U-BoAT SINKS OIL TANKER.
Frederick r. Kellogg Sent Down in
Entrance of New York Harbor.

New York, Aug. 15.-A German sub
marine, approaching the very gates of
New York harbor, sank the oil tanker
Frederick r. Kellogg off the Ambrose
channel Monday night. Thirty-five
members of the crew brought here re-
ported that seven others are missing.
These survivors were picked up by an
American steamship. The Frederick
r. Kellogg was a new tank steamship
of 1927 tons gross register. valued at
more than 81 100000. Under command
of Capt. c. II. White, she was on her
way from Tampico, Mexico, to Boston
with cargo of approximately 10000
barrels of crude oil
Torpedoed without warning, the
Kellogg sank in three minutes. said
members OF her crew on coming
ashore. The force of the explosion
was terrific. they declared, and the
seven missing men who were in the
engine room are believed to have been
killed. No submarine was seen, ac-
cording to Captain White.

General Bans Massed Blows on Ae-

count Of Reduced Strength.
With the British Army in France,
Aug. IA captured enemy secret
order signed "Ludendorff' lays stress
on the necessity of economizing men.
The order asserts that the two ele-
ments essential to the future conduct
of the war are to maintain every
where our fighting strength and the
spirit of offensive"
The order is frank in explaining
that, because of the reduced German
strength, it frequently will be impos-
sible 10 hold continuous trench lines
and recommends instead the creation
of centers OF resistance.
The document warns commanders
that should the enemy obtain foot
hold within German lines they must
consider carefully whether counter
attack is necessary or worth risking
large number OF lives.
Another captured order informs the
German regiments that they must
provide their own defenses against
low-flying allied airplanes, as the Ger
man aircraft resources are so low that
they cannot be expected TO fight off
the enemy while they are being en-
gagged ION reconnaissance work" This
order adds that complaints from units
harassed by lowflying allied planes
will not be forwarded

Rome, Aug. 15.-ltalian forces have
occupied Monte Mantello, Punta Di
Matteo and the spur southeast of Gina
Zigolon, north of the Adamello re-
gion, according to an official state
ment issued by the war office. They
have taken 100 prisoners.
North and south of the Somme the
Germans have lost further important
ground. In the former region they
have evacuated their positions over
five-mile front to the British north
of Albert, while in the latter they
have been beaten back in the hilly
and wooded district just north OF the
Oise river by the French.
German front line trenches at Beau
mont Hamel, Serre, PuisieuXauMo
and Bucquoy have been found unten-
able by the enemy in the face of the
recent activity by the British along
the line from Albert to Arras, while
the French have persevered in their
violent attacks against the Germans
on the sector which dominates the
lower portion of the Picardy plain and
the Disc valley, and have encroached
further upon the Lassigny massif and
the Thiescourt plateau, and farther
south have captured the important
town of Ribecourt.
Unofficial reports have announced
the capture of Lassigny by the French
and of all the German positions be-
tWaa,, tho uactat, oF
sur-Somme and Etinehem by the Aus
tralians.
From the Somme to the Disc, except
in the latter region where the French
have made further gains, the Ger
mans seemingly have had further sue
cess in holding back the allied troops
and still are in possession of Chaulnss
and Roye, upon the capture of which
the efforts of the British and French
have been centered.
The giving up of front line trenches
north of Albert may mean that the
Germans foresee the ultimate success
of the American and British operations
along the Somme. In any event the
retrograde movement seemingly indi-
Gates that the ten-mile salient be-
tween Beaumont Hamel and Bray on
the Somme, with Albert its apex, must
give way in order that the German
front here may come into alignment
with that in the south across the
Somme. Probably the Germans pur-
pose to readjust their front from the
Somme to Arras.
Aerial activity continues intense.
Forty eight German machines we're
accounted for Monday and seventy
four tons OF bombs dropped on mill
tary targets behind the enemy lines.
Berlin reports the shooting down of
twenty-nine aeroplanes.
Along the Vesle the Germans have
not repeated their Intellectual attacks,
but are bombarding the Franco Amer
lean lines with high explosives and
gas shells. 1t is announced that the
American first army, which has just
been organized, will hold the western
front south of the Marne." which
probably means from st. Mihiel to
Switzerland, where the allied positions
are near the German border or be-
yond it.

Washington, Aug. 15.-Official dis
patches Wednesday from American
Consul General Poole in Moscow lift
ed the curtain for a moment and re-
vealed an amazing train OF events in
that city. Consul General Poole, after
Witnessing the violation of the French
and British consulates and the arrests
of the consuls general and their
staffs, destroyed his code book and
papers and turned the affairs of the
American consulate over to the Swed-
ish consul, at the same time demand
ing safe conduct from the country for
himself and his associates.
French and British citizens have
have announced they would hold them
as hostages because of the attack of
the soviet government by British and
French troops at Archangel.
Members of the French and British
military missions stationed in Mos
COW were refused permission to leave
the country in spite of previous
promise of safe conduct.
1t is possible that since the send
ing of Consul General Poole's tele-
grams which began July 90 and con-
tinued until Aug. 6, the situation may
have changed, because it is reported
that Lenine and Trotzky, the Bolshe-
visit leaders, have fled and the soviet
government in Moscow may have been
overthrown.
