GERMAN ADMIRALTY HAS NO
KNOWLEDGE NERRASKA ATTACK
BERLIN, June 2.—Admiral Von
Tirpitz is authority for the statement
that if the German submarines engraved
in tlie British blockade were instru
mental In the injury to the steamer
Nebraskan, as hinted in the British
accounts of the disaster to the Ameri
can liner, the fact has not vet been
reported to the German naval author!
ties. The Admiral points out that al
though there is no evidence to support
the suggestion that Britlan is herself
responsible for tin* injuries received by
Hie Nebraskan, the fact that Germany
would inevitably receive the blame is
ample demonstration that Britlan can,
if site desires, sink the vessels of neu
tral nations with impunity, a course of
proceedure which would stand her welt
in hand as likely to involve other na
tions in the desperate attempt to crush
Germany.

that the German Zeppelins hung over
the i ity Monday night for at least half
the night, their presence partially con
cealed from the British air scouts by
heavy clouds. The Germans Hew at a
great height .above the city and this,
together with the almost complete
darkness in which the city was shroud

that the air invaders failed to accom

the capital failed to strike in places
where there was more than a nominal
chance to start a conflagration of any
size The authorities are non willing

unusual conditions (hat the enemy did

tion. The efforts of the officials to
prevent Hie I rue knowledge of the air

in a further storm of disapproval of
