"Everything is fiubstantlally all right, but it Is' not finished." was the remark of Ambassador von Bernstorff after a conference with Secret a try ot Stato Lansing on tho situation. The German Ambassador has for mally presented to the State Depart ment on behalf of the Berlin Foreign Office a communication claiming that the British steamer Appam, recently taken into Hampton Roads by a Ger man prize crow, is entitled under the Prussian- American treaty to remain in American waters indefinitely. The American Government has announced no decision in the matter. Charged with having been connected with plots involving questions of Amer- j lean neutrality the German Consul Gen- j eral and vice consul and the Turkish \ Consul General in San Francisco have been Indicted by a Federal grand Jury. Artillery actions between the Frenc 1 and British and the Germans continue at various points on the Franco-Belgian front, but there have been no important changes in positions anywhere. Nor have the Germans yet begun the of fensive for which they are rei>orted unofficially to be preparing. Heavy fighting has brollen out again in East Gallcia. All along the front the artillery has been very active. The Russians succeeded north of Tarnopol after related attacks in penetrating* the A list ro- H u nga r la n advanced infan try posts, hit T were ejected from them later <>n. according to Vienna.
