His cousin, I'hilllp, who was in the trenches, saw him when latell; hut was not certain as to his Identity. .Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., has cabled Col. Roosevelt irotn I'aris that it has not Is-en definitely established that <Jm-ntin is dead. ? lii-Ii. J'ershllig has included ill one of his reports tacts to the effect thai on last Monday American troops completely annihilated an entire Herman battalion. A battalion consists ot 1,<mit men in the tinted Stati s army and perhaps about th?- same in the Herman army. At any rate, this battalion bad crossed the Mann- opposite the Americans, and tin- Americans drove it back to tin- river bank, when: very man was either killed or captured. ? i'resident Wilson has agreed to tin enlistment of his personal stenographer, Charles Swem, and the young man will join the unity aviation service August 1. Swein has reported tin president's speeches and written hi* letters for more than live years.

Tl?- work of enrolling 1,000,00(1 women ot the tnlted States pledged to h?-II ono-half of the tourth Liberty loan of $6,000,000,000 was begun In ('hli-ago last Monday, at a conference oi representatives iroin j>iirts of tin country under the auspices of the national woman's Liberty loan committee. "So new dresses" was a slogan offered by Mrs. Kiln Flagg Young who in the absence of Mrs. W. <1, McAdoo, chairman of the national committee, presided at the conference "I have not had a new dress for the past three years." "So new hat ornaments." said Mrs. A. S. Baldwin ol San Francisco. "So new clothes lot tlie children or as few more as possible," said Mrs. Frank A. Vandcrllp number ot the national committee who explained that her own children are dressed in the blue denim ol French is-asant's sinocks. The women leaders of the nation emphasized that they must become fashionable t< aid the new loan so that they mlghl better the record in the last loan when to per cent of the total sale? were handled by women. ? Andrew itonar Law, British chancellor of the exchequer, on Monday night, described to the house of commons the progi<.-s of the lighting in France during the day. Here is tin dispatch that told the story: "Tin enemy attack early this morning on a front ol ninety kilometers, pretty evenly divided east and west ol Blieims. The city itself was not attacked. West of Bheims the tiermans penetrated on a trout oi 30 kilometers (33.37 miles) to an uveragt depth of from four to live kilometers South of the Maine, by a brilliant counter-attack, the American troop.drove tin- enemy back and took :i thousand or more prisoners. Kasl ol Bheims the enemy has been heavily repulsed and has suffered a complete check." Sir Walter Itiinciinan said that the house would wish to offei cumrratillations not only to the Frencl hut to the American troops, who hat justified theiiiselves, not for the llrsl time, on a eritieul oeeasion. Hefort reading the communication, Mr. Honor Ijiw said it liad readied him from the front shortly before 11 ok'lock "I may a?l?l," lie sairl. "in uihlition t< what I am going to reatl, that thr prim*' minister has t*ecn in telephonie communication with headtiuartcrs ami the re|*oit given him as cotninu from, tien. Koch is that he is well satisth'd with the results of today's lighting." ? When the Herman artillery preparation started on the night of the 14th says a dispatch from the American front. the Hashes lican thousands ol guns ?->*?? ... up tin- streets of Chalons, near. .. miles from the front. The French i^ plied with an equally powerful fire and everything for many miles trem hied until dawn, when the Herman in' fantry came over. The ndvanciti; waves were of great density, givinj the hunrlreds of French 75s a pom hlank target. At the same time smnl centers of resistance composed o French arlvanced isists ois-nerl tin with machine guns, which did tcrritli execution. These isolated detachments held up the enemy masses for severa hours, giving ample time for thei comrades guurding the line of resist mice to organize and bring into pta; all their means of defense. Then tin*! retired slowly at times being compel! isl to tight strong bodies of the enem* who hail succeeded in passing thei positions. Lieutenant Tram-hard, wit) . 