GERARD'S SILENCE
PUZZLES CAPITAL
Officials Worried by His Failure
to Explain Talks.

Washington, June 5.-The publication
in German newspaper Of another
peace interview with Ambassador
Gerard. while generally believed to be
a fake, proved disquieting to Admin
istration officials to-day. Mr. Gerard
has not yet offered an explanation Of
the interview printed in a Munich
newspaper two weeks ago, and some
officials believe he may be seeking a
recall. 1t has been rumored for some
time that Mr.. Gerard would like to
quit his post and get back into New
York state politics
Mr.. Gerard's first interview was re-
gdrded here as an amazing impro-
priety, and Administration officials
feared it might jeopardize President
Wilson's prospects as a mediator II
was thought best, however. not to re-
buke the Ambassador until he had had
an opportunity to explain. His failure
10 do so. coupled with the account Of
a new interview even more objection
able than the first, has caused deep
concern.
Another thing that the State De-
partmCnt wants explained Is why Mr..
Gerard has never reported on the pun
;yhmert inflicted on the submarine
commander who sank the Sussex. The
rccues. for that information was
lent four weeks ago and the Ambassa-
dor has never alluded to it in his re-
pcrts TO the department

Force Defenders to Re
treat Along Canaglia
Valley.
ITALIANS RETAIN
POSINA POSITIONS
Infllct Heavy Loss on Foe Near
Monte Alba and in
Lagarina.

Paris, June 5.-Thc Italians are offer
ing such stubborn resistance along the
whole front in southern Tyrol that it
is only by hurting greatly superior
forces against them that the Austrians
are able to make any Roadway at pres
ent. Even surprise attacks. scores Of
which had previously Melted the invad-
crs substantial gains, lately have broken
down before the vigilance of the Al
pine troops. This was we'll illustrated
yesterday, when the Austrians tented
an assault between Monte Giovo and
Tierno, and at the same time struck a
real blow at the Conf Zugna position.
The alert Italians rcpulsed the on
slaught and inflicted heavy losses on
the enemy.
East of Monte Cengio the Austrians
on Saturday night attacked the Italian
positions with greatly superior forces
and pushed them back along the Ca
naglia Valley, capturing the town OF
Ceisana and taking $500 Italians pris-
oners. The Italians still hold tena-
ciously to the western slopes Of Monte
Cengio.
In the Posina sector the Austrians,
afte, repeated violent attacks against
Monte Alba and Col Posina, were hurled
back in disorder, their ranks almost
decimated.
"The Italians are offering stubborn
resistance with strong forces along the
main ridge south of the Posina Valley
and before the Austro- Hungarian front
between Monte Cengio and Asiago,"
says the Austrian official statement
Accordingly, violent engagements were
begun in this district. The Austro-Hun-
garians drew nearer the Bostelide po-
sitions and gained considerable terrain
east Of Monte Cengio. The town Of
Ceisana already is within the Austro-
Hungarian lines. The enemy was re-
pulsed wherever he made counter-at-
tacks. Yesterday $500 Italians were
made prisoner"

U-Boat Sank Tipperary,
Claim Made by Berlin

London, June 5.-An official state
ment issued by the German Admiralty
to-day says:
"On the 3lst of May one of our sub
marines off the Humber sank an Eng
lish torpedo boat destroyer, which. ac-
cording to survivor, was the Tip
perary.
The British armored cruiser Eurya-
lus was set afre by our forces during
the battle of Skagerrak and was com
pletely burned out"
In connection with the German Off
cial statement the British Admiralty
issued the following:
"No British destroyer or any other
British warship was destroyed off the
Humber or anywhere else by a sub
marine or any other agency since the
action of the 3lst Of May.
"The Euryalus was not present in the
North Sea during this battle, and there
fore was not sunk by German fire.
1T would appear from the fact Of
these two false allegations being cir
culated by the German Admiralty that
they are anxious by any means to exag-
gerate the British casualties, which al
ready have been fully and completely
announced"

battle which was issued here to-day
gives the first detailed picture of the
progress of the great engagement be-
tween the German High Sea Fleet and
that of the British. Many details of
the engagement are suppressed for
strategic reasons, leaving unsatisfied
for the present the German public's
thirst for interesting touches in re-
gard TO the individual achievements
of the German warships and the man
ner in which the mighty British YES
sells were sent to the bottom. The re-
cital meets clearly what is character
lied as the British attempt to explain
defeat By the statement that the Ger
man sea forces in the action were
much larger than those which the
British were able TO bring into play.
This account declares explicitly that
twenty-siX of Admiral Jellicoe's most
powerful battleships, including six Of
the most modern Queen Elizabeth class,
and the entire British flying wing, COM
posed of battle-cruisers equal in every
respect except armor protection TO
dreadnoughts, were engaged in all but
the early stages OF the day battle. The
fleet thus assembled surpassed in ton
mage and weight of broadsides the Ger
man force engaged, was at least
equally modern and was far speedier
than the squadron Of German pre-
dreadnoughts, which, numbering along
at Is or 10 knots, were soon left far TO
the rear by their swifter consorts, out
of the main action.
For obvious reasons the recital
leaves untold the tale of damages sus-
tanned by German units and the losses
in personnel. 1t says nothing of the
brilliancy in battle tactics displayed by
Admirsls Scheer and Hyper, the
smoothness and precision with which
the German ships maneuvred and the
deadly sureness of the German marks
manship, although il is an open secret
that these three factors were largely
responsible for the achievements of
the Germans.
1t is shown that the Germans on this
occasion, unlike the Doggerbank en-
gagement of cruiser squadrons, were
able TO choose their distance and fight
considerable portions of the battle at
ranges of about eight miles-now
ranked as moderate distance at
which the German IL and II inch guns
were virtually as effective in penetrat-
ing power as the big-mouthed 13s, las
and los with which the modern British
giants are armed. Furthermore, they
arc far superior in rapidity of fire.
Naval experts have minated that
this was one Of the most decisive fac
tors in the titanic struggle. German bat
tleships and battle-cruisers were able
to shower the British with a hail of
shell which, at a range of eight miles
and sometimes even closer, smashed
and riddled British armor belts ard
wrought havoc to ships vitals. The
ponderous British projectiles natu-
rally were no less effective, but the
Armstrong and Whitworth monsters
could land scarcely one punch TO each
two from the vicious Krupp 11-inct ers
The hay weather was Germary's
friend, as it necessitated action at
closer range.

