 To the west of the Mouse, midway between Bethincourt and the river, the French have continued on the offen- sive in the Corbeaux wood and are of- ficially reported to have driven the Germans from almost all of that inn portant salient.
 In the eastern theatre the Russians at various points have taken the of- fensive against German advanced po- sitions, but Berlin declares they no- where met with success.
 The Russians on the Black sea coast continue to press toward Turkey s principal port, Trebizond, and also are making progress against the Otto- mans in the Persian sector.
 The Russian foreign office categori- cally denies that Turkey has made peace proposals of any kind.

SENTRY IS KILLED

SENTRY IS KILLED
 Fred Griffin, private, of K troop, was on sentry duty in front of the head quarters and opened fire on party of Mexican attacking the quarters of Lieut.. John P. Lucas, commanding the machine gun troop of Thirteenth cav airy. Griffin fell mortally wounded un- der volley of bullets. but killed two MeXicans and then crawled to the side of the Ryan home. Mrs. Ryan, aris- ing, ran around the side of the house under the fire of the Mexicans to an adobe garage A party of bandits was standing about Griffin.
 She opened the garage when a Mex ican grasped her arm and demanded where she was going. She answered calmly that she was going into the building to get a motor car. The Mex ican let her go and during the fight ing in the camp she remained in the automobile unhurt. Every piece of fur niture in the Ryan home was riddled.
 The Smyser home north of the track was surrounded on front and both sides by bandits before a shot was fired. Captain Smyser heard someone tell the bandits that an American army officer and his family lived there Gathering his wife and children, he emerged from the back door and reached the barn just as the bandits broke in the

LooTED CAPTAINS HOUSE

The bandits footed the house and were preparing to set fire to the barn when the American forces opened fire, leaving Mrs Smyser nothing but the night gown in which she escaped. Captain Smyser managed to join his troop in time to par ticipate in the battle in which the Mex jeans were finally driven from the town.
 Capt F. G. Turner and his wife were in an adobe house just north of the rail- road tracks Mexicans pointed out ms dwelling as a house occupied by an American officer. The Turner's remained inside until the troops in camp got into action and scattered the bandits.
 Villa dropped his personal papers as he went with his fleeing men back into Mexico. A note found among these, evi- dently a transcript of an order issued just before the attack, read: 'Kill all the gringoes."
 Villas presence is accepted here as discrediting his recent assertions that he was not responsible for the assassination of fl Americans west of the city of Chi huahua a few weeks ago.
 That outrage was laid at the door of Pablo Lopez Villas second in command If so, the Americans have apparently been avenged for a body among the invaders slain by the troopers was ident1- fled as that of Lopez.

TENSION IS RELIEVED

Paris, March 9.-The official statement published last night has done much to relieve the tension caused in the public mind by the expectation of 8 great on- slaught on the main French defenses on the west bank of the Mouse. Press and public are now even more than ever convinced that the Germans will not be able to take Verdun
 Military observers express the belief that the Germans originally intended a frontal attack on Verdun, which was to be accompanied by two Hank attacks one in the Woevre, not meant to be pushed home, and the other on the west
 'ank of the Mouse, which might develop into the main attack. Desiring, however, to justify premature announcement or the capture of Douaumont, the Grown Prince kept 100000 men on the right bank of the river against the advice of his gen. erals, who insisted that they could be better employed on the other bank. Now that the Germans have begun the flank late by 10 days.
 Artillerymen on both sides are living to the reputation already established for the battle of Verdun as the greatest ar tillery duel of the war. Many sectors of the French front on Sunday and Monday last received an average of 100000 shells in 12 hours. Whole woods were reduced to kindling material. The little river at Forges disappeared altogether, having been damned in half a dozen places and 30 feet of the crest of Hill 21S. near EOrgeS. was blown away

The first attack on Bethincourt, made on Tuesday, was preceded by six hours terrific bombardment. Then the infan- try came on from three sides along the road from Gercourt to Bethincourt. from Forges village and from tse slopes ot Hill 265.
 French officers estimate that the at tacking forces were not fewer than 20 900. Fifteen different battalions were identified. All day long the Germans fought to gain a footing in the i'm portant village of Gethincourt. which lies in hollow commanded by both sidea

