SENDS AfiENT HONE ^r-r SEMEN TO TELL BERLIN AMERICAN SENTIMENT BEINSTOIIFF IS ACTIVE DU- As PmSdeat Oondades His Koto to German/ Her Ambassador patches Personal RepresentatiT# to Berlin to La/ Real Pacts Before His Home Foreign Office. President Wilson has drafted a note, brief and pointed, to be sent to Germany asking a definite question— whether the ImpeMal government In tends to be guided In the future by the humane principle embodied in In ternational law for the conduct of maritime warfare. It wllf be sub mitted to the cabinet and dispatched soon thereafter, before the week-end Coincidentally there will start for Berlin a personal emissary of Count von Bernslorff, the German ambaa sador, to lay before Emperor Wil liam and high officials of the German government the substancs of what the ambassador learned from Presi dent Wilson in his talk, the true statp of public opinion in the United States toward the German govern ment and the American point of view on submarine warfare. The ambassador in his interview with the president, it became known, said he would send within a day or two a man of judgment and breadth to personally outline the situation to the German government. The president made arrangements at Count von Bernstorff’s request for the safe conduct of the envoy. His name is not known generally, but foreign governments already have given assurances to the United States that he will not be molested. The ambassador is understood to have explained that he has had dif- flculty on account of the cable cen- eorshlp in makla* the government, realise the feeling in the United States, and that erroneous reports had reached Germany. President Wilson's emphasis on the fact .that the United States would omit no word or act to secure an acquiescence in its position on the Lusitania case was described by the ambassador in a memorandum which he has trans mitted to his government. The dispatch of the ambassador's representative will not «ffect the sending of the American govern ment's rejoinder to the last German note, though it may delay Germany's reply The ambassador's plan has caused him to be very hopeful of the satis factory outcome of the delicate situa tion that has arisen. Believing that his government was uninformed on the feeling in the United States when the last note was written in Berlin, he Is said to be confident that offi cials will now learn important details that will be of guidance in answering the American government's new com- mtinlcatlon. Although the president naturally would not discuss this country's re lations with the allies, the ambassa dor Is said to have been convinced by his talk with Mr. Wilson of his sin cerity of purpose in upholding the neutra'ity of the United States. VAST STORES ARE SAVER BY RUSS FROM PRZEMYSL Pell ef AeHrisn Portress Did Not In- el ode Hogs Supply of Mnto- rials, Asserts Petrograd. Petrograd reports via London Frl day: The Russians evacuated Prze- mysl only after all war materials had been removed, according to an offi cial statement Issued by the Russian general staff. It is explained that after the Cap ture of Jaroslau and Radymno; by the Austro-German forces they began to spread along the weqt bank of the San, making the defense of Przemysl a difficult task. The Russians contend they realiz. ed from the first that Przemysl was Incapable of defending itself, and they remained there only as long as it served their purpose. The posi tions occupied around Przemysl ex tended the Russian front by about twenty-four miles and the troops oc cupying them were exposed to a con centrated artillery Are. The text of the communication fol lows: “We carried away from Prze mysl the materials taken from the Austrians. This finished, we remov ed on Tuesday the last of our bat teries. The following night our troops, pursuit to orders, evacuated the fronts to the north and west of the positions surrounding the city and formed a more concentrated force to the east. “Attacks delivered by the enemy Monday between Przemysl and the Dnelster were repulsed. "On the regions beyond the Dneis- ter the enemy, concentrating impor tant forces in the town of Stry. suc ceeded In advancing on the Tismen- itza. They sustained great losses, however, leaving a thousand prison ers in the course of oiu- counter-at tacks. v'On tR'e \Swltza-Lomnitza front Monday we pbessed the enemy on the Bystrica and successfully repulsed his attacks."

The big Austro-German loop around Przemysl has been drawn do a straight line, while in the soutlrensfe. Stry has been left behind as Gen. Linsingen's forces are pushing north ward towards the Dniester, with Lemberg presumably as their objec tive. It is reported some of these forces already are within twenty-five miles of Lemberg. North of Przemysl Gen Mackensea has driven a wedge between the Rus sian armies on the lower San and the Lemberg fortress. That w\s a risky move, and knowing its peril British observers have watched it with keen interest. But now Gen. Mackensen has a breathing spell and can select either to stand where he is or to push forward from a base of great strate gic advantage.

