"With the praise of a great city ringing in our ears,” said the secre tary, ‘‘with our mighty ships in all their splendid strength lying just out side: in this hour of natural and par donable exultation in our great navy, as the head of that navy I feel It right to utter a word of warning ‘lest we forget' those who may feel inclined to rest too sure on this vis ible and outward display of our strength and. at ite same time to speak a word of piyihise and cheer to those who, perhape^have looked too despondently upon the task that still lies before us in our efforts to reach as near as possible to perfection. "Our navy is good; it is not good enough. With your help, as long as I am secretary of the navy, we will all try to make it better. The navy Is strong; it is not strong enough With the help of the whole American people, with the help of a congress and an administration thoroughly committed to the policy of ‘taking leave to be strong upon the seas' we will make it stronger "This review is not the end of a century's labors.

Rather, we here begin a new era. supported by the chief executive and by an en lightened and progressive congress, which gave evidence of its faith In a strong navy by the passage of the best navy bill in the history of your country. "We are entering upon an era of progress such as the navy has never known before, whose keynote will be onward and<ni>hose watchword will be forward—an era marked by the lift- lag of our navy out of politics and by the subordination of all things afloat or ashore to the efficiency of the fleet In order that by our very strength we may he able to demand the right te live at peace with all the world “You have seen—and lately you have heard far too much—of the pet rifled pessimist who visits one of our levlathians of power with a sour and .disappointed visage, looking for something upon which he can hang a tale of woe and wall a jeremiad “The navy and its head have been a target of much criticism of late, some* from those honest in their be liefs, but sadly Ignorant or mlsin formed, and much from purely parti san and political sources which had no interest in facts whatever. As for such criticisms as concerned myself I have kept silent. Time must justify, or time condemn. "The splendid condition of the ships for which you are responsible; the splendid discipline of the crews which you have established, make to day a far better answer than any thing I could be able to say. As they ride to-night at their anchors on the river let them stand as their own spokesmen, and I rejoice that it is my pleasure to greet here to-night the commander-in-chief of the Atlantic fleet, Admiral Fletcher. "A few days ago a new organiza tion, bearing the name of the Nation al Security League, issued an open letter ‘announcing the result of in vestigations,’ and published to the * world this statement: “ 'Investigation discloses, it is as serted, that the navy is neither ade Without word from Gerard as to Germany 1 ward the recent American note, offi cial Washington attaches significance to intimations in diplomatic quarters friendly to Germany that the reply might contain an offer to suspend 4t- tacks without warning on merchant ships, if the United States would re new its informal proposals for unre stricted passage of foodstuffs to Ger man civilians. Weil informed European diplomats asserted that Germany most certainly would offer to settle the question at Issue by arbitration or diplomacy with an agreement to abandon sub marine warfare while the discussion was in progress. Officials have been reticent in dis cussing the idea of arbitration or a proposal with reference to foodstuffs, but it is indicated that the situation has progressed toward the point where the United States would not be likely to be satisfied with any condi tional acquiescence In the American position. It was Intimated, however, that if Germany accepted the Ameri-. can point ot yiew, the national ten dency of the Unite® States of its own initiative would be strongly to press its contention on the right to ship foodstuffs to Germany. There is a likelihood, too, that some understanding might be reached through the medium of the American government whereby Germany could be assured definitely that no mer chant ships leaving the United States would be armed, making it possible for submarine commanders to exer cise the right of visit and search with Impunity. Whether Great Britain would consent to disarm all her mer chant vessels carrying contraband, however, is a matter of eonjecturcu r That the question of permitting Americans to travel on armed mer chantmen may be taken under con slderation soon is Intimated in well informed quarters. On the other hand, some officials believe there will be little necessity for this, as Great Britain already has Informally agreed not to arm her vessels plying between British and American ports. What is regarded as one of the hopeful signs in the general situation is the confidence reflected in official and diplomatic quarters that Ger many will meet the United States at least half-wsy. and will suspend for the time being her submarine attacks without warning during the diplo matic correspondence. In this connection there baa been much comment over the recent an nouncementa from London that Great Britain did not understand from Oer many's answar last March that the principle of submarine warfare would be abandoned. It was notad that the same misunderstanding arose when the German and British replies were received to the\ American pro posal for the abandonment by Ger many of submarine warfare and the use of mines in return for American supervision of the distribution of foodstuffs if England agreed to their unrestricted passage to Germany when consigned to civilians.

