DUTCH RESERVISTS
READY FOR HOME
Envoy Here Denies Secret
Mission Due to War
Zone Peril.

The threatening situation caused by
the German war zone" in the North
Sea is said to have created so much
anxiety in Holland that the Netherlands
government is reported to have sent
out a call for her reseryists in foreign
countries.
Chevalier W. l.. F. C. Van Rappard,
the Dutch Minister to the United
States, refused to confirm or deny the
rumor uhen seen at the Ritz-Carlton
yes., day. He admitted that he had
come TO New York to consult with A.
Van de Sande Bskhuyzen, the Dutch
Consul General in this city.
At the Netherlands Consulate, at IL
Broadway, it was denied that such an
order had been received. But groups
Of eager men were crowding about its
doors and being admitted one By one
into the private Office of the consul.
Minister Van Rappard refused to dis
cuss the effect of Germany's war zone
edict upon Hollands commerce, saying
that il would be discourteous for him
to make q statement while the question
was being discussed between the State
Department and the German govern
ment. He gave out this statement:
81 am not here in connection with
the sailing OF steamers OF the Holland
America Line. | came here TO have a
consultation wits the Dutch Consul
General and will leave for Washington
in the morning There is no truth in
the reports that am here on 3 secret
mission. In reference TO the war zone
! prefer not 20 make any statement"
II is estimated that there are 10000
Dutch reservists in the United States.

Activity on Western Front

London, Feb. 20.-Renewed activity
all along the line and attacks and coun-
ter-attacks have become much more
numerous. Both the British and the
French seemingly have made consider
able progress at the outset of the Of
fensive operations, and this made it
imperative for the Germans to deliver
counter-attacks TO regain the ground
which they had lost In carrying these
out the Germans have shown the same
desperate spirit which has character
lied their operations under similar cir
cumstances.
In long report covering the weeks
operations to February II French
eyewitness claims for the French many
minor successes and the repulse of
German counter-attacks. The Germans,
too, make similar claims, so that the
public is left TO judge for itself as to
the outcome OF the weeks fareup.