25 men, was caught between th< French and Herman Imrrugcs ami re mnined lighting half the day. lb then cut his way through the eneiny'i lines at the isdnt of the bayonet am received the legion of honor on th< field. The perfect execution 01 < .en Gouraud's defense plans prevented tin enemy from making a breach at an; l>oLnt on this sector. although durinj IN hours the German crown princi sent three incessantly renewed wave! of his host troo|?s forward in the de termination to Ret through to Chalons ? The continued absence of rainfal throughout nearly the whole of tin cotton belt, together with excessivi temperatures In Texas and coo weather in the central ami eastori portions, made conditions gencrnllf unfavorable for rapid advancement 01 the cotton crop in most of the belt says the national weather and cro| ludletln, issued Wednesday for tin week ending July 16. "Cotton continu ed to deteriorate in central, westerr ami southwestern Texas, where dryhot weather persisted, but it is stil in fair to good condition in the northeast, and coast portions of that state The crop is looking well in most parts of Oklahoma, and showers were beneficial in Arkansas, where good growth was made. Ha in is needed in Louisiana. and some shedding Is reported from Mississippi. The crop continue* in good to excellent condition east ol the Mississippi river, but growth wa* unsatisfactory in much of Georgia, on nccount of the cool nights, which was also the case in the Carolinas, The continued dry weather, however, was beneficial in cheeking the activities of the boll weevil." ? Straight to the t'nited States senate. Madame Hotchknrova, the leadei of the Kussian battalion of death, carried her plea for Kussia last MondayShe spoke to a number of senators In the marble room, and said to them: "Russia can be saved. Sending 100.000 allied troops into Siberia would rouse the peasants to fight for freedom. More than 500.000 Russian troops would spring to arms." The fearless woman lender was wearing khaki uniform, her sword dangling at her side. Her decorations blazing upon her breust. Her straight, black hair, bobbed boy-fashion, accentuated sharply the broad outlines of her Slavonic face. "All the real heart of Russia hates Germany." she said. "The peasants want Germany beaten and thrown out of Russia. Russia cannot do it alone. Won't you help? Will you let me go back to Russia without a word to the people that America is coming? Russia is bleeding to death. In twenty years Germany will have Germanized Russia. German intiuence is not now rooted out. Germany will make war on you. and she would dominate the world if she wus allowed to dominate Russia. This is the psychological moment. You must lend your aid to Russia at once. Don't leave the Czecho-Slovaks in Siberia to their fate. If Russia perishes, so will you. If you do not assist us now, you are not our friend. I beg of you, send men and guns. Economic aid will be useless without military aid- I have been here two months now and I have made this same appeal to every department of your government. I received no response. You people seem to treat this matter coldly. I want your help. If I cannot get it I will go back and try to see what we can do alone. But we need your help desperately. Send the 100,000 men. I will throw my friends with them. Because Russia knows that back of me there is no political controversy. The peasants will not fear for they know me." Senator Thomas, or Colorado, asked If Madame Botchkarova would oppose or welcome Jap anese assistance In an expedition. "I I would welcome it," she said. "If there were not too many of them. I should think one-third would be a fair Japanese proportion In an expedition." The woman commander said she was unite sure she could raise 500.000 Uussian troops in and around Valdivostok, if an American force of loo.')<)? were landed there as a nucleus. "Then more and more would gather." she predicted. "For the heart of Hus?ia has not perirhed. She .s prortrate Olll> iieeail.se ol the treachery 01 the men higher up.' She assaih-d Kerensk\ for weakness. lie was a man without a will," she declaied. 'Wil> did not || aiTest Tin traitors I^enine and Trot/sky.' Why did he not stop their pro-Herman propaganda.

