GERARD REPORTS ON
GERMAN REPR|SALS
Kaiser to Treat English Cap.
tives Precisely as Britain
Treat Submarine Crews.

LONDON, Nav As soon as Ameri-
can Ambassador Page can formally re-
port through Ambassador Gerard to the
German government concerning the ex-
act treatment accorded captured crews
of German submarines, the German gov
ernment proposes to grant precisely the
same privileges to the segregated Brit
ish prisoners chosen as those upon
whom the Kaiser's government purpos-
cs to retaliato for any i'll treatment to
submarine crews.
This was explained in a report from
Ambassador Gerard formally transmit
ted To Sir Edward Grey today by Ann
bassador Page. The American ambas-
sador at Berlin detailed his inspection
at the camps of those Britishers selec-
ted bv the Germans for retaliation. lie

books, smoking privileges. receipt or
mail packages, and daily exercise. The
ambassador said they were given good
food.
The Gerard report Is expected to fore
shadow an early inspection trip by Am
bassador Page to the detention prisons
where the British government has IN
stalled crews of submarines, so that he
may make 1t plain to Germany, through
Gerard. that the British are not sub
jeCting the Germans to unusual rigor.
Gerard made 1t plain that the moment
Germany receives assurance her sub
marine crews are treated as ordinary
prisoners of war in England, she Will
so treat all British now held.

main hardship on the segregated prison.

German Efforts to
Advance Near Ypres
Foiled, Paris Claims

PARIS, May 4.-Desperate efforts by
the Germans to advance north of Ypres
have failed. The British forces re.
pulsed a night attack on May 3. In
f1icting heavy losses.
1t is apparent that the attack started
on Sunday is to be continued by the
Germans. despite their repeated repuise
and the frightful losses they are sus-
tanning.
Unofficial reports from the front say
that the poisonous gases thrown IN
specially constructed shells by the Ger
mans have In many cases been blown
back on the enemys trenches by the
wind.
The official communique today dis
misses the situation with the laconic
comment that the British have repulsed
night attacks. 1t Is also stated that
the French offensive in the Argonne

having been made in yesterdays en-

EXPECT PRESTON TO
WIN At BAL T|M0RE
Authorities Think Democratic
Candidate will Today Be Re.
elected Mayor.

BALTIMORE, Nav 4.-Baltimore is
electing a mayor and now city council
today and despite unfavorable weather
a heavy vote Is being cast Interest
centers in the mayoralty contest. The
present mayor, James II. Preston. Is
standing for reelection on the Demo-
cratic ticket. while Charles Heintze-
man, formerly member of the city
council, is running on the Republican
ticket Both sides are claiming an sd-
vantage by reason OF the heavy vote.
Local political forecasters claim that
Preston Is sure to win and that 1t IL
only a question as to his majority.
The election Is being conducted quiet
ly. Up 10 noon no trouble had been re-
ported from the polling places.
The mayoralty fight between Preston
and Heintzeman has been pretty warm.
Heintzeman appealed to the working
class and was not at all chary in his
promises. He practically declared that
II elected he would stop spending
money for the city and would material
ly reduce the tax rate. He also prom
ised free water and several other
things, which meant that IL chosen as
the ,city's chief executive Improvements
and progress in the city would stop.
Preston. on the other hand, asked re-
election solely on the fact that under
his administration the city had made
many improvements whose cost had
rea ched into the millions of dollars.
Heintzeman also advocated an open
Sunday and was one of the champions
OF Sunday baseball and moving picture
theaters in the city council. This was
and is still opposed by Mayor l'reston.
The open Sunday question did not oc-
cupy so important a place In the cam
paign. however. as did the question OF
property assessments and water rents
