 ployment of ksphyxiating Gases.

London, July Il. 5.55 p. m.-Ffeld Marshal Sir John French, in a review of the operations of the British ex- peditionary forces in April and May, the story of which has been told in the accounts by the British official ] 'eyewitIess' and by special core ispondents, makes caustic reference to the use by the Germans of asphyx- siating gas
 -"I much regret" says Field Marshal French, that during the period under report the fighting has been charac- terized on the enemy's side by cynical
 and barbarous disregard sf the well known usages of civilized war, and by fragrant disregard of The Hague convention.'
 "AIl the scientific resources of Ger many apparently have been brought into play to produce a gas of so yir- ulent and poisonous nature that any
 human being brought in contact with 1t is first paralyzed and then meets
 with a lingering and agonizing death. "As a soldier I cannot help ex-
 pressing the deepest regret, and some surprise. that an army which has
 hitherto claimed to be the chief ex- sponent of the Achivalry of war should
 have stopped to employ such devices against brave and gallant foes"

PRESIDENT STUDIES
 GERMANYys REPLY.
Gives No InI<lina of What U. s. Policy
 Should Be.

Cornish. N H., July 11.-In the quiet of Cornish hills, President Wilson since yesterday has been giving care full consideration to Germany's latest note on submarine warfare. He is be- heved to have mapped out in a general way the next step to be taken by the United States, though there will be no final decision until the situation has been fully discussed with the cabi- net
 It now seems probable that the pres ident will be back in Washington in time for the cabinet meeting next Fri day. The note was despatched from Washington as soon as it was decoded today, and the president will get into communication tomorrow with Secre- tary Lansing and Secretary Tumulty regarding the advisability of the for mer coming here.
 No fnkling has been given of what MT. Wilson thinks should be the policy of the United States in view of what officials generally consider the unre- sponsive and unsatisfactory nature of the German note. He has been study ing and thinking over the text as ca- bled from Berlin to The Associated Press.
 Instead of going to church today, he spent the entire morning and afternoon in seclusion at Harlakenden house or strolling about the grounds. In the evening he read to his family.

 Both vessels, the British steamships Howth Head and Baron Napier, clear ed with cargoes of mules for the Brit ish army. July and sailed the nMt day, the former for Dublin and Bel fast via Norfolk and the latter direct for Monmouth.
 Confederate of Muenter.
 New Orleans, July 11-A letter re- ceived by a newspaper here tonight signed "Pearce" declared the writer intended to kill J. P. Morgan and Sir Cecil Spring Rice, the British ann bassador, and finish the work of Erich Muenter, who committed suicide sev- eral days ago, after wounding Mr. Morgan.
 After announcing his intention to Kill MT. Morgan to avenge the death of Holt, the letter writer says:
 Holt CMuenter) was my partner and I glory in the thought of his com radeship. We worked together ever since this cursed war began. Holt is gone, but l am still here and am going to carry on the work the two of us began. I am going to carry on the work with redoubled fury.
 Just as Muenter appealed to Froh- man, Vanderbilt and the others not to sail on the Lusitania, so I now ap- peal to worthy Americans in this country not to sail on the British mule ships leaving this port. Re- member I am Muenter's pupil and very, very seldom has Muenter fail ed. Muenter's methods are my meth oda am working with enough ex- plosives to wreck this whole town. have a program to follow: British ships, Morgan, Sir Cecil Spring Rice and then oblivion. have Muenter's s backing and-I have dynamite.
 If you will look up the records you will discover the names of two of His Majesty's ships that have just left port-perhaps never to return. One of them is called Howth Head. the other Baron. Have you relatives on either ow these ships? If you have, I feel. srry for you if you are an American If you are azsubject of His Majesty, congratulate myself.

The British Ministers Salary.

