BERLIN NOTE

Amsterdam, September 21. The German government, in its reply to the peace note of Pope Benedict, a copy of which has been received here, "cherishes a lively de sire" that the appeal may meet with success.
 Emperor William, the German note says, has been following the efforts of the pope toward peace for con siderable time with high respect.
 TEXT OF NOTE
 The text of the reply reads:
 Herr Cardinal Your eminence has been good enough. together with your letter of August 3, to transmit to the Kaiser and King. my most gracious master, the note of his holiness. the pope, in which his holiness, filled with grief at the devastations of the world war, makes an emphatic appeal to the heads of the belligerent peoples. The Kaser-King has deigned to acquaint me with your eminence's letter and to en- trust the reply to me.
 His majesty has been following for a considerable time with high respect and sincere gratitude his holiness ef- forts in a spirit of true impartiality to alleviate as far as possible the surier- ings of the war and to hasten the end of hostilities. The Kaiser sees in the latest step of his holiness fresh proof or his noble and human feelings and cher ishes lively desire that for the benefit of the entire world the papal appeal may meet with success"

Charles Weybrecht, commander or the Tenth infantry, which was split into machine gun battalions by Major Gen. eral Treat, has been designated as colo ne, of the Eighth Ohio infantry. an of fee he held before. Final plans for the splitting up of the regiment were com pleted by division headquarters Friday.

 As soon as tentage has been issued the Ohio division camp will be ready for the 1000 seleetive service men of ohio who will be sent here to become part of the division It is probable that the bulk of the men will go to the Flfth infantry of Cleveland.

 Practically all advance attachments are ready for their regiments to move southwark but they will not start until the selective service men have been de- nvered to their cantonments.

Daily Round of Training Is Now Most Strenuous of the Fifteen Months in
 Federal Service
By M. HARvIE

Camp Albert L. Mills, New
 York, September 18.-(Spe- cial Correspondence. The
 work of the Rainbow divis-
 ion is going forward surely
 and steadily. The daily
 round of training is the most strenuous the old Fourth Alabama (noW the One
 Hundred and Sixty-seventh infantry) had experienced in all it's fifteen months of
 camp life.
 There are drills, exercises, marches
 and conferences from reveille almost to taps. After taps, there is "nothing
 to do till tomorrow" Though most of
 the twenty thousand troops en-
 camped here are old soldiers, their
 training goes on just the same. A
 man can't be too good soldier for
 overseas service, nor can he know his trade too well.
 Though practically every hour of the day is taken up. provisiIn is made for
 the necessary recreation. The men have 1 Wednesday and Saturday. afternoons off. during which time they are gravely as- sured they may wash their clothing.
 clean their equipment and take the nec- essary vaccines and inoculations. Those who have nothing else to do may put in for passes, which entitle the bearer to absent themselves from camp. As these passes are demanded at almost 1 every turn by stern-visaged military police and as those luckless ones who
 forgot" theirs are hustled off under guard, they are a very essential part of pleasure seekers equipment TAKEN FROM TRAINS l It is a pleasing custom of the military
 police to haunt railway stations, trolley ' tContinued on Page Three)

Summary of Outstanding Developments in News From Fronts and Capitals
By Associated Press

The opposing armies still are xerIand in the west. from the Bal tic in the east. in Macedonia and to the Adriatic. In Flanders, how ever. the activity is not intense.
 Field Marshal Hafg has made complete his latest success and his men are holding tight to the new positions taken from the Ger mans on Thursday. Crown Prince Rupprecht hurled counter attacks against the new British lines, hut the Britishers held on firmly to their gains. Berlin officially ad- mits that the British effort was successful and that the Germans were forced to cvacuate some of their defenses in the vital Ypres ! salient. but it attempts to mini- nsixe the importance of the ad- vance.
 The British losses In the assault are reported to have been light.
 On the southern end of the west ern front, the German crown prince has suffered severe losses in an unsuccessful attack on Mont Haut, in Champagne. Other at- tacks by the Germans on the Aisne front and near verdun were rcpulsed by the French.
 There has been no marked fight ing activity on the eastern front.
 The Austrians and Italians ap- parently are resting on the Carso front. In the Trentin0. however, the two armies have been more active. In mn attack at Cima Sief, In the DolOmite Alps, the Italians gained the enemy defenses. The impossibiIity of securing shelter, however. forced the Italians to re- tire.

Southwest of Cheluvelt the Germans still are holding a position which the British desired, and today at s:So o'clock Field Marshal Haig began local attack here.
 This morning found the British still holding strongly the important posi- tions which they had wrested from the Germans The consolidating process effected in the night was Facilitated by the British artillery. its effective work preventing the Germans from bringing up their reserves.
 VICTORY IS IMPORTANT
 The importance of the new ground won lies in the fact that it was high ground taken on the ridge on which ina Anzac flag now flies and extend iner southward and constituting the keystone of the German defenses here Over this the onrushing British yes terday swept with irresistible force.
 Asida from the local operation south west of Ghlenuvelt the situation today south of the Anzac stronghold was virtually unchanged The Germans shelled the left of this front heavily. during the night and showed consid erable activity also immediately to the north.
 Northeast og St. Julien the Germans formed last evening for counter at tack. but the B.i,ish turned heavy rifle and machine gun fire into the enemy ranks and dispersed them with heavy losses.
 MANY COUNTER ATTACKS
 The fighting yesterday was very bit ter in many places. The enemy battled determinedly to hold their positions and when once forced from the lines they were defending continued to re- turn to the attack in an endeavor to oust the British. During the day no less than six counter attacks were delivered on the front north of the Anzac. but in each instance the as saultins troops were hurled back.
 Throughout this time the British continued to improve their lines, reaching out here and there to occupy positions which would give them a stronger hold. M
 Tn the days success many parts of the empire were represented. Aus traiia South Africa, England, Scotland, all gave of their magnitude troops who pushed out across the inhospit , able marsh lands and batt1ed their way through concrete machine gun em . placements and redoubts.
 The whole operation was a remark able demonstration of what organi- zation. backed with plenty of big guns, can accomplish.

This disclosure adds another chapter to the amazing story begun with publication of the famous Zimmerman note in which Germany proposed an alliance with Mexi- co and Japan against the United States and which has included the German Swedish breaches of neutrality in Argen- tina and Mexico. It connects the German government and Count Won Bernstorff directly and exclusively with machine tions which the American public had as- sumed was a part of the worldwide Teu- tonic intrigue. but which many people firmly believed were carried on or financed in this country by German-Americans without actual authority from Berlin.
 Little surprise was occasioned either in official circles or at the capitol, al though members of Congress were highly indignant There was some talk at the capitol of demanding an investigation and Senator Overman, chairman of the Senate lobby committee, and Representa- tive Flood. chairman of the House foreign affairs committee, arranged to go to the state department tomorrow and ask TOT more information

DATE OF MESSAGE

The mes ye was sent nine days before the German government proclaimed it's unrestricted submarine warfare. When he wrote it Count Won Bernstorff was as- surfing the American government and press that under no circumstances would Germany violate her pledges of the Sus- sex case or do anything that might draw the United States into the list of her ene- mics. With the Lusitania and other cases in abeyance the American government had made no move since the Sussex pledge and there was nothing on the sur face to foreshadow impending trouble
 Two weeks later, when Won Bernstorfi was handed his passports, he professed ignorance of prior knowledge of his gov ernment's intentions to throw it's prom ises to the winds.
