Inability of Germany to
Furnish Wheat Makes
Acceptance Imperative.
NO TROOPS WILL BE
SHIPPED ON VESSELS
Acceptance of Demand
Based on Certain Condi-
tions Dutch Impose.

The Hague, Monday, March
1o.-Holland has accepted, with
certain conditions, the Anglo
American. demand regarding
Dutch shipping. This was an
nounced in the second chamber
to-day by DR.. Loudon, the for
algn minister, who added that
Holland could not go further
and was awaiting the Anglo
American reply to its latest
communication. The minister's
declaration which will be dis
cussed by the chamber on Tues
day, said:
'The German government, having
declared its inability to furnish 100 O00
tons OF wheat in two months the
Dutch government finds itself COM
PEELED to accept the demand for sail
ing Dutch ships through the danger
zone which the American and British
government had attached to the de-
livery on April Is of 100000 tons Of
wheat"
DR.. Louden added, however, that
the assent of the Dutch government
was based on conditions. Included
among these conditions were the
claims that the Allied governments
should guarantee that no troops or
war materials be transported on the
ships and that vessels destroyed be
replaced by others after the war. An
other condition was that bunker coal
necessary for transportation of mer-
chandise to Holland ought to be fur
niShed to Dutch ships
Dr. Houdon explained the basis on
which Holland was to be supplied
with 100000 tons of grain by the as
soci9 ID government, when the Allies
sudG sprang the plan that the re-
leased Dutch ships were to be used in
the danger zone.
"It was laid down by the Dutch
government as a basic condition for
the arrangement and accepted by the
associated governments" continued
the foreign minister, that the Dutch
ships be kept out of the danger zone.
| I will refrain from discussing the
reasons that may have led to the new
demand, but it's justice the Neither
lands government cannot admit.
Neither does it admit the assumption,
prevalent in certain quarters, that
when a belligerent'S need of tonnage
becomes pressing, neutral ships can
be forced en- bloc to enter its SER
vice"

KIRK'S INJURY
NOT SEVERE AS
FIRST THOUGHT

Friends of William P. Kirk and his
sister, Mrs. N. D. Sperry, will be glad
to learn that the injuries they sus-
tained in an automobile accident
shortly after - o'clock last night, are
not as serious as was at first reported.
Both were taken to st. Vincent hos
pital, where it was thought Kirk, had
fractured hip and Mrs. Sperry a
fractured skull, but upon X-Ray ex-
animation it was found that the in
juries were slight and the patients will
recover in a short while.
William Kirk was found to have
sustained a fracture of two ribs and
numerous contusions about the body.
Mrs Sperry suffered from a severe
laceration of the scalp. which, how
ever, is not dangerous Miss L. NJ.
Reynolds, of 54 Washington avenue,
and John D. Sullivan of New Haven
also passengers in the car, escaped
with a few minor bruises and severe
shock.
The accident happened shortly after
midnight when the machine in which

ministration and recent Democratic
candidate for mayor was riding skid
ded as it turned out of Cannon street
i in Fairfield avenue, struck a pole, and
overturned.

SAYS BRIDE WAS
|. LURED AWAY BY
ANOTHER WOMAN

Charles Green, of 146 Jones ave-
nue., complained to the police today
that his 17-year-old bride left home
in company with another woman on
the afternoon of March Is, to attend
a matinee and that he has not seen
or heard from her since. He is posi-
tive she has been stolen away from
her home and implored the help OF
Detective Captain E. o. Cronan to
bring her back to her home again.
Green could not give any descrip-
ton of the woman with whom his
young wife left her home, but said he
knew she must have had evil inten-
tions in Turing his spouse away from
his fireside with invitations to the
theatre and other pleasures that
women usually fall victim to.
He protested that his wife had
shown nothing but contentment and
happiness in his home since they were
married a short while ago. He feels
sure that the only way in which she
could be induced to leave him would
be by the use of force.
Captain Cronan assigned one of hi:
men to the case and assured tht
broken hearted husband that the,
would have word from the missing
spouse within the next few days.

blown up a battery Of mine
throwers, one of which a few
days ago obtained a direct hit
on a dugout in which were a
number Of American soldiers,
most of them of Irish descent.
The battery had been causing a
great deal of trouble for several days,
and the Americans were determined
to put it out of action. 1t was located
after considerable trouble, and the
artillery concentrated high explosives
on it.
A patrol of "a men, half Americans

tained no prisoners.
Yesterday extraordinary artillery
activity developed in the Chemin des
Danes sector, where some troops from
New England are in training. The
enemy began a gas bombardment late
Saturday night and continued it until
yesterday. A vigorous reply was made
by both American and French bat
teries, which gave the Germans about
four times as much as they sent over.
Massachusetts, troops bore the brunt
of a part of the bombardment. Six
thousand shells were fired yesterday
from the sector in which the Ameri-
cans are stationed, a large portion of
them being gas shells.
Citation of three more American
soldiers, carrying with it the French

on the Luneville sector six officers, six
sergeants and two privates were re-
ceiving the war cross at an impress

Hartford, March 19-William B.
Bassett, who has been active in the
matter of the locating of an ordnance
bureau and has been endeavoring to
induce the authorities of the war de-

Certain ordnance and munitions
work has been done through Wash
ington since the country entered into

growth that about a month ago the
