BIG FIGHT FOR PERTHES
The Only Engagement OF Importance
Along Whole Battle Line.

T'oH6 VUOlc Line.
London, Jan. 12.-Onicia. accounts
OF the fighting in the west from Ber.
lin and Paris show that comparative
calm prevails except at few points.
Even In upper Alsace and In the Ar
gonne, where there have been violent
encounters recently. activity has slack
ened. Near Scissors and In the vicin.
ity OF Perthes, however, spirited en-.
gagements are I'm progress.
The Gerrlan war office admits that
the French have captured trenches
north of Soissons toward the western
end OF the battle line. but states that
further onslaughts were repulsed. The
French announcement says two more
lines OF trenches. covering 500 yards
OF the front. have been occupied.
There Is similar disparity of state
ment concerning the progress OF the
fighting near Perthes, which has as
sumed Importance because the prize
at stake is control OF railroads OF high
strategic value. The French commuri-
cation states that 200 yards OF German
trenches were seized, while the Ger
man authorities say that positions won
by their opponents were retaken.
Should eli her side gain possession
OF Perthes the railroad now held by
the other lines OF communication
would be cut and II would be neces-
sary TO evacuate trenches for a con-
siderable distance. The Germans re-
alized that danger when the French
captured Perthes and brought up large
forces In an attempt TO regain the lost
terrain.
The British idea that operations up
10 the present are only preparatory
TO big events fits In with bit OF gossip
now heard here. II is to the effect
that Lord Kitchener, when asked con.
oerning the probable duration OF the
war said:

this ship, which was bought by an
American citizen after the outbreak
OF the war and which is to be manned
by an Anne rican crew and probably
loaded with cotton destined for
Bremen.
The dispatches add that the prob

very important questions. There In

POLAND CAMPAIGN MYSTERY
Just What is Going on Not Known
Through Official Channels.


London, Jar. 12.-There is consider.
able mystery both here and in Petro-
grad as TO the actual conditions of the
fighting In central Poland along the
Bzura-Ravka line and north OF the Wis
tula on the road from Mlawa through
Przenysz toward Novogeorgiewsk, the
Russian fortress protecting Warsaw
on the right flank.
Apparently the Germans, besides a
movement against the Polish capital
from the north, are attempting to
cross the stretch OF undefended terri
tory between the lower Rayka and
Warsaw. They have succeeded in
making their way across the river a
number OF times and there has been
violent fighting at Sukha, east of
Spierniewice, and no appreciable
progress has been made.
Military experts profess TO be un-
able to Understand the present trend
OF German tactics. especially since
Marshal Won Hindenburg is sacrificing
a great number of men for no apparent
purpose and certainly with no result
as yet

England VIII Have to Present Facts
Not Known by Washington to Max,
Good Certain Important Contentious
Alleged In Its Preliminary Note.
0rey's Strong Statements Need

Washington, Jan. l2.-Ofhcials of
the state department are awaiting
with great interest the coming of the
detailed reply from England to Presi.
dent Wilson's note of protest concern.
ing interference with American ship.
ping.
The preliminary reply sent by Sir
Edward Grey contains much that
needs considerable explaining from q
Washington viewpoint, and state de-.
partment officials are unanimous that
the full supplementary paper must
needs go far to cover over seeming
Inaccuracies In the first note.
The British note maintains that the
British authorities have adhered to
the rule suggested I'm the American
note and detained cargoes only "where
there is real ground for suspecting
the presence OF contraband." To sup
port this contention in the face OF
one exactly to the contrary from
Washington IL is believed the british
must adduce specific and complete
data about each particular case.
Officials regard 1t as inconceivable
that the British government would
make claims OF this sort In a pre.
hnmory re-" which Il could not SUP.
port with evidence, but until the evj
dence is produced doubt will exia,
here as to the full accuracy OF the
British statement that there have been
no unwarrsnted detentions.
The British note likewise states that
the British have adhered TO the rule
or not putting cargoes OF foodstuffs
into prize courts except I'm cases of
presumption that they are intended
Tor the armed forces OF the enemy.
If Great Britain has evidence against
American cargoes to support this
statement officials here would be much
interested in seeing Il.
Another statement contained In the
British note exciting interest here IL
that declaring that there are four
consignments to Sweden at the pres
ent time OF copper and aluminium
which though definitely consigned to
sweden are. according to positive evf-
dence In the possession OF his
majesty's government, definitely des-
tined for Germany"
Sir Edward Grey must in his second
note produce evidence in support of
this strong statement, II is believed
here, II he hopes to have his argument
that attempts to get oontraband into
Germany through neutral countrie.

taken to prevent II.
