PARIS

Paris, Feb, 20.-In Belgium. after
violent bombardment OF our posi-
tons. the Germans tried to cross the
User Canal at Steenstraete. Some
German groups were able to reach our
first line trenches, where we at once
dtslodged them.
In Champagne our artillery was ac-
tive against the German organiza-
tons to the north of Tahure and to
the east of Navarin.
In Argonne we exploded two mines
at Vauquois, which destroyed the Ger
mans works.
Between the Mouse and the Moselle
our batteries bombarded the Germans
establishment in the direction OF
Etain Warcq and st. Hilaire, causing
several fires and very violent ex-
plosion: at the south OF st. Mihiel we
directed a very effective fire again>v
the German defensive works to the
west of Apremont forest. -
A German aeroplane threw some
bombs on Dunkirk without causing
any material damage. Another aero
plane. last night. threw two bombs.
which fell in prairie to the south OF

The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1916-02-21

The situation is not view as alarm
ing. as AT resent it is discussion %
prfncfples. But If each government per
/ sists In its course IL Is feared that q,
serious deadlock viii be reached.
.tuntion Summarized.
In the language Of a competent au-
thority. the situation was summarized
as follows;
Germany has given notice sub
stantially that she will SINK armed
merchantmen without warning. This
government thinks that whether
merchantmen is armed for defense
only or armed in the sense implied
ry Germany is a question of fact and.
therefore, that the offensive armament
cannot be assumed. This goVernneht
has sent instructions TO lis aHnpas-l
sadors and ministers ana THESE ih-
structions make no distinction as n.
tween merchantmen. We resaru
liners passenger ships, freight-carry-
ing ships, and even tramps, as en-
titled to all the obligations due from
helligerents and neutrals under inter-
rational law. This attitude OF ours
has never been changed Expressions
to the effect that the law might be
changed or new regulations made, did
not, because they could not. change
international law The United states
alone could not change a law even
If it had made suggestions which are
not now international law. Neither
the German government or any otner
had a right to assume that any sug-
gestion by the United States MADE IN
the memorandum which was sent 10
the Allies. and not to Germany, could
be a justification for the belief By Ger
many that the United States wouio
undertake to change internanohai
law"
Oficials are not prepared to say that
a middle ground may not be suggest
ed. If there is such suggestion they
will consider it, The reply pf the
German government to the expression
of views given by the United states
last week may change the situation.
1T might materially modify the re-
lations of the two countries to the
controversy" was the way the admin
istration authority put 1t.

shortly after the cutting occurred. the
victim was rushed to the nearest ply
stefan. where medical attention was

ing pending the arrival of officers from

do not bear out the assertions made.
II Is declared the State Department
will consider the incident satisfactorily
closed.
Officials today recalled that during
the Lusitania negotiations surprise
was expressed in an official note by this
government that Count Won Bernstorff
should have resorted TO the news
papers to address the people of the
United States" This was the warnin q
advertisement published by the Ger
man embassy before the Lusitania
sailed 1t was referred to in Secretary
Bryan's first Lusitania note on May / 8
as Surprising irregularity."
Another important development in
the situation affecting German-Amer-
lean relations today was the announce
ment made on highest authority that
the United States intends to stand firm
on Its position that all merchantmen,
regardless Of class or size, must be
treated alike by Germany and Aus
ira in submarine operations. 1t was
stated that there can be no middle
ground.
The wide divergence OF views be-
tween the German and Austrian de-
cress and the instructions sent to
American ambassadors, ministers and
consular officers creates a conflict for
which no present solution Is seen by
administration officials.
