According 20 the latest advices the

there's and Arras. IN the region of
Vailly. in the Argonne and ON the
heights Of The Mcuse.'
The official statement given out ear
lier in the day says:
From Nieuport 20 DiXmudo and IN
the region Of Yprcs the cannonading
has been resumed with greater vio-
lence than in the preceding days. On
the canal TO the south OF Dixmude the
action OF our artillery checked the
work that the Germans were endeav-
oring TO carry out TO keep down inc
inundations. The enemy was com
pelled to evacuatc portion of his
trenches which mad been filled by the
waters.
1.-TWO attacks of German infantry.
one 20 the south OF BiXschoote and the
other to the south Of Iprcs, resulted
in failure. On our side we have made
progress between BiXschoote and the
canal.
Between Armentieres and La Bas-
see there has been an artillery duel
conducted with great spirit.
"On the Aisnc certain German de-
tachments which endeavored to cross
the river in the vicinity Of Naiily were
either driven back or destroyed

points.
On the region Of st. Mihiel we have
taken possession of the first houses
Of the village Of Chauvoncourt. These

Reaching the Teetotaller.'
Expressing his opinion thar the pres

community should contribute, the Chan
cellor outlined his proposals Tor IN
creases in the income tax and duties
on beer and tea. The duty on beer. he
proposed. should fall on the consum-
ing public. and the beer drinker would
have to pay an additional halfpenny
on each glass. He said ne regretted
having TO tax tea, but he had reached
the end of his taxable resources, and
the only way of reaching the teeto-
taller was TO place a TAX on mis- tea.
II was necessary 70 borrow s23O,321,-

year, but there were strong, overpoW-

would carry the country beyond that
date and enable il to carry the war
forward for some time beyond then, II
it had not previously been ended.

C0T0NSEED OIL PLACED
IN N-C0NTRABAND LIST
Product in Neutral Bottoms Not
Subject to Seizure Unless In
tended for War Uses.

Marking a distinct advance in the ex-
emption Of semi-contraband goods from
seizure when carried in American bot
toms, a decision relating to the exports
of cottonseed oil was announced by the
State Department last evening. This was
another step in the negotiations toward
working out a complete code for regula-
ton Of shipments of American products.
not only to neutrals, but also to belliger-
ent countries.
The declaration made last evening is,
in effect. that American trade in cotton
seed oil in neutral bottoms is not subject
to seizure or detention. not only when
destined for neutral countries, but when
shipped to Germany, If not intended for
military uses.
The British government has assented to
SO much of the proposition as relates to
shipments to Holland of neutral goods,
such as foodstuffs, which the Netherlands
government has enlarged for exporta-
ton.
The solicitors opinion goes beyond the
mere matter of cottonseed oil and lays
down the principle that cotton is nom
contraband and is not subject to seizure
even when shipped to a belligerent coun-
try, providing it Is on American or other
neutral ships. Therefore. there is no Inn
pediment to the shipment of American
cotton to Hamburg consigned to German
spinners.

he slipped away to the French lines,

PETROGRAD. via London. October
10, 11:10 p.m.-An official Russian
communication issued recently states
that in view Of the Importance Of the
coming battle and the changed DISPOSE
ton of the Russian forces, secrecy is
necessary in regard to military opera
tions. Therefore the only possible re-
mark Is that the drawing in Of the
Russian forces from the north and
south is to meet the attempted Austro-
German advance into Poland.
The victorious army of Gen. Rannen-
kampf. having driven back the Ger
mans from the region Of Augustowo
as far as Lyck and Prosken. which is

has accomplished its purpose. and is
now free to send part of the troops
southwark. At the same time the Cos
sacks, pouring into Hungary. have now
changed their objective.
The Russian troops are now acting
exclusively on the offensive in Poland.
The attempted advance of the Ger
mans in this country demands mass
ing of the Muscovite forces along the
line from Lublin to Warsaw and Lem
berg, where the indications are that
the Russian offensive is already in
progress. Meanwhile no further action
Is expected to the north OF Bialystok,
where the Russian army Is content
with having repulsed the Germans as
far as necessary.

SAYS TERMS OF PEACE
WILL END MILITARISM

LONDON. October 10. $50 p.m.-'The
terms Of peace will be that the dominant
spirit Of militarism which has perverted
every talent Of the German nation will be
crushed and broken so that those who
come after US shall be free from such
terror"
This was the concluding remark Of a
speech delivered this afternoon at New
castle by Viscount Haldane. lord high
chancellor, at a meeting to influence re-
cruiting.
viscount Haldane claimed that Great
Britain was fighting because 1t was a
sacred duty. He paid tribute to the
great qualities Of the German nation, but
said it had been prostituted to military
uses and this war was to end that spirit
Of militarism. He continued:
IF Germany should annex Belgium and
crush France and annex Holland and
check Russia. then this country would be
doomed. Rather than see that accom-
plished I would see the British empire
perish honorably."
