Shell Germans Heavily
Near Montdidier-As-
sist French in Raid.

With the American Force on
French Front, May 10.-tBy The
Associated Press American ba.-
teries bombarded the enemy lines
heavily last night, west of Mont
didier, held by the Germans.
German patrols continue activi-
ties along the front. An American
outpost caught a German trench
dog. The pouch about his neck
contained a message that the Ger
man retaliatory fire was falling
short, and that many of their own
shells were landing in Cantigny.
This confirmed previous informa-
ton reported by American out
posts.
Previous to the American raid
into the village of Apremont. pri-
vate carried out single handed
Thursday afternoon an incursion
into the village and brought back
the report that it was deserted.
This was confirmed by the larger
patrol this morning. The private,
who is a striker" for the lieuten-
ant, who conducted this mornings
patrol, learned what the lieuten-
ant planned to do and decided to
beat him into the village.
Immediately after dinner, Thurs
day, the private slipped out from
behind the American barbed wire
and crawled across No-Man's land
without being seen. He reached
lApremont, crawled about the out
skirts, and returned with the re-
port that only a few Germans were
there. The patrol this morning
encountered two Germans in the
village. They retreated hastily
when the Americans attempted to
capture and signaled for a bar
rage.

German prisoners taken by the
French in Apremont forest this
morning confirm reports of Ameri-

shells recently demolished Flam-
menwerfers brought up for an at

mont. The artillery concentrated
| its fire on this spot after Ger-
man prisoner had reported that an
attack was coming from the direc-
| tion.

Kaiser Sends
Flanders Men
Into Ukraine

London, May 1.-THE situation
in Ukrainia has become so dis
turbing that the Germans have dc
spatched large detachments of Ba-
varian cavalry from Flanders on
the way TO Ukraenia, the CORE
spQudent at Amsterdam Cf the Ex-
change Telegraph company re-
ports.
Word that fighting is TO be re-
sumed in ukrainia has been re-
ceiyed at Liege, Belgium, accord
ing to the dispatch. The Bavarian
cavalry detachments are said to
have arrived at that city.
Stockholm, May Lithuanian
newspapers which are reaching
Stockholm contain articles show
ing how the German methods in
Ukraine have evoked opposition and
hatred in all quarters 1t is diff
cult to discover evidence of any
prO-German party whatever. Even
the new government has among its
members some prominent White
Russians, who are known to be
strongly opposed to German poll
cies.
One newspaper article describes
the disarming of what is known as
the Ukranian Blue Guard, in which
a strong anti-German spirit had be
come manifest. The minister of
war told the rada the government
protested against the brutal meth
DDS marking the arrest of members
of the chamber Another article
reports the first division of the
Ukranian army stationed at KOvel
had been disarmed by the Germans
because of anti-German feeling
among the troops.
Russia has been suddenly faced
with events that may again change
the political outlook, the PetrOgrad
correspondent of the Daily Express
telegraphs. Germany. he says, has
apparently found that economic do
minion over Russian territory is in
sufficient and is seeking military
occupation.
An extra session of the Bolshevik
government council has been held
in PetrOgrad Premier Lenine's
speech at this meeting was extreme
~ pessimistic, the correspondent
reports.
According to the newspaper Pod

capital to Mimi -NOvgorod, was
broached, as was the subject of i'm

defense of Moscow against possible

French statistics on the submarine
warfare received here in a dis
patch from France show that total
losses of allied and neutral ships,
including accidents at sea, were ap-

In April last year 634,685 gross

figures are 3S1 .631 Submarine at
tacks are now more, costly for the
enemy. owing TO the fact that at
tacks are chiefly made with tor
ped0es instead OF gunfire, as was
the case before merchant ships
were armed.
Attention also is called TO the
fact that each time the Germans
make an offensive on land they
make a corresponding effort with
submarines Thus during the sec
