R|0T|NG IN ATHENS
BY vEN|ZEL0S
AFTER ASSUMING OFFENSIVE,
GEN. JOFFRE NOW HOLDS
INFANTRY IN CHECK.

LONDON, April 17.-After tempo
rarily assuming the aggressive in the
Verdun battle, launching attacks in
the Douaumont-VauX region, which
are believed to have gained them some
ground, the French yesterday and last
night held their infantry in check.
Neither was there any move by the
German infantry. according to the
Paris bulletin
Apparently a new movement of
some importance is preparing west
of the Meuse. Heavy bombardment of
the French positions in the Avocourt
region and along the line for some
distance northeast, including the
Dead Mans hill sector, has been
mentioned in several recent official
statements by the French war office
and similar artillery activity is again
recorded today.
Although Rome has reported heavy
fighting on the Austro-Italan front,
with successes for the Italians, the
current headquarters statements from
Vienna mentions only small engage
ments and records no changes of ter
ritory.
Riotous demonstrations occurred in
Athens when an attempt was made of
former Premier Venizelos, supporter
of the entente cause. One report says
several shots were fired and that a
number of the former premiers fol-
lowers were arrested. The Norwegian
ship Glendoon, of 1913 tons, and the
British steamer, Harrovian, and 4,309
tions, have been sunk, the former by
gun fire.

day. is very high compliment to him.
He was born in Brunswick February
29, 1880, and was educated in the pub
lie schools of the city. In 1899 he was
appointed clerk of the ordinary and he
served in that position until the death
of his father, January II, 1912. With
his service as clerk and as ordinary,
Judge Dart has been in the office for
a period of II years and is thus we'll
posted on the various and important
duties of the probate office in Glynn
county
Prior. to his election as ordinary,
he had been admitted to the bar and
had grown to be an attorney. of ability
when the people called him to his
present office. Since that time he has
not practiced law, although he has a
fondness for his chosen profession.
Judge Dart is justly popular with
the people of the county and he appre-
ciates their kindness of the past and
hopes to merit their confidence in the
future.

DOUBT GROWS
AS To VILLAS
BEING KILLED
BODY FAILS TO TURN UP AT
CHIHUAHUA AT TIME STAT
ED THAT 1T WOULD-CAR-
RAMA TROOPS ATTACK.

WASHINGTON, April 17.-As the
hours pass without confirmation of
the story of the finding of the body
of Francisco Villa. Washington grows
more doubtful.
Villas body was to have reached
Chihuahua City by special train some
time last night. but American Consul
Letcher has not even forwarded the
rumors as to Villas death, Which
must be circulating there.
The Mexican embassy here had no
additional information. It's last re-
port from Consul Garcia at Ell Paso
said he was seeking confirmation
state and war department officials
refused to comment today on General
Pershing's report of the Parral fight,
which is much different from the
version transmitted by General Car
rama to support his suggestion that
American troops be withdrawn. The
American report shows Carranza
troops not only joined in the attack
upon the little detachment of Amer-
cans, but followed them several miles
as they withdrew to avoid a clash.
The majority of the Mexcans killed
are reported by General Pershing to
have been Carranza soldiers, one of
whom was an officer.
1t was indicated at the state de-
partment that further details would
be sought from American officers be-
fore reply would be sent to General
Carrahza. Secretary Lansing planned
originally to deal with the Parral in
cident as a separate question, not i'm
the reply TO the note suggesting the
recall of the American expedition.
The reply to the Carranza proposal
for withdrawal was still In preparation
today II VIII outline the terms un-
der which the United States will dis
cuss the withdrawal of its forces and
until report of Villas death has been
confirmed no change in the program
will be made.
1t was reasserted today that
should the body be identified as that
of Villa, the expedition would come
out OF Mexico at once. No instruc-
tions have yet been sent to Consul
Letcher or General Pershing. how
ever, as to the Identification to be re-
quired, None will go forward until
officials transmit some report.

Of THE j. s. ON
SUSSEX SENT
MORE INSTRUCTIONS TO Won

ED TO FORM ONLY LINK IN
THE EVIDENCE.

WASHINGTON, April 17.-An-
nouncement was made at the White
House today that President Wilson
had practically completed considera-
ton of the forthcoming eommunica-
ton to Germany and it was indicated
that it probably will go forward to
Berlin late today or in day or two
President Wilson in frequent con-
sultation with Secretary Lansing,
worked practically all day yesterday
on the communication in which Ger
many will be called to account for the
numerous recent attacks upon mer-
chant ships with Americans aboard.
The document is designed as the final
word of the United States on the sub
ject.
Additional instructions from the
German government to Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador,
were awaited today Unofficial ad-
vices said that such instructions had
been sent from Berlin
No report had reached the state
department early today from Ambas-
sador Gerard regarding a conference
he is reported to have had with Of
ficials of the Berlin foreign office.
1t was reiterated that the Sussex
case would form only a link in the
chain of evidence the United States
will present to Germany to show
that her promises have not been fol
lowed.
The document was characterized
today as being very firm in tone. Of
ficials believe that only a prompt ac-
quiescence by Germany in the posi-
tion taken by the United States can
prevent break of diplomatic rela-
tions.

the broad grounds of humanity and
for the reason that many of these

The state department ,today re-
ceived a cable from Ambassador Ge-
rard at Berlin which it was said au-
thoritatively was devoted entirely to
editorial expressions from the Ger

In all sorts Of weather, while the days
