They are thoroughly enthused with the plan to refund railroad fares on the cooperative plan to their out-of-town customers during this sale, and when this in addition to the remarkable bargains in up-to-the-min ute merchandise, is taken into con sideration, the event will surpass any effort of its kind ever made in Ashe vllle or anywhere in this section of the south.

In speaking of the big Trade Week Morgan Smith of Smith-Bruns Cloth ing company had these words of praise for the movement: "The Gazette-News co-operative fare refunding plan is a fine idea be cause it is bound to get the mer chants of Asheville closer together and the people from out of town who will come here during that week can! find no better stores than those in this city in which to do their trad ing.' . .." .

McGraw, of the McGraw Dry Goods company, says: "That the trade week plan, as inaugurated by The Gazette-News is a very good one to reach the out of town trade and ought to be followed up by making a monthly feature of it. If that can be managed it will bring lots of busi ness of western North Carolina to Ashevllle that has been going to mail order houses, and with the co-operation of the merchants of Ashevllle we can do this." By the plan as previously announc ed In the Gazette-News more than 30 of the leading merchants in Ashevllle are preparing to make a special effort to draw people here to trade during this big cooperative sale. . ; There will , be special bargains at nearly every store, and the wise econ omical buyers can certainly save mon ey by taking advantage of this un usual opportunity to do their shopp ing in Ashevllle from Jan. 1 to 20.

The German foreign ofllce believes that any announcements regarding a final settlement of the Lusltanla case is slightly premature. No report to this effect has yet been received from Count Von Bernstorff, the German ambassador at Washington. On the contrary, it is inferred here that ne gotiations are still pending, but there is not the slightest doubt expressed that a settlement will be reached, and in the Immediate future. The Mediterranean problem Is re garded here as absolutely settled the German government, as has alrealy been stated In dispatches, regarding that their submarines In this and ether areas that have not been pro claimed as war zones, are operating under the recognized rules of "cruiser warfare," these submarines differing from regular cruisers only In that executive they are traveling under watev in stead of upon the surface. When the distinction between this "cruiser warfare" and the reprisal operations In the war zone, around the British Isles Is comprehended in Germany, It Is thought that this set tlement of thq Mediterranean pron lem will be welcomed and appreciat ed by all partlea IN KELLY CASE r - Miss Kelly's Title to Lands is Recognized in Compromise Judgment.

Usher, commandant of the navy yard. Neither Admiral Usher nor any cf those prosent would discuss what oc curred at the inquiry, at which per sons on board or near the B-2 at the time of. the explosion were question ed at length. Rear Admiral Usher made the fol lowing statement: ' The board of Inquiry met ami went aboard the submarine, where they conducted a thorough investi gation. The investigation was not finished and therefore the board will again meet today. No conclusion was reached." .' Pecretary of the Navy Daniels who is expected to name today a board of inquiry to conduct a formal investi- eation, left for Washington in the ifternoon without making any state ment regarding the explosion. At the nav yard inquirers were turned awas with the statement that Rear Admiral Usher and the others con ducting the inquiry "had nothing to say." At the hospitals where the injured were taken. It was said several of them were in a serious condition, ami one Is expected to die. Nothing approximating an official theory as to the cause of the explo sion which resulted In the death of four workmen and the injury to trm others, was obtainable. The only light shed upon the dl' aster was contained in the statement of Mr. Hutchinson, who absolved wrom blame tbe Edison battery, ' de signed to minimize the danger to sub marine crews resulting from accum ulations of gas. The E-2 was the only boat thus far equipped with these batteries, and the tests of which were reported to be thoroughly satisfae tory. "I have made as complete inspec tion of the interior of the submarine E-2 as conditions will at present ad mit," said Mr. Hutchinson. "This In spection I made as Mr. Edison's chief engineer and personal representa. live. I have formed a tentative opin ion. This .

In that opinion, however, : many Americans are said to hav agreed, although they suggested to the authorities the advisability of sending troops with the party. The concentration of Americans at Monterey and at other points whern Carranza troops can afford them pro tection was reported to the state de partment today by American Consul general at Monterey. The consul gen eral said that 60 Americans snd . other foreigners employed by mining companies near Mapini are safe' at Monterey. The consul general advised the state department of the sending of Carranza reinforcements from Monterey to Torreon, 'adding that the Carranza government was in earnest , in us efforts to improve condition and to prevent further assaults on Americans. He stated that good order was being maintained at Monterev. Consul Silliman reported from Queretaro the receipt of a teleirram from General Trevino to Carranza no tifying him of . the capture and exe cution og General Jose Rodriguez and earlos Amaya, Villa leaders, on Jan uary 13.

General Carranza has renewed his assurances to the United States that he would, make every effort to punish those' re sponsible for the murder of Ameri can mining men near Santa Ysabel.

Simultaneously, In a dispatch to Ellseo Arredondo, his ambassador designate here, General Carranza an nounced that he was about to issue a decree permitting any citizen of Mexico to execute any of the bandits "without formality." The dispatch from Consul Kllllman follows: "Department's telegram of January IS, 5 p. m., massacre Americans at Santa Ysabel, received at 8:20, and the twenty-six members of the ere of the British steamer Bayou was saved when the ship on last Thurs day struck a floating mine forty miles off the port of La Roehclle.
