Progressive Party Candi- dates Get Great Reception ill Lower Valley - Dry Amendment Stand Ap- plaudingly Approved
Special to The Republican,

h.
 BUCKEYE, Ariz., Oct. 16.-The residents of the Buckeye valley turn eQ out tonight and gave a most en- thusiastic reception to the progress sive candidates and speakers on the cceas1on of their visit here. The new hall was filled with voters a large number of whom were women, who listened with interest to the promises of clean business-like government made by the speakers and applauded to the echo every proposition that showed just how strong the progress sive IaTty is for clean, honest gov Crnment and the best moral conGi- ti0ns for all citizens. Especially was this true of the applause following references to the stand of the p@.sy on tine Dry Amendment. Every mer- tion of it was cheered to the echo, showing just how strong the senti- mcrt here is for that admirable pro- position.
 Walter Jones presided over the meeting and introduced the candi- dates all of whom were present ex- cept Capt. J. E. Noble of Mesa who has but lately returned from a long and hard trip to Fort Riley. Dr. J. Bernard Nelson of Mesa, candidate for United States senator was the first speaker and he made an ex- cellent impression. He suggested government aud for the treatment of tuberculosis, a matter that took i'm mediate hold of the audience, and said that the transportation of tuber- cular subjects between states should be matter for government regula- ton. Miss Sara M. Whitfield, candi- date for county superintendent or schools, who followed Dr. Nelson, quite captured the crowd both with her speech and her evident fair mind edness, as well as her grasp of the problems that are confronting the

 The index shows the amount was paid for campaign purposes" said Sharwood, but I am unable to find correspondence in the file respecting the matter. The file has disap- peared"
 Two other vouchers for $1O,0O0 each, were also offered iE evidence and Sharood said there was no in formation obtainable as to the use for which that money was spent.

BOTH FORCES AT SEA PREVENTS
 OUTfL fLANK|NG
To Win Success One or the Other of the Opponents Must Break Through the Line of Army Arrayed Against It
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCHl

LONDON, Oct. 16.-An official communication issued from the French war office this afternoon says the allies left has reached the sea. and confirms the progress of the allies reported yesterday. r does not indicate at what part of the coast the allies fighting line reaches the sea. but the nearest point is ? miles from Ypres, and close to the Franco Belgian frontier. This, how cver is much nearer Dunkirk than Ostend, which the Germans are re- ported to have occupied. The pre- sumption, based on knowledge of the German movements, is that the line of the allies is in a more northerly direction and consequently is nearer thirty than twenty miles in length. The line would seem. to be a bar to the advance of the Germans along the coast, which doubtless was their plan when their cavalry made the dash toward Calais.
 With both belligerent lines reach ing the sea there now can be no at tempts at outflanlling by either army. To win success one or the other of the opponents must break through the line and the army having inc greatest number of men, and the ability to move them to a chosen point seemingly has the better chance

The Cruiser Hawke is Sunk by German Submarine in Northern Waters and But Few of Her Crew Escape Death
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcH1

LONDON, Oct 16.-One more keel has been added to the British naval losses in the war, the cruiser Hawke having been sunk by a German suD- marine in northern waters yesterday. As in the case of others ships which the Germans have destroyed by means of submarines, only few of her crew escaped. The Hawke, like the Abou- kir, Greasy and Hogue, the three other cruisers which met the same fate, was Chatham ship, so that town is again in mourning
 The cruiser Thesais, which also was attacked by the same submarine that sunk the Hawke, Obeyed the Spartan but necessary instructions issued by the admiralty when so many lives were lost through the Greasy and Hosue going to the assistance of the Abou- kir when the latter was torpedoed and turned away from the perishing crew of the Hawke.
 Of the ill fated vessels crew three petty officers and 49 men are reported to have been rescued by a trawler while one officer and 20 men are said to have escaped on a raft The Hawke is believed to have had aboard a crew of 400 men. The submarine which sank her is supposed to have escaped.
 The admiralty announces that addi- tional survivors of the cruiser Hawke consisting of Lieut.. Commander Roso- man and twenty men were saved by raft.
 Nothing further has been heard of movement Of the Russian and TUrkid1 fleets in the Black Sea. Constanti- nople denies a report which never ex- tended beyond that city, to the effect that the former German cruiser Breslau which now flies the Turkish flag, had been sunk.

