Guardsmen Of Oahu Companies
Qualify For Places On Team

= The try-out for places on the Ma
tional Guard rife team that is to take
part Id the national shoot ct Jackson
vile, Florida. was completed yester-
day, so far as the Oahu guardsmen
are concerned. Twenty men have
been shooting for two Sundays for Is
places on the team The Is high men
shown in the figures will continue to
practise as q team, but their final Sc
lection Is subject to the showing made
by the Hilo- contingent. Company M,
LIST Infantry. N. G. H., stationed at
Hilo, qualified five men to try for the
team, who will arrive here August 81
and go into camp near the range for
practise. After four days in which to
accustom themselves to range condi-
tons, they will be required to FIRE the
same test that the Oahu guardsmen
have just completed. and they will be
rated accordingly. 1t is therefore pos
sible that some of the men at the bot.
tom of the list will be displaced after
the second test
There is also the possibility that
the five low men on the local list may
find themselves on the team after all,
as there is q question as To the eligi-'
bility Of one or two who qualified we'll

Ship Was Warned of Danger
Before Sailing From New York

BY The United Press.
NEW YORK, April THE exact text
Of the statement given out by the
Cunard Line at l.3O was as follows:
"Ihe Cunard Steamship Company has
received an uncontrmed report of the
Lusitania having been torpcdoed by a
submarine oil the coast OF Ireland"
Following the issuance of the bulletin
an executive officer of the Cunard Line
made the following statement to The
United Press:
"Me are not prepared TO make any
statement as to the probable basis OF
the rlmor we have received We will,
however, keep the public fully informed
and every line of information obtained
by us will be given 10 the press the in
stant IL is available here"
The steamship officials declined to
state the source Of the rumor other
than to say that il had reached them
from London by cable in exactly the
form given out.
As time went by and no further in
formation was available at the Gun
ard line Offices. the crowd which had
collected began 10 grow skeptical ana
attention was called to the fact that
since the accident 10 Lusitania's tur-
bines last August she has not been do
ing better than 20 knots. This fact
caused considerable discussion and
doubt was expressed as TO whether
the liner had had time to reach the
Irish coast.
The lusitania sailed from this port
last Saturday afternoon. She carried
nearly l,400 passengers. among whom
are Alfred Gwynnc Vanderbilt Ebert

BLOW british OUT
OF YPRES IS THE
PLAN Of GERMANS
By WILLIAM PHILIP sIMMs

0htAtu Altoo ioldn Hlbhutnls
PARIS, May THE Germans are
bringing an enormous amount of addi-
.ional artillery into action at every
point of the battle line. II is plain their
general staff has decided important gains
cannot be expected unless the strong al
lied positions are reduced and that they
are risking capture of their heavy guns
TO bring them into action. Reports re-
ceived from the French Belgian British
field headquarters in the north all tell
the same story of violent artillery com
bats with an enormous expenditure Of
ammunition.
The Germans have apparently decided
TO endeavor literally to blow the British
out of Ypres. Their guns not only are
throwing enormous quantities of explos-
i've shells on the city and the line eX-
tending from it to Hill 60, where hard
fighting has been in progress since We'd
nesday morning, but they have mounted
extra heavy guns on the wooded hills
about Zandvoore, six miles southeast If
Ypres, and are alternately shelling
Ypres and the road TO Poperinghe, Hill
go and the country west of it as far as
Saint Eloi.
The Germans continue their use Of
asphyXiating gases all along their
front. They have brought up addi-
tional troops, who have been massed
ready to attempt to push their line
forward when the artillery has done
its work. Today's official communi-
cation is laconic in its treatment of
the general situation. but It declares
emphatically that the German attack
in the vicinity of Bagatelle has
proven a complete failure. In the re-
gion of Vauquois, the Germans are
reported shelling the French lines
preparatory 10 another attempt to
move forward. y
Reports that the Ypres-Bixschoote
line is being rendered untenable by
the Germans are characterized as alb
surd at headquarters. For the pur-
pose Of protecting their men, the al
lied commanders on the north may
decide to order Withdrawals at GER
tain points, but 1t is positively assert
ed that there is not the slightest
chance that any drive to the sea-
coast can be successful. The Ger
mans have again attempted to renew
their bombardment of Dunkirk, but
without material success.
News dispatches from Dunkirk
state that the inhabitants, however,
have fed to the south and the au-
thorities have issued a proclamation
announcing that there is little dan
ger.
