ditions almost fiercely, this tall, lean
clear-eyed lawyer.
"And so he's been hanging your
pictures all over his wallis" exclaimed
the major. God bless my heart and
soul, child. This is certainly a merry
Christmas for US all"
Pam was rather grave, though, as
they went through the splendid red
and gold corridors of the great hotel
The dinner was to be very select and
private up in the majors reception
room and she wondered what this dis
tant cousin would be like.
He was all she had wanted him to
be. Even Pam could find no fault as
she sat next to him at the round table.
And oh, after years of lonely striving
among strangers, how it made her
cheeks glow and her heart beat to
hear these two, the splendid old
major and Ralph, vie with each other
in their delightful courtesy and COM
pliments.
"You don't know how good it is to
find some one OF your very own" she
said, when the major had gone out
after the dinner was over.
Don't I?'' said Ralph, smiling down
at her. 1--WE put in about fourteen
years up here, and only the major
to give me a cousinly greeting now

He stopped and looked into her
eyes. Someway they wavered under
his gaze. The majors voice hailed
them.

Ralph stopped, and pressed kiss
on the warm, halfaverted pink cheek
while the major drank their health
And to our next Christmas to-

boy, and this old chap who'll never
be lonely again"

Ralph. "Will you kiss me then,

happiness, and very demurely she an

Battle Never Decisive.

Special by United Press Wire.
Paris, Oct 3.-It is reported
here that the armies of Won Boehm,
Won Kluck and Won Buelow have all
been partly amalgamated and that
they are now holding a series of lines
facing north and south near Ribe-
court, to Mons In Belgium and turn
ing towards Dourari and Bapaume.
Meanwhile the line of the Aisne for
merly held by Won Buelow, is report
ed occupied by troops which were
withdrawn from Alsace-Lorraine and
the German right fortresses. 1t Is
the presence of SO many veterans on
the German right that Is responsible
for the long continued fighting.
They are making supreme effort
to break the French line and to di-
vide the allied armies so that the
armies operating with Arras and
Amiens as bases, can be isolated and
destroyed. This operation will
prove unsuccessful in the opinion OF
military experts who declare that the
ferocity of yesterday and last night
attacks indicate the high tide of Ger
man offense has been reached They
say that men were deliberately sac
rificed by the thousands and that
the efforts having failed all that can
be expected now is for the Germans
to attempt to hold their present line
for brief period and then to re-
tire.
incidentally, because of the false
hopes held out that the present bat
tie in the result of the defeat of the
Germans might end the war, atten-
tion was being called to the fact by
military experts in Paris newspa-
pers, today that this battle cannot
be actually decisive. II the Ger
mans lose, they will retire slowly
and in good order to their next line
of defense, which is known to be
Just inside the southern Belgium
frontier, In the unforeseen conting-
ency that the allies will have to
give ground they have a secondary
defense line south of the Marne,
where they in turn would reform
and continue fighting. Neither army
can be destroyed or seriously Grip
pied by this greatest battle in the
history of the world which started
three weeks ago as a rear guard ac-
tion and two days later became
transformed into pitched battles.

DREDGESOUNDAS
APPROPRIATION
BILL IS SIGNED
Work Was Started Soon After
President Wilson Affixed His
Signature on Measure-Cut
Before Final Passage.

That the work on dredging to
depth of twenty-five feet at low tide
the Staten Island sound between the
upper New York bay and Smith
street, Perth Amboy, will be contin-
ued in spite of the reduction to $780,
100000 of the rivers and harbors
bill which was signed by President
Wilson yesterday, was assured when
two big dredges, after being idle
since spring, resumed operations
yesterday in the vicinity of the B.,
and O. bridge which connects New
Jersey and Staten Island.
The expenditure of the $4,000
600, appropriated by this congress,
was left to the discretion of the war
department. 1t is believed that the
department has decided to allow the
continuation of the work to the
amount of 100000, which was one
of the provisions of the original har-
Dor and rivers bill which some
months ago passed the lower house
of congress. 1t was through the eff
forts of Congressman Thomas j..
Scully that the house made this ap-
preparation to finance the second lap
of the project for a channel from
the upper bay to Smith street,
twenty-five feet deep and 400 feet
wide. This was the second appro-
priation secured in the house by the
congressman from the third district.
The original appropriation secur-
ed by the representative was for
100000 January, 1918, which was
included in the rivers and harbors
bill which passed congress during
that month. The project contem-
plated the appropriation of some ST.
100000 to complete the dredging of
the channel, to be made in yearly in
stallments of 100000 each If, as
it seems, the war department in
tends to continue the work to the
amount Of 100000 as orig
inally provided In the bill, that
will make $1,000,000, which will
have been expended on the project,
OF half the money estimated as nee
essary to complete the channel.

OFFICIALS MEET
THURSDAY TO ACT
ON TWO TRACKS

In accordance with wishes of
Mayor Ferd Garretson and members
of the Board of Aldermen, there will
be conference between city officials
and representatives of the Public
Service Railway Company upon the
proposition of placing double trolley
tracks on Smith and State streets, at
the council chamber in city hall at
o'clock Thursday afternoon. Each
side will then endeayor to ascertain
Just what the other will give in the
way of concessions. The traction
company appears anxious to secure a
franchise from the city to double
track practically all Of Smith street
within the city limits and the major
portion of State street, from Smith
street northerly. City officials are
determined that no such concessions
shall be granted until the railway
company has met the city upon an
equitable basis. That would include
the construction of belt line troll
lev track around the city, or at least
a loop into the northwestern section.
Public Service officials have informed
the city that such a loop Is deemed
inadvisable at present.
City officials were given to under
stand at the committee meeting OF
the Board Of Aldermen last night
that l.. D. H. Gilmour, counsel for
the Public Service Railway Com
pany, would appear to represent
them here next Thursday afternoon.
He will be met by the mayor and al
dermen. Each side will submit prop
ositions. it is believed. and the mer-
its of these will be discussed and con-
sidered. 1
The Public Service concern has
several petitions, maps and sample
comics of ordinances in the hands OF
the Board of Aldermen. The latest
batch was referred to the committee
ON streets and sewers. 1t reported at
one of the late council meetings that
rwouId be pleased to have the trac-
tion officials meet the city TO negoi-
ate for an agreement.
CITY officials appear determined
that the Public Service shall give
something valuable to the city In re-
tnrn for double tracking franchises
Mentioned most prominently among
such concessions is loop INTO tne
northwestern section. Should the
traction company refuse to make
such concession, settlement may De
