GERMAN GAS BOMBS LOCATED AND THEN
 BLOWN UP BY GUNS
Republican A. P. Leased Wire]

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, Tuesday, March 12-(By the Associated PresS.) - The American forces northwest of Tuol carried out an important raid on the German lines Monday night. The artillery prepara- ton lasted forty-five minutes and the Americans entered the German de- lenses as far as the second line. They found a number of German dead from shell fire and some of those who were retreating were shot down.
 The American pioneers accompany ing the infantry blew up enemy dug outs.-No prisoners were taken, chiefly because of the fact that the Germans did not remain to fight, but ran pre- cipitately at the approach of the Amer jeans. All the Americans returned to their own lines and considerable infor nation was secured.
 The American artillery last night completely obliterated a German posi- ton in which two hundred gas projec- tors had been set up ready for a gas attack. The projectors were discovered late yesterday in a photograph taken from high in the air
 As soon as they were definitely To- cated there was a great concentration of American artillery fire, and the projectors and the entire position were destroyed. In the last gas attack upon American troops only 75 projectors were used. The new attack, therefore, had been planned on a much more ex- tensive scale.

 WASHINGTON, March 13.-Amer- ica's first fighting seaplane equipped with Liberty motors has been tried out and accepted, it was learned tonight, and a number of the craft now are be- ing delivered for the use of the naval air service. They are the advance guard of a big fleet which will be added to the forces engaged in sub- marines hunting in the war zone.
 A second type of fighting plane for the American army known as the Bris- tol model also have reached the pro- duction stage and a considerable num- Der will become available during the present month. Still another type a two-seated machine is being manu- factured.
 Have Two Liberty Motors
 Construction details of these planes never have been published. It is known, however. that the seaplanes are substantially similar to the British fly ing boats and are equipped with two Liberty motors, which provide approxi- mately 700 horse power to drive the ship. This is understood to be much in excess of the power used in similar British craft and their performance is expected to be proportionately better.
 In this connection it was learned that engineers of the aircraft board have overcome the last minor defect of the Liberty motors, having to do with the fabrication system. A number of mot ors taken haphazard from the quan- tity production supply have been op- erated continuously for many hours without any trouble developing.
 Ready in Quantity Soon
 OfflclalS in close touch with progress belng made on production of fighting planes in this country are satisfied that the output will tax shipping facilities before July, when delivery in quanff. ties in France has been scheduled Already a problem of caring for the planes on the other side is one tc which General Pershing's staff is giv- | ing serious thought.
 Those produced in the United State. are in addition to the fighting aviation equipment to be provided under con. tract through the French .and British government. There are indications that these foreign contracts also are not up to the original schedule oi | delivery

RESERV|STS TRAVEL

 FROM REACHED SHIP

AN ATLANTIC FORT, March 13.- Thirty naval reservists of a party of IT had an exciting adventure today when they were landed by means of the brooches buoy from the Mer- chants and Miners Transportation company's steamer Kershaw, which had pushed her nose in between two sandbars and stuck, off the coast near here during a heavy fog. The over ST reservists and two women and two children, who comprised the passenger list, were taken off the steamer by tugs and patrol boats.
 The Kershaw, with a crew of about 40 men sticking to their posts, was still hard in the sand tonight and had about seven feet of water in her hold. The sea was calm and the vessel was in no immediate danger. The hope was expressed that after the leaks in her bottom
 been stopped, the vessel could be pulled off with the high tide tomor- row morning.

THE HAGUE. March 13.-The for elgn minister, Dr. Loudon, presented 10 the states general today a note explaining the position of the nego- nations with the allies for an eco nomlc arrangement. The minister sad that since the note was drafted ne had received information of the allied governments desire to with draw their promise to accept the Dutch condition that vessels sailing in the interest of the allied govern ments should not be employed in the danger zone.
 The note states that America has agreed to furnish 100000 tons Of wheat to Holland before the conclu- sion of a definite arrangement. on condition that Holland immediately place at the disposal of the allies half a million tons of shipping, as if definite arrangement already ex- lsted. The Dutch government is in quiring as to whether it is possible to enter into such a transaction and hopes speedily to arrive at a decision. Plan Abandoned?
 WASHINGTON, March 13.-Several months ago representatives of the
 United States and the Dutch com- mercial commission discussed in Lon don proposed agreement under which the Netherlands would turn
 over 100000 tons of shipping for
 the use of the allies on trade routes outside of the danger zone in return for the release of food exports from America.
 The commissioners returned to The Hague and some vessels were sent into the South American trade. No agreement was perfected, however, | and apparently the negotiations were abandoned.

USE IF GRAIN FUR
 BREWING TAKEN UP
 BYHOUSE COMMONS
Republican A. P. Leased Wire1


 LONDON. Tuesday, March 12. - Strong criticism of the governments policy toward the continued use of grain for brewing and malting was evoked in the debate in the house of commons today. The criticisms were, based on the enormous tonnage em- ployed by the traffic, the small profit to the government from the expenditure, and the waste of cereals at a time when there is a possibility of short age of grain for human consumption. Critics pointed out that the opposition is no longer confined to temperance advocates, but is spreading to the gen. eral public. The opinion was expressed that the continued growth of the traf- fife under existing circumstances is fraught with possible peril to the country.
 Right Hon. Litchfield Jones ridiculed the idea that if the British workmen were frankly told that it was necessary to prohibit brewing in the national in- terest they would oppose such meas ures or strike.
 Richard Burning Holt said the ques- tion was whether it would not be better to employ tonnage to secure cotton for ] the Lancashire spinners, rather than materials for brewing. Sidney Robin son, who referred to Herbert c. Hoov- 1 CTS efforts to secure every bushel of barley for food, asked for beer ration ing and was certain the workers would prise to such demand on their patriot ism with enthusiasm.
 John Robert Clynes, parliamentary secretary to the food control depart ment, in the course of his reply ex- pressed the opinion that to enforce tee- totalism would not make any contribu- tion to winning the war. He said the working classes already had made l great sacrifices and are still carrying their full share of sorrow and he hoped | the government would not be pressed further on this matter. If it ever be- comes a question of choosing between
 bread and beer, he said, there will be
 no hesitation on the part of the gov
 ernment, but that time has not yet

WASHINGTON, March 13.-Accord- ing to a dispatch today from Zurich, the German socialist newspaper Vor- waerts says the scandal in Germany connected with graft at the Daimler munitions factories, which the budget commission of the reichstag is investi- gating, has caused veritable panic in the Berlin stock exchange. The Daimler stock fell two-thirds of it's value, a large number of other war stocks suffering similar shrinkage, due to popular belief that the greater part of the war factories have been guilty of grating and will be prosecuted by the German treasury.

Under the resolu- ton General Black would be permitted to keep the house, if he desired, until one year after the war, paying $100 a month, minus repairs and expenses.
