Newspaper Page Texta THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1916. AMERICA PRAISED BY GERMAN EDITORS Press Commends Fair and Neutral Conduct in Treat ment of Submarine Liner. DEUTSCHLAND CREW FETED New Commercial Relations Forecast as Result of Breaking of Brit ish Blockade Voyage Tem- 4 pestuous at Start. ' BERLIN, via London. Aug. 2. Most of the buildings hero are decked with flags, in celebration of the '.return of the merchant-submarine Deutschland. The newspapers give the exploit ol Captain Koenig a prominent place In their editorial comments and discuss the possibility of the Empire's getting certain much-needed materials through merchant submarines. Captain Koenig and his crew have been feted as heroes. The press gives liberal praise to the fair and neutral conduct of the United States Government. The Cologne Ga sette says: 'The American Government was throughly and correctly neutral. The American fleet saw strictly that the American boundaries were daily re spected by the English as well as the French. Increased precautions were taken after an English cruiser had sur reptitiously entered Chesapeake Bay at night." Extended Traffic Predicted. The Tageblatt in its comment laid stress upon the new commercial rela tions established by means of this voyage between Germany and the United States. despite the British blockade and restrictions upon com merce, saying that while the Inter change of products Is so far of a limi ted nature, the company owning the submarine is busy with preparations to extend the traffic. The semi-official Norddeutsche Al Igemelne Zeitung points out that ships of the Deutschland and Bremen type will render valuable service during the war, but their value will be slight on the return of peace. Captain Koenig personally expressed great satisfaction at the treatment ac corded him by the American Govern- ment Emperor William has sent the fol lowing telegram to the owners of the Deutschlaircl: "With sincere pleasure I have just received news of the safe return of the submarine liner Deutschland. I heartily congratulate the owners and builders of the vessel and the brave seamen under Koenig's command." Crew to Be Decorated. The message also expressed the In tention of the Emperor to bestow dec orations on members of the Deutsch land's crew. Count von Reventlow In the Deutsche Tages Zeitung is almost alone In taking a pessimistic view of the entire affair. He calls attention to the fact that over estimating the value of the merchant ! submarine Is detrimental to German National Interests. The general com ment, however. Is confined to a keen appreciation of the daring displayed in building and navigating the submarine. LONDON, Aug. 24. According to a dispatch from Bremen, by way of The Hague, the Deutschland surprised her owners by arriving nearly a week be fore she was expected. According to this Information the Deutschland trav eled 4200 miles on her homeward voy age. At the beginning the sea was tempestuous, but later it became more calm. The Deutschland- proved to be able to navigate the stormy seas excel lently. Her engines worked faultless ly. No Icebergs were passed on the Journey. The Bremen Is said to have sailed a week ago. It is said the owners of both submarines received word seven days ago of the progress being made by the Deutschland on her return voyage and th.it it was not until they had obtained this Information that they permitted the Bremen to depart. COURT HELD ON STREET Slunlcipal Judge Views Headlights Used by 15 Motorists. Municipal Judge Langguth last night held court In the street In front of po lice headquarters at Second and Oak streets, to determine the truth of auto Ists" pleas that they had not glaring headlights.

This Is .the second of Judge Lang guth'o night schools. After the first class several months ago, the Judge was stopped on his way home by a policeman' who told him that his head lights were too bright. VALUABLE ALASKAN DOGS IN "FATHERS OF MEN" The Vitagxaph Blue Ribbon feature, "The .Fathers of Men," from the fa mous novel by James Oliver Curwood. ' author of "God's Country and the Woman," presents a number of inter- ' esting scenes which show the mode of travel in the great Northwest.

French, troops to day completed the occupation of Maurepas and carried their lino 200 meters beyond the town on a front of - two kilometers, according to to night's communication. The afternoon report Bays'? - "South of the Somme last night, after a very lively bombardment directed against Hoyecourt wood, the enemy attempted an attack with grenades, which was mastered Immediately by our fire. Southwest of this wood an attempted enemy attack was caught under our curtain of fire and the en emy was prevented from leaving Jiis trenches. "In the Champagne several German surprise attacks on a minor post in the Tahure region were repulsed easily. "On the right bank of the Meuse the enemy bombarded briskly the positions we captured yesterday between Fleury and Thlaumont. We took more than 250 prisoners. Including five of ficers, during this attack. There has been a somewhat lively artillery duel in the region of Chenols." Bulgarian. BERLIN. Aug. 24. The following official report was received from Sofia today: "We defeated the enemy on the Struma on August 21. The enemy es caped by flight on the right bank. The whole ground in the neighbor hood of the villages of Erikeui. Mev ory and Towolova was covered with bodies of the enemy's dead. Up to the present we have counted more than 400 dead. Including the bodies of sev eral officers. "We captured eight machine guns, a large number of rifles, grenades and wagons for artillery and supplies. We also took, 190 unwounded prisoners, besides four officers and 60 wounded prisoners. The battlefield was cov ered with a huge quantity of kits, which proved that the enemy was de feated completely. "A squad of hostile cavalry was lured by a maneuver of our cavalry into the range of our Infantry fire and literally annihilated. "French attacks which bad been di rected for 10 days against ' our posi tions south and west of Lake Doiran failed completely. This probably is the reason why the general staff of General Sarra.ll (the allied command er) reports the capture of places which all along had been In the hands of the French, such as the rail road station at Doiran and the vil lage of Doloudyeli, which was aban doned by the enemy. "Our troops buried 50 French dead on the right bank of the Vardar. Ia the vicinity of Nayadagn we captured a hostile detachment and one machine gun. The French left 70 dead behind them."" British. LONDON. Aug. 24. Today's official announcement says: "Last night the enemy made stren uous efforts to regain his lost ground between the Guillemont station and quarry. After a severe bombardment he launched a strong infantry attack that reached our parapets at places. After a short struggle the attack was repulsed. "After this failure the enemy deliv GERMAN LINER OFF North-German Lloyd Steamer Slip's From Boston Harbor.

