RUSSIA SENDS HELP TO WESTERN FRONT [Continued From First Page] J embarked for France from the port I of Archangel on the White Sea, the | oily port through which there Is free i communication between Russia and j her allies In the West. It Is consid- I | ered probable that the transports! I carrying the troops made a wide i sweep out into the North Atlantic be- | fore heading for the Mediterranean to j avoid the submarine danger zone in 1 the vicinity of the British Isles. Aroliangel Closed In this connection it is to be noted that word reached New York to-day through private cable advices that Russia had closed the port of Arch angel to all except government traffic. This may indicate that other troop movements from Archangel to the western front are either under way or in contemplation. Several times during the war there have been reports that Russia was sending troops to the Franco-Belgian front, travelers even declaring that de tachments had been seen enroute through , Scotland and England. No such troops have ever appeared on the western battle line, however. French Make New Drive The French again have taken the offensive in the Verdun battle and | launched attacks against the German | lines on the right bank of the Meuse. , Paris declared the aggressive move was successful, resulting in the capture of portions of German trenches and a redoubt, and in the taking of several hundred prisoners. ! This operation on the part of Gen j eral Petain's forces follows closely a German mo've in a new field in the | struggle for the fortress. This took the form of a drive on the extreme ; right flank of the French forces in this [sector, three successive attacks being I delivered at Les Eparges, about 13 j miles southeast of Verdun on the edge I of the Woevre plain. Crown i*rince Frustrated | Military observers have long expect ed some such operations on the part j of the Germans as part of a squeezing j movement intended to force the eva ! cuation of the fortress. The new at | tempt was unsuccessful, however, | Paris has reported, the Germans hav ing been driven by a counter attack | out of the two hundred yards of j trenches they had succeeded in oc i cupytng. : According to a London dispatch the | British coalition government has been | given a new lease of life, a settlement | ha%'ing been reached in the cabinet ! crisis over the question of conscrip i tion. i A plot of wide scope conducted for the purpose of causing a revolution in India is announced from London to : have been uncovered as a result of ; the seizure last February of German and Austrian subjects on the liner I China. Immense Plot to Start Revolution in India Is Uncovered; Affects U. S. London, Wednesday, April 19. As the result of the seizure of the Ger man and Austrian subjects aboard the China Mail Liner, China, last February while bound from Shanghai for the j United States the intelligence depart ! ntent of the British government j claims to have uncovered a plot of | immense ramifications conducted with the purpose of causing a revolution in India. The American headquarters of the plotters is said to be on the Pacific "•cast. At least one ship is known to i have sailed from San Francisco with a German crew and Indian conspira tors and arms on board, j The headquarters of the plot in the : Orient was at Shanghai and when the ; trun-running and other machinations ! were uncovered, according to the authorities here, the plotters set sail for Manila aboard the steamship China.
