NEW WBATTLEPLAN
ADOPTED IN WEST
Gen. Joffre and Allied Com
manders Depending on
Their Big Guns.

PARIS, September 22.-Gen.
Toffre, the French commander-in-
chief, and the allied commanders
on this front-Field Marshal Sir
John French and King Albert of
Belgium-are developing a new
plan of campaign that involves
the almost continuous use of ar
tilIerv on vast scale along the
whole line.
No Attacks by Infantry.
Masses of artillery have been employ
ed by both sides since the beginning
of operations in preparing for infan-
try attacks, pounding their adversaries
works TO ran hour or two, then suddenly
suspending fire and assaulting with In
fantry. The allies are now methodical-
ly maintaining their shell fire for days
at time without infantry attacks,
dropping projectiles upon the charred
front into every fiftyyard square, and
repeating the process-a deadly, au-
tomato, uncea sing pounding.
The heavy calibred guns send their
storms of shell upon encampments OF
first reserves behind the lines, and upon
bridges and provision trains.
German Trenches Untenable.
Official reports obtained by the
French army officers from their own
observers, from prisoners, and from
photographs made by aviators show
that parts of the opposing lines which
have been subjected to this unceasing
bombardment have been rendered en-
tirely untenable, and that the best the
Germans can do Is to reoccupy their
abandoned works after the lombard
ments have let up and then leave quick
ly when the showers of projectiles be-
gin to fall again.
The artillery fighting along the west
ern front, so prevalent in the past rev
weeks, has broken out i'll Belgium, ac-
cording to the French ofhclal report
given out in this city this afternoon.
Artillery fighting has taken place
also near Arras; between the Somme
and Disc; between the A1sne ana the
Argonne region, and in Lorraine: "A

GERMAN U-B0ATS
TO AVOID ERROR
In Case of Doubt as to Inten-
tions Are to Permit Liners
to Escape.

BERLIN, September Fl, via
London, September ~, sos am.
Commanders of German SUBJ
marines have been given strict
orders, it has been learned au-
thoritatively, that in case of doubt
as to the intentions of liners they
are to take the safe course and
permit the ship to escape rather
than run the slightest risk of
error.
This order supplements the instruc-
tions as communicated to the Washing
ton government by Ambassador Won
Bernstorff September 1. There Is rea-
son to believe the new regulation al
ready is known to Washington, as it
probably was embodied in the message
of instructions sent the German am
bassador few days ago.

States already has been informed that

Accused of Conspiracy.

These treasury officials were accused
by the bank of having conspired to
wreck the bank, and out of suit in
stituted by the bank have grown va
rlous complications. 1t was recalled
today that on the night the Riggs Bank
suit was filed John Shelton Williams.

accused Treasury officials. charactar-
lied the action of the banks officers in
going into court as "temerity." and the
inference was that proceedings against
the banks officials were threatened.
Bank Expected Move.
1t was said at the Riggs National
Bank today that a move by the govern
ment officials has long been Threatened
and long since discounted.
1t was in April last that the Riggs
National Bank instituted proceedings
against John Shelton Williams. control
ler of the currency: William c. McAdoo.
Secretary of the Treasury, and John
Burke. treasurer of the United States,
charging that the two first-n named Of

Williams had un1awfully endeavored to
inf1ict large money penalties on the
bank. An injunction was prayed and
temporarily granted to prevent the
government from collecting $4,000.

Shortly after noon Mr. Allies left the
grand jury room. but smilingly declined
to be interviewed. Later w. Morris
hammond, former employe of the
firm of Lewis Johnson & Co. was "A
witness also before the jury. bein, the
last witness called before The Stars
report closed. The appearance of Mr..
hammond recalled the fact that at the
hearing of the Riggs Bank case last
spring Mr.. Untermeyer relied on an af-
hdavit made by Mr.. hammond to sus-
tain his charge that the bank had dealt
in stocks for its own account
Officers of the bank said today that
an exhaustive eNamina ton of it's
books made by the American Audit
Company during the last few months
completely disproved the charge that
the bank had dealt in stocks for it's
own account.
1t was said at the bank today that
ever since the conclusion of the legal
proceedings before Justice Mccoy, Nav
II. Controller Williams has kept three
bank examiners in the Riggs National
Bank continuously
Searching Examination Made,
For more than four months, 1t was
said these bank examiners have
reviewed all the work done by the
bank during the year which preceded
the legal proceedings. and they exam
ined every transaction of the bank and
It's officers since it's organization as a
national institution in 1896.
Only very small part of this time il
was said-about a week-was devoted
to an examination of the present condi-
tion of the bank, and it is said that
that revealed a sound and satisfa ctory
condition of affairs, with the result thai
N
heard
The character of this prolonged ex-
animation, it was said, was such as to
lead the banks officers to believe that
the examination was being conduct ed
with the hope of producing some ma
terial which might serve the purpose
of the Treasury officials when judicial
proceedings might be resumed.
