SKATERS PROUD
TRADITION Of
ENGLISH NAVY
First Troop Ship To Be Lost
Through Submersible
Attack.
SUNK IN AEGEAN
NEAR PENINSULA.
Loss of Royal Edward Serious
One at This Stage of
. Campaign.

London, Aug. 1.-THE sinking In
the AEGEAN sea by a German SubmaIr-
inc of the British transport, Royal Ed.
ward, with heavy loss of life, has
shattered the proud tradition Of tho
British navy of having transported
hundred CT thousands Of men across
the sea without tho destruction OF
one troop laden ship.
According to the official announce
ment, the Foyal Edward had on board
32 military officers and 1850 troors,
in addition to the ships crew Of 22O
officers and men. or the total aboard
about 600 were saved, making the
number lost go.
On two previous occasions trans.
ports have been attacked.
Wayfarer Incident.
The Wayfarer was torpedoed by a
submarine in the Irish sea, BUT the
vessel was not sunk and only five
live were lost.
The Manitou was attacked by a
Turkish torpedo boat in the AEGEAN
sea, and although the ship was not
damaged, "a lives were lost through
the breaking of a dayit as a boat
was being lowered.
Serious Loss.
The loss of the Royal i-dnurdsis a
serious one at this moment. The mel,
1t carried were not part OF q new e
pedition, but were new reinforce
ments for the 29th division, which
has been on the Gallipoli peninsula
since the first landing and which re.
ceived such high praise from General
Ian Hamilton in his report on the ini'
t:al and subsequent operations. The
news camc as a shoclll to the British
public, who believed that the submar.
inc menace in the Aegean had been
dealt with successfully. The Royal
Edwards destruction is not likely to
delay operations recently undertaken.
Russians Still Retreat.
The retreat of Russians from Po-
land continues and it is believed pro.
badly that they will have to fall back
farther than the Brest-Litovsk line, as
Berlin reports today that General
I4itsman1I has stormed and taken the
fort on the southwest front of kovno,
capturing $500 prisoners and 24O
guns.

Army Aerial at TT. Sam Houston,
San Antonio, at 500 this afternoon,
briefly told of Wharyes torn away,
tracks demolished and vessels swept
out Of anchorage and left high and
dry. -
Details Lacking.
This latest wireless still left. the
qtestion whether Galveston had ,suf
fered loss of lives unanswered. The
message merly said he number Of
lives lost was unknown, leaving only
the inference that there may have
been deaths. Two other wireless
messages earlier in the day were
equally non.committal.
/ Storm Abating
Another wireless tonight was re-
ceived at the Brownsville Army Sta
ton, which indicated tina. the storm
in Galveston was spending it's force.
1t has been believed all day in Texas
that the storm had completely spent
its force at Galveston and was far
into he cotton bel.

ton inland and tonight wireless ccm-
mu1ication was impossible beyond

messages, and the tales Of such refu-
gees as left before the full furry of the
hurricane Was felt on the island, oc-
Cured in districts ronting the sea.
All buildings on the water front were
ruined, this circumstance being AL
most repetition of the city's exper-
fence in previous storms. Vessels
caught in the harbor also suffered
heavily, some being destroyed, while
others were badly damaged.
Traffic Escapes.
Railroad tratilc in the sections
south of Dallas has suffered little, the
greatest trouble being the loss of wire
communication. Lack of dispatchinS

United States Offers to Mediate
Aspects Of Frye
Matter.
TO HAVE HEARING
ON WHOLE SUBJECT.
Allies Practically Decide to De-
clare Cotton Contraband
Of War.

Washington, Aug. 1,.-On its face,
dealing with a single case, the i'm
portance of which could be measured
in comparatively small number Of
odllars, the American note to the
German foreign Office, made public
today, in regard to the destruction of
the sailing vessel, William P. Frye,
by a German auxiliary cruiser, may
have most important bearing on the
whole question uf the treatment of
neutral commerce by European bel
ligerents.
Accept Proposal.
The United States acquicsces in
the German proposal that "a joint
board of experts fix the value of the
Frye, which will be completely paid
for by the German government.
This was the original American
proposition, but the far reaching ef-
feet Of the note comes in the accept
ance of the German offer to arbitrate
the question of the legal justifioa-
tion of the sinking of the vessel in
so far as 1t involves the interpreta-
ton of the existing treaties with Ger
man,.
II the German government agrees
to arbitration in the form suggested,
it is believed that the American gov
ernment will be in position to ad.
dress itself to Great Britain with
greater force than it has heretofore
been able to exert in advocacy of
the general freedom of legitimate
neutral commerce on the high seas
Cotton contraband.
The decision of the ALLIES to de-
clare cotton contraband was admit,
ted today III the highest official quar-
ters, though formal statement on
the subject is withheld until official
notification is received .lere from
London and Paris.
During the day, Sir Cecil Wright,
the British ambassador, who had just
returned to Washington from Long
Island was in conference with M.
Jusserand, the French ambassador.
They are understood to have discuss
ed the cotton situation, as we'll as
other subjects connected with the
war. .....
It is learned that in day or two
some sort of an official statement will
be forthcoming detailing the reason
of the Allies for declaring cotton
contraband.

FOR THOSE FOND OF CANDY
Excellent Homemade Connections aa
Good as Any That Can Be
Purchased.

The following uncooked candies are
excellent and not difficult to make:
To make the fondant, or foundation OF
the candies, do not beat but drip the
whites of two eggs into small gran
tie pan. Stir into this gradually, until
thick enough to work like any cream
fondant. confectionery sugar. Use a
wooden spoon when stirring. Mix IN
we'll few drops of flavoring. Lay the
ball Of cream on granite slab. or
smooth board, over which you have
sprinkled some of the sugar. WORK. II
Tor a few minutes Divide the cream
into three or four rolls. If 1t is too
thick to work easily, few drops OF
milk or water will make it soft enough
to mold With this cream as founda-
ton many fancy candies can be made
Fruit coloring in orange or straw
berry can be used. and makes very
pretty candy. Dates stuffed with the
cream in several colors are good. Chop
a few dates and figs together and WORK
into the cream. Roll out and cut IN
half-inch pieces. Roll some cream OUT
fiat. cut in square pieces and fold IN
each piece a California grape. Roll
some cream into little balls and press
English walnuts, pecans or almonds
into them, a nut on each side. Dip
nodded cream balls into hot melted
and sweetened chocolate. An orange
wood stick is good to dip the cream
with. Work some cocoanut In some
cream, but when cutting be careful to
do 1t quickly, as the candy will not
look neat otherwise. Soak some rails
ms in warm water and cover with
cream
Soak some prunes overnight in cold
water, then remove the stones. crack
these and run the kernels through the
food chopper, adding other chopped
nut meats and chopped dates. Fill the
cavities of the prunes with this mix
ture. close and dip in the fondant.
When making waters be careful to use
only a very small amount Of flavor
ing such as maple. cinnamon, allspice.
orange, lemon, vanilla. strawberry.
mint or peppermint, or it will be too
strong. After the cream has been
rolled out with a rolling pin. use a
small can lid to cut the waters.
