the suggestion that the submarine

Itself since been sunk, and that
therefore Germany's disavowal of

"If it Is true that Germany Is pre

There is not the slightest reason to
suppose that Dr. Von , Dethmann
Hollweg sanctioned the attack upon
the Arabic or desired to acerbate the
relations with America. The sinking
of the Arabic may be assumed with
some degree of certainty to have been

a separate peace with the central

Petroarad state that the Russians

Military writers at the Russian
capital are of the opinion that the
German turning movement in Cour-
Innd is not likely to threaten Petro

Marshal Von Htndenburg apparently
has made no progress In his efforts
to secure control of the Raltle coast.
The latent newg from that region,
however, Indicates that Oermany baa
not given up the plan for naval co
operation toward this end. Berlin
reports that German warships bom
barded, at two points, Dago Island,
