GET GERMANY'S FINAL
DECISIONBY SUNDAY
Question of War or Peace Will Be Set-
tled by Anniversary of
Lusitania Sinking
Berlin, via Amsterdam, May 3.-
"Next Sunday, the anniversary of the
sinking of the Lusitania, will witness
the final decision of the question of
war or peace between Germany and
the United States"
This statement is made on the basis
of information, the fullinature of which
the correspondent is not permitted to
disclose. It is made, however, on ab-
solutely reliable authority.
This does not mean that Germany's
answer to President Wilsdn's last
word on the submarine question may
not be despatched to Washington to-
morrow or Friday. What it means
is that within four cays mie crisis be-
tween. Germany and America will be
definitely ended. or will have devel-
oped into a diplomatic break:and pos-
sibly war.
It was hinted here by a high' foreign
office official this afternoon that if
Sunday should have been picked for
the day of the climax-which he did
neither deny nor confirm-it was done
at the suggestion of the American gov-
ernment. Such a suggestion, how-
ever, if it was made, could have been
possible only after Washington had
been privately informed by Ambassa-
dor Gerard that the German answer

Highty Redmen
on the Warpath
)[embers of the Paleface Nation Come
at Last to State of
Warriors
Listen to this tale of romance,.
Tale of Indian warriors bold.
In the early moon of Green Leaves
Came they forth, the stoics valiant.
Forth they romped to Great Chief's
wigwam,
But he came not forth to greet them.
Long belov'd but now departed
Dwells he now with Manitou.
Round the mighty oak of Tappan
Circled Michigamua's red men;
Circled yelling, screaming Indians;t
In their war paint, colors flying.
Round the tree of Indian legend r
Stood the white men, pale and tremb-
ling;
Warrior's choice of paleface nation;t
Choice of tribe to run their gauntlet.
Down the warriors, painted demons,
Swooped and caught their prey, liket
eagles.
Loud the war cry stirred the stillness,r
As they seized their hapless captives.E
Forth they bore them to their wigwam.
There to torture at their pleasure,
There all ate round glowing campfire.
Heard the words of mighty wisdom,
Smoked the pipe of peace and friend-
ship,
Thus there came to Michigamua

French Win Lines
at Le Jvort Homme
Take Additional German Trenches on
West Bank of River, With 1
Many Prisoners
Paris, May 3.-The French counter
offensive at Le Mort Homme, the im-
portant height on the west bank of the
river in which progress was made on
several occasions last week, resumed
late this afternoon with an assault
which won further German positions
and gave the French about 100 pris-
oners. The extent of the trenches oc-
cupied has not yet been announced.
There was a violent artillery bom-
bardment today in the Avocourt sector
but this was not followed up by an in-
fantry attack. Three companies of
German infantry, about 750 men, were
used last night in a small attack made
on French positions in the Argonne
between La Harazee and Le Four de
Paris.
This attack of last night, although
participated in by' only a small body
of troops, was preceded by a lively
bombardment with gas shells. It was
successful for the moment. The Ger-
mans gained a foothold in advanced
French trenches but they were unable
to hold them and had to retire, suf-
fering heavy losses.

Secretary of Ireland is Blamed for
Failure to Prevent
Uprising
London, May 3.-As the sun rose
over the high grim walls of the Tower
of London today it witnessed down in
the historic execution court, the last
act of the drama of the "Easter Re-
public of Ireland," played to the tune
of rifle bullets from four successive
firing squads that snuffed out the
lives of the four chief rebel leaders,
who eight days ago had raised the
curtain to let rebellion play its piece
of terrorism unconfined.
Patrick H-. Pearse, "the provisional
President nof Ireland," James Connel-
ly, "commander-general of the Irish
republican army," Thomas J. Clark,
and Thomas MacDonah, court mar-
tialled and convicted of treason, were
shot to death to pay the penalty of
their Easter dream.
In a cell not far from the scene of
the execution sat Sir Roger Casement,
a prisoner in the Tower awaiting trial
for treason. The rifle shots could be
plainly heard in the silent prison
room of the knight who was arrested
a few days before the rebellion broke
out while attempting to land arms
from a German auxiliary on the Irish
coast.
Accepts Birrell's Resignation
Shortly after Premier Asquith, in
opening this morning's session of
Parliament, had announced the fate
of the four Sinn Fein leaders, Augus-
tine Birrell, chief secretary for Ire-
land, handed in his resignation. The
premier promptly accepted it. Birrell
explained he was laying down his of-
fice upon having been assured that
the insurrection had been quelled.
Subjected to bitter attacks in parlia-
ment and in the press from the mo-
ment of the Dublin outbreak, Birrell's
position had become untenable. The
chief grievance' against him. was that
on the day the rebellion broke out he
had assured the government and par-
liament that the situation was well in
hand. The attack grew in scope and
fervor, as the rebellion pressed
through the week instead of subsiding
instantly and there were many who
blamed him directly for the whole sit-
uation, charging, him with a lack of
foresight and unpreparedness to meet
such an emergency.
