C. F. Stagger, the deep-sea diver who was so successful in his work in con nection with the raising of the steamer Curaco and also the halibut schooner Montana, which was burned to the waters edge and sunk about ten miles from Sitka last May. has made appli- cation to the United States government for a permit to salvage the gold from the Russian gunboat Neya, which after striking a rock, sunk in about ten fla thoms of water off Cape Edgecomb, more than sixty years ago. Accord ing to Father Sergius Kostrometinoff, of the Russo Greek church in Sitka, the Neva was sent to Sitla during Russian rule with nearly quarter of a million dollars in gold to pay Russian officials. when she was nearing Kruzof Island she lost her course in a fog. striking a reef and sinking so rapidly the crew barely escaped in small boats.

May RESUME NEUTRAL
TRADE BY AGREEMENT

Washington, Aug. s.-A gentle.
mems agreement" probably will be
entered into between Great Britain
and the United States permitting the
resumption of trade between export
ers and importers of this country and
neutral European countries.
q This is the conclusion drawn by
persons who have visited state depart
ment officials in the last few days for
the purpose of discussing the British
situation.
Great Britain is determined to de-
fend it's orders-in-council to the last
extreme. The United States is equal
ly determined not to concede that
those orders are in accord with the
recognized principles Of international
law.
On the differences which have al
ready risen the two countries are not
likely to agree during the course Of
the war and these differences even
tually will be referred to arbitration
for settlement.
But Great Britain is vitality con-
cerned in maintaining the friendship
of the United States. The United
States is just as vitality concerned in
opening markets for its food products
but more particularly for the cotton
of the Southern planters.

AMERICANS SEIZE
NATIONAL PALACE

Port au Prince, Aug. 7.-American
naval forces took possession Of the
port, the national palace and the Hay
tan gunboat Pacifque.
The occupation of the office Of the
port and the national palace gave the
Americans the last positions held by
the Haytians. The populace has been
thrown into CONSERVATION by the OF
erations of the Americans.
The president of the senate, in the
name of the nation, cabled Scion
Menos, Haytian minister to the United
States, a protest against the occupa-
ton of Haytian territory by the Amer
lean naval forces.
The American authorities have no.

Cole, United States marine corps and
commander of the American expe-
dictionary forces, is intrusted with the
maintenance of order and the safe
guarding of life and property.

PAPER PREDICTS BACKD0wN
Paris Organ Thinks Germany vii
Yield to America.

Paris, Aug. 1O.-The Temps pub.
lished summary of the diplomatic
situation between the United States
and Germany and concludes it's article
with these words:
Whatever be the desire of the
United States to avoid conflict it is
certain that rupture will follow any
new exploit of German submarines
threatening the lives of American cit
teens. Although the Germans pretend
that America cannot war on a great
nation without the greatest prejudice
to herself it is probable that the
firmness of the attitude of the govern
ment of the United States will be
sufficient to impose prudence upon
the Germans. Not daring TO sink
American vessels Germans probably
will avenge themselves on the ships
Of other neutrals.''

SLAMS the conflict on the western front
took on new impetus, Sir John
French, commander of the British ex'
peditionary force, reporting a fierce

The occupation of Praga, reported
by Berlin, brings to a dramatic eli
mas the first phase of the drive at
the Polish capital and the region OF
Eastern Poland of which Warsaw is
the dominating center. Praga is es'
sentially part Of the capital, with

Immediately to the east of Warsaw,
Berlin reports a steady hammering

Kovno and Lomza, the chief signifi.
canoe of which is their proximity to
the lines of railway communications
to Petrograd. Novogeorgievsk is the
only place west of Warsaw at which
Russian garrison remains and its
fall seems imminent
The attitude of the Poles towards
the new German regime is arousing
deep interest, as the occupation o.
Warsaw unites for the first time
three branches of the Poles hereto
fore divided among Russia, Germany
and Austria. Under the Russian re-
gime Poland has been hotbed OF
disorder and it remains to be seen
whether control of this occupied ter.
ritory will be as difficult problem
for Germany as it has been for Rus.
