port as soon as possible to the COM

DOUBTS GERMANY'S
BLOCKAD|NG ABILITY
Rear Admiral Degouy, Retired,
French Navy, Is Sure U. S.
Can Combat Submarines.
DISCUSSES COUNTER MOVES

By the Associated Press
PARIS. February Rear Admiral
Degouy, retired. of the French navy.
paid a tribute to the officers and men
of the American Navy in an. interview
today to correspondent of the Asso
ciated Press. Should GernaEy's new
policy said the admiral. bring the
United States into the European con-
f1ict American sailors may be depended
upon to give a good account of them
selves in fighting submarines which
are now on the other side of the At
lantic or that may get there"
Admiral Degouy has made a life study
of French naval strategy and tactics
with reference to Germany. and is. one
of the best authorities on that subject.
Some of his ideas. long rejected by the
French navy. are now gaining favor.
notably in regard to more, comprehen
sive action against submarine bases.
Spea king of the means adopted by the
allies against undersea attacks the adj
miral said: "Generaiities are only aa-
MISSILE in talking of the means of
defense and attack used by the allies
denied everything but surmises as to
how many German submarines have
been captured or sunk. My impression
is that your naval officers know all
about defensive and offensive measures.
and none are more capable of making
use of such knowledge. The ruthless
campaign announced by Germany will
make the deadliness of submarines more
certain, more lives will be lost and
something added to material losses. but
it cannot win the war. 1t will in fact,
have but mediocre influence on the
final issue.

Always Fruitful, He Says.

what is going on at sea now, of i'm
mense interest for the future is the en-
tire method of naval warfare that is be-
ing resorted to. 1t is the method long
known in naval strategy of operations
on the adversarys line of communica-
lions and is always fruitful when prose-
cuted with energy, perseverance and
suitable material"
Referring to counter measures Ad-
miral Degouy said Beside the means
already in use l consider it necessary
to adopt others and more comprehen-
sive. with the object of either destroy
ing or paralyzing the submarine bases.
The value of this opinion has long been
contested, but the British admiralty APP
pears to be coming around to it. The
North sea area that Great Britain has
now mined has been made a danger
zone for the precise purpose of par
alyzing the submarine bases in the Ger
man estuaries, not separ ately as might
have been done, but altogether. Anala-
gous measures will be necessary in the
sound to prevent access from the Kiel
canal into the North sea and the Baltic.
The Germans themselves realize the i'm
portance of this by mining the south
ern part of the sound to prevent Brit
ish submarines from gaining access to
the Baltic"

Calls Blockade Misnomer.

LAS for the announced blockade by
submarines of such an extent of. Goa st
it is misnomer. Two thousand sub
marines would not be equal to the task
of making the blockade effective in the
sense of the term as formerly accepted,
and I calculate that Germany has some
thing like zoo of these vessels. Only
part of these, for obvious reasons, can
at one time be in service. The German
government is quite aware of this and
has much less confidence in submarines
than the German people. 1t is the
people alone who expect great things
from them and who seem to have i'm
posed their sentiments upon the heads
of the government.
The entire German submarine cam
paign had a false start. Their feet was
too small at the outset for what they
tried to do. They have built during
the war more submarines than they
have lost, but the insufficient initial
basis of their underwater plans is an
insurmountable obstacle to it's success
strategicaily. Nevertheless. the 200
units they have are capable of doing a
great deal of harm, especially the
largest and newest types. | Judge that
there are thirty of the latter, which are
capable of operating on the high seas
with a wide range of action.

Gale Causes Low Tide.

The heavy northwest gale of yester-
day and last night has caused unusu-
ally low water in the river, and a high
water" this morning. it is stated, the
tidal level was hardly up to the usual
low-water mark. The river fats be-
tween this city and Alexandria had but
IA few inches of water over them, and
reports received from the creeks-tribu-
tary to the Potomac are that the shoal
places were blown almost dry. About
the harbor the shoal docks had little
water in them, and the vessels lying
there were on the bottom the greater
part of the time. AS soon as the wind
stops the tides will quickly return to
normal levels.

HENRI ROCHETTE GIVEN
TWO MONTHS IN PRISON
Notorious French Gambler Sentenced
for Failing to Obey Military
Law Requirement.

