SECRECY SHROUDS ARMY MANEU
VERS AT PANAMA
CANAL.

Panama, April l7.-Army maneu-
vers on an extensive scale will be un-
dertaken this week as part of the an
nual spring training of the American
troops on the isthmus. 1t is under
stood that virtually all the mobile
troops, probably numbering 5000,
will participate.
Problems involving the defense of
the Pacific entrance to the canal will
be undertaken. The war games will
be in direct charge of Brigadier Gen.
eral Clarence F. Edwards, commander
OF the canal zone, who will have with
him a large staff. Tons of supplies
have already been transported to the
vicinity of Chorrera, on the west side
of the canal, where the most impor-
tant features of the games will be
worked out
Much secrecy is maintained as re-
CARDS the real object of the maneu-
vers. No details have been announced
and precautions are being taken to
prevent them becoming public. 1t is
understood that the Pacific entrance
to the canal was chosen for the opera
tions because it is more accessible, ow-
ing to lack of rail transportation due
to the freight congestion on the
isthmus.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS AGAIN SIZ.
ZLING.


Washington, April 17.--Conference
between Senate and House leaders of
the Foreign Relations Committees and
White House officials on international
affairs are expected TO be held this
week.
Leaders in both parties declared
that the silence in Congress during the
past week is by no means an indi-
cation that there is no interest in for
eign affairs. In fact, the quiet is
ominous, indicating unusual interest
and concern, particularly with regard
to the submarine issue and the prob
able action to be taken by the admin
istration regarding it..
The same is true of the Mexican
question, although Congress already
understands and, so far, the majority
approve, the determination of the
Chief Executive to keep American
troops on the trail in Mexico while
negotiations are undertaken with Car
rama regarding his suggestion for
their withdrawal from Mexican terri
tory.
Republicans pretty generally oppose
withdrawing the troops at this time,
and some Democrats are against re-
calling the soldiers until there is some
more definite information regarding
the fate of villa
Congress is going ahead rapidly on
the legislative program, with its work
ing machinery unimpeded by excite
ment over international affairs.
Although there has been more tense
anxiety regarding the German and
Mexican situations in the last week
than at any time since the session be-
gan, members of both houses have
been keeping strictly to the business
of legislation and little time has been
wasted in prolonged discussions of d.
plomatic relations such as character
tied the sessions earlier in the year.

100000 MEN LOST IN THE yERDUN
CAMPAIGN.

The most gigantic conflict in the
history of the world, the battle of
verdun, has entered upon its ninth
week. 1t is in many respects without
precedent The enormous scale of the
German preparations and execution of
the attack, the unparalleled concen-
tration of artillery and the sustained
ferocity of the fighting mark the
battle as one OF the greatest effors
OF the war.
Verdun has been rated as one of the
strongest fortresses of Europe, a cor
ner stone of the French defenses
against Germany. The evolution of
military tactics during the war, how
ever, and particularly the employment
by the Germans of long-range how
tiers capable Of reducing the greatest
forts, have done much to change the
character of the Verdun campaign as
compared with the earlier conceptions
of what such a struggle might be.
Before the battle opened the French
partly dlsmantled their forts around
verdun and here. as elsewhere, on the
various fronts, chief reliance for re-
sistance was placed on an elaborate
system of trenches.
In no previous battle were the
losses so high as those which have
been estimated in the fighting around
Verdun. These estimates, however,
can not be regarded as conclusive evil
dence, for neither Germany nor France
has announced its own casualties.
The French war Office has declared
the Germans have lost 100000 in kill
ed, wounded and captured. The Ger
mans state semi-ofIlcially that the
French casualties number 100000 kill
ed and wounded, and that $4,000 I'M
wounded French prisoners have been
taken. II correct, nearly 100000 men
have been eliminated as fighting units

HELL IN CITY LIMITS.
New York Worldly


The following story about New York
was told yesterday by Edward F.
Trefz, of the Chamber of Commerce Of
the United States, at the Hotel Astor.
Recently" he said, "a clergyman
living just outside Minneapolis phoned
urgently to a bookstore in that city
for a copy of Seekers After God"
al haven't got copy in stock the
bookseller phoned back. but I'll tele-
graph to Chicago and if they haven't
go it I'll have them try to get it from
lew York for you
"A little later the bookseller re-
ceived a wire from Chicago as fol-
lows:
"'No seekers after God in New York
or Chicago. Try Philadelphia.
After the laughter had died down
the speaker told this one on Chicago:
Il was out west, at a garment man.
ufacturers' convention, and one OF
them, a friend of mine, went. down
stairs and phoned a friend out in the
country. He talked an unconscious
ably long time
"'How much?' he asked the phone
operator
lone dollar, please, she said.
lone dollar!' he cried Why, in
Chicago | could telephone to hell anC
back for 10 cents
"'Why, certainly; but that is withir
the city limits there she retorted."

Because of the large number OF
