Attacked
LOSS OF JUSTICIA
is SEVERE BLOW

WASHINGTON, July 25.-The loss Of
the British transport Justicia is ad-
mitted by officials here to be a severe
blow. The loss was confirmed in
an official despatch 10 the Navy Depart
ment from Admiral Sims. The makes
the third British transport sunk in a
week. the Carpathla having been lost
on the coast OF Ireland Wednesday and
the transport Barunga Tuesday. Eleven
OF the Justlcla's crew were lost.
Naval officers here believe the Ger
man Admiralty is following new lines
! or strategy in planning these attacks.
! The Germans appear TO have attacked
! the justicia with U-bOats en- mass and
TO have operated at a considerable dis
tance or shore In order 10 catch the
vessel after her conveys had left her.
IL Is clearly established that a num-
I ber OF U-boats operated together. il Is
| assumed. in advance OF detailed in
formation. that the huge liner was con-
voyed until nightfall, after which she
was left to rely on her speed and her
anti-submarine nets.
These nets have already saved many
ships, and in the present instance are
understood to have made the work OF
the U-boat commanders very diflcult.
But the British Admiralty probably did
not reckon with the ship having TO bat
tie with a whole nest Of submarines.
Heretofore the Germans have seldom
concentrated more than two U-bOats on
any one ship, especially a transport re-
turning empty from abroad.
Naval officers are mystined by the re-
kaN Lii
twenty-four hours with the U-boats be-
fore being finally sunk. They cannot
yet understand how a fight OF such du- |
ration could have been conducted with |
out destrOyers or other rescuing craft I
coming to her assistance. excepting on
the theory that the attack occurred at /
a considerable distance OF shore. and /
some time after the conveying vessels /
had left the Justicia.
10 is regarded as possible. but not
probable. that the wireless OF the liner 4
was shot away in the first stages OF the
battle, thereby rendering it impossible 1

official dispatches that the Justicia |

For reasons not disclosed both the
British Admiralty and the Navy De

information concerning the sinking OF

given the first news.
There is reason 10 believe that the F.

took and were therefore able to con-

ration Could Account for His
Unprecedented Action.

Mr.. Wedderly's wife was gone and
he was under the painful necessity of
having to shift for himself, even To
the extent of hunting for his hat, as
he was now doing. He had appar-
emily exhausted every conceivable
place where a hat loves to hide when
its owner is in hurry. Every nook
and Granny in the house that he
could recall as having been the place
of refuge of his headgear on former
occasions was absolutely hatless.
Wherever he looked his hat wasn't
there.
The situation was fast becoming
desperate. Finally, when hope al
most had fled his face suddenly as
Sumed n diabolical grin. 1t was the
last resort He went to the clothes
closet and looked in. There was the
truant hat. In a moment of mental
alteration he had actually put the
hat where 1t belonged. He resolved
that it should not occur again. An
other such experience might wreck
his mind entirely.

M-
AuStria's suggestion of "uonbind-
ing" conference of all the belligerents
to make clear their war aims and peace
demands met with the promptest kind
of rejection by the allies, President
Wilson taking the lead in refusing to
consider the idea. In two sentences
he replied that Americas terms had
been repeatedly and clearly stated and
therefore no proposal for such a CON
ference would be entertained by it. In
this Mr. Wilson was heartily supported
by the entire nation, and his position
was also thoroughly approved by the
allies of the United States. Austria'S
suggestion, made with the consent of
Berlin, admittedly was merely n

pectation in Hunland that it would re-
Ceive favorable consideration.
No better reception was accorded the

asked the nation the Huns have raw

even suggesting that they would make

have committed there, and making the

BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD.

With a regenerated and reorganized
army, Serbia took the lead last week
in smashing the Hun and his allies.
Aided by French and Greek contin-
gents the hard-fighting Serbians struck
Mt the Saloniki front held by the Bull
garians and certain German units.
They struck hard, too, and'within three
days had advanced - miles on a 20
mile front taking 80 towns including
the strongest of the enemy positions.
Al first the resistance was stubborn,
but by Thursday the Bulgarians were
reported in full retreat and the Ser
bians pursuing them day and night.
The enemy threw in fresh divisions,
but in vain, for they too were com
pletely defeated. So swift were the
flight and the pursuit that the Serbians
had not had time to count the great
number of prisoners taken or to esti-
uate the quantities of material that
fell into their hands.
This Serbian advance by the end of
the week was seriously menacing the
city of Prilip, one of the chief bases
Of the central powers in Macedonia. 1t
IS not beyond the bounds of POSSIBLE
ity that it may later be connected up
with the operations OF the allies in AL
bania of which little has been heard
lately. A good many authorities long
have held the opinion that the war can
be brought TO a successful end soonest
by great offensive in the Balkan re-
gion, cutting off Turkey and Bulgaria
from their allies and threatening Aus
tria from the south.
