In the Woevre plain (east of the

Germans Are Conserving
Their Artillery Fire to
Prepare Against Offensive
By STANLEY WASHBURN.
(Exclusive War Dispatches to The
Atlanta Georgian and The Lon- 3
don Times,)
HEA.DQUARTERS GENERAL
CORPS, FRENCH ARMY OF THE
ARGONNRE, April 26—We reached
headquarters yesterday afternoon
and were met by the general, who of -
sered the hospitality of hig corps and
assured us that we might go any
where in his command. He suggested
that we should g 0 with him to a cer
tain observation point where a good
idea could be obtained of the general
nature of the country and the obsta
cles with which he had to contend.
In motor cars we started, presently
entering a tree-clad country. There is
for a time not a sound to break the
pedceful stillness until suddenly, from
not far away, comes the sullen boom
of a heavy gun, followed by others
nearer, and again others from all
quarters of the wood. The general
stopped the car and we got out, As
we stood by the roadside there came
a melancholy wai] of a shell hurtling
overhead, followed by a spiteful ex
plosion Somewhere in the woods,
In Russia I should have said a small
battle wag going on, but there they
told me it wag nothing but regular
artillery practice, which goes on hour
after hour and day after day.
Prepared Against Attack,
We walked forward while the gen
eral pointed out line after line of
barbed-wire entanglements and re
serve positions prepared by the
French against a pu-sible German |
advance. The country here is a se
ries of rolling ridfies, reminding one
of (tlhe Berkshire Hills of New Emg
land.
From all quarters come the crash
and roar of artillery, but nowhere
is there visible Bigns of any guns of
gun positions, so deftly are these
tucked in the woodland. Entering a
communication trench in a little hol
low, wé wind through it and emerge
into a gallery facing the enemy lines,
which lay beyond a river that winds
between us and the German posi
tion.
The French trenches are well up on
the side of a hill, only a few hundred
yards from those of the Germans.
We are here at the very hour when
the French artillery is most active,

and for half an hour we watched the
German lines, 1,000 yards away, being
drenched with French shells, Over
head we hear the nnintermittent rush
of French shells, while the woods be
hind are vibrant with the crash and
roar of guns.
Even without glasses it is possible
the eye can reach one can pick out
to see details of the German position,
now like the crater of a very active
young volcano, studded with flashes
of bursting shells and steaming
abysses hung with the black smoke
they leave~behind them. As far as
the German line by the cloud of dust
and debris that hangs in the air, the
‘explosion of one sheil being instantly
followed by another,
Shell Bursts Near By,
~ The Germans apparently are not
disposed to be “strafed” in silence,
for within a minute or two their guns,
hidden in the distance, began a reply,
and the noise of the French shells and
their shells, coupled with the roar of
the guns, makes a chaos of sound. So
confusing is the uproar that a Ger
man shell burst within ten paces of
us without our even noticing it antil
an officer with us smilingly called at
tention to the fact.
Then suddenly, as though a master
hand had touched the switch of sounad
the guns ceased, and there fell a si
lence g 0 profound that the note of a
bird slnqing 100 yards away seemed
loud and shrill. The afternoon activ
ity was for the moment finished, and
once more the world seemd bathed in
peace and serenity,
As we walked back T asked the gen
eral if this was the normal activity of
an afternoon.
“Hardly,” he said with a smile, “It
is unusually quiet here today. The
Germans, as you noted, stop firing
when we do.”
The smile vanished for a 4 moment,
and then he said a little sternly:
“And it is well for them that they
do, for I shall reply with two for every
shell they send against us. Perhaps
they know it, because, you see, theyl
are not anxious to continue shelling
so far.”
In Russia a Russian shell brought
back ten from the Germans. This im
pressed me more than anything else.
But here it is quite clear they are Le
ginning to feel the wisdom of con-.
serving their fire for the great of

U. S. to Resist Contingent
Acceptance.
Lot .
By JOHN EDWIN NEVIN.
(Staff Correspondent of the Interna
tional News Service.)
WASHINGTON, April 26.—Ger
many's reply tp the American subma
rine warfare ultimatum will reach
here probably Friday. Ambassador
Gerard today reported to the State
Department that it is about complete.
Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg was
scheduled to confer with the Kaiser
today and will probably hand the re
ply to the American Ambassador some
time tomorrow,
Officlals said today that an effort
by Germany to make an acceptance
of the American terms contingent
|uppn a demand by the United States
| that Great Britain abandon her block
'ade of Germany would he resisted by
{thls Government. That is a matter
which the United Stafes will handle
upon its own initiative.
It is expected that a new note deal
ing with the British trade blockade
' Soon will be prepared. The joint An
glo-French note defending the blocke
gade on the ground of military neces
-Bity, made public last night, is de
clared to be far from satisfactory to
the United States. Officials insisted
today that the note, in declaring that
new methods have had to be used in
preventing supplies reaching Ger
many, admits that such methode are
)in violation of international law.
| The German Embassy still was
’\\llhnut any definite word from Ber
lin regarding the American note. It
was sald that it was unlikely that
Ambassador von Bernstorff would re
ceive any further advices until after
tthe reply is in Ambassador Gerard’s
}hands.
. Embassy officials continue hoépeful.
They believe that the basis of settle
'ment to be offqred by Germany will
‘be an extension' of her submarine or
ders affecting the Mediterranean
shipping to include all submarine
‘operations “everywhere. This would,
‘in effect, compel submarine command
ers to carry on cruiser warfare. If this
is done, then Germany is expected to
ask the United States again to define
its stand on the armed merchantman
question,

‘ Messages Pile Up.
WASHINGTON, April 26.—The av
alanche of peace telegrams kept pil
ing higher and higher upon Congress
today and Representatives from all
parts of the country indicated the
flood of messages would not reach the
crest for several days. So strong be
came the pressure for avoidance .of a
break with Germany today that Dem
ocratic leaders began to doubt
'Whether they would be longer able to
keep the peace advocates in the Sen

the last submarine note has been re

Senator Lafollette, of Wisconsin,
has been threatening for several days
to make a speech in the Senate de
nouncing the Administration’s stand
on the submarine issue, and other
Middle West Senators who have been
persuaded to remain silent on the in
ternational crisis were beginning to
show signs of vielding today to the
demands for peace talk.

Kerosene Turned
To Gas by Current
KANSAS CITY, MO., April 26.—An
invention which may revolutionize the
methods of refining gasoline and |
bring down the price of that product
was demonstrated today by Louis
Bond Cherry. |
The method is based on an electro«l
chemical process. The inventor
poured kerosene into a tank and drew
off gasoline.
The finished product, when placed |
in the tank of a motor car, propelled
the machine easily and smoothly,
By the new process Cherry expects !
to produce three and four times as
much gasolihe from a gallon of crude
oil as now is produced by the refin
eries. The refining cost will be only
three-fourths of a cent a gallon.
Hudson Maxim, on a recent visit
to Kansas City, said the plan would
revolutionize the making of gasoline,
