London.-The Germans have been
violently bombarding Ypres in Flan-

Rheims, while they have been making
attacks in force In the Argonne region.
The French claim that the assaults
in the laet named region have been

was landed here ON April 80 last, got
under way Monday afternoon. and Gen.
Csndido Aguilar's men assumed
charge Of the city. The United

first contingent of the American brig
ade. left the dock at 1850 p. M. bound
for home. The evacuation OF the city
was effected without any clash occur
ing between the Americans and the
native army. The Mexicans marched
in on the heels Of the departing troops
but no serious disturbance OF the city's
peace was registered during their en-
trance.

Washington.-Anxiety for the safety
Of the French and British subjects. and
their interests. in Mexico City. brought
Sir Cecil spring-Rice, the British am
bassador, and Jules Jusserand, the
French ambassador, to the State De-
partment to learn what the American
government knew Of the situation in
the Mexican capital. Reports to the
State Department showed conditions
as having improved. Jusserand also
inquired what disposition had been
made Of the $1.000.00O in customs du-
ties collected by the American forces
which evacuated Vera Cruz. He was
informed by Acting Secretary Lansing
that the money was taken away by
Gen. Funston's forces and no decision
had been reached as to its disposi-
tion.
French bondholders have q lien on
practically all the customs duties at
Vera Cruz. One loan gave them 500
Of the customs receipts and Huerta
negotiated loan giving them the re-
naming 3s%. The latter transaction
has been declared invalid by the Car
rama government, and French bond
holders feared that II the customs
fund was given to Gen. Candido Ag-
uilar, who took possession in the name
Of Carranza, the obligations would be
ignored.
It is virtually certain that until
government IL recognized in Mexico
which has arranged for an adjustment
Of all financial difficulties Of the re-
public, the funds from Vera Cruz will
be kept by the United States.
The British legation wired that
circular was being distributed an
nouncing that on the evacuation by
the Carranza forces the villa and "a
pata troops would begin period Of
looting at certain hours.
Acting Secretary Lansing said that
the department had heard Of these
circulars and he was strongly inclined
to believe they were the work Of enc
mics Of both Villa and Zapata. He
took this view because in response to
an inquiry made last Friday about the
rumors of possible disorder when the
villa troops reached the capital, Gen.
Villa, himself, issued general orders
stating that any soldier caught mo-
Testing women or stealing would be
summarily shot.

Fight On In Belgium.
Undeterred by winter weather and

an effort to break down the Allies' de-
Tense along the Franco-Belgian from

tinuous artillery fights, with occa-

violent one, while to the south of Dix

At other points the big guns again

London.-The battle which II being
fought In the region between the Wis
tula and Warta rivers in Poland ap-
pears to have turned In favor Of the
Russians. In fact special dispatch
from Petrograd to Paris says that tho
Russian army already has won . de-
cisive victory. Both the Russian and
the German official reports suggest
that General Won Hindcnburg's sec
ond thrust at Warsaw has been
checked.
Grand Duke Nicholas, commander in
chief Of the Russian forces. for two
days In succession has recorded par
tial successes in this great battle, and
last night the German general staff
says that the arrival of Russian rein
forcements has postponed decision.
Grand Duke Nicholas and General Won
Hindenburg heretofore have been SO
successful in their strategies that their
adherents look upon them as almost
unbeatable.
The German papers only Monday
morning were talking of general
Russian retirement despite the fact
that the Russians have been advanc-
ing steadily In Galicia. have repulsed
the Austro- German attack before Cra-
COW, hold part Of the German terri
tory in East Prussia and were oppos-

ON Warsaw. It IL the same In Petro-
grad. All the correspondents declare
It is certain that Russian numbers
must tell when the Germans have
reached the ground ON which Grand
Duke Nicholas has chosen to give
them battle.
Petrograd is silent about the stra-
tegy Of the present campaign, which
does not seem to excite any greater
concern in the Russian capital than
did the previous German advance on
Warsaw. Berlin, on the other hand,
seems to regard the Polish operations
as decisive in the Russian campaign.

by Fastening the end by placing arms

4 STATE PREROCATIVE

Al Il democratic party caucus in
Washington last week it was decided
that at this time the question of
Womans Suffrage is for the several
states to settle and not for Congress.
We are impressed with the wisdom
OF this act. The right. to prescribe
the qualifications of the voters be-
longs to the states alone.
In some states it would do very we'll
TO let the women vote, but other states
do not care for it.
On, if Congress had only done this
with reference to giving the right OF
suffrage TO the negro. The greatest
crime ever perpetrated on the negro
race was TO make them citizens be-
fore they had passed through SOME
period sc probation to Fit them for
these responsibilities. If Congress
had but left this matter to the states
to settle. the negro would be far bet
ter today.