(Germany has not replied to this note.) Vera ('ru/ Appears to be Greatly In terested In President's Stand. Dispatches received at Washing ton Friday from Vera Cruz say that thn new -stand being taken by Presi dent Wilson in regard to the necessity for the warring Mexican chiefs to get together and allow foodstuffs to be distributed among the poor and needy without molestation is being given great consideration by the members of the political parties on gdl sides. Generous supplies of corn and flour are reported to have arrived at the seaport, which seems to prove that t) » Red Cross society and the other agencies bent on helping the starving people are beginning to get in their work, it is stated that these food supplies will be sold at cost to the people who are without means to secure money to get other supplies. It is claimed at the Mexican port, according to the dispatch, that I^r- ranza is making every effort to han- (Ue.tka-sitnation in a way to justify confidence in his ability to f take charge of the governmer* and that so far he has successfully done so. 130 MERCHANTMEN LOST Enemy CrulsersSlnk 56 British Ships, Mines 12 and Submarines 62.

Since German submarines began their attack on merchant shipping, January 27, the merchant vessels sunk by them num ber fifty-nine and the fishing eraft thirty-one. Looking at the losses from the standpoint of tonnage it Is seen that since the war began Great Britain has lost 458,006 tons in merchant shipping and 13,585 tons in fishing craft.

London reports: With the capture of Przemysl, accomplished early Thursday, the Austro-German armies achieved the main object of the great thrust they commenced against the Russians in Western Galicia a month ago. They have yet to drive the Rus sians farther back and establish themselves in easily defended posi tions, which will enable them to de tach forces for operations against Italy and the allies in the west. Whether or not they accomplish this, the Teutonic allies^have won a great victory and with a suddenness which overshadows all past opera tions of the war. It was only ten Six Thousand Wearers of Gray Hebei Yell"—Mr. Wilson's Coarse Endorsed. - - Veterans of the Confederacy Thurs day braved wind and rain to march through the streets of Richmond in a military pageant and to lay the eor- stone of a monument to Gen Thomas J. (Stonewall) Jackson as the'clos ing event of their twenty-fifth an nual reunion. Nearly six thousand wearers of the gray, flanked by the militia .of Vir ginia and thousands of men and wo men representing Southern civic so cieties, marched again to the strains of war time music, bared their heads t6 the statue of Jefferson Davis and sounded the “rebel yell’’ as they pass ed the giant equestrian statue of Gen. Robert E. Lee. The military pageant was an in spiring event, notwithstanding the weather, which caused its postpone ment for several hours. Veterans of the Confederacy, with heads erect, were greeted with constant cheers along the line of march. Rivaling veterans for honor of the day were the Ri-hmond Light Infantry Blues and their guests, the company of the Governor’s Foot Guards of Connecti cut. Gen. Bennett H.

Most of the forts, however, had been destroyed by the Austrians, and this is considered in military circles here to account for the fact that the fort ress succumbed so quickly to the Aus tro-German attack. When -the Russians captured Przemysl they were pressing the Aus trians across the Carpathian passes. Then on May three came the newa of * great Austro-German drive into Ga licia. Advancing slowly but surely ind carrying one thousand guns, the Teutona'^rompelled the Russians to fall back until the Russian line ran to the right bank of the’ River San. Crossing the river, the Austro-Oer- man forces progressed to the north and south of' the fortress, and on Tuesday Berlin announced that three forts to. the north had been stormed, while Vienna stated that the railway between Przemysl and Lemberg was commanded by Austrian guns. There still was hope in the allied countries, however, that a Russian counter-offensive would hold the In vaders off. but this proved ill found ed and the Russians had to give up the city, which, earlier in the war, had cost them so dearly to win. There Is no estimate of booty cap tured, but it Is fairly certain that the Russians, having lots of time, got away as many men and as much ma terial as possible and destroyed the guns and ammunition that remained. It is expected in London that the victors will endeavor to push on to Lemberg and even farther. 306.000 RUSSIANS TAKEN TEUTONS REPORT SUCCESS Valuable Booty Captured in l>rive of Austrians and Germans In Galiaria In May.

Of these numbers the capturing of four hun dred officers, including two generals, one hundred an fifty-three thousand, two hundred and fifty-four men, one hundred and sity cannon, including twenty-eight heavy ones, and four hundred and three machine guns Is to the credit of the troops snder Gen. Mackenzen. ‘Including prisoners tak en in the eastern theatre of war, as well as those announced Wednesday, the total number of Russians who have fallen into the hands of the Ger manic allied troops during the month of May amount to about one thou sand officers and more than three hundred thousand men.” Vienna reports: "Besides the booty mentioned in the German communi cation as having been captured dur ing the month of May from the Rus sians, we took one hundred * and eighty-nine ammunition wagons and a quantity of other war material, such as eight thousand five hundred rounds of artillery ammunition, five million five hundred thousand cart ridges and thirty-two thousand rifles.” \ '• Ion at Richmond, and Birmingham, Ala., was selected as the reunion city for nineteen-slxteen.
