gests that the Germans have duplicat-
ed the recent French record of con-
centrating fire averaging 100000
shells a day for six weeks along a
front not more than fifteen miles in
extent. Yet, the Germans have all
but cleared Galicia Of the Russians
and in the recent Ypres battle they
made greater gains against the Eng
lish than the French have made north
of Arras.
Other elements than gun-hre in
modern warfare must not be allowed
to retire too far into forgetfulness by
those who are promising victories yet
to come. 1t is very possible that the
constant emphasis now being laid on
the magical effect of sufficient guam
tity of high powered shells will lead to
bitter disappointment when the shells
are ready The allies, and English
men in particular, are being lulled
into a mood similar to that which
prevailed last winter, when there was
absolute faith in the wonders that
were to be accom- plished by Kitchen
er's spring offensive.
|. The disappointment which followed
the failure OF the spring offensive Is
now gradually being replaced by
hopes aroused by promises Of what
will happen when the new ammuni-
tion is ready. But, If the new ammu-

tive than. was the spring offensive, q

Many thousands, of lives might be
saved il the militarists could agree
about the lesson taught by the four
million shells the French have fired
at the Germans during the past SIX
weeks. This lesson may well be that
the western deadlock will continue
until all sides are exhausted and can
fight no more, Peace would then
have to be made under conditions
practically as they exist today as far
as the military relations toward one
another of the three major powers
are concerned

WASHINGTON, June 29-More de-

1t is expected Germany will agree

but will very plainly tell this govern
ment that II any attempt Is made to
get Americans to travel on certain
classes OF munitiou-carrying vessels,
they must do It at their own risk.
Submarine warfare against her enc
mics is to be continued indefinitely.
Germany will tell the United States,
but additional precautions. it is stat
ed, already have been taken to pre-
vent attacks upon neutral craft or
steamers used in the transatlantic
passenger carrying trade.
The Frye note, made public last
night, said: "The government of the
United States is not concerned with
any proceedings which the imperial
German government may wish to take
on other claims OF neutral and enemy
interested parties"
This went far toward clearing the
ground for an agreement between the
two governments.

that he was being guarded against

Huerta was so pleased with his re-
