DARDANELLES STRONG.
German Of6cer Writes That Defenders
Have Confidence.

Berlin, April IA German officer oil
high rank in a letter written from Con.
stantinople on March IA lays emphasis
upon the strength of the Dardanelles de-
lenses. He says:
"Our enemies have suffered two dis
appointments. The first was the effect
WHICH surprised even ourselyesof the
middle and light artillery against armor-
ed ships. The second was the good
shooting OF the Turkish artillery. This
latter has, no doubt, been put down by
the English TO German gunners, but the
Turkish soldier, with his wonderful calm,
is well adapted for artillery work, if
only he is given some practice and if
there is proper control of fire
The heavy Turkish batteries have thus
far been very silent, and their time is
still to come. Numerous hidden battery
positions have not been in action at
all.
I've contemplate therefore, with com
plete calm and confidence renewed at
tempts to break through, although we
do not fail to appreciate the great
and the difficulty of our task. The troops
are in the best spirits, well fed and ade
quately equipped, They will certairA do
their duty if the enemy, whose isolated
attempts at landing have hitherto been
quickly repealed. decide to land stronger
forces"

FOUND SOME POTASH.
But Not Enough for Commercial Pur-
poses in Nevada.

In searching for a domestic source oil
potash in the United States, the geologi-
cal survey has explored more or less
thoroughly a number of the desert ba-
sins in the West Among the regions
| Investigated is the mud fiat known as
! Columbus marsh, which lies midway be-
tween Reno and Tonopah, New, and has
an area of about 35 square miles. Nine
shallow wells have been sunk in this
marsh and the borings and waters have
been examined for potash. Though com
mercal quantities of potash were not
found and no saline beds were encoun-
tered, the data obtai lined in the explora-
ton, like much of the survey work.
have scientific value. A more extern
sive chemical study has been made of the
muds from one of the wells by w. b.
Hicks, and the results are given in a
recent survey publcation--"Co
of muds from Columbus marsh, New, -
issued as professional paper 95-A. This
report shows that the muds contain a
high percentage of potassium, only
small part of which, however, is soluble
in water The results of the chemical
study indicate further that large part
of the potassium in the muds has been
absorbed from solution and is held in
loosely combined form. This condition
may account for the apparent disappear
ance of the potassium from the salines
of the desert basin region, and should
have bearing on future exploration for
potash

FRENCH AvIATORS BUSY.
Dropped Bombs on Several Places in
Germany.

Paris, via London, April 1.-THE fol
lowing French official statement regard
ing the progress of the fighting in the
western theatre of the war was giver
out here last night:
Our aviators were very active. Ten
bombs were thrown on the workshops
OF the railway station of Leopoldshoehe
east of Huringue, which were being used
Tor the manufacture of shells. Then
bombs were dropped on the powder mag
azine at Rothwell. Six struck the mark
and a huge red flame shot up, surrounded
by dense smoke. The aeropanes were
struck by shell splinters, but returned
safe and sound
Forty bombs, most of which struck
their mark, Were dropped on the central
electric station of Mazieres Les Metz,
10 kilometers about ten miles, north of
Metz. This station supplies the town
and forts of Metz with power and light
"Much smoke rose from the central
building. On their return our ayiators
encountered three aviators to whom they
gave chase, forcing them to land. Our
squadron suffered no mishaps, although
subjected to violent cannonade from the
Metz forts.
AT Notre Dame DE Lorette the Ger
mans delivered three counter attacks,
each was preceded by violent lombard
ment. They were all stopped short at
the outset. They also failed in a coun-
ter-attack at Les Eparges last night.
AT Bots De Montemare there was an
artillery duel. We silenced three batter
les and blew mp an ammunition depot"
London, April IL, :25 a. m. Reuters

following:
"The Stuttgart army commander an
nonnccs that Yesterday morning a French

ARIZONA WOMAN WAS
 S0ULMATE VICTIM IN LOS ANGELES TRAGEDY
Mrs. Jack Carter Had Tired of W. H. Warren Who Shot Her Following Quarrel and Then Committed Suicide.

PHOENIX. July 26.-Mrs. J. l.. ( ar ter, who was raised at Mesa and Lehi. and who was a sister of A. A. Gibson. known as Art" and former proprie- tor of the Hoffman Cafe, who lives at No 52l North Fifth street, this city, was murdered yesterday at Los An geles by W. II. Warren, a well known Los Angeles and Long Beach police investigator. who afterwards killed himself
 A telegram announcing the murder was received today by Gibson and he win leave tonight for the coast city. ! The telegram was sent from Mrs Car. ter's husband who was then at San Francisco and who said he would leave at once for Los Angeles. It gave no details other than that the woman had been murdered. Mrs Carter was about 55 years old and was born in Utah. While a small child she moved to Lehi with her par | ents and later to Mesa where her mother Mrs Ruth Gibson. now re- sides. She also leaves a sister at Me ! sa, a sister at Tempe. and brothers l in Payson and Bisbee.
 Last nights Los Angeles Express | contained the following account of the murder and suicide:
 Fearful of losing the love of his soulmate' which apparently was grow ing cold w. II Warren, well known Los Angeles and Long Beach police | investigator, today shot and killed Mrs J. l.. Carter his beautiful com panion, and then shot himself fatally. ] The tragedy occurred in a room at the Alhambra Annex. 323 North Broadway.
 Then, as if to satisfy that love which would not be denied, Warren threw himself alongside the dead body of the woman and clasped her in his arms. They were lying in that posi- ton when Mrs. C. H. Merrill, manager of the apartment house. found them a minute later.
 That the tragedy had occurred after Mrs. Carter had made frantic efforts to force her way from the room. and that Warren had cooly told her of his purpose while they awaited the arri. val of revolver for which he had sent to commit the crime. is evident from l assertions made to the police by Mrs 1 Merrill and Thomas Westminster, a messenger boy
 Westminster said he was called to the Alhambra shortly before noon by | Warren, who told him to cash a check at the Security bank and then go tC the Government Loan office, 432 4tl and Main streets, and purchase a re volver for $6.5O
 Westhauser said he did this and took the revolver to Warren. Al Warren met him at the door a woman he said attempted to push her way out of the room.
 Please let me go and telephone, she said
 "You get back there" Warren tol, her. and showed her back.
 The messenger boy said he told th, landlady that the couple were quarrel ing, but she told him 1t was none O his business A few moments late she heard four shots she told the DO lice
 The police found the bodies lyinl on the floor with the revolver under meath. The first theory entertaine'
 by the police that the shooting migh
 be the result of a suicide pact wa
 cast aside when Westminster told hi
 story of the woman's effort to ge out of the room.
