German Admiralty Seeks Means to
Offset Falling Off-People Grow
ing Skeptical of Success.

By the Associated Press.
COPENHAGEN. June II, via London,
June 1S.-The German admiralty is
showing no haste to publish the subma-
Of them or even approximations have yet
been issued, though announcement of the
million-ton result in April was made
May 6, and the figures for March were
published April -.
The delay tends to confirm the i'm
preston that the May estimates will
show a considerable falling off from the
April figures information from Germany
being to the effect that between 1000
and 100000 tons We're sunk In Nav. 1t
also is thought here that the German
admiralty Is endeavoring to prepare the
public for the situation by long disser-
tatfons that results are to be measured
not by the actual tons sunk, but by the
guns and men which the necessity Of
army ships keeps from being sent to
the front.
The Associated Press correspondent
today had an opportunity to converse
with a man Just returned from Ger
many. who said responsible Germans
had quite abandoned hope of forcing
an end to the war through submarine
activity, and that the people in gen
eral now are declaring in increasing
numbers that they have been deceived
and misled by the preachers of subma-
rine ruthieSsn"sa. who had promised
them speedy peace. but merely had
brought the United States into the
war,

fishing vessels are incomplete, but a
three week total was IS.
Submarines in the period given attacked
299 ships unsuccessfully and the weekly
percentage Of unsuccessful attacks has
ranged from 81 to 20. During the last
week given-the seven days ending with
June Sit was 58.
Arrivals and sailings in British ports
since the intensive submarine campaign
began have averaged about $500. but
these include channel sailngs.
The British figures do not give the ton
mage of vessels sunk. but officials here
say 5000 tons probably would be fair
average for vessels of more than 500 tons
destroyed. Computing the total at that
average and putting the average of the
smaller ships at 900 tons. the total loss
during slightly less than four months
submarine warfare would reach l.745, 900
tons. or about 250000 tons less than the
entire worlds shipping output during 1916.

CHICAGO, June 1s.-Members of the
Italian commission to the United States
today had another round Of sight
seeing here and an official reception
before the end of their visit to the
middle west. where they have been re-
ceived with enthusiasm. Tonight the
distinguished visitors. headed by En-

Senator Gulielmo Marconi. who, as in
ventor Of the wireless telegraph. has
been the center OF interest, will leave
for the east.
Mr. Marconi missed one of the social
functions contrived for the intertain-
ment of members of the commission
yesterday on their arrival from Burl-
ington Iowa. The senator's trunk
failed to arrive, and when he called for
fresh linen there was nothing for him.
Prominent Chicagoans waited for Mr..
Marconi to come from his room, and
when he did not appear sent a message.

tifully Mr. Marconi partook only of

of reprisals in the shape Of ceaseless
attacks on German towns and cities
in order that their populations may ex-

force the German authorities to cease

AKRON, Ohio. June 1S.-Smashing a

Grossvater Park yesterday in the
fourth inning. Benny Kaufr enabled the
Giants to win from Washington in an
exhibition game by the score of l to O..
Although both teams got a man on
the cushions in each succeeding inning,
sensational fielding prevented more
runs from being counted. Zimmerman
and Herzog, for the Giants. and Foster.
for the Senators. repeatedly pulled
down drives which looked good for
hits.
A dispute occurred in the fifth inning
which nearly stopped the game, Wash
ington claiming that a decision by I'm
pire Gaehler was wrong. With Crane
on first base and two down, Gallia
smashed long drive into the crowd
in left field. Jumping the rope, Kauff
caught the ball and Gaehler called
Gallia out, although ground rules had
been made providing that all hits into
the crowd should go for two bases.