No news had been received or me vessel at a late hour tonight and efforts to reach the steamer by wireless failed, A message from New London says that at the new state pier, where it was re ported the liner would dock, no prepa rations were in evidence and no one In authority at the pier had any in formation as to the steamer's where abouts. Officials of the line asserted the change was made to reduce docking charges, and denied reports that there was any connection between the Wille had' a movements and the expected ar rival of the German merchant subma rine Bremen. The Willehad went out under the flag of the German merchant marine, the first time It had been carried out of Boston harbor since the war began. She was without consort.

"Near the Hohenzollern redoubt the enemy shelled our lines heavily and attempted a raid which failed com pletely. ( "In a raid which we carried out northwest of La Bassee we entered the enemy trenches." , Tonight's official statement says: "South of Thiepval the British made a further advance of 300 yards, captur ing an enemy trench 400 yards in length. Many prisoners are being taken in this sector. Yesterday 82, In cluding two officers, were passed back. These are in addition to 164 already reported. Today a further number was taken, the exact number not being ascertained. "A hostile bombing attack against our new trenches north of Basentin-le-Petit was easily repulsed last night. There has been considerable hostile shelling tonight along the front, main ly In reply to our bombardment." Russian. PETROGRAD, via London. Aug. 22; Teutonic forces have begun deter mined attacks against the Russians, who recently forced their way across to the west bank of the Stokhod, in the vicinity of Rudka-Chervlsche, northeast of Kovel. Today's announce ment by the war office says: "The enemy yesterday opened a fierce artillery and machine gun fire on our positions near Tobot, on the west bank of the Stokhod, 38 miles northeast of Kovel. In the afternoon enemy columns commenced an offen sive, but were driven back by our ri fle and machine gun fire. "The presence of Turkish troops on the Zlota Lipa (Gallcia) is disclosed by prisoners taken. "On the Caucasus front our offen sive west of Lake Van Is developing. North of Mush we occupied the region of the village of Arindovank. In the direction of Mosul our troops defeated the fourth Turkish division in the re gion of the village of Bachta. Two regiments were surrounded and taken prisoners. One of these regiments surrendered In a body with its com mander and staff, cannon and ma chine guns being captured." Germans on Western Front. BERLIN, via London, Aug. 24. To day's statement on the fighting in the West says: "North of the Somme last night fresh efforts on the part of the enemy were rendered futile. "Near Maurepas and especially to the south, strong French forces were re pulsed after stubborn fighting at vari ous places. "On the right bank of the Meuse the artillery fighting In the Thlaumont Fleury sector and In the wooded moun tain near Chapltre Increased consid erably In Intensity.' Several French at tacks south of Thlaumont work broke down." Geimans on Eastern Front. BERLIN, via London. Aug. 24. The official announcement of today regard ing operations on the eastern front fol lows: "With the exception of minor suc cessful engagements against Russian advanced troops, as a result of which prisoners and booty were brought in. there were no developments of impor tance." thanked them for their efforts to form a coalition cabinet, although he said he regretted they had been unable to do so. , It is expected that the new consti tution will go lioto effect when the general elections are ordered. As it will be the first time that an election will be held under the' new constitu tion, it is believed preparations for the elections will take a long time, and It probably cannot be held before the beginning or the middle of Oc tober. . - Some Influential politicians express the opinion that the result of the elections will be that the Rlgsdag will ratify the treaty of sale with the United States. WASHINGTON, Aug. 24. Senator Stone, chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee, announced tonight that action of the Danish Landsthing in rejecting the proposal to sell the Danish West Indies to the United States would make no difference in the atti tude of the United States, nor cause any delay in the effort to have the treaty providing for purchase of the is lands ratified here as soon as possible. Some Senators thought that the posi tion taken by the Danish Landsthing would serve to hasten - action on the treaty In this country, but many of them doubt that it can be ratified at this session. U-BOAT LOSS PUT AT 100 SKIPPER DESCRIBES METHOD OF TRAPPING SUBMARINES. Destroyers Surround Undersea Foe With Torpedoes) Germany Produces One Every Five Weeks. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 24. While more than 100 German submarines have been destroyed or captured in the Thames estuary or -in the English Channel, the Germans are maintaining their "untersee" fleet by turning a suDmersioie warship out every five weeks, according to Captain Thomas Blau. commander of the American steamship Korea, recently running be tween New York and London. Captain tsjau said today: "Hundreds of British torpedo boats patrol the waters of the channel for submarines, under the direction of sub marine 'ears' or listening mechanisms, in external appearance an ordinary bell buoy. These can detect the throb of a submarine's motor as. far away as lo miles. "When a,, submersible has been lo cated, five or six torpedo boats sur round It, each paying out a long, steel line witn a torpedo attached. Steer ing a zigzag course at high speed. the torpedoes frequently are .brought into contact with a submarine. "Between Boulogne and Folkestone a narrow lane marked bv buoys Is maintained for ship traffic, the sur rounding waters being seined inces santly."

