Uneasy Over Wider Franchise.

The Prussan conservative party in
serted in the press a note in which it
says with regard to the parliamentary
reform:
The conservative party cannot admit
that the measure in question is dictated
by experiments made since the war nor
that ii is susceptible to aid us in sur
mounting the difficulties of the present
situation or in inspiring the people
with the Will to conquer. This is why
the conservative party can only look
upon the notifications providing for
the right to vote with regret and un-
easineSs for the future of the country"

Another valuable feature in sham battle

great Importance of what is known as
liaison work. the maintenance OF COM
munication with supporting artillery with
flanking forces, with airplanes and with
information centers. Attacks are accom-
panied by live rocket display as S. O.
curtain of fire from the artillery and
calling reserves from companies in sup
port of the trenches. The rockets are
also used in the guise of artillery fire

prince has conferred with several emf
nent personalities of all parties in re-
gard to the present situation.
The personal opinion of the crown
prince is known. His attaches are with
the pan -GermaniSt conservative party
and he himself has no sympathy for a
parliamentary regime. The Taeglische
Rundschau. a conservative paper, re-
lates that the imperial prince gave a
poor reception to the chancellor when
the latter called to announce the immi-
nent publication of the imperial man
date on electoral reform in Prussia
The crown prince impaired to Won
Bethmann Hollweg the fears with
which this policy inspired him. The
chancellor avoided all discussion.
Persons who assert they are well in
formed" affirm that the war has COM
pletely changed the ideas of the eldest son
of William H. saying he has become the
most pacific of princes. Those same per-
sons say that recently the emperor con-
sidered the adviSahility of abdicating in
the name of the superior cause of hui
manityT in favor of his son. who on the
occasion. made solemn speech destined
to reassure the most ferocious enemies of
Germany. The abdication of William II
is reported to be merely deferred it will
become a reality soon as the projected
reforms have been accomplished in the

AMERICANS TARGETS
OF ENEMY" ATTACKS
U. S. Troops, Particularly Marines,
Have Progressed Far in
Their Training.

BY the Associated Press.
AMERICAN TRAINING CAMP IN
FRANCE, August 21.-Training in some
of the American battalions has pro-
gressed to such a point that sham at
tacks on the trench system are being
carried out with a degree akin to ac
tual warfare. Thus far artillery fire
has been only theoretical, but before
perience of watching the effect of real
artillery upon the trenches.
The marines are having some espe-
cially lively engagements this week
with their French instructors. French
been making attacks upon the marine
trench system with Dewey. Farragut,
Porter and Sampson trenches as the
battle objectives. The French also
have been attempting to block and hold
communication trenches known as
Ohio, Mississippi, Delaware and Poto-
mac. 1t will be seen that the marine
trench nomenclature is based upon the
naval heroes and rivers of the United
States.
Make Stout Resistance.
stout resistance and wherever the EN-
emy" penetrated their lines they organ
izer a counter attack which quickly
elected the intruders. The real object
of these preliminary attacks is to get
the officers and men acquainted with
what are known at the front as opera
ton orders.
It is the first step toward learning the
rudments of a highly organized part of
modern warfare where every step and
every detail is worked out in advance on
prearranged plan and must be strictly
adhered to.
One great difference from real warfare,
however. is the fact that in battles with
the marines the enemy has accommo-
datingly allowed copy of his opera ton
orders to fall into the hands of the de-
Tending garrison. This will be changed
later and the American trench garrison
will be called upon to resist surprise
attacks in force.
