 An official report of the Irish con vention given out tonight says: Aft CT the opening address by Chief Sec cretary Duke, presiding, a committee was appointed for the purpose of ad- vising the convention on the selection of a chairman.

RUMANIAN SOLDIERS
 STAND TO THEIR GUNS
Seven Survivors of a Battery Deco
 rated by Russian Commander.

Petrograd, July 25.-A report of the general staff of the Rumanian army received today says: Tn the south Carpathians troops under General Ro- foza Avocsco assumed the offensive and' occupied the villages of Meresci and VOlochany and captured several hundred prisoners and 19 guns, in cluding some heavy ones. We owe this success to the skilful manoeuver- ing and close cooperation of the Ru- manian and Russian forces and also to the vigorous activity of our allied artillery.
 "The powerfully organized enemy line has been broken on an extensive front The bravery and devotion of the troops was incomparable. Among other incidents one battery lost it's entire personnel except seven men. who continued firing without cessa- ton and finally succeeded in si1enc- ing the encmyS fire. Lieutenant General Stcherbatcheff Commander of the Russian forces in Rumania) dec orated all these men with the St. George Cross.

ACTIVE INTENSIVE WORK
 IN TRAINING CAMP
Interest of Soldiers Increase High
 Hopes of Early Efficiency.

American Training Camp in France, July 25.-(By the Associated Press) There was greater activity in the training camp today than at any time since the American troops reached France, for the preliminary arrange ments having been completed actual intensive work was begun. None of the American commanders is dss- posed to belittle the amount of work necessary to bring their men up to the highest European standards but the spirit with which the troops have undertaken this work has encourag ged the highest hopes of early efficiency
 Trenches were being dug today in the way of practice with an enthu- siasm almost equal to that with which soldiers dig themselves in under act ual artillery fire. These trenches were of full dep:h and were duplf- cates of certain sections of the front line, consisting of front or fire trenches, support trenches and re- serve trenches with intricate commit nication trenches connecting them. The Americans were digging today just as if they hoped soon to be fighting

RIVERS AND HARBOR BILL
 IS ATTACKED IN SENATE
Direct Assault on National Rivers
 and Harbor Congress.

Washington, July 25.-Attacks in the senate today upon the S27, 900 900 rivers and harbors bill center in an indictment by several senators of the national rivers and harbors congress, which maintains headquarters in Washington and carries on an active campaign for waterways improve ment.
 Senators Kenyon of Iowa and Jones Of Washington, republicans, and King of Utah. democrat, led in the criti- cism of the organizations activities which were vigorously defended by Senator Ransdell of Louisiana demo- crat, for many years president of the waterways congress:
 That back fires" have been set in their home states against certain sen ators and representatives by those in- terested in the organizations propa- ganda was charged by Senators Ken Xon and Jones. Senator King declar- ed he could see no difference between the activities of the Rivers and liar bors Congress and that of other or ganizations criticized for illegitimate lobbying.
 Senator Ransdell protested that the organizations efforts have been along strictly legitimate, open and public lines and declared that no one con- nected with it had ever been charged with lobbying among members of congress

COMMITTEE MEMBERS
 CONSIDERING WAR TAX
Subject Promises Much Debate When
 1t Reaches Senate.

Washington, July 25.-While await ing the forthcoming estimates of s5,- OOO,OOO,000 or more under preparation by executive departments to cover war expenses, senate finance commit tee members discussed informally to- day how great a part of the total should be raised by taxation and on what commodities the increases should fall The estimates have been prom ised by the end of the week, and as soon as they are available the com mittee will begin another revision of the war tax bill.
 Sentiment was widespread today that a considerable increase in tax levies would be necessary. Several senators predicted that the 1870, ,OOe.- coo total of the bill as it now stands would be increased to at least s2- oOO,000,000 with an authoriza tfon to cover additional expenses by a new bond issue. Others favored a greater increase in taxes and less bonds or Indebtedness certificates. Most leaders apparently were resigned to a further increase of not less than several hun- dred million dollars. The subject promises much debate when it reaches the senate floor.
 The general feeling seems to be against any basic change in the bill. Committee leaders apparently most generally favor securing the additional taxes by increas levies on income and war excess profits, with addition of few but comparatively minor tax sources.

TWENTY-FOUR BRITISH
 VESSELS SUBMARINED
During the Past Week-AII but Five
 Over 10000 Tons.

l. London, July 25-Twenty- Brit ish vessels of more than 1,60O tons each and three of less than 1 500 tons each were sunk last week by mines or submarines, according to the week ly report on shipping losses One fishing vessel was also lost.
 The admiralty's statement follows: Arrivals 2,791: sailings 2,791. British merchantmen sunk by mine or sub marine, over 1,600 tons, including two previously, 21: under 1,600 tons. three
 British merchant vessels unsuccess- fully attacked including three preVi- ously, Is. British fishing vessels sunk, one
 The announcement of the British admiralty given above shows an in crease of seven vessels of more than compared with the report of the pre- vious week, when fourteen were sunk In the smaller category the loss is one less than given in the report of the previous week while there was a falling off by seven in the number of fishing vessels sunk
 The report of the weeks sinkings of British merchantmen would have shown the low record, except for a couple of days when the Germans had unusual luck. Even with these ex- ceptional days, the total is consid- cred to have been about normal" The U-boats for the previous fortnight had been kept down to a minimum but the current week upward tendency in the curve would not have been unex- pected, in view of the vigorous offen- sive efforts which the Germans. are now putting forward on all fronts and which no doubt are reflected in orders to the submarine commanders to sup port the land offensive by strenuous efforts on the submarine front"
 On the whole, the navy may be said to be fairly well satisfied with the progress being made against the un- der-water enemy and the feeling is that time is all on the side of the all lies. as every week sees -anti-subma- rine methods developing and the CO., ordination of the various parts of the anti submarine campaign improving In the meantime the shfpbuilding pro- gramme is being pressed forward, while in another month the weather and daylight conditions will begin to tell against the submarines.

ALL UNITS ARE NOW UNDER Dl.
 RECT FEDERAL CONTROL
THE SEASONED SOLDIERS
First for France-These State Troops Can be Used for Any Duty the Pres ident May Direct, Just as Men of Regular Army-Those Who Served on Mexican Border May Train in France With Regulars.

Washington, July 25-The entire national guard of the country, with the exception of troops from Califor ria and the southwestern states. was in the federal service tonight under President Wilson's call.
 The remaining units will be brought in. August ,, on which day the whole force of probably ,O06 men will be States and will lose it's status as militia. From that day on, the state troops can be used for any duty the president may direct and will be sub ject to no limitations that do not also apply to the regular army
 $15o,o0o on Pay Roll.
 The first increment of the guard was called out ten days ago. Those called today in the second increment embrace New England. middle west ern and northwestern states and sew cral southern states. Probably more eral payroll. New York, Pennsylva mia and Ohio troops and those from several other states were in the first increment
 With liberalization of the entire force complete after August 5. the ranks of all regiments will then be filled up to full war strength with men from the selective draft lists.
 Best Men For France.
 There have been many things to indicate that guard regiments which are now fairly well equipped and which had the benefi. of the border mobilization. will not be held long at the divisional training camps. If transportation is available, the best of the state troops may be hurried to France at once, stopping only for if nal outfitting before they sail The intensive instruction to fit them for trench warfare will be given at the American training camps in France where General Pershing's regulars al ready are at work.
 Approximately two thirds of the na- tionaI guard of the country was in the federal service tonight under President Wilson's call.
