GERMAN ATTACK PAILS
ON THE LOCRE SECTOR
Norfolk, Va., May 27. Referring to
the Washington report from the fifth
naval district telling of the sighting
of three derelicts some miles off. the
Virginia capes Rear Admiral MeLain
in a statement to The Associated Press
this afternoon said they evidently had
been afloat for some time and were
probably the result of collisions at sea.
The names of the three ehips or their
nationalities were not given.
The admiral replying to reports in
circulation ' that they were torpedoed
or bombed by airships, emphatically
denied that there had been any report
of the operations of either U-boats'or
enemy air craft off the American coast.
He also denied . that, the wrecks were
the result of the outgoing, vessels com
ing in contact with mines adrift. An in-
vestigatlon by navy craft is expected
' to clear up the mystery as to the lden
tity of the craft and the fate of those
- aboard. . ,
The reports are "so far.' based pn in
formation turned in by .merchant ships.
The location of the derelicts has been
withheld.

afternoon in the case of the State
against Dr. Lemuel Johnson, the Mid
dlesex, N. C, dentist, who is charged
with the murder of his . bride of three
months, Attorney Harry Smith, Jr.,
representing Johnson, announced that
all testimony had been offered which
the defense desired to introduce.

caxe to argue at length the evidence in
the case, bHit was willing to submit it
to the jury as It stood - However, at
torneys for the state insisted upon
lengthy arguments and these will be
giiwith the opening of hustings court

have been ordered to .report at the
court house.-- In explaining the latter
order, Judge Richardson announced he
never knew a case to close without
one or more witnesses being recalled
to clear up some defect -in the chain
of evidence.
Johnson spent much of the .day on

sever grilling on the part of the state's
attorneys. - He was excused shortly
after the opening of the afternoon ses
sion, little additional information hav
ing been obtained which was not
stated In the direct examination of the
witness.
A Gloyd Gill. Washington newspaper

tify as to a conversation ne had with
Attorney Harry Smith, representing
Johnson. Later Smith was called as a
witness by the prosecution but his ad
missions were so evasive they failed in
effect.

PERSHING DOES NOT MENTION
GENERAL RENEWAL OF DRIVE.
Washington, May 27s General Per
shing's communique issued tonight by
the war department makes no mention
of a general renewal of the German
drive but says that after violent artil
lery . preparation enemy Infantry today
penetrated advanced American posi
tions in Picardy at two "points only to
be driven out by . .counter-attacks in
whichv ; Americans entered .the. enemyl
lineg.r.. . .
The statement ..also -tells of .the re
pulse of a strong hostile raiding par -in
the Woevre sector, "of , hostile gas
ehell bombardments in Lorraine and of
the downing of ; a German airplane by
American aviators. J r'
The communique, dated today at ex
peditionary headquarters, follows:
"In Picardy, after violent artillery
preparation, hostile infantry detach
ments succeeded in" penetrating our ad
vanced positions " at ; two points. Our
troops counter-attacked, completely ex
pelling the enemy, and entering his
lines. y ' . .. , ' .
"In -the Woevre a strong hostile raid
ing party was repulsed (with losses?)
in killed and ' wounded.. - -
"In Lorraine hostile gas shell bom
bardments -of aom eintensity occurred.
The day was." quiet in the other sectors!
ocvupieu oy our troops.
"In the course : of air dombats this
morning our aviatorsshot down a hos

instant acquiescence. There still was
reluctance in some' quarters to believe
immediate legislation, imperative but
plans for midsummer . adjournment
were abandoned and both democratic
and republican leaders expressed their
determination to go at the task of
passing a revenue bill with a will.
A suggestion by the president that
most of the new taxes probably would
fall upon incomes, excess profits and
luxuries and that profiteers could be
reached in this way was greeted with
cheers and congressional leaders said
later the money needed would come
from those 'sources. 1
; -To Initiate the bill it was announced
that public hearings would be begun
early in' June by .the house ways and
means committee, to be followed by
co-operation i its drafting with the
senate finance ' committee. Presenta
tion of the measure to the house in
July was regarded as assured. .
