Herr Appelmann's Case.

The case of the University of Yer.
monts German professor, Herr Appel
mann. SENS to have been reopened to dis
cussion at least by letters from Governor
Graham and Redfeld Proctor, which have
been made public by the Burlington
News. 1t seems that these two trustees
were not present at the meeting of June
%. when by a vote of seven to Ave the
trustees revoked their previous action in
accepting Professor Appelmann's resigna-
ton. Governor Graham says that if he
had been at the meeting he would have
voted against reinstating Appelmann.
Mr.. Proctor, who attended the early SEES
sions of the June meeting says he had
not the slightest intimation that the APP
pelmann matter was coming up and that
if he had he certainly should have voted
against his return to the faculty Of the
university. In the light of these devel-
opments. il would seem as if President
Benton of the University Of Vermont
had considerable to explain, for he is the
one who has been insistent upon keeping
Herr Appelmann in spite Of his pro-Ger-
man activities Brattleboro Reformer.

For July Only 100000 Tons
Is Indicated
Sunk
100000 UNDER WHAT
WAS EXPECTED
An Upward Turn May Take
Place Later - America
Helped Keep Down

London, July 25.--The Evening Stand
ard says many people are puzzled by the
confident optimism of Lloyd Georges
reference to the U-boat campaign when
addressing the Belgians on Saturday. In
the early spring the admiralty found
the losses increasing rapidly while the
efficacy of the counter measures was
still improved. The navy chiefs calcu
lated a steeply ascending curve of cas-
ualtes as day by day the curve length
ened, they warned the government. Ac-
oordingly in recognizing the position that
II these predictions were fulfilled it
would be a matter of extreme gravity,
the prime minister lost no time in warn
ing the nation into taking measures to
economic the consumption of food.
But as the year advances the losses
instead of growing more heavy became
not only relatively but actually lighter.
Instead of the June sinkings reaching
something like 100000 TONS they fell be-
low the record of April, which was about
half million Record for first three weeks
of July suggests that the sinkings for
the whole month may be less than half
those of the April total. In March,
therefore, the position was that of an
the worst. In July we find
the worst far better than was expected.
American help has been one of the many
factors which have improved the situa-
ton This must not induce people TO
regard the submarine menace over. The
danger may only be postponed.

 "A major or minor lea que club which purchases a player will have no right to the return of the amount actually paid by it for his release, if the player joins it, even if he is subsequently drafted into the military or naval ser vice. but in that event all deferred pay ments shall be stayed until the player again reports to the purchasing club and it has had a req sonable opportuni- ty to try him out and determine wheth- CT it desires to retain him.

Responded to False Alarm

Fire Engine company No. 1 had it's first bell alarm Monday night at Il o'clock when the private box of the Nanderman Foundry company on Mansfield avenue was rung by an un- known person. It was evidently the work of som who wanted to find out the speed of the new truck and there was no fire, and he will not prob ably try it again, he did not have any time to spare to make his getaway. The men were in their rooms sleeping when the bell began to strike. The dressed, putting on rubber boots. open ed up the doors of the house. started the engine and took their places on the truck before the No. 9 had been completed by the bell a-d when the last stroke came in they left the house in a hurry. They arrived a the box within q minute after the alarm had been sent in and had returned to the station within four minutes of the start. This shows that there will be no people going to fires in the future and waiting for the truck to arrive as the firemen had returned to the Bank street engine house before many people were aware of the alarm Later in the evening the men were compli- mented by Mayor Dunn and repre- sentative of the Vandermar company on their rapid work.
