tUSITANIA CASE
SETTLED, GERMAN
Bernstorff Confers With
Lansing Changes Made
by Berlin Satisfactory
OTHER ISSUES LOOM UP
WASHINGTON. Fell. 1.
"The Lusttnnla Incident la as eood as
settled. I believe that a complete state
ment showlnjf this will be forthcoming
from the State Department next Friday
morning-."
That wna the announcement rnado by
Count Von Bcrnstorff, German Ambassa
dor, at tho conclusion of his conference
with Secretary Lansing today. Ho slated
that Secretary Lansing considered tho
amended nRrcement submitted by Ocr
many as "practically satisfactory," but
that he would have to bIiow It to PresI
dent Wilson and secure his approval be
fore accepting It on behalf of the United
States Government
Count von Bornstorff wns with Sccro
1 tary Lansing for exnetly 11 minutes,
"When ho emerged ho was beaming. Ho
characterized his conforenco as very
pleasant, but explained that ho could not
make any announcement himself other
than that already quoted.
SIMULTANEOUS ANNOUNCEMENT
It Is understood that ono of the reasons
why an Immedlato announcement ennnot
bo made, oven though the President
should approvo the changes In tho docu
ment when It reaches him, Is that tho
Ambassador requested that nny an
nouncement which may bo made shall bo
simultaneous In Germany and tho United
States.
Secretary Lansing said that he prob
ably will sco tho President this afternoon
or tomorrow. Ho declined positively to
comment In any way on tho ambassador's
visit. However, he Indicated by his gen
eral demeanor that ho does not bcllovo
tha thero will bo any further negotia
tions with Berlin.
In addition to dlscdsslng the Luslatnla
situation tho Ambnssnttor took up with
Secretary Lansing tho attitude this Gov
ernment plans to tiiko In connection with
tho question of defining tho status of
armed mcrchantmont. Socrctnry Lansing
very frankly told the Gorman Ambassa
dor that ho Is hopeful that ho will bo
note to secure an agreement whereby nil
of the belligerents can reachc a common
ground on this question.
WILL USE INFLUENCE ON ALLIES.
The United States will continue to press
Its request that tho European belligerents
disarm all merchant ships. Although
President Wilson has reversed Secretary
Lansing's planned policy of acquiescence
In the proposed Teutonic policy that mer
chantmen carrying guns could bo attacked
by submarines without warning tho ques
tion still Is held open. Lansing will con
tinue to endeavor to reach an agreement
with the Entente and Teutonic allies,
which will protect tho Interests of tho
United States.
President Wilson's reversal of tho
proposition to accopt tho proposal that
armed merchantmen bo considered naval
auxiliaries was duo to Colonel E. M.
House. Tho latter cabled the President
yesterday that to reverse the original
policy of this Government permitting
liners to carry guns for defense at tho
present Juncture Would bo very danger
ous. Tho British, House reported, would
consider tho action an unfriendly act. In
addition they would seize upon It as fail
ure by tho United States to Btand on ex
isting International law and use this con
tention to justify nil of their German re
prisal acts, Including mall seizures and
the holding up of ncutrnl trade. Colonel
House, It Is understood, cabled the Presi
dent' that France sympathized with the
'American position on malls and trade,
and strongly urged that no action be,
taken to alienate that sympathy.
Ambassador von Bcrnstorff also took
up with Secretary Lansing tho suppress
ing of reports of the German Admiralty
by United States censors at tho wireless
stations In this country whero they were
received. The Ambassador declared that
several reports of the Admiralty, dealing
with naval operations which were in
tended for tho press In this country, were
held up by the wireless censors. Among
the cases ho cited was the report of the
sinking of tho British cruiser Arabis.
Secretary Lansing promised tiie Ambas
sador that ho would Investigate the mat
ter at once, and find out why the mes
sages were held up.

The War Today
Erzcrum, the great Turkish
stronRholtl in Armenia, of which
it is the capital, has succumbed to
the battering of Grank Duke
Nicholas' Caucasus army.
The Kaiser's plans against Eng
land's Colonial empiro nro thwart
ed and tho way opened for a grand
spring drive through eastern Ar
menia, which might force Turkey
to sue for a separate pence. It will
likewise restore the military pres
tige of Grand Duke Nicholas, who
was tho victim of a bureaucratic
cabat that ended in his deposition
from supreme command of tho
Czar's army and transfer to the
then unimportant Caucasian field
of wnr.
Violent artillery battles followed
by infnntry assaults arc reported
on the Dvinn and Iliga fronts,
where Pctrograd claims advantage.
Now British troops nre making
desperate efforts to regain tho po
sitions southeast of Yprcs, which
wcro captured by the Germans, but
so far have failed. There secmB to
be a lull in the German offensive,
which has resulted in gains in
Flanders, Artois, Champagne and
Alsace,
Berlin reports that counter-attacks
by the British and French at
several points were repulsed.
EEZERUM FALLS
BEFORE ASSAULT
OF CZAjTS GUNS
Slavs Batter Way Into
Turks' Stronghold in Ar
menian Zone
9 FORTS WON BY BAYONET
PETnOOnAD, Feb. 16.
Erzerum, tho stronsest Turkish fortress
In eastern Asia Minor, waa captured by
Russian troops last night.
The great fortress of Erzerum, the bul
wark that stopped Russian Invasion of
Armenia, of which It Ib the capital, In all
provlous war, ha9 been for a couple of
months besieged by tho Caucasus army
of Orand Duke Nicholas.
An official statement early today re
ported that nine of Erzcrum'a forts were
already In Russlnn hands. They were
stormed and taken at tho point of the
bayonet In a fierce strugRlo up the moun
tain sides In zero weather. Later tho
stronghold succumbed.
A Turkish garrison of 160,000 was re
ported gathered Insldo the walls of Erze
rum. Occupation of tho forts nnd tho capture
of this force means n greater triumph to
Russian arms than tho capture of Prze
mysl, Jn Gallcla. Erzerum's fall will
probably pave tho way for a great spring
advance by tho Grand Duke'a army
through eastern Armenia and perhaps
force Turkey to suo for peace.
Capture of Erzerum will also mnn a
lestoratlon of Grand Duko Nicholas, for
merly tho Czar's generalissimo.
Erzerum la one of the most strongly
fortified positions In tho East. Even the
most optimistic military critics hardly ex
pected Its capture until several weeks
more of heavy artillery battering and In
fantry fighting.
Three years ago the city was defended
-by six great forts nlong the eastern out
skirts, but others havo been bunt slnco
tho outbreak of the war.
The city lt.slf, wltx a population of
about 40.000, lies at tho end of a valley
on a high plain. It U nurrounded by a
stono wall, built by the Turks three cen
turies ago. A high mountain ridge out
side the wall and on tho eastern border
of the city protects Erzerum from attack
from tho direction of the Russian Cau
casus. Tho strongest forts were con
structed along this side. At each end Is
a high peak, making Hanking attacks out
of question nnd forcing tho attacking army
to make a frontal assault under tho great
est of difficulties.

tion bo issued restraining tho Involved
ofllclala from disposing of nny of its as
sets or business to tho Fidelity nnd Cas

THOUGH automobile
manufacturers have al

brands to choose from,
and though they could "save"
money by selecting one of
many other tires, they give
overwhelming preference to
Goodyear.
This is shown by the fact that one
in every three cars manufactured for
1916 will be Goodyear equipped.
What else can this mean except that
motor car manufacturers have found,
and individual tire buyers have found,
that Goodyear Tires go farther and
last longer and so cost less?
