Germans Deny Heavy Losses
German Raids PreSage
Big Blow, London Says

London, Jan. 23.-While there have
been no large infantry operations on
the West Front recently, the continued
raids by the Germans, French and Brit
ish at different parts Of the front iead
observers to believe that the predicted
offensives are not far of. Not only are
the Teutons raining blows on the de-
fences north Of Verdun without cessa.
ton. but they are nibbling at points OF
the British lines which have been Tree
from attack for months.
Yesterday the Germans raided the
trenches northeast of Armentieres
three separate times, returning WIN
prisoners and guns, but with thlnned
ranks. Their patrols were extremely
active in the section of Alsace nearest
the Swiss frontier. The Allied troops
raided trenches in Lorraine and near
Melville st. Vast.
The vigorous fighting between the
Caurieres Wood and Douaumont, on
the Verdun front, has resulted IN a
feeling that the Crown Prince IL medi-
tating a last desperate attempt on the
Meuse. One group of critics regards
this as a cover for a strong German
effort elsewhere.
Six German aeroplanes were brought
down by the French yesterday, three
in aerial encounters and three by anti.
aircraft guns. The British accounted
for one enemy machine and lost one OF
their own. Montdidier was bombarded
by a squadron OF German planes.

WHITE-CLAD GERMANS
ATTACK NEAR RIGA
Ruse Proves Failure
Battle Grows on Entire
Russian Front

London. Jan. -Mackensen has
started new drive northward from
the Dobrudja Bulgarian forces yester-
day crossed the southern arm of the
Danube near Tulcea and fortified them
selves on the northern bank, where a
Russian attack was beaten of,
It seems probable that the German
commander intends to make a joint
move at this point and at the Fundeni
bridgehead, near Nanesti, to flank the
Sereth line and make it untenable for
the Russians and Rumanians. The
nature Of the terrain in Northeastern
Dobrudja is likely to hamper his
progress there, but once he IS over the
Bessarabian border the Russo-Ruma-
Man army will be compelled TO surren-
der Galatz and the southern end Of the
Sereth line of defences.
On the rest of the front clear
weather favored operations. but the
activities of both sides were confined
10 minor infantry movements and a
terrific artillery battle, which shows no
signs OF abating. In patrol engage
ments In the Obodechti Mountain and
in the Slanic and Putna valleys the
Teutons captured 100 prisoners and re-
pulsed Russian advances, according to
Berlin.

BRYAN REJECTS PEACE

Madison, Wis, Jan. 23.-"Ihe fresl-

William Jennings Bryan said in An IN
terview here to-day. "Insofar as the
Presidents message suggests terms OF

unanimous sentiment, but | dissent
entirely from the proposition that this
nation should join in a movement 10

"If | know the sentiment OF the
American people, IL is inconceivable
that they should be willing to put the

DUTCH PRESS WELCOMES
WILSON PLAN FOR FUTURE
Ready for World Monroe Doctrine, but
Doubts Its Realization

London, Jan. 23.-The Amsterdam
"Handelsblad," quoted in a Reuter-
dispatch, considers President Wilson's
address ideal, beautiful and calculated
to create a lasting peace, provided It
were accepted by all" The paper, now,
ever, greatly doubts whether this ideal
can be realized.
The Amsterdam TELEGRAPH" is Of the
opinion that President Wilson's pro-
gramme was inspired by the Entente
tote. and declares it difficult 70 assume
that when the President mentions Pc
land he refers only to Russian Poland.
The paper approves the reference TO
the Monroe Doctrine, and believes that
the President alludes not only to the
nations which heretofore have figured
on the map of Europe, but wants Mon
roeism applied also to nations over
which Austria and Germany now rule.
The "Nieuws van den Dag" also
dwells on the passage relating TO Pc
land. and recalls how Germany has
given clearly to understand that Prus-
sian Poland will never he united to an
INDEPENDENT Polish kingdom.

