The next two fell a hun dred feet beyond in a five marquee ward, in which there were many pa tients, and the last struck the recep- tion tent.
 Overhead there was no sound. The German aviator flew too high to be heard but he left his identity behind him not only in the bombs he dropped but in the derisive handful of pfen- nings he scattered upon the hospital as he whirled away. number of these were found when light came.
 Although the exploding bombs ere ated horror in the hospital there was not the smallest sign of panic and the work of discovering the wounded and treating them was immediately begun. This was made cruelty difficult by the darkness. but everyone sprung to it with d will. Many of the injured had been blown from their cots, some even outside their tents, where they were found tangled up in the tent ropes. The American nurse and a hospital orderly, although injured, refused to be relieved and remained at their tasks.

According to the German consti- tuition of April 6, 1871, all bills are brought before the Reichstag in tile name .of the emperor after accept ance by the federal council and are promulgated by the emperor after acceptance by both bodies. The em- peror has never been known to veto bill so accepted. Several times, however, the reichstag has failed to pass a bill after its acceptance by the federal council.

GERMAN PAPER CALLS
US. DEBATING SOCIETY
Severely Criticises President Wilson's
Comment on War; Calls Him
Friend of England.

BERLIN, March 10, pm, via London.
March II, 4:16 a.m.-The reported ut
terances of President Wilson on the
occasion of the luncheon at the White
House to the democratic national COM
mittee. more especially his explicit ref
erence to Allsace Lorraine, has called
forth severe editorial comment The
Vossische Zeitung says:
Mr. Wilson is thus gradually lifting
the mask of a peace-loving neutral,
which he never quite affixed so firmly
that it was impossible to recognize his
true face. He now abandons all REM
nants Of political reserve and openly
proclaims himself the friend of Eng
land he has ever been.
I'm bold defiance to his previous at
titude, in which he asserted that the
United States had no occasion to in
yestigate the causes of the war, he
now in a public speech accuses the cen
trail powers of having plotted the war.
The tactical object of this demonstra-
ton is quite plain. SO far as the
war of autocratic governments against
the will of their peoples is concerned,
we desire to inform Mr.. Wilson that in
the war, which his friends and par
tisans have launched against us. the gov
eminent and people are one in spirit and
one in will Germany is not as is the
United States, "a debating society," but
a united people of action. AS references
we quote our enemies, these friends of
Mister Wilson"
The Morgen Post says: I'VE here have
a typical instance of how the Presi-
dent pictures the world in his mind.
Mr.. Wilson apparently never heard of
the encircling politics of Edward VII.
of the Russo-Franco offensive alliance
against Germany or of the Russian
Balkan intrigues aimed at the life in
terests of the Austro-Hungarians He.
of course, does not know Europe. vet

But your Yankees would mighty soon

ference with Gen. Wood Sir Sam would
say nothing, declaring that in view OF
ing America he did not feel free to talk
officially.

Sir Sam expressed keen interest in
the State Departments ruling that
armed American merchantmen may fire
upon German submarines at sight.
'If the government has done that it
is an act of war" he exclaimed. cit
means nothing else. But Germany has
already committed acts of war on the
United States in many ways and many
times"
Sir Sam alluded to the Zimmerman
note melting Mexico to invite Japan
to form an alliance against the United
States in case of war with Germany.
1T shows that Germany is pretty bad

that Germany has no appreciation OF

German submarines would never get
near enough to New York to shell the
