Paris, Sept. 25.-An official COM
munication says that a general ac-
tion of great violence has begun
around Tergnier and St. Quentin.
There is no change of Importance
north of the river Aisne. On the
center the French have made prog
ress east of Rheims in the direction
of Moronvilliers. There is no change
in the situation further east as far
as the Argonne region. The Ger.
mans have not been able to move out
of Varenes. On the right bank of
the Meuse the Germans have bonn
barded the forts Of ParOches and
Camp Des Romaines. The French
remain masters of the heights on the
Meuse south of Verdun. The French
troops have reached the region of
Beaumont. The situation in Lor-
raine and the Vosges is unchan ged i.

RAINS, FLOODS, SNOW
AND DISEASE HINDER HINDER
(By Associated Press.)

Paris, Sept. 25.--So determined
is the German resistance in the north
and around Roye and Peronne, that
it is only by raking artillery fire
and hard fighting that the allies are
able to gain ground. The allies
left wing occupies positions the Ger
mans traversed en- route to Paris.
This fact has caused observers to he
lieve that the Germans must con-
centrate a large force in order to
protect their right wing, the turn
ing of which gave the allies great
victory 1t is reported that the Ger
mans are sacrificing large masses of
men in hopes of coming quick ad-
vantage. Rain, floods and snow are
hindering the fighting both east and
west and ominous news of the pres
ence of disease is aiso received. Aus
tria admits that there is cholera II
her army, but Servia denies reports
that the same disease is among her
troops.

London, Sept. 24-The clash OF
war among the nations of Europe
has not modified the views of the
supporters of the Channel tunnel
scheme whose desire to build tun-
mel rom Dover to Calias has been
blocked for years by the military
authorities on the ground that 1t
would destroy England's insularity.
Several peers and members of par
lament who have for long shown an
interest in the scheme declare that
instead Of proving of assistance to
the enemy, channel tunnel would
have been a supreme assistance in
transporting the British army.
They declare they will continue
the advocacy of the tunnel at the
end of the war. The precautions
suggested to prevent the tunnel be-
, ing made use of for an invasion Of
England include the flooding Of q
dip in the tunnel, commanding exits
with guns that could not be silenced
from the sea, and an electric button
that might touch off the explosion

Hoarding Banks
Injuring Country,
Declares McAdOO
tBy Associated Press.

Washington, ID. c., Sept. 25.-
The anti-money boarding campaign
launched by Secretary McAdoo
against National banks, particularly
those which have received federal
crop moving money, or which have
taken out emergency currency, was
broadened to take in the State insti-
tutions.
Mr.. McAdoo's telegram to the
State banking superintendent fol-
lows: ~'
Reports now being received by
the Comptroller of the Currency
from National banks throughout the
country. indicate that a money scar
city is being occasioned in large
measure because of the boarding of
funds by many National banks,
which are carrying reserves, in some
cases two or three times as great as
required by law. and also that cred
its are being restricted and excess
sive rates Of interest are being
charged to customers. There is at
this time more currency in the coun-
try than at any time in it's previous
history, there having been issued
through the treasury department
since Aug. more than $3OO,O ,OOO,-
900 Of additional National bank cur
rency, which, together with the re-
Taxation in business, should create
an abundance of loanable funds.
"This department will withdraw
government deposits from banks
found to be boarding money and
charging excessive rates of interest
and will redeposit them with banks
whose funds are being loaned at
reasonable rates to meet the legiti-
mate demands of business and for
moving the crops.
This department would like very
much to have your cooperation in
it's efforts to remedy these unsatis-
factory conditions, and respectfully
asks If it would not be possible for
you to secure from all State banks
and trust companies in your State
statements which will show their
cash reserves as of recent date
the rates of interest which they are
charging on existing loans, and the
rates which they are demanding for
new accommodations and give this
department the benefit of the infor.
nation disclosed by these reports.
at is confidently believed that II
all banks can be persuaded to use
their resources intelligently and con
siderately and at reasonable rates ol
interest to meet the Legitimate de.

greatly relieved and business re-
stored to a satisfactory, If not an en-
