Washington, Mar. 2.--While Presi-
dent Wilson watchfully waited for
the country to force congress to sup
port him In the international situa-
ton, the storm over his policies
broke today In the senate.
Unexpectedly. the Gore resolution
to warn Americans OF armed ships
OF belligerent nations--the crucial
point In differences between the pre-
sident and congress--came up for
discussion.
Although It was debated nearly
two hours. no action was taken.
Senators heard themselves brand
ed by Senator williams as respon-
sible for casting abroad the impress
sion that congress does not uphold
President Wilson's hands.
Senator Gore. proponent OF the
warning resolution, fought strongly
for his measure. He told his listen
ers he had heard that President VIII
was prepared to go to war II neces-
sary. and that some senators thought
war would be blessing.
His resolution. he said, would save
'madcap Americans" from them
prevent the plunging Of
the nation into bloodshed.
Cores plea FOR giving up the right
Of armed ship travel was based large
ly upon the idea that civilization
abrogates brutal rights" and that
such a right as the one under dis
cussion is the outgrowth Of the days
Of piracy.
Senator Williams voiced the opin-
lon that the presidents desire for
showdown" would result In a
OF certain legislators.

London. Mar. 2.-Freshened BY
respite. the Germans are bombarding
anew the verdun and Champagne
districts, according to Paris reports
today.
This may be the signal for fur
lther German effort to level the Yer.

lsectors.
The general view here is that the

lis preliminary to grand assault up
ON the verdun forts. though some
authorities asserted that the verdun
offensive has been ended because Of
the appalling human sacrifices, and
that new attempt to break the
French line elsewhere will be made.
Although modern conditions Of
attack and defense vary. the old
time fiux between battle and rest IL

Zeitung today. The Germans must
move enormous quantities Of ma
teriais over the hills
Rotterdam dispatches today de-
clared that the kaiser had left Yer
dun Tuesday and returned to Ger
many.
II this be true, it may indicate
either that he is satisfied as to the
future or is personally quitting the
verdun district because Of an aban-
donment of plans for continuing the
onslaught there.
At the same time Geneva reports
said several commanders are OPP
posed to continuance Of the verdun
efforts, and that the Duke OF wur-
temburg has supplanted the crown
prince in direction of affairs on the
western front.
The crisis in the verdun onslaught
came Sunday with a heavy attack
against the Pepper heights"
through Douaumont. Until they
came within close range the Germans
were protected by small hills. but
upon emerging from behind these
they were confronted by hundreds OF
field pieces and machine guns.
After six hours OF butchery, the
Teutons were repulsed. Thousands
of wounded men, many OF them hope
lessly crippled, are reaching Paris.
Reports tell also OF 22o German hos
pital trains sent to Aix-la-C -Chapelle.

The Paris statement, however,

meet tonight in this church are full
Of melancholy but at the same time
glorious interest. They are melan-
chOly beyond the power of tongue
or pen TO describe when we think of
the thousands Of brave soldiers who
fell during that great struggle; but
they are ineXpressibly glorious when
we remember they did not die in

Not Seekers of Glory.
II desire tonight to pay a tribute
10 the patriotism and courage of
these noble men who still live and
who were engaged in that great
struggle. and also the memory of
those martyred heroes who are now
resting in their long resting place.
1t has been well said that YOU, the
heroes Of the Civil war, we're not
seekers after vulgar glory. You were
not animated by the hope OF plumber
nor the love of conquest You fought
for liberty and right. You fought
that men and women might not be
bought and sold You fought that
this country might not be a many
headed warning state. but that it
might be one great nation, sovereign
and free"
At the close of the sermon mo-
