Petrograd, May 26, 12:15 p. m,, via London, 2:26 p. im.—Although Ger- man activity continues:in central Ga- licia on both sides of the San River between Jareslau and Przemysl, the Russians assert they now have the situation well' in hand. They state that the German drive from Gracow through Galicla, and also the par- allel movement on_the léft side of the Vistula, which reached the Kielce and Radom districts, have lost their impétus and that the Russians are now ready to take the initiative. Less aptimistic observers believe that the checking of the Gérman move is due to the necessity of bring- ing up frésh supplies of ammunition, after which their aggressive will re- sume its former intensity. NEBRASKAN HIT BY TORPEDO OR MINE 1 fr (Continued from Firat‘ Page.) water tight bulkheads, her fueél being oil. Y i With her sister ship, Minneésotan, from May to August of 1914 she was under -charter to the United States army as a transport and was lifted up to carry horses from Galveston o/ Funsten’s troops at Vera Cruz. After being released from government ser- vice she was sent through the Pana- ma Canal, being one of the first ships to ‘bring a cargo from the Pagcific coast through the new waterway. Consul Skinner Cables News, ‘Washington, May 26.—Gonsul Gen- cral Skinper at .London, cabled “to- day: “The British admiralty reports the American steamer Nebraskan tor- redoed.” He gave the same location as mentioned in the London de- spatches,.and added that he had re- ceived no direct report. The text of Mr. Skinner's cable- gram folows: “Admiralty reports American steamer Nebrasxan, Liver- pool for Delaware breakwater, tor- pedoed forty miles soutn by west T'astnet. Crew and boats standing by. Weather fine. . No direct reports.” - Government Circles Aroused. ' Coming close on the Lusitania dis- astér, the news that another American ship has been endangered aroused more than ordinary attention in gov- ernment circles, Qut al! omclals were disposed to hear détails before making comment. Some officials could not understand why a ship bound for the United States, in ballast, ana, therefore carrying contraband, should have teen endangered by a torpedo and they conmsidered it among the possi- Eilities that the Nebraskan had struck ‘@ arifting miine. Information To6 Meagre. Secretary Bryan said the state de- partment’s information was too meagre to permit the forming of an opinion. He said a full report with cGetails of the attack was expected sbon. % - Variety of Opinions, The status of the Nebraskan ‘under international law' breugiht out a va- riety of opinions today when news was received that the vessel was char- téred to the White Star Liue. Wheth- er sunk by a mine or a torpedo, a claim for damages might ~uise a com- plicated question,’ it was said. If the Nebraskan was in the scivice of a British concern, according to previous decision in such cases, she would be a lawful prize, liable to seizure and con- demnation, Chief Justice Chase held that ‘neutral vessels engaged in bel- ligerent trade or service become im- pressed with a belligerent character.” The fact that Americans were aboard the Nebraskan would require, under the position taken by the United States, that the vessel be given due warning and her crew removed to a place of safety before destruction, Arrangements Under Charter. cials here are interested in learn- ing dxactly what were the Nebraskan’s arrangements under charter. If she struck a mine, responsibility would be difficult to fix, as the TUnited States government has never been able to determine whether Gérmany or Gréat Briteain laid the mines in the open sea which destroyed the American cot- O we. occupied almost cntirely the on :near Buval, where we gained ting in the afternoon.

No Comment From Wilson, The official and news despatches on the Nebraskan was communicated to < n law applying to prize warfare.”. The Nebraskan was on her way home to fulfill a contract ¢f her own- ers with the United Stutes navy de- partment to carry coal from Newport News to San Francisco. The agents were to have the Nebraskan in Hamp- ton Roads June 5. She was not under charter to the navy, but wag to carry the coal as freight. Bound in Ballast for Orders.

Venice, May 26, .via Paris, 11:20 a. m.—The military authorities have given orders that no lights be dis- played in Venice between sunset and sunrise that can be seen from abave the city. This is a measure of pro- tection against attack by aeroplanes. The people of Venice are normally much abroad at night, but now they are staying up even later than usual, enjoying the aspect of the city with- out light. Nobady seems to fear a visit from ‘Austrian aeroplanes. Whenever a sailor or a soldier is seen on the street heé is applauded and showered with wishés for suc- cess against the enemy.
