Accent Terms Of Settlement

Washington, April 28.-The second
note from the United States govern.
ment to Germany concerning the sink.
ing of the American ship William P.
Frye, by the commerce raider Prinz
Eitel friedrich, was dispatched to Ber-
lin today. 1t is understood to accept
the German proposition to compensate
the owners of the Frye under the
terms of the old Prussian-American
treaties regardless of any prize court
decision.
These treaties provide that contra
band belonging to subjects of either
party shall not be confscated by the
other in any case but may be detained
or used in consideration of payment
of full value.
While willing to agree to the pay
ment of the Frye as proposed the
United States stands by it's original
protest against the destruction of the
ship as violation of International law
and again denies that the cargo of
wheat consigned to British port was
contraband. No claim for the cargo
was made because it was sold enroute
to British dealers.

School District


To the Taxpayers of Valley City
School District:-
It will, no doubt, be of interest to-
you to learn that during the past year
$4,000 of bonds issued in 1894 and
bearing six per cent interest, per an
mum, have been paid, and the bonded
debt of the district reduced from $751;
500 to $31,500, bearing interest at four
per cent per annum.
1t is doubtful if there is another city
in the state of North Dakota that has
such small school debt.
The assessed valuation for the year
1914 was $1,57O,424, and the tax levy
for 1914 was 100000, for all purposes,
or trifle less than twenty mills.
There are no outstanding warrants,
and on this date there is $5,037.32 in
the treasury. From these figures, it
will be seen that the district is in ex-
cellent financial condition.

II believe that when the invading

Berlin, April 2S.-Halil Bey, former

now here, has received a telegram
from Constantinople, stating that 5000
French, British and Russian soldiers

London, April 2S.-"Our operations
in conjunction with the French have
definitely stopped the German attack
Thus Field Marshal French, com
mander-in.chief of the British forces,
announced the conclusion of another
German attempt to break through the
allied lines around Ypres and along
the User canal, which brought about
one of the most sanguary battles Of
the war. This, however, only brings
to an end the first phase of the battle,
for the allies have yet to win back
the ground they lost in the great Ger
man sweep.
For this purpose they are now de-
livering counter attacks against the
Germans. Only at one place, Stems
traate, have the Germans managed to
keep a footing on the western bank of
the canal, while to the north of Ypres
the positions remain much as they
were, the allies making no claims to
advance there, and the Germans re-
porting all British attacks repulsed
To hold the lines the Germans have
brought up further reinforcements,
the towns and villages of Belgium
behind the German line being guarded
only by handful of sentries.
The fighting continues in Cham
payne where the Germans claim the
capture of a strong French position;
in Argonne and Woevre, where the
French say they are progressing and
in the Vosget where both sides claim
the possession of Recommendations

driven the Russians from Bukowina.
There is also a renewal of activity on
the east Prussian front where the
Germans report successes.

troops had been driven to the sea on
the Gallipoli peninsula and that 10000
were captured comes from Berlin. 1t
