Huns Use Two Mystery Guns.

Paris, March 26.-Twenty-four shells
reached Paris on Saturday and twenty
seven Sunday. The interval between
shots was reduced from fifteen or
twenty minutes on Saturday to an av-
erage of nine minutes Sunday. On two
occasions there was an interval of only
one or two minutes. Shells fell at 9:15
and 9:16 O'Clock and at 9:45 and 9:47.
This was accepted as confirming the
theory that at least two guns were fir
ing. The time of flight of the shells
is estimated at ten minutes at the
least; the curve traversed at 120 miles,
and the maximum height attained at
fifteen miles.

Moscow, March 2S.-Official reports
say that Nikolayev Kherson and Una
menka, all southern Ukrainian cities,
have been recaptured from the Aus
trians by Red Guards and armed CIV
ilians. (The recapture of Kherson
and Nikolayev was reported in press
dispatches from Petrograd.) The pop
ulation of Kherson organized and ex-
PEELED the invaders. A heavy artillery
bombardment is reported in connec-
tion with the recapture of Nikolayev
Demands not set forth by the Germans
in the peace treaty with Ukraine are
creating disorder there. The latest of
these demands is that Ukraine surren-
der S5 per cent of it's grain and all the
sugar from its ia refineries except
that needed for local consumption.
The Ukrainian Rada has protested
against this.
Peasants at Neval, fifty-four miles
north of Vitebsk, organized to resist
the German food acquisitions. They
are reported to have killed eighty Ger
man soldiers.
German troops are constantly NOV
ing eastward through Kiev. Bread
stuffs are being exported from Kiev
in large quantities, and consequently
there is an acute shortage.
The German commander at Kiev re-
quested the bankers there to float a
loan of 100000 rubles. The bank
ers declined to do so.

Ottawa, March 2S.-British cavalry
has been in action and achieved a
brilliant victory, according to a dis
patch from the Reuter- correspondent
at British headquarters, received here.
The strength of the great German
offensive in France apparently is fast
diminishing On the seventh day of
the Titanic battle there were strong in
dications that the enemy was feeling
materially the strain he had under
greatly impaired through hard usage.
While the town of Albert has been
captured from the British, and west
of Roye the French have been COM
PEELED to give ground in the face of
greatly superior numbers, the British
have repulsed heavy attacks, both
north and south of the Somme, and
also driven back across the Ancre
river the Germans who forded the
stream Wednesday.
The fighting still continues of a san
culinary character on all these sectors,
but everywhere the British and French
are holding the enemy. Especially Sc
we're has been the fighting west of AL
bert, where the Germans, in an en-
deavor to debouch westward, were re-
pulsed by Field Marshal Haig's men
with the heaviest casualties.
The British gains between the
Somme and Ancre regions are repre-
sented by the recapture of the town
of Morlancourt and Chipilly. South of
the Somme they have advanced to
Proyart, which lies to the south Of
Bray.
1t is estimated that in the great at
tacks delivered in mass formation
more than 100000 of the nearly mil
tion men the Germans threw into
the fray are dead, wounded or in the
hands of their foes.
About twenty-five miles represents
the greatest point of penetration made
at any place by the enemy in his ad-
vance, and on the northern and south
ern ends of the big salient he has left
his TANKS dangerously open to coun-
ter attacks, which, If successful, pos
sibly might result in a retreat greater
than the 1916 retrograde movement of
Won Hindenburg and nullify in its en-
tirety the drive that has been accom-
plished
1t is not improbable that British and
French reserves, and possibly Ameri-
can troops, known to be behind the
battle front, soon will be thrown
against the weakened enemy.

Merchantmen Sunk by u-eoats.

London, March Submarines and
mines have increased their weekly
toll of British shipping. The ad-
miralty's report shows that in the last
week twenty-eight merchantmen were
sunk, sixteen of the vessels being
1000 tons or over and twelve under
that tonnage. The French lost six
ships and the Italians three steamers
and two sailing vessels.

ard Wood brought from France to the

Notwithstanding the strength of the
German drive, nowhere has the Brit
ish or French front, along the latter
of which American troops have given
good account of their ability as fight
ers, been even dented. Ground has
been given, it is true, but so skillfully
and with luch precision of movement,
that from north to south a surveyor
scarcely could have worked out more
even line.
Just who is in command OF the Ger
man forces seems to be somewhat in
doubt. Late dispatches report that
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg has
been in Dvinsk, in the Russian thea
ter, and German war correspondents
assert that General Won Ludendorff
not only planned the offensive, but
was on the ground last Friday person
ally to control the attacks.
London, March 27.--The battle con-
tinues on the whole front south of the
Somme river, Field Marshall Haig re-
ported from the war zone in France.
The Germans have also launched new
attacks around Chaulnes.
1t is officially reported that seventy
German divisions have taken rirt in
the fighting and that troops have
been moved from every part of the
western battle front to reinforce the
armies which have been forcing the
British to fall back. Observers at the
front say that German losses have
been frightful, estimated at 450,0 900 in
the six-day drive and that the enemy
has lost from 10 to 20 per cent of his
men, by the most conservative esti-
mates.
/ Paris, March 27.-The French troops
cooperating with the British south of
st. Quentin have taken up strong posi-
tions on the left bank of the Disc,
above Noyon, where they are holding
the Germans, according to the war Of
flee announcement. The text of the
statement reads: Our troops are
holding solidly to their positions on
the left bank of tho Disc before No
yon. The fighting continues with un-
diminished violence along the front
comprising Braye-Sur-Somme Chaul-
nes, Roye and Noyon."
After six days of terrific fight
inG, the German offensive in
France is beginning to show signs of
losing it's momentum. The progress
of the enemy has materially slackened
and the form of the dent made in the
allied line west of Cambria has begun
to resemble the familiar wedge-like
salient instead of the broad,
straight forward movement of an Of
fensive which carries all before 1t.
At it's apex this wedge has gone be-
yond Albert to the south of that place
and is to the westward of the old al
lied line as it stood year ago when
Won Hindenburg began his strategic
retreat" From this point the line
runs off to the northeast at a gentle
angle, with the line to the south run
ming back until it reaches the -Oise
river.
In spite of the tremendous exertions
and terrible losses, the German efforts
to widen the tip of this salient were
defeated on Tuesday. The British lines
have stood firm to the north and have
forced the Germant to turn southwark
to the point of least resistance.
Official statements issued at Lon
don confirm the report from Berlin
that American forces are engaged in

President Wilson has not in the
past hesitated to veto measures that
threatened delay in adjournment of
Congress. The question he will natur-
ally consider is whether injustice is
being done; whether clerks are being
unfairly Disseminated against II
there is injustice then the personal
desire Of Congress to get away from
Washington must be subordinated to
the demands OF Justice.
Opinion was expressed by some Of
hcials today that the amendment may
axe away the summer lf-holidays,
inasmuch as II specifically provides
that during the period OF the exist
ing war "the minimum DAILY hours
of labor required of all clerks" shall
be eight
Well informed officials, though,
pointed out that the amendment does
not change the original law fixing
seven hours as a days work except
on days declared public holidays by

disputed that the President has ex-
ecutive authority to grant holidays

The Presidents predicament Is this:
He knows the feeling in Congress

that adjournment for a day or so but
there would be no attempt to pass the

An alternative to a possible veto
might be a promise by Congressional
