GEIRMANY T OFO1tCE PEACE WITH SWORD Kaiser lenews ills Promise of Victory for Teutonic Arms. Two sections See Jlilitary Activity. Sinperor Williami of Germany, re peated on his 58th birthday anniver sary Saturday his promise previously made to the German army that Ger many wohid enforce peace with the sword. His message was sent to 1er lin from the German 'general head quarters in reply to birthday congrat ulations, according to German news j>apers. The emperor's declaration was made in the face of expectation in some of the entente capitals that he would make a notable peace move in an address he was expected to de liver at a meeting of Teutonic states men, military and naval leaders, as sembled at the headquarters to cele brate the anniversary. The vicinity of 11i11 304, In the Ver dun sector, and the Riga region of the northern Russo-German front con tinue to be the chief centres of mili tary activity. After subjecting the German defense works at Eparges and Hill 304 to an intense bombard ment, the French attacked the trenches recently occupied by the Ger mans, but, according to the Berlin war ofilce, the attack failed with heavy losses. Fresh Russian troops have rein forced the line east of the River Aa in the Rliga district, but were unable to drive the Germans from ground they recently captured. On the otil er hand, German attempts to throw back the Russian line in the vicinity of Kalnezenm. were unsuccessful. The artillery has been active on the Franco-Bielgian battle line between the Somme and' the Ancre rivers, as well as In the vicinity of Riga. After 11 hours of desperate fight ing, the Roumnanians have forced backward the Teutonic troops south of the Kasino and Suchitza valleys, in Moldavia. Activity on the other fronts is lim ited mainly to artillery duels, trench raids and aerial combats.
