tention OF the United States govern
ment today by Sir Cecil Sprlng-Rice,
the British ambassador. No request
Tor a protest tO Germany was made.
After referring to the growing fire.
quency Of raids IN sections of London
by hostile aeroplanes, Sir Cecil de-
elared that the great city practically
was untorufied absolutely SO as far
as the residential sections were con-
cerned Millions of people We're
crowded in congested quarters, he
said, and It would be impossible for
British artillerymen to defend these
sections against teroplane or Zeppelin
attacks because shells sent into the
sky toward air craft almost certainly
would work great destruction of life
when the fragments returned to earth
In the crowded city
The ambassador also pointed out
that large number OF Americans and
other non English people arc resident
in London and that located there are
the foreign embassies and legations
and many hospitals and charitable in
stitutions all of which are greatly en-
dangered by the Zeppelin attacks. As
airships, usually operate in thick
weather. at night or above the clouds,
Mr. Lansing was reminded their COM
manders can only approximate in the
most general way the landing place of
the bombs they drop.
The history of the German airmen
attacks on England SO far, the ambas-
sador asserted, is that they have no
ERECT whatever upon the army or de-
fensiVe works, and that their destruc-
property.
soon after the war in Europe began
Grand Whitlock, American ambassa-
dor To Belgium, sent a protest to the
state department against attacks upon
belgian towns By German airmen.

NEW YORK NOW =

New York, June 15.-The promi-

change manifested greater weakness
than at any time since New York en-
tered seriously into the field Of in
ternatlonal banking.

Of almost 4 per cent.

lions today. Italian remittances, on
very light exchanges, showing a dis
count of about Is per cent, while the
rate on Pctrograd was quoted at
discount of "a per cent No actual
transactions between this market and
the Russian capital were reported.
Amsterdam was the only foreign
market TO manifest any degree Of
steadness, a fact ascribed to the pur-
chase of bills on Holland by local
bankers who are assumed To have IL
quldated more American securities for
German holders.
British War Loans Denied.
There is an increasing realization
that rates of exchange between New
York and all leading European points
must inevitably suffer further depre-
citation unless London and Paris soon
replenish their credits here. So far
as is known, no steps in this dlree-
ton have yet been taken. Rumors of
the placing of a part of a forthcoming
British war loan here are denied
by those In authority. French bank
ers are reported TO be negotiating the
sale of large amounts of our securi-
ties by home investors and the pro-
ceeds Of such a transaction would go
far toward restoring the equilibrium
between New York and Paris.

the exchange market more gold came
from Canada. making u total of S73,-
