RUSSIANS OCCUPY BUKOWINA
Austrian Crown Land Falls Into the
Hands of the Gar.

London-That Russian forces now
occupy the entire Austrian crown land
of Bukowina was officially announced
by the Russian general staff. The Of
fetal statement says the possession
of the province was completed by the
capture Of the town of Kimpolung, In
the southern part of Bukowina, at the
foot of the Carpathians. In the taking
of the town more than 1000 Austrian
soldiers were captured.
Violent attacks on the Austro-Ger-
man forces which have countered the
Russian offensive in Volhynia are be-
ing continued. The Berlin war Office
announced that all these attacks,
made repeatedly with strong forces,
had been repulsed
On the western front, says Berlin,
the Germans have repealed vigorous
French attacks north of Verdun, made
In an effort to regain lost ground.
The British have developed pre-
nounced artillery activity along the
part of the Franco Belgian front they
hold from La Bassee canal to the
Somme according to Berlin. The Brit.

SOUTHERN ENJOYS
URGE MEDIATION
ATiN.AMERIcAN DIPLOMATS
URGE cARRANZA TO YIELD
TO UNITED STATES.
EARLY REPLY LOOKED FOR
Carranza Must Comply With the De-
mands of the U. S. and Release
the American Troopers.

MISUNDERSTANDING the refusal
of the United States government to en-
terrain any suggestions from the South
American governments OF mediation
in the Mexican crisis, the Latin-Ameri-
can diplomats advised their govern
ments TO urge General Carranza TO
yield to the demands of the United
States as the only means OF prevent
ing war.
1t is known that Carranza had some
hopes that the Latin-American move
would succeed to the extent OF at least
giving him a chance for sparring fof
more time, but with the mediation
plan squelched at the outset the issue
is now squarely up to the FIRST chiet.
Carranza must comply at once with
the demands of the United States for
the release Of the American troopers,
held prisoners Mt Chihuahua, and re-
pudiate the orders Of Trevino before
there can be any prospect of peace
full solution of the issue between the
two governments.
Plain intimation to this effect was
given by Secretary of State Lansing
to the Bolivian minister, who went 10
him as the spokesman OF the other
in-American diplomats to suggest
mediation.
President Wilson expects reply to
his demands within the next two or
three days. What it's nature will be Is
not known. If it is a refusal the pres
ident will lay the matter before con-
gress and ask authority to take what
ever steps he may regard as neces-
sary.
officials of the administration have
taken into consideration the possibili-
ty that Carranza may make his answer
a declaration Of war; and the concen-
tration of Carranza troops in the VI
cinity OF Chihuahua City where the
American troopers are being held, is
regarded as ominous.
The Mexican embassy however holds
out the hope that CarranZa will go
10 the limit in his efforts to avoid
a clash and the view is expressed that
If war is declared the initiative must
be taken by President Wilson.
Special Representative Rodgers, at
Mexico City, advised the state de
partment that although he received
n copy of the American demands he
had been unable 20 locate General
Candida Aguilar, the Mexican minis
ter of foreign relations, for the pur
pose Of presenting them.

news was printed in the London

the statement:

Province. They were forwarded by g

of the skirmish, being dated severa

/ There were no telegraph wires, no

been dreamed of. There were no

Journalism in America was then
In its swaddling clothes. The race Of
the enterprising journalist to outfoot
fleet-footed Time had not then begun.
There was not the intense rivalry Of
today between metropolitan papers,
with their specials and war extras-to
say nothing of baseball extras. There
was, too, a similar lack of activity on
the part of editors in London.
The newspapers in Boston and 9th
err nearby towns at that time were
published weekly, usually on Monday.
News of sanguinary events, IL they
occurred during the week, was neces-
sarily held for publication until the
following Monday. It was not sur
prising, therefore, that the news OF
the battles of Lexington and Concord
was not printed in Boston until April
25-for the idea of issuing an extra

MERCHANT VESSHSSUNKS Since
BEGINNING Of WAR NOW 1854

per cent Norwegian losses remained
about the same as In the preceding
month. The greatest activity on the
part of submarines was noted in the
Mediterranean, Greek and Spanish
shipping being affected more severely
than for some time past. Japan. which
has escaped losses in recent months,
lost two ships in August.
Submarines Sink &c Vessels
A feature Of the months record was
the comparatively few number OF cas-
es In which the sinking of ship YVES
not reported as the result of torpei =
ing. Sixty-five of the vessels lost were
reported 20 have been destroyed by
German or Austrian submarines; only
three resulted from mines, while the
causes OF other losses were uncertain.
The steamer Weser, the only German
ship destroyed during the month, was
sunk by an Allied submarine. The at
tacks OF submarines in the North Sea
were confined principally to trawlcGs
and small craft.
The Stampalia, an Italian steamer
of 5000 gross tons, was the largest
ship sunk during August and was larg-
er than any vessel sunk in recent
months. Very few ships of any con-
siderable size were destroyed.
Ships sunk in July but not included
in last months totals in the issue OF
August are, as reported since that
date. the Dutch steamer Mas, 1874
tons, sunk by mine; the British
steamer Teano, 1907 tons, torpedoed:
the Swedish schooner Preference, 222
tons, cause uncertain; Norwegian
lighter Mary. 51l tons, torpedoed.
v. S. Lost None in August
Great Britain continues to top the
list OF nations which have lost mer-
chant ships as a result of the war, the
total British tonnage DESTROYED having
reached the amount of 1,775,611 gross
tons, or considerably more than half
OF the total tonnage of all flags
destroyed. France is second with a
total of 214,503 tons; Germany third
with lS7,72S tons; while Italy's losses
have passed those of Norway's and
she now ranks fourth, having lost 49,.
tss9 gross tons, compared with III .64l
for Norway The United States did
not lose ship last month.