FRIDAY, JULY 19. 1918. If you have not on rolled, enroll now, ! today. j That mistake as to the date on which enrollment closes is a natural one. Although the situation in France looks good, it is very well to reincmher that t is stilTquite serious. | Hut after all, how could we expect ' the people of the state to he interested ^ in a campaign like this? ' Hut even if there H nothing especiali ly attractive about the ticket that is of1 fered to us, wo should vote all the same. How any individual can expect to get ' recommendation foi ' imsclf through the demerits of somebody else, it is i difficult to see. The American troops are new and untrained; but nevertheless they are delivering the goods, as the Hermans ' are finding out t ? their very great as' toiiishment. i The war industries board has sug1 gested the possibility that it may be . necessary to ration the consumption of I tobacco. This comes about because of the rapid decrease of imported stocks | and the necessity of supplying the ret inurements of the illicd armies and of our own army from America.

The Murman coast extends far into the Arctic circle. While Uussia was in the war immense quantities of military supplies were landed at Kola on this coast. There was no . railroad connection with the interior at that time and the building of a road was commenced. When Uussia broke down hundreds of millions of dollars worth of supplies had been landed; but the railroad was not yet completed. It was to protect these supplies that the Itritish and American troops were landed. It is believed, of course, that the Uolsheviki protest is at the instance of the Germans. That Great Britain or the United Suites will pay a great deal of attention to the Uolsheviki protest is not likely. "Christie Uenet, are you going to vote for Ulea.sc?" "Huh, vote for Ulcasc nothin'! No decent man would vote for I Mease!" "Hurrah for Christie Uenet. He's the man because he won't vote for Hlcnsc." "T. H. Peoples, are you going to vote for Kinase?" "That has nothing to do with this thing. I am a candidate on m.v record of service, not on the merits or demerits of any other man." I "He's a Ulcaseite and disloyal to | his country, because he won't express himself." Now. is this kind of thing not cali culated to make us feel proud of our country?this condition under which a man is qualified or disqualified according to whether he is going to vote . for or against some other man? \\ hy any kind of an tdiot might bo elected to otllce on that basis. Withdrawal of McLaurin. The withdrawal of Mr. Mel.aurin ' from the gubernatorial raw furnishes ; very little cause for surprise, and in , view of the shape his campaign has taken there is little cause for regret. We would like to have seen Mr. Mclviurin governor of South Carolina. I and at one time wo had great hopes that he would be governor; but these hopes have not been entertained since early in the campaign. That Mr. McLaurin is, in our opinion the most thoroughgoing statesman of his tiny anil generation in South Carolina, we have said time and again, and we do not hesitate to say it again. We think he has done mow for the people of South Carolina during the past ten years than has any other one man in the state, and we think he is capable of dotng a great deal more if he had the opportunity; but now that is all off. Mr. McLaurin had two great ends in view. One was to hfiter the economic condition of the people of South Carolina through the establishment of a just and equitable financial system that would guarantee to the producer his due enjoyment of the products of his labor. The other was to break down and destroy the factionalism that has so long operated against the best interest of the state and bring all patriotic people together for their higher welfare. He was fully capable of accomplishing both of these ends, more so than any other man of whom we have any J knowledge: but in spite of the unselfish patriotism of his aims and the splendid intellectual equipment he u was aide to bring to bear, his purpose was defeated by his own mistakes. Mr. McLaurin's mistakes were J purely b-clinical. What he had ac- j eoinplisheil and what he was capable oi accomplishing in the improvement ot i-conomk* conditions, were engag- J itig the attention of tin people of the state to a greater extent than the aehie\einent ot an> othei one man of his day. All the |?ople knew him, and all who were not directly inter- * sted in politics, were beginning to appreciate him at his true worth. t As the situation stood all Mr. Mcignirin had to do was to canvass the ^ state, county hy county, talk sound husiness doctrine to the people, and ' mill fiTit H Ifn-ri T S to members oi the crow iosi ineir uves. j VjiIi- university is bequeathed k nearly $2<UM)0.Vtl0 l?y the will of the * late John W.

