Belgium. the British guns were active.
At La Bassee, south Of the Belgian Dor
der, there was another British lombard
ment.
This combined activity OF Belgians

fronts. Many British trench raids have
also been made In the northern region
recently.

The French were active again on the
81. Mihiel salient. making one OF the
rarely announced "rench raids: Berlin
announces. Paris has been silent re-
| garding the st. Mihiel front. Berlin
also announces the repulse OF a French
surprise attack on st. Pierre Vast wood,
| which Paris does not mention. In fact.
the French statement tonight says there
is nothing to report" The Belgian
statement tonight follows:
In the afternoon a reciprocal bonn
bardment occurred in the region OF
Dixmude. Tho Belgian batteries d.
rected with success a destructive hre
against he enemy organisations. The
artillery activity was particularly In
tense in the direction Of Steenstraete
and Boes!nghe.
To-night's British statement reads:
To-day our artillery dispersed enemy
infantry west of Puisieux and bonn
barded enemy trenches In tho Ypres
area.
British Airmen Busy.
Yesterday. in spite Of Indifferent
weather. our airplanes cooperated sue
cessfully with our artillery and also
bombed several points OF military i'm
portance. Two Of our machlnes are
missing.

afternoon, follows:
Our artillery was active last night
In the neighborhood Of La Bassee.
The afternoon statement Of the French
War Office follows:
There has been the customary a n
nonading at various points on the
Somme front and in the sectors of
Douaumont and Vaux. The night
passed quietly on the remainder OF
the front.
A group of French aviators last
night ~bombarded the aviation fields
at Guizancourt and Matigny. The
missiles dropped reached their mark.

lows:

precht: In the Somme sector there
was only minor artillery firms yes

situation in Germany so far as It may
affect the interests Of the United States
and the policies Of the Government was
discussed at length to-day by Ambassa-
dor Gerard and Secretary Lansing. The
Ambassador conferred with the Secre-
tary Of State for moro than an hour.
during which time. II Is understood. the
entire situation in Berlin was reviewed
with reference to the troublesome ques.
fions pending between the two Govern
ments.
From the point Of view Of tho United
States the recent changes in the German
Foreign Office are especially favorable.
DR.. Alfred Zimmerman. the new Secre-
tary for Foreign Affairs. whose appoint
ment represents a victory for the Liberal
party and generally would have been re-
garded as impossible a few years ago.
is a close friend OF Ambassador Gerard
and has been a frequent visitor to the
embassy. DIR. william Won Stumm, the
Under Secretary. who succeeded DIR.
Zimmerman. Is also on very friendly
terms with the embassy officials. 1t is
not regarded as probable that the Ger
man Government will adopt any drastic
policy likely to a~ntagonize tho United
states without the greatest reluctance
and careful consideration Of the Ameri-
can viewpoint.
Submarine Policy Hopeful.
OF greater consequence to ths United
States would be a change OF policy on
the part of the German Government re-
A. ~A
rines. It Is generally known that there
is n strong demand In Germany for the
resumption Of submarine warfare. Up
TO the present time. however. the Gov
eminent has been able to set Itself
against II.
In discussing at the State Department
during the day the latest reports Of a
possibility OF a new crisis over subma-
rine warfare Secretary Lansing reite-
rated his belief that there "a nc basis
for the agitation. II was also sug-
gested that Mr.. Lansing outlined fully
to Mr.. Gerard the attitude OF this Gov
eminent toward the deportation OF Bel
gians for labor in Germany.
These and other questions have been
discussed by Ambassador Gerard ard
Secretary Lansing since the fo-rncr ar.
rived in the United States. 1t IL probable
that the Ambassador will see the Presi-
utll uloIi " " hiidi
before leaving for New York in the
afternoon.
Luncheon Guest Of BernstorR.
After his conference with Secretary
Lansing Mr.. Gerard called upon Coun-
scllor Polk and various bureau chiefs
~ the State Department. He and Mrs.
Gerard were the guests Of honor at a
luncheon given by the German Ambas-
sador and Countess Won Bernstorff at
the embassy and were entertained at
dinner tonight by the Secretary Of
State and Mrs. Lansing. Other guests
nj the dinner were the diplomatic rep
re~sentatives accredited to countries
with which Germany is not at war. One
exception was Baron Zweidinek. the
Austrian charge d'afYaires. who is pre-
vented from attending social functions
during the period OF mourning following
the death OF Emperor Francis Joseph.

