LOUIS, DL, June 10. than horses have been li het nse celal despatch WAR NEWS IN BRIEF. _ _. A German tactical reverse in the Baltic provinces of Russia is indi- cated by the official statement to-day from Berlin, The wing of the German forces which had been attempting an encircling movement east of the Dubysa River was withdrawn. Fresh Russian forces have been brought up in Galicia, to the south of Lemberg, where the principal Austro-German effort is now being directed. The Berlin announcement says the attacks of the Russians were repulsed, War reports from Paris and Berlin respecting the situation in the west show that a series of sporadic engagements is in progress in several sections of the front. On cach side minor successes have been won. The French attack south of Arras, which won for the allies a long section of German trenehes near Hebuterne, apparently is not being followed up, no new fighting in this region being reported. Unofficial despatches from Italian sources say the Malian army which is invading Austria in the direction of Trent has made a further advance. The Austrians destroyed and evacuated a fortress south of Rovereto. Three Austrian aeroplanes raided the Serbian arsenal at Kraguye- vatz, dropping bombs which killed three persons and wounded ten. One of the Austrian aeroplanes is said to have been brought down. Five more British vessels, of which four were trawlers, lave been sunk by German submarines. President Wilson is now working on a protest to England against violation of two American rights: The seizure on the high seas of our ves sels consigned to German ports which are not properly blockaded and the detention of cargoes consigned to neutral ports, Telegrams to the President, newspaper editorials and interviews with leading men show that the country as a whole Is backing up Mr. Wilson. The President is convinced there will be no war with Germany. Only in the Bryan camp is the feeling strong that a break is imminent.

WINSLOW FOR REFORM. Colonel Thompson Pleads at Luncheon for Support of $500,000,000 Movement. Many thousands of dollars were subseribed t afternoon by a num- ber of the city’s most distinguished men to a fund to be used for din- seminating the propaganda of the Navy League of the United States, which is seeking from Congress the authorisation of a bond issue of $500,000,000 to bulld and equip an adequate navy. The occasion was a luncheon given }by the League at the Recess Club, No. 60 Broadway. More than a hun- dred men whose names stands at the top of the lists of New York's finan- clers, engineers and business men were at the luncheon, and after brief addresses by Col. Robert M. Thomp- mn, Jacob H. Schiff, Rear Admiral Cameron McR. Winslow and R. Ful+ ton Cutting subscription lists were Pagsed about the room. The follow- ing amounts with the names of the subscribers were among those con- tributed to the fund: J. P. Morgan estate, $2,000; James Gordon Bennett, $2,000; Frank Til- ford, $2,500; Robert M. Thompson, $1,000; Elbert H. Gary, $1,000; Jacob H. Schiff, $1,000; Charles A. Fowler, $1,000; J, Horace Harding, $500; Allan B.

In making a speech to the lunch- eon party Mr. Schiff intimated that ‘he might not have subscribed had not & paragraph on the second page of the luncheon menu been ordered dis- regarded by Col. Thompson, who pre- sided and particularly requested that it be disregarded. The paragraph was as follows: “To emphasise the necessity of systematized, continued work such as the Navy League proposes, we may state that over $700,000 a income of the Carnogio great peace foundations, pent to render our coun- try defenseless. Whatever sys- tematized propaganda, lectures, Publicity and active participation in polities can do to block the con- struction of naval and military de- fenses they are doing.” Mr. Schiff said in part: “We need rong navy just as we need a re- serve bank in times of panic, but we need a strong navy not for war ‘but for peace, Peace societies, such as the Carnegie Foundation and others referred to in the paragraph on the menu, are just as much needed as thy Navy League. I hope that part of the propaganda of the Navy League will ‘be the encouragement of the peace sn- cletien as well as the League, to the same end—the preservation of peaco so far as the United States is con- cerned.” Rear Admiral Winslow made a strong appeal for placing the navy in the hands of naval officers and for a complete feorganization of the per- sonnel of the service. ratem of Promotion in the navy,’ all wrong.

He's got to be on the firing line all the time. And as this is the case the greatest efficiency can only be obtained ue ane youth, In the opening reas Col. Thomp- said: "The League has ben fighting for a navy for fifteen if we have not a navy capable of holding the sea against an onemy it is no use at all. If we can't protect transports we have thrown our money in the fire. We are spending $10,000,000 a year and not getting a penny of value in return.
