Rear Admiral Joseph Strauss, chlef of the bureau of ordnance of the United States navy, told the house committee on naval affairs that the general board of the navy had not yet determined whether the battle ships and cruisers to be authorized in the pending naval bill should be equipped with sixteen nch guns. Ad- miral Strauss indicated that he be- lieved the sixteen inch gun was prac- ticab ble for use on large naval vessels. A Admiral Strauss told the committee that latest fourteen inch guns of the navy. having a range of 24,O0O yards as mounted, or fourteen land miles, were the equal of the fifteen inch weapons of foreign navies because of the greater muzzle velocity. He said that at target practice last year three twelve-inch shells were driven through heavy armor plating at 12,000 yards.

following despatch to the Budapest
Azest on that date, this being the only
news from Czernowitz to reach the

Population Very Uneasy.

side Czernowitz and the guns are con-
stantly at work, while Russian aero
planes are frequently seen circling
above the city. The population, espe-
cially the large Jewish section, is very
uneasy. People are seen getting their
carts and households ready for an i'm

st. Louis, June 17.-President VIII
son has saved civilization for human
ity by his course with respect to the
great war, John w. Wescott, Attorney
General of New Jersey, declared here
in renominating Mr.. Wilson for the
presidency before the Democratic con
Vention.
Today, he said, the nation is at work
and at peace. Four years ago, com
merce languished, industries halted
and panic hung over the business
world.
"Mr. Wilson," he continued, "dyna-
mited the monetary dams and let
credit flow to the remotest corners of
the land, it's spray dashing even upon
foreign shores.
with Lincoln, the emancipation of
the chattel slave, he will live forever

To have conquered Mexico, Mr.. Wes-
colt said, would have destroyed our
prosperity, have made the South Am
erican republics hate us and have for
feited the respect of the world.

zen maneuvering with the weapons of

Petrograd Announces Additional Sue
cesses as Result of New Offensive
Along Southern Front.

Petrograd, June 1.-THE capture OF
an additional 100 officers and $4,000
men is announced by the war office.
The Russian successes in the offensive
along the southern front are continu.
ing, the statement declares. This
makes $4,000 persons taken during
this offensive.
A dispatch to the Central News from
Petrograd says that much of the eff.
fectiveness of the Russian artillery in
their great Galician drive is due to
the use Of big Japanese guns. These
guns are said to be more powerful
than any that the Russians have had
heretofore and are charged with shells
filled with new explosive, the de-
structive power of which is terrific.

Athens, June 1.-THE Bulgarians
are withdrawing the majority of their
forces from the Saloniki front to the
Roumanian border, according to re-
ports received here. The shifting of
the troops from the lines along the
Greek boundary is regarded here as
affirming the rumors that Rumania is

William ]. Bryan addressed the Demo
cratic convention, casting aside his
repertorial pencil for the time being
to loosen the usual outpour of persua-
sive oratory which was received with
the inevitable enthusiasm.
Reporter Bryan spoke his piece nice
ly. He praised the Democratic party.
He praised the President. He even
compared him with Andrew Jackson
who is little less an idol of Democracy
than Thomas Jefferson himself.
Many Laws Written.
after 16 years of waiting, our
fortunately won the Senate and the
House at the same time.
To-day those who stand for the
Democratic party are able to go be-
fore this nation and not only give a
reason for the faith that is in them,
but give a defense of the administra-
tons claims to the confidence of the
people.
You may take all the administra-
tions from the beginning of the repub-
lie, and you will not find as many
laws written on the statute books of
great importance to the people, as you
will find written in the last three years
by Woodrow Wilson, a Democratic
President
Briefly Mr.. Bryan then referred to
the tariff revision, the federal reserve
law and the strengthening of the anti
trust laws.
mo president since Jackson said
Mr.. Bryan, has had to meet such
an unholy combination of the powers
of high finance and even Jackson him
self never met the situation better
than Woodrow Wilson met it. We
have just commenced to learn what
the federal reserve law means for this
nation.
