Prssa dispatches from the French thtatre f war, which are borne out by the official communications of the French, BrltUh and Qtrman War Office; how that there Is In creasing righting; activity alt along the western front. From the North Sea to the Swiss frontier, troops on both aides are engaged In direct or counter assauls, patrol and scouting en terprise or trench raids. The big guns nro busy all alonr the line, particularly on the Franco-Belgian frontier, on the Somme front. In Champagne and In the sector of Verdun. The, British are again In action along the northern end of. the Somme front, attack ing on both sides of the Ancre River and keeping up a steady bombardment against the German defcnj.ve works north of the Albert-Bapaume road. The fighting has been particularly severe around Mlraumont, Where the opposing troops are battling for trateglo hills. Details today of the brilliant British vic tory around Mlraumont Impressed experts here with the preparations Groat Britain ha made for the great offensive of 1917. Two days' fighting resulted In ejecting the Germans from nearly six square miles of terrain of enormous strategic Importance, and the victory was achieved despite the most revere handicaps. The number of prisoners was expected today to reach somewhere near 1000. Dispatches declare the forces attacked wsre fully aware of the Imminence of the assault They occupied the more favorable position for defensive operations, being on the hills of Mlraumont. A heavy mist prevented British aircraft from estimating ranges for guns an well ai veiled the ob- i active for the men on the trench parapets. lut the attack v. as carried through with precision, exact ranges being obtained through previous reconnolssances. The British guns did terrible damago to the German trenches.

Despite the fact tnat some of the newspapers are taking a Bloomy view of Austro-Amerlcan rela tions nnd the situation brought about by the severing of relations between the United States -and Germany, official circles In Vienna are Inclined to believe the situation Is not entirely hopeless. This also Is the view or Frederic C. Pendeld, tho American Ambassador, who Is doing everything pos sible to assist In reaching a friendly solu tion of the situation. At this moment there are two Indications, though possibly they are of little weight, wlllch permit of the conclusion that Wash ington Is not contemplating an Immediate break with Austria-Hungary. Ono is the transfer of Joseph C. Grew, former secretary of the embassy in Berlin, who arrived here tonight from Switzerland, to assume, the .duties of counselor of tho embassy. The second Indication arises from the fact that Secretary of State Lansing yesterday wired here the sum of 1250,000, the amount having been donated by American Hebrew socie ties. At the embassy here the opinion was expressed that the United States Govern ment might not have transferred this sum had a break between Washington and Vi enna been even tentatively decided on. At the Foreign Office no conjectures are Indulged In regarding what the near future may bring. The fact that the two govern ments are unable to communicate their views more freely has made the exchange of opinions slow and , unsatisfactory. The correspondent Is able to say that the Austro-IIungarlan Government as a result remains In almost total Ignoranoe of .what measures are needed In order to meet the views of President Wilson and his Cabinet The Impression here if that In Washing ton It Isi believed the dual monarchy will recede from the position taken Jointly with Germany regarding submarine warfare. The feeling here, however, Is that while the Austro-Hungarlan Government might consider small modifications of the new blockade regulations, as Germany has done In the case of Holland, there la not th lightest chance that it will yield In the least, so far as the principle Involved If concerned. Meanwhile, It Is satd, the Gov ernment Is ever ready to listen to some proposition from Washington 'It It does not Sect in any form the submarine warfare as Is directed against the Entente states 4. the Imports from, neutral countries to these States. There aeems tto.be no doubt that official eireU,and'the entire public have become tboroMr reconciled to the step the dual noaveby baa taken Jointly with- Germany siee Aiutre-nwag&rian uovernmem Transit Pact Favors P.

