(From a Etaff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, March 9. (Special.) It
looks now as if Nebraska may cele?
brate its fiftieth anniversary by con
structing a new state house, or at
least by making a start iri that direc
tion, the house today placing on gen
eral file the Richmond ' bill, H. R.
No. 1, creating a fund for a new east
wing.
The original bill called for a one
mill levy which should run for a pe
riod of years until $3,500,000 had been
raised. The construction of the new
building was to be In the hands of a
commission composed of capable citi
zens who should serve without pay.
It provided for the drawing of plans
for an entire new building, but that
the east wing should first be con
structed. Provides for Wing.
I'lie. committee amended the bill,
cutting down the levy from one mill
to 68-100 of a mill to run only for a
period of two years. This will raise,
so it is estimated, about $700,000, and
will be sufficient for the needs of the
wing.
Some disappointment is felt by
friends of the capitol building plan
that the committee did not see fit to
provide for the completion of the
building by extending the levy for the
.required number of years. They
crai mthat the completion of the
building will be a foot ball for corn
legislatures to kick around and per
haps the completion of the structure
may be delayed for many years.
"If we are to have a new state
house," said one member last night,
who has opposed the building plan,
"I believe that we should build a good

"Supplemental information has been
received showing that the attack made
yesterday by our troops between
Butte du Mesnil and Maisons de
Champagne was a brilliant success.
Notwithstanding the snow which ren
dered the operation difficult, our
troops blew up enemy positions on a
front of 1,500 meters, varying in depth
from 600 to 800 meters. Late in the
day the Germans delivered a violent
counter offensive on the left of this
sector. After a furious combat with
hand grenades we repulsed the adver
sary, who suffered heavy losses. The
number of prisoners taken by us was
136, including three officers.
"Attacks by the enemy on one of
our trenches at Avocourt wood on the

prisoners, two machine grns and 0112
mine thrower.

and. at Maisons de Champagne. From
trie latter place they were repulsed.
A counter attack recovered for us the

chine guns without loss to us."
Fort Omaha Balloon
Makes Long Flight
And Lands in Iowa
The signal service balloon that was
sent up at Fort Omaha at 1:40
o'clock Friday afternoon, shot out
into space like an arrow and was soon
out of sight. Catching an upper cur
rent of the air, apparently something
like 1,000 feet above the earth, the
balloon drifted eastward, and from
Morrison, la., last night Captain
Bower telegraphed back to the fort
that he and his companions, Lieuten
ant Davidson and A. Leo Stevens,
chief balloonist instructor, had landed
after a most successful flight.
The balloon reached the earth at
7:30 o'clock and during the five hours
and fifty minutes that it was in the
air traveled something more than 150
miles. Its course was almost due
east. Captain Bower and his associ
ates are expected to return to the fort
today and make a report on the fight.

new testimony in the trial of Mrs.

Alfred George Mason, husband of
one of the daughters, was resumed
today before Justice Low in the Old
Bailey,' where the prisoners are
charged with conspiring to murder
Iiemicr Lloyd George and Arthur
Henderson, labor member of the war
council. The case was delayed yes
terday because of the illness of a
juror, which necessitated the swear
ing in of a new jury and the repetition
of the testimony submitted up to that
time.

previous jury haviiic been repeated
by this morning, Mrs. Whecldon con
tii.ued he testimony In reply to Judge

poison which she testified previously
had been obtained to kill dogs would
not have been just as available to get
rid of Premier Lloyd George and Mr.
Henderson, the witness said:
"I did not desire it to be carried
out. I never wished to take any
body's life or to have anybody's blood
on my conscience. That is why I ob
jected to the army taking conscien
tious objectors."
Mrs. WhejlJon declared that various
occurrences whic'.. the crown con
tends fit in with its case, were all
coincidences. She said that the se
cret agent, Gjrdon, who had been
introduced .o her as a fugitive f.om
the police had told her Premier Lloyd
George was responsible for Lord
Kitchener's death because Mr. Lloyd
George was to have gone to Petro

hours before i c time of departure
and the escort tvhich had been ar
ranged for him was withdrawn.

AMERICAN BOATS
Executive Also Summons Con
gress to Meet in Extraordi
nary Session Sixteenth
of April.
ACTION TAKEN AT ONCE
Newspapers and Cable Com
panies Asked to Suppress
Data on Armament.
CABINET BACKS UP CHIEF
Washington, March' 9. President
Wilson has decided to arm American
merchant ships under his constitu
tional authority and als3 has called
a special session of congress for April
16. The proclamation for the extra
session was issued at the White House
this afternoon. The president said he
was calling congress because so much
necessary legislation was pressing for
consideration.
It was learned definitely that some
American merchant vessels sailing
for the submarine zone will be, armed
by the government at once. Pre
liminary arrangements have been
completed and it is expected that ves
sels will be ready to sail in the near
future.
Won't Be Made Public
The names of the ships which will
be armed will not be made public by
the government and are not expected
to be published in the newspapers.
The following itatement was is
sued: "Secretary Tumulty stated in con-:
nection with the president's call for
an extra session of congress that the
president is convinced that he has
the power to arm American merchant
ships and is free to exercise it at
once. But so much necessary legisla
tion is pressing for consideration that
he is convinced that it is for the best
interests of the country to have an
early session of the sixty-fifth con
gress, whose support he will also need .
in' all matters collateral to the de
fense of our merchant marine'
Sigm Proclamation in Bed.
The president signed the proclama
tion for the extra lession while.Jying
in bed with a cold. He also approved
the stafemetit given out at the White
House. Ordcrr for carrying out the
president's decisions to arm ships
were immediately sent to the Navy
department. .
Mr. Wilson has the backing of the
entire cabinet in taking the step.
Guns for arming nierchantjien have
b-icn assembled uL. navy yards along
the Atlantic coast and everything is
ready to carry out .the policy an
nounced by thy president.
The Navy department has issued an
appeal to the American newspapers
to refrain from publishing any infor
mation whatever ot the nature ot ar
mament of ships and already nan ap
pealed to the cable companies to sup
press all information of ships cross
ing the Atlantic in either direction.
Because of the passage by the
house of the armed neutrality bill and
the signing of the manifesto approv
ing such a step by a majority of the
senate during its last session the pres
ident feels lie has congress and the
country behind Jiim. As' soon as
congress convenes additional legisla
tion on the question will be asked
for.
Under the bill passed near the end
of the last session the amount of
money at the disposal of the govern
ment war risk bureau for insuring
American ships was increased to $15,
000,000. Under the present rule of
the bureau the government does rot
insure ships carrying arms or ammu
nitions. , '
Call to Congress.
The president's proclamation call
ing the extra session of congress fol
lows: 'Whereas, public, interests reauire
that the congress of the United State
should be convened in extra session