Oline against the Southern railway. After the evidence was all in the court directed a verdict for the defendant. Tuesday aud Wednesday were given over to the fourth trial of the case D. f\. McKenzle vs. the Southern railroad, [n the action as commenced originally Holler & Hailey were Joint defendants. \t the last previous term of the court the Jury found ugainst Holler & Halley and made a mistrial as to the Southern railway. This time the Southern railroad was the only defending The evidence was about the same is in previous trial. The Jury took the paper Wednesday afternoon, remained jut all night und had not reported up jntil yesterday at noon. On yesterday the court took up the ase of Pendergrass against the Southern railway, a suit for damages on account of the killing of Alex Pender;rass under a freight train on the yard jf the Yorkville Cotton Oil company in May 30, 1916. The evidence wes ill in vesterdav when the cuurt ad iourned for the dinner hour and It was xpected that the arguments and the udge's charge would take up the balmce of the afternoon. MORE NEGROES FOR JACKSON Another Increment of thirty-seven n-grin-s from Local Hoard No. 2, left I'orkvillc yesterday morning for Camp lack-son. after quite appropriate exeriaes in the courthouse Wednesday light. The exercises in the courthouse reiv rather more elaborate than anyhing of the kind that has gone beorv. They were of the same general lature, however, consisting of singing nd speeches and a sentimental quoation* for and in behalf of each of the I rafted men. In order to secure money with which o pay expenses and with which to ntertain the drafted men. Rev. L C. Yiiey, in charge of the affair, charg<1 an admission fee at the door. This, lowever, had no discouraging effect ipon the attendance. The courthouse ias tilled to capacity and the audience racluded quite a number of whites. Seymour Carroll of Columbia, who lad been selected as the speaker of he occasion, failed to arrive and the irineipai speech of the occasion was Dade by Her. G. W. Jennings, who id not appear to be altogether pleasd with the programme. He said here was no need for a man like Carol! to make a speech as there were lenty of people at home who could peak to the negroes better. He also riticised the charging of admission, aying that an occasion like this, ike salvation, should be free, and the ilea of making people pay to see raierican citizens as if they were a :>t of monkeys struck him as out of lace. He said that the Almighty's urjose In sending the war was, among ther things, to elevate the negro to he full and free citizenship to which ie is entitled. The names of the thirty-seven ntiroes w ho went off yesterday morning re as follows: Dave Armstrong, Chartie Anderson, miah Adams. Sam Archie, Claode turris, John Brown. James CIyburn, v. ,iMr cuss, abuse, vilify anil misrepresent its nineli as tliey might chouse. He g would have been elected governor as surely as there was an election. lint the first tactical mistake was I made last winter. When Mr. Mellaril) let loose his open letter against V Illonse and Tillman, he not only failed to injure either Mease or Tillman; hilt lor the time heing he divided the minds of the people who were inter sled in him from the things he was ( aching to factional jtolitics, the thing for which he has such great " n antipathy. This had about quieted down when the campaign opened and still Mr. ' Mi l,aurin had a line chance to win; 1 hut again In- ruined that chance with another letter similar to the first. There was very little use in that Anll-ltlease-i'ooper letter. If it were ' a fact ttiat Mr. Cooper was trying to f in jure Mcl.'iurin hy the use of a secret letter, and it is not clear that lie was ** not. Mr. Mclgiurin should have left ' the matter to the |x-oplc and they t1 would have taken care of him, he- ' cause of the worth he hud already Iproved himself to he to them. The l.est way to have accomplished the destruction of factionalism was , for Mr. .Mel.aurin to have gone on and s secured his election to the governorship. and made good his promises. If v lie could hale done for the people what lie said lie could do. reduce their j taxes, and still further improve their , economic condition, and we believe he | could have done both of these, then .Tactionalisui would have fallen to the t ground because of its own rotten fit- , tility. I We sincerely regret the unfortunate . outcome of Mr. Melgiurin's Candida- { cy. anil now that lie is no longer to be looked to to achieve the tilings for which lie stood, we are at a loss to know where to look for the advance- ' no lit of those things.

