 VERDUN

PARIS. March 2S. - The war office announced today that there had been no changes along the fighting front north and west of Verdun during the night. That the Germans have not given up their attempt to take the fortress is believed to be true, and the French officials are quietly strengthening their trenches at all points. Yesterday, east of the Mouse, the entire front was calm, the usual artillery bombardment being omitted, the men having their first restful day for weeks. West of the Mouse a few artillery squalls arose. which did not last long, and which were vigorously replied to by the French guns.

tary of State Robert Lansing an nounced after the cabinet meeting to- day that the United States had al ready instituted an investigation into the sinking of the Sussex. As a part of the work, official inquiries had been made of the German government as to whether or not a German submar- inc had torpedoed the channel liner
 Other cabinet members are quoted as saying that the evidence produced be- fore the meeting was not conclusive enough to warrant this government to take decisive action at this time, al though it was also intimated that the cabinet was divided on this matter
 The majority of the presidents advis- CTS believe that the preliminary re- port of the catastrophe clearly in dicates that the Sussex was torpe- doed, and was not struck by a mine. The action to be taken by the gov

SUFF FRAGE AND 7, PROHIBITION |S POSTPONED

WASHINGTON, March 2S. - The House committee today passed by a vote of ten to nine, a resolution to postpone indefinitely the consideration ,of all the prohibition and woman suf- frage propositions now before it. If the action of the committee is sus- tained in the House, which is likely, because of the pressure of more i'm portant legislation, including the pre- paredness and shipping measures, as well as the tariff commission bill, it will mean that these questions will not be considered at all during the present session of Congress. Among the measures which will be tabled will be the Smith bill providing for pro hibition in all the territories, depen- dencies and in the District of Colum- bia. The advocates of woman suf- frage will undoubtedly attempt to have the House reverse the commit tees action.
