SERIES OF WAR PICTURES
AT THE FRENCH EMBASSY
Views Witnessed by Audience of Promi-
nent Residents, Including Diplo-
mats and u. S. officials.

A gathering OF sixty or more prominent
residents of the national capital, including
diplomats and Government officials met last
night at the French Embassy by invitation to
witness the first presentation in this country
of the series of war motion pictures taken by
the order of the French Government for pres
ervation in the national archives of France.
From 10 until 1890 o'clock they watched
scenes depicting infantry charges, divisions on
the march, artillery fire, exploding gas bombs
and German prisoners being conveyed to the
rear. In one picture alone no fewer than
10000 men were shown more men than are
in the entire United States Army.
Of especial interest were the views OF the
battle front in the Champagne district which
has been compared in appearance to the site
of ruined machine shop fifteen miles long by
three miles in breadth. The films were ex-
planned by Z. Alexander Powell, an American
war correspondent, through whom the French
Government loaned the series. Later they are
to be exhibited throughout the United States
and Canada, the next display being scheduled
for New York for the benefit of the Lafayette
Fund the date for which has not been selected

WAR SITUATION.

Not much has been accomplished on
any of the fronts the past week. The
allies have strongly fortified Salonikl
and the expected attack by the central
powers does not develop and seems not
probable at an early date.
Heavy artillery fighting has been in
progress In France for some days but
little has been accomplished by either
side. Russia has been bonlbarding
Bulgarian coast towns on the Black sea
and claims considerable progress. No
landing seems to have been effected
yet. The Bulgars are silent as to re-
suits.
