far as to inform Germany Of this in
the forthcoming note. This report
was not confirmed. though there is
every reason to believe that even IL
this statement is not made specifically,
the Berlin government will have no
room to doubt what the attitude of
this government will be In such ar
event.
Does Not Consider Oriuna Case.
1t may be said authoritatively that
the case of the Orduna will not figure
In the note. At present this govern
ment has no official information to the
effect that the British liner, with a
score of Americans on board. was this
target for a German torpedo fired
without warning. The Treasury Dee
partment today ordered Collector
Malone. of New York, to conduct an
investigation and the case will be
handled separately from t,ne present
correspondence with Germany. There
Will be no delay of the note pending
the results of this investigation.
In considering the problem con-
fronting the country, officials of the
administration felt that the President
today faced the most difficult aspect
of the submarine issue which has
yet arisen.
Throughout it has been the con-
scious eudeavor of the administration
to meet the wishes Of the American
people which the President attempt
ed 10 ascertain through study of news
paper comment and through such vol
untary communications as were made
to officials From these studies all
members of the cabinet and the PRESS
dent himself reached the rather para
doxical conclusion that. while the
country was approving the Presidents
stand on the principles at stake, 1t
had not been very outspoken in de-
handing drastic action. Widespread
expressions of public opinion to the
effect that the President must stand
firm, but also that there must be no
conflict with Germany. have left Mr..
Wilson and his advisers somewhat con-
fused as to WAT the country really
expects its government to do. In fact.
to state the situation frankly, there
has recently developed considerable
pessimism in official quarters as to the
state of public opinion on the sub
marine issues
Many sections Indifferent.
Analysis of expressions OF public
opinion convinced officials that the
only sections in which the people are
strongly of one mind and In favor OF
the most vigorous action are New Eng
land and the Middle Atlantic States.
Signs Of lukewarmness on the vital
principles involved in the submarine
issues have been discerned In reports
from other regions, and also indica-
tons of sharp division of opinion.
Consequently. while there was no
doubt In the minds OF any OF the Presi-
dents counsellors as to what the situ-
alton required. there was much doubt
as to what this country desired. That
Is why the forthcoming note, as II IL
now understood. will not contain any
threat or intimation to Germany as to
precisely what action the United
States win feel compelled TO adopt in
the event of further disregard by Ger
many OF this governments rights.

BRITISH MAKING
GAINS IN DARDANELLES
But Turks Compel Them to Pay
Dearly For All Their
Advances.

London, July 20.--Brttish forces
fighting on the Gallipoli peninsula
against the Turks have gained further
substantial successes, according to the
British press representative viewing
the DardanelIes fighting. He says:
THE second successful advance of
the British left wing June 2s placed
In our hands another mile of the
gully ravine' which is the Gailipoh
peninsulas valley of death. The
Turks know every inch of the ground
and pour a tremendous number of
shells into the ravine, which is dotted
for miles up from the shore with
lonely graves marking the last resting
place of some soldier who was buried
where he fell.
Turkish Positions Filthy.
Despite the tragedies staged here.
the spectator must admit that the ra-
vine presents a scene OF rugged gran
deur, resembling the Scotch high
! lands.
| The mile of gully most recently
| added to the British positions is still
| Uttered with the debris of the Turkish
positions. which are invariably III
kept and filthy from sanitary point
of view If the enemy goes through
| the campaign without some great cpl
| demic, he will have undue luck.
las the correspondent travelled up
| the ravine twenty-four hours after the
| battle there were visible plenty of evil
/ dences of the strenuous character OF
! the f1ghting--scattered bodies half
| protruding from the ground. hastily
! dug graves, hundreds of broken rifles
and scattered equipment, and every
| where great fires burning, giving forth
| a sickly stencil, for on the fires Turk
| ish dead in hundreds were being
! burned
| British Work Like Bees.
| ''Iu front of the trenches British
! soldiers were working Ike bees, pre-
| pairing barriers and trenches, under
! u continuous fire of enemy sharpshoot-
! ers, while others, for whom there was
| no room in the trenches were sleeping
| calmly close behind and awaiting the
! summons to resist an expected coun-
/ ter tack .,,
I zone OF the finest things about the
| gully ravine is that, despite the heat
| and the lack OF breezes there is plenty
| Of water for man and beast--springs
| which come from the interior hills
| and enter the valley in a tiny trick
| ling stream as clear as crystal and icy
! cool. No wine ever has or will taste
as good as a glass of this water to a
warrior who has spent hours in the
! trenches STOPPING to avoid enemy
| snipers, cramped by the weight Of his
kit and the narrowness of hts quar-
| tiers, while the sun scorched his neck
| and back and while stenches and mill
lions OF flies made existence weil-nigh
| unbearable."
