FRENCH CHECK
NEW ATTACKS :
ON RIGHT WING
Fierce Assaults by Germans
in the ArgOnne Are
Repulsed.
YPRES on FIRE UNDER
HEAVY COMMANDMENT

Special Gable Drspdfcb 10 THr srN.
PARIS. Nov. Abandoning for the
present their efforts to crush the Allies
in Belgium the Germans are forcing the
lighting in northeastern France in the
region OF Verdun. Yesterday and to-
day they delivered heavy infantry at
lacks in the Argonne. The official
announcements by the French Govern
ment state that all these attacks were
repulsed after very hot lighting.
II would appear from the official re-
ports that new crisis has developed at
the east Of the line. 1t is assumed here
that the Germans have reinforced their
troops operating in the Argonne ana
have commenced u determined cam
paign to advance siege guns within
range Of the Nerdun forts. Tho latest
news is that the force in the Argonne
is comma ndcd by the Crown Prince.
Several factors account for the now
attack in this region. The failure to
make progress in Flanders. the neccs-
slty OF weakening the Allies strength
at the west end of the line. the peril of
the advanced German position at -.
Mih!cl on the Mouse and the progress
Of the French offensive in Alsace ac-
count. supposedly. for the violent on
slaughts north of Nerdun which are
mentioned in to-day's official reports.
In Belgium and northern France the
battle seems to have settled down to
constant and destructive cannoradng.
the Germans centring their lombard
ment on Ipres and nearby villages, on
positions northeast OF scissors and on
Rheims. in the east centre OF the line.
Weather conditions and floods prevent
extensive movements by infantry. II
seems apparent from the official reports
that neither side has obtained any i'm
portant advantage. although the Ger
mans are slowly running the town Of
| Ipres.
The brief communique issued at 1885
o'clock tonight was as follows:
To-day. as well rs yesterday. heavy
oannonading occurred in the north IN

The German attack began at II o'clock.
"The village was hombarded by their

Endurance Demonstrated

SECTION I. From the Argonne to the

From tho Argonne to the Nosgcs,
there have been many actions OF detail
wterc our troops demonstrated their power
ot endurance. Every day and eve"y n&sht
around Nerdun and on the heights cf
the Meuse they have been compelled to
repulse attacks. some Of which We're OF a
particularly violent nature

on the contrary proved a success.

ION the 18th we destroyed several Of
the enemys guns in the region Of Hpres.
On the 18th and the Goth we obtained 4
similar result at Nieuport. our art.l-

on the 10Th and 1t was in this manner
that we were able to stop the lombard
ment directed against the Nprcs rail-
road station and the road from PEPPER
inghe TO Hpres. The enemy's artillery
appeared ON several occasions t. ne
short of ammunition Several German
shells failed to explode and these proved
upon examination to be OF the model
used for practice.
"Our infantry during the last Ave days
has lost non. of It's positions in this region
and has often gained ground. Partial at

FL PASO, March 1l.-Cattlemen throughout the southwes. are almost unanimous in their condemnation Of the proposed resolution calling for the expu sin of the Mexican members Of the Texas Cattlemen's Association, 70 be presented at the convention in Fort Worth The resolution, 1t is charged, is instigated by General Fran cisco Villa. is sole purpose being to further his scheme of c-nfiscatin cattle of Mexican stockmen an. sell ing them on this side of the river.
 At present members owning cattlc in Mexico enjoy a certain measure Of protec jon, as cattle bearing their brands cannot be sold fin American markets unless the vendor Iaas bi.l If sale showing clearly his right to their possession. Waen cattle cary ing the brand of member of the as sociation are offered for sale by other than .heir rlghtful owner the author tiles of the stockyards where they are received take them over and forward to the real owner their market price This system makes 1t difficult for Villa or any one else ,o find a mar ket in the United states for confis' cated cattle.
