Reventlow Says U. S.
Asks Germans Suicide

Landau. June 25. THE Times says;
I'VE have now received the number
Of the Deutsche Tages Zeitung' which
caused the suppression Of that journal.
Reventlow's fatal outburst was q Two,
column article with the title, wv ana
the American Standpoint
"Reventlow began by explaining no"
he himself. when Captain Weddenln-
gems submarine, the U-29, was suns
in March. suggested that the British
Admiralty was ashamed to explain the
circumstances, and how the German
government last week stated that the
U-29 had been sunk by British tank
shin living the Swedish flag. He IN
sisted President Wilson and the Amerl-
can government ought to accept the
German story and ought to recognize
that German submarines could not pos
siblv be required to run the FISK OF
stopping and searching merchant ves-
sells.
"He hopes that the authorities now
recognize that il is monstrous to de-
mand of submarines that, in regard 10
neutral ships, they should proceed in
accordance with the provisions OF m
ternational law These provisions, he
saws, came into existence before the
submarine, and in common sense 1t Is
impossible to apply these provisions TO
submarine warfare.
an his concluding paragraph Revent-
low insisted afresh that the American
government SIS demanding either SUI
eide of the German submarines or an
abandonment of their trade war.

SUSPENDED BERLIN
PAPER REAPPEARS
"Tages Zeitung' in Its
First Issue for Three
DAYS Attacks Wilson.

Berlin. June "a (via London The
"Tages Zeitung." the publication Of
which was suspended last Monday by
the German authorities, reappeared
to-day. The suspension order was ls-
sued. according TO the general under-
standing, because Of an article on tne
American note TO Germany untrlehoiy
in it's tone TO the United states.
The first issue OF the newspaper
since it's suspension contains another
article By Count Won Reventlow, whose
previous statements on German-Amer-
lean relations are supposed 20 nave
incurred the displeasure OF tue Ger
man authorities In to-day's article
Count Won Reventlow makes a covert
attack upon President Wilson IN con-
nection with reports that peace con
ference is to be held in Switzerland
supposedly at the instgauon OF the
President. After mentioning THESE re-
ports, the count says:
MEANWHILE President Wilson has
closed the Panama Canal 10 shipping
trade that transportation of anmunl-
tion and other war materials from
eastern harbors Of the United states

MAIL TO NEUTRALS
TO AVOID ENGLAND
British Censorship Causes
u. S. to Order Direct
Routing.

Washington, June 24.-Complalnts
that censors tamper with neutral mail
passing through Great Britain resulted
to-day in the issuance of an order by
the Postoffice Department directing
that all mail from the United States
destined TO Norway, Sweden, Denmark
and the Netherlands be sent on steam
ers sailing directly for those countries
and not touching at belligerent ports
As the countries in which mails orlgi-
nate control the routing the order VIII
affect only outgoing mail. 1t is eN-
pected here, however, that similar
steps soon will be taken by at least
some Of the European neutrals IN
volved.
In addition to a formal communica-
ton from Sweden, the State Depart
ment has received complaints indlcat-
ing that mails both TO and from Amer
lea have been subjected to rigid cen
sorship in England.
A general inquiry into alleged tam
pering with mails, at home and abroad,
is being conducted by the Postoffice
charges having been made
that mail of embassies and legations
of belligerent countries has been
opened on United States railway mail
cars. So far as the censorship IN Eng
land is concerned, officials apparently
are inclined to doubt that there is any,
thing in existing treaties or postal
conventions to prevent belligerents
from censoring mails passing through
their territory.
Sweden, however, is said to consider
the matter far from closed. 1t is UNI
derstood that sharp protest has been
made to London, and that it will be
followed by further representations.
According to information reaching
here, Swedish firms have suffered so
greatly from interruption of their cor
respondence with American concerns
that their business is threatened with
ruin.
London, June 24.-No confirmation
has been obtained here regarding the
report that mails from Sweden to the
United States have been tempered with
while in transit through England.

Suspected Cargoes.
"2l. 1t is true that a number Of
cases, principally relating to cargoes
which, though ostensibly consigned 20
a person in q neutral country, are in
reality believed to be destined for the
enemy, have been pending in court for
some time. The United States govern
ment are aware that most of these car
goes consist Of meat and lard, and that
much Of the delay in bringing these
cargoes to adjudication was due to :he
fact that negotiations were being car
ried on for many weeks with a repre-
sentative of the principal American
meat packers for an amicable settle
owing TO the failure of the negota
tons, his majesty's government decided
that they would continue the prize
court proceedings and had at the re-
quest Of the claimants fixed the earliest
possible date for the hearing, counsel
for the latter asked for an adjourn
ment in their interest despite the fact
that the Crown was by his own adj
mission, ready to proceed.
"'22. His majesty's government are
earnestly DESTROYS of removing all
causes Of avoidable delay in dealing
with American csrcoes and vessels
which may be detained, and any specific
inquiries or representations which
may be made by the United States gov
eminent in regard to particular cases
will always receive the most careful
consideration and all information which
can be afforded without prejudice 70

of foresight displayed in preparing for
ADEQUATE supplies and munitions. The
Minister of War. he declared, ought
to possess technical training sufficient

Protests from the Right and the

70 criticise the leadership Of the army
but only the Cabinet.

Petrograd Sees Retreat
Like Allies to Marine

Petrorrad via London, June "a
The Russian retirement through Gall
cia. entailing the evacuation Of Lem
berg. is likened by Russian critics 10
General Joffre's retreat 70 the Marine IN
the FIRST part Of the war. They explain
that such successful retirement,
keeping the army intact, is IN nowise
equivalent 70 defeat. As General Jofre
was not afraid 20 permit the Germans
70 spproache near Paris, so the Rus
SLAMS claim not 70 be alarmed by the
approach Of the Austro-Germsn forces
10 Russian territory.
The evacuation OF Lemberg, II is felt
here, can have no strategic importance
other than the loss Of populated cen.
ire. The frmness of the Russian stan
on the River Tanew leads TO the behef
that the Russian army will soon reach
its own border, where, upon being rem
forced, it may prove the Germans ella
ton over their victory 10 have been
premature.
Thus far the German operations in
the region of Lemberg have exerted no
apparent effect on the situation along
the Dniester River. At only one point
on the entire length of the river. which
for weeks marked the southeastern
fighting front, have the Austro-Ger-
mans managed 20 establish themse Ives
with any permanency on the right
bank. Here in the region near Nizniow,
seventy-six miles southeast Of Lem
berg, the Germans effeotually crossed
the river, but, according 70 details
learned to-day Of severe battle at
this point, the Austro-Germans have
been repulsed, with heavy losses. and
compelled TO sacrifice many strongly
fortified positions. They still maintain
however, their position on the rlght
bank Of the river
The German official report is
sued Thursday stated that General
Won Linsingen's troops had effect
ed another crossing OF the Dnlester
between HalIcz ithirty-two miles in
direct line northwest Of Niznlow)
and Zurawno lthirty-six miles
northwest Of Halicz). The German
communication was received later
than the Petrograd dispatch.
On the front extending from the
Tanew 10 a line west Of Rawa Rusks
the Germans have been successfully
held. and 30 weakness in the Russian
position is in evidence here as re-
suit of the Russian evacuation OF Lem
berg. Russian observers are optimistic
regarding the early recapture OF the
Galician capital. The city suffered no
property damage.
