Washington, April "a revival of

willingness of the kaiser's government

reports were based on the supposition
that Germany has abandoned hopes
of a smashing victory" and is there

possible while her armies are still hold

Secretary of State Bryan positively
refused to comment on the report. He
said such reports had been current
since the war began, and none had been

secretary intimated that the present re-

upon fact.

Manager of the United rPess.)
New York, April 9.-The French of
fensiye developing between the Meuse
and Moselle is of greater significance
and of more Importance than the i'm.
mediate objective Of regaining Saint
Mihiel.
The operations, in fact, represent the
third effort of the year to force the
Germans from their trenches. If sue
cessful the allies will be encouraged to
believe that France and Belgium can
be cleared. If the attempt results in
failure, the task of winning the Ger
man trenches must become remote and
beyond the present ability of the al.
lies.
The two preceding attempts were
made by the French in the Champagne
region and by the English at Neuve
Chappelle. Both failed, except in a
minor degree In each case the Ger.
mans were driven back few hundred
yards but the allies were SO exhausted
they were unable to follow up their
advantage. They were compelled to
rest content with purely local gains
when the real object was success of
dominant magnitude. If the third from
tai attack fails except for few
slight advantages at isolated points,
the impression will be strengthened
that the land campaign in the west is
a complete deadlock.
Mistakes were made in the Cham.
pagne. and Neuve Chappelle attacks
