 WASHINGTON, May 3l. - The ] German ambassador, Count von
 Bernstorff, today gave out for publi-
 cation the memorial record" and ac.
 companying afidavits, issued by the
 German government as a White Book
 of March 25 last, relating to "atroci-
 ties committed by Russian troops on
 German civilians and German prison
 CTS of war" The ambassador also
 announced that copies of the docu.
 ment had been delivered to all the neutral governments, including the government of the United States, and that other copies would be open to inspection at the German consulates of New York, Chicago. Philadelphia and San Francisco.
 The memorial record' summarizes the acts set forth in the 80 affidavits attached as exhibits. each accusation being accompanied by reference to the numbered affidavit giving details of the charge. The memorial rec ord" says:
 "The Russian troops have com mitted atrocities during the present war, which are incompatible with the laws of humanity and the customs of civilized nations, and which evidence the utter barbarian of their warfare. These atrocities were directed against the peaceful inhabitants of the occu pied German territory, as well as against those German soldiers, who opposed them in lawful combat and who had the misfortune of being talk en prisoner by them.
 The adjoining documentary ma terial shows that these are not isolat- ed cases of cruelty and deeds of vio- lence, for atrocities of the most bestiai sort have been committed in so many places and by so many different di- visions of troops that undoubtedly a very great part of the Russian army is permeated by spirit of inhuman savagery. A large number of cases is already well known, but in the sup plements only such cases will be found as have been incontrovertibly established by official testimony, par ticularly testimony on oath, or by official report These cases must, however, be regarded as being only a selection of the innumerable atroci- ties actually committed.
 The whole world knows that, ow- ing to the barbaric methods of war fare employed by the Russians, East Prussia, once a hourishing country, 1 in parts now presents picture o1 hopeless devastation, and that the | peaceful inhabitants were forced to | flee and leave all their belongings in order to save themselves from as sault and murder. It has been of- 1 fcially ascertained that at the time of the first as well as of the second in | vasion of East Prussia by the Rus sians, thousands of men, women and i were carried off, thousands were murdered. about 10000 build | ings were demolished or burned down and that during the second invasion

TAirty-eight American cnrgoes have been
detained.
German comments are about equally hostile
TO England and the United States, both be-
ing regarded as selfish, neither one thinking
of the other or of Germany, or the ABSOLUTE
right. They suggest that the recent land
slide in the Panama Canal was on paper
only, and that he story was manufactured
for Washington, which for diplomatic reasons
wished to have its great fighting ships on
the east coast III case relations between it
and London should take an unfriendly turn.
These views are however regarded in other
quarters as preposterous.
Advices from Washington state That the
British Embassy has issued n statement de
claring that it is impossible TO give a pledge
that all ships in the Prize Courts will he
released on bail being offered, and that The
decision must rest with the Judge. His
Maiesty's Government, in order to relieve
the shortage in tonnage, is a xious to with
draw ships rs little as possible from the
carrying trade and therefore will not oppose
the release on L0il of ships now in the Pr 70
Courts if bail is offered. Seven neutral yes
sells are now in the Prize Courts, while five
ships have been detained ia addition now

has been informed that the internal situation
in the Dual Monarchy is such that peace is
necessary as soon as attaiuable on supporta-
bile terms, and that Austria is disposed to
resign East Galicia as the price of peace.
Germany has let Austria know that in view Of
the %latter's internal situation she is inclined
to make peace on condition that the Ger
man possessions remain as before the war,
but that such a proposal is inadyiseable at
present. Concerning Turkey, the two Pow
ers are agreed that they are unable to pre-
vent her partition by the Allies and must
leave her to her fate. Austria is temporarily
yielding to German view, as above, but if
the situation should become worse the ques-
ton of 9 separate peace will certainly arise
quickly. Germany has promised to transfer
to Austria, TO assist in repelling any Russian
raid on Buda Pest, at least half u million of
her three million new soldiers who will finish
their training within Il few months.

American Flag may be especially
displayed. Some of these are Mem

Day. when all over the North and
South the people meet III their spe-
cial cemeteries to decorate the graves
of those who gave their hves .
sacrifice so that this nation might
not suffer a shameful and ignomin-
ious death. On that day the flag at
half mast bows its head In reverence
to its brave defenders. That day
has just passed, remembered by more
loyal people than ever before.
Now we are approaching the an
niversary of the day on which the
first American Flag was unfurled to
the breeze Of freedom. On the 14th
of June, 1777, Congress passed the
resolution authorizing that flag and
designating It the National Flag.
1t has stood the test of 139 years.
Washington said it should wave
thousand years. 1t has been the
main incentive in many fierce

the loss Of a single star, but has
added thirty-five more to its field Of

toction of our country, and stands
for the conservation of the liberty
of the American people.

London, June 12.-The Russians,
strengthened by steady inpour of
fresh troops, have halted the drive Of
the Austro- German armies across Ga
licia toward Lemberg and in a counter
thrust along a line Of forty or fifty
miles have repulsed the Teutonic al

had penetrated several miles toward
Lemberg.
The Austro-Germans lost heavily.

CITY REFUSES TO
TAKE BONDS BACK
Brokers Agree to Pool Their
interests With City in Fight
on the Public Service.

Unable to secure release from the
purchase OF municipal electric light
Elant bonds In the amount of $780,
900, ]. D. Everitt & Company, asse-
ciated with A. B. Leach & Company
in the purchase, have agreed to pool
their Interests with the city and fight
to the bitter end against Public Ser
vice interests. This became known
at conference between the mayor,
members OF the Board of Aldermen
and bond company Representatives IN
city hall last night.
j. D. Everitt, head of the Ever.tt
concern, and Mr. Stetson. believed to
be his counsel, appeared to confer
with the city officials. The bond
companies wanted to be released
from the purchase of the bonds, ex-
pressing a desire to get cut of the
entire transaction. Practically ell of
the city officials on hand at the con-
ference held that nothing in that line
could be done. 1t was the opinion
of practically all that the city had
to wait for decision from Justice
James J. Bergen before there could
be any other action In the matter.
The case before the justice involves
an application for a rule to show
cause why a writ of certiorari
should not be issued in case of Da-
yid McGregor against the city and
light plant contractors. Briefs Will
be submitted in the case June 26.
Can Start Lawsuits.
In the opinion of Alderman John
J. Clark thereSis no reason, why the
city, or its officials Individually, can
not start several lawsuits after the
certiorarf proceedings are at an end.
Such actions may be started to OBJ
tain interest on money for the city
and to clear the name of the bond
brokers and the Board of Aldermen,
In view of the fact that McGregor
swears the bond purchasers perpe-
trated a fraud on fellow bidders
when they refused to accept the
bonds unless they were deposited In
an Orange bank and the bond houses
get the interest of 1t until it was
used Mr.. Clark held that IL there
was such fraud, the aldermanic
board must naturally have been a
party to it, and he declared emphat-
ically that every one of the seven
had acted with the utmost
honesty in the matter.
The various points in the case
were reviewed by the aldermen,
mayor and bond company represent
atives last night. 1t was pointed out
that there might be delay of q few
weeks, or perhaps year Or more.
IN all events, 1t was pointed out by
Alderman-at-iarge w. Guy Weaver
and other aldermen today the city
would not be the loser unless it
should win the certiorari proceed
ngs and then, according to Mr.. j
Clark, it could enter suit against
he Public Service through its engi- |
neer, Mr.. McGregor, and obtain |
Judgment for the amount of interest
t had lost during the delay. In |
event of a victory for McGregor, the |
.ity would not lose cent, as condi- |
ions would then revert back to the |
tate they were In before the bonds |
we're sold.
