ooNTRABAND OF WAR.

Washington, Dec. 5--The Ger

day that Germany does not re-
; gard the seizure of coal by
German warships from Ameri-
can and neutral merchantmen
; TO be any more violation of Am
erican neutrality than Eng
: lands seizure of copper aboard
such vessels. 1t was stated that
coal and copper are contraband
; and that the belligerents have
; a right to seize them ON the

The American consul at Val

French Commanders Lost
Their Heads in Beginning
Of War, Says Expert
SEVERAL MISTAKES
MADE BY GENERALS.
Present Plan Is to Advance
Slowly, Making Every
Foot Gained Safe
(By j, W. T. Mason, former London
Correspondent for United Press)

Correspondent for United Press.)
New York, Dee. 5-The French are
trying to develop q new offensive in
Alsace-Lorraine.
General Joffre has returned from q
personal inspection of conditions in
southern Alsace where he made reas.
suring speeches to the inhabitants. At
the same time there have been re-
curing references in the official bull
letins to movements on Metz,
simultaneously with these tentative
developments the official French mill.
tary Journal the Bulletin Des Armees,
explains that in the higher commands,
renewed because Of necessary dimissals,
there "hayc not been committed in the
past three months any Of those errors
which were observed and punished in
August
The mistakes thus openly acllnowl-
edged are not, of course, publicly
known, but it is well understood that
they were very serious and occurred
during the first impetuous effort in
August to carry the French offensive
into Alsace Lorraine.
A Fatal Blunder.
At Mulhausen, in southern Alsace, q
mysterious blunder by the French com,
mander led large numbers Of the in.
vaders into the first known trap OF
the war, Its details were concealed
but it is believed a faulty reconnaissance
caused the French to march blindly
across q German mine field, which ex
ploded with terrifying results.
About the same time, farther north
in Lorraine, Marseilles army corps
became panic stricken at criticai
moment during the Saarburg operations
bringing the Lorraine offensive to o
hasty, inglorious eud.
Assurances that the incompetent gen
erals responsible for these misfortu
mates have been dismissed are guaran
tees to the French nation that hasty
enthusiasm will not again be permitted
to serve as substitute for seriou,
campaigning,
Sentiment Blamed,
The French commanders were carried
away by sentiment when they crossed
the frontier with their armies into The
lost provinces IN August. Their 1udg
mont blinded, they went ahead toe
quickly. The lessons taught by thcsC
disasters have keen well learned m.
since they occurred caution has beeu &
prime characteristic in French leader
ship.
In the present offensive movements
in Alsace Lorraine, new methods have
been evident. A persistent advanct
has been progressing toward Metz fo
a number Of weeks but it has been q
snails pace At last, however, tn,
city e outer defenses are coming within
iange Of the French guns. Similarl,
in southern Alsace General Joffre 3 as
surances that the pro-French population
need feel no alarm mean something DIFF
ferent from what they would bav,
meant four months ago AZ that tim
they would have had the inconsequent
ial flavor Of banquet oratory, Toda,
they mean that the French think the,
have checked the Germans in tha
region and feel that the Galic arm,
is in strotegically adyantageou
position.

OPENING OF MAIL EXPLAINED.
Each Country Reserves That Right
in Time of War, It Is Stated.

With reference to complaints that
letters arriving in this country from
Germany are opened at some point, it
stated at the Post Office Depart
ment that while there is no pro-
vision made concerning mails in
time of war by the universal postal
union treaty, each country. it is un-
derstood, reserves the right to regu-
late its own mail service. So long as
the malls remain in the custody of
United States officers or agents they
are subject to domestic regulations,
but once they pass into foreign GUS
toby they become subject to the laws
of the country of their address.
Germany. it is understood. for her own
protection provides for the censorship Of
all mails going out of German territory
or that under German control. When
German officials open letters that are
either mailed to or sent from such points
they stamp them Opened by the Ger
man government"
1t was not known at the depart ent
whether mail to or from other countries
in the war zone was being opened. Mails
originating in or addressed to a country
at war are not sent through any country
with which it is at war. the route of
transmission in every case being through
neutral territory, it was stated.
