BRITISH FACE GAS
Germans Release Poison Fumes or
Vast Scale East of Ypres.

Germans Release Poison Fumes on
Vast Scale East of Ypres.
Huge clouds Of asphyxiating gas
were thrown against the British lines
east Of Ypres by the Germans, and
the atmosphere was rendered so poi.
sonous that a portion of the first line
trenches had to be evacuated.
Before the sitting fumes had been
cleared away by a rising breeze the
German forces had dashed in and so
strongly occupied the deserted en-
bankments that the allied forces have
not yet been able to reoccupy them.
But while the attack entailed losses
of not very great importance, one fact
of a highly encouraging nature was
established. 1t is that over a consider
able portion Of the trenches engulfed
in the asphyxiating gas the troops
were able to withstand the suffocating
atmosphere and retain their positions
in spite of a vigorous onslaught.
This fact is brought out in a report
from Field Marshal Sir John French
and is taken by him to indicate that
the methods devised for resisting poi
sonous gases will shortly prove en-
tirely effectual.
Never before have the Germans re-
leased a greater quantity of gas in any
given area. 1t was emitted from
cylinders over "a front of five miles.
At the same time asphyxiating shells
were hurled into the British trenches.

Armies have Resumed Offensive.
The following official communication
was issued in Petrograd:
"In the region of Shawl, Courland,
our troops occupy on a very wide
front the line of the Rivers Visdala,
Venta, Dubysa and Siup. Along the
lower Dubysa our front has made
great progress to the west of Siup.
''In Galicia, by our counter-attacks,
we have forced the enemy gradually
to a defensive on almost the. whole
front, except in the sector near Var
khOl, POdoline and Gussakuvo, where
the enemy on the 22d unsuccessfully
attempted to attack us.
"The offensive which we opened on
the 22d is being pursued along the
left bank of the Dneister. 1t was de-
veloped on the 23d with great sue
cess, despite the enemy's counter at.
tacks. We captured after a fight the
new and old villages of Burtchuze, as
well as the villages of Ichenikhuff and
Holobove, and part Of the village Of
Ostruve.
''In the course of the day we took
22O0 prisoners, together with forty
officers. We also captured several
dozen machine guns and a great guam.

Believe German Reply Will Satisfy US.
President Wilson told callers at the
White House that he did not know
the cause for the delay of the German
reply to the American note on the loss
of American lives on the Lusitania,
but he assumed that the German gov.
ernment, for the moment, was absorb.
ed in the new circumstances arising
out of Italy's entrance into the war.
Ambassador Gerard has sent sew
eral messages bearing on what the
German reply may be, but no denite
information has been received con.
cerning its contents. The German EN-.
bassy has made suggestions to the
German foreign Office for the reply,
and in German quarters it is said the
note will satisfy American public
opinion.
While declining to throw light on
the shipping situation as between
Great Britain and the United States,
the president referred to it as a
chronic case. 1t was learned that he
believed a formal note at this time to
Great Britain might be construed as
weakening of the American govern.
