Points.
GERMAN SUBMARINES ,
CLAIM HEAVY TOLL

London, June 1.-THE American
note to Germany, which is considered
here as firm but pacific divided
the interest in the British public to-
day-with the successful Russian coun-
ter thrust against the Austro-German
lines in Galicia. When the placards
of the evening newspapers announced
the receipt Of the note, there was a
general rush for copies, as the text
had been anxiously awaited. It ar
rived too late, however, for comment
in the evening editions.
Russian Successes .a
The Russian success naturally
caused qualification and relief, and
now military experts expect theee
will be a repetition in Galicia of what
occurred before Warsaw last winter
when the Germans suffered enormous
losses in their efforts to break the
Russian front on the Bzura and Raw
ka rivers AS on that occasion, the
Russian reinforcements arrived in
time to force back a portion of Gener-
al Linsingen's army which had cross

heavy reverses, to have lost seven

fact, military men express the belief

the river could have escaped.
Press Opponents.
The Russians also claim that fur

Lemberg, they have pressed their opI
ponents back, and have taken anoth-

say the Germans suffered severely.
In eastern Galicia and Bukowina the
Russians continue to fall back to
the Dniester under Austrian pres

The Italians have occupied Av1ona;
the Serbians are proceeding across
northern Albania toward Port Duraz-

WAITING TO HEAR
FROM LEADERS

Washington, June n.-Several
weeks probably will be allowed to
rass before the United States takes
further steps in the development in
it's policy toward Mexico, as announc-
ed by Wilson in his recent statement
warning factional leaders to accom-
modate their differences" and restore
peace to a famine threatened country.
Meanwhile replies from Villa and
Carranza will be awaited and the gov
ernment will watch with interest the
efforts of belligerent factions to hur-
ry a settlement of their differences
on tho battlefield. The American
Ped Cross will go ahead with the
work of relieving starving non-com-
batants. It is regarded probable that
the newt action by the United States
will not be taken until a permanent
successor to Bryan has been named.
