Aerial Duels Rage.

There has been considerable artil-

tween battalions Of German and Brit
ish aviators along the British front
in France and Belgium.
In lengthy statement in reply to
an official communication issued from
Constantinople, the Russian general
staff describes the powerful defenses
which guarded Erzerum, and declares
that the force of the blow dealt by the
Russians can be estimated by the
fact that some of the Turkish army
corps of three divisions each now
number only a few thousand men, all
the remainder either having perished
or having been taken prisoners.
Details are lacking concerning the
disaster to the French auxiliary
cruiser Provence, which has been lost
in the Mediterranean. While the

Germans Gain More Points.

The Germans have added several
additional points to their terrain in
the fighting about Verdun, having
been enabled to construct trenches on
the slopes north of the Cote du Poivre
and to capture an armored work
northwest of Douaumont, and have
taken the towns of Manhuelles and
Champion, 13 miles southeast of Ver-
dun.
In this drive to the east of Verdun
the advance of the Germans has ex-
tended over front of virtually IL
miles-from Dieppe to Champion.
Berlin reports that thus far they
have taken prisoner 22S officers and
16,575 men, and captured large num-
ber of guns, machine guns and much
war material.

the armed merchantmen controversy
and recognize that it is not matter
of legislative, but Of executive con-
cern
At an early conference at the White
House today President Wilson and
administration leaders made plans for
bringing the armed ship agitation in
Congress to an end at once with a
demonstration Of unity to convince
Germany that the American Congress
stands behind the foreign policy of
the government.
President Wilson reiterated to the
leaders that, while dessensions in the
American Congress over the question
Of warning Americans not to travel
en- the armed ships of the European
belligerents was being made "indus-
trious use of in foreign capitals" and
being pictured as evidence that the
country does not support the presi-
dent in his stand for the observance of
the laws of nations and humanity,
his negotiations with Germany are
embarrassed, and, in fact, cannot be
continued.
Confident that they can beat all
anti-administration resolutions by a
heavy vote, the president and the
leaders framed plans to bring them
out first on the floor Of the house,
where they plan to defeat them.

month, when all the Allies will be
ready to participate in a general Of
fensive.
London, March with the les
sening of the activity of the contend
ing forces to the north of Verdun,
the French in the Woevre region, east
of Verdun, are using their artillery
to break up German preparations for
further advances toward the fortress.
At various points the fire of the
French guns has prevented the Ger
mans from launching offensives.
In the Vosges mountains there also
has been great artillery activity by
the French near Scnones and Ben de
Sapt, while near Seppois the Ger
mans have been driven out of
trenches they had previously taken.
In the Champagne, German fortified
works in the region of Hill 1913 have
been battered by the French guns and
the crater of a mine exploded by
the Germans was occupied by the
French.

New York, March 2.-The lull in
the fighting for the last two days at
Verdun probably cannot be taken as
an indication that the great struggle
at that point is over, and yet it must
be construed as recognition by Ger
many that once more she has been
checkmated by the Allies.
To the extent that Germany has
failed at Verdun she is construed by
military men to have failed in the
war, for this was her supreme effort,
unquestionably made to forestall the
offensive movement by the Allies
which is expected along all lines in
about a month.
Reports indicate that the French
and English have more than million
fresh troops in reserve, ready to bring
into action should the Germans break
through the lines at any point.
The belief here is that the losses
of the Germans have been so terrible
and the trainloads of wounded so nu-
merous that the German nation has
been appalled, and the Kaiser did not
dare offer up greater sacrifices for
fear of the future of his dynasty.
It is believed the French losses have
been great, but not nearly so heavy
as those of the Germans.
It is a question whether, now that
the German offensive has been
checked, the French will follow with
a counter offensive, throwing forward
their great reserve force, or will wait
for the more favorable weather con-
ditions that are to be expected in about

Paris, March 2.-That the situation
around Verdun is now well in hand
and considered quite satisfactory
from the French point of view is free
ly stated by the military experts.
To the northeastern part of the
stronghold the chief effort of the
Germans seem to be directed to the
rescue of the Brandenburgers, who
remain cooped up in the ruined case
ments of Fort Douaumont.
The development: of the German
operations southeast of Verdun is
interpreted by the observers as pre-
liminary to an attempt to assail the
French positions on the Meuseheights
through two principal gaps through
the woods, which are protected by
Fort Tavannes, east by northeast of
Verdun and southeast of Fort Dou-
aumont, and by Fort Roszelier, to the
southeast of the fortress
Both sides are profiting by the
period of comparative calm to bring
up fresh forces and supplies of am
munition.

bassador Gerard at Berlin asking by
what ship the appendices to the Ger
man memorandum notifying this gov

sunk without marning beginning
March Z had been dispatched and when
they might be expected to arrive
here.
The appendices are said to reveal
the existence of secret orders of the
British admiralty instructing British
merchantmen to attack enemy sub
marines.
Germans latest assurances on he
conduct of submarine warfare, pre-
sented by Count Won Bernstorff to
Secretary Lansing, are not so broad
as the United States desires, but, it
is indicated, no further steps will be
taken by this government until the
administration is certain it's action
will not be embarrassed in Congress.
The assurances reiterated in the
latest communication are regarded as
not so complete as those originally
given as the result of the Lusitania
negotiations, and it was indicated to-

ment would not be finally accepted
as satisfactory at this time
