BY GERMANS
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Jan 10.-Another proof Of
the German disregard of promises and
agreements has been furnished in the
British advance toward Cambria.
Some time ago Germany signed a sol
emn agreement with Great Britain
providing that no prisoners of war
would be employed within 10 miles of
the front line. But two Russian pris-
oners were found by the British in
German dugout at Anneux, which was
barely four miles from the lines az
they lay at the opening of the Cam
brai attack. Moreover, these Russians
had seen a party of 300 to 400 British
prisoners at work near Cambria,
about eight miles from the old front
lines.
The Russians told a pitiful story Of
ill treatment and suffering. They had
to subsist, under German regulations,
on half-a-pound of bread and some
grass soup daily. AS punishment for
minor offenses they were strung UT
to poles with their feet just touching
the ground. Men were bayonetted or

Gently when the value of the actual
silver in the peso reached 20 per cent
above the nominal value while the
bullion value of subsidiary silver coins
was dangerously near the face value.
The bill also provides for the issue
by the government of paper notes of
the value of one peso. The lowest
denomination bill heretofore issued
by the government is of two pesos.
