official communication. AT daybreak
near Kopripkeui the combat was re-
sumed with renewed force when the
enemy launched against us troops con-

which, in their turn, were reinforced
from the garrison of that stronghold.
German officers commanded the
Turks.
In the afternoon the fighting as

Their attempted development of one
Of our TANKS failed, however.
Thanks to the valor of our troops,
we were able toward evening, when
the battle moderated, to hold all we
had previously conquered. One Of

Alaschkertska."

But this side Of the matter didn't
seem to weigh on His Honor's mind
with the acuteness Of the other side
with its sinister and political eoloring.
When Mr.. Whitehouse announced that
retrenchment in his department was
going to be made in every way pos
sible, the mayor nodded, feeling q
cloak of safety over his two sons.
They had been appointed at his re-
quest, and he no doubt felt they would
remain as long in the public employ
as he plans to, which Is q period Of
no short span.
But the axe. swinging without fear

necessary. in carrying out this deter
mination, TO give Sam and Joe their

As the mayor sees it-it Is the
throwing down Of the gauntlet to him.
To fire his sons simply because they
are Incompetent is almost an insult.
But what other reason did be-

HM'REYNOL DS STAND
ON CUBAN SUGAR WAS :
ANTICIPATED HERE

Little il any surprise was occasion
ed among local sugar men by the an
nouncement that Secretary Mercy
nolds of the treasury department had
handed down an Interpretation on the
Cuban tariff treaty by which Cuba's
sugar will continue to enjoy the pref
erential of 20 per cent under the gen
eral tariff on sugar, however much
this latter may uc reduced. The Star
Bulletins cable on the matter yes
terday, however, was read with much
interest, if not with surprise. With
out exception, the leading sugar men
stated today that under the treaty
with Cuba the United States had no
recourse.
But / don't think we shall notice
any effect from this decision said
enc prominent sugar factor head this
morning. Il believe that uRquestion-
ably this has been expected by sugar
men generally, and that its effect has
already been fully discounted in the
prices which we are now receiving.
OF course should this not be true, 1t
would be serious indeed, but Cuba's
big crop, and the conviction that the
20 per cent preferential would con-
tinue to apply, have already had
their greatest effect on prices.
