Battle Between Men
and Machines Closing
rBy Can,e 10 The Tribun. !

Petrograd, June p dispatch to "The
London Daily Chronicle") THE battle
in Galica is an undying testimony TO
Russian heroism. For six weeks the
Germans have been pressing with all
their weight on the Russian armies
They poured upon them hundreds Of
thousands of every kind Of she'll: they
Rave created an inferno In the country
between the Carpathians and the Rus
ylar frontier. and with the bodies Of
thousands Of their own men have paved
the way for the advance OF their bat
teries
The Russians have stood against this
unexampled fire and yielded ground
Ihch by inch, destroying one after an
other Of the enemy's units and yet
have been compelled to retire gradu-
ally from point to point under the
binding deafening shower Of German
explosives. By day the Germans hurl
on the Russian trenches tons Of iron,
forcing the Russians TO abandon cover.
BY night the Russians return. shoot
and bayonet the German infantry and
recover the trenches, only 70 repeat
the same process on succeeding days.
There are intervals Of real human
battles in the green cornfelds and on
the banks OF swiftly flowing rivers, but
il the main this is a battle between
men and machines.
The Russian army is not defeated. It
has suffered losses, but IL - whole and
is steadily and successfully pursuing
its task Of swelling the casualty lists
Of the German army, whatever sacri-
fees Of territory this may involve.
Lemberg is now threatened. The Ger
mans are advancing by series Of vlo-
lent paroXysms, succeeded by brief
periods Of exhaustion and recuperation.
Their last paroXysm has brought
them right up TO the defences of the
Galician capital. From the northwest,
west and southwest German columns
are advancing through Rawaruska on
Lemberg, on the high road between
Jaworow and Lemherg, on the Grodek
Lakes and on the SamborLemberg rail-
way to the south Of the lakes
The roar Of artillery is heard in Lem
berg. and thousands of the inhabitants
are leaving the city. The sacrifice of
Lemberg will be extremely painful to
the Russians, but the national spirit
is now aroused to a pitch Of fierce de-
termination, and 10 wear down and ulti-
mately defeat the Germans it is pre-
pared 10 make even greater sacrifices
than this.

London Throng Eager
To Take Up War Loan
lBy Cable to The Tribune. ]

London, June 2l.-"The Daily News"
says that almost before Chancellor
McKenna had concluded his speech an
nouncing the new war loan there was
q rush of would-be investors. When
the Bank of England closed its normal
business day long queues Of men were
lined up, patiently waiting the issue OF
the prospectus.
On the merits OF the issue there was
but one opinion, and that was that it
was the most attractive investment
which had been offered to capitalists
in modern times. General approval was
expressed of the facilities offered TO
the public of subscribing for small
amounts through the postoffice and
trade unions and friendly societies.
The prospectus was issued at 1880
o'clock, at which time the waiting crowd
had swollen to enormous proportions.
Lord Cunliffe, Governor of the Bank
of England, arrived a few minutes be-
fore the distribution, which took place
in the open courtyard. Applicants
were admitted in sections, large staff
of assistants handing out supplies of
the prospectus and forms which &C
companied it, these being stacked on
long tables in the courtyard.
Some Of the applicants, particularly
those representing large banking in
terests, carried away huge piles Of ma
terial. Ten or a dozen vans were kept
in readiness to carry consignments to
railway stations for distribution in the
provinces.
Particular interest attaches to the
postoffice scheme, under which the
working classes can purchase vouch-
ers at five shillings at a time, to in
vest in war loan stock. II the inves-
tor does not succeed in reaching f5

Constantinople, June 2l.-The fol-

"On the Dardanelles front, at Avi

on June Is or June 10. An armored
ship. protected by nine torpedo boats
and seven mine sweepers, appeared be-
fore Seddul Bahr and Horbatted our

The armored ship retired under protec-
tion to Lemnos.
"A weak attack against the centre OF
our southern troops AT Seddul Bahr
was repulsed on June % with losses.
Our coast batteries successfully bonn
barded some columns o. artillery and

being torpedoed.
At the Carlton Hotel tonight Mr..

about quarter Of mile away.
didn't see the captain yesterday and
so was not able to confirm this story,
but | heard nothing about submarines
from any officer during the voyage"
The discrepancy between the two
stories appears likely 20 have been
caused by hint TO Mr. Fletcher from
responsible quarters not to talk. Other
American passengers arriving on the
boat, however, say they saw nothing Of
any submarine.

"Our brave troops have repulsed TWO

governments mind is TIE old war loan.
This country never will leave its cred
itors in the lurch. and the government
therefore proposes 70 give The new
rights TO holders of the old war loan.
Concerning Consols.
Concerning consols. Mr.. McKcnna
pointed out that the minimum price
today at which dealings were permit
ted was 66i2 II that minimum were
removed the price would be MANY
points lower. and after the new loan
il would be still lower. Therefore, he
said TO the holders Of consols: "lf
you apply for 800 Of the new loan we
will allow you Is per cent on consols
for each $50 in the new loan"
This, Mr.. McKenna explained. meant
that consols were re-exchangeable at
a price Of 66 %. Application must
be made before October 10. The
Chancellor said if consols were all con-
verted it would mean an application
for e600,000,000. If conversion of the
old war loan were made it would mean
an application for some hundreds o.
millions. The government did not ex-
pect all holders to make this CONVEX
sion. This element of uncertainty
made il unwise TO fix limit to the
loan. and the government consequently
was not making any limit other than
the expenditure of the year.
The Chancellor then explained the
method by which he intended to let
the people utilize their savings. While
the minimum subscription through the
Bank of England would be flOO, the
government had in view three methods
Of issue to meet every class and purse;
the first through the Bank of England.
the second the sale of IS TO f25 bonds
through postoffices. the third the sale
of war loan vouchers for five shillings
and multiples thereof. These vouch
era will be offered for sale at postof-
fees, trades union headquarters, etc.
They will carry interest at the rate of
5 per cent per annum for every COM
plcte calendar month. The vouchers.
when total Of IS has been purchased,
will be exchangeable at postoftices for
a IS bond.
This arrangement will give the work
ing class every advantage accorded to
others. The allotments will be made
on application and lists will be closed
on or before July 10.

KEARTON, FILM NAN,
KILLED IN AFRICA
rRr Cahl. 70 The Tribune J

London, June 2l.-There is every
reason 70 believe that Cherry Kearton,
the famous moving picture operator,
has met death in East Africa. where he
has been taking big game pictures. A
cable received at his London office
from a hospital near Nairobi, says;
"Please have Kearton's next KIN
come here Immediately"
A cable inquiry has been dispatched
asking fuller details Of what happened
10 Kearton, but no reply has yet been
received. Friends believe that such
cable would not have been sent unless
the worst happened.
In Belgium's battlefelds last fall,
where Mr.. Kearton was taking pictures
of bombardments and exploding shells,
he longed for "a nice quiet place in
his African jungles.
"When the war is over" he de-
clared after witnessing the lombard
ment Of Alost in October. 81 know q

cult. and it is not very satisfactory

Prehistoric Trenches,

The Prehistoric society of East An
glia has issued a report that deals
with Grimes Graves. Norfolk. These
depressions in the ground are of un-
known age. and. 1t has been said,
were great flint quarries-the Neo-
lithic arsenal of Great Britain's stone
age. The society's report now likens
them to prehistoric trenches. They
were capable of receiving, concealing,
and burying an army. The stature
OF the prehistoric girl whose partial
remains were preserved in the chalk
of Grimes Graves was about four feet
