OFFICIALS INVESTIGATE
TORPEDO|NG OF TANKER

Washington, May 4.-President Will
son discussed briefly with the cabinet
today the torpedoing Of the American
steamer Gulfiight, off Scilly islands,
but in the absence of detailed re-
port on the incident, no policy was
formulated.
Messages received from American
Consul Stephens and Consul General
Skinner at London add little to the
information previously obtained. Both
were instructed to get complete
statements from members of the
ships crew and other evidence.
The officials want to establish be-
yond doubt whether the vessel was
struck by torpedo or a mine and
If possible, the. nationality Of the ex,
blosive. Until these facts are in hand
no predictions are possible OF the
course of the United States. Thus
far, it is definitely known only that
the submarine was sighted by the of.
;fcer of the Gulf1ight % minutes be-
fore the attack, and that the subma
rine submerged Immediately. There
is no proof reported that the subma.
rine committed the attack or jof its
nationality. Nor is the information
available showing whether the Gull
fight flew the American flag at the
time of the attack, or what colors
we're shown by the two British patrol
boats accompanying her.

RUSSIANS HAVE REVENGE

RUSSIANS HAVE REVENGE
Russians have had at least partial
revenge for the defeat upon, them in
western Galicia by Austrians and Ger.
mans by badly beating the Turks who
had invaded Persia. The Turks were
defeated in three days battle near
the frontier. Petrograd reports, and
it is reported that the Russians in
flicted heavy losses on the Ottomans
If success Of the Muscovites had been
followed up, military observers de-
care Persia should be free of the
Turks. This battle was small af
air, however, when compared with
what Germany and Austria claim to
have done to the Russians in Galicia
Their reports tonight state that some
thirty thousand Russians were cap
tured and that a large number Of guns
was taken.
Important Local Victory.
It is believed that while
the Germanic allies have won inn
portant local successes they have not
driven the Russians very far back
Should they succeed in this it is as
serted that a general retreat Of the
Russians would be imperative Gand
that the whole Carpathian offensive,
upon which the Muscovites have spent
so much time and so many lives, will
be completely nul.ified.
Fighting Confined to Ypres
In Belgium the fighting has been
confined to Ypres. the region where
the Germans claim TO have captured
villages while the British. say they
were evacuated in process OF read
justing their line. The admiralty
stated tonight that allied forces, ate,
beating off the Turks in the Oar,

instructions that will concentrate
scores of trained fighters. These are
to report at certain points and take
charge of the work there.
This entire campaign may be fought
at the rangers school. 1t may be
necessary at any moment to actually
fight it in some of the great forests
of the West.
Campaign OF Prevention
But the campaign of fire prevention
is pursued with no less determination
and throughout the year. The laying
down of forest ground plan OF
breaks, trails, telephone lines, lookout
stations and such is but a small part
of the prevention work. Much of it is
educational.
There is the campaign, for instance,
which. has as it's object bringing the
man who goes into the woods to a
proper appreciation of his RESPONSE
bility At first the Forest Service used
warnings that were threats. The law
assessing fines and Imprisonment was
quoted. Later it was decided that d
threat was unpleasant and therefore
had no place in vacation land. Psyche
logically. said the authorities, threat
arouses antagonisms. Let's be pleas
ant about these warnings. So now they
are putting up signs which read some
thing like this:
Going hunting? Well. watch the
matches"
Did you put out your camphre?"
Don't burn up the forests!"
There are admonitions to be careful
at all the water holes. at all the camp
ing places. The rangers have even
built fool-proof fireplaces at certain
camps out of which fire cannot get
into the woods. The literature which
tells where to hunt also carries the fire
warnings and information as to how
danger may be avoided. The tobac-
conist at the resort hotel is furnished
with slips for distribution containing
information and fire warnings and on
the opposite side of which he may
print his own advertisement. There
is the ever-present but pleasant warn
ing of the danger that turks in the
reckless use of matches and neglect of
campfres.
The whole mechanism of forest fire
fighting was an undeveloped science
when the necessity for 1t arose. 1t re-
quired much experiment to determine
what were the best methods of pro-
cedure. 1t required many experiments
W Nliett lllltS ol dlldCh were
most effective, what tools should be
used. Tt required even longer to lay
down the ground plan of trails and
telephones and lookouts and to de-
velop a force, an organization.
The service has just now reached
the point where IL feels that these are
so perfected that 1t is entirely at home
in coping with n great emergency.
The information that has been de-
veloped by the Forest Service is
eagerly seized upon by those states
which are doing work toward the pro-
lection of their own woods. The fed
eral service co-operates with all such
and the government furnishes a part
of the money If states will organize
for fire fighting. Private owners OF
great forest tracts are also applying
the lessons learned on national forest
to their holdings and the Forest Serv-
ice is lending aid to all such

is raging in the tree-tops. If 1t does
not jump to the tree-tops beyond the
felled trees the ranger and his twenty
men may be able to fight 1t back.
But it does jump. The wind takes a
brand across the gap and it ignites
the tops of the trees beyond. The pre-
liminary campaign has failed. The
fire will get into the big forest. This
