DEMOCRATS ARE DISTURBED AT
REPUBLICAN PRAISE
WASHINGTON, .hint* * Local of* -
ticiuls arc some what mystified at the
recent utterances of .‘ev«ral prominent
Republicans including Taft and Sena
tor Cummins concerning President
W ilson and the* present administration.
The references to the presidental poli
cies expressed h> Cummins at Seattle
particularly are causing considerable
disseussion in political circles because
of the complete reversal of his former
attitude as frequently expressed dtir
mg the last congressional session.
It is pointed out that the Iowa Senatm
, was among the most bitterlv hostile
• ppom tlts of t lie executive, frequent l\
j insisting that t kmgress had become a
men cipher under Wilson, whom he
charged with doing more than any
man within the histms of the Cnited
States to suspend legislative construc
tion by Congress and make himsell
Hit* law making power of the nation
The sudden change of ft t ut as ex
pressed in the Seattle address has
laised an endless amount of specula
tion and the local political authorities
an* seemingP unable to offer an ex
planai ion. The praise offered by Taft
concerning the Presidential policies ai
though not so startling in significance
as those offered by Cummins are never
ihc less the subject of no little wonder.
It is also indicated that so much praise
from the Republicans 1s causing the
Wilson campaign managers consider
able preturhation of mind and much
speculation is being indulged .us to the
\vh\ and wherefore The general idea
prevails that t he sudden praise from
tin* opposition indicates that tin- lie
publicans have a joker up their sleeve
and the nature of which being abso
lutel> unguessed is driving tin* Wilson
inns to a careful examination of the
situation to find out just what is wrong

slight. Five persons were drowned in
the sinking of Hie trawler Victoria,
four meniliors of I ho crow and a hoy

reaching shore in safety although the
crew of one vessel suffered severely
before reaching land owing to contin

ZEPPELINS AGAIN DECEND
ON ENGLAND AND DROP
BOMBS MANY PLACES
LONDON, .Inin' 5.- The German
air ships again visited England last
night and dropped lmmbs on several
places along the east and southeast
coasts. The raid was in every way
far more extensive than any so far
occurring and in addition the towns al
ready heard from there are still a
number of places where il is believed
that raids occurred, none of which
have yet been enumerated. The cas
ualties so far as known are few. The
reports so far indicate that the Ger
mans \dsited not less than * dozen
towns and the sum total of the damage
will ho considerable. The Germans
apparently centered their attack on
towns of the greatest commercial im
portance and the inclination to destroy
ship building plants is clearly estab
lished by the damage lists so far forth
coming. Tn some eases the German
bombs were of the same infl.unable na
ture as those employed in the preced
ing raid but the damage from this
source is fortunately slight. It has
boon definitely determined that at
least three have been killed and some
dozen wounded. Tho authorities are
apparently withholding information as
far as possible and little news is
forthcoming aside from such as is se
cured by the press from private
sources. The present raid lias created
a scare throughout the whole eastern
coast and the inhabitants of the coast
counties are greatly alarmed at the
constant renewal of the German at
tacks.

ItRRI.IX June a The. allies have
signally failed in their efforts to indue.
It.unania to enter the war. a. cording to
announcements given out hy the gov
ernment last night. Information re
ceived from the Berman representa
tives at I iukh.rest b> the Foreign Of
flee is accepted as assurance that the
Rumanian government will not give
in to the pressure of the allied powers
in any event. The full credit for the
great |lerman difilomatie victory Is
given to Foreign Minister von Jagon
and Prince von P.uelow who have been
acting in concert t>> circumvent the
allies in their attempts to Involve the
remaining Balkan States.
Commenting on the refusal of Ru
mania to ally herself with the enemy
the Bokal Vnziegct states today, “The
defeat of th.- attempt to induce Ru
mania to enter the war. is a greater
nstro-German vietnry than that of
the capture of I’tzemysl."
