 IS TAKEN IN FRONT
Von Hindenburg's Infantry Making No Effort to Go Forward at Any
 Point
iyy Associated Press


 Still another day has passed without the Germans renew ing their offensive ill Flanders or Picardy. Nowhere have the infantry operations by either side on these battle fronts, or, for that matter, in any ot the numerous theatres of the war risen in importance above pa trol engagements.
 North of Kemmel, where the Ger mans on Tuesday gained footing on Hill A, one of the bloodiest sectors in the western front, the lost vantage points have been retrieved through the persistent counter attacks of the French, who succeeded in expelling the enemy from the shell holes along the slopes to which he had been tenacious ly holding. Not alone were the Ger mans forced to recede, but the French advanced their line and also took prls-
  oners.
 Likewise south of Hailles in the Amiens region, the French have taken another bite into the Ger man line and successfully wnrded off German counter attack launched in an endcavor to re- capture the lost ground. The Ger mans in these maneuvers suffered heavy casualties and also lost men made prisoners. Throughout Wednesday, the British were left severely alone by the German i'm fantry.
 Although the enemy is keeping his infantry to their trenches he continues to use his artillery viz orousIy against salient positions held by the British and French all along the front, especially against Field Marshal HniE's forces south of Albert, and against the French north of kemmeI. The French north of Montdidier and along the curve in the battle front between Montdidier and Noyon also have been under an intensive fire from the German guns.
 American ayiators on the battle front in the Toui sector con- tinuing to perform notable deeds of bravery in the air against the enemy fliers. Wednesday wit messed three movc planes in this region brought to earth ny Amer ican airmen, all of them having been shot down. The French, in recognition of the bravery of the Americans in the aerial combats, decorated five of them with the French war cross.
 The meeting between the Gcr- man md Austrian Emperors mt German grand hcadGunrters seem ingIy has been productive of strengthening of the relations be- tween Germany and the dual mon archy. which 1t had been reported unofficialiy were somewhat strained. After parting Emperor William and Emperor Charles ex- changed messages of felicitation over the accord arrived nt in their discussions and expressive of deep mutual friendship. Ii is asserted that the Emperors not only reached m agreement on the solution of the question of eastern bdeder states, but that they also selected monarchs for Lithuania, Courland.

Investigation in New York Is Bringing Out Some Startling Facts of
 Intrigue

New York, May b. Plans had been made i'll 1914, for a revolution of Germans in the United States in case this country should be drawn into the European war, according to testimony today at the state attorney generals investiga- tlon of reports of hidden rlu- nitions.
 Ivan Norodny, vice president of the Russian-American Asiatic corpora tion, who admitted he had sympa- thized with Russian revolutionists be- fore the Emperor was overthrown, at tributed the revelation of plans of up- rising in the United States to Baron Won Gersdorff, friend of the German crown prince and a former agent in Mexico, who was interned after the United States entered the war.
 GERMAN RIFLE CLUBS
 At dinner at a New York hotel in the fall of 1914, Norodny said he met Won Gersdorff. Captain Hans Taus- cher, former Krupp agent in the Uni ted States. and another German, whom was the manager of Mime. Gadski, quoted Won Gersdorff as saying;
 The Scheutzenverein German rifle clubs, have arms in this country and in case of trouble with the United States they will side with Germany. The rifles have been coming from Ger many and in case of war, the Ger mans here will assist the l. w. w.. and the socialists"
 WANTED RUSSIAN REVOLT
 Both Von Gersdorff ard Tauscher told Norodny, the latter testified, that the autocracy of Russia ought to be overthrown and Von Gersdorff offered to supply Norodny with arms free so that revolutionists in Russia could seize the government and make a sep arate peace with Germany.
 Norodny testified that he rejected this plan from patriotic motives.
 Previous to this conversation. he said, ne had been trying to buy rifles from Tauscher for the Russian army, but after being shown a quantity ot arms in a New Jersey storehouse gave up the idea because he realized that he was dealing with an enemy Of his country and the arms, if purchased, might be sunk by the Germans on the way to Russia
 The Germans lie said, did not seem anxious to continue negotiations un- less for the purpose of folnenting a revolution.
 RIFLES STILL UNPLACED
 The efforts of Deputy Attorney General Becker to learn the names of the owners of 100000 Mauser rifles and LOGO, 900, 900 cartridges which vari- ous brokers had testified were of- fered for sale in New York by Gus tav Lussing, German born American citizen, proved futile when Lussing took the stand He denied the testi- monv of various witnesses that he had represented himself as the agent af the owners MT. Becker announced that he would be recalled to the stand at the resumption of the investiga- ton. May a2-

General.
 This announcement overshadowed in in terest another development which created a great stir at the capitol. In a letter to Senator Martin. the democratic leader, the President earlier in the day had em- phaticaily reiterated his opposition to the phrasing of a pending resolution author izing another inquiry by the Senate mill tary committee into aviation and other phases of war preparations. He declared he would regard the passage of such resolution as vote of want of confi- dence in the administra Son and virtually as an attempt to take over the conduct of the war.
 OF MUCH IMPORTANCE Z In designating former Justice Hughes, whose record in the New York insurance investigation is well remembered, the President felt the department of Jus- tice's investigation was of the very great est importance. that if any persons were found to be guilty they might be prose- cuted vigorously and promptly, and that the regulations of those attacked might be protected if the charges were found to be groundess.
 LETTER TO MARTIN The letter to Senator Martin was the subject of heated discussion. senator Chamberlain of Oregon. who introduced the resolution of inquiry called before the Senate expenditures committee con sidering it. declared there was no inten- tion of investigating the conduct of the war and that the resolution was worded as it was only to give the military com mittee, of which he is chairman, author ity to resume it's previous investigations The senator also issued statement, in which he explained that no charges had been made against Major General Squier or Rear Admiral Taylor, army and navy members of the aircraft board.
 The expenditures committee by a vote of three to two. amended the rcs- olution by striking out reference to the conduct of the war and adding a proviso specifically limited the scope of the committees activities. It the Senate refuses to adopt the resolu. 10 n as amended, Senator Chamberlain iuui- |cated he would drop the investisa- tions planned.
