GERMAN EMBASSY IS
VERY MUCH WORRIED
Won IgePs Papers, If He Is An
Official, Place Germany
In Bad Light

Washington, April 22,-The German
embassy expects to receive today or to-
morrow instructions from Berlin with
regard to additional representations
concerning the arrest of Wolf Won Igel
former secretary to Captain Franz Won
Papen, embassy attache, and seizure OF
his papers by United States secret
agents.
The embassy intimated that this stu.
alton is so serious that it may perhap.
warrant Germany recalling AmbassadO,
Won Bernstorff. Germany, it was hin,.
ed, would at least ask formal apology
from the state department.
The papers seized from Won Igel ar.
rived at Washington today. SO photo
graphic copies of them were surrender
ed, however the lattec the United
States marshal refused TO give up with
out specific order to rethr all evi
dence in the case. No sa,h order has
been issued yet.
Won Igel was arrested in connection
with the federal investigation q alleged
German bomb plots.

Menace Not Removed.
By H. D. Jacobs.
United Press staff correspondent

Omitted Press staff correspondent,
Namiquipa Mex, April 22-(By wire.
less to Columbus THE menace from
Francisco Villa and his bandits is no,
believed to have been removed by the
American expedition operations.
Hardly a day passes that small bands
are not sighted and reported. Within
narrowed limits since the Parral clash
the quest FOR Villa continues.
Many wild and contradictory stories
have been received. Some say Villa j
dead and some say he is alive. Th'
report that he is dead and that his body
will be brought from somewhere in Mex
leo over the Mexican Northwestern rail
way for identification is not credited.
While there is no news Of the Par
raj situation. no concern is felt for the
position of advanced detachments near
est the scene of the suspected Carran-
zista trap.
The jagged defiles and canyons IN
this region are ideal hiding places fo'
the Villistas. A band can remain I'M
discovered until reconnoitering parties
fairly stumble upon them.
But the Villistas have evidently had
their fill of American marksmanshtf
in the two OF three clashes which have
occurred already, and they keep out Of
harm IS way.

Germans Make Repeated
Charges But Are Every
where RepuIsed
FRENCH ARTILLERY IS
SENT TO AID BRITISH
Death Of Field Marshal Won
Der GOltz Is Great Loss
To Turkey

Paris, April 22.-Advancing behind a
shrield of liquid fire the Germans dur
ing the night hurled repeated charges
against the northwestern defenses of
Verdun and occupied trenches on the
slopes of Dead Mans hill, it was Of
ficially admitted today. The state
ment added that French counter attacks
completely ousted the Teutons from
their gained positions.
Flame projectors were also used
against the north front of Caurette
wood. Violent fighting developed
along the Meuse north and northeast Of
Verdun following a heavy shelling by
batteries of both sides. The Germans
attempted to take trenches in front of
Fort Vaux prior to hurling charge
against the fortress itself, which is sit
uated on stony height, but the guns
of Vaux and connecting works pre-
vented the Teutons from emerging from
their bomb proofs Artillery caused
heavy losses among few companies of
Germans that scrambled out of their
defenses only to be blown back into
them again.
The fact that there is no shortage in
French artillery despite the vast mum
.ber of guns that have been massed at
Verdun was demonstrated, the war of
flee pointed out, by the fact that scores
of batteries were rushed to the assist
ance of the British in the recent battle
between Ypres and Pillicken.

Nothing Given Oat But Officers

AND THIS WILL Be DONE
If Carranza Offers Opposition
He and It viii Be Swept
Aside

San Antonio, Texas, April 22.--Fol-
lowing a salute Of Is guns which form
ally welcomed General Hugh Scott,
chief of staff to army headquarters
here, secret orders were rushed 10 Brig
adler General j. j. Pershing in the
field. Scott's presence was the sig
nal for renewed activity here. The
important moves are believed to be
the result of the secret orders. II is
not known whether Scott agreed to
change the base of operations to Presi-
dio, Texas, The present communica-
tions line, however, from Columbus to
Namiquipa has practically an inter-
locking sentry system.
The first conference, between Gen
erals Scott and Funston lasted until
nearly midnight Officers professed
to see no likelihood of a withdrawal
from Mexico. Guarded comment was
heard to the effect that the Americans
were ready to meet Carranza opposition
if necessary in their determination to
"get Villa"
1t is believed that Funston has pre-
sented to Scott detailed plan of new
and shorter lines of communication.

Roosevelt May Make
Whirlwind Campaign

Oyster Bay, April 22.-Colonel Roose-
welt may reconsider his plans not to
stump the middle west before the ma.
tional convention, it was hinted today.
He has not yet accepted the invitation
to deliver the Memorial day address at
Kansas City, but it is likely he will do
so.
Should a whirlwind tour of Iowa,
Nebraska and other states revive the
old Roosevelt demonstrations, the col
onel might enter Chicago at dramatic
moment when the stage is set for the
choice of a republican-progressive lead
er, his friends said.
They would then expect a stampede
of delegates from former Roosevelt
strongholds. Roosevelt would not DOM
ment on Henry Ford's showing in Ne
braska which some interpret as proof
that the middle west is against prepar-
edness. Some friends said that Roose-
welt might accept the challenge to car
ry on a preparedness campaign in a
whirlwind tour.
