potentiaries at Saturdays conference
on Japan's demands to China has led
Chinese officials to believe that Japan
is marking time until the answer in .
the house of commons by Sir Edward
Grey of a series of questions put to
him diVulges Great Britain's attitude.
The plenipotentiaries Saturday again
went over the Hanyehping mines,
South Manchuria, and Eastern Mon
golia questions, but without reaching
a conclusion. Mr.. Hioki the japanese
minister, intimated that he might not
receive further instructions from To-
llio by the time of the next meeting
Tuesday.
A mandate signed by President Yuan
Shi-Kai early in April denounced DR..
Sun Vat Sen. who was the first pro-
visional president of China. for plot
ting another revolution in China, and
warned the military and civil COVER
nors to take vigorous precautionary
measures. Agents Of DR.. Sun, detec-
tives reported, had been sent to the
Yangtse districts and the coast prov
inces to create disturbances during
China's negotiations with Japan. Many
of the members of the revolutionary
party have publicly denounced the
Japanese demands upon China, but DR..
Sun mas refrained from doing so.
DIR. Sun has resided in Toxic since
the last Chinese rebellion. with a price
set on his head by the Chinese govern
ment.

Rostoki, which lies about 25 miles
to the northwest Of Uzsok pass, has in
the last few days been the objective
of the Russian troops, but against an
advance in this direction the Austrians
have been delivering attacks in great
strength. They have, according to
their report, ''victoriously repulsed''
Russian attacks near Telepotch and
have captured nearly 1900 prisoners.

continuous fighting in the Vosges,

Peking, April 19, 1.S5 a. m.-Con-
sidering the facts that the Japanese
gave assistance to DR.. Sun Vat Sen in
his rebellion against President Yuan
Shi Kai, and that Dr. Sun retired to
Toxic after the revolt was put down,
the report is credited in official circles
here that Hung -HutZe bands from
South Manchuria, led by Japanese, are
now marauding on the Shantung pc
ninsula in the vicinity of Tsing-Tau
with banners inscribed Vanguard Of
the Army Against Yuan Shi Kali
The Chinese government lodged an
other protest with Toxic Saturday re-
Garding the reported movement of
Japanese troops in Shantung and also,
it is understood, alleging that japanese
troops prevented Chinese troops from
pursuing bands of brigands near
Tsimo, in neutral territory north Of
Using Tau.
Ch1neSe government reports are said
to confirm the newspaper accounts of
an alleged agreement between DR.. Sun
and japanese agents for Japanese sup
port with money, arms and men for
another revolution.
Numerous executions in several CEN
ters, including Peking, of emissaries
of DR.. Sun, are now taking place, the
law in China not being sufficiently
advanced to give these men fair trials.
Little beyond the denunciation of al
legged offenders by detectives is neces-
sary to bring about an execution.

THAW EXPECTS JURY
TO TEST HIS SANITY
His Counsel Will Make Argument in
Supreme Court Today.

Boston, April 18-Harry K Thaw
not only expects a jury test of his
sanity, but has strong hopes that the
attorney generals office will join with
his counsel in supporting the motion
to this end when it comes up for ar
gument in the supreme court on Mon
day.
Thaw's mother, Mrs. Mary Copley
Thaw, who was here yesterday. said:
1--WE are not discouraged by the de-
cision Of the appellate division of the
supreme court, refusing Harry an op-
portunity to return to New Hamp-
shire. On the contrary. 1 am satisfied
with the progress made thus far and
believe that the end of the long drawn
out and heart-breaking litigation is in
sight.
II believe that when the matter
comes UP on Monday our motion for a
test of Harry's sanity by a jury will
be granted and we have strong hoItes
that the attorney general will join
with our counsel in supporting the
nation.
Personally I feel that much of the
bitterness that has marked the case
has passed and that public sentiment
will approve the reference of the ques-
tion of Harry's sanity to a jury. Ger
tainly no harm could be done by this
cours'> and 1 am firm in my hope that
the attorney general will make no Sc
rious objection,

SAYS GERMANS ARE
USING DEADLY GASES.
Plan to Stupefy or Kill the British and
Then Charge Trenches.

General Headquarters of the British
Army in France, via London, April 18,
$40 p. m.-The oft-repeated but un-
authenticated report that the Germans
are using deadly gases in their trench
warfare has been attested by a German
prisoner speaking voluntarily to a
British staff officer. The officer relat-
ed to The Associated Press correspond
ent the description given by this pris-
oner of three-foot cylinders charged
with an unknown gas which they pur-
ported to release at some expedient
time, the plan being to kill or stupefy
the British, if possible. This expedi-
ent, the German said, was to be fol-
lowed by a vigorous infantry churge,
much as infantry advances after artil-
lery clears the way
''The prisoner exhibited cotton WOOL"
said the officer, (which he said had
been supplied them to plug their noses
and prevent the gas from killing them
also. 1t is not quite clear to me, how
ever, why a. shift of the wind wouldn't
turn the tables, blowing the gas into
the German trenches instead of ours.''

POLICE OF ITALY ARE
WATCHING FOREIGNERS
Rev. Walter Lowrie, an American, Ar
rested by Mistake.

Rome, via Paris, April 1s.-The po-
lice watch on foreigners recently has
some closer and as a result there
b.. occurring mistakes Of which some
americans are the victims. One Of
these errors involved the Rev. Wal
ter Lowr1e. formerly of Newport, r. L,
and now rector Of the American
church at Rome.
Mr. Lowrie was stopped by the po-
lice while he was travelling on behalf
of Americans who sent relief funds
for the victims of the recent earth
quake. He was asked to show the
papers which he carried. When he
produced the list containing the names
of the Americans with figures showing
the amount of their donations, the sit
uation became s,raver as the police
thought that the writing was in code.
Finally the mistake was discovered
and Mr.. Lowrie was released with
apologies.
1t is not long ago that Albert Van
Burf, rector of the American Academy
in Rome, was arrested in the Italian
capital as a German spy, being re-
leased when the error was made ap-
parent.

at a time like this, when plain speak
ing seems to be likely to become neces-
