President Wilson Notifies Kaiser That Laws Host be Respected.

MehaanaudinefNetforn prompt response, and on the reply to this question probobly will depend whether or not the cordial relations between the two Governments are to continue. This demand is regarded by olficial Washington as the crux of the note which President Wilson despatch- ed to Germany. All other points in ihe communication were intended to be subordinate and incidental to this. Two features of the note, while in so wise modifying the demand for s:- sunnees us to the future, hold the door open to Germany for a possible literstion of her submarine pro- .rsmme. One of these is the Presi- dent's invitation to Germany to sub- mit my "eonvineine evidence" in its possession that the United States qtdrieials failed to perform their duties In examining the Lusitania before she sailed. The other is the President's oler to convey to Great Britain or Germany any intimation or sugges- tion either Govcrnment may be will- GERMAN AGENTS FOMENT STIBKES All these schemes having failed, plans are now being set on foot to start labor agitation in the different plants that have received the greatest amount of orders. It is said now that money is not lacking for the spread- intt of the propaganda by which the Germans hope to cause general wide- spread labor discontent and bring about strikes. The scheme has been evolved by a master mind, but the head workers in the conspiracy are not expected to come in touch with the workinttmen. By working through various channels they are said to have succeeded already in inftueneinq local labor leaders in the different cities and towns unwittingly to formulate demands on the employers. for a breakdt was now beit It was not httror until m rd to cut on I in this count Various " (human syn Germany. cit A (Inspawh from Petrottrad says: The Russians have obtained copies of the following German staff order is- sued to the troops on the River Baura in Central Poland: "God Himself is on our side and lights for us in our conflict against the whole world.

This latter proposal ia in answer to the reference in the German note to the efforts already made by the United States to bring about a modi- fiention of Germany's submarine pro- gramme through obtaining Great Bri- tain's consent to importation' of food cargoes into Germany for the civil population. This effort on the part of the United States came to naught, and instead of acting upon Germany's intimation that it might be renewed, the President now lays upon the Kai- ser and his advisers the responsibility of making any proposals to Great Britain. "The Government of the United States deems it reasonable to expect that the Imperial German Govern- ment will adopt the measures neces- sary to put these principles (those of international law) into practice in re- spect to the safeguarding of American ships, and asks for assurances that this will be done." -Hiiiriernet of the President's note to Germany is (mind in this conclud- ing sentence: A _ In Eastern Galicia and Bukowina, however. the Russians are falling back between the Pruth and Dniester rivers with the intention, it is believed here, of making the Dniester their line of defence from the Roumanian frontier to the south-east of Peremysl. They have very strong positions along this line, and military experts say that if they can drive back the Germans who crossed the river near Zurawna, Lem- berg will remain in their hands, and they will be in a position to deliver a vigorous offensive, at any rate as soon as the Austrians and Germans begin to withdraw troops for their western and southern campaigns. HUSSIANS TAKE " THE 0FFENSIVE More important, in the belief of military observers here, is the appar- ent change that is taking place in the Galician battle. Here again. accord- ing to the German account, the Rus- sians are advancing to the south and south-eapt of Lemberg, and also are attacking Gen. Linsingen’s force which crossed the Dniester near Zur- awna. Prenkr Asquith Gives List of Cun- slties in the British Army.

With Italy in the war, a spot dear to the tourist, the traveller and the lover of the artistic and romantic is in peril. Venice of all the Italian coast towns is the most vulnerable. When she was mistress of the sea and her merchantmen sailed the waters of the known world, while her colonies spread over the Levant and her war- ships humbled the Turks, the lagoons and the long sandbars were effective protection. But to-day these waters are too shallow for the Italian fleet, and her protectors must come from the nearest naval base at Taranto to save her from the modern long-range pins of the Austrian ships that could attack from Pals, less than 150 miles across the Adriatic.

