Have been established in the trenches
communicating with the battle line
which American boys in France have
Just taken over, it was announced here
by the National War Work Council OF
the Y. M. G. A. At these stations
along the way to the front the Sam
mics are able to procure hot coffee or
chocolate and other edibles as well as
to mail letters to the folks back home.
Often, it is said, the Y. M. G. A. sec
rotary is the last man to bid the boys
$50 long" and the first to greet them
or dress their wounds when they come
out.
The Y. M. G. A. has been charged
by both the French and American arm
les with the conduct Of the entire can
teen system in France.

All exceptions to the food admins
tration rule requiring the purchase Of
an equal amount of substitutes with
each purchase of wheat -four have
been revoked by the food administra-
ton because of the necessity of con-
serving wheat for the allies. The en-
tire country is thus put on parity in
regard to buying wheat flour. Excep-
items to the rule had been allowed in
certain localities where substitutes
are little known and hard to obtain.
Increased demands for breadstuffs by
the allies had been announced some
time previously, and this order is the
result.
German submarines did not sink
single Italian ship during the week
ending March 2.
In the week ending March 2 344
merchant ships of every nationality
representing total tonnage of 1885,
260 entered port.
Germany has negotiated a peace
treaty with the republic of Finland
by which the latter agrees not to
cede ANY territory or grant terrif
toria1 rights without the consent OF
Germany, which, in consideration for
this concession, covenants to exert
her influence to secure recognition Of
the Finnish government from other
nations.
Legislation enabling the government
to place in American hands perma-
nently many great German CONNER
cial and industrial concerns in this
country, which have been instruments
in spreading the grip Of German kul-
tur, has been favorably reported in
the senate by the appropriations COM
mittee. It is in the form of an amend
ment to the pending urgent deficiency
bill empowering the alien property
custodian to sell any enemy property
taken over by his office.

LONDON HAS NEW CRIMINAL
He Gives Poisoned Candy to the "om-
an Conductors of the Mo-
torbuSes.

London.-This city has new kind
of criminal. He will take rank with
the s'ink squirter" of New York and
possibly "Jack the PEPPER" This new
est brand of criminal has been CIV
ing poisoned candy to woman conduc-
tors of 1notorbuses. He is described
as middle aged, of gentlemanly appear
ance and suave speech.
Several of his victims have been
taken unconscious to hospitals, but all
have recovered. At least dozen young
women have received poisoned candy
from him and without exception they
have been taken violently i'll soon aft
er eating it.
His custom is to wait until he is the
only passenger in the bus and then to
open a box of chocolates and invite
the conductor to help herself. Usu-
ally the woman says she will, because
candy is scarce and costly in London
and the conductors do not make hand
some wages. He usually asks the in
tended victim to take as much as she
wishes, and a moment or two after
ward leaves the bus.
All the women say they could 1dent1-
fly him. The police are making dill
gent search for him, but their search
does not prevent him from carrying on
his operations. There are thousands
of motorbuses in London, and the field
Of operations is therefore large.

Passengers Arriving in United
States Give Thrilling Ac-
counts of Attack.
FAMOUS BUILDINGS WRECKED
Bombs Tore Up Streets During Two
Hour Siege in InI<y Darkness
Death Toll 245-Drop Nine
Tons Of Explosives.

An Atlantic Port.-Thril1ing eye
witness accounts of one of the tremen-
dous German air raids on Paris, were
brought by passengers arriving at this
port on a French steamship recently.
One of the passengers, in a position to
know all the facts, declared that mere
than 200 men, women and children
had been killed, that 60 fast Gothas
had taken part in the raid and that
over nine tons of explosive bombs had
been dropped during twO-hOur siege.
One American ambulance driver
alone, according to passenger, picked
up 20 bodies during the night.
1.-THE Germans picked out the dark

raid" said this informant, whose name
cannot be divulged. Their squadrons
came over Vincennes, and headed for
the heart of the city.
Fought i'm Dark.
cit was about midnight when the
popping of the antiaircraft guns woke
me and gave the first alarm. I looked
out, but nothing could be seen in the
blackness, except the flash of the de-
Tending batteries, in every part of the
city, and, occasionally, the sizzling
trail of a bomb.
French machines had risen to the
attack at the first signal, but they
were greatly handicapped by the dark
ness. The rattle Of their machine guns
could be plainly heard and there were
several clashes, but for the most part
the French f1iers went winging blindly
and at random through the dark.
For two hours the city was pelted
with bombs. Hospitals we're hit and
convalescent soldiers wounded. Fa-

POLITICAL LEADER IN RANKS
South Carolina Legislator Valves Ex-
emption and EnIists in the Ma
rine Corps.

