GERMANS ACCOUNT
Sinking Of the Allan Liner
Hesperian
WAS ship TORPEDOED? ?
High Officials Loath to Believe the
Solemn Promise So Recently Given
by the German Government Has
Been Deliberately Broken.

Nothing in advices regarding the
sinking of the Allan liner Hesperian
served to change the waiting at
t1tude of the American government
Judgment is suspended pending COM
plete information and in spite of the
statement of the Hesperian's captain
that his ship was the victim of n
torpedo and had no warning, high Of
hcials here are not disposed to oues-
tion the good faith Of recent unquali-
ned assurances from the German gov
ernment that her submarine COM
manders had been ordered to attack
no more liners without warning.
Reports from Ambassador Page at
London added few details to the story
told in the brief cablegram in whi.h
Consul Frost at Queenstown announc-
ed that the vessel had been torpedoed
with a loss of about eight lives, none
OF them American. The consul's
statement that the ship carried on her
stern a finch gun went unamended.
though the Allan line officials have
declared that she had no gun when
she left Montreal.

RUSSIAN RETREAT.
Cars Army Leaves DesoIation Be-
hind Ii.


The Lausanne Gazette publishes a
letter from an Austrian officer fight
ing on the eastern front, in which he
says:
.Ihe Russian retreat is a master
piece of terrifying, systematic de-
vastation, which recalls the retreat of
1872. There is an immense sea of
names behind the retiring Russian
armies, caused by burning houses and
crops.
General Mischenko is followed by
well organized detachments of Cos
sacks, whose duty it is to burn every
'hihg pehind the army. They ac-
complish their task implacably.
When the honveds tried to enter
hrylow In pursuit of the Russians
every street was ahame. They were
unable to pass through the huge fur
mace and lost many precious hours in
going around the town by indirect
roads and fields.
When the Austro- Hun garians ar
rived at Vladimir -Volynskyi they
found the town burning and the town
OF Verba was blazing. Every village
on the Voiynskyi plain, as far aS Ko-
vel, was in flames. The Austro Hun
sarian troops had no shelter for DAYS.
Inc roads are indescribably cut up
and obstructed. Conveys arrived a
day and half late. 1t would take
nifty soldiers to draw one cssxt out of
mudhole.
thousands of men worked upon
repairs on the RAILWAY from SoLoi 70
Vladimir-Volynskyi and if the road
mad not been repaired in time we
would have met with disaster.">

to Mend Her Ways.

Of the torpedoing of the Allan liner
Hesperian by German submarine
with unconcealed surprise, though
there was none of the grave anxiety
that followed the sinking of the
Arabic.

white house and the state department
pending detailed reports, but it was
learned that high officials regarded it
as inconceivable that, after the as
surances given by the German gov
ernment last week, a German subma-
rine commander had, without warn
ing, launched a torpedo at a peaceful
passenger vessel.
