Germans Unable to Reach Guns in
Marsh abandoned by the

correspondent of the DAILY Mail" in
northern France says:
The thirty French guns which the
Germans claim to have captured north
of Ypres are not in German hands,
although the French were forced to
abandon them. The guns were aban-
doned in the marsh land with their
wheels half covered with water. At
present they are in no mans land
between the rival forces. The French
keep up a perpetual hail of artillery
fire around the guns to prevent the
Germans from getting near them

$4,000 BOTTLES OF "SCUTCH"
Brought Here From England Aboard
the CamcrOnia

New York, April 27.-Wistful spec
ulation travelled along the waterfront
yesterday as the Anchor Line Steam
ship Cameronia arrived from Glasgow
with what might be interpreted as the
first result of the prohibition wave in
England. For when the Cameronia
started to unload $50 casks and 5000
cases G2,00O bottles), the query up
permost on the pier was whether
Britain was entirely draining herself
of honest, smoking "Scutch."
Tt all events the sun became little
SINNER as sling after sling of the casks
emerged from the hold and were de-
posted on American soil. The water
front could see it's way for while IN
these dark times at least. And if the
prohibition movement in England
continues to take this form it prom
ises to have no more earnest sup
porters than the citizens OF the North
river

This is practically the only real dram

only III the school and among the

NEW PLAN FOR
 MONROE LOOP
Company Will Fight the Amended Petitions and Again Proposes Fourth Street Line - Case May Be Heard Monday Next

An entirely new proposition for the extension of the Monroe loop line east to Fourth street will be heard before the corporation commission in the near future. Th.s was announced yesterday, following an informal conference be- tween petitioners officials of the Phoe- nix Railway company and the commits sion.
 That the company will strenuously oppose with all the means at it's dis posal the proposal outlined in the amended petitions now on file was the declaration of Manager Mitchell of the street car company yesterday The pc titions ask that the loop now. in pro- cess of construction be continued east on Monroe to Fourth street, and thence south to Washington street. thereby continuing the operation of the Indian School and Glendale lines down First street as far as Monroe. In opposing this proposition the company maintains that the extension of the loop to Fourth street would serve but a small addi- tional territory. and that it would simply delay the arrival of the cars at the center of the business district
 The Company's Proposition
 To meet the demand for an extension of the loop line east of First street the company nov comes forward with this plan:
 The Monroe loop will be continued cast to Fourth street. there to connect with new line down Fourth street from Roosevelt and Ttird streets to Washington. The Indian School and Glendale line~ would operate over this line and with the Second avenue car would pass around the loop The Brill line to remain i1 it's present location without any change whatever. the downtown terminus being at First street and Washington as at present Passengers desiring to change from the Indian School or Glendale lines to the Brill car or vice versa to be transferred at Fourth and Pierce streets. This plan would mean the abandonment Of the tr2cl, on First street north of Pierce. where the Brill line branches off the present line, and of three blocks Of double track on Roosevelt between First and Third
 Early Hearing Probable
 Jusr when the matter will come up for hearing before the corporation com mission had not been decided yesterday afternoon. owing to uncertainty as to the date of the passenger rate hearing at Chicago. Press dispatches received recently indicated that the hearing set for May r. had been postponed until July, but as official confirmation was lacking yesterday. the commission was at loss 9s to just what date to set If the Chicago hearing has been post poned. the loop case will be heard here May r, but in case it is to be held as scheduled the local matter. which must be settled as soon as possible. will he heard next Monday.
