He had severed all connections with the
army about 15 days before coming to
El Paso and intended to peacefully live
here and have no further connection
with any faction, he stated. He de
clared that, if released, he would not go
back to Mexico or in any way identify
himself with the factional strife.
Attorneys for the defence stated that
documentary evidence in the case tend

Villa-
art in order to support his allies and as
he was unable to emulate their exam

with high explosives, it was to the Brit
ish bayonets that the task of overcom

afternoon Gen. French rode out among
the troops to wish them good luck, ad
dressing to all a few inspiring words.
Attack After Msht.
The night was not very dark but
there was no moon and scarcely any
wind. All the dispositions were made
siic 'itlv after dusk. We were anywhere
ro CO to 300 yards from the enemy's
front trenches and many nasty ob
stacles had to be overcome. "We had to
depend on bayonets and grenades. It
was too dark for shooting.
"Our left attacked at 11:30 oclock and
succeeded In storming the German line
and overthrowing the defenders. Before
Ions our left center was dashing in with
cold steeL It penetrated two lines o
German trenches and killed or wounded
most of the defenders and made good a
front of about S08 yards in the German
position.
Break Down Defences.
"Our extreme left was less fortunate.
as a Maxim fire on this flank was se
vere and accurate. But the Indian troops
on this side eventually penetrated
through the opening made by the left
center and soon began to outflank and
break down the defences in front of the
original left of our attack.
"At 3 oclock in the morning a fresh
and formidable line of British Infantry
advanced from our right against the
German trenches in the direction of
Festubert. The men stormed the Ger
man lines with the utmost gallantry
and soon made themselves masters of a
front of 1400 yards. They overwhelmed
the second line and tien penetrated the
-eserve trenches, causing the enemy
heavy losses.
"By 11 oclock this attack had pene
trated for a mile Into the German lines
and promised to extend around the Ger
mans who still held on to their front
trenches between our right and our cen
ter attacks. We had. In short, by noon
overthrown almost completely the Ger
mans on our front and when the writer
left the scene there seemed good hops
that the inevitable German attack
would prove costly and Ineffective."

Toronto. Ont. May IS. 4so acute has
become the anti German feeling in this
part of Canada that it extends even
to beer, provided the beer tasj Ger

revoked the permit for a large electric

The council also sent instructions
to the heads of municipal departments

BATTLE AT GALLIP0LI IS
QUESTION OF LOSING MEN
Ijondon. Eng, May ft. The war on
the Gallipoli peninsula near the Dar
danelles is a question of how many men
can be lost in the capture of each
trench, according to the British press
representative there. He says the po
sitionF already won bv the allies prove
the Turks were justified in considering
the positions impregnable. He says the
allies have now fought their way to
Atchi Baba. about five miles jp the
peninsula, the first of the commanding
positions on which the Turko-German
force can make a stand.
The message adds:
"The navy has achieved an equally
fine organization for the landing of a
continuous supply of men and muni
tions. Piers have been built out into
deep water so that the largest lighters
can come alongside. Roads have been
ctu along the cliffs to increase the area
of disembarkation and 1M devices have
been utilized to assist in efficiency. At
night the southern end of the Galli
poli peninsula, formerly deserted and
barren, has the appearance of one of
the world's greatest ports. There are
masses of lights on shore, as though
several towns have sprung up, while at
sea 100 great, transports and many
warships are packed outside the de
fiant straits "

Our Men's Colyum
What an Experienced Salesman Means
to th: M an Selecting a New Suit
THE writer stopped in the
Clothing Department to
day to look himself over In
some of th new summer
modek of which there are
many. y
The salesman produced a new
wide lapel, three tutton model;
the pattern was a happy sum
mer check. The writer tried it
on. It seemed highly satisfac
tory, but the salesman said:
"Wait a minute."
"LTE produced another and
" another and a fourth:
each different, and each struck
the writer as more suited to
him than the la'st-
Then the salesman smilingly
produced a fifth. "This is the
suit for you," he said. And it
was! Its lines, its stripes, its
fit around coBar and shoulder
seemed to encompass the
writer's exact idea of the prop
er suit for himself.
HpHE salesman knew from
" the beginning that this
was the suit the writer should
have, but he wished to exhibit
his knowledge of fit and be
comingness. "We have this,
model at 14.50, $20.00 and
$25.00," he explained a little
better tailoring and materials
distinguishing the different
prices."
This incident impressed us
strongly of the value of a
trained salesman to a man se
lecting a suit. All the sales

gent, conscientious men fuHy
versed in the precepts of good
dress. This fact will impress,

PAPER DECLARES GERMANY
WONT BE DISTURBED. BY U. S.
Berlin. Germany. May IS. None of
the German papers has been permitted
to publish the American note to Ger
many, but the afternoon papers on
Monday printed the versiop of it as j
telegraphed by the Havas agency. All
refrained from comment except the Lo
kal Anzeiger. which says:
The German government certainly
will not delay long with the answer re
quested, and probably will reply that in
occupying itself with its 'sacred duties'
it is not to be disturbed from any side.
"That the American government
should consider the Lusitania as a
harmless packet boat, without taking
notice of the fact that it was really an
auxiliary cruiser and an ammunition
steamer of the British navy, appears to
us scarcely believable. But the German
answer to Washington will make it
comprehensible to Mr. Wilson, in lan
guage as pulitie as it will be clear, that
we must conduct the war as we are
conducting it and can conduct it with
a clear conscience."
The Taglische Rundschau, comment
ing on the reports that the Lusitania
incident has caused a "growing in
sight" in America, says:
"This insight will probably lead to
the dlsco ery that England really is the
guilty part because it took ammuni
tion on board a passenger steamer in
contravention of the American laws."
