the plan is, according to the reports,
,osshut uown .t,ic works and thus pre-
vent them from continuing the manu-.
facture OF arms and ammunition and
ether war material contracted for by
the Allies.
''The only recourse Of the Allies
would be to tho courts. Undoubtedly
the courts would compel the compan-
les to pay damages, but Germany
could afford to pay them if she OBJ
tanned victory in the war She would
merely add the damages to the oill

1T is recognized in banking and
business circles here that the matter
is one of the highest importance to
the Allies and to Germany, as well.
Deprive the Allies of the output of
the Bethlehem Steel company and
the Remington Arms company and
they would be unable to carry on the
war successfully.
THE conflict has come to be rec
ognized as one dependent entirely up
on supplies. Germany and Austro-
Hungary can turn out all they can
possibly require. Any lack of muni-
tions on the part of the Allies would
give their enemies a decisive advau-
tage.'

Read For Last Time.
1t was read for the last time to the
cabinet by President Wilson and the
resignation OF Bryan, whose advocacy
of course that under no circum.
stances would involve the United
States in war, spread the impression
that the president and cabinet had
decided firmly that the rights of the
United States must be upheld in any
eventuality that may arise.
g While there is no inkling as to the
contents of the note, it is understood
an uniavorable reply will moan the
severance of diplomatic relations with
Germany and that attacks on Ameri-
cans thereafter might lead to even
graver complications. The effect OF
the general situation Of Bryan's with
drawal from the cabinet was the sub
ject of general comment everywhere.
Foreign diplomats interpreted it as
significant of forceful course on the
part of the United States.
The view was held that by accept
ing Bryan's resignation, the President
had demonstrated to Germany his
earnest intention of securing repara-
tion for the loss Of American lives
on the Lusitania and guarantee
against further violations Of Ameri-
can rights.

London, June S.-The big battle in
Galicia has not reached decision.
The AustroIGermans having crossed
the Dniester south OF Lemberg, have
assumed the offensive further to the
south and have succeeded in pushing
the Russians back betw between Ko-
lomea and Kalusz, in eastern Galicia.
This operation was necessary be-
fore the Teutonic allies continued to
advance toward Lemberg, as Russian
attacks in region Kolomea are begin
ming to look dangerous following the
Austrian defeat by the Russians in
this district. .r
British and Russian military opin-
ion that the Austro- Germans, after
the big effort which regained for
them the greater part Of Galicia, have
about exhausted themselves and it is
believed they will soon have to take
the defensive.
