Bodies Stacked in Trenches and in Piles Evidence AW
 full Carnage in West.
HUNGARIANS ARE
 READY TO REVOLT
With French steadily Progressing To- ward Metz, and Russians Pursuing Fleeing tnstrianS in Hungary,
 Critical Period Near.

London, April 9.-Further giant strides were made by the French to- day in their drive on the Saint Mi hel salient.
 Les Eparges has been captured aft CT stubborn defense and the French now dominate the entire plain of the Woevre.
 Sixteen hundreds yards of trenches were captured in the operations. The final stage of the battle for this all important position lasted two days, this afternoon in the ut ter rout of the kaser's forces. Heavy losses were suffered on both sides.
 This startling gain. following close 0 nthe French advance of two miles at two different places, recorded in official reports from Paris. show that the Germans are caught in a viselike grip and that the jaws of steel are closing on the wedge which protects the Metz line of communications.
 The French statement mentions the capture of only 150 prisoners. This speaks volumes for the carnage wrought in this fighting, the most des- perate yet seen on the eastern end of the western front. Both sides tell of trenches filled with dead, of heaps of dead left on the battle field and of great columns cut down under the whitening fire of machine guns and ex- ploding shrapnel.
 The road to Metz is opening fact be- fore the French advance. The drive is being pushed almost without regard for human life. Three lines of attack are being followed. east of Verdun, between St. Mhiel and Pont-a-M Nous son, and along the valley of the Orne.
 Germans Fight DOggedly.
 Desperate attacks are being met with terrific counter attacks in the wooded region to the south. In the Alley forest. the French have pressed forward distance of 200 yards on a section of the front 400 yards wide, and have successfully withstoOd three counter attacks.
 Fifteen attacks were delivered by the Germans nthe trenches taken by the French yesterday, but each time the German efforts were repelled.
 On these operations the German. war office is strangely silent, except to say that the fighting is increasing in violence and that the French attacks have been unavailing.
 An action, evidently intende dto di- vert attention from the field between the Mouse and the >Moselle, was start ed in the Champagne district during the day. Here the Germans tried to retake a number of trenches which were lost to them last month. but their attacks were broken under the French fire, except at one point where they. broke through and established them- selves in an advanced postiion.

 Asked if he knew of any person or agency outside of the state department who had received information of the kind, the secretary said: --
 We have heard nothing of any progress whatever in that line.'
 Another high official of the govern ment, who comes in frequent contact With the diplomats, said:
 Everything l hear is all on the other side--that this is not the time to be talking peace"
 Alleged Peace Terms.
 The information which is said to have come to this government is that Germany woud consider peace on these terms:
 No extension of territory for any of the belligerents.
 Restoration of all colonies. espe- cially in Africa, as, before the war.
 German evacuation of Belgium with out indemnity from Germany.
 Payment by her to Belgium Of a reasonable sum for the Congo Free state.
