AMSTERDAM, une 10.-German newspapers report the discovery of a plot to free former Czar Nicholas while he wa sat Tobolsk and take him to Sweden, and thence to America.
 The chief conspirator was Prince Paul Dolgorouki, grand marshal of the imperial Russian court under the czar. Eight hundred thousand rubles were placed at his disposal with which to bribe the guard
 The plot failed through the indis- erection of a servant, who disclosed the plans.
 A Petrograd dispatch of May 13 said that the Soviet government had removed the czar and his family from Tobolsk to Ekaterinburg in conse- quence of the discovery of a plot to assist him to escape

WOODEN AND CONCRETE SHIPS

General Goethals remarked or an
 occasion, not so many months ago.
 that birds were still nesting in trees which he was asked to metamorphose
 into ships in time to serve the coun- trys urgent need. The prettiness of
 the idea, plus General Goethal's repu- tation as @ practical man, persuaded
 the country that it was a great folly to spend time and money in building wooden ships. Also, it was half in. clined to resent the Presidents actionI in retiring General Goethals along with Judge Denman, whose advocacy of wooden shipbuilding begot the quarrel. which absorbed so much of their time and the countrys patience. It would have had General Goethals retained and the birds left undisturbed in the trees which Judge Denman wanted to. make into ships. Now the shipping board reports that wooden ships have been launched at the rate of more than one day for the last four weelzs." One can imagine that the re- tirenent into which Judge Denman has been relegated will be consider ably frightened by that official proc. 1amation. Certainly it vindicates his conviction in most sig ignal way, and gives the country occasion for grat- ification that his idea was not ban ished with him.
 There is another and still more en- couraging item in the shipbuilding news. Tests made of the Faith" have so strongly convinced the Shipping Board of the practicability of concrete ships that it has let contracts for eighteen such vessels with a total of 117,500 tons. The performance of are not merely good enough to serve in an emergency, but that, to quote the dispatch, they are "believed to be fully equal, if not superior, to any steel ship of the same size and equal power" For the needs of our present | emergency, they are in some respects distinctly better. They can be built more quickly and cheaply, for example, l and with unskilled labor for the most part If by some magic of manage ment, such as is expected of MT. Schwab. we had suddenly increased our shipbuilding capacity by 50 per. cent. the country would have rejoiced in the belief that we were assured of all the transportation needed to en- able us to exert the utmost of our military power against Germany and whatever the percentage, it seems pretty evident that our shipbuilding ca- pacity has been greatly increased by the proof that concrete ships are as
 good if not better than steel ships, because it is a kind of shipbuilding that will not much tax the supplies either of labor or materials that are used in building steel ships.

MANY ATTACKS
 OF SUBMARINES
 UNSUCCESSFU Ui

hO4NDo1N, June lO NDy mdll) Tn the weekly return showing the number of British merchant vessels attacked by submarines occurs the phrase, British merchant vessels unsuccess- fully attacked" The admiralty records show that hidden away in that phrase is many a story of gallant seaman ship.
 During the month from March 15 to April 15 of this year sixty-four ves- sels were attacked unsuccessfully by U-boats.
 The submarine which attacks a de- fensively-armed merchantmen has no longer a sure thing" During the past month there were several cases ill which even two U-boats were un- successful in an attack on a single steamship. There are several cases, also, in which the steamship has sam- pletely turned the tables on the Ger, man and sent him to the bottom in stead.
 Even sailing ships frequently give a good account of themselves against a submarine, although in the nature of things they are much less easy to maHeuver than 6 ship with steam power. The following is one such case recently reported to the admiralty:
 "A sailing ship was proceeding leis- urely on her course when the lookout sighted a submarine on the starboard quarter. She lay quiet until the U-bOat came within range, and then opened fire. The gun crew knew their business, for they soon found the tar get, and out of thirteen shots, eight direct hits were scored. The U-b0at, which had been twisting and turning to get out of range, suddenly went down by the bows, and her stern stood clear of the water for nearly a min ute. Then she dived perpendicularfy and came up again at an angle Of 30 degrees above the water For a short space of time she remained in this position, and then disappeared like d stons.''
 Early one afternoon the captain of a steamship in ballast saw the track of a torpedo coming directly for his ship. By a quick swing he succeeded in avoiding it. Then the U-boat came out of the water and opened fire, one of his shells piercing the deck and wrecking the second cooks cabin The steamship replied valiantly, and the encounter continued for four hours, the steamship going at top speed all the time and keeping the submarine dead astern A shot from the steamship struck the submarine amidships, but failed to do sufficient injury to force the German to dis continue the action. But after four hours the steamship got the subma- rine into a smoke cloud and a shell appeared to burst close to the U-boats bow, after which the enemy quit the chase.
 In another attack, which was sue. cessfully beaten off, the merchants mans gunners were handicapped ow. ing to the deck giving way under the gun early in the action. Every time the gun kicked the platform under it jumped. The man who was sighting it was injured, but the crew continued firing, and eventually forced the sub marine to discontinue the action. One of the first shots from the submarine
 broke the wireless aerials of the steamship, but the wireless operator repaired the damage under fire ant got a message through to the neares
 British destroyers.

CARRY FOOD TO TRENCHES
French. Employ Canine Couriers to
Take Supplies to the Men in
Most Exposed Positions.

Trench warfare certainly interferes
with the fighters meals. After cap
turing the enemy's position in partic-
ular, is the fighter at loss to know
how he will get his regular rations !;
for no sooner does the enemy find
himself dispossessed of his original
trenches than he opens up with an in
tense barrage fire designed to prevent
ammunition and food from reaching
the new occupants.
The French army believes it has
solved the problem of carrying food to
men in isolated trenches, in its lunch
dogs, says the Scientific American.
Carrying light lunches and coffee, and
even cartridges for the men in the first
line trenches when the combat Is hot
and protracted these splendid trained
dogs are more certain to get through
barrages than men. Each dog Is
equipped with a sort of double bag,
strapped tight over it's body. and pro-
vided with numerous pockets for food.

piles.
1t is at the military dog-training
grounds at Paris that dogs are pre-
pared for this service. Not only are
these four-legged couriers taught to
avoid the enemy and beware Of tricks.
but also to crawl on their stomachs In
order to escape flying bullets. Special
masks are provided for these dogs

The German WAY.

remember one day having passed
through a small farming village very
badly burned and shattered, not by
shells, but by explosions from inside
the houses. / was just about to ask
my officer why this village had been
so punished, when, as we came outside,
my attention was attracted to con-
spicuous little flat-topped hill, with its
level summit quite clear of the low
woods that covered the hills sides. The
top had been cleared and smoothed
so that it could be planted in grain,
and it stood out a vivid and beautiful
green, in contrast with the dark tree
covered slopes. 1 spoke of the hill
and it's conspicuous top to my officer.
