Reply to Germany in Terms
That Cannot Be Eyaded.
SHIP SEARCHED FOR GUNS
That the Lusitania Was Unarmed,
Despite German Contentious to the
Contrary.


Wilson worked most of the day on
the new note to Germany.
The situation had developed to a
point where, although the visit OF
Count Bernstorff, the German ambas.
sador, to the president was believed
likely to enlighten the Berlin foreign
office on the attitude of the United
States, the American government is
unswerved from its intention to de-
termine promptly whether German
submarine commanders hereafter will
respect the principles of international
law.
The facts upon which the Ger
man government asked agreement, it
is now practically certain, will be
treated by the note as irrelevant with
one exception. 1t is understood that
the note will state that the Lusitania
was on a peaceful cruise, did not re-
sist capture and was unarmed. All
the other points raised by Germany
of nations.
Seeks Safety for Men.
The purpose of the United States in
the new note will be to discover
whether Germany in the future, on
encountering vessels of any national
ity that are unarmed, will transfer
passengers and crew to places OF
safety should a vessel carrying con-
traband be certain of condemnation
in a prize. court and therefore sub
iect to destruction.
1t was reiterated at the state de.
partment that while affidavits filed
there by the German embassy contend
ing that the Lusitania was armed
have been considered carefully the
proof of the United States that the
Lusitania was unarmed is beyond
question.
None of the sigpers, in the opinion
of officials, could have made as search
ing an investigation as did customs
inspectors who were specifically or
dered to examine decks OF vessels and
their holds for the one thing-the
presence of guns.
Had there been explosives aboard
officials say, clearance would have
been refused. Before the Lusitania
sailed all such facts were in posses
sion of the American government.

Russians Lose Cap
tNred Fortress.
VICTORY OF BIG VALUE
Fall Of Stronghold Relieves
Pressure ON CraCOW.

London, June AFTER a siege of
three weeks the fortress of Przemysl,
in Galicia, has fallen to the Austrians.
The Russians were in possession a
little more than seventy days.
This news was received in London
with a certain degree of surprise.
While it had been we'll known that
the Russian position at Przemysl was
serious and that the artillery fire OF
the Germanie allies was daily beeom-
ing more terrific, the official announce
ment from Vienna of an Austrian vic
tory was not expected so quickly, par
ticularly in view of the official state
ment from Petrograd Monday saying
the Austro-German grip before
Przemysl had been broken and that
the offensive in the great Galician
struggle had passed to the Russians.
The Austrians entered Przemysl af-
ter a hammering with heavy guns
that lasted more than twenty days.
The capitulation of Przemysl must. be
ascribed to the effectiveness of this
artillery onslaught. The occupation
of the fortress by the Austrians Will
remove the danger OF the Russian
threat against Cracow
Assault Costs Heavily.
When the Russians starved out the
Austrian garrison at Przemysl, an op'
Grafton which brought them into the
fortress on March %, they did 1t slow
ly and systematically, conserving the
lives of their men as much as pos
sible. The method which the Austro-
Germans have been employing recent
ly to accomplish the same end has
been entirely different Their ex
pediture in men and ammunition has
perhaps outdone anything in this war
not even excepting the German rushes
for Calais and the terrible struggle
along the User river.
The retaking of the Przemysl for
tress already has been characterized
by British observers as one of the
most remarkaDle lealS Oh tue Wdi
Immediately after the surrender oi
the Austrian garrison Russians be
gan q westward rush through Galicia
and it was predicted that they soon
would overrun both Silesia and the
plains of Hungary.
A terrific Austro-German offensive
was inaugurated, however, the result
of which was to drive the Russians
back to the San and to enable the
Teutonic allies to encircle Przemys
and attack 1t from the north and the
southeast
Batter Russian Line.
Another feature OF the fighting OF
the Eastern front is the new attack OF
Warsaw. Neither the Russians no
the British newspapers are able to sa,
whether the renewed battering of th'
Russian line between the Pilica ant
the Vistula is a serious effort to breal
through to the Polish capital or
move timed to prevent the Russians
from rushing reinforcements to thei
hard pressed troops in Galicia.
