BIG GAIN BEEN MADE BY YARDS
 OVER RAIDERS

WASHINGTON, D. C., June 12.- The production of the American shipyards since the inauguration of the German submarine raids along the Atlantic coast has far exceeded the sinkings of the enemy ships. Since May 25, when the activities of the German raiders were started. the tonnage produced by the ship building plants has exceeded the tonnage sunk by over 100000.
 During the time between May 25 and today there have been 21 ves- sells produced and delivered to the federal shipping board. while during that time the submarines in the western Atlantic have succeeded in sinking only 10 boats. Many of the boats sunk by the enemy in their raids did not compare in size and capacity with the ships being turned out by the plants. It was stated at one time that the enemy had sunk at least 17 vessels along the Atlantic coast, but this number was found to be incorrect, as the total reports now show a loss of only 10 vessels. The largest and most important of these boats sunk was the Porto Rican liner Carolina, the rest being for the most part smaller boats.

OF HUN
 ESCORT VESSEL
 NOT CONFIRMED

WASHINGTON, D. C., June H. A statement is issued from the navy department in which it is said that the report brought by the survivors of the torpedoed steamer Pinar Del Rio to the effect that the enemy submarine was accompanied by a mother ship has found no conflrma- tion. These survivors stated that the submarine which sunk the steam CT was being escorted by ship which could have been for no other purpose than the carrying of sup. plies for the U-boats.
 The officials of the navy say that they believe the enemy might use captured vessel to carry their sup plies The navy department Is thor oughly convinced that the enemy has no submarine base along the Atlantic coast.
 The Pinar Del Rio was sunk off the Virginia capes last Saturday. and the survivors assert that the submarine was accompanied by a vessel which was painted gray, with one funnel amidships and of about 6.000 tons' capacity. This report was immediately forwarded to the navy department. which in turn for warded it to the many boats SCOUT ing the Atlantic in search of the raiders. The waters of the Ameri- can coast are literally swarming with vessels on a close search of the enemy, and reports from the various boats say that nothing has been seen of vessel of the de- scription given by the survivors.
 After a thorough search has been conducted along the Atlantic coast the naval officials are sure that there is no base from which the enemy raiders are working. The boats on the Atlantic will, however, not relax their vigilance, but are to continue their patrol of the coast line. It is not believed that the Germans have abandoned their &C., tivities along the American coast.

BARTENDER IS THOUGHT TOBE
 ENEMY AGENT

PHILADELPHIA, June 12.-The authorities today took into custody an Atlantic City bartender thought to be an agent of the German gov. ernment The officials are convinced that this man is member of a band of German spies and that he has been instrumental in the sinking of some of the American boats off the New Jersey coast.
 The bartender is thought to have been signalling submarines at sea as to the sailing or location of cer- tain vessels which were later at- tackled by the U-boats. He is ac- cused of swinging curtain back and forth at window in front of lighted gas jets. The evidence un. covered by the officials proves that this man was signalling in this man. ner for some purpose, and it is firmly believed that it was in order to aid the enemy.
 The room from which the sig. mailing was done overlooks the Brig. antine shoals north of Atlantic City. and the open ocean. It has been proven that these signals could have been plainly seen by any .-subma-

WHY IS WOOD
 STAYING HOME
 ASKS JOHNSON

WASHINGTON, D. C., June 12.-- In d speech delivered in the senate today by Senator Hiram Johnson of California the former governor of the Poppy State called upon the administration to explain the reason for General Leonard Wood being kept in the United States instead of having been sent to France with his division. The senator stated that the country is entitled to know the reason for this action on the part of the administration.
 General Wood was at one time the commander of the eastern divi- sion, the most important military de- partment in the United States, He was later given the command of department in the south being re- lieved from his post at Governors Island. Some time ago the general made an extensive tour of the west ern front, and after returning to the United States was rendered the command of the western department with headquarters at San Francisco. General Wood requested the war de- partment that he be given com mand which comprised more active service than the western department. This request was granted by the war department and the general was assigned to one of the numerous cantonments in the country. Senator Johnson now wishes to know why Wood has not been placed in active service in France. to (which posi- tion, the senator contends. General Wood is entitled

