Pershing in Trenches.

With the American Army in Franco. Feb. ,11-,(By Associated Press.)- General Pershing has completed a two days inspection of the American sec tor northwest of Foul. In "tin hat" with a gas mask swung over his cheek at the alert position, the American commander walked through the mud and slipping on ice. He dropped down into the dugouts and visited batteries busy hurling "iron rations" at the enemy. *
 In all places the general asked in- numerable questions, especially of the men, with regard to food, how they were and how they liked conditions. All except one cook agreed that they were perfectly satisfied with every thing. The cook said he would like more green stuff"
 The general next appeared in regi- mental headquarters in a dugout in a town which has been riddled by shells. The colonel was not there at the time, and the commander called for all trench and other orders, and. all par perS.
 He sat down and read through every one of them.
 Throughout the inspection tour Gen. erai Pershing limped little his an- kle having been injured slightly few days ago.
