March 12.--Ofllclals ot' the American Government have decided that the time to be allowed the German raider, Prinz Eltiel Frecloricli, to repair nt Newport News shall remain an official secret. Wllctlier or not the vessel will be illterlied will probably not be tfecidcd lllltil the expiration of the tiliie limit. wllilrli is believed to be at least three weeks.

Stowe government how long ll time would be given the vessel to. make repairs. information was refused. however. on the ground that to reveal it would be to inform waiting hostile cruisers and deprive the Gelr of the usual oppor- tunity afforded under the rules of international law for escape from a to intern but to renew hor cruise, the United States will keep secret not only the time limit for repairs, but the hour oi’ ller departure. The belief pre- vails in ofhcial quarters that the vessel eventually will intern. though the decision of thscommander to have repairs made has been puzzling to officials here. because lt the ship does not put to sea it would be use- less to pay for temporary repairs. ` ._....._ » LONDON.

The mutual support which illdivldutll llilttzlliolls afforded each other during operations wus a mllrkell fl-atnrc of the attack. Our heavy artillery was very effective. Apart from observed results, the prisoners’ statelllcnts confirm the accuracy of ollr fire and the damage caused by it. i'lcl'0re noon we captured the Whole village ol' Neuve Chappele. Our in- fantry at once proceeded to confirm and extend the local advantage gained. Bydusk the wholelabyrinthot trenches on a frollt of 4,000 yards was in our hands. We had established ourselves about 1,200 yards beyond the ellemy’s advnliced trenches. The number of German prisoners were captllred and brought into headquarters during the day was 750. There are probably more t.o come. During the lltll the enemy made repeated efforts to re- cover the groulid, but all counter- attacks were repulsed with heavy losses. We continue-to make steady progress alld illlrd figlitlng continues. Tile local initiative displayed by our troops daily is admirable. lt says iniich for the spirit which auimates lilo llrlily :ind the success achieved on thc i0tli and 11th is a striking ex- ample.
