont
LINCOLN, March 1. (Special.)
The attempt of the democratic ma
jority of the house to throttle the
repulbicans who were loaded for the
debate on the Lanfgan resolution
calling on the railroad commission
to be "amenable" to the attorney
general was successful this afternoon
when a motion by Lanigan to cut

This Is the first step toward severing
tho amicable relation under which both
republicans und democrats have labored
so far this session In an effort to bring
about legislation beneflrlrfl to the state.
When Lanigan of Greeley sent up his
resolution last, Friday, which was a veiled
attack upon the railway commission, and
then attempted to deprive the republican
minority of tho opportunity to dlscnss the
question. Floor Leader Mockotl of tho re
publican minority served notice upon the
majority If they wanted to stsrt such
proceedings they would find the repub
licans wining to meet them and pay
them In' the same coin. '
Fear Republican Attack.
It was evident today that Lanigan and
his friends feared the attack which the
republicans had prepared, and the only
way to top it was to prevent them from
speaking at any length upon the subject.
The five-mtnute limit for speeches was
practically f topping all debate, as not
one of the speakers could begin to enter
a debate, restricted as it was. and upon

Remarkable Photograph Showing
End of a Battle of Dreadnoughts
The most remarks hie .photon i a ph In the
history of the world was mado during the
last moments of the doomed Genuian
cruiser Bluecher. Just a few minutes be
fore it completely capslsed and sank fol
lowing the first battle between dread-
naughts.
Despite the fact that German dirigibles
hovrred overhead, dropping bombs, the
British cruiser Arethusa stood by to res
cue such of the crew as might be found
floating In tho water after the Arethuaa
had fhed the torpedo which settled the
Bleuchor's fate. Ilavlni; converted the
great cruiser Into a floating mass of Junk,
Its decks an Inferno, the British battle
cruisers left It to the "mosquito" fleet and
continued the pursuit of the other Oer
man battle cruisers which, had been
caught In the North Sea! evidently bent
upon another raid upon the English coast.
The photograph of the dying Bluecher
was made by an officer from the deck
of the Arethusa a few seconds after that
vessel had discharged the fatal torpedo.
With hundreds of its heroic creV dead
and wounded, while hundreds more calmly
faced death, the Bluecher after floating
for a brief time on its' side, keel out of
water, turned deliberately over. For a
space of perhaps ten minutes It floated
keel up, while several of Its crew ran
along the bottom of the vessel, and then
disappeared from sight.

who were discontented with the
party's policy, according to special
dispatches from Bucharest, that he
had not attacked the government, be
cause J. J. C. Bratlano, former pre
mier and minister of the interior, had
concluded a formal agreement for
common action with the triple en
tente powers (Great Britain, France
and Russia). Proof of this would be
found, Joneacue said, in the Rou
manian loan made in London, which
It would have been impossible -to ar
range If the Bucharest cabinet had
not made a categorial statement of
Its position.
A Bucharest newspaper has announced
that ten classes' of reserves have been
called out for March 13, and that senior
students In the military colleges have
been drafted Into the regular army with
the rank -of noncommissioned officers.
Confident belief has been expressed In
England, France and Russia that Rou
mania eventually would enter the war
on the side of the allies. A dispatch
from Pari on February 34 said the
Matin's Bucharest correspondent, had ob
tained Information that Nicholas Mlsu,
Roumanian minister to London,, soon
would return to England with a note as
suring the British government that the
Roumanian army would take the field In
April.
An agreement was signed In London on

KAISER'S ANSWER
IS A MODIFIED ONE
Germany's Reply to United States
Asserted by Foreign Office to Be
Partially an Acceptance.
HANDED AMBASSADOR GERARD
BERLIN, (via London). March 1.
Germany's reply to the American
note concerning the naval war sone
was handed today to Ambassador
Gerard. It corresponds in general
with the forecast of some days ago.
The foreign office characterizes
the German reply as "acceptance
with modifications" of the American
proposals.
The reply suggests that, in ac
cordance with the principles of in
ternational law, the importation
should be permitted not only of food'
stuffs, but also of such raw ma
tertals a are urgently necessary for
the peaceful civilian population.
The American note and the Ger
