Asquith Admits There
 Is Something Wrong" in Mesopotamia Field

London, July 1S.-Premier Asquith inti- mated in the House of Commons today |that there was some basis for the ad- < 0erse criticism of the conduct of the British expedition in Mesopotama. After | the battle of Ctesiphon last November, he said, Gen. Sir John Nixon, who was Ithen in command, telegraphed that the medical arrangements were quite satis- |factory.
 Thousands died" one of the members |called out.
 Later, MT. Asquith continued, unofficial reports were received, which seemed to Ipoint to a very different state of affairs land commission was appointed to in |vestigate. The report of the commission l had been received by the government of India, which was holding it until the
 Indian commander-in-chief had an oppor- .tunity to submit his observations. The Mesopotamian operations had ex- |cited widespread and legitimate interest
 and anxiety, the premier continued, and |incidents had occurred which had aroused |doubt whether the best means had been
 adopted to bring about the ends in view.
 Every step had been taken on the ad- | vice of the military authorities and the
 defects in the medical and transport serv- |ices had been remedied.

Renewal of Submarine
 Activity Openly Tinted

Berlin, July 17.-(via London, July ts)-The active campaign for resump- kion of submarine warfare in it's pre- |vious form has assumed new import |hnce from an article today by Eugen Zimmerman, general director of the Lokal Anzeiger, whose views usually reflect opinions in government circles Herr Zimm erman contemplates the possibility that Great Britain will com pei smaller neutral states to adopt an lnfriendly, perhaps hostile attitude tlose their frontiers completely against them. He then cites in heavy type his own comment on Germany's acceptance bf the American demands in regard to bubmarine warfare, indicating that cir- eumstances might arise later which would make it impossible to adhere to lhe restrictions on the activity of these eraft
 Herr Zimmerman says that eff Great Britain succeeds in making neutrals passively and actively hostile to us, pne important reason for Germany's decision at that time would cease to cx- st. It makes no difference whether 1eutrals yield to British orders through Pympathy or through fear"
 Herr Zimmerman then intimates in , yelled manner that the submarine power of Germany has undergone a Favorable change since spring: evident " meaning that either their numbers pr their efficiency have been increased Considerably. He concludes his article with the assertion that all signs indi- eate new decision on the submarine question will be necessary very soon.

Daily little bands struggle into the city from the barren interior districts, hun gry and ragged. and expecting food and clothing only to meet disappointment when they find nothing.
 A group of refugees, some in pitiable condition, were sent aboard the flagship San Diego yesterday. They told of the trails of the interior, strewn with the graves of refugees and others murdered by rowing bandits for the gold and vaiu- ables they were carrying with them.
