German War Statement.

NEW YORK, May A. Compiled by
Associated Press from European ca
bles. 1.-The German war Office an
nounced late today that the British
during yesterday succeeded only in
taking Fresnoy and small portions OF
the foremost German trenches near
Bcllecourt. The statement says the
Germans captured 1000 prisoners dur
ing the fighting.
The French announced additional
progress in the Champagne region and
also on the Verdun front. Reactiona-
ries in Germany, apparently alarmed
by the dominance of the socialists
with their program for peace without
annexations or indemnities, presented
an Interpolation in the reichstag to
the chancellor, demanding that he clar
ify his position.

SEE CLOSER UNION OF
ITALY AND FRANCE

ROME, ITALY, May National jeal-
ousies and artistic rivalries which
have been noticeable barriers in past
years to close cooperation between
Italy and France, are being forgotten
in the stress of the world war and are
giving way to feeling of close un-
itv that may result in close alliance
of the two great Latin countries.
This new condition of affairs, which
is being appreciated more fully daily,
was placed squarely before Italy to-
day by significant article published
by the Secolo of Turin. 1t was head
ed Union Latina" and was written
by the distinguished RomolO Caggese.
Recent events in Russia, in the
United States and in China have fixed
the eyes of the world on the future,
Caggese asserts. One hundred mill
lion Germans will occupy Central
Europe. Several square kilometres of
territory stretching across two CONT
nents will be peopled by two hundred
million Slavs. To balance such condi-
tions large Latin family, holding pos
sessions between the Channel and Gil
braltar and the Tirreno and the Yonio
must be formed. 1t must, moreover,
be formed on firm and sold basis"
Caggese predicts that the world will
be dominated by the law of num-
beers and racial feelings will become
stronger than they have ever been"
Otherwise, he says, the results of VIC
tory will amount to nothing" and
Italy, France and, perhaps, Spain, will
again fall prey to German rapacity."
He predicts that other races would
hesitate to buck against block of
one hundred million Latins." He fol-
lows with many reasons why France
and Italy should welcome a firm alli-
ance.
The nationalistic Idea Nazionale of
Rome, appears to be editorially cam
paigning for the union of the Latins.
Even South America with it's thous-
ands of Latin-born people, falls under
the speculative glance of this paper.
There is much speculation as to the
attitude of the present pope. He is
often characterized as "Rompolla's po-
pill" and Rompolla as cardinal secre-
tary of state favored and worked for
a union of Latin nations.

New Gas Plant Building.

1t certainly looks like business to
see the big force Of men at work con-
structing the new gas plant of the
Palatka Public Service Company out
on Main street between Fifth and
Sixth streets.
The company is building great gas
holder with cacpacity of 100000
cubic feet of gas. The contract for
the concrete work was let to F. W.
Long & Co., foreign company, while
the steel work was let to the Gas Ma
chinery Company of Cleveland. Ohio.
These COMPANIES with a large force of
expert workers are now on the ground
and making rapid progress with the
new holder.
As soon as this is completed the
old gas holder which now has a CO pac-
ity of $4,000 cubic feet Of gas. will be
moved TO the rev location and en-
larged 70 a 10000 foot capacity. Com
pleted the present company will have
a gas capacity Of 100000 cubic feet
larger than at present. Must be get
ting ready to sell more gas.

Failure Doesn't Effect Palatka.

The failure of the Heard National
Bank in Jacksonville on Tuesday will
have no depressing effect on Palatka
banks, as none Of them were reckoned
among the Heard depositors. Col.
Hilburn is reputed to be a stockhold-
er in the bank to the amount Of
$4,000. This will be the amount Of
his liability. The Colonel was off on a
days cat hunt and it was not pos
sible to see him; he has the money.
There may be other stockholders in
the city; if so and they were wealthy
enough to own bank stock, they will
be wealthy enough to make good
without ruffing the even tenor Of
their respective ways. Then there
may be some here who have money
deposited in the defunct bank.
Col. a. S. Willard, cashier of the
Putnam National Bank, said: Il be-
lieve the Heard will pay dollar for
dollar of its liabilities. 1t has fully
a third of this amount now on hand,
and its shareholders are liable for an
other third. Its resources are great:
yes, l believe all depositors will be
paid. though it is going to come hard
on the stockholders"

E. NJ. Earnest head of the Earnest
Company is having plans prepared for

Earnest bought the lot next north of
Col. Hilburn's residence some time
ago, but it was only recently that
he began to feel the need of putting
a house upon it. That was when he
received notice that he could not re-
new his lease for the Bass residence.
for the reason that Mrs. Bass would
require it for her own use.
Mr.. and Mrs. Earnest will move
next week. They have secured the
LeBarron residence on Water street
q big house and. near the home of
F. H. Wilson.
Mrs. Bass will move soon after in
10 her home on North Third street.
now occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Earn

house, not large, on my lot on North

see this moving from place to place
is becoming a little tiresome. and |
think we have arrived at the point
now where we could enjoy our own
home. We will probably build this
spring."

Kissimmee Gazette: Here's ore
that will inspire YOU with patriotism,
will make you sacrifice business and

the capacity of border cop" for In
Gle Sam, and means long life (?) for

John Bigger, on-cOmmissioned Off
Ger of Tampa Rifles, Laredo CORE
spondent Of Tampa Morning Tribune,
courtmarraled and sentenced to six
months hard labor'-for what-re-
porting occurrences of his company TO
the people of Tampa, to which no
reasonable, fair-minded person could
take exceptions to, This is certainly
the climax TO our great border tiasco,
and should arouse not only the people
Of Tampa, but Of the entire country
TO such action that the Government
will put an end to the useless service
from which no good has yet, or ever
will result. John Bigger, personally
known to the writer, is one Of the
best young men Of the Cigar City,
and one of her leading citizens. His
patriotism caused him to give up his
profession, and answer the call to
colors, although he had previously
been honorably discharged from his
command. He re-enlisted to do this
for his country. And what is the ap-
probation of such sacrifices as this:
''Six months at hard labor"-military
/ speaking, disgraced. How long are
we at home going to stand for such
indignities heaped upon our citizen
soldiery?
