KITCHENER MAKES
SERIOUS CHARGES
Says Germans are Mistreating
British Prisoners.

London, April 2S.-War Secretary
Kitchener told the house of lords that
British prisoners had been insulted,
maltreated and even shot down by
their German captors.
He made a statement to the house
on this subject, in which he said in
part:
II have been forced with reluctance
to accept as indisputably true the
maltreatment by the German army of
British prisoners. The Hague con-
vention has been tiagrantly disregard
ed by German officers. Our prisoners
have been stripped and maltreated in
various ways and in some cases the
evidence goes to prove that they have
been shot in cold blood. Our officers.
even when wounded, have been wan
tonly insulted and frequently struck.
Earl Kitchener said he hitherto had
always held German officers in re-
spect, but constant testimony that
has come in, not only from our own
escaped prisoners, but from French.
sources, has brought it home to all
that the inhumanity displayed by the
German officers toward the British
prisoners, especially, is beyond
doubt
The secretary read articles from
the conventions adopted at The Hague
relating to the treatment of prison
ers of war. He added:
II think it only fair to say that the
German hospitals should be excepted
There have been indications of lacl,
of medical skill and of indifference
to suffering on the part CT hospital
orderlies. On the other hand, there
are statements from prisoners that
their experience in the hospitals did
not form ground for complaint

ALLIES CHECK
TEUT0nS' RUSH.

HARD FIGHTING IN TURKEY |:I Y,

Picturesque Assortment Of Allied
. Troops, Supported by the Fire Of
Warships, Are, Trying to Battle
Their Way Through Thousands of
Turks and Capture constantinopIe.
London, April 2S.-On the narrow,
rocky Gallipoli peninsula in Turkey
and on. restricted front stretching
northward from Ypres, in Belgium,
two Of the most vital struggles of the
war now are in progress. Neither
struggle has yet reached a stage
which would permit of prediction of
the ultimate result.
In the Gallipoli peninsula fighting a
picturesque assortment of allied
troops landed Sunday, supported by
the fire of the warships, and are try
ing to batter their way through thou
sands of German differed Turks in an
effort to force the Dardanelles-the
main gateway of the Ottoman empire
and reach Constantinople.
According to the British claim the
attack is progressing, but Turkish
communication received declares that,
although the allies landed forces at
beaten back to the coast, while the
Moslems in the French ranks are de-
sorting the tri-color and casting their
lot with their countrymen.
Equally contradictory are the Off
cial statements concerning the fight
ing in the vicinity of Ypres. It would
appear that the German offensive
north of that city, which resulted in
their recent gain of nearly three miles,
has reached it's limit and that, al
though the Germans hold most of the
ground they gained, the question now
is whether they have sufficiently con-
solidated the new line to retain it.
The rush over the British troops are
said to have taken the offensive and
are striking toward St. Julien, which
the Germans captured, while the
French on the British left not only
have pushed the Germans from Ii
Zerne, their new lodgment on the west
bank of the canal nearest Calais, but
have crossed the canal and hold Het
Sas, on the east bank.
The German official communication,
which records no progress for the
German troops, admits the British
took the offensive towards st. Julien
but insist the successive attacks broke
down.
Some sections of the British press
profess the belief that the crisis in
the new battle, or series of battles,
for the French coast has passed, but
others are of the opinion that the end
is not yet.
The fate of Calais still hangs in
the balance" says the Evening News.

They are not starving and they are
capable of great sustained offensive
