Ships.

New York, June 24.-1n the absence
of dispatches from London concerning
the disposition of the Norwegian
American liner Bergensfjord, detained
by the British at Kirkwall, there was
much speculation here as to what had
happened to DR.. Bernhard Durnberg,
former colonial secretary Of the Ger
man empire. She sailed from here
June -, under guarantee of safe con-
duct from the allied powers.
All that was definitely know was
that the Bergenfjord's voyage to Ber-
gen, Norway. had been interrupted
This intelligence reached New York
after two days delay by the British
censors. the dispatch being filed last
Monday and delayed in transmission
until yesterday.
The dispatch also stated that the
Swedish steamer Varing, from Savan-
nah for Swedish ports. likewise was
detained by the British authorities.
Many Steamers Delayed.
In maritime circles the detention OF
the Bergensfjord apart from the fact
that DR.. Durnberg and his wife were
aboard, was not regarded OF unusual
significance, altho in most cases where
transatlantic liners have been de-
tanned the delay has been longest on
the west bound voyage. The steamer
Frederick VII. which reached New
York today from Scandinavian ports
was detained day. at Stornaway anc

the same time General Mackensen
pressed steadily on the soldiers OF
Russia In retreat to Rawa Ruska. Gen.
Boehm Ermoln pursued the enemy to
the east Of Lemberg.
City Not Damaged.
AS soon as the occupation had been
completed. the Russians threatened by

about io0 miles south OF Warsaw.
The victors were given an ovation
when they entered Lemberg. The city
is described as little damaged with the
exception Of a big fire In the western
mart. where the Russians ignited some
petroleum and benzine tanks. The city
apparently had not been touched by
the artillery fire.
Captured officers declare that even
until very recently the fall Of Lemberg
had not been regarded as even a re-
mote possibility by the Russians. The
fortihcations Of the city had been
modesnixed in every way.
The loss Of Lembers deprives Russia
OF her last stronghold on Galician ter

Berlin that three months ago Emperor
Nicholas declared that the fall Of

MORE MAIL TAMPERED WITH.
Letter From Europe to American
Marked "Opened by Censor"

Marked "OPened by Censor"
Washington, June 24.-F'urther evil
dence of interference with neutral
mails passing thru England was re-
ceived at the state department in the
form Of an envelope, postmarked in a
neutral European country. addressed
to a person in the United States and
bearing across Its torn flap the printed
legend "opened by censor"
An investigation Of this subject has
been in progress at the postoffice de-
partment since the Swedish minister
complained several days ago that mails
from the United States to Sweden had
been opened and tampered with in
England.
It is understood that proof has not
been lacking that the censorship has
been applied to mail both from and
to the United States, and it is said
that at least one letter addressed to
a neutral diplomatic mission has been
opened.
The Swedish minister called at the
state department yesterday and talked
with Secretary Lansing about the
question. 1t is understood that Swe-
den has inquired whether the post
Office department can arrange for
limiting the transmission of Swedish
mail on steamers that do not touch
at English ports.
Doubt has been expressed as to
whether existing treaties and postal
conventions are violated by the CEN
soring Of private mail transmitted
across q belligerent country.
Press dispatches announcing sSs:

THE COMMERCIAL SWINGS INTO

CAMP ESTABLISHED IN COPPER BASIN AND BIG LINE OF WORK IS TO GO AHEAD.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

As announced some time ago by
 Major A. J .Pickrell. in charge of the business in this county of the Com mercial Mining Company, resumption begins today in Copper Basin, as well as at Senator.
 The first crew of miners left the city yesterday, and tomorrow Geo. C. Ruffncr starts the drive of the first contingent of mules to be used in frcighting out Of the camp to Skull valley, ores to be shipped to Douglas smeltc-s of the Copper Queen. For short time only a small force of men will be employed A. B. Peach has again been retained as foreman, being intimately acquainted with un- derground conditions from former employment.
 This movement has occasioned con siderable comment. as indicating the future healthy condition of the cop per industry, and in this particular case is noteworthy of again bringing into prominent consideration a field that Is attended with splendid possi- bilities from development performed when suspension occurred several months ago throughout the state at all principal camps.
 It was also reported yesterday that in q short time Dr. Douglas, of the Cop per Queen. with a corps of assistants, is to make an inspection of his Cop per Basin holdings. and it is quite probable that a large as well as a broad line of exploration is to be con sidered aside from the main work ngs. At any rate the Commercial is alive again. and enters, it is believed an era that will bring another ed metal belt into rating of pcrman- ,ncy as well as prosperity.
