PURSUIT NOT sLACKENED
Berlin Reports Progress Along the
Eastern Battle Line.-Russians'
Stubborn Resistance.

London.-The German pursuit OF
the retiring Russians show no signs
of slackening, and Berlin reports prog
ress- all along the eastern battle line
except in Northern Courland, where
the Russians are offering stubborn
and effective resistance.
From southeast of Kovno, where
the Germans claim to have broken the
Russian resistance, and must, there
fore, be approaching Wilma; along the
Niemen to Grodno and thence south
eastward through the forest of Bielo-
viezh and along the borders Of the
Pripet river marshes the Russians are
falling back.
Speculation again is rife as to
whether the Germans intend to push
the Russians further or prepare posi-
tions from which to hold the Musco-
vites. Military observers here believe
this question must be settled before
many days. arguing that any vent
ures proposed for the fall must com
mence to develop soon.
The artillery has been the chief
mode of warfare in the west. The
allies guns have been most active,
Smelling virtually the entire German
line. The allies, too, have been using

starboard side and bottom filled with

If any bodies remain in the F-4 they
are underneath the debris. Doubt is
expressed, however, if m will be
found, for the great holes torn in the
submarine, only part of which were
protected by mats during the months
of raising operations, allowed the ma

OUTLINE OF GERMAN POLICY
Germany Promises That the Lives OF
Americans Will Not Be Endan-
qered BY Undersea Boats.

New York.-The International News
Service is able to present from a high
and authoritative source the conces-
sions on submarine warfare offered to
Secretary Lansing by Ambassador
Bernstorff.
Germany admitted In diplomatic
terms that In her submarine warfare
she had grievously wronged America.
She promised without qualification
that the life of not one American citi-
zen should in the future be endangered
by her undersea boats.
In the exact words of a high official,
she pledged herself that mot one
American should go overheard"
Whatever the form of diplomatic
presentation may have been, Germany
did, without reservation, assume full
responsibility for the loss of Ameri-
can lives aboard the Lusitania.
Her offer Of r~eparation was so I'M
qualified that only a method of deter
mining the amount of damage remains
to be a~scertained.
She requests the United States to
suggest some means Of ascertaining
such damages.
She does not disavow the destruc'
ton of the Lusitania. This she feels
is impossible for the eason that she
has already officially honored the com.
mander of the successful commander.
Moreover, she vigorously maintains
that the giant Cunarder, loaded with
munitions, was in reality a ship Of
a She realizes, however, that this
fact did not warrant the taking Of
American lives.
The Arabic case Is less clear cut
than that Of the Lusitania. on which
she had official reports. No submarine
commander has as yet admitted sink
ing the Arabic.
Germany will, nevertheless, pay FOL
the lives of two Americans lost with
the ship, if sufficient evidence is pre-
scented by witnesses.
