SANK TWICE The
new TONNAGE
Germans Destroyed More
Shipping Than U. S. and
England Built in II

Washington, Feb. l3-Sbip tan
aage sunk by submarines in 1917 was
nearly three times as great as the to-
tai production in the United States
and Great Britain during that year.
This was disclosed by the an
nouneement of Andrew Bonar Law,
chancellor Of the eXehequer inthe
British house of commons, that Great
Britain produced only /. 1863, 474 tons
of shipping last year The output IA
the United States was .a0l, ,223 tons,
making total combined tonnage Of
2,O64, ,697. While snkingsby subma-
rines last year generally arereckoned
at 100000 tons.
While complete figures on oonstruc-
ton in Japan. Italy. France aud other
nations in 1917 are not yet available,
officials here do not believe their ag-
gregate equalled the total OF the Unit
ed States. II that is the case. sub
marine sinkings more than doubled
all new tonnage produced.
Both American and British officials
expect very different report in 1918.

Emperor Admits That He
Is Sick and Tired Of
War and Fighting.
AMERICAN GUNNERS BUSY
Are Helping The French in
The Champagne
Region.

On the battle front in France the
activity between the British and
French and the Germans has as
sumed somewhat violent proportions
at least on two sectors with the forces
Of Field Marshal Haig and General
Petain the aggreSsors. Probably the
heaviest encounter was in the Cham
pagne region, where aided by
American batteries which gave the
French very effective support. the
the French have captured and organ
lzed German trenches southwest Of
the Butte Du Mesnil. The German
official communication admits the loss
Of this ground.
North Of Lens the famous coal
mining region, the British and Ger
mans again have met in a sharp en-
counter, but no details Of It have yet
come through. The artillery activity
continues heavy on numerous sec
tors from Flanders TO the Swiss
border.
The mention Of American artillery
as being engaged with the French
against the Germans in the Cham
payne is the first indication that
United States forces were nthe battle
line elsewhere than east Of 81. Mihiel
which is miles distant from the Cham
pagne front The presumption is that
the American gunners are in training
with the French preparatory to join
ing their comrades in their own sector.
Unofficial dispatches still state that
in German and Austrian official circles
there is very considerable distrust Of
the bOlshevik leaders in Russia and
that preparations even are in the max,
ing for stemming a surprise maneuver
on the east front. One Bayarian news
paper asserts that the final conference
between the bolshevski and German
and Austrian delegates at Brest-Li-
tovsk ended ina violent rupture which
bore oil the seeds Of a futive conflict.
In manifesto to his subjects deal
ing with the peace effected with the
Ukraine, the Austrian emperor reiter-
ates his desire for an early general
peace.
I'm common with my hard tried
people, - says the emperor. 81 trust
that after the tirst conclusion II peace
which is so gratifying an event !or Us.
a general peace soon will be grant d

Court Martial Finds Him Gull
ty Of Spending Money to
Weaken frances War.
U. S. FURNISHED EVIDENCE
Trial Of Ex-Premier Caillaux
for Treason to the Tri-
Color Is Expected.

Paris, Feb. 14.-Without the slight
est tremor Bolo Pasha, convicted OF
high treason, heard Colonel Voyer,
president Of the court martial. pro-
nouuce sentence Of death upon him
yesterday amid an impressive silence
In the court room.
He is the first man Of the coterie Of
French and other propagandists
favorable to Germany, who by their
Vaccinations sought TO disrupt the
soldiers and populace OF France and
bring about a separate peace between
the republic and the Teutonic allies.
Through lavish expenditure OF
German money Bolo aided IN a con-
spiracy, which in some instances met
with success, to corrupt French
political leaders and TO subsidiZe the
French press into expression OF the
idea that Germany was invincible at
arms and that France should take
time by the forelock and cease her
military activities against her enemies
in order to save herself vanquist :
ment.
The tenacles Of the conspiracy ex-
tended even 10 the United States.
Here money was transferred to Bo-
loIhrough the intermediary Of Count
Won Bernstorff, the German smbas-
sador to this country, and II was
mainly upon evidence of the opera
tons of Bolo and several OF his fol-
lowers in the United States that Bolo
was convicted.
Political regulations il France have
been blighted as result of the con-
spiracy and several additional persons
are under arrest and doubtless soon
will be court martipled. Notable a
mong these men is Joseph Caillaux,
a former prime minister OF the Re

had been subscribed on the face OF
returns received at headquarters
here tonight at the end OF the third
day OF the weeks campaign. The

Necessity for those chapters,
towns and states which have over
subscribed to continue their efforts
was emphasized In n statement sent
to war fund managers by Henry p.
Dawson. chairman OF the Red Cross
war council.
MIR. Dawson called attention to
the fact that the arrangements for
the campaign were made early In
the year before the recent German
drives In Picardy and Flanders, and
that changed conditions called for
increased funds.
None of the divisions yet have
reached it's quota. but many cities
