The choice of General de Maud'huy
as Governor of the stronghold Of Lor-
raine is the realization of a lifelong
hope. General de Maud'huy was born in
the city which he is now to rule and
which his family left after the debacle
of 1870. refusing TO accept the German
yoke. From his childhood It was the
dream of de Maud'huy to regain Metz
for France.
Graduated from the military acad-
einy of st. Cyr Maud'huy found ad-
vancement In the army diff,cult because
his family took n leading part In cleri-
cal circles. When the great war started
he was merely in command of a re-
serve brigade.
General de Maud'huy, however, was
possessed of one idea--to fight In Lor-
raine. He succeeded in effecting his
transfer to another command and fought
in a series of battles against the army
of the German Crown Prince. He car
ried out his task SO we'll that when the
great retreat was ordered from the
Meuse. De Maud'huy was ono Of the gen.
erals instructed by Joffre to hold out
one day longer so as to show the Ger
mans they would have no easy walk
through France

presence will operate to give unity of
purpose to liberal or radical element In
the conference and to chasten the COLI
Servative element. One way or other
being personally present and acting IN
combination with one or the other, or
with each one in turn, he will best get

 SHOT GUN WARP FARE
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

AMSTERDAM, Sept. 29.-Germany, through the Swiss legation, has sent an ultimatum to the government of the United States that if no satisfac tory answer is forthcoming on Oc tober first, to the German protest about the use of shotguns by Ameri- can soldiers, 'reprisals will be taken"
 A semi official telegram from Der lin gives the following additional de- tails of the note:
 Prom prisoners captured during a skirmish between patrols on July 2, a repeating shot gun was taken. The prisoners. who belonged to American infantry regiment number S07 of the 77th division, stated their patrol pos sessed three such guns. each loaded with six cartridges and each cartridge containing nine shots of size co.
 Another shot gun was captured on September II from the third infantry regiment of the fifth American divi- sion.
 The use of such weapons is forbid : den by The Hague convention as caus- ing unnecessary suffering. The Ger man government protests energetcal- ly and expects from the United States government that steps Will pc ldheh immediately to discontinue the em- ployment of shot guns.
 Tt is pointed out 10 the govern ment of the United States that a prisoner on whom a shot gun or shot gun ammunition is found forfeits his life"
 WASHINGTON. Sept. 29.-The Ger man protest against the use of sho' guns by American troops has been re ceived at the state department and ar answer soon will be dispatched.
 Shot guns are used by American troops, it was said today. only as au- thorized by the accepted rules of war They are employed in general police work and in guarding prisoners, beins more desirable for such work than the high powered army rifle because tho firing of the latter might result in the death or injury of persons it was no intended to bit.
 Germany's threat of reprisals is no causing any anxiety among American officials The Americans hold 100 Ger man prisoners to every ten American! in enemy prison camps.
