RUSSIAN GRAND DUKE .u..#
ISFETED IN PERSIA
tBy the Associated Press)

PEfROGRAD, March IL - The
Grand Duke Boris has Just made q
visit to Urumia in Persian Armenia, it
being the first time n history that this
ancient city had welcomed a member
of the Russian royal family. BY order
of the authorities every shop in the
bazaars was decorated, and all the
streets and squares were adorned with
fine Persian rugs and other decorations
dear to the Oriental heart Several
arches were erected and all the way
from the landing place at the Lake to
the city, a distance of twelve miles, the
Grand Duke found crowds lining both
sides of the road. The masses were
expecting his entry to be after the
manner of Persian Prince. They were
all ready to make their bows to the
ground and many had prepared to kill a
sacrifGial offering TO him as he passed
To their disappointment the Grand
Duke passed them in most unpreten
tious fashion, many failing TO recognize
him as his automobile proceeded along
the designated route. o..
Tho Royal visitor remained three
days. On one morning he reviewed the
cavalry regiments drawn up in the
greatest military parade that UrumiG
has ever seen.

North of the Ancre river, where the
fighting yesterday was also heavy the
British also forced their way through
the entanglements that blocked their
progress and recorded marked gains,
pushing back the German lines for a
distance that is reported at about a
mile. Northeast of Gommecourt,
where the British are advancing the
northern nippers that have been clos.
ing in upon Bapaume, they struck
again heavily yesterday, and drove the
Germans back, with heavy losses. g.
The French reported yesterday that
they are striking in the Champagne
country, the key to the entire long
salient that has for its apex the city of
NoyOn. The most favorable point of
such attack would seem to be the sec.
ton between Rheims and the Argonne
Forest, or, in other words, the Cham.
payne country, where the attack was
made year ago last September. Here,
behind the German front, there is one
section of the southern railroad, sec
ton which runs from Challerange to
Bazancourt. 1t is the ink' which ties
the army of the Crown Prince to that
on his right and makes it possible for
one TO stiffen the other by reinforce.
ments when occasion demands. "
The first effect that would be pro.
duced If this road were severed would
be TO make these two separate and dis.
tinct armies, almost incapable of acting
IN concert on any given proposition
The next point is the isolation of the
German forces in large section of ter,
ritory between the Aisne and the road
from Rumigny (west of Mezieres) to
Laon. They would not, of course, be
isolated entirely from the rest of the
German army. Were this done, il
would not mean capture or destruction
But it does mean that all OF the German
forces in this territory would be unable
to communicate directly with Berlin,
or, which is more to the point, with the
nearest German base, except by means
of the road from Rumigny to Laon,
This would present a serious problem in
transportation that would tax all the
ingenuity of the German command to
solve. .." s.. p. @ f..

For Action Of United States
tAssOoiatsd Pres, BY Federal wireless,

(Associated Press by Federal Wirelessl
WASHINGTON, March IA new
Colombian treaty has been framed and
will soon be submitted to the senate for
ratification, the text Of the new instru.
ment being phrased in such way as to
remove the points of objection found
by a number of the senators to the for.
mer treaty. Under that agreement the
language was construed by some of the
senators as putting the United States
into a position of apologizing to Co.
lombia for an acknowledged transgres.
sion of Colombian rights in the part
taken by the former in the Panamanian
revolution, as a result of which the
Panama Canal Zone was coded to this
country.
The text Of the new treaty provides
that the United States shall pay TO Co,
lombia the sum of $4,000, 900 as dam.
ages for the loss Of the amount previ.
ously agreed upon as the price to be
paid by the United States to Colombia
for the Panama Canal rights On her
part, the Republic of Colombia admits
that there Is no cause for any apology
to be rendered lty the United states for
the part played in the Panamanian re.
volt. Both governments express regret
at the ill.feeling between the nations
that has developed.
], In discussing the new treaty Senator
Lodge declares that the government Of
the United States is yielding to black
mail under the fear that Colombia will
allow Germany to establish submarine
bases along the Colombian coast line.
He wilflSPpose the ratification of the
treaty on this ground.