The dictum of the state tax commission adding 15 per cent to the assessed valuation of York county farm land as fixed by the county hoard of equalization, will stand. This was the outcome of a meeting of \V. G. (Juerry and J. i\ Derham of the state tax commission with the members of the county board of equalization in the courthouse last Tuesday. The county board of equalization, it will be remembered, some time back decided that $5.42 was about right as the average assessed valuation of York county land; but the state tax commission raised this figure 45 per cent and settled upon $7.95 as the proper average assessed valuation for York county land. Under the conviction that the state lax cuiiiiui^aiuii a ugurva were inequiiable beyond all reason, the board sought to appeal; but pretty soon found that the state board of tax review and the tax commission were not far from the same thing, and gave up the appeal as hardly worth while. The meeting Tuesday was for the purpose of talking the matter over so that the members of the equalization board might come to a clear understanding of the commission's position. The desired object was attained. The equalization board was convinced that the equalization must be about right so far as land values are concerned; but some of the members are still a fittle dubious as to whether the land owners are not going to be called upon to bear a much larger projiortion of the burdens of the government than is their just share. Messrs. Derham and Querry explained tHe procedure of the tax commission about like this: We have not undertaken to fix an arbitrary assessment upon you; but we have arrived at our assessment on a basis of your own valuations. How? Why we went over the census reports made up from your own statements to the census enumerators, and also we have been over your record of transfers of real estate for a number of years post, making due comparison between values as established at auction sales, and values as established through transfers from one owner to another. We have collected this same information from every county in the state, and the assessed valuation here established for York county are In as equitable proportion as it is possible to arrive at with reference to assessed valuations in other counties. The members of the commission explained further that while on a basis of the new assessed valuation, the levies as fixed by the general assembly will raise a great deal more money than will be required for state and county purposes, this situation will be taken care of by a flexible levy provided for by an act of the last general assembly. This act referred to, only applies to the state levy; but It is suggested that the auditor will be safe in adjusting the county levy to the new jfefo . .. requirements In the assurance that th< legislative delegation will back him ui in the matter. After hearing the explanations o Messrs. Derham and Querry, the mem l?ers of the equalization board adopte< a resolution in which they accepte* the action 04 the state tax commls sion and Instructed the auditor to pro c? ed with the work of putting farn lands on his liook at the valuation! proposed by the commission. it is understood that the increase assessed valuation a|>plies only t< farm lands. Other kinds of real estab are not included, and neither is cor IMirate pro|?erty. The state levy as llxed by the pen erni assembly for this year is 91-: mills on the dollar and the count; levy is 9 3-4 mills on the dollar. Th( county levy is to raise about $90,001 for all purposes, the state levy wil raise a few thousand dollars less. Thi constitutional 3 mill school tax ant the special school levies will raise ap proximately $90,000. While on a basis of the increase* assessed valuation the flexible stab levy may be adjusted to raise th amount required, and the exces over county requirement* can also b provided for, the amounts that wil b?? raised by the special school levie ami the constitutional 3 mill tax wil necessarilx he much larger than the have been heretofore.

Gov. Andrew J. Bethe another candidate for governor, wh was attempting to get his opponenl either to indorse or to repudiate tl reputed utterances of Blease at I't maria on July 27, 1017, in which t1 former governor is quoted as sayir that the blood of the American so diers slain in France will be on tl head of President Wilson and tl members of congress who voted f< the war, as an unwarranted sacritlc At the commencement of his speet the lieutenant governor requested M Richards to rem: in on the ctand as 1 had some questions to ask him. Fo lowing a few preliminary remarks 1 ' mud Dm iteyrut Hi mwHorml Ml ed "I ask Mr. Richards If he indors the sentiments of and the words e: pressed by Cole L.

