REPRESENTATIVE
MAY LOSE HIS SEAT

Tallahassee, Fla, March est
has developed that determined fight
will be made on next Monday night
to prevent John Trammell, represen-
tative-elect from Calhoun county, be-
ing seated in the democratic caucus
of the house. Mr.. Trammell was
elected on an independent ticket
against the regular certified nominee
of the democratic party in that coun-
ty. The issue in that county was
much the same as that caused by the
recent gubernatorial contest in the
state. 1t was John Trammell who
alleged fraud in that county and
claimed that without fraud he would
have been the nominee in the primary.
So he entered the general election as
an independent and Won. Every nomi-
nee for county office except one was
defeated by an independent in the last
general election in Calhoun county.
Representative Amos Lewis, OF
jackson county, says: eff there are
more Independents in the house than
democrats, let the Independents elect
the speaker"

DeYelonments Not Hidden

Washington, March 28-It is learn
ed definitely the American govern
ment has no knowledge of any de-
velopment likely to come before con-
gress will convene which would
change the present attitude toward
Germany. The government is without
information whether Germany con-
templates any sort of peace move or
the abandonment of her ruthless sub
marine warfare The public knows
virtually as much as the government
regarding the present crisis.
Concerning German intrigues in the
United States, however, the govern
ment has much information that has
not been made public. President Will
son continued conferences with the
department today preparatory to
writing the address he will deliver
to congress. The administration is
said to be at present chiefly con-
cerned with the form of action to be
taken by congress recognizing that
Germany is making war on the Uni
ted States. Whether huge loan
should be offered the allies or the
army should be sent abroad are re-
garded as questions which will confuse
the present issue if pressed to a de-
cision now. Senator Hastings, after
a conference with the president, said
he favored further action than armed
neutrality.

FURIOUS DRIVE
.OF FRENCH ON
GERMAN ARMY
Invaders Have Been Driven
From Large Section
of Territory.
TEUTONS MAKING
DESPERATE STAND
British Army in North Also
| Report Very Satisfac-
tory Progress.
MAKING
DESPERATE STAND
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

The southern wing of the retreat
ing German army is slowly recoiling
along ten mile front under the
furious onslaughts of the French. The
first section of great CoucySt. Co
balm forests has been completely
cleared of the invaders and General
Nivelle's troops are now face to face
with the last formidable natural bar
rier which lies between them and
Loan-the plateau of st. Gobain.
This densely wooded plateau lies be-
tween the Disc and the Ailette and
is about 10000 acres in extent, ris-
ing from about 80 to 200 feet in
height. No railways or high roads
traverse it, but an important railroad
sweeps around its southern border
and runs north to Chauny. This road
is in the hands of the French up to
within about three miles of Amy,
which is ten miles west of Laon. To
the north the French are about two
miles from the town of st. Gobain
center of the most famous glass fac
tories in Europe. st. Gobain is thir-
teen miles northwest of Laon.
No change has taken place in the
neighborhood of ST. Quentin, where
the Germans are still making des-
perate efforts to wrest from the
French the Essigny Benay plateau
undisputed possession of which will,
according to military critics, render
the fall of the city inevitable. Furth
err north the British have made some
slight progress but no material change
in the situation has taken place. Bad
Weather is reported to have seriously
interfered with operations on this por-
ton of the front.
Sporadic fighting has occurred in
several of the other war theaters, but
nothing to indicate the commencement
of major operations.
Apparently the Russians have no
need to apprehend a German drive on
the northern front, towards Petro-
grad in the immediate future. Warn
ings that such an attack was i'm
pending were recently issued in the
Russian capital, based on German
concentrations along this front, and
it had been thought that Berlin might
take advantage of the possible disor-
ganization of the Russians, due to the
recent radical change in the form of
government, and press an offensive.
The spring thaw has now set in along
the whole front, however, and opera
tions on large scale will be impossi-
BILE there for some weeks.
Meanwhile, the other fields where
the expected big Teutonic drive may
be inaugurated are bing scanned. At
tention is particularly attracted to the
Austro-Italian front. An attack of
the heaviest character here has been
limited and the probability of its TAX
ing place is being widely discussed
in Rome. Some consideration in tsTs
connection is being given points on the
Franco Belgian front outside the zone
of the great retreat. The Germans
for instance, are displaying notable
activity in the Champagne region and
today Berlin reports the capture of
French trenches south of Ripont, in
this district.
