Wilson's Trip to Canal
Is Cut OFF bu C0n0ress

Washington. d. C.-Many features
OF the elaborate exercises planned for
the Formal opening OF the Panama
canal in July will be abandoned as
the result Of the action of congress In
refusing to make the appropriation for
the purpose asked for by Secretary
Garrison, OF the War department.
The appropriation requested was to
defray the expenses of trip to the
canal by President Wilson, members
OF congress. members of the diplo-
matte corps, representatives from for
etgn governments and other special
guests, including ex-Presidents Roose-
welt and Taft. Provision also was to
be made for a banquet and other en-
tertainments on the Isthmus, for gold
medals, souvenirs and for the printing
OF special invitations.
IL was intimated here that the presi-
dent himself would not go to the for
NAL opening, which is planned for
July, but 1t is possible that he may
change his present plans. The Navy
department has an appropriation for
sending the fleet to the canal and 1t
was said that some kind of exercises
probably would be held.
All OF the presidents plans for the
spring and summer months were said
to be dependent on the international
situation. While the prospects for his
going by train to San Francisco later
this month we're said to be brighter,
he will make no final arrangements
for the present.

England Continues to
Delay u. s. Food Ship

London Little light was thrown on
the steps that Great Britain will take
to enforce her declared intention to
stop trade TO and from Germany. De-
velopments on the declaration hinge on
an orier-in-eouncil which, II has been
promised. will be issued soon. but no
definite date for the issuance Of which
has been announced.
Officials make II clear at every op-
portunity that the mode Of making re-
prisals will DO outlined In such man
nor that further negotiations will not
be prceluded. insofar as the declara-
tion affects neutrais. Meanwhile food
stuffs from the United States destined
TO neutral countries continue TO be do

Chicago packers are much annoyed
over the delay at Falmouth since Feb
ruary 20 Of the Norwegian steamer
Vitalia. There are no prospects for
the release Of the steamer. although II

Quirements.

Three More Forts In
Dardaneiies Quit Action

Paris.--The following supplementary
official statement was issued late
Thursday by the French war office:
ut can be said that In the Argonne,
where we had been constantly attack
ed since December. the roles in the
last three weeks have been reversed.
We have gained the indisputable as
cendancy. The effect is salutary In
these local actions. of which the Ar
gonne Is the theater, to feel that more
and more the enemy is at our mercy
and that our moral superiority is as
sured.
1--WE have obtained this result by a
series OF limited operations. energeti-
cally carried out. and although the
German forces which confront us are
extremely courageous we feel that at
a given point and moment we are mas
tiers and can do what we wish"
The statement gives the details OF
one of these engagements. which 1t
says, occur daily and show the splen-
did ardor OF the troops.
Action began in a ravine near Fon-
tame Madame at s o'clock In the morn
ing says the report, five companies
being charged with the attack. We
exploded three mines under trenches
OF enemy, while our artillery crushed
them under hot fire. Three minutes
later our columns debouched from
branches of trenches and stormed the
German works.
I'VE penetrated In three different
quarters, killing all the occupants OF
the trenches, 75 infantrymen and about
30 prisoners. We took four wounded
prisoners. At $3.50 o'clock we had
gained at least $50 yards of the enc
my's trenches"

Iowa, Nebraska and other states.

In tbs cities transportation was badly

The storm swept up from the South

Then came tho snow, preceded by a
blast Of small hail. There had been
no warning OF the storm, which struck
Chicago shortly after midnight and In
creased In Intensity AZ morning APP

inch Of snow over everything and the

So, the last finishing touches having
been put upon his toilet, and Angy

should ring.
