a note telling
the place where
the
other depots

as
to be
able

other.
KEach

London,
June
4th. —Great
Britain will
have thz_largest
and most powerful
sub-
marine
in the worid
when
the
mystery
submarine
X[ is comoleted.
This
giant
underwater
craft,
which
will
soon
be
launched

Sae

then slip quickly b :neath
the
waves.
It
is
her
great
speed
and
gun-power
vhich
will
surpass
anything
in
her
clas:.
She
will be
more
than
a
match
for
most
surface
vessels.
The
submarine
was laid downa
only
eighteen
months
ago,
the Admiral:y has
conzratu-
lated
her

the
speed
with
which they

says:
‘'l had
the
good
fortune
last
winter
to succeed
in settling the deli-
cate question of the Anglo-American
debt.
If
the
European
questions
now pending
are
approached
in
the
same
spirit
I
do
not
see
why
we
cannot
manaze
to
settie
them
also.
In any
case,
you
can
count
on
me
to
do
my
psrt
with
the
greatest‘det:'rmin:x".(m.

meet
temporary

the
end
success
will erown
our effor s.”
London,
June

Baldwin
has
been
credit=d
with the
intention of
tak-

a stronger
line than
Mr. Bonar
Law
in
the ques: ion of the
Ruhr and
repara-
tions
and the statement
he
has
made
to
a
Paris
nev.spaper
has
awakened
new
interest
in
this
subject,
According
to
the
best
iniormation,
however,
ail
re-
ports
that the Government
has
prepared
a
new plan for the solution
of the repara-
tions’ ditficu.ty or that
the Prime
Minis-
ter has
any present
idea nf going to r'aris
to consult
with M. Poiacare,
are unfound-
ed.
Bverything

to
be
wait-
ing
onthe
coming
conference
between
the

and
Belgian
statesmen
and
the
new
German
note
which is
not ex-g
pected
to be
received until

be
regarded
as
well informed,
