down to the hotel with an order for n
nights lodging. A few moments later

RUSSIAN PUBLIC
 FOR STRATEGIC RETREAT

Petrograd July % (noon).-(Via London. $40 ?. m.)-The military critics, after con- versatons with "competent military au- thorities" today. call upon the Russian public to view the events which are about to transpire with confidence and tran guilty and to maintain their faith in the glorious Russian army until such time as 1t shall undertake a decisive aggressive spirit to break once for all the power of the stubborn enemy"
 The Rech says:
 Until such time as our armies receive the needed military supplies the most sensible thing Is to avoid battle and re- treat to previously prepared positions, even though such retirement carries with it the occupation by the enemy of more ex- tensive territory than they previously held It is better to give up territory which may be regained than to put forth an army which could only be placed with difficulty"

Washington, July 29.-State department officials were today drafting a note to Germany asking payment for loss of the American steamer Leelanaw, torpedoed by German submarine off the Orkney Islands last Sunday. on the ground of the Prussan- American treaty of 1928.
 Preparation of the document followed the receipt of a report from American Consul Dennison at Dundee, Scotland, which showed that the Leelanaw's cap tain attempted to escape, but submitted to visit and search after warning shots had been fired. Officials hold that tho right to escape is conceded by interna- tional law, only repeated attempts to evade capture or forcible resistance be- ing regarded as affecting the case. The claim for damages is similar to that made in the case of the William P. Frye.

London. July 2s-(2:42 p. m.)-Minister of Munitions Lloyd-George addressed a meeting of coal operators in London to- day and laid particularly vigorous en- phasis upon the need, of coal for the successful conduct of the war. He said this product meant everything to Great Britain and that the country needed more of 1t to be victorious. He declared:
 Events in the east whatever they por- tend, mean that we must put forth all our strength"
 They mean" he said, that larger share than ever before of the burden of this struggle is to be cast on the shoulder of Great Britain. Do not shrink from It. We must pay the price of victory if we mean to get it. The peril our country faces is great; the demand for coal is great, and the supply of labor has dimin-
 shed. We must have more coal to win'