Port Royal, S. C.-Side by side men
from various walks of life, Len A.
Scott, three times Republican repre-
sentative from Hardin county, Ten
nessee, and minority floor leader in
the lower house of the last two legis-
latures, is rapidly learning the fire
points of Marine life.
He enlisted in the Marine corps re-
Gently for the duration of the war,
waving exemption on the ground that
he was state legislative officer, and
was sent to this station for prelim-
mary training.
Scott is well known in political cir
cles, it being remembered that he was
the author of the first resolution in
troduced in the house of representa-
tives, pledging support to President
Wilson when war with Germany be-
came inevitable.

Tells OF NIGHT LIFE IN THE TRENCH
with night watchers who trust nobody
but themselves.

with night watchers who trust nobody
but themselves.
Another period of silence except low
voices of men talking in trench whis-
pers." They've learned to trench
whisper" by constant practice. A Poilu
alphabetically explained, as he rear
ranged his nest of black egglike hand
grenades on the trench shelf before him,
that American soldiers talked too loud
at first. But they finally learned to
"parler doucement" he added.
The Boche is active again. A flock
of hand grenades roar themselves into
silence on the other side as fiery light
streaks perform arcs like Roman can
dies and then float gracefully down
under their parachutes into the Ger
man wire. A rifle grenade explOdes
halfway across No Mans Land and
Boche machine guns take up the tune.
The BOche having told the French by
the display that no German soldiers
are prowling in this part of No Mans
Land, there is silence again until time
makes things uncertain.
1.-THE BOche has no reason to be
nervous yet" whispered an officer.
"Our first patrol goes out at 2 o'clock.
Would you like to go alOng?"
Patrolling is one of the milder games
night and it's something most all
American trench soldiers will learn
before the war is over.

Washington.-Upon hearing Of G..
rotary Bakers safe arrival in Fra
through the Associated Press disno,,
from Paris, the war department ~
nounced that the secretary's visit :
purely military and not diplomoa'
and is for purposes of inspection an
personal conferences with military NJ
ficials. Mr. Baker is ACCOMPANIED \.
Major General William M. Black. cbi.,
of engineers; Lieutenant Col, M
Brett and Ralph Hayes, his private sec
rotary.
No official report on the secretarv,s
arrival had been received The d.
department issued this statement:
Sailed February q.
"a cable dispatch from Paris fl
the Associated Press announces IN,
arrival at French port of the secre.
tary of war.
For some time Secretary Baker has
desired to visit the headquarters NJ
the American expeditionary forces
He sailed from an American por
about February u.
Secretary Baker has not determiD
ed the length of time he will remain
in France but his stay will be loDg
enough to enable him to make thor
ough inspection of the American forces
abroad and to hold important confer
ences with American military Officers
at is expected that not only will
Secretary Baker visit the American
headquarters, but his inspection tour
will cover construction projects, in
Guiding docks, railroads and ordnance
bases, now under way back of the
American lines.
"The secretary's visit is military and
not diplomatic. It is essentially for
the purpose of inspection and personal
conference with military officials.
Secretary Baker plans to spend a
brief time in France, inspecting in
person the concrete results ALREADY
achieved in the efforts of his depart
ment to place in the field this year
an army that will be a factor in the
campaign. On the eve of his depart
ure, Mr.. Baker told members Of the
press who had been in the habit Of
seeing him every day that he did not
expect to be away for any considerable
length of time.
The secretary and his party LEFT
Washington without any other at
tempt to conceal their movements
than a request that the press refrain
from reporting his departure. The
newspapers again worked in hearty
cooperation to make the journey
safe as possible from German subms
rines for the party. No hint of the
trip has been printed.

in addition to scores of wounded.
1.-THE next morning I found that
three of the bombs had fallen and ex-
ploded ON the doorstep Of the house
where I was stopping, tearing great
holes six feet in diameter. I found
several unexploded bombs nearby, of
the shape of footballs, but consider
ably larger in size.'
After the attacking squadron had
retired, according to the passengers,
it was found that one of the enemy
planes had been brought down. The
people of Paris, the passengers said,
were of the opinion that the raid was
by way of reprisal for what French
fliers had done over German cities"

Washington.

Under the commercial agreement
between the United States and Spain,
the formal signing of which in Madrid
was announced at the state depart
ment, not only will General Pershing
get the supplies from Spain which he
desires for his troops, but a French
credit in Spain is arranged, and the
Spanish government permits free ex-
port to the allies of pyrites, minerals
and manufactured wool.
Dry zones five miles wide, irrespec-
tive Of incorporated cities and towns
within those limits, are placed around
seven permanent naval training posts
and the naval academy at ANNAPOLIS,
Md, in general order announced BY
Secretary Daniels.
Altogether more than eight miles of
trenches are now being held by Amer
leans on the western fighting front of
Europe.
American troops now have taken I'D
another position on the front in France
and with their usual business-like
methods, says Paris dispatch, have
frustrated an attempt by. the Ger
mans to raid their trenches. The new
position is somewhere in Lorraine,
London, England, dispatch, SAYS
that John E. Redmond, the great Irish
Nationalist leader, died there. He had
undergone an operation and had pass
ed fair day and apparently was main.
tanning the progress shown earlier.
but suddenly he passed into the great
