TWO GERMAN ATTACKS
RESULT IN FAILURE
nv ASSOCIATED Pass,

PARIS, May 20. Two attacks
were made by German troops advanc-
ing last night from Corbeaux wood
on the Verdun front. The French
war office report OF today says these
assaults resulted in failure.
East of the Mouse the night was
comparatively calm except for heavy
artillery action In the vicinity of Fort
Vaux.
Fifteen aerial encounters occurred
and two German machines were
brought down, one Of them falling
in flames.
The statement continues:
While one of our pilots was maxi
ing trial flight he was attacked in
the region of the river Aisne by a
German Fokker. The enemy machine
fired over thousand shots at the
French aviator. Under this hail Of
bullets and in spite of the fact that
his machine was virtually cut TO
pieces by this fire the French aviator
succeeded in getting back to our
.lines, followed by his adversary. An
other French machine came forward
and attacked the German. He was
not more than thirty yards distant
and was brought to the earth at
point near Bourgogne, west of
Rheims.
ON the left bank of the Mouse
cannon mounted on automobiles
brought down two German air ma
chimes, the first to the north OF Avo-
court and the second In the direction

Treatment as Allies Get.

PARIS, May ga despatch from
Athens says that grave trouble has
broken out there following the news

Bulgarians.
Bulgarian troops crossed the Greek

Spatoyo. The Greek troops, which
had garrisoned the forts, withdrew on
the advance of the Bulgarians, who
claimed permission from the Athens
government Tor their act.
The Bulgarians were said to be
led by German officers, who explained
to the Greek commanders that the
Central powers were merely being
accorded the same privilege that had
been given the Entente Allies in per-
hitting them to occupy Salonikl.

ROOSEVELT
DOMINATES
SITUATION
ColoneIs Opposition Likely to
Prevent Hughes Being
Candidate.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-In tive
weeks the Republican convention
which assemblies in Chicago on June
Z. will have ended its deliberations
and selected nominees of the party
for president and vice president. This
action will mark tho most mo.
mentous work of the party since the
Civil war days. What Is done al
Chicago will mean either an united
party, and probably success in No.
vember, or the continuance of dtvid.
ed party councils und defeat.
Thero are two propositions being
considered by Republican leaders
here. Tho first Ia: Can Roosevelt
be elected II nominated. The second
Is: Justice Hughes Is admitted to be
strong candidate before the people
with good chances of election II sup
ported by Roosevelt after the nomina.
ton. In the last analysis. therefore,
Colonel Roosevelt is seen to be the
most dominant factor in the Republi-
can situation.
The sentiment for Justice Hughes
Is 80 strong that he might be nomi-
mated against the opposition OF
Roosevelt. But Mr.. Hughes would
not accept a nomination unless II
came from q united convention.
Justice Hughes's friends claim he
has 40 votes favorable to him, which
includes the eight delegates from
Vermont who, on Friday, were in
structed to support Hughes by the
party convention. Roosevelt is con-

NO NOTE
Is Brought from General Car.
rama by Foreign Office
Attache, He Says.


WASHINGTON, May 29.-Manuel
Mendez, an attache of General Car
ranza's foreign ONCE, arrived here
Monday and conferred with Elisero
Arredondo, the Mexican ambassador,
but denied that he brought a note as
had been expected or that he brought
any instructions from his chief. He
declared he was merely In the United
States on vacation.
Mr.. Arredondo and other Mexican
officials protested to be puzzled. 1t
has been reported from Mexico City
and the border that a special mes
senger was bringing a new commune
cation from General Carranza. No
indication of its contents has been
given but 1t generally has been as
sumed by American officials that the
expected note probably renewed de-
mands for withdrawal Of American
forces or made a protest against the
second punitive expedition led by Col
onel Sibley and Major Langhorne.
