FRESH SOLDIERS AT FRONT
New Array Much Greater Than the
Old One Along the British
Linei Taking: Part In War.
MANY BOYS IN THE BANKS
ICorre.nondenr of th A.aoi-lated Pre.)
.British Headquarters, France, May
20. A correspondent who has been
shsont for six months from the Brit
ish front is am. red upon his return at
the increase in numbers of men, Runs
and equipment. The numerous battal
ions oLthe new army which have ar
rived nave engulfed the old regular
army. Not one officer in ten that has
had any military service before the
war.
it now requires a ride of I0Q miles
to compass the British front. Khaki
is thick in the villages of the Soinme
country as well as in those of north
ern Belgium. The British hold the
labyrinth, as well as Ypres and Loos.
In the course of the taking over of a
long section of the French line which
freed French troops for service, hun
dreds of miles of wire had to be
laid, transport organised, headquar
ters moved, new corps and divisions
created and commanders appointed.
In the laNt few months new men have
come into positions of responsibility.
Men who entered the army as second
lieutenants have become captains
without vet being old enough to vote.
Majors nave become colonels and
generals.
Chill of Winter Over.
"We do not know when the war
will be over, but we do know that
spring is here," say the soldiers. The
second winter in the trenches is fin
ished. Its chill, wet monotony is over
Before another winter well, what
will happen this summer? The growth
of the army and the sun drawing the
moisture out of the mud emphasized
the universal question.
Never, so far as one can learn, have
there been so many Germans and so
many allied troops on the western
front as at this time. Next to the
Verdun region the German concentra
tion is heaviest in face of the British
of any section from the North Sea to
Switzerland. No German troops have
been drawn off from the British front
as reinforcement for the attack on
Verdun.
Whatever fighting there was
through the winter and there now is
along the British front might best he
described as trench raids. One side
or the other demolishes a section of
enemy trench by exploding mines or
by artillery concentration. Then the
infantry rushes the trench, gathers in
tunic prisoners, does what damage it
tan and returns In ils own trench.
In the nmraa.-trs of the Ypres sali
ent and the l oos region nothing more
could be done, though a winter attack
mitfrit be possihle in high country
like that around Verdun, Much in
genuity lt;i been shown by both sides
in these Irrnrh r.iids. But no sooner
tin one aide worked out a new trick
than the other learn how to counter
it "Mud" was the reason itHen in a
wotd by an oliiirr whv the British
rotild not attack n stnler lo felieve
lite ite.iiie mi Verdun. "It was the
Hr:i.iti the tierui.iti would have thos-
ru .ir it t aiutk," he added.

Ike War.t-Ads Arc
Centennial of Historic Fortresi to
Be Celebrated With Week of :
Pageants and Spectacles.
THREE CITIES ARE INTERESTED
Rock Island, III., May 16. The
Fort Armstrong centennial celebra
tion to be staged on Kock island,
midway in the Mississippi river be
tween Rock Island and Davenport,
June 18-25, is expected to be one of
the bigfest events attempted in tho
middle west by any community in the
last quarter of a cenlury. The cele
bration is to commemorate the 100th
anniversary of the erection of Fort
Armstrong by the early settlers and
will be marked by spectacles, page
antry and parades, historical and alle
goricat, setting out the progress of
the communities during the last cen
tury since the fort was built at a
refuge from hostile Indiana.
Many Organizations Interested.
The celebration ia being staged by
the Fort Armstrong Centennial asso
ciation, an organiiation of prominent
business men of Davenport, Rock Is
land and Moline, whose efforts are
under the direction of the Rock Island
Historical society and the historical
section of the Davenport Academy of
Science. Irving C. Norwood of Dav
enport is president of the association
and il assisted by H. II. Cleaveland
of Rock Island and Elmer E. Morgan
of Moline as members of the execu
tive committee in absolute control of
the management of the celebration.
Rock island, more familiarly known
as Arsenal island, is the property of
the United States government and
permission was Obtained trom tne
War department for the use of a part
of it for the celebration. The greater ,
part of the ground is occupied by the
government arsenal.
Battles with Indiana.
Many of the hardest battles the
whiles had during the period begin
ning in 1805 to suppress the Indiana
and take possession of the fertile Mis
sissippi valley were fought within a
stone s throw of the imposing public
and business buildings of the tri
cities. It was in this vicinity that the
great Chief Black Hawk met with
the officers of the United States army
and the representatives of the gov
ernment at Washington and made the
treaty that established friendship be
tween the whites and the Indians in
the Mississippi valley.
Legend of the Caves.
There is the legend of the caves on
Rock island. These caves are three
in number and, according to the In
dians, a great white bird, a special
messenger of the Great Spirit, occu
pied these caves and at various inter
vals would come from the cave and
carry reports of the tribes to the
happy hunting grounds. Around this
legend will be built beautiful floats
and spectacles to be used during the
pageantry.
The battles of Credit Island and of
Campbell's Island wilr be reproduced
in detail during the celebration. Sev
eral regiments of the National Guard
of Illinois and Iowa will be stationed
in the tri-citit s during the celebration
and they will participate in the mili
tary maneuvers and sham battles that
will be made a realistic part of the
celebration.
French Steamship ; j
Companies Make ;
Poor Showing
(rorrpondnr of th Aoclt4 Pre.
I'aris, May 16. While France suf
fers from the extraordinary ocean
freight rates now prevailing, her
steamship owners reap little or none
of the profits. Dividends of French
navigation companies such as de
clared dividends ran from 6 to 15
per cent, while British Dutch and
Scandinavian companies distributed
from 8 to 100 per cent among their
shareholders.
One English company declared a
dividend or 106 per cent, one 50 per
cent, one 49 per cent, seven from 25
to 40 pen cent and twenty-nine com
panies dividends ran from 10 to 20
per cent. Two Dutch companies di
vided 100 per cent, two 50 per cent
and two 40 per cent and only one as
little as 25 per cent.
The comparatively poor showing of
the French merchant fleet is ex
plained partly by the considerable re
quisitions made by the governrricnt
and other war disturbances that did
not affect neutral countries and were
felt far less proportionately in Eng
land, because British owners con
tinued to profit from outgoing
freight which the French fleet has
always lacked. Economic writers
call the attention of the Superior
Merchant Marine council, now in ses
sion, to the fact that French lines
have aho Millered from obstructive
administration measures and call for
refortnl that have been under discus
sion for years, particularly concern
ing the regime of French ports,
methods ol recruiting French sailors
and better interior transportation to
iunmh a better Millet for freight
brimi'hl t4 port in French bottoms.
