RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR
 TO US. QUITS HIS JOB
By Review Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON, April 17.-GeOrge Bakhmeteff, Russian ambassador to the United States since 1911 cabled the provisional government at Petrograd today that he had decided to relinquish his office and asked that someone be named to take charge of the embassy.
 Distinctly a member of the old i'm perial regime. the ambassadors separ- atiOn from the new democratic govern ment has been a foTegone conclusion. Only today it became known that Baron Rosen, MT. Bakhmeteff's prede- cessor here, probably would be sent to succeed him if he was not already en- route to Washington.
 So far as known this action of an ambassador in declining to continue in his office is unprecedented in history of diplomatic Washington.
 NIT. Babhemetef it is stated has re- mained at his post since the revolu- tfon solely because he expected the Grand Duke Michael to head the new government.
 Mir. Bakhmeteff has taken two houses in Chevy Chase. fashionable suburb. where he will make his resi- dence for the summer.

 THOUSANDS FAIL ID
 STOP FRENCH SWEEP
French Are Astride Famous Hindenburg Line In Sois- sons Sector And Going Ahead With Great Strides.

FROM A STAFF CORRENPOND- ENT OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.
 GRAND HEADQUARTERS OF THE FRENCH ARMY, on the French front. (Monday night, April Is. De layed) Not only did the French army get astride and partly around the sO- called Hindenburg line today. but. in doing so, they captured many thou sands of German prisoners. After one of the most intensive artillery bomb ardments of the war, the French to- night advanced along another 25-mile front
 The Germans opposed the advance with their utmost power. bringing in to play thousands of cannon and ma chine guns, which had been emplaced in the most advantageous positions. Nothing. however, could withstand the French. whose ardor was strength ened by the sight of the desolation through which they passed.
 The correspondent of the Associat- ed Press watched one phase of the battle from a prominent position in the new French advance. The bri- gade, with which he was stationed, was composed of troops who had won the highest fame in pushing back the Germans around Verdun. Now, as then. it was under the command of colonel, who proudly informed the spondent that he had fought be- side both Americans and British in the Boxer war Part of the brigade's task today was the capture of a posi- tion forming one of the most difficult problems along the line owing to it's being undermined for it's whole length and breadth by deeply tunnel ed quaTries, whose galleries were i'm mune from artillery and bristlins with machine guns.
 There was no hesitation among the Frenca soldiers when the order to ad- vance was given, but they did nor throw their lives away. There was no hurry. every movement was executed as if on parade. Advantage was talk en Of every inch Of cover. and thus the infantry were able to approach within striking distance of the num- erous entrances to the tunnels; then they encircled the whole plateau and left sufficient men around to prevent the garrison's retreat or it's commun- ication with the main body of the Germans. Its fate was then sealed.
 Meanwhile the bulk of the French troops continued their advance both here and on other parts of the line. Telephonic reports from various sec tors told of the successes of the diff

MEXICAN GOVERNMENT SEXES TEHUANTEPEC
 R. R. FROM BRITISH
(By Review Leased Wire)

MEXICO CITY, April 17.-Control of the Tehuantepec railroad running from Puerto, Mexico to Salina Cruz and connecting the Atlantic with the Pacific. will be taken over immediately by the government. The road is owned equally by Britishers headed by Lord Cowdry and the Mexican govern ment. The railroad has been a pros porous investment and the partnership agreement between the British inter- ests and the government provides the taking over of the road by either side under certain conditions.
 The other British-owned railroad, running from Vera Cruz to Mexico City. was taken over by the govern ment a few days ago on a plea of mill tary necessity.

NEW CITY ORDINANCE
 REGULATING SALE QF :
 FIREARMS IS PASSED
Measure Adopted Last Night Provides That Every Dealer Shall Immediately Register With City Marshal.

