VISITING MANY
SICK SAMMlES
Spends Some Time Each
Week With Men in Each
of 100 Hospitals.

Southampton. England. July "a
Colonel Albert W. Swain, the Ameri-
can consul at, Southampton probably
has visited more American soldiers in
hospitals than any other man in this
country. For three years he has paid
a weekly visit to every American in
any military hospital within a thirty
mile radius Of this city, and this radi-
us includes over a hundred hospitals,
British, Canadian and American.
Colonel Swain, who is a Civil War
veteran from Iowa, began his work
long before the United States came
into the war. 1t was only u few
months after England came into the
fighting that he heard one day of an
American in British uniform-who
had been brought wounded to a Brit
ish tent hospital in a nearby town.
He and Mrs. Swain paid the man a
visit that same afternoon. and con-
tinded to pay him a weekly visit until
he was discharged from the hospital.
From this beginning, the work of
Colonel and Mrs. Swain expanded
gradually. They developed a regular
Intelligence Service in all the hos
pitfalls sin. their district. through which
they were Immediately notified of the
arrival Of any man who claimed
American citizenship or who had

(By The Associated Press)

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
ON THE MARINE, July 1O.-Amer-
lean pursuit planes flying in squad
ron formation penetrated German
occupied territory north of Chateau u
Thierry for a distance of fifty miles
to-day and chased several German
machines which they encountered.
The Americans secured consider
able information and observed the
Preparations being made by the en-
emy.
They flew over many newly con-
structed German flying fields, in
cluding one believed to be occupied
by the famous Richthofen flying cir
Gus.
The planes were at a height Of
5000 yards in the course of a great
part of the flight All the Ameri-
cans returned safely.
Lieutenant Quentin Roosevelt, the
youngest son Of eX-President Roose-
welt, brought down his first German
airplane this afternoon in a fight
north of Chateau Thierry.
Lieutenant Roosevelt, with three
other pilots, was flying at height
Of 5000 yards eight miles inside
the German lines, when the machines
became separated Soon after
Roosevelt saw three planes which
he thought were his companions and
started to join them.
He was approaching the machines
from the rear, when he saw his mis-
take, for the planes were German.
Roosevelt Immediately opened fire,
and after fifty shots tracers pene
trated the fusilage of the nearest
German machine and it went into a
spinning nose dive, falling through
the clouds 1000 yards below.
The lieutenant is certain it must
have crashed, for no pilot voluntar-
lily goes into a 2,000-yard spinning
nose dive. The two remaining Ger
man airplanes attacked Roosevelt,
but he managed to make good his
escape and returned to the field,
himself and his machine un-

LONDON, July 10.-Seldom do
German military man9uvres wait
on political developments, but such
seems to be the case to-day. The
resignation of Won Kuehlmann and
the rumored elevation of Admiral
Won Hintze, the ultra jingo, to the
Foreign Secretaryship are indicative
of a lively political battle in which
the extremists gained the day.
simultaneously come signs of Ger
man activity in France after pause
lasting month. Won Kuehlmann
made his famous speech just at the
close of the Austrian disaster and
week after General Mangin stopped
the German push for Compiegne.
Count Hertling may follow Won
Kuehlmann into retirement The
majority and minority Socialists who
refused recently to vote war cred
its and the Reichstag majority that
a year ago decided on a moderate
course now face another test, and it
is of interest to the Alliessto know
whether they will stand up and fight
