Ypres, losing a ioothold they had gain
ed at great cost The only important
battles anywhere on the wide front
between the North sea and Alsace yes
terday took place in the small area OF
conflict in Belgium, where the Ger

campaign in the west by the effort to
tear a hole in the allied line that
would let them through to the French

They not only failed to keep grip
on part of the left bank Of the User,
but they lost heavily in attempting to
storm the allied line holding the wood

troops, the Prussien guard, have been

MIDLAND MINES
 SCENE OF RIOTS
BACHE-OENMAN COAL MINING PROPERTIES ARE DE-
 STROYED BY FIRE
LOSS OVER HALF A MILLION
Prospect Of Wage Settlement Being Reached This Week Brings One
 Ray of Hope.
Western s.w.papcr rn,on New, Service.


 Fort Smith.-Al that remains of the six mines of the Bache.neuman Coal Company in the Greenwood district Of this county is Mine Nc. (. near Mid land. The other four mines. destroyed Friday and Saturday. representing value Of more than half million dol lars are a mass of ruins. The fifth mine, the Coronado, located q mile west of Huntington, went up in smoke at noon Monday. The loss is esti- mated at s100,0 ,000. None of the plants was insured and the loss will be com plete. Three mines were destroyed in the riots at Prairie Creek Friday and the company's Dallas Mine. near Hart ford, was badly damaged Saturday night. The loss to this company was increased to $75,000 Monday.
 The Coronado plant was discovered on fire at 11:10 o'clock and in few moments was doomed. The tpple, sup ply house. the boiler and engine room, fan house and slack washer were destroyed Nearly the entire plant was in flames when the fire was dis. covered. The washer had been soak ed in oil. Within two hours the de- struction was complete.
 The mine suspended operations about the time the company quit oper- ating its Mine No. i at Prairie Creek with union labor and substituted non union labor. That was early in April. It was later announced that strike had been declared at the Coronado, although it was not operating.
 Out of the reign of terror and ex- citement that exists In the coal fields of Sebastian county is one ray of hope in the announcement that in Kansas City a wage contract will be signed by the union miners of Arkan- sas, Oklahoma. Texas and Kansas and the operators. This announcement was made by Edward Cunningham of Texas, a vice president of the miners union. Cunning ana says he was given this information over the long distance telephone from Kansas City by John P. White, international president of the mine workers
 The long delay in coming to a set. tlement in the wage controversy had proven a source of unrest il. the coal fields and there were rumors that the operators had planned to break with the union and try the open shop policy.
 No more evidence was found of ad- ditional fatalities in the riots at Prai- rie Creek Friday. A statement was Issued at the Bache-Denman head quarters that all men except Clarence Sylesberry of Midland and John Bas- kins of Coal Hill mine guards, have been accounted for The office had been deluged with inquiries by rela- tives of employees of the mine. the let. ters coming from many states. Ii was not until George and Franklin Davis brothers, of this city. dragged them selves into Fort Smith that all the missing men were accounted for They had concealed themselves in the mountains since the battle of Fri day and arrived here in destitute cir cumstances.
 Two arrests have been made in con nection with the death of Sylesberry and Bankins