The city council last night gently but firmly refused to increase the pay of Chief Barney Norton and members of the fire department after a heated discussion in which Chief Norton and Councilman Holl were the principal participants Hardly had Norton talk en the floor and asked the mayor and council to increase salaries in his de pertinent on the ground of the long hours put in by the firemen. the high CT cost of living and the fact that oth- CT cities were paying their firemen more, than Councilman HolZ came out fiat-footed and opposed it with the ar gument that the city had no money for any more salary increases and that the firemen were getting paid enough at present. considering the amount of work they did. Other mem bers of the council expressed the opinion that the firemen should be paid more. but said the city was help less to do anything at present,
 Chief Norton, in several verbal skirmishes with Councilman HolZ, de- clared that the local department had as good a record in comparison to the size of the city as any in the south west and | lat it was maintained more cheaply tlAn any other in the state. Councilman Holz, however, stood firmly upon his statement that the present sd hries were sufficient, and would havs to prove so until the city was in position to afford increases.
 No Action Taken
 Councilman Billy Delbridge, chair man of the fire commission, delivered a lengthy speech, the subject of which ranged from the tax rate in Globe to the wear and tear on automobile tires in California, in which he explained in detail why the city could not afford to grant the firemen any increases in salaries. He declared that a state law prevented the city from spending any more on any department than al lowed in the annual budget, with the exception of the police department. He also expressed the opinion that the firemen deserved better pay if there was any way to give it to them.
 After the question had been dis cussed for half an hour, the council passed on to other topics. without having taken any action.
 At the suggestion of government officials. the council adopted an emergency ordinance regulating the sale and shipment of firearms, ammu- nition and explosives The ordinance provides that every person. firm or corporation. dealing in any of the arti-

 Deadlock Avoided
 Consideration of the widening Of O. K. street to sixteen feet threatened to result in a deadlock between the council and Robert Hennessey, but was finally brought to an amicable conclusion. MT. Hennessey address ed the oouGcil regarding it's request that he donate four feet of his proper ty to the city to widen the street. He declared that to do so would greatly decrease the value of his property, which faces on Naco Road. MT. Hen nessey's contention was that if he dO- mated four feet it would be taking away that much of his front footage and he said he did not believe the widening of the street would improve the property enough to make up for this loss. After l.. C. Shattuck, Chas. Cunningham and Baptiste Caretto had agreed to change their property to comply with the proposed new street line. Mir. Hennessey announced that he would be glad to discuss the matter further with a committee ap- pointed by the mayor. He had pre- viously agreed to donate two feet to the city. but asked $500 for the other two feet IL is not probable that this offer will be accepted, however, as the members of the council expressed the opinion that if MT. Hennessey was paid for any part of his property used in widening the street, it would be only fair that every other property holder should exercise the same right.

DON'T TAKE BRITISH
 PRISONERS IS WORD
 OF GERMAN EMPEROR
Teutons, Worried Over Pres- ent Lull In Great War;. Watching Allied Trenches With Catlike Alertness.
(By Review Leased Wire)

From a Staff Correspondent of the Associated Press With the British Armies in France. Via London. May 31.-While comparative quiet con- tinues to reign along most of the west ern front. the war is far from stand ing still. That great machine behind the fighting forces continues to move with neverresting energy.
 | Artillery duels break out by day and by night along the various sectors of the long battle line and there passes now unnoticed an expenditure of shells which. two years ago. would have been regarded as little short of marvellous. But the game of modern warfare is ever a progressive one. and the miracle of today becomes the commonplace of tomorrow.
 The infantry activity lately has been confined wholly to raids and minor local attacks. These are con ducted mainly for the purpose of keeping in touch with the enemy's movements and intentions. Both the British and Germans adopted these tactics and the few hours of darkness later are filled with trench maraud- ing expeditions.
 The Germans appear daily to grow more nervous and worried by the present lull They are watching the British with cat-like alertness The slightest alarm during the night sets their guns going and many defensive barrage curtains have been thrown uselessly in front of British positions. Some of their airplanes also are talk ing desperate chances in flying low over the line. endeavoring to keep in touch with any important movement.
 The German government continues to fill the air with wireless prOpagan- da against the British. virtually ignor- ing all the other allies, including the United States. The trench version in the Arras district of Emperor Will liam's recent speech was to the effect that no British prisoners should be taken; that the Germans should hate all the English, and if they could not avoid taking some prisoners they were to treat them with the greatest severity. Emperor William was at Douai and at Tournai. May 23. and made speeches at both places.
