Chicage March 9.- again arisen in the ran of the Na- tional Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution and, a the storm centres around the on- al President of the organization, Mrs. William Cumming Story Mrs. Wiliiam T. Block of this city, today issued a circular letter, in which she assails Mrs. Story, for having blocked the payment of a bill for $8,000 owing the firm of J. E. Cald- & Co., of Philadelphia. Mr: Block, who is chairman of the So- ciety’s National Committee of Liquida- tion and Endowment Fund, the aim of which is to pay off the debt on Memorial Continental Hall, also ac- cuses Mrs. Story of ‘playing politics.” Mrs. Block is the originator of the plan to raise the necessary funds through the sale of certificates of des- cent on the “penny a day” plan. Be- fore selling the certicates it was nec- essary to have them engraved and a printing bill _of something like $8,000 was incurred some three years ago. Th Mrs. Block charges, is not yet paid, The reason for this opposition Mrs. Blcek charges, is because of a rumor that Mrs. Block was to become a candidate for National Treasurer on a ticket, headed by Mrs. Guernsey. ARE ARRANGING FOR EXPORT OF COPPER Producers Enter Into Tentative Agree- ment with British Government. Discord has New York, March 30.—Several of the largest copper producers and ex- porters have entered into a tentative agreement with the British govern- ment, subject to the approval of the state department at Washington, which provides for future exports of the metal to neutral Buropean countries, chiefly Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Italy, without further interference by the ships of the British navy. Under terms of the proposed agree- ment, a copy of which was mailed to Secretary Bryan today, exporters will file with the British consular authori- ties at this or any other port of de- parture copies of their contracts cov- ering all exports. These papers will bear the mames of consignees, names of steamers by which the metal is to be forwarded and such other partic- ulars as may govern shipments. The parties of the plan include the American Smelting and Refining com- pany, the American Metal company, the United Metals Selling Agency and a number of individual agents or ex- porters. Copper rose to 16 cents per pound today, its highest price since the outbreak’ of the war. PREPARING PONTOONS TO RAISE SUBMARINE F-4, Evidently Waterlogged and Too Heavy for Available Equipment. Washington, March 30.—Efforts to raise the sunken submarine F-4 in Honolulu harbor _were _temporarily suspended today after a hawser with which the boat was being dragged to- ward shore snapped. Rear Admiral Moore, reported from Honolulu late today that the sub- marine evidently was waterlogged and too heavy to be raised by the equip- ment employed by the searching fleet. This destroyed any faint hope that might have been left of finding any of the crew of twenty-one alive. The vessel lies in 45 fathoms, 270 feet of water, and her position is be- ing held while preparations for rais- ing her by pontoons are made.

Captain Fred G. Avery, commander of the Denver; Mrs. Avery and Captain David T. Smith of the Evelyn sunk recently by a mine in the North Sea, were among the party res- cued by the Megantic. Captain Avery refused to make any statement as to the cause of the Denver's mishap until he had seen her owners. Asked if pounding by the seas had loosened the ship's plates and let the water in he nodded in the affirmative. Mem- bers of the crew of the Denver, who were among the fourteen, said the chief engineer discovered water leak- ing in the port bunkers on March 21 and reported to Captain Avery. A search o locate the leak failed, and the water rose until by the afternoon of the next day it had put the hoilers out of commission. For two days the sun had been under a cloud and Cap- tain Avery had been guiding the Den- ver by dead reckoning. The wireless operators sent out their S. O. S. with their location by such reckoning. On the morning of March 23 the seas put out all fires and the auxiliary batteries were used to run the wireless. The sun reappeared and the new location by the sun reckoning was flashed with the S. O. S. call for aid. The Denver had drifted from her previously wire- lessed position, and the liners answer- ing her call were delayed until they caught the corrected directions. The Atlantic Transport liner ~Manhattan arrived on the scene at 3 p. m., March 23, followed closely by the St. Louis and the Megantic. The St. Louis, eastbound and seeing rescue certain, proceeded to Liverpool. With the ex- ception of the boatload taken off by the Megantic _all aboard the Denver went to the Manhattan in the Den- ver’s boats. Captain Avery's party staved aboard the Denver for several hours, when it was seen the Denver must sink. Heavy Snow in Kansas City.
