excavation made by the explosion.
"Some bombs have been thrown
down by aviators of the enemy on

insignificant. One of the German
machines, struck by shells from our

Warned Not to Display
Flags In Berlin AS They
Enrage Germans.
BIZ ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Zurich, Switzerland, July 81
American travellers arriving today
from Berlin reported serious anti
American disturbances IN Berlin on
Tuesday and Wednesday. A crowd
of students gathered in front of the
American embassy and hooted and
yelled until the police dispersed them.
Travellers said the police have re-
quested Americans in Berlin to stop
wearing the United States flag as a
badge or on scarf pins, the sight Of
which the police say, irritates the
Germans and exposes the wearers to
insults and molestation.

THREE FIREMEN
when
CAR 'HIT Truck
Collision Occurred While
the Department Was Re-
spending to Alarm.

What came near being a very seri-
Gus accident occurred last night on
North Alcaniz street near LaRua
street, when an electric car, which
was travelling south, and the hook
and ladder fire truck, travelling north,
collided, throwing Driver Marvin
Stearns and Firemen L. Scalese and
Ed. Bowman to the pavement, in
juring the truck to some extent and
hurting one of the truck horses.
The fremen were so badly hurt that
all three of those named were re-
lieved from duty last night a few
minutes after the incident, and they
were conveyed to their respective
homes. Mr.. Stearns is the more seri-
ously injured, it was stated.
AS usual, the accident occurred
when the department was responding
to an alarm which could have been
prevented. The home of a negro on
North Davis street, near Gonzalez,
was the scene of the disturbance, and
a few clothes were burned, it was re-
ported.
The police had no report Of the ac-
cident up to a late hour, Capt. Gu
sachs reaching the scene as quickly
as possible, but after all had left
the place.
The fire departments version Of il
was that the truck started northward
on Alcaniz street at LaRua street,
and that an electric car was coming
southwark. Whether the car crew
knew the truck was approaching OF
not, could not be learned, but there
was no stopping, and the crash came
causing much excitement.

81 AssocIArEp PREss.

London, July 31.-The fate of the
Russian armies, in the British sa-
lient, still hangs in the balance, while
in the western zone there continues
to be sharp fighting at various points
which seems to be initiated by one
side or the other simply to secure
the best starting point for big Of
fensive which seems certain to come.
Russia tonight admitted the evacu-
alton Of Lublin and announced that
Thursday night the Russians between
the Bug and Vistula rivers retired
unmoIested to new positions. At 9TH
er points around Warsaw the German
and Austrian statements describe
vigorous Russian counter attacks.
The Austrian slnolhcial dispatch to-
day declared the Russians are al
ready evacuating Warsaw, but there
was no confirmation late tonight.
Probably it win be days before the
struggle around Warsaw is conclud-
I'd. and even should the Russians
manage to save their armies and
place them in new Nositions, the cap
ture Of Warsaw would greatly heart
en- the civilian population of Austs 2
and Germany, and it is believed alst
would mean the Teutonic forces will
begin q trench warfare in that sec
ton, and thus release 3 million O
more men for a drive in the west.
Paris officially announced .tonigh
that no infantry actions occurred to
day. but mentions unusual artiller,
activity in Artois, at Anglers and a
Arras, in Argonne, in the forest Q
Lepetre, and also activity in tn
Vosges
Berlin declares officially that tn
French attack near Souchez was n
pulsed and that the severe fightin
in Vosges on the Lingekopf- Barren
kopf line is coming to a standstil
The French still hold a part of tn
Lingekopf positions, but the German
claim to have recovered the others.
A Vienna statement declares Il
Italian infantry attacks near Gorizi
were suspended yesterday but Il
Italian artillery continues a heay

PROPOSES To REGISTER
ALL BRITISH PEOPLE
Walter Hume Long Would De-
termine Labor Resources Of
Country.