Constant Hunger Keeps
All Germany in Gloom
No Nutritious Food To Be Had Says Hungarian Socologist
Workers Tired and Slent-Meaning
Of Peace a Puzzle

IL is impossible TO obtain nutritious
food of any kind in Berlin. according
TO correspondence from Germany ap-
pearing in recent issue of the
"Vilag,' a daily published at Buda-
pest, Hungary. The correspondent is
Professor p. Agaston, Hungarian So
biologist with an established reputa-
tion. Part of Professor Agastons ar
ticle, which contains some Illuminating
information on Germany's present
state of mind, follows:
IL noticed with surprise that the
present German meals will not satisfy
ones hunger. Two hours after my
meal ! felt as hungry as a wolf, which
compelled me to look for another res
taurant where to eat again. But all
the obtainable food is not sufficiently
nutritious. Only once | succeeded in
finding in a restaurant French sau-
sage, the size of my little finger, for
which | paid 1 mark 30 pfennigs.
"The food dictator has provided an
additional ration for the workers, but
the latter claim that they don't get it.
In front of the popular kitchens dur
ing the dinner hour there stand long
lines n hungry and tired workingmen,
who used to utilize in the past that
hour for rest. And it is therefore not
surprising that in the evening after
the working hours the streetcars are
packed with sleeping people.
People Silent and Weary
"a similar WEAKNESS and silence is
to be observed throughout the entire
country. All are silent and avoid con-
versation. There is everywhere a feeling
of mutual distrust It is true one will
not hear anywhere even a single word of
dissatisfaction, but one will also fail
to hear any expression of enthusiasm.

Shot Halls Danish Ship
Suspected Raider Aid

Rio de Janeiro, Jan. %. The Danish
steamer Hammershus was fired on and
halted last night by the garrison of
the port at Santa Cruz. She entered
the port at 10 o'clock last night and

received a quantity of provisions and
explosives from the German ships and
was attempting to put to sea shortly.
1t became known to-day, however,
that the captain of the Hammershus
made a mistake as to the place of
anchorage and started to return to the
entrance of the harbor on learning Of
his error.
The Minister of Marine and the
naval chief of staff to-day visited the

which the cruiser left this evening at

u. S. Representatives in
Berlin Inquire About
Neutral Prisoners
COMMANDER READY
TO SINK PRIZE
Warned Captives That
Mutiny Would Mean
Instant Death

Berlin, Jan. 23.-United States AM
bassador Gerard to-day made formal
inquiry at the Foreign Office as 60
whether any Americans were among
the neutral prisoners of war on board
the Yarrowdale.
Some of the details Of the voyage OF
the Yarrowdale, captured by the Ger
man commerce raider in the South At
lantic and brought into Swinemdnde,
were disclosed to-day by Naval Lieu
tenant Badewitz, commander of the
German prize crew which brought her
to port. When asked how he succeed
ed in bringing the Yarrowdale through
the North Atlantic and the blockade
into the North Sea with crew Of only
sixteen men and several hundred hos
tile persons on board, he replied:
For such an action you need only
to exercise GOODNESS and determined,
blunt carelessness, especially if you
have to deal with Englishmen. In adj
dition, you need to have handful Of
smart boys like mine, who have their
hearts in the right place and revolvers
in their pockets. Then you can fetch
the devil from his own house"
Discipline First Rate
Questioned as to how he held his
oddly mingled memb RS of the pris-
oner crews under discipline, Lieuten-
ant Badewitz replied:
"The discipline was first rate. When
ever the order to go below was issued,
the whole crowd of prisoners hurried
to the lower decks, running like
hares."
Lieutenant Badcwitz said that he and
the sixteen men of his own crew never
left the bridge of the Yarrowdale, and
all preparations were made to sink the
ship at moments notice without
leaving the bridge All on board, he
said. knew that he would have sunk
the vessel in event of mutiny or a
revolt. The captured captains were
very sensible, and did much to hold
their men in check.
Hoped TO Make Norway
The prisoners thought that they
could count upon touching at Nor
wegian port. Among them were six
members of the British navy, of whom
three belonged to an English armed
merchantmen, on board which they
had served as gunnegs.
When the Yarrowdale was riding at
anchor south of Island Haven, in the
Sound, on account of the fog, one Brit
ish naval gunner and one civilian
jumped overheard to swim ashore, but
no sooner felt the cold water than they
began to cry for help. They were res
cued
Before the war Lieutenant Badewitz
was employed in the merchant service.
He lives in Kiel.
