PARIS, April 25.—About the same time that Freucia infantry on the e -est banit of tee Meuse rushed for- ward in a spirited attack against the new German lines north-west of Ver- dun, a squadron of French aviators set out on an extended raid of the r+....... ,;...,. .. aunleatiou be- nee- s.he Carman front, Seventy shells and eiiht incendiary bombs were dropped upon widely separated strategic railway stations and bi- voLaa.eks.

One of the: e, against Le Mort Homme, won a temporary success, but the Ger- mans were driven out by a counter- attack; the second, north of the Bois des Caurettes, was completely re- pulsed, and the third on the Vaux sector was checked by the French ar- tillery before the Germane could leave their positions. The first of the German assaults was a repetition of the effort to re- gain the positions taken by the French on the slopes of Hill 295, the summit of Le Mnrt Homme. This as- sault penetrated the first Iine of French trenches, but a counter-attack restored to the French all the posi- tions they had previously regained.

CASEMENT IS Ta 'EN. Pro -German Agitator Arrested Try- ing to Land. Arms in Ireland. LONDON, April 25.—An attempt to stir up a "revolution" in Ireland was nipped inthe bud when a Ger- man auxiliary cruiser armed by a strong force of German sailors and loaded with vast stores of rifles and ammunition was sunk off the coast of Ireland by British patrol warcraft Monday. Sir Roger Casement, one of the leaders in the Irish Home Rule strug- gle, who bas been in Germany since the early part of the war, was arrest- ed, an Admiralty bulletin Monday night stated, "while attempting to land arms in Ireland." A number of other prisoners were taken. From the British chief bulletin is- sued late Monday night by the Ad- miralty it is not clear whether the German auxiliary cruiser actually had begun to land troops and arms and ammunition or whether she was sunk off the coast before she could approach the shore.

South Attic= Leader Its Defeated the Enemy Before Ieondoa, Irangi, and Germans Have Re- treated in the Direction of the Central Railway—Smuts Has a Considerable Force of Abyi see isms. LONDON, April. 2 5.—Coutinuin€ their advance in German East Africa, the British expeditionary farces have occupied the town of I%ondoa, in the district of Irnugi, The statement follows: "Telegraphing on Sunday General Stouts reports that troops ander Gen. Vanderventer, after defeating the enemy before Kandoa, Irangi, ou April 19, occupied that place. Pris- oners were taken and a considerable number of casualties inflicted on the German forces, which retired in the direction of the central railway." Instead of striking along the Tanga railway, he has pushed inland at a tremendous rate, piercing the Um- bugwe and Kondoa irangi districts. I3mbugwe and Salanga are in British hands, It is not generally known that a considerable force of Abyssin- ian troops are attached to General Smuts' forces. The official report reads: "Reports from Lieut. -Gen. Smuts (commander of the expedition against German East Africa) state that mounted troops under Lieut.- Col. ieut;CoI.Vandeventer, after their suc- cesses at Lol Kissale on April 4 and 5, continued their advance, occupying Umbugwe, or Kothershelm, on April 12, and Salanga on April 14. "At each of these places small hostile garrisons were captured or driven off with losses. "The enemy was encountered in some force near ICondoa Irangl on April 17, and it became evident that s hostile concentration was being ef- fected in that direction. Fighting had been continued up to the time of tele- graphing. "Nothing of importance has occur- red in the other theatres iu East Africa. Heavy rains have commenc- ed. Excellent progress has been made with the coustruction of the railway from Voi, which has now been carried forward to New Moshi." This announcement indicates that the British expedition has penetrated the interior of Gar xan East Africa for a considerable distance. About one hundred miles beyond the border is the district of t mbugwe. It is south of Mount Iiilmanjaro, which is on the southern border of British East Africa. BRITISH RETAKE TRENCH. Lines on Tpree:-La.ngemarck Road Now in Original Position. LONDON, April 25.—Despatches of Sir Douglas Haig from the front last week -end announce that the Ring's Shropshire Light Infantry has recaptured the trench which the Germans had taken on the Ypres- Langemarck road on the night of April 19, and had re-established British lines on their original foun- dation. British patrols also raided German trenches routhv: est of Thiep- val on Saturday night and captured thirteen Germans. Heavy casualties were inflicted on the enemy in this raid by the bombing of his dugouts. British artillery getting the range of a German werking party in front of St. Riot speedily dispersed it Sun- day. There was the usual mining and artillery work en the whole front. The German admission of this Ioss is thus made: "German forges were compelled to evacuate newly won trenches -on the Langemarck-Ypres road on account of high floods, which made the con- solidation of the positions impos- sible. "A hand grenade attack made by the English south of St. Eloi was re- pulsed." GERMANY WILL BACK DOWN. Delay in Answering Wilson's Ultima- tum Paints to Accession. BERLIN, April 25.—Germany's answer to President Wilson's virtual ultimatum will be despatched to Washington at the earliest in the middle, possibly not before the end, of the ensuing week. Of all the signs and hints and omens with regard to the outcome of the crisis between the two countries this very delay of Germany's answer is the most significant; it points clearly to a backdown on the part of the German Government, and a dig- nified and gradual, but none the Iess complete, accession to America's de- mand that the lives of American citizens must be safeguarded. What is really coming to pass in Germany at this moment is a feverish preparation for . a submission to American demands; not, to be sure, tar a complete abandonment of the submarine warfare, but of that which is asked in Mr. Wilson's closing para- graph: a declaration and a putting into effect of an abandonment of its present methods of submarine war- fare against passenger and freight - carrying vessels. Berlin Charges Bribery. BERLIN, April 25.—"According to reports from Geneva," says the Overseas News Agency, "Great Brit- sin bas offered to Spain possession of Tangier if Spain will seize the Ger- man ships in Spanish ports and will consent to the closing of the Sraits of Gibraltar to all neutral ships except those flying tate Spanish .flag." tr.

The battle took place Sat- urday, when Italian infantry storm- ed the Austrian trenches, breaking 'down stubborn resistance. The Aus- trians at once drew up reinforce- ments and then launched two furious counter-attacks, wresting part of the lost positions back from the Italians. Saturday in a third attack during the night they retook another section, but the Italians, themselves rein- forced by this time, fought bitterly to regain full control of the positions originally won, furious hand-to-hand fighting ensued, lasting several hours, and the Italians finally achiev- ed their aim, ejecting the Austrians and taking 133 prisoners, including six officers and much booty. The Austrians throughout Sunday concentrated heavy artillery fire on the summit of the Col di Lana, but, according to the War Office, without result. RUSSIANS FOR t'ERDUN. Force is Being Hurried to 1i'est Front From alarseillcs. LYONS, France, April 25. The Russian troops which arrived at Mar- seilles on Thursday for senvlee with tho French on the 'western front passed through here Saturday on their way northward. Tbey received an enthusiastic wel- come here and all along their route. Evidently the allied eomtnanders are losing no -tine in bringing the Russian troops to the battle front. The fact that they Passed through Lyons, 218 ;, miles north of 141ar- srfl2es, before 12.40 o'clock Saturday afternoon suggests that they prob- ably left the Mediterranean port some time during Friday night. I3y going through Lyons the Russians are moving by the most direct route to Verdun.
