REPRODUCTION CARD MAY HELP IDENTIFY
 CANADIAN OFFICER

New York May 10.-The unidenti- fed passenger in whose pocket was found a business card of John Wan amakerss New York store and in the. left hand corner Notary Public Mac Querrie Bureau of Information, is believed to be a captain in the Can adjan artillery who sailed with his wife.
 David l.. MacQuerrie, head of the bureau of information at the Wana- maker store, said today that he had given such a card to man about 35 years old whose name he could not re- call, the day before the LHsitania sailed. This man had told him he was from Toronto where he had bought his a captain in the Canadian artillery and that he intended to enlist in a regi- ment in London The man was ac- companied by his wife, MT. MacQuer- rie said.
 q gave him my card" MT. Mac Querrie said, 'tas a means of fntroduc- ton to another second cabin passen- ger whom had assisted in getting a ticket''
 A cablegram was received today by the Wanamaker firm from E. H. Po- sen of London, who is connected with the London office of the company. The message said that MT. Posen had been saved after remaining five hours in the water.
 Previously published lists of first cabin survivors contained the name of Ed Posen, Harrington, Conn. The list of first cabin passengers aboard contained only one passenger by the name of Posen It is believed that this was the MT. Posen referred to and that the designation of Pennington, Conn. as his home was erroneous.

CAPITAL AWAITING CABINET MEETING
 ON THE LUSITANIA

and the possibility that the entry of this country into the war would au- to1natically cause a reduction in sup plies of ammunition to the allies be- cause of the greater need at home, have influenced many officials to the belief that the United States can be voiced in far more effective way with out. declaring war.
 The withdrawal of Ambassador Ger ard without actually severing dtplo- matic relations has been suggested in some official quarters as one way of indicating the feeling of the Amerfean government. Other officials indicate that a complete severance, of. diplo- matic relations until complete repara- ton and apology is made probably would conform to the wishes of Amer ican public opinion.
 Before any such point Is reached however, certain preliminary steps most likely will be followed. As soon as Ambassador Gerard's report from the German government on the facts of the sinking are received. it is ez- pected that a note will be sent de- manding full reparation under the warning of the United States that Germany would be held to a strict ac- lcountability for the loss of American vessels or lives. The case of the Amer ican stemer Gulhight, torpedoed with out warning, the attack by German airmen on the American ship Gushing and the drowning of Leon c. -Thresher, an American on board the British steamer F'alaba, probably will be grouped in the general representa- tions.
 l Upon Germany's reply will depend the nature of the next steps of tho United States.

De- clines were made at the outset but gained in breadth and extent during the first hour.

South ern Pacific, Great Northern, Pennsyi- vania, St. Paul and Mexican Petro- leum went under their low quotations of that session.

WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPLIED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, June 26.-Special:
P~etrograd seems to be in nowise dis
couraged over the enforced retire
ment of the Russian troops from
Lemberg, the capture OF which by the
Teutonic allies is being celebrated in
all towns of Austria and Germany.
Nevertheless, the Russian army is
still in retreat, so far as advices from
the Lemberg district indicate, al
though strong Russian rear guards
are opposing a further Austro-Ger-
man advance with the utmost deter
mination.
Farther south, however. along the
Dneister river another Russian army
is lighting desperately to prevent the
Austrians and Germans from break
ing through. The German general
Linsingen Berlin reports has succeed
ed in crossing the river, which is
taken as an indication in that capital
that his advances cannot be stayed.
But il is pointed out from Petrograd
that only one place i'm the length of
the Dneister have the Austro-Ger-
mans managed to establish them
selves with any permanence on the
right bank.
The latest Austrian communication
says the Russians are ~ertreating on
the Dneister between the Vistula and
the San, and that north of the Wis
tula the Russian rear guards were
driven beyond the Kamienka river,
the Austrians occupying Astrowiec
and Sandomierz in Poland near the
Galician border.
Artillery has held sway in the OPP
erations in France, the Germans ex-
pending a vast number of shells on
Berry-au-Bac. Sapigneul, in the Ar
gonne, and on Metzeral. A recent
bombardment of Dunkirk by the Ger
mans involved the expenditure OF
thirty-six tons of great shells from
their long range guns. AT less than
half-hour intervals throughout an en-
tire day a 16-inch shell fell into the
city. The explosives wrought much
damage, but killed only a few civil
ians.
Great Britain has begun in earnest
the work of producing munitions,
first of all assembling the workmen
necessary to carry out the plan which
David Lloyd-George. minister of mu-
nitions. has formulated.
The first of the seven days allow
ed by the minister to the labor lead
ers to furnish the men is reported to
have given good results in the way
of recruiting.
Berlin advices say the prospects
are good for the forthcoming German
note to the United States meeting the
American governments wishes re-
garding the submarine warfare II
Is intimated that Germany may con
sent 10 an examination before taking
action.