M Bethea said that he had not mat tin- issue, hut it had been raised t t.'ole L. Blease and by him alone ar it wan an issue. "Do you mean to charge either d rectly or infercntlally," asked Ricl aids, "that I am disloyal to my coui try?" Mr. Bethea said that he mere asked the question to bring out tl Lllierty Hill man's attitude on tl published utterances of Blease ar certainly did not charge nor sugge anything against his loyalty. "I believe every man in South Can lina," said Richards, "is loyal to h country and 1 believe if nccessai every one of them, including M lib-use, win bare his breast to tr enemy. I do not believe there is traitor in South Carolina. If yc want to bring up this kind of (pie! lion you should go to the right forur the race for the United States senat I defy you to do it and you know yc won't." With these words Itiehan took his seat. Kepeating his former querry, Hethc said that Richards hud not iinswcri his (piestion. Richards then jumped I his feet, pointed his linger at the liei tenant governor and said: "I want 1 tell the lieutenant governor that have one son and three nephews in tl service who have offered their llvi to their country. The licutenai governor is in the military age and want to ask why he has not donnt the khaki?" Stating that he would not stand f< the insults and insolent questions < the lieutenant governor any longe Richards left the stand and advance down the side aisle.

The lieutenant goi ernor said that he did not know, bi read an account published in tt Charleston American of last Saturda telling of the Blease meeting at Wag ener last Friday in which Mr. Bleat was quoted as indorsing the Candida cy of Mr. Richards and which sai there was tumultuous applause whe Major Richards stated that the formi governor would be elected to th United States senate. Mr. Bethej stating that he took that as an Ir dorscment of the candidacy of Col L. Blease by Major Richards, sai< "However, there is Major Richard* let him answer your question." "Whi is wanted of* me now?" asked Rich ards as he came back on the stan< "Mr. Jaynes wants to know if you In tend to vote for Cole I* Blease fc the United States senate," replied th lieutenant governor.

When Chair man J. E. Hopkins put the question number of the audience stood an Major Richards told them he woul declare himself. He prefaced hi statement by saying that Bethca wa a defeated candidate for governor an he wanted to injure Richards an bolster himself with such tactics. H stated that he had joined the rank of the Reformers in 1890 and ha stood unswervingly by those princl pies ever since. He believed that th government is drifting from the mass es of the people where it belongs an is uecoming aominaiea oy ii* cuuwei "I Believe Cole I* Blease is th friend and hope of the poor ma of which I myself am one." he con tinued.

July IS.?The war office any nounced at noon that the French and e Americans had started an offensive J over a thirty mile front, extending t, front Fontenay, on the north hank of 1 the Aisne. just west of Sols sons, to Helleau Wood, immediately northwest j of Chateau Thierry. The French and 0 Americans advanced a distance of e two miles in some places, taking H many prisoners, field and machine II guns. This offensive is norinwewi s the present German drive, which l>oII gun with a feint on the \S<ux sector, * switched main attack into the eastern district , between Kheims and Argonne forest. GERMANS MEET THEIR MATCH ' Fifth Great Drive Held Cloee to the Starting Point. The fifth German drive, which was e commenced during the early hours of last Monday morning, was definitely stopped within five hours after it was started. The fighting, however, is still n going on in the form of fierce local n battles, some of them of great magnitude and while the situation looks most * encouraging for the allies, it is still too early to say what is going to be the outcome. i, The line of the drive was over a e front of a little more than fifty miles, j extending from Vlllers Cotterets on the n' west to the Argonne forest on the cast. In all some sixty divisions, or close to SOU,000 men were engaged, and in every feature is tho fiercest and most desperate drive that has yet been attempted. The attack was opened with a terrific bomburdmeut, said to be the heaviest that has ever yet been elTeet* ed. An unusual feature of it was the use of large numbers of long range ?* naval guns, placed back of the enemy te lines, and throwing shells for a dls>' tance of twenty-five miles into allied territory. The French had advance informa' tion as to the hour and place of the attaek and opened with their artillery a '* full hour before the enemy was readily to begin, thus causing heavy loss and IP disarrangement of enemy plans, it Tho allied line was defended by >r ? - --.1 llnllana A r ri'nuni aiiivi-ivuiw a?u IS section of the line wus under inden pendent American command, and In a. other sections the Americans were lo sandwiched in between French and ts Italians under French command. >- The Germans had twenty or twentye five divisions onat of Hhelms and iK about the same number west of I- Kheims.

