ANOTHER WARNING
GIVEN TO SHIPPING
IN PACIFIC OCEAN
Captain Gilmer Intimates
German U-boats Are Now
Operating Off Western
Coast Of Mexico.

San Francisco. April 13.-New warn
ing of the presence of German subma-
rines in the Pacific was issued to ship
ping men today by Captain w. w. Gill
mer, commanding the Twelfth United
States naval district. The second
warning set the location of the report
ed submarines more definitely, as
sorting they have been seen near the
Mexican coast.
Reports from reliable sources
which appear credible, indicate that
German submarines are in the Pa
cific, probably off the Mexican coast,
said Gilmer.
1t Is understood that the second
warning was issued because steam
ship men generally did not seriously
heed the first warning of yesterday
Observers who are familiar with nav
igation of the Pacific waters believe
the U-boats, If they prove really to
be in the Pacific, are bound for the
northern route from Seattle and Van
couver to Vladivostock, over which
huge shipments of munitions have been
sent to Russia.
TO INVESTIGATE REPORTS.
Captain Gilmer said he has not yet
been able to run down all the reports
received, but that none will be over
looked.
People tell me it is not lilSely-it rs
almost impossible-that German sub
marines could have reached the Pa
cific," said Gilmer, but l say nothing
is impossible in these days. The tre-
mendous cruising radius of the new
U-boats makes it easily possible that
they might have gone around the
horn"
Gilmer would not reveal any of the
sources of his information, but it is
understood that a certain American
manufacturing company furnished it

With the British Armies
Afield, April 13.-Another
mile of the Hindenburg line
was captured by British
forces today. The positions
lay southeast of the Cojeul
river. Their possession by
General Haig's troops more
and more threatens the piv-
otal point of the German line
around Arras.
Simultaneous with this advance, an
entire salient two. miles in width and
nearly a mile in depth, in which the
particular trench was located, came
into the hands Of the British.
Further to the south around Metz,
the British averaged a mile gain on
front Of approximately five miles,
including Gonzeaucourt in their sweep.
Canadian troops were steadily ad-
vancing from Vimy ridge today. They
occupied trenches to the east of the
forest on the eastern slope of the
ridge.
Desperation stalks behind the Ger
man lines. The German army chiefs,
astonished at the tremendous uncease-
ing strength of the British smash, are
using prisoners of war to dig trenches,
thus relieving a few more German
fighters. while the word has gone out
for endorsements. While awaiting
those reinforcements the enemy is US
ing non fighting auxiliaries of the
army to fill up depleted ranks of its
fighting regiments.
EVERY AVAILABLE MAN USED
Scores of captured trench defend
ers today were transport drivers and
assistants, chauffers, bandsmen and
other auxiliary service men. They
had been pressed into service around
Fampoux and Hyderabad redoubt,
where the British then smashed hard
est in the hurried call for every avail
able man to Withstand the British
blows.
One other bit Of desperation was in
the repeated-and fruitless-attempts
by German airman to fly over the
British lines and learn where Haig's
mighty blows might next be executed.
A swarm of British airmen patrolled
the air. Fantastic battles occurred
almost hourly today as the German
flyers were literally swept out of the
sky
COMPLAINTS BY BAVARIANS.
Among prisoners taken today were
many Bavarians. They were bitterly
denunciatory of the German leaders.
The BaVarians claimed they had been
hurried to the Arras secor to relieve
the Saxons-and had not been told OF
what they would have to face. The
Bavarians insisted 1t always fell to
their lot to do the disagreeable tasks
of fighting.