rine which might have been laying off the New Jersey coast and ex- pecting them.
 The bartender was followed to this city by the federal officials and when placed in custody by them he strenuously asserted his inno- cence of any intentional wrong. The authorities think that it is entirely probable that there is band of German spies operating in the large cities along the Atlantic coast for the express purpose of furnishing information to German submarines. A thorough investigation is being carried out in an effort to locate any persons whose actions have been suspicious.

DISCUSSION OF
 TREATIES WILL
 NOT BE PUBLIC

WASHINGTON, D. C., June 12.- The disapproval of President Wilson killed the proposal for the open dis cussion of treaties that had been in troduced in the senate. The pro. posal was for the purpose of making public all negotiations connected with the signing Of treaties between the United States and other coun- tries.
 It is the opinion of the President that treaties should not De given publicity until all negotiations have been completed. The supporters of the proposal did not strongly insist upon any action on the measure as soon as it became evident that it did not meet the approval of the President.
 The negotiations of treaties were intended, by the proposal, to be giv- en full publicity at the time they were being conducted. It was in tended that the public be informed of every step being taken by the diplomats. Such an action does not concur with the opinion of Presi. dent Wilson, who says that this would not be for the best, but does think that treaties should be made public after the conclusion of all

PRUSSlAN SAYS
 GREAT PART OF
 FRENCH BEATEN

AMSTERDAM, June 12. A great part of the French army has already been beaten, according to a state ment credited to the Prussian war minister, von Stein. Berlin dispatch es state that in speech before the reichstag the Prussian minister was very optimistic regarding the suc- cess of the German armies.
 Won Stein asserted before this body of Teutonic legislators that the so-called Foch army of reserves no longer exists. He stated that these men had already been thrown into the battle against the Germans and that the Germans in their successful advances had reduced the French reserves to an insignificant number.
 'The success of the carefully pre- pared attacks of the magnificent army of the crown prince" said the war minister, against the combined French and British forces on the Chemin des Danes front have in- flicted one of the gravest defeats the entente forces have suffered during the war"
 In his address to the reichstag the Prussian war minister stated that there was every hope for a German military victory. He as- serts that the French no longer have any reserves to call to the front and that the Americans are not rendering any material aid to the allied forces. The .Prussian prime minister dwelt at some length on the victories of the forces under the command of the heir to the German throne.

LARGE ESTATE TO BE SEIZED
 BY OFFICIALS

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, June 12.- That the $4O,OOO,O00 properties of the late Henry Miller will be seized for non-payment of federal income taxes. is the statement made today by Justus s. Wardell, collector of internal revenue. The deceased mil lionaire is indebted to the United States in the sum of $6,000,000 for income taxes, none of which has ever been paid into the treasury.
 The properties of the California stockman comprises holdings in Cali fornia, Arizona and Nevada and are for the most part large ranches and grazing lands. Henry Miller started in the cattle business in 1857 with partner named Charles Lux. They acquired 8O0,00O acres of land in California and large properties in nearby states. These men were suc- cessful from the very start of their enterprise. At one time the two partners owned SO,O0O head of cat tie and 100000 sheep. MT. Lux died in 1887, and the business was later incorporated by MT. Miller, he re- taining the majority of the shares. It is thought that this property will be sold in order to realize the amount due the government for taxes.
 ACTION BROUGHT
 SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, June 12.- Action will be brought by the heirs of the Miller estate before District Judge Doolin to prevent the pay. ment of the income tax which the government says is due from the estate. This action will be of no avail, however, as the government will retain control of the property until the entire taxation of $6,OOO,OO0 and all costs has been paid.
