Accompanying his resignation Gener-

sion of the union but denied that such
an invasion had occurred and charged
that the British movement against Ger

Germans.

THREE BRITISH
CRUISERS ARE SUNK
German Submarines Attack
British Fleet, Cruisers Are
Blown to Pieces

London, Sept. 22.-German submar.
ines have sunk three British armored
cruisers, the official war information
bureau announced today.
The lost vessels were tle Aboukir
the HOgue and the Cressy.
It was stated that considerable
number of the members of the crews
were saved but exact figures were un.
obtainable.
The North sea was the scene of the
disaster.
The Aboukir, on patrol duty, was the
first ship struck. As the German tor
pedo exploded under its hull, the Hoge
and Cressy started to the rescue of the
survivors floating in the water.
They were lowering their boats when
fresh tOrpedOes, launched by the Ger
man submarines, reached them and sent
both to the bottom.
The three cruisers wore blown almost
to pieces, the war information bureau
stated, but there were many des stroyers
and trawlers in the vicinity and the
work of rescue was prompt. as
The misfortune was the greatest to
tine navy since the war began and hor.
rified the country Many persons
rushed to the admiralty to beg for de-
tails, but it was replied that all the
naval authorities knew had already
been made public.
The cruisers cost approximately $4,-
100000 each.
The disaster was believed to have oc-
CURED near the spot where Admiral
Beatty of the British navy recently
sank several German walships off He'll
goland blight. 1t was known that the
cruisers had been scouting in that vi
rinity in search of the main German
fleet.
Whether or not the German submar-
inc escaped was not known.
The British everywhere were tremen-
dously aroused and clamcred for speedy
vengeance

Van Kluk's Inability to Ad-
vance After Being Rein
forced Looks Bad
EXPERTS SAY GERMANS
ARE AT END OF STRING
Germans Fortifying Rhine
Also Indicates They Will
Return to Defensive

London, Sept. 22.-The Fran.
co-British allies hammering was
believed by military experts here
today to be breaking the German
lines in France at last.
The experts were also of the
opinion that his reinforcements
failure to enable General Won
Kluk to resume the offensive
proved the kaiser "near the end
OF his string" as one authority
expressed it.
1t was stated that the German
tight was being pushed back at
the rate Of four miles daily and
several newspapers published
nnconfirmed rumors that Cen
cral Won Kluk had withdrawn
his headquarters to Mons, Bel
gium.
The British war office had no
knowledge of such a develop
ment, however, and doubted the
reports accuracy.
Another and better authenti-
Gated report was that the Ger
man government had prohibited
Dutch shipping to ascend the
Rhine beyond the frontier. This
was interpreted that the German
Rhine defenses were being
strengthened, presumably for a
defensive fight along that line.
That the kaiser's commanders
were determined to raze Rheims
was considered evident.
A dispatch from there to the
London Daily Telegraph said
hardly a house was standing in
the cathedraPs vicinity. "The
masonry of the cathedral has
been Clipped" continued the
message, "and its carved figures
and gargoyles have been broken.

concussion of the explosions.

OPINIONS RENDERED
BY ATTORNEY GENERAL

A school district receiving tuition for
a pupil from another district is not en-
titled to the regular appOrtionment
frem the high school fund of the coun-
ty, according to an opinion given out
by Attorney General Crawford today
in reply to D. NJ. Roberts of Gresham.
A district is entitled to either the tut
tion or to the apportiOnment, but not
to both.
B. w. Barnes, of Hillsboro, county
school superintendent of Washington
county, was informed that a school dis
triet having no high school might con
tract with district having a high
school for the instruction of the pupils
of the first district.
C. G.. Brown, clerk of the state land
board, was informed that the transcript
of proceedings of District No. I3 in Co.
lumbia county authorizing the sale of
$4,000 in school bonds was regular.
The bonds are held TO be legal and con-
stitute an obligation against the dis.
triet.
