that the crew was safe. Officials be-
lieved the crew had been landed in
Germany, as Borkum is near the Ger
man coast.
1t was considered unlikely that
there would be any diplomatic action
resulting from the loss of the Evelyn,
beyond claims for damage, inasmuch
as there is now no international con
vention in force prohibiting the laying
of mines either for offensive or de-
fensive purposes. While the laying of
mines in offensive operations, such as
the recent German note proclaimed,
has not been acquiesced in as a bel
ligerent right, it is believed that This
and other precedents would make it
difficult for the United States to make
further diplomatic protests.
The prevailing opinion in admins
tration circles today was that the
United States government would
stand firmly on its warnings to Great
Britain and Germany respectively,
concerning the misuse of neutral flags
and possible attacks on American
vessels or lives by submarines. This
policy was regarded as significant of
a possible critical turn of affairs
should any violation of the warning
ensue
The Evelyn is the first ship insured
with the United States bureau of
war risk insurance to be lost since
the bureau begun operations several
months ago Insurance has been
written on ships and cargoes amount
ing to more than $55,000,000.
The bureau was closed today and
no word has been received as to
swhen a statement from the owners
may be expected. There is little
doubt that legal proof of the destruc-
tion of the ship and cargo will result
/ in prompt payment of the insurance.
The bureau has earned in premiums
more than 100000, so it is able to
stand its first loss without resort to
, the appropriation made by congress.
Senator Simmons, one of the franz
ers of the bill which created the war
risk bureau, said at the White House
today he assumed an effort would be
made first to establish responsibility
for the sinking of the Evelyn and
that if the nationality of the mine
could be discovered the government
/ war risk bureau would make efforts
to collect damages.
"The war risk bureau has all the
powers of a private insurance COM
pany." said Senator Simmons

The baseball situation in Bruins
wick is not as bright as it was a week
ago-in fact the question of whether
or not Brunswick is to be in the GeOr-
gia State league this season is still
to be decided.
At a meeting several days ago,
when President Jemison was in the
city, it was decided to retain the fran
chise, new officers and a new board of
directors were elected, and the situa-
ton frightened up. But yesterday a
meeting of the directors was held.
OF the several elected four were pres
ent, j. H. Hopkins. L. Ludwig, F. S.
Nash and J. l.. Andrews. At this
meeting ways and means for financing
the club were discussed, but nothing
definite was agreed upon. In fact, so
bad was the last season painted that
the directors almost felt like quitting
right then. 1t was shown how much
money was lost last year, how hard
it was to get, and how the directors
had to dig" to meet some of the pay
rolls.
However, those who are making the
fight for baseball this summer point
to fc reduced, not only in the salary
limit, but otherwise; that players
would not be imported on every train,
entailing a heavy expense, etc, but
that the club could and would be op-
Grated economically.

importing Thoroughbred Cattle.

Fargo.-The many importations of
high-class thoroughbred cattle into
North Dakota this spring are causing
citation among the livestock breeders.
Fewer organized movements to pro-
cure large shipments are in evidence.
but much more independent action is
seen. While many Holsteins and
other dairy types have been shipped
into the state, it is noticeable there is
rapidly increasing number of sires
of beef types arriving. especially of
Shorthorns. The latter breed appears
to be the favorite in localities where
ranging qualities are not particularly
required and cattle are fed for the
highest amount of beef production
possible. Some of these. in addition
to the shipments made into the state
by j. ]. Hill, are also of the dual pur.
pose or milking shorthorn types.
Some recent shipments of this class
have been from Wisconsin and Ohio.

After devoting 4S years to the