Af- ter the defeat of the Marne they should have tempted fate again at all costs. They preferred to entrench themselves in their mole hills and wait for some vague favor of destiny. Hands Out Long Statement, Compli- cating the Already Critical Situation. A despatch from Washington says: While the President's note to Ger- many was being handed to the news- paper correspondents at the State De- partment, Wm. J. Bryan was passing out at his home a statement attack- ing the communication sent by Mr. Wilson on behalf of this Government. 4,500,000 CALLED TO THE COLORS Within a little book I write The dates that I must keep, The way my memory takes flight Would make an angel weep. The war has played havoc with the night clubs in London. At first the young bioods of Kitohener't, army patronized them to such an extent that they went along with much of the old swing and vim. But early closing and Eitehener'a interdiot with reference to ofhcers in uniform proved the final blow. One after another the night olpbs put up the shutters. In the statement Mr. Bryan de- scribes the President of the United States as an exponent of the old sys- tem in dealing with disputes between Governments, the system that has war as its cornerstone. Not only in this assertion, but in others, Mr. Bryan showed that he fears the pos- sibility of war between Germany and the United States as the result of Mr. Wilson's note. This year marks the centenary of the establishment of steamboat communication between Glasgow and Rothesay. The Dumbarton Castle, built in 1815 ‘hy Archibald McLachlan & Co., Dumbarton, was the first steamer to take up this service, and the magistrates of Rothesay marked the occasion by presenting the master of the ship, Captain James Johnston, with a punch bowl. The Dumbarton Car. tle was a vessel of 108 tons and of 30 n. h. p. ; the engine was built by D. McArthur & Co., of Glasgow. When aboard this steamer in 1816, James Wait, during a conversation with the engineer, discovered and personally demonstrated the prac- ticability of reversing the engine.

Certainly the French have suffered losses, which, if smaller than those of the Germans, are yet heavy. Since the start of the campaign about 1,- 300,000 French have been put hora de combat. Of these there have been about 360,000 killed and 230,000 pri- soners or missing. Of the total French loss of 1,300,- 000, about 180,000 have been dropped out, either for wounds causing perma- nent infirmity or for serious illness. From 300,000 to 400,000 men cured of wounds or illness have returned to their places in the ranks. MEN BURIED ALIVE UNDER SHELTEBS The Terrible Erect on the Enemy of The French Artillery Fire. "Throughout the day there was a heavy bombardment of the entire German position, which was cvontin- ued during the night by serial torpe- does and musketry. Our fire was very etfeetive, the two battalions which held the position suffering heavy logs- en, many of the men being buried alive beneath their bomb-proof cel- lars. "We attacked with four battalions, composed of Zouaves. Tirailleurs, Mo- roccans and Bretons, who, without haversacks, carried three days' ra- tions, 250 rounds of ammunition, hand grenades and a sack filled with earth to serve as a temporary shelter in the captured trench. "When the command to charge was given, the whole line, as one man, rushed across. Slight opposition was encountered. Only one uqick-firer was used by the Germans, which occasion- ed small losses. The attack was be- gun at 10.15 o'eloek, and half an hour later the first prisoners were brought to the officers' headquarters. an A despatch from Paris says: The French official "eye-witness" in an article on the fighting in the vicinity east of Tracy-le-Mont gives the de- tails of the capture by the French forces several days ago of the Quen- nevieres farm. "We counted on the ground where the counter-attacks took place ap- proximately two thousand dead. The total estimate of the enemy's losses is three thousand dead, not counting the wounded. We lost two hundred and fifty men killed and 1,500 wounded. We captured 20 quiek-firers and also a great quantity of trench materials." "The 'clean sweep' ordered had been rapid and complete. Two hundred and fifty prisoners were the sole surviv- ors of the two battalions. The rein- forcements which the Germans endea- vored to bring up were mown down by our 753. Two thousand of our ad- versaries were placed out of action. "The Zouaves continued on past the second line of trenches toward Tout- vent ravine. All at once the patrols, which were ahead of the main body of troops, were seen to sway and fall, although no shot had been fired. The Germans had placed a low barbed- wire entanglement in the high grain tuld to stop them. Our men soon severed the barbed wire and succeeded in capturing three German 77-cannon, which had been effectively hidden be- neathe bomb-proofs a few yards far- ther on. "The whole position was captured and quickly fortified to withstand counter-attacks and communicating trenches with the main position were prepared. Our aviators reported that fresh reinforcements had been rushed up from Royal in auto-busses. Dun ing the night the fresh troops attack- ed, but were repulsed each time. "At dawn the enemy again attacked desperately our two wings, but by rain or hand grenades his fire was effectively stopped.
