OUT REPORT ON LATEST EscA.
PADES OF u-soATS.

Washington. June 5-Enemy subma
rines still were operating of the
American coast up TO late Tuesday.
Announcement by the navy depart
ment disclosed that the raid on Ameri-
can waters had not ended With Mon.
days tale OF destruction. upSetting the
theory that the raiders were speeding

Official Bulletin.
The announcement which naval Of
ficers said contained all the depart
ment knew about Tuesdays activities
OF the raiders follows:
The Navy Department has re-
ceiyed a dispatch from a United
States destroyer taht at $50 o'clock
this morning she interrupted an al
tack by an enemy submarine ON the
French steamer Radioleine about
slxty-fye miles off the Maryland
coast. The destroyer also took on
board two men from the Eward
Baird which was bombed and sink
ing.
"A later report was received stat
ing that the Radoleine had arrived
at an Atlantic port
Two U-Boats Seen.
Reports from survivors who were
aboard the vessels also established
the fact that during the day at least
two submarines have been at work
iii American waters.
They were the U-37 and the U-15r,
and report to the Navy Department
SAYS that one of them at least had
stores to last her three months.
If navy officials have reached a
conclusion as to the size and sea
keeping qualities of the raiders they
have not disclosed the fact. Amy OF
ficers believe, however, that al leas,
one of them is a cruiser submarine
of large tonnage.
Otherwise they find ii difficult to
account for the length of time the
vessels have been able to Turk off the
coast.
Statements OF the seamen held pris
oner on the raiders and later cast
adrift in their boats conflict as to the
size and armament of the enemy
craft.
Carry Three Guns.
Previous reports have indicated that
the cruiser U.boats carry four heavy
guns, while three guns is the largest
number noted by the prisoners The !
fact that some were aboard one yes
sci and some on the other may ac-
count for the differences noted.
One report fixes the number of the |
crew of one boat at seventy-six men. |
That Is almost double the number
usually aboard an S00tonner.
The outstanding fact was that the |
enemy was still taking toll of coast

Should Treat Babies Eyes.
Nitrate OF silver solution Soon After
Birth VIII Prevent Danger
of Blindness.
(Dr, JOHN W. DUKE, state Com
missioner OF Health,)

Dr, JOHN W. DUKE, state Com
missioner OF Health.)
One OF the saddest features in
many cases Of blindness IL the fact
that with proper precautions II could
have been avcrtcd. In our asylums
for tho blind are many children
whose eyosight could have been
saved--nnd saved with compara-
lively little trouble, For very large
proportion OF cases OF blindness are
due to opthalmia neonatorum, or
babies sore eyes" AZ II Is some
times popularity termed, and opthal-
mia neonatorum can be prevented
with practical absolute certainty.
For many years II was supposed
that the victims OF this disease were
doomed to blindness, a compare
uYcly few years ago, however. II was
discovered that II the eyes OF In
fants were promptly treated with Il
solution OF citrate OF silver, danger
OF blindness was averted, Since then
countless thousands of Infants have
been saved from blindness, but II
must be admitted that many Others
who might have been saved have
been permitted to suffer unneces
sary misery through the carelessness
oraignorance OF those In charge.
| The operation OF treating tht
baby's eyes with nitrate of silver
solution is comparatively Simple
one, but at the same time one which
should be performed only by per
son with the necessary skill. since
the eye is too delicate for any bung'
ling. The state board OF health ha'
recommended that this simple oper,
alton be performed in the case OF
every infant soon after birth. IT !,
true that there are cases In which u
may develop that the treatment was
not needed. In that case IT will dt
the infant no possible harm.
one reason why the invariable use
of the nitrate OF silver solution
recommended Is that 1t is not Away
possible to determine immediatel,
the cases In which It is needed anc
those In which It Is not. The trouble
with the child's eyes may be due e
hereditary weakness. BY the tint
this has developed enough to be ap
parent, II may be too late for treat
ment. There have been number
OF pitiable cases Of mothers becom

ated by the sound of bombs or the
bursting of shells
lit is question of shipping. OF
packing, of invoices, even of cables
No one can feel sure now that the
clothes for which thousands OF dol
lars are paid will reach America.
This is not on account Of subma-
rines; 1t Is because the French rail-
roads are needed for troops, and en-
tire trunks of most costly gowns
have been forever lost between Paris
and the coast Added to this ex-
treme uncertainty and loss of money
there are the new laws OF export and
import.
Taking It all in all, there is an un-
easy feeling in both countries that
there will be less buying of French
clothes this summer than since the
Franco Prusslan war. We may get
French inspiration through gowns
that will be sent over, hapha2ard,
through resident buyers, through
cables photographs and sketches,
through written letters and possi-
bly, through crinolines. but one thing
is certain; that the vast amount or
merchandise which has heretofore
crossed the ocean in September and
determined American fashions, Will
not be bought or sold this year.
What then? Are we ready to
launch out for ourselves in any large
and conspicuous manner? ! think
we are,

Trachoma and Biindness.
There are certain number or

highly infectious disease, the princi.
pal agents Of infection being:
The common towel. II has been

trachoma can be transmitted under
such conditions IL evident. Unless
precautions are observed schools
may also be centers of Infection.
Common wash basins, carelessness
In the use OF handkerchief and sim
liar articles, often cause Infection.
Where there is the least suspicion
OF trachoma n physician should be
promptly consulted. BY early treat
ment of this disease serious compli-
cations. sometimes resulting In
blindness may be averted. The
necessity for precautions against tho
spread OF trachoma and for prompt
treatment of existing cases is espec-
