FRENCH SAYS bR|TONS ARE
 PROGRESSING
Move Follows Breaking of German Attack: Sunday Quiet in East: Both Claim Advantage: Italy $ Stage Ccnter''
ASSOCIATED PRESS p1sPArcHI

LONDON, May 17.-Field Marshal Sir John French, in a message tonight informed the British people their troops ae1in assumed the offensive af- ter a fortnight spent in hurling back the Germa1 attacks, and had swept across and captured all German trenches ,uth of Richebourg and L. Avoue. over two miles of front. This important movement is still under way. Elsewhere on the western front lull prevails.
 The message of Sir John French said the movement resulted in the capture of numerous prisoners, many of whom surrendered in bodies. The British victory gives indication of being as important in the matter of territory won as the recent French advance
 In the East. Vienna reporth that Sunday passed without much activity. This is considered in military circles here as q possible indication that the Russians have reached a point where they are able to re-establish their line. The Austrians. however, assert their army is still advancing.

 The strain of waiting for definite news of Italy's intentions with regard to the war was somewhat relieved by a statement that nothing further is tc be done until Parliament meets next Thursday Meantime special trains are reported to be in readiness to take the German and Austrian ambassa- dors out of the country.

A. Jones of the corporation commission yesterday.

They had asked for certain fixed re- auctions applicable to all points in backhaul territory, but which would have given them the same rates as to tidewate-.''
 MT. Jones. who argued for fifty per cent of the local rate on the back haul, and who vas the first man at the hear Angeles and other cities near tidewater to obtain terminal rates. expressed himself pc well-pieased with the de- cis:on.
 The back haul question. however, is not so important to Arizona as the fixing of q maximum rate of SIP on less than carload shipments in fi;st and second class commodities from the Missouri river. according to Chairman Jores.

Davis, Ryan and King Re- tained in Washington New System Eliminates Part of Red Tape of Officialdom

The eliplnation of the executive or administra tive faculties of the recla- nation commission, and the cutting down of that body to three members instead Of five, the concentration of control over constructive and opera tive work and the distribution of head quarters where they will be handiest to their departments, are, in belief, the results of a far reaching reorganiza ton of the l.. $. F. $. announced through the local office yesterday morning.
 For a long time. it has been known that Secretary of the Interior Frank lin K. Lane contemplated a radical change in the manner in which the re- clamation work should be directed. but no definite line on his new policy was available until his formal letter of no- tification was received yesterday. The only shape-uD in local reclama ton of fees. will be the elimination of the construction department after July 1, when all work under that division is expected to have been done, under the terms of the special working appro- priation rIade available some months ago. Just now. it appears that the re- construction of these lateral systems heretofore left uncompleted, will be finished costly by July l, when the fund will C closed. Special construc- ton work. undertaken in the future in connection with the Salt River project must he done under that provision of the time extension act, permitting pro- jects to co such work on the pledge to repay costs after the first unit shall have been paid for-or in other words, after the twenty year payment period shall have passed.
 Secretary Lanes announcement reads in part as follows:
 After June 1, the following offices will be m1intaired for the administra- ton of the United States Reclamation Service:
 At Washington-An office will be- maintained in Washington as the head quarters Of an organization to be known as the reclamation service, and to be composed of the director and chief engineer as chairman. the chief counsel and the comptroller. These officers shall determine matters of general policy and recommend appro- priate action thereon to the secretary of the interior, but no action of the members individually or collectively, shall become effective unless the same is in pursuance of authority previously given by the secretary.

The officers in their dealings with the bank. it was declared. acted in their official ca pacity and within the law. The right of the bank to sue in equity was also challenged on the ground that it had adequate remedy at law.
 Hogan charged in his argument that a political aspect had been in jected into the case, and that so per cent of the affidavit filed by MT. McAdoo had nothing to do with pro- ceedings. He cited authorities to shcw that officials of the govern ment may be amenable to court when an attempt is made to usurp authority and asserted that MT Me Adoo usurped authority by assuming to be a paying officer of the United States by withholding 5000 interest on bonds due the Riggs bank ito sat isfy the penalties imposed by Comp troller Williams.

 WASHINGTON, May 17.-Immedi- ate fears for the safety of seventy five or moro American settlers in the Va qui valley, Mexico, where Yaqui h. dians are on the warpath, were relieved by advices to the state and navy de- partments The Americans, the re- port said, are concentrated at Yaqui and Pueblo. on the railroad within reach of the coast but for the present lIey are waiting and hoping for the restoration of order.
 The message sent yesterday by Gen. Sosa the Villa commander of the Va qui region to Gov. Maytorena. was transmitted by the American consul at Nogales.
 Sosa said the Yaquis attacking Va qui Pueblo. the old settlement where Americans were concentrated, had withdrawn, and are now menacing small party of Mexican soldiers at Becum Col.

 AGENTS ARE BUSY Try to Keep War Spirit Down By Stopping Sub marine Attacks; Claim Made Lusitania Really British Auxiliary Boat
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

BERLIN, May 1.-The American note to Germany is not yet officially given out. Afternoon papers, how ever, print a version of the document as telegTaphed here by the Havas agency With the single exception of the "LokaI Anzeiger' all refrain from comment. The "AnZeiger" says:
 The German government will cer tainlN not delay long with the ans wer requested and probably will re- ply that in occupying itself with it's sacred duties it is not to be disturb ed from any side. That the Ameri- can government should consider the Lusitania as harmless packet boat, without taking notice of the fact that it was really an auxiliary cruiser and ammunition steamer of the British navy, appears as scarcely believable.
 A confidential note to the editors of the newspapers, which reached them too late. says that nothing re- garding the American note may be printed for the time being.
