Presumably General Liggett's corps
is regarded now as a part Of General
Pershing's mobile forces as distinct
from troops in the army organization
which is being built up to take over
definite American sector on the battle
front.
The appearance OF American troops
at five points along the line between St.
Mihiel and the Swiss border indicates
that this whole stretch OF $50 to 200
miles of the front is rapidly becoming
mericanized.
The definitely placed American sec

the Moselle River is included, and at

into position on the right OF the line.
III these indications are correct, the
positions on both sides of Chateau
Thierry and near Montdidier, further

lines join, are held by the American

Ukraine Fears That
urks May Get Crimea
tBy The Associated Press

MOSCOW. Friday. June 14-The
ukrainian government has sent a note
tc the German Ambassador urging that
the Crimea be included within the
boundaries of the Ukraine. The new
Crimean government is Mahometan
and has expressed a desire to be placed
under the protection of Turkey. This
is alarming to the Ukraine, the com
nerce of which requires Crimean ports.
A Moscow despatcl, OF June II
stated that a bourgeois government,
composed exclusively of Mahometans
and headed by Said Ahmet, was re-
ported to have been formed in the
Crimea. 1t was stated that Said Ahmet
had said that the status cf the Crimea
with regard to Russia had been dis
cussed with Germany.

Al Kola and for miles inland along
tbe railroads there are acres of mill
tary supplies, running all the way
from locomotives and cannon to cloth
ing and provisions. Most of these
we're shipped from America and Eng
land. 1t is known the Germans have
been exceedingly anxious to obtain
nossession Of these Supplies.
1t is believed now that the situation
again has assumed q critical turn
through the determination of 'the Fin
ish Whix Guards to reassert their
claim AMI to seize the railroad. which
affords the only means of communica-
tion in winter between the Entente
Allies and America. on one side, and
interior Russia on the other, as

The probable attitude of the Boil

event that Finnish invasion of Carelia
is in progress can only be coniectured
and it is possible that the crisis may
develop the real position of the Soviet
and cause the Allies to regard it as
either pro- German or friendly.

American Action Toward
Germany's Ally Hangs
on Reply to Note
Attack on Consulate
Confirmed by Spain
Washington's Attitude De-
pends on Character of
Turkish Troops Involved

WASHINGTON, July 1.-The United
States government has formally pre-
sented to the Turkish government the
report that Turkish troops attacked d
and sacked an American hospital at
Tabriz, Persia, and seized the Ameri-
can consulate there, with request for
an explanation.
Confederation Of the facts of the
Tabriz incident have been received
through Spain, supporting the rumor
sent from Toheran by Minister Cald-
we'll.
1t was said at the State Department
to-day that the character Of the Turk
ish troops responsible for the indig-
nifty might have an important bearing
on the attitude of the United States in
the matter.
Upon Turkeys reply depends whether
the ally Of Germany shall be added to
the list Of Americas enemies. 1t is
thought possible that the troops which
raided Tabriz were Kurds or other
irregular soldicry operating without
orders from or the sanction Of the
Ottoman government. In that case the
incident might not assume great i'm
portance, particularly as SO far as has
been learned there was no loss of
American lives.
All Americans were reported out of
Tabriz some time ago. The Spanish
consul was in charge OF the American
consulate and it is supposed that he
also was looking after the interests of
the hospital, a Presbyterian institution.
Minister Caldwell reported only the
most mcagre details on June II and
efforts through Sweden and Spain to
confirm the account reaching him until
to-day have been unavailing.
The Spanish government transmitted d
the confirming report to the State De-
partment Saturday and the demand for
an explanation from the Turkish gov
ernment was mmediately dispatch ed
through the Spanish Foreign Office.
New-York tribune., 1918-07-02

26 and 27 were marked chiefly by the
attempts Of the enemy to raid our
lines.
Patrol Left Supplies
On the night of June 25 to rs a
large German patrol made deter
mined attack, which was rcrulsed after
tWo ''.o hours Of brisk fighting. The con-
ultlon OF the ground, as it appeared on
.he morning of June rs, gave clear evil
dence that the Germans had sustained
casualties. fact which was further
borne out by the amount Of material
left behind. This material included
eighteen bags Of grenadcs, each bag
containing ten grenades; rifles, wire
cutters, knives, gas masks, caps, and
TWO lengths of steel pipe charged with
explosive, which were obviously in
tended for blowing up our wires An
other feature of the attack was the use
by the Germans of liquid fire. This
was complete failure, rome of the
ire reaching our troops. During the
night of juno 26 to June 27 hostile
raid took place between IL and
o'clock. Details will be furnished later.
1T is reported that the Germans at
one point have been attempting to
make friends with our men. On the
morning of June 25 they made signs
signifying Good morning. They had
deposited come kittens on the para
pets of the small posts, and threw a
package of cigarettes into one of our
lnrbed-wire entanglements. Our SOL
diers do not reciprocatc these atten-
tions.
"Raiding activity has not been above
normal on either side. The fire Of the
German artillery has been light and
has not included any marked concen
tration. His machine gun fire has con-
tered shots distributed on various
points along the front Of our sector.
The same is true Of his rife and
grenade fire. A few hand grenades
have fallen in front Of our trenches
The German airplanes confined their
activity to reconnaissance duty. Most
Of them remained over orr lines only
for short periods and some remained
at very high attitudes. IN some cases
our anti-aircraft batteries succeeded
ir driving them off. The German bal
looms showed normal activity.
Women Farming Behind Lines
Behind the German lines the most
interesting feature was egain the ap-
pearance OF considerable groups of
men and women engaged iii agricult
ural work in the fields These groups
are at present largely engaged in maxi
lrg hay. The proportion Of women is
apparently large. The usual individu
els and small groups passing from post
to post, Signalling, observing our lines
and performing other routine duties
were noted. There was also the usual
movement Of wagons, trucks and trains.
In the matter of works, the enemy is
showing considerable activity in re-
pairing those already constructed anG
in making additions at several points.
The works are Of the customary sort.
One of the working parties was broken
UP by our grenade fire on June 81"

Colonel Calls Defamer

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, July 1.-Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt was incensed to-
day when he received telegram, in

which reflected on his sons.
The telegram was from Victor p. Bu-

follows:

Colonel Roosevelt quickly answered
as follows:
"All four OF my boys are in fighting

one of them is an aid to any officer
Theodore is a major in the 26th Infan-
try. He has just been partially blinded
and his lungs injured by German gas,
but refused to leave his battalion, and
has been cited by order of General
Pershing for conspicuous gallantrv in

has received the Military Cross for gal
lantry in battle, and is now captain of
artillery under Pershing.
"Archie is captain of infantry. His
