British forces have come in con-
tact with a new Turkish line on the
Diala river six miles below Bagdad,

within rs miles of the upper part of
the Diala river. Intense fighting
continues along the Champagne Sec
tor on the Franco-Belgian front The
German attempt to recapture ground
recently won resulted in new French
advances, according to a French re-
port.
The Norwegian steamer Storstad, a
Belgian relief ship, with one Ameri-
can on board, was sunk by subna-
rine, but London reports the Ameri-
can was safely landed.
In the advance on a front of more
than three miles in Ancre region the
British captured the village of Aries
and neighboring defenses, according
to an official statement tonight.

Washington, March 10.-Uncertain-

tons for the special session called by
President Wilson for April 16, five
weeks from Monday, to consider ap-
preparation bills and other important
measures on which final action was
not taken before adjournment of the

The new body probably will be asked
to consider the armed neutrality bill
specially authorizing President Will
son to arm American ships and ap-
propriating funds for the purpose, de-
spite the presidents decision yester-
day that he already has executive
power to put navy guns, gunners and
ammunition aboard merchantmen.
The organization of the new house
cannot be foretold at this time, for a

Both republican and democratic
leaders declare they will have sup
port from enough of the so-called in
dependent group to control the or

jority of IL.
Speaker Clark believes that con-
gress will find so much work before

By ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, March 10.-The mere
appearance of German submarine
or its periscope in the presence of an
American armed merchant vessel en-
title that ship, according to state de-
partnent opinion today, to take all
measures Of protection on the pre-
sumption that the U-boat's purpose
was hostile.
Under this ruling an American
armed merchantmen could fire on a
German submarine the moment it is
sighted, without being considered as
taking aggressive action. This view
is based on Germany's declared in
tention to sink on sight when within
certain zones all vessels, neutral as
we'll as belligerent and whether pas
senger vessels, freighters or contra
band carriers.
The United States was said to
stand fatty on its armed merchant
men warning of March 81, last, in
which it definitely recognized the
fright to prevent capture" as part
of the fright of self protection"
which could be exercised either by
fight or resistance. The mere pres
ence of German submarine declared
ground for assuming hostile intent
because of the statement by Germany
that all vessels are to be sunk on
sight. Denial by Germany of the old
rule of visit and search makes all its
U-boats actually hostile.
Whether the government will issue
any general rules for the guidance of
American armed ship commanders is
uncertain at present. Opposition to
such action has been expressed on the
ground that the situation is now en-
tirely clear that in all events the act
ion of the commander must depend on
his judgment and the actual condit-
ions prevailing and that the govern
ment does not wish to take any steps
which might be construed as DELHI
erately hostile act by Germany.
Reports that the state department
was preparing white book on Ger
many's plots and intrigues in this
country for presentation shortly
either to the press or to the senate
were denied by Secretary Lansing to
day. He said that no such step was
in contemplation and that no present
end could be served by it.
