SAYS LANDING
MARINES NOT
Intervention
yRer"nlIcen A. p. Leased WireI

SANTIAGO, Cuba, March 12-From
his base at Guantanamo Admiral
Henry T. Mayo, commander of the
United States Atlantic fleet, received
reports today from at least five Cuban
shore stations where American forces
have been landed. From none Of them,
however, came any evidence that the
putting ashore Of the Americans was
the beginning of Intervention.
Five hundred marines and blue
jackets are in Santiago patrolling the
city while smaller deachments are
doing similar duty in Guantanamo,
Manzanillo and Nuevitas. The only
interior stations where American men
warsmen have been placed is at the
FL Combre mine a 1ew miles from
Santiago. The Americans here have
been careful not to interfere in the least
particular with the conduct of the civil
government, the officials appointed by
the liberals before the evacuation of
the city by their troops remaining in
control
Just what the situation is in the in
terror is not known by the Americans.
The government advance forces, COM.
manded by Pablo and Fausto Menocal
brothers of President Menocal, arrived
at San Luis today, which was evacu
ated yesterday by General Comacho
after brief fighting, in which there were
few casualties. Rigoberto Fernan-
dez. with his force of rebels, is at
Songo, southeast of San Luis. This
district is about 20 miles north of San
tiago. The Menocal brothers said they
would await reinforcements before ad-
vancing further.
The banks here remained closed un-
! der orders from their main offices. 1t
| is thought that the most practical
reason for the closing of the banks is
that much of the funds have been
withdrawn by depositors and that all
the government funds, something in
excess of 100000 have been taken by
| the rebels
Santiago ceased to be a closed port
yesterday. The Cuban gunboat Man
tanzas, which had been at the mouth
of the harbor for two days, left this
morning for Guantanamo. She had not
, been permitted to enter Santiago by
Commander Reginald X. Belknap COM
manding the American naval forces
who mas the mine layer San Fran
! cisco and the cruiser Olympia in the
| inner harbor.
Residents of Santiago have known
little of conditions in other parts of the
island since February II, as they hav,
been isolated during this period. Be

ENTENTES MAKE
GAINS AGAINST
TEUTON ARMIES
rRepubIican A. P. Leased Wire1

The Associated Press summarizes
operations of yesterday in connection
with the European war as follows:
Again the French and British war
offices record gains against the Ger
mans in France. Striking in the
Champagne region on front OF l,oOO
meters west of Maisons de Champagne
the French recaptlired all the positions
previously taken by the Germans ON
ridge 1S5 and also invaded a German
fortified work one hundred prisoners
were taken in the operation. In the
Woevre region near Seicheprey rmd
on a German trench was successfully
carried ont. while attacks by the Ger
mans between scissors and Rheims
were repulsed.
The British entered German trenches
near Bouchayesness.- north of PeroRne-
and also carried out raids successfully
south Of Arras. In the latter sector
the German positions were bombed ana
many casualties were lnillcteu on
their occupants.
Heavy artillery activity is in pro-
gress in the Ancre and Somme sectors,
according to Berlin. The German war
office reports the stopping of French
attack south of Ripont, in Champagne
and also the destruction of sixteen en-
tente airplanes and two captive pal
looms in attacks by the Germans. The
London war office announced that nine
German machines were brought down
or driven down damaged. and says that
five German machines are missing.
On the other fronts, except in Meso-
potamia and Persia. where it is as
| sumed that both the British and Rus
slams are still harassing the Turks,
only minor operations have been re
ported AS yet the full details Of the
! capture of Eagdad by the British have
not been made public, although an
nouncement was made at the British
headquarters that there was reason TO
/ believe two thirds of the Turkish ar
tillery had been captured by the Brit
ish or thrown into the Tigris and that
| in addition large numbers OF prisoners
and quantities of material of all kinds
were taken.
Again the Turks are reported by
Petrograd to have made further re-

MANY CARRANzA
MEN WOUNDED
|. IN TRAIN ATTACK

JUAREZ. Mex, March 12-Forty-
three wounded Carranza soldiers We're
taken from the Mexican Central train
which was fired into near Laguna
station Friday, according to for
eiener who arrived here today from
the state capital. He said three Of
the wounded were passengers, but
added that no forign passengers were
on the train at the time it was fired
into by Jose YneZ SalaZars Villa
command. Several bottles of de factc
soldiers We're also taken from the
train, he said. Reports of the num-
Der of dead on each side varied, but
was believed to have been forty-fivc
Carranza soldiers and twenty rebels.
The foreigner said the Mexican engi-
neer of the Passenger train proved
to BE the hero of the rebel attack.
When Salazar's men opened fire from
both sides of the track just north OF
Laguna station, eighty miles north of
Chihuahua City, the engineer reversed
the Throttle of his locomotive, fell to
the floor of the engine cab and per-
mitted the train to back up the track
away from the Villa soldiers. 1t was
done so quickly, the foreigner said, a
band of Villa rebels who had planned
to tear up Il rail in the rear of the
train did not have time to accomplish
their purpose. The engineer continued
to back until he reached Moctezuma,
where a military train preceded the
passenger train to Chihuahua City af-
ter the track had been repaired where
the rebels had torn up rail. Salazar
was said to have been seen leading
his commend by passengers on the
train.

WANTS GERMAN
RAIDER MOVED
TReuublican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, March 12.-Formal
request for the removal from the
League Island navy yard Of the in
termed German commerce raiders
Prinz Eitel Friedrich and Kronprinz
Wilhelm, of the 700 men comprising
their crews, was made personally to
Secretary Daniels today by Mayor
Smith of Philadelphia on the ground
that they constitute a menace to the
safety of the city.
The mayor was told that transfer of
the German crews already was under
consideration. He also was assured
that every precaution was being taken
to guard against the possibility of any
disturbance by the German sailors and
that they were under constant sur
yeillance by the navy yard authorities.
No official report of the arrest on
charges of smuggling of some of the
Germans has reached the department.
Officials said they had heard infor-
mally, however, that several arrests
had been made and that rumors were
current in Philadelphia that high ex-
plosives were being secretly taken
aboard the ship 1t has been suggested
that the interned crews be sent to
some inland army barracks, but none
has been found available.

Speculation continues as to the part

more direct connection with the Eu-

NEW YORK, March II. = Major
General Leonard Wood, stirred by
criticism Of compulsory military SER
vice. in an address at banquet of the
Economic club here tonight turned on
the speaker. the Rev. Adolf A. Berle,
widely known as a lecturer on educa-
tional topics. and declared that the
doctrine he preached means the mur-
der of our sons and the dishonor of
our women"
General Wood had addressed the
diners earlier in the evening. He asked
for second hearing after DR.. Berle
had arraigned the advocates OF COM
pulsory military service and asserted
that with three months training he
could "hold his own with any officer
in the field
DR.. Berle had said that preparedness
had been "harped upon by every secre-
tary of war for 80 years, and added
that he saw no reason to become
hysterical and attempt to organize an
army in fifteen minutes larger than
the Prussian army before the war
which required 100 years to perfect.
Major General Woods temperance
brought the diners to their feet with
cheers.
"Of course, we want volunteer SER
vice. Just as we want voluntary NOR
ality, just as we want everything that
is good" asserted General Wood, "but
! none but a fool expects to get it."
