HOPE SEEN FOR SETTLEMENT
German Ambassador Led by President
to Ask Berlin to Grant Llfe-sav-
Ing Demand over Submarines.

Washington, June 4.-There IL hope
in presidential circles that the dispute
between the United States and Ger
many can be amicably settled. This
hope is based on heart-to-heart con-
versation which President Wilson had
on Wednesday with Count Won Berns-
tori, the German ambassador, lasting
half an hour. The president found the
ambassador courteous and friendly, ap-
parently eager to find solution which
would satisfy the United States.
The president notified the ambassa-
dor that he would expect an assurance
Of security for innocent human life on
the high seas from the German gov.
ernment and promised not to dispatch
his reply to the German note until the
answer had been received.
Count Won Bernstorff sent a resume
OF the presidents requirements and
observations to Berlin. accompanying

THE FINISH.

iuOlaudpOlb, June d.--Rdlpu Oo
Palma. driving one OF the most spec
tacular races ever seen on any Amer
ican automobile track, won the NTH
annual revival Of the international
Sweepstakes 600-mile race at Indian
apolis on Monday when he drove his
Mercedes to victory over the classiest
field which ever has been seen In the
race.
In winning the race. DePalma
clipped more than half an hour on
the old record. going the route In
6:33:56.60. an average Of 1884 miles
an hour. The old record was
6:03:55.50. an average OF S2.47 miles
an hour, made year ago by Rene
Thomas In a Delage.
Close behind DePalma came Dario
Resta. winner Of the Vanderbilt and
Grand Prix races this year. Less
than three laps separated these two
Italian rivals and the duel between
them had been in progress all day.
Il was DePalma's greater experience
and better racing brain that told the
story.
DePalma virtually ran Resta to
death on two occasions. once when he
was striving to regain a lost lead and
the other when Resta was trying to do
the same thing. On both occasions
DePalma jockeyed with his Anglicized
compatriot and on both occasions he
made Resta overstep the bounds OF
safety for himself.
America had to be content with
third and fourth places, Gil Anderson
taking third with Stutz, while Earl
Cooper took fourth with another Stutz.

Vienna, Juno 4.--Przemysl 10 again
In Austrian hands. according to ofhcial
announcement made here.
With the Galician stronghold In
their hands. the Austrians and Ger
mans have concluded the first phase
OF their new Galician campaign, which
was launched in the drive from Crae
COW.
Dispatches from the Austrian front
to Vienna indicate that the attacking
forces relied largely on their heavy
guns, which they have used efiec-
lively all through their advance across
Galicia These dispatches say the
Russians had removed men and sup
plies from Przemysl In anticipation
Of its fall, and that they considered It
not improbable they would lose Lem
berg as well
In the ten weeks which have
elapsed since the capture Of the fort
by the Russians, the Austrians and
Germans have made every effort to
retake the fortress. large forces being
diverted for this purpose from the
other great fortress to the west. Cra-

Przemysl, about which has centered
the most dramatic epoch Of the war
in the East was taken by the Rus
SLAMS cn March 20 after siege OF six
months.
The siege OF the famous Austrian
stronghold began early in September.
II was relieved about October 10. but
the Russians came back few days
later and resumed the investment

with a large complement Of cavalry
and heavy artillery, was constantly
employed during the attack.
During the last week of the Russian
siege 24-hour cannonade was con-
Quoted by the defenders. This was
followed by a sortie in force, which
resulted In sanguinary fighting.
The Russian artillery fire increased
in volume during the last few days
and Immediately before the capitula-
ton 1t was said that the cars guns
had dropped 10000 shells into the
circle OF the forts In two hours.
According to figures furnished the
Russians by Field Marshal Kusmanek,
Austrian commander of the fort, 120.-
600 men surrendered to the besiegers.
The garrison originally had consisted
OF 10000 men, of whom 10000 were
killed and 10000 escaped. Nine gen.
erals. SO officers of the general stan
and $500 officers and officials were
among those captured.
The Russians were unable to fol-
low up the advantage given them In
the surrender OF the fort During the
last week 1t became evident that a
retreat TO the Russian frontier was In
progress.
The arrival of German 42-centime-
ter Krupps of the type which battered
Liege and Namur hastened the evacu-
alton.
Troop and supply trains which pre-
viously had been used to bring sup
plies to Przemysl were hurriedly dis
patched to Lemberg. The construction
Of additional forts about Lemberg also
was discontinued and supplies from
the Lemherg magazine were carried
eastward to places Of safety.
Przemysl Is 60 miles west Of Lem
berg and the key to the Austrian en-
pire. 1t has population Of about
fifty thousand.

DAD IN COMPLAINT
Washington Man Sends for
Daughter in Topeka.
Claims He Sent Money to Girl
and Her Husband.

An alleged case of daughter and
her husband hoodwinking dad and
obtaining money from him was today
uncovered by Joe Ross, chief of no
lice, when Ross. in answer to tele-
grams from P. E. Rhoads, ColvilIe,
Wash, made efforts to locate Rhoads'
daughter, Mrs. Grace Smith, of this
city.
According to the story told by the
police, the daughter sent her father
word that her husband had deserted
her and asked for money. He sent
her 5000. Later she again wired him
for a ticket to come home. He sent
the money which, according to Chief
Ross, was not used for the purpose of
purchasing a ticket. RhoadS then
sent the money to Chief Ross with a
request that he locate the girl and
send her home.
Ross found the woman and her hus-
band living on Monroe street He
states that he will put the woman on
a train for her fathers home and give
the ticket to the conductor.

She HAS NOT CONE MODERN JUDAS, He WIDOW is CALM
RumOr Was Current That the
Eitel Had Escaped.
Wire Communication Cut OFF by
a Coast Storm.

Washington, April 3.-An official
government dispatch received here by
wireless at 1 p. m. says the German
cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich still was
at her wharf when it was sent.
Washington, April 3.-The weather
bureau had heard a rumor from Bal
timore today that the German con-
verted cruiser Prinz Eite1 Friedrich
escaped from Newport News Friday
night
There was neither telegraph nor
telephone communication today be-
tween Washington and Newport News
or Norfolk, the storm having put the
wires out of commission.
The keeneSt interest was expressed
at government departments in the re-
port but none of them was able to
verify it.
Weather bureau officials said that
if the Eftef did make the run from
Newport News, it had an ideal night
for it, There was a stiff northeast
storm off the cape with an overcast
sky
If the rumor was untrue, it was
added that the vessel would never
have better chance than today for
it's dash for freedom.
