the opinion that the arrest was an un-
pardonable blunder, and that If the

explanation from the chancellor.
An Unofhcial Explanation.
AMSTERDAM. Holland. January t.
According to the Berlin correspondent
of the Tijd the following semi official
concerning the pastoral letter Of Car
dinal Mercier. who is reported to have
been arrested by the German military
to give allegiance to the German ad-
ministration:
Everybody. anti or pro German,
agrees that the cardinal was justified
in endeavoring in his pastoral letters
to console the civilian population In
counseling them to keep quiet. But the
cardinal misconstrued the rights and
obligations of the church and trans
gressed against authority when, In his
pastoral letter, he interfered in a po-
litical quarrel between nations

ported arrest of Cardinal Mercier by
the Germans at Brussels because of q

received no confirmation of this re-
port and considers 1t improbable.

tain definite positions. in which ooth
sides are we'll intrenched. They as
,sert that the Austro-Hungarian troops
are fighting excellently in their pre-
pared positions and that the attempts
of Russian forces north Of Gorlice to
push forward in the direction OF Cra-
COW on the road leading to Bochinia.
and on the south to Neu Sandec, have
failed.
IT is stated here that Gen. Gerald Pau.
commander of the French army in AL
SAGE, visited Warsaw in the latter part
of December. The object Of his visit
was to make arrangements with the
Russian army staff which. 1t Is re-
. ported, may lead to combined control
of further operations.
Weather Hats Operations.
The correspondent of the Tageblatt,
in a dispatch from the Austrian head
quarters. says:
simultaneously with the cessation OF
the Russian offensive southwark In the
direction Of Neu Sandec, the Austrian
offensive In Russian Poland came TO
standstill. This was due less to force
of arms than the unfavorable weather
conditions. Much rain has fallen, re.
sulting in thaw which has converted
the whole country into vast morass.
1t is physically impossible to bring up
heavy artillery, without which the
Russian position along the Nida river
cannot be forced.
THE Russian lines on the east bank
of the Nida follow the heights, which
are suited admirably for tntrenchments
and well covered with positions for the
Russian artillery fire. The Austrians
have intrenched themselves on the op-
posite bank. There Is little fighting
however, except an occasional artillery
duel when the fog permits. and also
sporadic local infantry firing. NO
change in the situation is imminent un-
less developments In the operations
upon Warsaw should cause one or a
freeze should permit the moving OF
heavy artillery.
Both in Strong Positions.
The correspondent of the Lokal An
zeiger sends similar report on the
conditions to the east of Cracow. On
the Donajec river. he says. the adver-
saries are well intrenched. usually on
the opposite bank Of the broad streams
Tho Austrians," the correspondent
continues, holds the east bank. Their
positions are so strong that they now
are considered impregnable. The RUS
sian attacks last week were literally
wrecked by the Austrian fire.
But the Russian positions are equal
" strong, as 1andwehr battalion
discovered, to its cost. when it stormed
the first line of trenches and suffered
heavily under a heavy fire from the
strong second line. 1t is now COM
paratlvely quiet along the Donajec."

SHIP MANIFEST ORDER
EXPLAINED BY THOMAS
Colorado Senator Says President
Was Consulted Before It
Was Issued.

Explanation Of the recent order of
the Treasury Department preventing
publication of ship manifests of for
eign-bound cargoes until thirty days
after sailing, criticism of which was
made in the Senate yesterday! was
given today by Senator Thomas OF
Colorado.
The Colorado senator declared that
the order was issued at the instance Of
the New York Merchants Association,
. after conferences with Secretary Red
field. because 1t was discovered that
representatives. of foreign powers were
using manifests to give their govern
ments advance information of cargoes.
This resulted in frequent tying up and
halting of neutral ships and in great
hindrance to legitimate commerce.
President Wilson, Senator Thomas de-
clared, was consulted before the Is
suance Of the order, and assented to its
PRONUNCIATION.
Wisdom of Order Questioned.
The wisdom of the manifest order
was questioned by Senator Sutherland,
who declared that the policy of the de-
partment's order of secrecy for thirty
days must itself interfere with Ameri-
can commerce.
"Of course, foreign powers have a
right to intercept contraband articles
intended for belligerents. and secrecy
as to manifests invites suspicion" said
the senator.
Senator Walsh declared that reports
as to copper being shipped on false
manifests and concealed among nom
contraband articles had upon careful
investigation not been supported by
facts.
Contraband Claims Not Proven.
Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia stated
that there had been a failure to sub
stantiate claims that contraband had
been shipped in cotton.
'On the other hand" continued Sena-
tor Smith, II sympathize with the
senator from Utah because I believe
the order adds burdens to those who
ship non-contraband and lightens the
task of those shipping contraband."
Senator Sutherland declared, further.
that while more definite information
might disclose that the government
acted wisely, facts at hand indicated
that the request of the New York
Merchants Association was an improp-
er one and that government officials
who yielded to the request acted i'm
properly.

No Priests Under Arrest.
The cardinal has neither been de-
tanned in the bishops palace at Malines
nor placed under police surveillance of
any sort, the official statement says. It
also is denied that any priests have
been arrested.
The denial is silent on the case of
Dessain, the printer who published
the cardinals Christmas pastoral letter.
but it is understood the story concern
ing him also is fabrication.
The Germans are said to take the
position that at this time the point
whether they are the legal or the IL
legal rulers Of Belgium is not at issue
and. consequently. there will be no ac-
tion on their part.
Cardinal Mercier was reported unof-
ficially to have been arrested on ac-
count Of a pastoral letter in which he
was said to have advised Belgian CIV
ilians not to recognize the authority OF
the German administration of Belgium
While these reports were doubted at
the Vatican, an inquiry was instituted
by Pope Benedict. with the idea OF
making protest to the German gov
ernment. according to Rome dispatches
should the arrest Of the cardinal be es.
tablished.