The days events were accepted as con- firmation of recent reports that Villa disgruntled at Washington's attitude in favor of his rival, General Carranza, had determined to bring about intervention Ii possible and that this, rather than rob- hery. was the motive behind the massa- cre
 On Tuesday last Villa hanged three Americans. Yesterday, fugitive Mex ican, who said that to publish his name would mean his death, asserted that Villa addressed his men to the effect that the killing of Americans was jus tifiable because the United States was responsible for the wretched condition of the Mexican people. The ignorant peons received his words with cheers and cries of Viva Villa!'
 "The United States intends to swal- low Mexico,' Villa was quoted as saying. Let us do what we can to make it stick in their throats."
 Three troops of cavalry were posted on the boundary tonight. A battalion of in- fantry and squadron of the Eighth cav airy from Fort Bliss left Fl Paso late today to reinforce the troops here. With these forces Colonel Slocum said he could handle any further attack Villa, in des- peration, might decide to make.

 Two troops stationed at Gibsons ranch 15 miles west, did not get into the ac- tion. Three troops were in camp here, with an effective force of about 250 men, Informed of this and assured by his spies that certain aid would be given by some of the Mexican residents, Villa started his advance from the Boca Grande river late yesterday
 The first intimation of the approac oh came when Private Griffin, on sentry duty, saw a number of Mexicans around the quarters of Lieut. John P. Lucas. Griffin opened fire and at the cost of his life drew attention of the bandits for sufficient time to permit Lucas to reach camp and turn out his machine gun troop.
 The bodies of the Mexican slain were burned. Twenty-seven bodies were so disposed of today, while a number of the wounded were treated at the hospital Of the Thirteenth cavalry. Some of the Villa wounded were mere boys. Army officers, whose quarters were attacked, bore testimony that resident Mexicans of the town pointed out to the bandits the houses occupied by Americans and those sheltering Mexicans As result of this Colonel Slocum ordered troop to search every Mexican house and deprive every che of arms on pain of death if they were not voluntarily given up. There are about 800 Americans in Columbus and nearly as many Mexicans

Roumanias S entrance into the world-war will,
in the opinion Of many students Of international
affairs, prove an important factor in determining
the balance Of power and thus hasten the wars
ending. Although rather small nation, her
soldiers some SIX hundred thousand strong, are
considered by military experts througho the
world to be we'll trained and very well equipped.
Roumania is located in stragetic position,
and when her army get we'll under way may
prove grave menace to the Central Powers
allie, Bulgaria.
The grave effect upon the outcome Of the
war, suggested by Roumanias entrance, was
reflected in the Chicago wheat market on Mon
day last, when that cerial went down IL
points, an almost Unprecedented break Rou-
mania hopes to gain, should the balance Of
power rest with the Entente, all Of her national
ambitions
Rumors from reliable sources have, Of late,
limited very strongly Of Bulgarias intention Of
dsserting her Teutonic allies and joining with
the successful Russians, but the advent Of Rou-
mania on that side Of the quarrel will have a
tendency to drive her closer to the Teutons If
this be true, it is questionable what advantage
the Entente have secured by Roumania joining
with them.

That President Wilson is man well worthy
of the high office with which the people have
entrusted him and the universal esteem in which
he is held was, on last Tuesday, again made
-abundantly evident by the fearless manner in
which he presented the peoples cause. to the
joint session OF Congress which he convened for
the purpose Of submitting his proposals for pre-
venting an industrial war that would prove so
detrimental to the welfare Of the country His
stand on this question OF SO grave importance is
certainly marked evidence that he has at heart
the common good, and although neither the
railroad magnates nor the trainmen are likely to
enthuse over his program, the great mass Of peo-
pie, who are the bulwalk Of the country, cam
not fail to realize what splendid champion
they have looking to their welfare and who will
do equal and exact justice to both owners and
workers In the present threatened strike. The
railroads and the brotherhoods are mighty
forces, but neither should be permitted to die
tate to the public, upon whom both depend, to
the detriment Of that many as would suffer, be-
cause OF an nordnate desire to exercise an un-
duly remarkable amount Of stubbomness.
We cannot believe that Congress will long
hesitate to act for it is inconceivable that any
one with the welfare Of the people at heart
should be willing to see the country plunged
into 50 disasterous an industrial war at this time
Of so unprecedented prosperity. We have an
abiding confidence that they will see the matter
in the light the President has painted it and
will readily adopt the program with such minor
amendments as will insure an end to the menace
Of countrywide strikes.
The President has shown Congress splen-
did example Of political courage in. the straight
forward, fearless manner in which lie has, with
justice to both sides, presented tie case as it
stands and their constituents are looking TO them
10 stand with the President on this most
important question.
