Washington, July 7.-All Germans, formerly connected with either tue German embassy or any other one of the many consulates in America, have been requested to leave the United States.
 Notification that their presence in America is undesirable has been sent to them by the state department.

 Two of Germany's allies still have their representatives here. Abdul Hussein Bey, charge of the Turkish embassy, pleaded to remain. His wife is an English woman and on the ground that her health might be af- fected by going to Constantinople, the .Bey has been permitted to stay here The Bulgarian minister also is at his legation.

London was subjected yesterday to an air raid on perhaps larger lscale than any previously attempted by the Germans.
 A score or more airplanes flew over the center of the city, diving down suddenly to comparatively low altitude, dropping their bombs quick ly, and speeding off southwards.
 Their explosives caused some damage in the heart of London, and killed 37 persons and injured Al.
 These official figures show the casualties to have been not nearly so heavy as in the big raid of June 13, when 151 persons were killed and 430 injured.
 Four of the German raiders were brought down, one by army aviators at the mouth of the Thames, and three after an engagement with British naval aviators 40 miles out at sea, on the return trip.
 British air men had ventured across the channel, and French airmen, who went out looking for the raiders and failed to find them, did such effective work on other German aircraft that seven hostile machines were account eG for within brief period.
 Straight over the city flew the squadron of raiders, pursued by bursting shrapnel. The sun was shining brightly but the sky was over. cast with haze such as is favorable to raiders. Notwithstanding the haze. however, the Germans were plainly visible to the people in the streets. The raiders appeared most suddenly and few persons realized that rail was in progress until the sound of bombs began to be heard.
 The Germans were travelling at tremendous speed. They appeared to be at a lower altitude than fin tho last raid, when they exacted such 3 heavy toll of life in London.
 For about quarter of an hour the raiders dropped a steady rain of bombs.
 Glass Strews Streets. the city resembles that in the streets of New York and it's suburbs follow ing the explosion on Black Tom is- land in the upper New York harbor last July.
 1ne people in the capital are urging the quick reprisals be taken.
 The West End and fashionable northwestern residential suburbs hal superb view of the approach of the visitors. From the further northern fringes of the metropolis the raiders swept onward in fairly close forma- tion. more than score in number.
 The squadron, which had been fly ing high, then began a swift toboggan downwards, It's speed increasing tre- mendously and the planes soon reach ing level evidently less than a thou sand yards in their sweep toward the central objectives.
 Meanwhile from all directions anti aircraft batteries were working like dotted the air around the incomina 2 raiders with snarling, vicious black puffs of smoke more numerous than the planes. It seemed impossible for the raiders to completely escape from the atmosphere of curtain fire sur- rounding them. The raiders. how ever, pursued their course, holIJps their cargo of bombs, until they had crossed the suburban district and outlying parks.

General Brusilloff Pushing His Effective Forward

Unofficial Adyices Declare TeutOn Forces Are Yielding Before Con- tinued Advance of Russians.-Ac.

Associated Press Summary

Associated Press Summary
 General Brusilloff is pushing his effective on the Russian front with energy, and rapidly extending it's scope. He has begun an attack in the region of Pinsk, 150 miles north of Galicia, within which the forward movement had previously been con- fined, and is attacking with succe ss in the region northwest of Stanis- law, southeast of mberg.
 At Pinsk, semi-official advices an- nounce the German defenses as yield ing to the Russian fire. The town itself is reported in flames.
 The Galicia campaign is meeting with vigorous Austro German de- fense and admittedly the Russians are being held up in further attempts to advance in the Karniuski region. = The sweeping claim of Berlin of a signal victory against the Russ ians, however, conflicts sharply with the Russian announcement of sub stantial gains in several sectors.
 The big guns are roaring all along the line on the France-Belgian front.
 Infantry movements developed in Belgium, where a sharp thrust by the British carried their line forward slightly, in the .neighborhood of Wytschaete.e
 Berlin, after alying emphasis on the artillery activity, noting it par ticularly in some sectors of the Brit ish front and characterising it as spirited all along the line held by the French from St. Quentin to the west ern Champagne district, reports two attacks by the French in the last named district, from Mont Carnilet to the Hochberg. The French penetrat- ed the German line on each occasion, but both times were driven out by counter attacks, it is asserted.
 The sinking of a British torpedo boat destroyer by German subma- rine in the North sea, with the loss of eight men, is announced in London.
 American Base Ready.
 Paris, July 7.-Training bases for American troops in France are ready for occupancy. -
 They include aviation. artillery, in- fantry and medical bases.
 The section of the battle front even- tually to be occupied by the Ameri- cans has been approved by Major Gen. eral Pershing. The location is a mili- tdry secret, and no actual time has been specified for American participa- tion in the fighting.
