ENGLAND IN GRIP OF WORST STORM
 FOR MANY YEARS
Disorganized All Over Country-Details of Disaster and Devastation Come in From
 All Points

London, March 29.-Great Britain, dur ing the past IS hours, has experienced the worst hurricane and blizzard in the recol-
 Details of devasta ton and disaster are coming into London from various sources, hut communication is too disorganized for any complete summary of the dam age done by the elements.
 Rivers are at flood and railway trains have been held up for hours ill the drift ed snow; houses have been unroofed and trees and telegraph poles blown down this is the oft-repeated story from many parts of the country, particularly the northern counties and Wales.
 The greatest fury of the blizzard ap- pears to have been expended in the mid lands. The most remarkable feature of the weather in London was the rapidity of it's changes-brilliant sunshine, bitter cold winds from various quarters and blizzards of hail and snow which were followed almost immediately by a pelting rain.
 London this morning Is covered with the worst sIusii in inany years. Liverpool and Birmingham experienced even more severe weather than London. Birmingham was cut off from communi- cation with 50 nearby towns.
 The casualties reported thus far have been remarkably few, consisting of only two deaths and about a score of persons seriously injured.

RUSSIAN LOSSES
 ARE PUT AT S0,000
Official Statement Says That Slavs Lost 5000 Men in One Attack. Cost Germans Two

Berlin. March 2S.-(By wireless to Tuck ton.)-Russian casualties in the present offensive against Field Marshal Von Hin- denburg's armies are estimated in an Overseas News agency statement today to have been not less than so,0o0 along the 75-mile front where engagements have been in progress.
 The statement says:
 ''The fruitless attacks of the Russians, in which 50 of their divisions have partici- pated, against Field Marshal Won Hinden- burg's front, are still continuing. The Russian casualties so far are estimated to have been not less than S0,Oo0 on a front of 120 kilometers.
 "On March IS, seven Russian regiments attacked a German cavalry brigade In this fighting the Russians lost about 5000 men, while the Germans lost two killed ard 50 wounded. Later on one cavalry de- tachment counter-attacked and captured 160 Russians.
 The German positions are so excellently fortified and provided with such a num- Der of machine guns and cannon that it is considered the Russian attacks are doomed to failure. The German lines have not heen shaken

PRESIDENT WILSON URGES ACTION ON
 THE SHIPPING BILL
Writes Letter to Leader kitchin in House Advocating Consideration of Shipping Bill and Measure for
 Probe of the Railways

Washington, March 2S.-Presdent Will son wrote to Democratic Leader Kitchn of the House today urging consideration of the shipping bill and the resolution for 1 the investigation of the conditions of rail- way transportation and legislation. The railroad resolution was not included in the legislative programme laid before the democratic caucus last week. says:
 Tn considering the programme of the session there are two matters which seem to me to stand out more prominently than the rest as matters in which time presses, even though they should not be deemed to take precedence in intrinsic impor- tance.
 Tt would seem as if the whole move ment of our trade and industry waited on the satisfactory solutions of our problems of transportation.
 That is the reason why it seems to me that the shipping bill should be pressed to an early passage and I write today to express the hope that the Senate joint resolution, No. 60 for the inquiry of the conditions of transportation by railroad, may find an early opening in the business of the House for it's consideration.
 did not put this on the list of legis- lation which I suggested because it did not in my mind fall under the head of legislation at all, but only of incidental action for the purpose of laying the groundwork for future legislation to an- other session of the Congress.
 The railways of the country are be- coming more and more the key to it's in dustrial success, and it seems to me of capital importance that we should lay a new groundwork of actual facts for the necessary future regulation I know that we all want to be absolutely fair to the railroads, and it seems to me that the proposed investigation is the first step to- ward the fulfillment of that desire.
 T hope you will agree with me that this important matter can be disposed of without putting any spoke in the wheels that we are now trying to make go around in the matter of legislation

DEBATE ON ARMY
 BILL IN SENATE
Measure Is Unfinished Business and Consideration of It Will Begin To-
 day-Chamberlain to Open

