FRENCH "TREACHERY.'
Germans Say Prisoners Took Up Arms
Again and Attacked.

Berlin, April 10, by wireless to Say
ville.-An explanation of II clause in Sat
urday's German official statement re-
garding the capture of Termlen hill on
the Nerdm front, by the Germans, IN
which it was said that the losses of the
French were very heavy, owing partly
to the treacherous behavior of some is
supplied by the Overseas New agency in
an item given out for publication, which
says:
at is reported from the front that the
storming of Termilen hill is considered
to have been a classical example of per-
feet cooperation between the infantry
and the artillery. Therefore the Ger
man losses were exceedingly small while
the French met with losses which We're
appalling.
"The French losses were further in
creased because French troops who had
been overrun by the German infantry
in its storm attack and who had dis
posed of their arms and raised their hands
in token of surrender afterwards took up
their arms again and attacked the Ger
mans from behind. These treacherous
troops were all killed in combat by en-
bittered German soldiers"

MORE TROOPS FOR Ell PAso.
Two Infantry Battalions Were Sent from
Fort Bliss.

Ell Paso, Tex, April l0.--Local off
eials in FL Paso made representations
yesterday to the military authorities and
two infantry battalions were sent from
Fort Bliss last night to act as reserves
to the patrols who are on guard every
night in the principal streets here. The
police officials said they fear trouble with
Mexcans in Jliarez
The one real basis for any apprehen-
sion here that is discoverable is the fact
that number of Villistas and other
representatives of the anti American fac
tion in Mexico are spreading the widest
reports among the poems and soldiers in
Juarez in the hope OF causing an out
break Juarez is seething with the weird
est stories of the hostile intentions of
the Americans and rumors of great vic
tories over the United States soldiers
won by Villa The Carranza officials
are doing their best to suppress these
stories.
That the alarmists are not receiving
much credence among the American ref
ugees here is evidenced by the fact that
a number of tne latter have already re-
turned to Mexico and others are prepar
ing to do so.