The salaries of cabinet ministers, which are now being pooled by private arrangement, were settled at their present official figures for the most part by an arrangement made as long ago as 1881, though there have been increases in some of the salaries since then where a post has risen in im- portance. Before the Wellington de- bacle of 1890 salaries were on a. com plicated scale. made up of fees, allow ances, sinecures and reversions, so that a good deal depended on the greed or moderation of the individual minister. Some founded great fortunes, like the Danby who became Duke of Leeds and the Black Funereal Finches." Some left office poorer than when they en- fact that among these must be reck- oned that Duke of Newcastle who is always cited as combining in himself every one of the vices of corrupt period
 But when the Grey ministry was formed ministers put their salaries at the disposal of the Commons, and the E 5000 year limit for the greater purely political offices was arranged. In 1850, the situation was reviewed. and it was agreed that the salaries were not by any means too large Peel quoted Burke's statement that a min ister who looked after the state rarely had time to look after his own affairs. If the minister sees that the state takes no detriment. the state must see that his affairs take as little"-a fine sentiment to which the only possible objection is that, the logical converse of it might be awkward for some peo- pie. As far back as 1850 the authori- ties agreed that salary of z 1900 or 2 2000 year was no incentive to men of the highest intellectual quality to devote themselves to politics, and it is in the interests of these lesser stars (from salary point of view) that the ''pooP' has been ranged.-Mancheste Guardian.

EHect of the Gas.
"PEARCE."

From yesterday afternoon through the night, all available ambulances, sanitary wagons and tramcars, the latter specially rigged into eInou- lances, have been carrying victims Of the German gas attacks from the south to the many hospitals in War saw. The Associated Press corre- spondent visited several hospitals to view at first hand the results of in haling the asphyxiating gases used by the Germans. In one hospital three hundred beds were occupied by men with liver colored faces, blood-shot eyes, nearly lifeless, but with open mouths gasping for breath Six vic tims died in the ambulance en route from the Warsaw-Vienna railway station. All night the doctors and nurses worked untiringly applying remedies for the relief of the fearful sufferings of the patients. Injection of a camphor solution under the skin appears to be the most effective treatment so far discovered The gas appears to have the effect of turning the blood of the victim inky- black The patients lie motionless, seeming ly in a stupor, the heavy breathing interrupted from time to time by a racking cough.

two countries concerning the marking of the neutral ships.
 There is no intention, from indica- tfons in official quarters, to force a situation, but in whatever policy is followed the American endeavor will be to place full responsibility on Ger many for any subsequent rupture in friendly relations. Since the Lusitania was sunk on May there has been no violation of the principles for which the United States has contended, un- less the mishap to the Nebraskan can be included, and in that case the Washington government has not final ly reached a conclusion as to whether a mine or torpedo caused the explo- sion. In the view of many officials, should German submarine commanders continue in practice to respect Ameri- can rights discussion could continue. There were intimations, however, that in the next communication the United States most likely would impress upon the German government the serious any further violation of American rights as proclaimed in the notes a1- ready sent
 Evasion on Lusitania Case.
 The chief obstacle. it appears, how ever, to permitting virtually a status quo ot continue while further notes are exchanged. is the treatment which 1OAAACLiJ StSCn lO l0f 6uS1ldIl1d case. The United States has asked for disavowal of intent to kill Ameri- cans and for reparation, although the matter has been subordinated to the greater consideration of whether Ger many legally justified the action of the submarine commander or would admit liability. No direct answer on the questions of law involved was given in the last note and the quick sinking of the vessel was attributed to peculiar circumstances" such as the presence of high explosives. High officials re- gard this as an evasion, pointing out that even if there were explosives on the ship, which is not admitted, they never would have been ignited but for the German torpedo.
 Basis for Negotiation.
 Opinion in German quarters here is much the same as that which has been reflected in press comment from Ber- lin. Count Won Bernstorff, the German ambassador, is satisfied with the Ger man reply and thinks it offers a basis for negotiation. He does not believe a break between Germany and the United States is now probable, and is satisfied that the suggestions carried by pr. Meyer-Gerhard to urge the German foreign office to adopt a friendly tone in it's reply were follow ed. With the United States an active champion for the cause of neutral rights, German officials here say they foresee an amicable understanding eventually on the question of the free dom of the seas.

Washington, July 11.-FormaI study tDf the official text of Germany's reply Ito the American note on submarine Fwarfare as it affects neutral rights strengthens the conviction of high of- relations between the two countries has been reached.

 No Action for Week Yet.
 That there will be no action by the United States for at least another week was indicated today. Several days will be required to measure fully the consequences and responsibilities which will be incurred by the Ameri- fcan government in framing a policy to meet the situation firmly.