LONDON. June 29.-Walter Hume
Long, president of the local govern
ment board, today introduced in the
house of commons a bill for the COM
pilation of national register, the OBJ
ject of which, he remarked, was not to
coerce labor, but to secure complete in
formation regarding the resources OF
the country and to enable them to be
satisfactorily organized.
The measure seeks to classify all
persons below the age of sixty-five. and
to ascertain the present occupation and
direction wherein service can be rem
dered by each.
Mr.. Long said that it was the para
mount duty of all to bring to the help
of the state the organized service OF
every class and community.
The measure, he said, was designed to
provide the machinery which could pro-
cure the maximum output at a minimum
cost. There would be compulsory regis
tration of the people Of the country, both
male and female, between the ages of
fifteen and siXty-five, and every one
would be asked to tell his age and pres
ent employment. and to volunteer for any
special form of employment other than
that on which he actually was engaged.
MIR. Long believed that such legislation
would enable the government to take full
advantage of the service Of everybody to
the benefit of the state.

TELL GERMAN ADMIRALTY
OF U. S. SHIP SAILINGS
u. S. Officials Notify Ambassador
Gerard When Vessels Due
in War Zone.

The United States government has
adopted the practice of notifying the
German admiralty through Ambassador
Gerard of the time of departure OF
every passenger ship sailing the Amer
lean flag and approximately the hours
during which it will pass through the
war zone.
This precaution is being taken in
order that German submarine COM
manders may be on the watch for
American vessels and prevent a repeti-
ton of the attack on the American
tankship Gulflight. which was tor
pedoed by a German submarine COM
mander. who supposed the vessel was
a British ship because it was in com
pany of two English patrol boats and
the American flag was not observed
until after the torpedo had been fired
officials here believe that if the Ger
man admiralty sends to its submarine
commanders notification of what
American passenger ships are passing
through the war zone there can be no
doubt of their identity.

URGES PEOPLE TO AID
IN FLOATING WAR LOAN
Premier Asquith Appeals to Britons
One London Company Sub
scribes $15,000,000.

LONDON, June 29.- Penny-wise
economy heretofore has not been a
strong feature of the gatherings at the
Guildhall, so closely connected with
aldermanic banquets of proverbial
opulence, but Premier Asquith today
chose this home of wealth to initiate
a movement in support of the British
war loan and to urge personal thrift
throughout the nation so as to make it
possible for the country TO hear the
strain of the expenditure of s15,000,O0
daily entailed by the cost of the war.
AS if to give the campaign good send
off, the first really big subscription to
the war loan was announced simulta-
neously with the appearance of Pre-
mier .Asquith the platform. This
was the application made by a London
assurance company for G3.00O.O00 ($15,-
O00.0O0) of the new loan.
Greatest War Ever Waged.
Premier Asquith opened the meeting
by stating that apart from many of its
other features" the present war was
the costliest that ever had been waged
with the total prospective expenditure
for the year approaching thousand
million of pounds 5,000.000,00O, the
daily expenditure being. and likely to
be for weeks and months to come. some
thing like s15.000,00U.
The premier empha sized that for the
first time in the financial history of
Great Britain this was a great demo-
cratic loan. The state, he said. was ap
pealing to all classes. even those whose
resources were most limited, 10 step in
and contribute their share to meet the
supreme national need.

of the loan as a financial instrument
ought to be. and indeed is now, abso-

pecially the German-American papers,

Ammunition Question.
Abiding to the discussion over the
ammunition question. DR.. Meyer-Ger-
hard says:
Germans often mistake large am
munition orders for filled orders. To a
large extent such orders are changing
biS factories into ammunition works
This IN regrettable. but the writer is
convinced that large pants of the
zszAmerican people disapprovA of it. A
popular vote would show a considerable
majority against the practice. Ger
mans must discriminate between BUSH
ness men accepting orders and the great
mass of the American people.
Equally there are Americans who
condemn violation of Belgian neutral
ity and the sinking of the Lusitania,
and are unable to understand the Ger
man idea of the real conditions while
Germans are unab BILE to understand how
Americans could travel on an ammuni-
tion ship.
Both peoples are laboring under en-
tirely different opinions. Both have
lived hitherto in peace and friendship
and should continue so to live There
is no real reason for antagonism exist
ing between them"
