old, both of 81 Harrison avenue, Har-
rison, were drowned in the Passaic
river yesterday afternoon when a
raft on which they were playing up
set, throwing them in the water.
Young Whelan gave his life i'm an
attempt to save Graham, who could
not swim.
The funerals of the two boys will
be held Wednesday morning. Requiem
masses will be celebrated In the
Church of the Holy Cross, Harrison.
The mass for the Whelan boy will
take place at 8 o'clock, while the
services for the other boy will be
held at $3.50 o'clock. Both interments
will be in the Cemetery of the Holy
Sepulchre.
The Whelan boy went to his death
a hero. He was trying to save young
Graham when the latter got the
death lock" on Whelan's neck and
the two went down. They did not
come to the surface again. While
Whelan was struggling to save
Aloysius Graham, his cousin, Louis
Crowley proved himself a hero in the
saving of John Graham from
watery grave. John Graham is
brother of Aloysius.
Warned by their parents to keep
away from the river, the boys disre-
garded the orders given them and in
stead of going to see a baseball game,
as they intended when they left their
homes, they made their way to the
dock adjoining the Spur stone yard
at the end of Dey street
The boys decided to have some
fun" on q raft which was tied up
in the river just south of the Spur
dock. Aloysius Graham and the
Whelan and Crowley lads took off.
their shoes and stockings and made
their way to the raft. According to
Thomas Whelan, jr, who was the
fifth one in the party, the three
warned John Graham, who is nine
years old, not 90 attempt to get out
on the raft.
The three barefooted lads accord
ing to young Whelan, were seated on
the raft with their legs and feet
dangling into the water. John Gra-
ham, the Whelan lad declares, made
his way to the raft, and as one of
the older boys was about to wave him
back the raft tilted and the four slid
into the river.
Whelan knew that Aloysious Graham
could not swim and made for hin.
He was just about to grab the lad
when young Graham threw his arms
around Whelan's neck and the two
sunk from view. Crowley caught
hold of John Graham and managed
to get him to the shore. Thomas
Whelan in the meantime had gone
home and given the alarm. Crowley
and John Graham were taken home.
The river front was soon thronged
with people. The parents and brothers
and sisters of the drowned boys were
frantic. Bystanders found II a diff
cult matter to keep some of them
from leaping into the river. Word
was sent to the Harrison police sta
ton by the engineer at the Bridge
street bridge and Motorcycle Police
man Samuel Boob went to the river.
He had his hands full handling the
throng until the arrival of Patrolman
Peter Reilly.
b Several men started graphing for
the bodies. Among those engaged in

the German text. The general opin-
ion was that the German original
note was more friendly In tone than
the translation sent to America.
Under Secretary Zimmerman COM
mented particularly on the transla-
tion of that sentence which In the
English version was made to read
as follows:
Babel" In English Form.
THE imperial government cher
ishes the definite hope that some
way may be found when peace is
concluded, or perhaps earlier, to reg
ulate the law of maritime war in a
manner guaranteeing the freedom of
the seas, and will welcome II with
gratitude and satisfaction If it can
work hand in hand with the Ameri-
can government on that OCCASION
The last three words In the Eng
lish version were obtained from the
German word "dabei,' which might
mean "on what occasion" or TO that
effect" Under Secretary thinner
man, while not disposed to question
the English translation, pointed out
that the German text emphasized the
object sought and not the time
leaving the inference that ito that
effect" was nearer the precise mean
ing intended by the foreign office.
Germany is willing to work i'm
mediatey and at all times for the
freedom of the seas" he added.

J|TNEY MEN TO

Complications.

between Mayor Raymond and COM
mittee from the Jitney Service Asso-
citation In the mayors office at IL
o'clock tomorrow morning The con-
ference will be arranged at the in
stance of the jitney association peo-
pie, as a committee was appointed
at a meeting of the board of direc-
tors of the association this morning
to represent their body. This COM
mittee is composed of President w.
S. Kellet, Paul Roder and l.. J.
Lacey.
Regulation of the jitneys is caus-
ing a serious inconvenience to the
jitney owners, it was reported today,
and some set rules are desired. 1t
is said that each policeman who Is
called upon to exercise his authority
in the matter has a different idea of
what is required, and the jitney men
are at loss what to do. They object
to being harassed in their business,
and desire some universal rule for
guidance until the Board of Works or
Common Council take some definite
action anent regulations.
The jitney association also decided
to take up the case OF the jitney
operators who go to Irvington CEN
ter. to see that the regulations there
were not an encroachment of their
rights.
Jitneys to Convey Orphans.
The jitpey owners came forward
today as the friends Of the orphans
of the city, who had been threatened
with a car scarcity for their annual
outing next Thursday, through the
offer of machines sufficient to carry
400 children.
With this offer and the promise of
additional cars from private owners,

Automobile and Motor Club, which is
conducting the outing, is satisfied

PARIS, July PA furious German
night attack south of Souchez in
which the enemy used thousands of
asphyxiating bombs forced the
French to evacuate the Souchez Gem
etery and portions of adjoining
trenches, the war office admitted this
afternoon.
The first attack by the Germans
failed. The French responded to the
German charge with a bayonet
counter attack that swept the Teu-
tons back upon their own trenches.
While the enemy was reforming
for his second attack the French
works were heavily shelled. A large
part of the projectiles gave off
asphyxiating gases that hung over
the cemetery In calm night and
rendered the French positions unten-
able The French troops therefore
withdrew to positions in the rear
from which they shelled the enemy
with great effectiveness.
For forty eight hours the Germans
have continued their attempt to re-
capture the labyrinth" southeast of
Neuville They are attacking with
hand grenades and bombs, the same
method by which the French cap
tured the cellars and tunnels several
weeks ago. All their attacks thus
far have been frultless.

BY the Associated Press.
MANILA, July 12.-Persons who
have arrived here from Saigon, capt
tai of French Cochin China, report
that all vessels belonging TO the
Messageries Maritimes which have
been engaged in Far Eastern traffic
are being transformed into transports
to carry Russian troops to the Dar-
danelles. Whenever a vessel of the
Messageries' fleet reaches Saigon, it
ferred and the freight unloaded
after which a large force of carpen-
ters 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
forcing of the Dardanelles and the
fall of Constantinople, but there have
been no reports of an authoritative
nature to the effect that Russian
troops would be sent ia the Galllpoll
peninsula to assist the allies in the
operations there.
