RAILS DROP UNDER
EARLY LIQUIDATION
Weakness Provokes General Irregularity With a Point
Loss for Steel and Other Industrials and
Metals; A Few Rallies
By Associated Press
New York, June 4—Wall Street —
Liquidation of rails was resumed
during to-day's early trading, leading
issues of that gl-oup losing 1 to al
most 3 poin.ts. Pressure against St.
Paul and Delaware and Hudson was
again most pronounced. Weakness
of those stocks provoked general ir
regularity elsewhere, United States
Steel losing a point with other in
dustrials and metals. Motors and oils
also lost ground with Central Leath
er, shippings, sugars and other tin.
classified stocks. Industrial Alcohol
was heaviest of the high-priced spe
cialtes, losing 2>,i poin.ts. There were
irregular rallies in steels and some of
the minor issues before the end of
the lirst half hour.
Gradual recoveries were made in
almost all parts of the list during the
dull morning session. U. S. Steel
rallied to last week's final quotation
and Bethlehem Steel rebounded
three points. Motors and accessor
ies also rebounded to a better in
quiry at actual gains of one to one
and a half points. For the most
part rails retrieved their losses, but
dealers in that division were rela
tively trivial. Lack of initiative in
the market was attributed to the ab
sence of many professional opera
tors. The money tinfl exchange mar
kets were watched with keen inter
est for any unusual developments.
Russian exchange continued weak.
Bonds were steady.

Arrest of Four Men
May Disclose a German
Spy System in America
By Associated Press
New York, June 4. With four
men under arrest who are alleged to
be only minor figures in a conspir
acy to transmit information of mili
tary value from the United States to
Germany through neutral mail chan
nels, the federal authorities and city
detectives to-day Indicated further
arrests which they said might result
in disclosures of a German spy sys
tem. Apparently the government
officers hoped they could uncover an
explanation of how Germany knew
in advance of the approach of the
American destroyers to the British
coast so that an Irish port could be
mined.
"The charge against the three
men are present," United States As
sistant District Attorney John C.
Knox, said, "is that of competing
with the government by carrying
mail in opposition to the govern
ment." Mr. Knox added that the
charge might be changed to treason.
Two of the men are said to be
American born and a third, a natur
alized citizen of Sweden. Examin
ation of a quantity of mails said by
federal agents indicated transmission
of information on steamships to
Mexico and thence possibly by wire
less to Germany.
The fourth, described as the son
of a Germany army captain, was ar
rested this morning. The police re
fused to reveal his identity prior to
his arraignment.
German Opera Singers
Taboo U. S. Contracts
By Associated Press
Amsterdam, via London, June 4.
The largely attended general meeting
of the German Stage Society at Ber
lin on Saturday passed without a dis
senting vote, the proposal of Count
Seebach, director of the Dresden
Court Theater, binding the members
to grant no contractual or ex-con
tractual leave of absence to singers
wishing to go to America and not to
■ engage for five years any German
singer who accepts an American en
gagement. Those present included
the directors of the Schiller and
Kleine theaters and the German
Opera House of Berlin and the direc
tor of the court theaters at Vienna,
Stuttgart, Cassel, Wiesbaden, Ham
burg, Leipsic, Breslau, Bremerhaven
and Dusseldorf.
American Liner Attacked
by Two Submarines
By Associated Press
New York, June 4.4 Two German
submarines made a concerted torpedo
attack on the American Line steam
ship Kroonland on her last outward
voyage from this port, firing four tor
pedoes, two of which hit the liner
glancing blows, but did not explode,
tccording to a report, brought here by
n American, recently in England,
who said he was trtld of the attack by
an officer on the ship.
The naval gunners on the Kroon
land opened fire at the unseen tar
gets, sending explosive shells into the
water at the point where it was
judged the submersible* were when
the torpedoes ware launched, but so
war as known no hits were recorded.

AMERICAN WAR
MISSION SAFE

bearing the members of the com
mission."
Within a week, ten days at the
latest, it is believed that the Root
party will be in the Russian capital.
Its members have been engaged in a
race against time to Petrograd. As
quickly as the fastest obtainable
trains and steamships can take them
they are hurrying there in an effort
to be present with such advice and
assurances as they find the Russians
willing to accept and in an affort to
steady the situation before German
intrigue can bring about either a sep
arate peace or the brekkdown of the
Russian military machine.
The commission left Wash
ington about May 15. charged with
greetings to the new democratic gov
ernment of Russia, and authorized to
pledge unstinted aid from the United
States not only in the prosecution of
war against the common enemy, but
in the rehabilitation of the demoral
ized country. It was preceded by a
special mission of railroad experts,
whose arrival already has been an
nounced.
After a final conference between
President Wilson and Mr. Root, the
commissioners traveled overland to
the Pacific coast and there boarded
a fast naval vessel for the voyage to
the Orient. Under the voluntary
censorship, the request of the gov
ernment, nearly all American news
papers refrained from publishing
anything abou* their departure or
the points through which they pass
ed along the way. While no German
submarines are known to be operat
ing in the Pacific, it was deemed wise
to print no details of the trip until
the voyagers were safely landed.
The arrival of the Missionat Petro
grad is awaited anxiously, because it
is confidently believed here that the
assurances it brings from the Amer
ican government and the people and
the counsel of its members will do
much toward steadying and strength
ening the hands of the provisional
government.

to accept a more important position
in the same line of work in Pitts
burgh, bespoke for the Charities and

port the club has given him. The

tial and most practical worker ever
employed by the Associated Aids and
i has placed the organization on a
firm footing.

j tary of the Harrisburg Y. M. C. A.,

| world and gave some graphic word
| pictures of their heroism in the conn- 1
I tries now desolated by th great war.
