ZEPPELIN BLOWN UP
BOMBS ARE HURLED UPON BIG
GERMAN AlRsHIP BY BRIT.
18Th MoNoPLANE.
80 MEN DASHED TO DEATH
Huge DirIgbIe craches on Top of Con-
vent and Is Destroyed-FIve Killed
and Others Wounded In Air Attack
on England.

London, June "a death duel be-
tween a British monoplane and Ger.
man Zeppelin was fought over mile
In the air just outside of Brussels
early in the morning. The battle,
which is regarded as one of the most
thrilling In all the history of war
fare, came to an end when the Ger
man monster of the sky was sent
crashing upon a convent, 5000 feet
below, crumpled and burning wreck.
Thirty-two men we're killed.
The fight in the clouds followed the
nineteenth Zeppelin raid on the Brit
ish coast, Incendiary and explosive
bombs we're dropped on towns on the
eastern coast, killing five persons and
injuring forty others Two fires also
were caused.
One of the invading dirigibles was
pursued by mopoplane in charge OF
Flight Sublieutenant Warneford, r. NJ,
Canadian. Just before daybreak the
British craft overhauled the larger air
ship and the battle begun.
Knowing he had little chance to com
bat the larger guns carried by the
giant Zeppelin, Lieutenant Warneford,
by masterful manepvering, kept out
of range and gained position of
about six hundred feet above the
dirigible. Then the monoplane, just
as the morning sun came out of the
east, dropped six bombs, apparently
releasing them simultaneously.
Each explosive hit the big gas bag,
and the German machine, with thirty
two on board, swayed for an instant,
then shot downward to the ground
at tremendous rate and almost
crashed through the roof Of convent.
But the victorious monoplane al
most met with the same fate. So
great was the force oil the explosion
that the smaller craft was tossed up
ward over one hundred feet and turned
gigantic somersault. The monoplane
turned upside down and began to drop.
Just in time the aviator, pulling him.

U. S. STEEL IS VICTOR.
FEDERAL COURT RULES coRPo-
RATION NEED NOT DISSOLVE.
Two Opinions Filed by Judges in Suit
Started Four Years Aoo-For-
eIgn Trade Upheld.

Trenton, N. j., June 5.-The decision
in the United States Steel corporation
suit filed in the United States district
court here on Thursday holds that the
corporation should not be dissolved.
The principal points in the decision
are:
1t refuses to issue any Injunction.
It holds the foreign trade Of the
Steel corporation is not violation OF
the Sherman law.
It holds certain price-fixing agree
ments which followed the Gary din
ners, but which stopped before the.
bill was filed, to have been unlawful.
It allows the government to move
to retain jurisdiction of the bill IL
such price-flxing practices are re-,
newed, but suggests matters may now
be controlled by the new trade COM
mission.
The suit against the United States,
Steel corporation was filed October 26,
1911, during the Taft administration
and was started by George w. Wicker
sham, who was encouragement.
The opinions, two In number are
largely a discussion of whether the.
steel corporation monopolized the
steel trade or dealt unfairly with COM
petitors or purchasers.
This case, proceeding under the
Sherman antitrust law, is one largely
of business facts" says the opinion.
1t declares all the trust cases so far
determined settled down to this.
that only such combinations are with
in the Sherman act as by reason OF
the intent Of those forming them or
the inherent nature of their contem-
plated act wrong the public by unduly
restricting competition or unduly OBJ
structing the course of trade.

Some of Mr.. Bryan's conciliatory
spirit has been incorporated in the
note, but the steel ring Of that portion
of the first Lusitania document. which
was written by the president himself.
was not toned down in any way.
When the cabinet met observers at
the White House were astounded to
see that Mr.. Bryan was not there
promptly at the appointed hour. The
cabinet was In session for full hour
before he appeared.
1t was after the luncheon OF the cab
met that the news got out that Secre-
tRry Bryan had resigned.
The action OF Mr.. Bryan in breaking
with the president comes at critical
period OF the administration. scarcely
more psychological than that minute
of the Baltimore convention when the
Nebraskan led the movement from
Champ Clark which resulted in the
nomination OF Woodrow Wilson.
Conscientious scruples on matter
on which he has very decided views
are back Of Mr.. Bryans action, just as
they were at Baltimore, when he broke
away from his instructions as dele.
gate and swung behind Wilson.
For several months Mr. Bryan's
friends have marveled at the willing
ness with which he has practically eff
faced his own personality in his ca
pacity as the prime cabinet officer OF
the president. Teamwork" was said
to be his watchword. and his every act
and word was devoted to the admins
tration. Observers declared that his
patience in this role was one OF the
marvels of recent political events
Friends of Mr.. Bryan declared he
did not object to the action of the
president in assuming nearly all the
functions of the secretary of state I'M
til the presidents attitude ran into q
line Of diplomatic action which was
Numerically opposed to what Mr..
Bryan believed to be the best way to
proceed.
Robert Lansing, who succeeds Mr..
Bryan as secretary of state, has been
counsel for the state department since
the early days Of Mr. Wilson's admin
istration. He Is son-in-law OF former
Secretary OF State John w. Foster, and
1t is understood that Mr.. Lansing has
received valuable advice from this
source during the trying days OF the
European war. -. ..s4A-.---~--
Mr.. Lansing is Atty years OLD He
Is a son OF the late John Lansih1 of
WATERFOWL, N. ", where he has made
his home for many years. He has been
counsel for the government In many
important controversies with foreign
governments, notably in the Boring
sea dispute with Great Britain.
Rryan's Letter Of Resignation.
Following is Mr. Bryan's letter Of
resignation:
Secretary of State, Washington.
June S, 1915.
MY Dear Mr.. President:
1T is with sincere regret that /
have reached the conclusion that |
should return to you the commission of
secretary OF state with which you hon
ored me at the beginning of your adj
ministration.
"Obedient to your sense of duty and
actuated by the highest motives, you
have prepared for transmission to the
German government note in which /
cannot join without violating what |
deem to be an obligation to my coun-
try, and the issue involved is Of such
moment that, to remain member Of
the cabinet would be as unfair to you
as It would be to the cause which Is

not definitely known, It has been gen,
orally believed that he favored a note
OF the character which under no cir
cumstances would involve the United
States In grave complications.
Resignation No Surprise.
The resignation of Mr.. Bryan was
expected In Washington. That there
has been serious disagreement be.
tween him and the president. as well
as other members of the cabinet, over
the tenor and text Of the German note
has been a matter which could not be
kept inside official circles.
Mr.. Bryan objected to the first note
to Germany dealing with the Lusitania
incident He believed the president
titude In the first note, with view
toward settling the difficulty along the
diplomatic avenues provided under
treaties which he recently negotiated
with Great Britain and France.
Pleads for Pacific Attitude.
In recent cabinet meetings Mr..
Bryan kept up his pleading for more
pacific attitude on the part of the ad-
ministration.
The president allowed him to re-
write part OF the second note and in
corporate some of the ideas contained
in his peace treaties.
According to report, some OF Mr..
Bryan's contributions to the note have
been heavily blue-penciled by the pres
ident, who has been upheld by most
Of the other members OF the cabinet.
