Kaiser to Celebrate

Emperor william, who watched the
battle at Beskid preceding the capture
or Grodek. has established headquarters
near the Grodek line and is expected to
attend great Te Deum, which il is
planned to celebrate in Lemherg when
that place is captured Preparations
are being made In German cities for A
great celebration and holiday. The
schools will be closed.
The Petrograd correspondent OF the
Daily Mdti sends a despatch tonight
telling of an official proclamation call
Ing upon Russians To remain calm over
the situation as the day OF retribut ion

II assures the nation that the official

THE situation ought to become better

can be called to the colors still reaches

when she will emerge from her misfor-

give Germany no rest"
The Petrograd correspondent Of the
DdIU TciCGrdph says:
AS pressure IL being continually
maintained against the Russians, accord

by no means improbable that before long
the enemy will regain possession OF Lem

LONDON. June 20 tTuesday).-It n
believed here to be a foregone concIu-
sion that Lemberg will fall to the ad-
vauciag German armies within a few
hours one army from the northwest
is descending by way OF Zoikiew
another, under the eye OF the Kaiser. is
piJng!ng straigh: through from Grodek
and Is now fighting for the las; range OF
Mills which protects the city from the
big guns OF Germans. and st.ii n third
army Is going north from the Dn'ester.
With the Teutons reinforced by great
masses OF troops from East Prussia and
froSi the western front. according to the
belief OF Petrograd. It is impossible for
;he Russians to make a stand The hope
OF military observers in London Is now
not that Lemberg is held but that the
Grand Duke will be able to withdraw
frontier.
The late dispatches from Pe,rograd
this morning are authority for the state
ment that the Germans have been heavily
reinforced. II Is believed there that the
Kaiser hopes to paralyze and crush the
Russians so that the Germans will be

The German losses have been CO.

have been replaced mainly by with
drawals from East Prussia However
the Bourse Gdsctts estimates that 30
per cent OF the German forces which
were in France and Belgium early in
April are now on the eastern front. The
newspaper expects. from the reports Of
the incessant stream Of troop trains
which are passing east and south through
Cracow. that more are coming.

talk. The congi egation of Plymouth is
In favor OF the plan and We have OBJ

Beecher. his fathers executor We would
have the body placed in the crypt this
summer but for the difficulty in getting
the committee together now"
Gen. King admitted that Mr. Beecher' :
sons in Seattle had not hcen asked for
their approval. and the opponents Of the
memorial associations scheme say that
these two sons and other relatives OF the
great preacher do not want the body to
be disnterred.
Henry Ward Reecher is buried with
his wife in an obscure plot in Green
Wood. the location being "A mile and n
half from one entrance and half mile
from another. When Dr. Hills first
proposed the dlslnterment. In 1903, It
was suggested that IA Beecher memorial

Since then. however. Plymouth Church
has acquired the property adjoining IT,,
part OF which is taken up by the John
Nrbuckle memorial. leaving a small
Beecher Park between the memorial
building and the church. At the rear Of
this park, facing Orange street. Is a
statue Of Henry Ward Beecher and a
bas-relief of Abraham Lincoln Both

the church and the Arbuckle memorial

II is IN this corridor that the sar-

plans are carried out. \ design for the
