EXPECT SULLIVAN
WILL Be OUSTED
PheIan Report Adverse to U. S.
Minister to Dominican
Republic.

WASHINGTON, May 26.-James M.
Sullivan, minister to the Dominican
republic, will undoubtedly be sep
arated from the diplomatic service
of the United States. The commit
tee, headed by Senator elect James
d. Phelan, which investigated the
conduct of Mr.. Sullivan during the
time he has represented his govern
ment in the Dominican republic, has
found him "temperamentally unfit"
for the position of a minister. The
same committee cleared him of the
charge of moral turpitude."
The report of the Phelan commit
tee is now in the hands of President
Wilson. 1t is expected that the Presi-
dent will approve the report, in which
case Mr.. Sullivan will be given an
opportunity to resign from the SER
vice of the United States. In case
Mr.. Sullivan refuses to take hint
from the officials and hand in his
resignation, it is stated on good au-
thority that he will be removed. 1t
is the hope OF the officials here that
the latter step will not be necessary.
The career of Mr.. Sullivan while
minister to the Dominican republic
has been one of charges and counter
charges. Walter w. Wick, of Ruther-
IOru, N J'' WHo was dPPOilteu ny
this government to act as fiscal agent
for the republic, early during the
regime of Mr.. Sullivan, filed charges
agaiast him with the state depart
ment. These charges were to the eff
feet that Mr.. Sullivan was working
hand in hand with a New York con-
tractor, assisting the latter in OBJ
tanning contracts in Santo Domingo
The Phelan committee investigated
all of these charges, holding hearings
in the republic, New York city and
Washington. This committee in its
report clears Mr.. Sullivan of these
charges, but does find him 'tempera-
mentally unfit" for the position of
minister, and recommends that he
be allowed to resign from the service.

"It is a subject I am reluctant to

say a few words and have done with
it. The decision speaks for itself.
OF course, you can understand my
sympathies are with Becker. He
made a mistake in life, just the same
way 1 did. I am sorry for him, but

any other decision. The evidence
against him was too strong"

I ONDON, Aug. 19 tlO:3O p. m)-
~ The sinking of the White Star
liner Arabic with the loss it is
feared, of some fifty lives and a
valuable cargo, has completely over
shadowed all other news of the war
in spite of the fact that the continued
German advance on the eastern front
is seriously endangering a portion of
the Russian army and must soon
have an effect ON other fronts.
Berlin repeats today the claim that
the fortress of KOVno has fallen,
compelling the Russians in the
Kalwarya and Suwalki districts on
the east Prussian frontiers now APP
back. In fact, the Russians now APP
pear to be able to hold their own
only in the Baltic provinces where
they are preventing the Germans
from advancing.
Besides the capture Of Koyno the
Germans have taken additional
NoVogeorgieysk forts, and, according
to their accounts, have penetrated
the outer positions of Brcst- LitOvsk,
the great fortress which is the main
stay of what was expected to be the
Russians new line of defense.
There is no evidence yet of Grand
Duke Nicholas intentions but mill
tary writer's are of the opinion that
the swiftness of the German advance
has rendered it impossible for him
to make a stand on the Brest-LitOvSk
line, which already probably has been
turned by Field Marshal Won Mack
ensen in the south and by his col
leagues in the north.
French Score Successes.
The French have scored two sue
CesSeS in the west, taking a German
trench in Artois after a heavy all-day
bombardments and making a further,
advance on the Linge summit in The
Vosges. on both these sectors there
have been heavy and continuous
fighting and the French claim to
have greatly improved their positions
by capturing vantage points and
keeping the initiative in their hands,
There have been some long dis
tance artillery engagements between
the Serbians and the Austrians
across the Danube but thus far there
is no evidence of the commencement
of the Austro- German offensive
which was to carry relief to the
Turks
The forces Of the Ottoman empire,
besides being closely pressed by the
Anglo French allies on the GallipOli
per ,nsula where new British con
tingent has obtained a firm footing
in the vicinity of Suvla bay and by
the Russians in the Caucasus, are
threatened by a new Cnemy-Italy.
The Italian government, angered by
the disregard by the porte of protests
against the treatment of Italian sub
jects in Turkey is reported to have
issued an ultimatum demanding that
Italians he allowed TO leave the coun-
try, how. when and where they de-
sire, a privilege heretofore denied
them
Italy, according to reports from
Rome, is making slow but steady
progress against the Austrians on all
fronts.

NJ EW YORK, Aug. 19-The White
~ Star line received word at 2:3O
o'clock this afternoon from it's Liver
pool office that the liner Arabic had
been sunk by a German submarine at
9;15 o'clock this morning off the
south coast of Ireland. Press dis
patches from London had told of the
sinking an hour before.
Almost at the same moment that
the cables were telling of the sinking
the line received a message from Lon
don announcing that the vessel had
sailed from Liverpool yesterday after
noon. This was followed in a few
minutes by another message stating
that the steamer had aboard 1870
cabin passengers and As in the steer
age. For nearly an hour this was the
only information that the line could
give to the hundreds of inquirers who
besciged the office in person and by
telephone for news
Then the story came through a
few words at a time. Fifteen boat
loads of survivors, an early dispatch
said, were on their way to Queens
town. Nearly four hours after the
first message a caDlegram was re-
Ceived conveying the intelligence that
375 survivors had been landed at
Queenstown, that only As were to be
accounted for and that the captain Of
the liner VIII Finch of the Royal
Naval Reserve, had wired that his
ship was torpcdoed without warning
and sank in eleven minutes.
