to the "swaying attitude of our govern

clared out so-called prosperity. chiefly
due to traffic in munitions Of war, will
meet with an abrupt termination when
peace shall have been established.
The report added:
"The closing of factories and plants,
with subsequent lack of employment, will
necessarily emphasize social contracts
and promote increased socialistic propa-
ganda. 1t then becomes our patriotic du-
ty to cooperate in equalizing these con-
a basis Of Christian principles and soli-
darity.''
Referring to Mexico, the report said:
"Our neighhor republic, unfortunate
Mexico. cannot find quietude. Owing to
the swaying attitude of our government
the perpetrators Of infamy and crime
against the Catholic church and her SER
wants have taken hold Of the government
there. We hope and pray that this poor

On Russian Front

In the East the Russians are appar.
emily centering their efforts on their
new drive toward Kovel. Berlin ad-
m1ts that Gen. Brussiloff's troops
nave crossed the Stokhod at one point
and Petrograd says that the Russians
have pushed on beyond the river and
captured a series of heights on the
road to Kovel. Fierce fighting con-
tinues on the crest Of the Carpathians,
where the Russians are battling with
in sight Of the Hungarian plains. No
INDICATION has b~en given, however,
OF the strength of the forces engaged
In this region and it is uncertain as
yet whether Gen. Brussiloff is making
a serious effort to invade Hungary.
At Salonki
The offensive on the Saloniki front Ia
slowly developing and the fighting Is
growing in intensity on the $50 miles bat
tie line from Lake Presba to Lake Dol
ran. Both sides claim minor successes,
but apparently no action Of first import
ance has occurred as yet. An interest
ing feature Of this situation is the ad-
vance Of Bulgarian detachments toward
the Greek seaport Of Kavala This port

the purpose of the Bulgarian move is not
made clear by the dispatches.
Cruisers Sunk
Two British vessels were lost In the
North sea engagement, the Nottingham.
5400 tons, and the Falmouth, $3.50 tons. The
crews Of both the ships were saved with
the exception of 80 men. The Germans
also claim to have sunk British destroy
er and damaged a battleship. but this Is
denied by London.
According to the British admiralty
the German fleet avoided an engage
ment with the main British forces and
returned to port when it's scout report
ed the approach Of strong British
squadrons.
London reports that one German sub
mraine was destroyed and that anoth-
er was rammed and possibly sunk.
This is the first appearance in the
North sea of strong German naval
forces since the battle of Jutland on
May 81 The first news that the Ger
mans had left the shelter of their mine
fields and fortified bases was brought
to Holland by trawlers which reported
sighting a German squadron of Is war
ships including large cruisers. This
fleet was accompanied by two Zeppe-
Inns and was steering northwest in the
region Of White Bank.

New York, Aug. 2o.-Three princes Of
the Roman Catholic church the apos-
tolic delegate to the United States, the
papal nUncio to Brazil, scores of bish-
ops and other dignitaries, several hun
dred priests and thousands Of laymen
participated here today in the celebra-
ton of a solemn pontifical high mass
in st. Patrick's cathedral. The occa-
sion was the formal opening of the fifth
annual convention of the American
Federation of Catholic Societies and
the 61st annual convention Of the Ma
tional Federation Of German Catholics.
Seldom in the history Of the church
has there been SO notable a gathering
Of ecclesiastics outside of Rome.
It was estimated that more than 5000
persons crowded into the cathedral,
while twice as many more congregated
in the streets surrounding the great ed
ifice to see the procession which pre-
ceded the mass.
At the opening Of the ceremonies,
Monsignor Michael ]. Lavelle, rector Of
the cathedral, read a message from
Cardinal Gasparri, papal secretary of
state, in which he said:
The Holy Father will watch with a
loving and paternal eye the federation OF
Catholic societies of the United States
holding their annual convention in New
York He sends earnest wishes that their
friendly discussions shall accomplish
much for the welfare and honor of the
Catholic church in your favored land.
And, while hoping for the most consoling
results from your concord, activity and
wisdom, grants most heartily the apostol-
ic benediction to the federation and to all
who take part in it."

A tta k e d by Submarines of
Which One Was Destroyed
and Another Rammed

London, Aug. 21.-Two British light
cruisers. the Nottingham and Fal-
mouth, were sunk Saturday in the
North sea by German submarines
while the vessels were searching for
the German high seas fleet, according
to an official announcement issued by
the admiralty shortly before midnight
One German submarine was destroyed
by British while another was rammed
and possibly sunk, according to the
admiralty statement which follows:
Reports from our lookout squad
rons and other units showed that
there was considerable activity on the
part of the enemy in the North sea
Saturday, the 18th.
The German high sea fleet came
out, but learning from their scouts
that the British forces were in con-
siderable strength, the enemy avoided
an engagement and returned to port.

two cruisers by submarine attacks
H. M. S. Nottingham, Capt. C. B. Mil
Ter, and H. M. S. Falmouth, Capt John
Edwards.
"All the officers Of the former were
saved, but 3S Of the crew are missing.
All the officers and men Of the Fall
mouth were saved, but one leading
stoker, Norman Frye, died of injuries.
AN enemy submarine was destroyed
and another was ran:med and possibly
sunk.
There is no truth in the German
statement that a British destroyer
was sunk and a British battleship
damaged"