Cutters Return After Work.

Cutters Return After Work.
When the work has been finished the
cutters return to their trench and report
tina all Is ready. Now the time has
come for the raid. The artillery is in
formed to stand by. The machine guns
are placed in position, covering certain
points on the TANKS OF the point OF at
tack.
The raiders. whose number depends on
the scope Of the raid. but which usually
Is not large, climb their own parapets.
Silently they creep forward, They divide.
often into three parties, right. left and
centre. Guided by the wire cutters they
make for the pathway through the en-
tanglement.
Each has a specific duty to perform.
Some are bayonet men. others are bomb
ers. Some are told on to take prisoners
and pass them back. A few may be de-
tailed to proceed up the enemy communi.
cation trench to bomb reenforcements.
Others are given the specific task OF
wrecking a machine gun emplacement.
The ideal raid IL the one which the
enemy does not suspect until with a
terrifying yell the raiders throw them
selves into tho enemy front line trench.
That happens sometimes, but often 1t
doesn't. Behind the raiders II a cover
ing party, ready to lend assistance. to
receive prisoners and to look after
wounded.
An officer watches closely as the raid
ers disa IN the darkness. awaiting
tho moment OF attack or OF discovery.
Once to the enemy trench no time Is lost
Bombs are hurled in profusion into the
trench, followed almost at once by men
with bayonets.
At the instant OF action the officer In
charge gives the signal to the artillery
behind. Shells begin to fly. the guns be-
hind concentrating on the enemy's sup
port and communication trenches to pre-
vent reenforcements coming up. Tho
machine guns on both sides open up and
rife fire rattles up and down the line.
Flares Lixht Battlefield.
The British are careful not to fire on
the point OF attack for fear OF hitting
their own men. Lights fare from the
, German trenches and hang In the sky,
illuminating the field and revealing the
position OF the raiders.
In the enemy trench tho raiders set
about devastation. Soldiers who sur
render are pushed up over the parapets
into the hands of waiting men and are
speedily passed back. II they fail to
move quickly enough. or II they impede
operations they are killed. Men who re-
sist are likewise killed.
Some OF the raiders pass back through
the communication trench. bombing all
| the time, others go after tho machine
guns. wrccking them II capture IL i'm
possible and killing all the machine gun
ners they can reach.
1t IL all over In a few minutes, for
the success Of the raid Is its speed.
The raiders are often not In tho trenches

WAR WOULD SEND
INTEREST RATES UP
Rise Bound to Come Soon Because
of Impending Loans 20 Belliger-
ents.

In the opinion of financiers money
rates are certain to go higher in the
near future because of the increas-
ing demand In all lines of industry
and trade, supplementing the abnor-
NAL demands of the countries at war.
II is regarded as foregone conclu+
sion that Great Britain, France and
Russia will soon seek additional
large loans in the United States. on
account OF the imminent war of this
country with Mexico, the belief Is
gaining that the United States will
float large issue of bonds for war
purposes Naturally, II is reasoned,
the tremendous borrowing viii adj
vance interest rates all around and
the effect will be felt locally. result
ing in higher prices for prime se-
curities
or great significance that Great
Britain is preparing to float another
huge loan is the action of that gov
ernment in levying an income tax of
10 per cent on American and other
foreign securities. This has been
done to force the turning over to the
government of such securities as So
curity for proposed new loan. Brit
ish holders OF such securities who
turn their investments over to the
government on a loan basis are ex-
empted from the heavy tax.
