 The rumor that there will be such a consolidation has been in circula- ton several times and denied, but the new rumors are circulated by people who know of the denial and should know what they are talking about.
 American shipping interests are making offers for the Pacific Mail steamships, basing their hope of sue cess on the assumption that the com pany must retire from business on account of its connection with the Southern Pacific railroad.

GERMAN QUESTION
 WORRIES AMERICA

WASHINGTON. July 2S.-There is no denying that the State Department officials are worried over the Ger man situation. The sinking of the Lee lanaw. an Aemrican ship that was under ballast and leaving a Russian port, and the report that the German undersea war craft attempted to at tack another Atlantic passenger ship lis regarded as evidence that Ger many does not propose to pay any attention to the American demands. This Is further corroborated by the announcement that Germany intends to take her time to answer the Unit ed States and permit eventualities to take their course in the meantime.
 Germans Continue Surprised
 Dispatches from Berlin say that the German papers are sorely disappoint- ed at the American note in reply to the German communication which they expected would meet with favor in the United States. It was believ. ed that the pains Germany took to offer manner of protection to Amer. ican lives and commerce would be satisfactory to the United States.

R RUSSIA MAY HAVE
 WON OUT

LONDON, July 2s.-ln a general re- view of the war situation, preliminary to a motion for the Commons to ad- journ until September t4th, Premier Asquith today paid a magnificent and eloquent tribute to the Russians, say ing that they have at last defeated the purpose of the wonderful German war machine in the greatest series of battles that have ever been fought by men.
 I've should be unsrateful and in- sensitive, indeed, if we did not recos- nlze at thls moment the indescrlbabIy gallant efforts that have been put forth by our Russian allies to stem the tide of invasion and to retain in- violate their positions" said Asquith. "l do not think In the whole military history Of the world there has been a more magnificent example of dlsci- plIne and endurance and both indl- vidual and collective initiative that has been shown by the great Russian army during the last seven weeks of continuous fighting"
 By steming the German rushes' the Premier said, the Russlans have es- tablished a condition along their iron tier like that which prevails In the west, and the war there, as In France, hao developed into contest of en- durance.
 Asquith predicted that the contest between the Allies and Germany for some time will continue to be an en- durance contest, where stubborn men in the field must have the consist ent and equally stubborn support of the people at home.
 Mir. Asqulth said that when the Commons adlourns tomorrow, he will ask that it do SO until September 14.

ITALY AND AUSTRIA LOCKED IN BIG BATTLE
ITALY IS
 IN GREAT
 CON TEST

LONDON, July 2s. - Correspond, ents of London newspapers describe the fighting along tho Italian lsonzo as Of the fercest variety. It ls esti. mated today that nearly 100000 mon in the various Italian and Austrian armies are engaged. With the Auo- trians are parts Of several corps of Bavarlans.
 Definite results have not yet been attained by either side, though reports from Rome are that the Italian plans are gradually being eonsummated.
 Captive balloons are being used with which to direct the artillery, and Italian areoplanes are being brought forward in an attempt to destroy the Austrian railroad connections in the rear of their lines.
 The battle has been in progress for several days, with the forces engaged being augmented hourly.
 The loss of life has been appalling. The Austrian attacks have been the equal in ferocity and bravery of any thing that has been attempted by men Of any of the warning Nations since the beginning Of the conflict, but they have been repulsed without exception. The Italian artillery has been used with masterly skill and strategy, and it's effectiveness demonstrated doz- ems of times daily. Whole battailons and regiments Of Austrians have been moved down. and many charges have resulted in the practical annihiIation of those engaged in them.
