CAPTAIN HINTS LAPLAND
lust MISSED DISASTER
Liner Reaches Port After Zig
tagging Through War Zone.

After being conveyed BY = British
destroyer until well clear OF the Ing
fish coast, the Anchor liner Lapland az
rived here Yesterday from Liverpool.
The ship steered a zigzag course for
nearly Il day, and cruisers we're seen
occasionally not far of, signalling TO
the liners convoy.
The Lapland sailed on February 26.
and was held in the Channel day
before putting to sea. Although the
Passengers were not particularly
alarmed at the extraordinary precau-
tons taken 20 avoid submarines, one

he had spent Sunday. Learning that the
passengers had spent the day quietly
on deck. the captain said:
"1f YOU had known what J knew you
would have been on deck with lite-pre-

He would make no further explans-
lions. and when questioned yesterday
refused to answer all questions as TO
how he took his ship out OF the danger
zone.
The Lapland struck a heavy storm
on Saturday night. For three hours
the wind had a velocity OF nearly nine
tv miles an hour, and raised sea so
heavy that many Of the passengers
were terrified.

GERMANS SHIFT
ATTACK TO WEST
Continued from page |

OF General Petain's preparedness either
for defence or quick offence.
The conviction regarding Nerdun is
that. although the Germans may per
sist in their offensive. their power OF
attack has been weakened. as IL is con-
sidered that it will be difficult for
them to get the same dash out OF troops
who have lost fights against the French
in future attacks. The Germans, there
fore. have put great number OF in
fantrymen successfully into the action
and now appear 10 be replacing their
divisions.
The weather continues unfsvorable.
The rain and snow keep the earth soft
where il has not already turned into
marsh. Automobiles near the front look
like moving blocks Of mud. The roads
back Of the French line. cons dering the
weather and the use 10 which they are
being put. are good. Twenty thousand
automobiles daily pass over one thor
oughfare behind the line, moving in
opposite directions. in two almost con
tiruous lines.
In the Woevre fighting it is chiefly
the French artillery which - invo lived.
The French hold the outskirts of the
village OF Mauheulles firmly and have
stopped all attempts Of the Germans
10 debouch in that direction.
In military and political circles I've
" satisfaction is expressed regarding
the situation. and the opinion now
begins 20 prevail that the great efforts
of the Germans will be more easily
disposed Of than was at first expected.
Having failed to make any impress
sion on the Douaumont position and
on Vaux 20 its right. the German Cen
ersl STAFF determined 10 smash the
French left on the Vacherauviile
Wood Cote du Poivre position. With
out regard 10 cost. the best troops
were hurled forward. but with no more
success than elsewhere. Pomeranlans
and what was left Of the Bra7denburg-
ers dashed themselves vainly against
the French. who stood as immovabie
as rock wall >,
As at Naux, the Germans finally ifli
back, leaving heaps Of dead on the
ground. The French infantry, sup
ported BY their form dable artillery,
which will never henceforth lack am
munition, showed themselves able 10
resist every onslaught.
On the left bank OF the Mouse ar
tillery on both sides Numbered all Gay
long. The French infantry in that
section had little to do. but il remains
there ready for any eventuality, though
the military experts believe II is ex-
tremely doubtful that the Germans
will attempt TO storm the Mort Homme
key position. for 70 do so they must
denlov over \ plain a mile wide under
cross fire from the heights around.
