To Make No Distinction.

Amsterdam, March 1.-Thcre is to be
no distinction made by German sub
marines in sinking neutral ships in the
barred zone and the fact that the Am
criean steamer Orleans safely passed
through the danger zone is not to be at
tributed to any Withholding of Ger
many's weapon. Comments of Berlin
newspapers received here today, made
this clear.
Nearly all quoted Foreign Secretary
Zimmerman rs asserting;
"We make absolutely no distinction
Our determination is unshakable, since
that is the only way to finish the wal
this summer, desire in which we all
join"
The Berlin newspapers assumed that
fogs, which were officially reported as
having delayed the Orleans arrival
also hmdered operation of the subma.
rines. The fact that the Laeonia was
sunk at night, contrary to usual sub.
marine operations, was referred to as in
dicating the adaptabihty of submarines
and the difficulty all vessels win have
in escaping them.

Berlin, via Sayville wireless, March
l-Evacuation " for special reasons " of
part of the German advanced positions
ON both sides Of the Ancre, were re.
ported in today's official statement
from German headquarters.
Troops which were removed have
been placed in other positions, already
prepared, it is stated.
The statement says:
Carefully acting rear guard posts
hindered the enemy troops, which crop
cd forward with the greatest hesitation
from occupying without fighting STRIP
of land which was abandoned by us and
which is now lying in ruins.
Yielding in the face of a numerical
ly superior attack, which had been or
dered, these minor detachments inflict
ed considerable sanguinary losses to the
enemy and captured IL Officers, ia
men from the ranks and four machine
guns. They still dominate today the
forefield of our position.
In the eastern war theatre there was
nothing of Importance reported.

MISGUIDED WOMEN LEADERS

The position in which the lower hoouse of congress
finds itself owing to neither of the old parties having
majority and hence not able to organize the house With
out the aid of the Independents apty illustrates the sit
uation the womans party has brought upon ITSELF and
shows the damage the itmed movement during the
last election caused The independents have demanded all
kinds Of patronage and advantages for their support and
they have demanded so much that they may have over
played their hand The old parties may consent to fair
division of the chairmanshps and organize in that way
shutting the Independents out entirely The Capital
Journal during the campaign last Fall suggested that the
threat of the women to vote sodly for against any
party in order to force that party to ndorse suffrage
would do untold damage the movement 1t would if
this principle was carried out by the suffragettes place
them in all political matters just where the independents
are in congress now. If, party the womans party
could hold together and deliver the goods it would hold
the balance of power all the time and on all matters IN
other words, holding the balance of power it would
virtually be the reigning power and have control IN all
things forcing the other of the old parties to obey
ii or be beaten.
National suffrage received its most damaging blow
from that movement Parties are not going to place
themselves deliberately at the mercy OF women especially
the class Of women who came west to tell their benghted
sisters out west how to vote They not going to place
themselves in the condition in which congress now finds
itself with the womans party to decide between them
That misguided lot who backed this plan put knife IN
national suffrage The states not yet granting will fear
to do So and if the matter submitted to vote now
as these same women insist on it would lose To force 1t
to vote while last years actions are still fresh In the
public mind would be poor politics as was the assuming
