Concerns.

Philadelphia, Sept 24.-Another gi-
gantie steel merger embracing every
large Independent steel company not
controlled by the United States Steel

ney General Gregory for approval.

brace the Bethlehem Steel company,

GERMAN SUBSEA
POLICY CHANGED
New Note on Frye Case Fa-
vOrably Received.
SAFETY OF LIFE ASSURED

Right of Search Must Be Exercised by
Teuton Naval Commanders Before
American Ships Are Sunk-Hague
Tribunal to Pass on Treaty Issues
In Dispute.
Washington, Sept. 24.-Germany's
latest note on the sinking of the Ameri
can sailing ship William p. Frye. pub
lished by the state department, dis
closes an important diplomatic victory
for the United States.
Germany accepts the proposal to
fix damages by commission and to let
The Hague pass upon disputed treaty
rights involved. She also gives as
surance that no more American ships
carving conditional eontraband will
be destroyed under any circnm-
stances.
American ships carrying contra
band. however, still may be destroyed.
What effect this can have in practical
operation is problematical, because
Germany and Great Britain in their
retaliations have made absolute con-
traband practically everything which
was conditional under the declaration
of London
One thing seemed to officials Ger.
tain-German naval commanders are
ordered to exercise the rights of visit
and search with respect TO all Ameri-
can ships to determine what cargo
the vessels carry, thus making it prac-
tically sure that none will be attack
ed without warning or ample time
for passengers and crew to be trans
ferred irrespective of the cargo.
Considered with reference to the
entire controversy between Germany
and the United States the Frye note
is regarded as an ia2iaation that the
Berlin foreign Office desires to avert
a break With the Washington govern
ment This increased the interest in
Germanys attitude toward the nego
I tiations over the Arabic.
The German note is regarded by
/ officials as evidencing a more friend
/ ly spirit on the part of the German for
eign office Following months OF
strained relations between the two
countries it was received as a highly
/ favorable development.

London, Sept 24.-The strongly for.
titled Russian city of Dvinsk, on the
Dvina, 110 miles southeast of Riga,
has become the new German objec.
tive, now that the Russian armies ap-
parently have escaped from the Wilma
net
The German forces east and south
east of Ida are now making more
rapid progress, but their increased
speed at this time is expected to gain
them little in view of the fact that
the safe retreat of the greater part
of the Russian forces now seems to
be assured.
The chief success of the Germans
in the last day or two has been along
the Dvina front, which bars the road
to Petrograd Southwest of Dvinsk
the invaders captured Russian
trenches on a front of nearly two
miles. taking 1900 prisoners and
eight machine guns.
Further down the river near Fried
richstadt the Russians have gained a
minor success.
For the time being the domestic
situation i'm Russia is quiescent. The
strike in protest at the prorogation OF
the duma has been suspended, but
may be revived if the government per-
sists in it's opposition to the move
ment in favor of reassembling parlia-
ment and permitting the formation of
a new cabinet.
Along the Western front the French
report destruction of a German patrol
in Champagne. Berlin states that the
patrol was withdrawn after destroy
ing French works.
Mobilization of Bulgarian forces
continues to excite keen interest, but
the belligerent as well as the neutral
world seems to be in the dark as to
the purpose which dictates this move
ment.
