New Tariff Has Allies APP
prevail and That of China
Is Assured

SHANGHAI, June 22.--.The Tariff
Revision Conference has decided on a
tariff on imports amounting to per
cent of the average value OF mcrchan-
disc imports during the years 1925.
This will replace the specific tariff
which was fixed according to values
during the years 1897. 1898 and 1899.
This tariff now represents customs
duties Of less than per cent.
The conference will determine the
values Of merchandise from customs re-
turns and other available evidence. The
tariff will be subject to revision, in
whole or in part, two years after the
war.
The Allied powers have approved of
the new tariff and the sanction of China
is assured, as the arrangement is of
advantage to this country The lega-
tions have requested the delegates to
complete the revision within three
months.

e7 Persons Missing After
the Transport Dwinsk
Is Torpedoed
ri Members of Crew
Reach Port Safely
Submarine Believed Re-
turning From Amer
lean Waters

The British transport Dwinsk, for
msrlv a Russian steamer, s,173 tons,
was torpedoed and sunk by U-boat
about 700 miles east of the Virginia
cspes on June 1s,according to reports
reaching here yesterday. The trans
mort, under American charter. is said
to have had no troops aboard, and was
westward bound.
Three boats with sixty-seven men,
bers Of the crew are missing, accord
ing to dispatches from Washington,
and are being sought by naval craft.
The rest of the crew, eighty-one men,
were landed at various Atlantic ports
by steamers. To boatloads were re-
.norted to have reached this port. Ad-
miral Gleaves, of the transport feet,
declared he could give no information
about the survivors landing here.
2 Dispatches from Hampton Roads and
Bermuda stated that one lifeboat had
been picked up and brought by steam
er into the former and another by
sailing vessel into the latter port. 1t
is believed those survivors brought
here were on board a government yes
eel and were taken in charge by Naval
Intelligence officials.
U-Boat Shells Sinking Ship
Reports indicate that the submarine
was not seen until after the torpedo
had struck the ship. The crew, it is
said, took to the boats after the vessel
settled, when it was seen that it was
impossible to use the guns. The u
boat, according to the report to the
Navy Department. appeared on the sur
face and fired nineteen shots into the
ship.
In view of the fact that the vessel
was attacked far outside the European
zone of submarine activities, officials
and marine experts here declared the
Dwinsk probably encountered a U-boat
headed for home after participating
in the raid off the American coast.
Another theory is that the German
raiding submersibles had been driven
from the coast by fear of the feet of
fast chasers and Allied destroyers
which set out after them.
"From the positions given of the at
tack on the Dwinsk it can be seen that
the U-boat was directly in the track OF
the w-powered boats plying between
European and Southern and Gulf
ports," said a marine expert. "These
vessels offer tempting target to the
German submarines, without much
danger Of counter attack. as a laroe
number Of such vessels are unarmed."
Tae Dwinsk was formerly the C. F.
Tietjen, of the Scandinavian-Americ
Line. She was bought from her origi-
nal owners by the Russian East Asiatic
Company in 1918, renamed and engaged
in passenger service between New York
and Archangel, Russia. With the
breakdown Of the Russian government
the ship was secured by the British
government and placed in service as
troop transport.
The vessel was built in 1897, at the
harlsnd e. Wolff Shipyards, at Belfast
She was twin-screw vessel, 1926 feet
in length. She was last reported at an
Atlantic port on April 20.
At the time Of the Russian revolu-
t'on the vessel was lying in a Canadian
port and was taken over by the Brit
ish by special arrangement with the
Aerensky government.

rise to the top OF the can and juice at
bottom. If turned on the side when
sealed and allowed to remain until cool
the berries are well mixed with juice
and will so remain; are much better
than the old way.
Currant Jelly-Pick over the cur
rants, leaving them on the stems. At
ter washing put into a sack sufficient
ly large to hold them, tie up, place the
sack in graniteware preserving ket-
tie, put enough cold water on to cover
the sack (no more), boil thirty min
utes. Pick up the sack, hang up to
drain until It quits dripping through.
Take two cups Of the juice. put into
preserving kettle; when 1t boils add
two level cups of granulated sugar and
boil from ten to fifteen minutes and
you will have jelly as clear as crystal.
Four boxes of currants make twelve
glasses of jelly. If making all at one
time the jelly would not be so light in
color.
Wartime Preserve-This recipe will
make twelve glasses: One pound dried
apricots, two pounds Of dried prunes,
juice Of three lemons, rind of one
lemon. one pound sugar.
Wash and soak prunes and apricots
over night in separate vessels. In
morning cook separately in same
water they soaked until done
Stone the prunes, add apricots, juice
