PRESIDENT WILSON
IN CHARLOTTE
OCCASION BIG SUCCESS.
A Crowd Estimated At Between 75,.
900 and 100000 Atten Goth May
And Hear Nations Chief.

Charlotte, N. c., May 21.-The great
est event in many years in North Caro-
lima was the visit of President Wilson
to Charlotte yesterday to attend the
celebration of the 141st anniversary
Of the signing Of the Mecklenburg
Declaration Of Independence, which
preceded by nearly one year what is
Known as the Declaration Of American
Independence. Mr.. Wilson was acA
companed by Mrs. Wilson, Dr.. Grayson
his physician, Secretary Tumulty,
Secretary Of the Navy Josephus Dan
lels, Congressman Z. Y. Webb, and
Senator Oyerman.
The President was in a happy
frame of mind and while his face
shows the anguish OF care and anx-
iety under which he has labored for
months, his smile Is pleasing. He took
deep interest in all things about
him and the parade was especially
pleasing to him. He appeared much
interested in the floats of the Corn
Club boys, the Tomato Club girls,
and other farm products. These
drew from his solemn countenance
many smiles Of approval from the
President Of the United States.
Mr.. Wilson's speech, which lasted
less than an half hor, was as fol-
lows.

VERDUN BATTLE ENTERS 4th
MONTH
TEUTONS HOLD TO SLOPES
kaiser's Soldiers Must Continue On
slaught, or Abandon Idea Taking
EerGun-BlOOd-S Soaked Sum-
NIT and Sister Eminence
Form Key to System
of Forts Defense.

Paris, May 22.-The battle of Ver-
dun, the longest and most bitterly
! contested individual struggle Of the
: war, enters on its fourth month to-
day. The Germans, with character
istic patience and stubbornness, are
hammering ut Dead Man Hill, where
the most furious and bloody fighting
of the three months conflict has TAX
en place.
\ Bull Dog Grip.
Clinging desperately to the trenches
that they have wrested from the
French Oh the lower slopes Of the
hill, the Teutons have hurled G0,0O0
men backed by 10 batteries of guns
Of all calibers, forward along Il
Seven-mile front from Avocourt wood
to the MeuSe in u desperate eNOrt to
seize the coveted summit.
Germans Heavy Loss.
As has been usual in this war, when
either side launched well prepared
and Strongly-deivered offensive, the
Germans have succeeded in gaining a
footing in the French first line at a
cost of severe losses.
However, Judging from the expert
ence Of the past, it will not be a
difficult task for the French to dis
lodge them before they are able to
follow UP their advantage.
Await Another Offensive.
Both sides will return to their for
mer positions to wait another Of
fenSive. That the Germans must con-
tinue their tremendous onslaught on
Dead Man Hill, OF abandon the idea
of taking Verdun, seems obvious.
This blOOd-soaked summit and its sis
ter eminence, Hill No. 3O4, form the
key Of the whole system Of the Yer
dun's defenses.
Looks Blue For Germany.
The fire from their batteries fianks
the Dounaumont Plateau across the
river. Without the undisputed pos
session of this platsapy-..ss isss,'-ssas-
icS acrcc that no attack Oh Nerdun
has any chance of success.
British Reinforced BY Russian Caval-
ry Are Again Advancing.
The situation generally on the Rus
sian front remains unchanged. The
British operating" against the Turks
in McSopotamia gradually are draw
in. near Kut-el-Amara, where Il
large number of their officers and
still hcing held captive. The British
who have been reinforced by Russian
cavalry now have reached the region
Immediately south Of Kutcl-Amara,
with the intervening territory between
them and their objective clear of the
Turks except for some small rear
guards near the junction Of the Shaft
el-IIai and TigriS Rivers.