.SEYDLITZ SUNK
IN BATTLE, REPORT
Continued from page l

visited the wounded in the hospitals at
Wilhemshaven.
In view of the latest report of the
Admiralty on the naval battle of last
week the press and public are devoting
their attention to computing the losses
of the two navies and the effect the
engagement is likely to have on future
naval warfare. The British estimate
of eighteen German ships lost as com
pared with fourteen British is accepted
BY the majority and the result is now
claimed as a complete victory for the
British feet.
So far as the German denial Of the
British claim is concerned, 1t is pointed
out that the Germans did not admit
the loss Of the cruiser Elbing until the
arrival of some survivors from her in
Holland, and this is cited as contirma-
ton that the Germans conceal their
losses until forced by circumstances
to reveal them. This is made possible,
IL is argued, by the fact that the Brit
ish losses occurred in daylight and are
known to the Germans, while the Ger
man losses took place IN twilight or
after dark.
It is questioned by many whether the
Admiralty does wisely in giving TO the
world an inventory OF the damage the
British suffer, or whether the alleged
German policy Of admitting nothing an
opponent cannot prove may not be
more in harmony with the conditions Oh
modern warfare.
Should the British estimate of the
German losses prove correct, naval
writer's say IL will be many long day
before the German feet shows itself
again in the North Sea, and even should
the estimate prove TO be an excessive
one the damage done to the German
battle-cruisers will put an end 10 raids
on English coasts. After the Dogger-
bank battle the Derfiiinger and Moltke
we're FIVE months in dock, and 1t is be-
lieved that the German ships of this
class engaged in last weeks battle were
more severely damaged than the two
named, which were IN the action in
which the Bluecher was sunk.
The result Of the battle. IL is also
suggested, puts an end 10 the German
ambition, which many believe they were
attempting to realize last week, Of
forcing a way through the British
blockade for few fast cruisers, which,
if the scheme had been successful,
would have undertaken TO raid Allied
shipping in the Atlantic. With the loss
of three, If not four, hight cruisers ana
damage done to others, Germany. it is
argued, now has not the ships suitable
for this undertaking
Another advantage claimed from the
outcome Of the battle is that it relieves
the pressure on the Russian army wing
in Courland, to which the German feet
was giving valuable support, while the
sinking of nine German destroyers and
the damage done to others will make il
easier for British submarines to enter
the Baltic and cruise there. Ii is al
ready reported from Copenhagen that
German cruisers have been withdrawn
from the Courland coast, while Germsn
destroyers have not been seen for
week in the southern Baltic.

AMERICAN FLIERS
In FURIOUS FIGHT
German AerOs Tried to
Wipe Out Squadron,
Paris Hears.
BY FRED Il. PITNEY.
lBy Cable 70 The Tribune

Paris, June 5.--According to letters
received in Paris from American svi-
ators at the front, the German aerial
attack on Barbecue on June was an
attempt to wipe out the American esca-
drille. Fourteen German ayiators at
tackled the town, and bombs fell so fast
that Kirrin Rockwell wrote: 81 thought
sure I'd be killed on the ground and
felt pretty sick-as when ] get mine
| want to be in the air."
As soon as the Germans appeared all
the Americans possible, led by a French
captain, got into the air. Victor Chap
man, Norman Prince, Elliott Cowdin
and Bert Hall were away in their ma
chimes in five minutes, and the battle
took place over the town. The French
captain, Cowdin and Prince were all
forced down. The Germans blew off the
captains gasolene tank with explosive
bullets and also blew of Princes am
munition box, while Cowdin's machine
gun was choked.
Hall and Chapman pursued the raid
ers until the French escadrlle from
Toul arrived. The French brought
down two Germans. Rockwell was I'M
able to take part in the fight, as his
machine was damaged in battle two
weeks ago and was still unrepaired and
his extra machine was wrecked by q
bomb.
Sergeant Lovebury a d James Nc
Connell were flying over the German
lines when the raid occurred. Neon
nell met the raiders on the way back.
In relosding his machine gun he
dropped his ammunition while two FOX
his machine when he landed in a field
pitted by shells and smashed his ma
chine. Lovebury returned 'ithout see
ing the raiders. The American Red
Cross and the ambulance squad at Bar
le-Duc worked under fire rescuing the
wounded.
