1T is highly important in present

GEN. JOFFRE'S REMARKS
Who Suggested Censoring Paragraph
About Sending Troops?

WASHINGTON, May 5.-AlLnOuSH lue
French mission has accepted full re-
sponsibility for censoring Marshal
Joffre's remarks on the Immediate
need Of sending American troops to
France, controversies continue as to
whether the expurgation might not
have been made as a result OF the
opposition of the army general stan
to sending American troops out OF
the country at time when they are
wanted for training the new army.
The state department has officially
disclaimed any part whatever IN
the expurgation and has made IT
plain that it issued Marshall Joffre's
statement as it was delivered by the
French mission, purely as an act OF
courtesy to the visitors, because 1t
has facilities for issuing copies OF
documents and the French mission
has none.
War department officials declined to
discuss the incident at all, because II
touches on subject about which the
department discourages any specula-
ton at this TIM Only yesterday
Secretary Baker in an official state
ment deplored speculation on when
American troops were to go abroad
and indicated that no final decision
had been reached.
The explanation most freely given
is by Emil Hovefaque, of the French
mission, who has been acting as an
Interpreter and who read the news
paper men a translation of Marshal
Joffre's statement last Sunday.
This translation, contained the rel
erence which has been expurgatea
from the official report when later Is
sued through the state department Dy
the French mission.
In referring to the expurgatlon OF
the statement, Mr.. Hovelaque SAID:
eve discovered that it might be un-
pleasant to the war department; that
it might react on public opinion. We
expurgated the formal statement. NJ.
Viviani did not see it before 1t was
read to the newspaper men,"
Col. Cosby, former military attacne
at the embassy in Paris, has ben at
tachsd to the mission since its ARRIVAL
and, of course is familiar with the
views of the general staff. The French
mission, however, accepts full respon-
sibility for the expurgation and there
is not even an intimation that col.
Cosby suggested it.
Marshal Joffre's declaration for the
sending Of American soldiers lmme-
diately, coming at time when con-
gress and government officials are
confronted with the -roblem Of deal
ing with Col. Rooseve offer to lead
a division to France If TIE government
will authorize it, has furnished the
material for a lively controversy over
what the marshal actually said ana
who was responsible for expurgatlns
it when his statement went to the
public.

|JANESBURG LOSES
||ST BASEBALL GAME
special to the EvENIso NEWS.

bRotiut 10 Hc n FHNfNQ N6 Wu.
Jamesburg, April e.-Jamesburg
High School baseball team opened
their season Saturday on the Lincoln
avenue grounds with a defeat. The
final score was to 6.
The victors were what was left of the
crack 1915 team that was the best that
has ever represented the local school.
The fact that several Of the present
team were absent makes the victory
more hollow.
In the fifth inning Thorn, pitching
for the '15 team, was touched up quite
lively and he was sent In hurry to
the bench. Timberman pitched the
balance of the inning but not before
four runs had been placed to the credit
of the losers.
Brown pitched for the losers and he
was right there the entire game, and
the result would have been different.
The feature of the game was the three
bagger by Breckwedel, from the win
ners.
When Breckwedel made his triple
there were three on base and this hit
was responsible for the victory. The
game was played under very unfavor-
able conditions and the high winds
greatly interfered with the work Of
both teams.
The high school team is desirous of
booking games with all the schools of
the country.
The score by innings follows:
1915 Team. % 0 0 8 0 2 / 0 1 0 I-8
