Zeppelin Drops Bombs On Paris German Aerial Raid Made On -french Capital But Does Slight CITIZENS DISPLAY FORTITUDE People Remained Calm During Bom bardment Trumpets Warned City Of Aerial Fleet's Approach : Paris. At an early morning hour Zeppelin airships raided Paris, and dropped a dozen bombs, but the dam age was unimportant. Seven or eight persons were Injured, but only one seriously. Four of the aircraft started for tho capital following the valley of tho Oise, but only two reached their goal. Missiles also were dropped at Com piegne, Rlbecourt and Dreslincourt, but without serious result. Paris remained calm while the aerial Invasion was in progress, and resi dents of the city exhibited more curi osity than fear. Trumpets gave the signal that all lights must be extin guished as soon as warning was re ceized of . the Zeppelins' approach. Searchlights were turned on the clouds, anti-aircraft guns opened fire and aeroplanes rose to attack the Germans, but their operations were hampered by a heavy mist. Official Report On Raid An official communication regarding the raid declares it served only to show how well the defensive arrange ments would work out when put to the test. The statement follows: "Between 1:15 and 3 o'clock this morning four Zeppelins started toward Paris from the direction of Com peigne, following the valley of the Oise. Two were compelled to return before reaching Paris, one at Rouen '(10 miles north of Paris), the other at Nantes (on the Seine, 36 miles from Paris). The other two were attacked by anti-aircraft guns and only passed over outlying districts of the north western part of Paris and neighboring suburbs. They withdrew after having dropped a dozen bombs, some of which did not explode. The damage done was unimportant. Seven or eight persons were injured, but only one seriously. "The different stations for anti aircraft defense omiied fire upon the Zeppelins, whiclyVere constantly kept illumined byj'Searchlights. One ap peared til ljjrve been hit. The aero plane squadron took part in the action, but mist hampered pursuit. '"Summing up, the Zeppelin raid on Paris was a complete failure. It served only to demonstrate how well the de fensive arrangements work.. The popu- 7 Those of Middle Age Especially.

There may be room enough wet V 17 M;' v IT' No Concessions Have Been Made FRANCE AND ENGLAND PERSIST IN THEIR BLOCKADE OF GERMANY Correspondence Of Ambassadors Page, Sharp And Gerard Made Public By Secretary Bryan Washington. Six diplomatic notes were made public by the state depart ment, constituting the entire corre spondence of the last few weeks be tween the United States and Germa ny, and between the United States and Great Britain and France, rela tive to the cessation of submarine at tacks of conditional contraband and foodstuffs to civilians, the use of neu tral flags by belligerent merchantmen, the removal of mines and the procla mation of a virtual blockade by the allies against Germany. The communications revealed that the United States, realizing the diffi culties of the allies maintaining an ef fective blockade of Germany by a closo guard of the coast on account of the newly developed activity of subma rines, asked that a "radius of activity" be defined. Great Britain and France replied with the announcement that the operations of blockade would not be conducted "outside of European wa ters, incluiing the Mediterranean." While Germany agreed, it is disclos ed to abandon her submarine attacks on "mercantile of any flag," except when they resist visit or search, pro vided foodstuffs were permitted to reach her civilian population. Great Britain and her allies rejected the pro posal, originally made by the United States in an effort to bring the bel ligerents into an arrangement which would safeguard the interests of neu trals. Furthermore, the documents show that the United States asked Great Britain and France whether the em bargo on all commerce between Ger many and neutral countries was to be carried out under the rules of a block ade or by interference with ships and cargoes "as if no blockade existed," the two together presenting in the view of the American government "a proposed course of action previously unknown to International law." The answers from Great Britain and France reveal for the first time that the allies officially regard their pol icy as a "blockade," but desire to re frain from exercising the rights of bel ligerents under a blockade to confis cate ships and cargoes as a penalty for breach of blockade, substituting procedure in prize courts and compen sation through sale of the detained merchandise.

Conditions in Mexico City, as well as Manzanlllo, are giving officials much concern. Apparently the reoccupation of the capital by the Zapata forces has not brought the expected relief, or else Americans have tired of their Isolation and the stagnation their businesses have experienced, for a large number of them with other foreigners asked the state department through the Bra zilian minister to obtain for them transportation to Vera Cruz. Secre tary Bryan announced later that trains had been requested from both . the Villa-Zapata government and the Car ranza authorities. Urgent representations were made during the day to General Carranza concerning his troops at Manzanlllo, whose activities have caused foreign ers much apprehension. The Ameri can consul was instructed to keep In close touch with the commander of the cruiser Cleveland. It Is understood the commander has discretionary pow ers, enabling him to take measures for the relief of foreigners If an emer gency should develop. The Swedish minister laid before the state department disquieting dispatch es from the Swedish legation In Mexi co City. Conditions there since the re entry of the Zapata forces were de scribed as deplorable and "ghastly." The dispatches said that the home of Gustave Lundholm, a Swedish subject, had been despoiled by Zapatistas and that another Swede had been robbed In the street. The house of a third Swedish subject which had been loot ed by the Carranza forces was entered again and money and weapons de manded.
