LONDON', Juno 2.1. Tho Mate
mont from Austrian headquarters
that Lembcrg had fallen before the
forces of Austria and Germany was
received hi London without surprise.
It was known that the Germanic al
lies wore within artillery range of
the Gallclan capital and capitulation
was regarded as a question only of
days. Nothing has been heard as yet
from Petrogrnd, hut there Is no dis
position to doubt the accuracy of the
Austrian claim.
Petrograd does, however, claim a
victory on tho river Dniester, result
ing In heavy losses In prlHoners and
tuunltolns to tho Austro-Gcrmans,
nnd partial confirmation Is glvrn this
rlnlin by tho Austrian official ac
counts of the stand made In this
neighborhood by tho Russians. Other
evidence of tho orderly retirement of
tho Russians Is tho Austrian report
that tho armies of the central em
pires captured few guns.

In the Dardanelles the Ilrltlsli re

In tho Montenegro district theso

first tlnio In n battle In which, the

The Swedish steamers hound for
Kngland with lumber wero captured
yesterday by German warships In the
Ilnltlc Sea.
Kngllsh newspapers glvo promi
nence to an Intorvlow with tho pope
published In Paris in which the head
of the Roman Catholic church Is
quoted ns expressing tho desire to
hold the scales ovenly between tho
belligerents, but as declaring that he
awaits only an opportunity to move
In fnvor of peace.
ROMH, Juno 2.1. The Italian
press vigorously condemns tho In
terview attributed to Popo llcnedlct
by Louis Lntnplo and published In La
Liberie of Paris, In which Ills Holi
ness Is said to have voiced a com
plaint that the privileges of tho Vati
can have been seriously curtailed by
the Italian government as the result
of the war.
Tho Corrlere D'ltalla declares that
If the pontiff docs not categorically
deny the words attributed to htm,
thoy will have deplorable conse
quences.

HAVRK, June 23. Doubt Is ox
pressed by the ingtlcmo Steele, a
Catholic Unionist newspaper, of tho
authenticity of the Interview reported
to havo been given by tho popo to
Louis Lataple. In this interview tho
pontiff Is said to have asserted that
Cardinal Mcrcler, archbishop of Ma
Hues, never had been arrested. Tho
Vlngtlemo Sleclo takes quick excep
tion to this statement.
The newspaper argues that Cardi
nal Mercler's coercion was proved by
tho archbishop's own Latin pastoral
address to tho clergy on January 10,
In which tho prelate formally con
tracted the statement of General Von
Hissing, German governor of Hel
glum, that the cardinal never had
been prevented from exercising fully
his ecclesiastical function,

partment. Tho United States gov
ernment, it was announced, never Iiqb
made any suggestions about tho send
ing of Japanese troops to ICuropo or

45 Of These Sample Dresses to Choose From. No'JTwo Alike
We just received this lot direct from one of New York's foremost shopssent
to us by express mostly 36 and 38 sizes as these are the sizes generally
made up for models, although there is a generous sprinkling
of sizes up to 46. You'll not have another such opportunity
this summer, considering the number to se
lect from, and at a saving we will not be able
to repeat. Then too you'll find the work
manship exceptionally good for dresses at
such a moderate price. Made to sell at $10

them out at $6.50, $7.50, $8.75, $9.50 and
$12.50. On Sale Thursday Morning.