Kreatly desire nnd which conversations with many of the cltlzenH 1ihh led mo to bcllevo tho people havo tho Impression thW won provided for when they authorized the construction of the lines. "What the people want Is ranjd transit service on a square-deal basis. "What the city Is contracting for Is sim ply a right of way for this servlco, nnd It Is now asking the Public Service Com mission for permission to build this righto of way; but tho service cannot be set tled until a contract or lease Is executed with somo one w ho will bupply tho cars and service necessary to mako the Unc3 n com plete working proposition "It has been repeatedly stated that tho structure when constructed muft be equipped 'and operated. Tho construction part of the program will only consume three or four years. When constructed, however, these lines nre expected to last Indefinitely and to bo operated continuously by some one. "The proposition now before tho city Is for a flfty-jear lease of these lines, and It Is the terms on which these lines are to bo leased which nro now up for discussion. THHEE WAYS TO OPEKATE "When theso lines are completed there are three ways In which they may bo operated, and tho order of desirability may bo stated ns follows: "First. They may be leased on terms satisfactory to the city and the existing company (the Philadelphia Itapld Transit Companv). "Second. They may be leased upon terms satisfactory to the city and a company or Individual who will run the city's lines In competition with the existing company. "Third. The city may equip Its system of lines and operate them as a municipal system at a rate of fare and upon terms approved by the people. "The city, under tho law of 1913, Is au thorized to purchase, lease, locate and con struct and equip or otherwise acquire transit facilities and to own, maintain, use and operate tho same. "The city Is therefore authorized to em bark In the transportation business It It rinds It is unable to lease the lines on a satisfactory basis. ( "The significant statement made by Com missioner 3ogee at the public hearing held on February 14 has probably been mis understood by the public In general, 'The Commissioner undoubtedly desired to point out to the people of Philadelphia the vital Importance of determining who nnd by whom these lines are to be run. The Commissioner's question, 'Whether the approval of these plans does not tie the city to the present company?' can only be given an affirmative answer for the reason that both tho application asked for and the plans submitted are based solely nnd entirely on tho V assumption that a lease with the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company will be accepted and that the only matters In dispute aro the matters of the terms of tho lease. "This department pointed out In the re port of March 29, 1 DIG, that for competitive operation It Is absolutely essential that the Chestnut street subway be constructed In order that the city's lines may have a proper delivery and compete for business with the subway under Market street. T "As a competitor it Is necessary to so connect the lines and route the cars to secure for the city the maximum patronage possible. "On a competitive basis the lines must bo arranged to Induce the citizens to travel upon the city's lines so far as possible. and the plans as submitted to the Public VILLISTAS TAKE TOWN NEAR AMERICAN BORDER Guadalupe, Southeast of Juarez, Reported Captured by Band of Outlaws Service Commission for approval do not contemplate a competitive syBtem, but a supplemental system." In 'dlsousslng further the present form of the lease the director referred to the transit situation In Boston, where he spent several days last week. "In Boston," he said, "the city' has al ready put about 924,000,000 Into high-speed lints. Under the operating agreement with jthe Boston Elevated Hallway Company, the company guarantees tho city to pay all Interest and sinking fund charges upon the bonds sold for the construction of these lines. In addition, the company Itself has extended the hlgb-ape4d system begun by the city and has put about $32,600,000 of Its ownmony Into It." Under the terms of thP, It. T lease here".

Feb. 19. Guadalupe, thirty miles southeast of Juarez, hns been repoitcd captured by a band of Vllllstas under Manuel Ochoa, ncoordlng to reports reaching tho border today. A band of American cownoys, under com mand of Andrew Peterson. Sr., father of the American killed by the Mexicans In tho raid on the corner ranch last week, has invaded Mexico In an attempt to punish the bandits, according to advices here. The posse of Americans numbers 400, all fully armed WASHINGTON, Feb. 13. Reports that a band of cowboys has crossed Into Mexico to avenge the recent murder of American ranchers there has not been officially con firmed here early today. War Department officials express the hope that It Is untrue ns such action might complicate the gen eral situation. Ambassador Fletcher lias been Instructed to make peremptory demands on First Chief Carranza that he immediately send a com petent forco to stop Salazar and the other bandits who aro operating Just south of the International boundary. While officials refuse to discuss this order to the new Amcrloan Ambassador nnd some of the higher ones diplomatically deny It. It Is known that tho Administration expects thnt the presence of Ambassador Hetcher at Mexico City will bring about results which will give protection to Amer ican Interests. An Invas-on of Mexican territory, however, at this tlmej miirht nullify all expected benefits. ' WU Tho War Department today was getting trains to the border to expedite the return to their home stations of the various Na tional Guard units. They were hopeful that In nnother month the entire border patrol would be In the hands of the regular army. General Funston has reported that with his new dispositions ho will have sufficient men to prevent any organized raids across the International border. Lieutenant Colonel J. C. Waterman re ported from Pachlta' that a force of Car ranzlsta cavalry with machine guns was moving westward, apparently In an en deavor to cut oft the Halazar bandits, AMBASSADOR FLETCHER WELCOMED BY MEXICO MEXICO CITY, Mex., Feb. 19. For the first time In four years the Ameriean em bassy here was occupied today by a duly delegated Ambassador. Henry P. Fletcher, the new American Ambassador, reached here with his start last night. High offi cials of the Government greeted the party, Carranza soldiers lined the street from the station to tho embassy and presented nrms as the new Ambassador passed. Every courtesy was shown the embassy party on the long trip from the border. The train was met nt the border of each State by welcoming officials.
