FRENCH DRIVING \
GERMANS BACK
GENERAL PETAIN's MEN SWEEP
OVER GERMAN DEFENSES
WRECKED BY BIG GUNS.
Audaeious Airmen Aid In Fight, Flying
over German Positions and Using
Their Machine Guns With
Telling Effect.

London.-The French forces OF Cen
eral Petain struck mighty and Inex-
pected blow against the German line
northeast of scissors Tuesday morn
ing and made some of the most i'm
portnnt gains of terrain since they
threw back the army of the German
crown prince which was besieglng
Verdun.
The stroke was made over front of
about six miles, from the east of
Vauxaillon to Pargny-Filaln, and came
after week of heavy artillery fire.
Under rainy and generally unfavorable
weather conditions, the French pushed
forward all along the line, aided by
audacious avlators who flew over the
German positions at an altitude Of
about $50 feet, using their machine
guns and penetrated the German line
at one point to depth of two and
one-ffth miles.
Take Many Prisoners.
Numerous important positions fell
into the hands of General Petain's
men and in addition, more than 1900
material and twenty-five heavy and
field guns were captured.
The greatest depth Of the drive was
in the center of the line, where the
village of Chuvignon was captured
after n violent struggle, which resulted
in the enemy fleeing pell.mell. Some
Of the best troops in the army of the
German crown prince were engaged In
endeavoring to hold back the on
slaught, but their efforts were unnvail-
ing, under the enthusiasm OF the
French TO win positions which would
place them more advantageously for
nn advance later toward Laon.
Britons Holding Gains.

French troops are holding all the gains
made In Mondays drive northeast OF
Ypres, except at one place on the
southern fringe of Houtholst forest,

ter-attack, forced slight retirement

we're the heaviest losers. Two OF
their dreadnoughts, one cruiser, twelve
torpedo boats, one transport and num-
erous mine sweepers were put out of
action by the Russian fleet. While
the exact fate OF these vessels has not
been ascertained by the Petrograd gov
eminent, IL is announced that ut least
six OF the German destroyers were
sunk.
Further German attempts TO land

AN APPEAL TO THE LANDED ARISTCcRAcY OF GREAT BRITAir
Countess of Warwick Asks Them to Turn Over FeudaI Properties to the State.

London, May 4.-The Countess of Warwick, owner of 2S, 900 acres has issued a stirring appeal to the landed ariStOcracy of Great Britain to follow the example of the Russian grand dukes and turn over all their feudal properties to the state.
 We must go." she says. "The aris- tocracy of England, in it's position of hereditary landowners must go
 The country rings with suggestions for the betterment of the conditions under which land is cultivated, but as I see things. the suggestions are in no instance drastic enough.
 "The only cure for the present evils seems to me to be st.ete ownership the abolition of all private property in the earth that was given to all of us in common.
 There are two classes of large landowners in England, the aristoc- racy and the plutocracy.
 AS a class, the aristocracy have been good landlords within limits, but the limits are very marked, becAuSe they have always been a narrow minded body. The average chatelaine who plays the part of Lady Bountiful is to me an abomination, because her philanthropy is so closely associated with dogmatic religion, personal pride, and party politics.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS DEPRESSED.
Apprehension Concerning Foreign Af-
 fairs s Growing Acute.

| New York, May 4.-The stock mar ket was again under a cloud of de- i pressio ntoday, that condition being l less pronounced as to the general list, | however, than in the far more active | operations of the previous day. Ap-
 prehension concerning foreign affairs | was increasingly acute, especially in connection with the situation in Rusr | sia.
 Further selling of representative se- curities at severe concessions was again the overshadoWing feature and served as a constant restraint in othe- quarters. Many theories were offered in explanation of the incesSant offer ings of investment rails, the belief per
 sisting that they represented Hquida

 Chief among the more extreme re- sessions of the day were Norfolk and

THE SINKING AND
 LOOPING OF NEUTRAL SHIPS
An Interesting Example of What Ger
 mans Have Been Doing.

Christiania- Norway, May +-The proceedings before a naval court re- garding the sinking of the Norwe- gian steamer Storaas have again shown an interesting example of how some German regular naval officers behave when sinking and footing neu- tral ships. The sworn deposition of the court says:
 "The Storaas, ballasted sailed from Moss, Norway, bound for the United States to touch at Tyne, England, for coal. Midway between Norway and England in the North sea, March A. a U-boat was observed astern- Ths Storaas immedia tely was stopped and these got lowered, the U-boat fired twice. The captain rowed over to the U-boat and was ordered to take on Graman officer and three mariners to the Storaas. The Germans placed bombs in the engine room and tunnel took the launch, filled it with proVfs- ions. butter, sugar, coffee, canned goods, soap. etc. After that they helped themselves to the crews per

Captain Guide Due took these articles back from him, caught him by the collar and led him out of the cabin. saying he would ra- ther see these things go to the bottom of the ocean than to- the Germans.

To the captain he said:

 While their leading officer was loot ing the captains cabin the three ma riners were working likewise in the other cabtns-one who likely was a petty officer footed the Cabins of the Storaas officers, while the mariners rifed the forecas astle."
 The German officer had promised Captain Guide Due to tow the life boats nearer land but when Storaas was sunk the U-boat signalled to steer west while 1t. at full speed. steered in the opposite direction.
 After having suffered great hard ships for three days and nearly given up hope of being saved, both boats reached the Norwegian coast and all were saved The Norwegian press re- ports the affair under such headlines as: Germans stole on board Storaas,' "U- boat officer broke into captains cabin and rif1ed his personal belong ings" and German freedom of the seas"
