Germans Sink Another American Ship.
Washington.—Destruction of the
American ship Leelanaw by a German
submarine drew sharply to the atten

government the fact that Germany
was insisting on her own interpreta
tion of the Prussian-American treaty
of 1828 in disregard of two American
notes on the subject.
The Leelanaw, from Archangel, July
3, for Belfast, with a cargo of flax,
was sunk July 25 by a German sub
marine off the northwc t coast of
Scotland.
All the members of the crew were
saved. They were taken Into Kirk

London.—German official report of
the fighting in Russia says that the
army under General von Buelow hat
defeated the Russian fifth army near
Shavll. The Russians are declared to
have been "dispersed,” and a great
quantity of war material Is said to
have been taken. The report also de
scribes operations north of Warsaw,
saying:
"On the Narew river the army of
General von Gallwitx stormed Irreaiet-
ably the fortresses of Rozan and Pul-
tusk and forced a crossing of the Na
rew between these places. Strong
forces are on the south bank of the
river. Further north and to the south
our troops are advancing toward the
river.”
In addition to having moved heavy
forces over t the Narew the Teutonic
allies have made an advance in the di
rection of the Bug. with a Warsaw-Pe
trograd railway as their objective.
Some progress is also reported to the
south, with the capture of two villages
which were taken by storm, lying
about 10 miles south of Warsaw.
Irrigation by Flrctrkally driven Pumps is Economical, Reliable and e f
ficient—ami excells all other forms of Power. If you have a water supply
from well, creek or stream, an Electric Pumping Plant can be installed at