 Official Text Arrives.
 Today the official text of the German reply arrived and was made public. It differed in only a few unimportant words from The Associated Press copy which came from Berlin Friday night. The official version was delayed in transmission because of the time re- quired for enciphering and decodfng. 7Comparison of the two texts reveal that they were cabled from the same translation and that The Associated Press copy in transmission had omit ted few scattering words which did not alter the sense or meaning
 No Surrender. of Rights.
 In all quarters here the reply was the single topic of concern. What the action of the American government will be is doubtful largely in the sense that the means of expressing the ideas and purposes of the United States have not yet been decided. It was authori- tatively indicated that obviously there would be no surrender of rights and no acceptance of the German proposal to guarantee immunity to American ships under arrangements to be agreed upon by the naval authorities of the

LoNDoN's COMMENT.
German Reply a Complete Nsgation
 of All President Wilson Stands For.

London, July IF, 12.45 a. m-The London morning newspapers. in their comment on thes German reply to the United States. concerning Germany'si submarine warfare declare that it is a complete negation of everything President Wilson contended for and conveyed in impudent and insulting terms.
 The -Mrning Post finds "something, almost comic in this presentation of a humane power anxious for the Hb- erty of the seas land for the lives Of descendants of John Adams and Ben tamin Franklin, holding the stop watch over its submarine atrocities in order to discover the margin of safety"
 The Daily Chronicle says the Ger. man proposal to license steamers to carry Americans negates the whole position which President Wilson took up and declared himself ready to maintain by any necessary steps and in that sense, because 1t is mbre defi- mite and final, the new note is even more unsatisfactory than its prede- cesSor."
 Main Issue Remains As Before.
 The Times says: The note is a compound of evasion, misstatementi and affrontery, such as only Teutonic diplomacy could have brewed, and is not likely to ease the tension be- tween the two countries The solemn representations of the United States government are treated with the si- license of disdain- The main issue remains as it was. The Germans havo not attempted to meet it, nor are they likely to. aE
 The time is clearly. coming when diplomatic negotiations and remon- strations must give way to some more positive method of asserting Ameri- canL1ghts. unless, indeed, the pres1- dent decides to recede altogether from , his chosen position. On the manner in which President Wilson and his advisers meet this crisis will depend to a very large degree the judgment of the world on the effectiveness, or otherwise of American in1uence-in in- ternational affairs"

On tn Heights of Notre De Iorette, near Arras, France, July 10. via Paris, July 11.-After battling TO days TOT the hill country between Bethune and Arras. the French forces hold all the eminences looking out upon the plain of Flanders. Lille, Douai and Cambra1 all are visible from here.
 In GhastIy Glare At Night.
 Every position along the broad na- tional road between Arras and Beth une has been won except Souchez. and last night another quarter mile or trenches in the Souchez web was torn away The attack was made under parachute rocket lights, the French burning bluish white and the Germans greenish white, covering the scene Of the desperate conflict with a ghastly glow.
 The most desperate fighting has been along the ten mile front from Arras to Aix Roulette. beginning March 8, with the taking of a few hundred yards of trenches on the watershed of Notre Dame de Lorette. Every day since then some section of the Ger man trenches has been taken, lost or retaken.
 Losses Tremendous.
 A correspondent of The Associated Press today went through five or six miles of the trenches formerly held by the Germans and reconstructed by the French, who now have abandoned them to move forward. Upwards of 100, ,000 Germans have fallen or been captured in these trenches according to the French official count. since the second week of March. The French losses, the correspondent was conh- dentialIy informed, while serious, have been much smaller than those of the Germans. There are thickets of little crosses made of twigs tied together, oxroe trenches Some of these graves have been torn up by the shell fire
 The visiting party in the trenches was invited by the soldiers into their shelters which are dry caves with marrow entrances and with clay floors are faintly illuminated by the light which filters in from the entrance or by bits of candle on the inside. Men who had been on duty throughout the night were sleping in these caves.
 Confidence On Firing line.
 The men on the firing line express the utmost confidence that what was done yesterday or this morning, they can keep on doing until the war has been won. They talk as matter of course of another winter campaign be- cause, they say it will take another year to break the German power.
 While the members of the party were waiting at the rendezvous, four automobiles came within German range at dust-raising speed. German six inch shells began dropping in the roadway so accurately that five holes were torn in the concrete after the machines had passed. The shelling of the road continued for some time. One of the French officers remarked that if it were not cloudy day it would be impossible for the party to move safe Ivy evan a considerable distance be- hind the line, bacuase in a brilliant light individuals can be seen miles away and are practised upon by the gunners. It is estimated that if one man is hit for every ton of metal thrown the average is good.