PARIS. February 2. $40 Ambient
Rochelle, the notorious French bucket
shop swindler, has been sentenced to
two months in prison by a court-mar-
tial for having failed to appear at
recruiting Office Immediately before
and after war was declared. The court
took into consideration the fact that
Rochelle had voluntarily enlisted and
had done military duty under an as
sumed name.
In Sensational Swindle.
Henri Rochelle was the principal fig
urc in one of the most sensational
swindling cases in the history of the
French courts. He was arrested in
1908. charged with having operated
bucket shop swindles involving a sum
of more than $4,000, 900. At his trial
it was asserted that some of the most
prominent men in France had been
either his dupes or his accomplices and
a parliamentary inquiry was made into
charges that Antoine Monis. former
premier, and Joseph Caillaux. former
minister of finance, were exerting their
influence to protect the promoter.
Rochelle disappeared while out on
bail and was next heard from in Mex
leo. where it was said he was well
coined by Francisco Madero, then presi-
dent. on account of valuable services
he was reported to have rendered the
Mexican executive

The Rochelle case was revived in

FOR BODIES
IN IcE-cOVERED RUINS
Hope Abandoned That Any One Is
Alive in Wrecked Chicago

CHICAGO, February 3.-Handicapped
by the coolest weather of the winter,
workmen today searched for bodies in

wrecked by an explosion early yester-
day. OF the seyentytwo persons known
to have been in the building at the
time of the explosion. presumably
caused by leaking gas. ten were known
to be dead and twenty were missing to-
day. Seven of tbe bodies recovered had
been positively identified, and the
others were believed to be those OF
Henry Spitzley. forty-five years old,
and his two nephews. Walter and
George spitzley. both young boys.
No Hope of Other Rescues.
Thirty hours after the explosion the
rescue workers abandoned hope that
additional persons might yet be alive.
Throughout the. night searchlights
played on the ruins and ambulances
were kept in waiting. AS rapidly as one
exhausted shift of rescue workers step
ped from the wreckage a fresh group,
.rmed with shovels, picks and axes,
Jumped to the vacated places.

Referendum on War Declaration.

Mr.. Bryan reused the audience to en-

ing for a referendum on the declara-

No nation has challenged the United
States, MIR. Bryan declared. but If any
nation should. this would be the an
swer, he said. the country should give:
900 people to guard. priceless ideals to
preserve. and we ' i'll not wal ON aith
YOU in a mire of blood to conform to

Another declaration of the speaker
thnt caused prolonged applause was:
God forbid that we should go to
war with nation that is not an enemy
and does not want war with u.s.
Il have confidence in our President
Mr. Bryan said. Never has the Presi-
dent bnen more anxious to do what is best

He asserted the Presidents step was

science of the world
Mr.. Bryan said he dssented from the
part of the Presidents address to the
Senate relating to the enforcement of
peace" but he preferred, he asserted, to
wait until the President presents his views
moro thoroughly on that point before
venturing to comment upon it.
THE President has presented to the
world platform on which it can build
it's future peace" lie said.
Mr.. BRYAN was applauded when he said
the President is a student Of history, and
he knows that the paths of history are
lined with the wrecks of empires built
on physical force" He added that the
philosophy that the peace of the world
can be kept by being armed to the teeth
has been exploded.

Moved Down With Machine Gums.

Regardless whether they were ghosts
or German the sentries knew that the
proper thing to do was to shoot and
there came a crackle of rifles all along
the line. One young Irish officer stood
up and let go with his revolver. Then
the machine guns chimed in and the
first wave of the attackers was break
ing when the second came over. Two
Germans managed to plunge into a
British trench, but they got out SO
quickly that they left behind them I'M
used can of dynamite, many grenades
and a rifle. One of the two died in
the British wire entanglements as he
was attempting to retreat. An officer
commanding a section of a trench un-
der attack reported today that While
some of his troopers had been under
fire for the first time he had had diff
Guilty in restraining them from pur-
suing the retreating ghosts"
An incident which shows that the
humane spirit has not vanished in this
war occurred recently, when some Ger
man prisoners appeared behind the Brit
ish lines with British gas macks slung
across their shoulders. Inquiry devel-
oped that the British army authorities
had ordered this precaution so that
prisoners may have the same protec-
ton from gas attack from their own
lines as their captors enjoy.
