In a speech criticising Jhe Wilson, administration, especially In respect to Its foreign ipollcy. former Vnlted States Senator Elihu Root, as temporary chairman of the Republican state convention, sounded here, on Fefbruary 15, "what was regarded aa the keynote of the Republican national campaign. Mr. Root's The .flrgt part of Bpeech, which. was devoted to a consideration of the tariff and econoraio conditions, was received in comparative silence. When he opened an attack on President Wilson's' Mexican policy, lie was repeatedly Interrupted with aplause, however. The first (prolonged outburst of cheers came when Mr. Root, turning to European affairs, denounced the president's policy as one of making threats and falling to make them good. Mr. Root charged the (present administration with "the lack of foresight to make timely provlson for backing . up American diplomacy by actual or assured military force;" iwtth "the forfeiture of the world's respect for our assertion of rights by pursuing the policy of making threats and of falling to make them good;" and with "a loss of the moral forces of the civilized world through failure to truly interpret to the world the spirit of the American democracy in its attitude toward the terrible events which acoon&anied the early stages of the war." These, said Mr. Root, were the administration's "three fundamental errors." RIGHT TO ARM CONCEDED. United 8tates Csnnot Approve New Teutonic Policy. The United States, Washington. It was said by high authority at the state, department on Tuesday, con cedes that the entente allies are with tn their rights under prevailing Inter national law in arming merchant ships for- defensive purposes, no matter what oondltons exist on the Consequently it is admitted that should the alies decline to adopt the American suggestion to disarm merchantmen, founded primarily upon a desire to save the live of Innocent this government can not announce its approval of the intentions of the Teutonic powers to torpedo without warning after February 29 all armed vessels, although various high officials are convinced that the position of Germany and Austria is Justified. n CAUGHT IN BLAZING ' He Is Entirely Unwill. Ing to Enter Into Any Contest, But is Willing to Permit the Use of His Name. English Front, Heretofore Considered Impregnable by Allies, Broken In Drive Activity Renewed on Russian Front. Washington. President Wilson on Monday consented formally for the first time to the use of his name as a presidential candidate In the coming campaign. At the same time he declared he was "entirely unwilling to enter into any conteat" for renomina-tlon- . ip. This definition of the president's in line with the plans of his political associates, is expected to bring Into the open the campaign being made in his favor throughout the country. Mr. Wilson's declaration was made in a letter to the Ohio secretary of state, who had written that candidates for delegates from that state to the r.ntlonul conventions must signify their choices for president by February 25. and that no presidential candidates could be named in that connection without their consent. In several other states where no such requirements are Imposed, Mr. name already has been Wilson's placed on primary ballots, and his friends generally have taken it for granted that he would be a candidate If convinced there was any considerable popular demand for it. The president's letter follows: "While I am enUrely unwilling to enter Into any contest for the presidential nomination of the Democratic party, I arm willing to permit the use of my name that the Democrats tn Ohio may make known their preference in regard to that nomination. "In order, therefore, to satisfy the technical requirements of the statutes of the state of Ohio I hereby consent to the use of my name as a candidate for the presidency by any candidate who seeks to be elected a delegate to the national Democrrtlc convention, which la to assemble In June next." attitude, 'Copyrishi.i - BOPP AGAIN INDICTED.

Spread of Diseaae. The United States of the German government and warn Americans, not to take passage on armed merchantmen. Definite information that this is the Intention of president Wilson, and that an announcement to this e fieri will shortly be made to the state was forthcoming Sunday night from an authoritative source. In diplomatic circles discussion cen. tered on the probability of the president taking this course and Its inevitable consequences. Even the most conservative opinion holds that the resultant situation will Involve this country in a controversy with Great Britain which may easily prove to be the most troublesome and embarrassing of any the United States has yet had to fare. No one conversant with the facts In the case goes so far aa to forecast anything more serious growing out of tbs controversy than a loss of foreign trade. But that the United Slates must expect to suffer seriously In this respect If the German contention as to armed merchantment Is upheld by this government. Is considered Inevitable by best Informed statesmen. This last, it is pointed out, can be inflicted on American commerce by retaliatory measures, which it must be expected the allies will promptly take. If the United States prohibits the clearance from Its ports of armed merchantmen, the all It may be counted upon to reply by discontinuing the entrance into Americans ports of all kinds of their merchantmen.

Switching their offensive from the Artois and Champagne regions in France to the Belgian sector around Ypres, held by the British, the Germans have smashed their way by an artillery bombardment and infantry attacks Into a British front line trench over a distance of between 600 and 800 yards. Berlin gives the distance as 800 yards and the British official communication, In admitting the gain, asserts that it was on a ifront of about 600 yards. Berlin say that a majority of the defenders of the trench iwere killed and that one officer and several dozens of soldiers were taken prisoners. In the Artois region oetween Lens and Berthune the crater of a mine blown up toy the Germans was occupied by them, while the French guns have been busy shelling German organizations In the neighborhood of the iroad to Lille. The French also German positions near and to the northeast of Solasona. and in th Argonne exploded a mine and occupied the crater. In the Champagne district French troops have recaptured a portion of the advanced trenches occupied by the Germans on February 13, according to the announcement given out by the French war office. Berlin asserts French infantry attempts to regain lost positions north of Tahure were repulsed, as likewise was a similar attack In the Vosgea.