Fulfillment of Promise That Pressure Would Be Taken Off France and Belgium is Again Put Off Indefi- nitely
GERMANS NOW
 BEFORE WARSAW
While Their Advance to Nieman Was Failure, the Kaiser's Forces Seem to Have Retrieved Some of the Austrian Defeats
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

LONDON, Oct. 16-Fulfillment of the promise that pressure would be taken off France and Belgium when a big battle would commence Tn the east. has again been delayed. The Germans are before WarsaW-in fact fighting has taken place only eight miles from that city While their advance to Nie- men was a failure, the forces of Elm peror William apparently have re- trieved some defeats of the Austrians in Galicia and advanced as far as Ja- roslau, r miles northwest of Przemysl.
 The German plan seems to be to have two armies advance along the left bank of the Vistula while two other armies swing around on the right bank to take the defenders of Warsaw on their flank. This according to Russian ac- counts, suits the Russian general staff, who are said to purposely have with drawn to Vistula so they could have the railways at the back, while the Austro- German forces would have to advance great distances on roads which this time of the year are little less than quagmires.
 Both sides claim to have gained ad- vantages in the preliminary fighting, but these victories and defeats can have little effect on the general result of the battle in which it is estimated nearly 5,O00,O0O men are engaged. The Russians are said to have 2,50O,OO0 men and the Austro- German forces are de clared to total nearly 2,000,000. The armies cover a front nearly three hun- dred miles in length.
 The battle on the East Prussian frontier has ceased. The two armies are facing each other across the border, both doubtless being satisfied to re- main where they are until the chief battle in Poland is decided. This may not be for months, although the Ger mans, it is said will attempt to gain a quick victory in order to release their troops for the western campaign.
 It is reported here the Germans have been driven from Lille" dispatch to the Daily Mail from Bouiogne says, under date of Friday.

FROM BATTLEFRONT, via Paris, Oct. 16-The attempt by the Ger mans to tu1n the flank of the allies and obtain possession of the ports Cf Ostend, Dunkirk and Calais has Leen unsuccessful, for the Germans came .face-to-face with the strong opposing allied army which compelled them to fall back after severe fight ing. What is known as the march ing wing" of the allied army is con- tinually in contact with the German troops and completely covers the ap- proach to the coast towns. When they fought pitched battle west of Lille, the Germans were forced to make a marked retirement from La ventie in the direction of Lille, their occupation of which last Tuesday by thirty thousand men appears des- tined to be of short duration.
 The line of the battle of the north" extends over the most his toric ground in Flanders. where on the field of the cloth of gold' Francis l. and Henry VIII had their celebrated meeting in 1920. Owing to the sinuous character of the line of battle, the total length of it, fror: the coast of Belgium to the Swiss border now reaches nearly 960 miles.
 Belief in their final success appears to have taken firm hold of the allies. All men display confidence in their commander, who is doing everything possible to spare the troops. The all lied soldiers are fighting with vigor. They often perform marches which seem beyond human power. This IS made evident often when small de- tachments are acting apart from the main body.
 The French dragons were recently entrusted with the task of covering the passage of the river by artillery They met a body of German Hussars in clash. Both sides charged simul- taneously and the melee lasted ten minutes, during which the men slash ed and pierced each other with swords and lances while the officers revolvers cracked Finally the Huss ars broke ranks and galloped of, leaving many of their men on the field. The dragons also suffered sev- erely but attained their object, that of securing safe passage for their comrades
 French officers in the immediate vicinity of the firing line recently were amazed to see two motor cars containing seven children, all under ten and two grown persons, enter the battle zone. Across the glass shield on one of the cars in French were the words "In the Service of the Ambassador of the United States"
