AMERICAN AGAIN
SEIZED IN BERLIN
E. II. James Defiies Expulsion De-
cree and Refuses to Appeal to
Ambassador Gerard.

BERLIN. July 1S (via London).-
Edward Holton James, an American.
arrested recently for alleged objec-
tionable Socialistic propaganda, but
later released through the efforts of
Ambassador Gerard, on the condition
that he leave the country, has re-
turned to Berlin and again has been
placed in prison.
This time James has declined to ap-
peal to the ambassador for aid, de-
claring such an appeal would be in
cons istent with his views of govern
ment.
James. who was graduated from
Harvard in 1895, will be remembered
In connection with the prosecution
In England in 1911 of Edward F.
Mylius, charged with having libeled
King George in the Liberator OF
Paris, of which James was the editor.
James is the son Of Robertson

NEW YORK. July 13.-The long abb

such vast Importance have been occur
ring in the eastern battle area, sug-
gests there NAV be some truth In re-
ports from Russian sources that the
great east Prussian strategist has fallen
into disfavor. It Is improbable. how
ever. that the cause Of his eclipse Is
the enormous losses his armies have
suffered. as Slav reports allege.
If the field marshal Ia no longer IN
favor at the Kaiser's councils II is
probably due to his fruitless efforts to
capture Warsaw. coupled with his alb
solute fearlessness in criticism. At the
outbreak of the war. Won Hindenburs
was in retirement among other reasons
because of his comments upon the mill
tary genius of the Kaiser.

character Of the man II he had ex-

the east and west since last August. In

English Aeronautica| Experts
h Adopt Slogan, "Win the War
i: From the Air."
WANT GIGANTIC AIR FLEET
Declare German Armies Can Be
:, ParaIyzed by. Destruction Of
:. Works and Bridges. '~

LONDON. July 13.-With the slogan
win the war from the air." English
aeronautical men today launched a
movement for the creation Of a min
istry Of aviation and the building of
a fleet Of 10000 aeroplanes to deluge
German ammunition works and sup
ply routes with bombs.
I. Bin des Bleds, lecturer in aero
nautics at the Royal Military Acad-
emy at Woolwich. is the real leader
OF tho campaign to create a gigantic
air fleet. He Is supported by H. G..
Wells. British novelist; C. c. Grey,
London aeronautical editor, and a
score of experts in aviation. The
plan is to organize public sentiment
through lectures and newspaper
articles behind the idea that Eng
lands salvation is in the air.
To Batter Down Bridges.
"Batter down the Rhine bridges by
daily air raids and trench warfare in
France Is ended" says a statement
issued today supporting the new
movement. "Send 900 aeroplanes,
each carrying fire bombs. over the
krupp munitions works, and the Ger
man armies will be paralyzed.
destroy the nine bridges over the
Meuse. over which supplies are trans
ported to the German armies, and the
Kaiser will be on his knees"
Collaborating with other experts,
des Bleds has prepared a table show
ing that an average of one military
train every ten minutes crossed each
of the fifteen bridges spanning the
Rhine. This means that every twen-
ty-four hours 2,1GU trains laden with
food. ammunition, and re-enforce-
monts for the German armies in the
west cross the Rhine, later passing
over the nine bridges that span the
Meuse. One thousand aeroplanes
within q weeks time could destroy
every bridge over the Meuse and the
Rhine, des Bleds estimated.
"Can Hamstring Germany"
Wells summed up his argument for
10000 aeroplanes with this statement
to the newspapers:
"If we can smash the Krupp gun
works by aeroplane raids, we can
hamstring Germany. We want aero
planes going to and coming from,
Germany like ants about an ant hill
but going, each with 800 pounds OF
explosive. and coming back empty
until the war ends We want a daily
service Of destruction to Germany"

son for finding another leader to oppose
the Russians.
If Won Hindenburg continues to hold
the full confidence OF the Kaiser, 1t Is
difficult to understand why Won Mack
ensen. who was Won Hindenburg's sub
ordinate, should have been intrusted
with the direction of the Galician cam
paign. Won Mackensen's selection was
In particular blow at Won linden
burg's prestige because the ultimate
objective Of the Galician drive Is now
being revealed as movement upon
Warsaw from the southeast.
This Is the only available direction
from which Won Hindenburg had not
tried to reach the Polish capital.
After the capture of Lemberg and
just before the present start for War
saw, Won Mackensen was made Held
marshal, obtaining equal rank with
Won Hindenburg. But the title has
failed to carry the Junior forward.
Just as IL failed with the senior.
Won Mackensen Is now encountering
that same characteristic recovery of
the Russians which Won Hindenburg
was never able to overcome. The re-
suit may cause Won Hindenburg's event
ual restoration to favor, unless In the
end Won Mackensen gets to Warsaw.
II that improbability occurs. Won Hin
denburg's subordination must be per-
manent.

WAR PLANS

Great Naval Operations Wait on
Forcing Of DardaneIIes.
PoIa Is Objective.

ROME, June 13.-Since the Italians are
now advancing northward toward Ba-
varia simultaneously both from the
Dolomites and the Carnic Alps and
making steady progress despite the
enemy's stubborn resistance. 1t Is not
unlikely that they may succeed in cut
ting off all railroad communications be-
tween Tyrol and the rest Of Austria and
completely isolating this province,
whose eastern boundary is less than
sixty miles long. between saalton on
the north. and Lienz, just above the
Carnic Alps.
The Italians are nearing Innichen,

fortress Of Goritz.
Definite Plans Prepared.
1t is not safe to predict future
phases of the campaign. since a great
deal depends on the result OF the oper-
ations in the Dardanelles. the Agean
and the Adriatic. Obviously the allies
have prepared definite plans of war
which, although followed separately,
are bound to influence the Italian
campaign Thus. for instance. It is to
be presumed that the Italians will at
tempt to Isolate the Istrian peninsula

pied, by advancing from Gradisca or

months. In all probability the Greek

Italians in investing Pola, the Austrian

Expect To Force Pola.
According to prominent Italian naval
officer of high rank the Italian feet
with twelve allied warships, will be
sufficient to force Pola to surrender ir

Gar Prepares Ships to
Take Men to Dardanelles

MANILA. July 13.-Persons who have
arrived here from Saigon, capital of
French Cochin-China, report that all
vessels belonging to the Messageries
Martimes which have been engaged in
far Eastern traffic. are being trans
formed into transports to carry Rus
sian troops to the Dardanelles.
Whenever a vessel of the Mesa ger
les fleet reaches Saigon, 1t is said the
passengers are transferred and the
freight unloaded, after which a large
force of carpenters works at top speed
to make the necessary alterations. The
ships are then sent to Vladivostok to
take on troops.
Russia probably would benefit more
than any other nation from the fore
ing of the Dardanelles and the fall of
Cotstanttnople. but there have been no
previous reports of an authoritative
nature to the effect that Russian troops
would be sent to the Gallipoli penin-
sula to assist the allies in the opera
tions there.