Washington, March 2S.-The first of the national defense measures got be- fore the Senate for general debate late today when the army reorganization bill was made the unfinished business. Debate on the bill, reported as sub stitute for the army measure passed by the House, will begin tomorrow.
 Senator Chamberlain. chairman of the military committee, will open rebate on the bill with detailed explanation of its provisions. There are some fea- lures of the House bill. particularly those relating to the militia, that may be incorporated in the Senate measure before a vote is reached, in the opin- ion of some of the democratic leaders. Under the Chamberlain bill the au- |thorized peace strength of the regular army would be about 174,7S9 men, an Approximate increase of 75,0oO over tho present peace strength and of 10000 over the total proposed in the House 1 bill. Provision also is made for fed eral volunteer force with a maximum strength of 260,00o and federalized National Guard of 2S0.00o men.
 Administration leaders will expedite the passage of the measure as much as possible and hope that vote can be
 reached within few weeks.

 tionary Force, Colonia Dublau. Chihua-
 hua March 2s.-By Wireless to Colum-
 bus. N M.)-Preparations for closing in
 on Francisco Villa in quick cavalry
 drive were being pushed forward rapidly

ALLIED CONFERENCE
 AT PARIS IS OVER
Solidarity of Entente Powers Is Re- affirmed-Steps Taken to Keep Down Freight Cost

Paris, March 2S-The conference of the entente allies, which ended today, adopted the following resolutions just prior to adjournment:
 "The representatives of the allied governments, in conference at Paris March 27 and 2s, 1916, affirm the com plete community of views and solidar- ity of the allies. They confirm all tho measures taken to realize unity of ac- tion on unity of front
 They understand by that, at the same time, unity of military action, as- sured by the entente concluded between the general staffs, unity of economic action, the organization of which the present conference has regulated, and unity of diplomatic action, which is guaranteed by their unshaken will to continue the struggle to victory for the common cause.
 'The allied governments decided to put into practice in the economic do, main their solidarity of views and in conference, which is to be held short iy dl diiS, to plopoSe Ioi tHSiu op- propriate measures for the realization of this solidarity.
 with view to strengthen, co-ordi- nate and unify the diplomatic action to be exercised to prevent the revic- tualing of the enemy, the conference has decided to establish at Paris per- manent committee in which all the al- lies will be represented.
 The conference has decided: First, to continue the organization, already begun, at London, of an international central bureau of freights; second, to proceed in common, and with the brief est delay, to seek practical means to apportion equitably between the al lied nations the charges for maritime transportation and check the rise i'll freight rates"
 Never perhaps, have deliberations so important had so little written about them. Thirty-seven persons took part, vet the proceedings went forward with out the least hitch.
 The conference separated into groups according to the questions to be deter mined, this process facilitating the reach ing of common understandings.
 The decisions of the conference have the force of the decisions of the respective governments, because each. with the ex- ception of Russia, was represented by it's principal ministers and generals

Successive Waves Launched
 Against French From Avo- court to BethincOurt
ASSAULT REFUSED
 WITH HEAVY LOSSES
British Retain Ground Taken by Storm in St. Eloi Sector-Saloniki Raided by German Aircraft.
 Two Steamers Sunk

Another determined attempt by the Germans to break through the French lines northwest of ver1un has resulted in failure, and with heavy losses to the Germans.
 After days of intense artillery prepara- ton for another effort to lessen the six miles intervening between them and the Paris-verdun railway and the nine miles still between them and Verdun, the Ger mans launched a great infantry attack on the ucourt-Bethincourt sector In successive waves the Germans were thrown into the fray. but all of their attempts were put down by the curtain of fire of the French guns and fire of the French infantry.
 There still is an intermittent bomba rd- ment going on northeast of vertlun and in the Woevre region the French have been smelling German positions. In the Argonne they are giving the German lines no rest, while in the Vosges the artillery action has been marked on both sides.
 On the British front in the St Eloi sec- tor the Germans opened a heavy artillery fire on the British forces. holding the ground gained by them Monday. The British artillery replied effectively, and, according to the British official state ment, these positions are still in the hands of the British.
 In the Postavy region of the Russian front Berlin reports that the onslaughts of the Russians against the German lines have been withstood and that the att tacking forces have suffered heavy casualties. A semi-official dispatch from Berlin says the Russians have attacked in their new offensive with 60 divisions over front of 12O kilometres and that their losses have not been less than 5000 men.