British military commentators de clare a little further advance by the French will open a conspicuous gap in the German line. North of LaBassee the British are doing little more than holding their own, but they are keeping great masses of Germans engaged.

The news was greeted with great demonstrations of rejoicing and t>0P' ular manifestations in favor of war.

The story of a battle between Zeppelin and a squadron of twenty- seven British aeroplanes has reached the London Daily Mail by way of Rot terdam. "This Zeppelin,” says the account, "had been frequently seen cruising in the neighborhood of Brussels. About eight o'clock in the evening it was surrounded and attacked by twenty- seven aeroplanes. The Zeppelin put up a spirited fight with machine guns and tried to escape by rising to a high altitude, but the aeroplanes gave it no chance.

"Not only Is It composed of the finest and most efficient warships that we ever have had, but It is not excelled, except In size, by the fleet of any nation in the world; our officers are as good as any; and our enlisted men are su perior In training, education, physical development and devotion to duty to those of any other navy.- As precir.. dent of the general board for thq last flfteeh years, I tfahi'say with abso'lute confidence that the efficiency of the fleet has progressed steadily and never has been so high as to-day. “However, we need - more ships, more offlcera and more men." .

However, this has been costly for the German artillery bombardment has been severe and connterattarks al ways are followed by heavy casual ties. In their attempt last fall to reach Calais the Germans continued their attacks for six weeks but the allied forces were much weaker then, and the Germans did not meet the coun ter-offensives they now meet In the West Of these, the most important is that the French are carrying out from Arras to the point Where their line Joins the British, and in which they continue to meet with unvarying success. They report again the capture, which the Germans admit, of strosgly fortified positions, and one road at least which the Germans have been using to bring up reinforcements to their positions near LaBassee. There fore, it is believed here the French successes will lighten pressure the Germans are bringing to bear on the British around Ypres Berlin reports: "In the western theatre of.war: East of Ypres we took another point of vantage from the enemy.

Petrograd reports: The Russians have fallen back on strong atrategic positions along the San which runs north and south'through Central Ga licia. They now regard the German drive through West Galicia aa having been checked permanently. Arrival of fresh troops has reliev ed pressure on the Russiah center. Attacks on the German wings have been prosecuted with unusuab*flerce- ness. Activity in the last few days along the center of the Polish front is said to have been due to Russian in'lative with the object of keeping the Ger mans there occupied. The retreat of the Russian center from Lupkow is explained here as due not to German presaure, but to the exposed situation of the Russians at that point in view of the rolling back of the Russian right flknk. There are indications of a new Austro-German offensive against the Russian left, in the direction of, Stry and Uzsok. In the north the Russians have held the Germans on a line between Mltau and Kelmo and have driven them out of Ragela. The grain ele vators at Liban are said to have been emptied before the German occupa tion of that town. Petrograd reports: “The Russian general staff, in a statement Issued May 12, says that last week the Ger man military authorities made er roneous statements about operations on the Russian front. "Thus, they said that the Germans took 12 guns during She battle at Llbau, whereas the Russian artillery detachment operating there had but four guns. At Rosslenle the Ger mans not only did not cause the Rus sians heavy losses, but had no success at all. The Russians were not In full retreat, as the German communique says, but the German forces were obliged to withdraw along the front of the Russian offensive for a dis tance from 0 to SO miles “The Germans affrm that they have driven back the Russian attacks at Kalwarya, Augustowo sad Brsas- ysi and inflicted greet loss on the Russians, but the Russians made no attacks there. “In Oallacta, after the abortive German attempt to surround the 48th division of the Russian army, the German actlofi^during the last nine days has had the character of frontal attacks against the Russian fortified positions, which have been success fully repulsed by the Russians. It Is true that the Russian ioaaes are very heavy, but it L true alao that the losses of the German-Austrlan army are erroneous. Wishing to boom their success, the Germans multiplied by many times the number of Russian prisoners taken by them." Ix>ndon reports: The Germans are reported to be within 20 miles of Przemysl. The Russians apparently are developing counter strokea on the west Galician front and in Bukowlna, and they claim initial successes London—The Teutonic offensive continues in West Galicia, where the Russians have been driven 40 miles back from their old position and to within twenty-five miles of Przemysl The fighting, however, has become less intense. The Germanic allies estimate their captures at some 150,- 000 men, sixty-nine guns and 255 machine guns. The Russians claim that they are in a position to prevent a further ad vance by the Germans and Austrians, but as it is they have lost much ground.
