'sOn our left wing the struggle is in full swing,-an announcement in the official bulletin issued by the French war offlce-epitomizes the situationS ln the field of battle in northern France, for 1t is at this point that the real struggle for supremacy is being fougnt out.
 Battle Moves Northward.
 The scene of this determined action is the territory around Arras, in the department of Pas de Calais. showing a decided movement by the allied army to the northward, as Arras is about 20 miles north of Albert. There has been no decisive result, however. up to the present which in the nature of the fighting going on would seem to indi- cate that the reinforcement of each side must have been about equal.
 It is believed that the British In- dian troops are now on the line, and possibly some of the British Srri- torials, and 1t is known that the Ger mans have sent up heavy reinforce ments from the center to aid the hard lighting soldiers on the right.
 German Trenches Captured.
 Field Marshall French's men have evidently been in close action again, for in the region of Soissons. on which rests the western end of the British line, some of the German trenches have been captured.
 Along the remainder of the front the infantry have remained for the most part in their trenches, while desultory firing continued with the big guns.
 Belsians Resist Attacks.
 The Belgians claim to have resisted the German attacks on the Actresses around Antwerp, although Berlin off, ciaIly reports the destruction of sev- era1 of the forts. as well as satisfac- tory progress on the main front. Cxer's Forces Victorious in Russian
 Poland.
 In the battle of -Augustowo, fin Rus sian Poland, victory is claimed for the Russian arms, the official communica- ton from Petrograd declaring that the German defeat is complete.
 President Poincare and Emperor Nicholas have started for the front probably with the intention of cheer ing the men who are fighting for their countries.
 An Italian force is reported to have landed at Avlona, an important sea- port on the Adriatic. which may fore shadow a change in the Italian policy of neutrality.
 The Japanese in their campaigr against the German concession o Kiao-Chow have been reinforced al Wei-Hsien, in Shan-Tung province Having made answer to the protest O. the Chinese government they are pro. ceeding with the business in hant without further comment.

Carranza Cuts Communications.
VILLA NOTORIOUS CRIMINAL
SAYS CARRANZA MAN

Ell Paso, Tex, Oct. 29.-Sensational
charges against state department rep
resentatives accredited by the United
States to Mexico are contained in a
communication to the state depart.
ment issued tonight by Roberto Pes
ouiera, General Carranza's personal
representative to the United States.
The communication was sent through
the constitutional agency at Washing
ton ard is as follows:
''To the constitutional headquarters,
Washington:
81 think it is my duty to inform
you of the facts in this letter so that
you can communicate such as you
deem best to the American department
of state that the department may be
put to rights in the matter of our
enemy, Francisco Villa. ...
"First-Let me inform you that Vii
las true name of Doroteo Arrange. HI
Imperial Valley press., 1914-10-30

has assumed the name of Francisco
Villa only for reasons known to him
self ard history alone will tell what
crimes his true name of Doroteo
Arrange may hide. This fact We should
like the state department and the
American public to know.
"Second-Please tell the depart
ment that in June of this year when
the breach first came between this
Arrange and General Carranza, Aran-
go and his officers and agents COM
mitted several brutal assaults on the
persons of constitutionalist officers
and employees in Ciudad Juarez, loot
ed the national treasury that was To-
Gated there and at the very moment
that he was openly declaring friend
ship for the United States he was
threatening to invade that nation at
Ell Paso and declaring to his closest
advisers that he would conquer the
nation in a few months campaign.
"Third-Please let the department
know that when a few months ago
Arrange was declaring that the con-
duct of the United States was JUS
titled in the Vera Cruz matter he
was at the same time swearing ven-
geance upon that nation and that,
while he at that time justified his
published statements on the ground
of hatred for the Huertistas and
cientifcos, he is today accepting these
same Huertistas and cientificos and
ex-federals with open arms and ally
ing himself with the very men whom
the revolution sought to put out Of
power in Mexico.
Fourth think that the Wash
ingtoa administration, especially Mr..
Wilson himself, should know, in view
of his Mobile speech and the senti-
ments that he expressed then that
the 'pecial interests that have played
such an important part in American
politics and sustained the corrupt ad-
ministration of the past are in league
with this same Arrange to put him in
power in Mexico and enjoy rare con-
cessions in that country and exploit
the ration as has heretofore been
done.
"Lastly-We have every reason to
believe that accredited representa-
tives of the American government
have sold out to the Villa interests,
Imperial Valley press., 1914-10-30
1882 For, $50 Against,
Irrigation District Bonds

and in place of carrying forth their
Washington commissions are working
energetically to serve this same Aran-
go, alias Francisco Villa. These men
Ell Paso especially their partial acts,
and even acts of rank injustice, are
notorious.
81 think that if Washington would
make a moments investigation it
would find that it's men have in many
cases perjured themselves and COM
mitted felonles to serve their master,
Arrange. We would also call Mr.. Will
sons attention to the similarity be-
tween the assassination of Mugica,
AranCo's latest crime, and the assas-
sinations of Bauch, Benton, and the
attempted assassination of young Dix
on. American government immigra-
tion inspector at this port. We should
also Ike to know why this last man,
Mugica, should have been taken be-
fore George C. Carothers for his
drumhead court martial, as the papers
have reported, if that be true.