GREEKS RUSHING TO STEM BULGAR TIDE Issue Is Forced on King by Refusal of Garrison at Seres to Retire. ATHENS DEEPLY STIRRED Bulgarian Wings Meamvlille Cony tinue Pressure Serbs Launch New Offensive Task Stu pendous In Hilly Land. BY ARTHUR S. DRAPER LONDON. Aug. 24. (Special.) Greek volunteers are rushing to the colors to resist the Bui gar threat. While Czar Ferdinand's troops continue to advance east of the Struma, the battle at Seres is still In progress, according to ad vices from Athens. The Greek garrison at Seres has been reinforced by officers and men assem bled at Salonikl. To them has been added a corps of Albanians. Many of the Greek troops are reported to have taken places in the ranks of the allies, and a furious struggle is promised. , Issue IVItfc Greece Is Forced. Thus the Issue between the Teutonic allies and Greece has come to a head. King Constantine and his ministers are making great efforts to prevent trou ble, but the situation Is getting beyond their control rapidly. The general staff at Athens has ordered that the Greek troops at Seres retire before the Bulgars. But the commander of the town has rallied around him a strong force and seems determined to dispute the Bulgarian advance. Meanwhile the Venlzellsts at Athens and throughout Greece, realizing that their opportunity has come, are agi tating for intervention on the side of the entente. Their task is made easier by the Intense feeling roused in Greece over the heroic resistance offered by the Greek garrisons to the Bulgarians. Crisis May Come Sunday. The crisis may come next Sunday. when a mass meeting will be held in celebration of the anniversary of 1909. Atnen8 is stirred to its depths by the Bulgar menace. Repeated promises of the Teuton envoys thst Greek sover eignty will be respected have failed to allay the fears of the populace. Many in the capital demand that Greece strike now, before the BUlgar reaches his goal. In the battle which continues with unabated fury on the whole front north of Salonikl the pressure against the allied wings has not relaxed. The Bul gars have now forced their way on the left wing 25 miles south of Fiorina, while on the right they say they have cleared the allied forces from the left bank of the Struma. Serba Lannch Offensive. The Serbs are battling heroically to stem the Bulgar tide. In an effort to check the advance west of Lake Os- trovo they have launched an offensive along the- mountainous front around the Moglenica Valley and have suc ceeded In winning back a height near Lake Ostrovo. Because of the hilly country here, the Serbs are confronted with a stupen dous task. They must drive the Bulgars from heights which have been strongly fortified, and at the same time main tain their line to the west. It ia esti mated that in this sector the defensive force has an advantage of three to one over the attacking troops. BAKER TALKS IN MAINE SECRETARY DEFENDS WILSON'S FOREIGN POLICIES, Administration Declared to Have Ob served Spirit of Declaration of Independence and Golden Rule. IWATERVILLE, Me., Aug. 24. Vig orous praise for the Administration's European policies were the outstand ing feature of an address here tonight by Secretary of War Baker, principal speaker at a meeting held In connec tion with the Decomratlc campaign in Maine In behalf of President Wilson. The President's course, Mr. Baker said. nas iniusea tne spirit of the Declara tion of Independence and of the Golden Rule Into this country's foreign rela tions. "The Administration has keDt the peace." he said. "It has done unto Mex ico as we would be done by. It has maintained friendly relations with the European belligerents and placed this country in a position from wheh, at the end of the great European struggle. mo - moral xorces or the Unted States can be exercised in the interest of Jus tice and humanity.

"The United States Is today the friend of each of the belligerent na tions. Our fields are growing the crops that are to feed the multitudes whose hands have been withdrawn from the plow to be given to the sword. Our workshops and factories are making the Implements of rehabilitation which will make life possible again in Europe when the great scourge is passed. We have preserved the peace with Justice and have saved to ourselves an oppor tunity far larger than participation In this large struggle could have "given.
