PARIS, June 25.-(Havas Agency -Acknowledgment
by Foreign Secretary Won Kuehlmann that Germany cannot
be certain of winning the war by force of arms, caused an iRr
sensation in the reichstag, says a Zurich dispatch
TO the Petit Journal. His predictions that the war might last
through a fifth winter was received in silence and there was
much CONSERVATION among the members of the right. The de-
bate which followed the foreign secreary's speech was very
stormy, pan-Germanist speeches being interrupted by the left.
A dispatch from Geneva says that exchange OH Berlin
and Vienna weakened on the receipt of the secretary's speech.
The mark fell $50 and the crown LOS. Allied exchanges con-
tinued firm.

Valley City, N. D.. Sept. 10
North Dokota's Fourth Liberty Loan
campaign was opened in Valley. City
Sunday afternoon, at q meeting of
loan workers Of the south central
counties addressed by Wesley G. Nc
Dowell, state loan chairman, and
Tracy r. Bangs, of Grand Forks.
The gathering, well attended by VAL
ley City residents as well as by
Visiting loan workers, was held in
the Valley City normal school audi
torium. 81
Chairman Mcdowell, in opening
the meeting, declared that North Da-
kota would be called upon this time
to do at least three times as much
as it had been called upon before;
that one county in the state will be
asked to subscribe 100000, less
than twice the. sum the whole state
was asked to subscribe in the first
loan, and that another North Da-
kota county has been apportioned
$500, 900 more than the whole state
was asked to raise in the first loan.
'tAnd North Dakota is going to- do
it," said Mr.. Mcdowell. I'VE want to
be the first state in the union to
reach our quota, and by Saturday
night, September 2S we feel certain
that we will be well over"
East Must Carry Load.
Mr.. Mcdowell explained that the
eastern third of the state will be
asked to take the greatest portion of
the bonds because of the bountiful
crops in that district, while the
western counties, less fortunate in
the matter Of a crop will not be call
ed upon to carry as much Of the loan
load.
The speaker paid a high conpli
ment to Valley City and Barnes
county because of the large number
OF business people it has sent into
the nations service.
Mr.. mcdowell, addressing himself
particularly to the farmers, called
upon them to invest of this years
profits in bonds: to liqutdate pay
ments on bonds previously purchas-
ed, and to pay for their new bonds
Immediately. He said there viii be
another bond issue next spring. and
that it is up to the people to be in
shape for handling that bond by
promptly paying for the ponds they
take in this loan.
Must Give Up.
I'VE have given up only the things
we haven't needed so far in this
war" said Mr.. Mcdowell, and it is

SCENES
AS SURVIVORS OF
GAL Way CASTLE
PLYMOUTH
Passengers of Torpedoed
Ship, Mostly Women
And Children
. nv -Asaoc.iatan Press.n

Plymouth, Sunday, Sept. .15.-Heart
rending scenes were witnessed here
when hundreds of survivors of the
torpedoed steamer Galway Castle
were landed at Z O'clock Thursday
morning The passengers were most
ly women and children, and 1t is be-
lieved that whole families have been
lost. Among the survivors were tots
scarcely able to walk, crying in vain
for their parents. Parents were
searching in all directions for news
Of their children and women were
seeking vainly for their lost husbands.
1t mattered, nothing that warm, dry
clothing was distributed to take the
place of the scanty attire survivors
snatched as they left the ship. Their
one thought was to get news of their
relatives and friends.
There's, no reason to doubt that the
vessel was torpedoed without the
slightest warning. The explosion oc-
Cured between the engine room and
stock hold, a fact which is taken to
rule out any possibility that the ship
struck a mine. The explosions caused
comparatively little noise but caused
the ship to buckle in a most extra
ordinary manner. She was injured at
the extreme bottom and was bent and
torn clear to the. upper deck and
seemed likely to break in two at any
moment.
In spite Of the extent Of the damage
done to the Galway Castle, some Of
the crew declared that the impact was
hardly greater than that of the ves-
sci humping. heavily against the side
of a quay. The inrush of water was
tremendous. One engineer was swept
into the tunnel from the engine room
and drowned.
Fearing that the liner, would found
er at any moment, Captain Dyer or
dered the boats Lowered and issued
life belts to all passengers. One boat