In the id advance of the Germans a number of Americans were captured; but within i- a half hour Americans advanced to the i- counter attack and recaptured most of t- the American prisoners in German l>" hands. The Americans made three counter attacks one after the other, M* and drove most of the Germans back across the* river. sl Semi-official estimates of Wednesday placed the .German losses at not J* less than 100,000 and although the Germans were claiming to have taken 18.000 prisoners, the allies wero not willing to concede losses of anything like such a number. German prisoners IU In the hands of the allies numbere<l t 3.000 and of these more than half had n been taken by the American'. ,/ Airplanes figured in the battle to a m* larger extent than in any previous bati-. tie. There were morn t!,nn 100 low Hying airplanes in one single allied ,a group. These dropped many tons of .j explosives on the German reserves In t0 the rear as well as on masses of troops actively engaged in the fighting and to did very considerable execution. I Although the Germans are still atie tacking the allied lines viciously on both sides of the Itl.eims salient, what it gains they are making continue to be I small ones on Isolated sectors and are d seemingly confined to the region along the Murne and Immediately southwest >r of Rheims. Ji Eastward from the cathedral city r. through Champagne, the French re'd port that they are everywhere holding i- the enemy and keeping their lines In>c tact, notwithstanding the prodigious expenditure of shells by the Germans in and the determination with which their *r troops are delivering their thrust. I- Everywhere the battles are being M* stubbornly contested and where the ' French and Italians have been comII pelled to give ground it has been only after the infliction of extremely heavy casualties on the invader. The Ameri'* cans nowhere have been forced to withdraw. On the contrary near Fossoy, near the bend of the Marne be' tween Chateau-Thierry and Dormans, ,r they have made further improvements In their positions. Like their French comrades in arms, the Americans also ' have been engaged in violent fighting I* with the enemy. ,1 Daily It becomes Increasingly appareut that the strategy of the German (t high command in the present battle has foremost in Its consideration the blotting out of the Rheims salient and i- the straightening of the line eastward ?r through champagne toward Verdun. ie The hardest fighting of Tuesday was southwest of Rheims, where the enen my is endeavoring to break through y the hill and forest region, reach the - railroad running from Rheims to o Epernay and force the evacuation of 3. Rheims. i- In these endeavors the German war * ' office asserts that the Germans have '* driven back the allied troops on the a mountain of Rheims between Mantenal d and north of Pourcy, the last place bed ing a scant five miles distant from the ^ Rheims and Epernay railroad. The " French official communication admits d that the Germans hold the lin^west of d Manteuli-La Fosse, about a mile and a ;e half south of Pourcy and relatively five - mura wet>L 01 ine rauroaa. It Is reported that French reserves ~ have entered the fighting along the Marne and to the north of La Chapj elle-Mont Hodon they have recaptured s lost territory. The Germans also, as e was expected, have brought up fresh n forces In an endeavor to press forward . their project in this region. There Is a r. veritable deluge of shells from the e guns of both sides along the entire s Marne front. ir On the British front in northern e France and Flanders the Germans are a keeping up violent bombardments on s various sectors, using both gas and - high explosive sheila Gas has been e used extensively on the Vlllers-Breh tonneux sector, where the British for r. several days have been delivering sucr. ccssful patrol attacks and taking prlsL on era The Albert sector Is coming in for an increased shower of shells r of all klnda Nowhere, however, has r. the German command seen fit as yet to start an infantry engagemem ? v..* is contemplated.
