TRAFFIC WILL OPEN UP SOON
Export Trade From New Orleans to
Receive a Great Impetus:

New Orleans.-1n the opinion of
local freight traffic men, if the rail-
roads and steamships combine in sue
cessfully handling the export wheat
under the conditions brought about
by the war, wonders will have been
accomplished. The movement of grain
to the terminals at New Orleans has
been slow during the past few weeks,
and most Of the product is being held
at originating points for some rea.
son best known to the shippers.
Railroad men, however, expect the
rush to begin at any day. and are
making every effort to have on hand
a supply of cars sufficient to care for
the movement. There are ample cars
under present conditions, but when
the call Is made by hungry Europe
for the bulk Of the surplus on hand
in tie United States, it is not unlikely
that the terminals will become con.
gested again, and the railroads may
be forced to put on another embargo
There is considerable ocean tonnage
flying British, French and neutral
flags booked for the port during the
next few months, but hardly sufficient
to handle the great bulk of American
wheat in a sudden rush. 4

Coming to Louisiana From Cleveland

New Orleans.-The tide Of Hunga.

Louisiana.
The Louisiana Meadows Company
has disposed Of a group Of farms on
Raceland prairie to a number Of Hun.
garians and Bohemians from Cleve.
land and Lorain, o.; Farrell, Pa, and
Detroit, Mich.
From the close investigation these
men made before they reached any
decision, from the fact that they paid
cash for their purchases, from the
character of the men who accom-
panied them and conducted their H.
nancial arrangements, and from their
announcement that they are going
home not only to get their families.
but to induce their kin and friends to
become their neighbors in the new
land, the outlook is that the move.
ment will assume important proper
items.
The men buying the farms have
been in America from seven to fifteen
years, and are all n%aturalized or have
declared their intention OF applying
for citizenship. They are OF good
farming stock, and have had consider.
able experience in corn, cattle, hogs

ONLY HARD SIEGE WILL WIN
Will Be Difficult to Drive Germans
from PositionseGermans Are
Playing a Game.

London. III. NJ. Tomlinson, the
Daily News correspondent, telegraph
ing from outside of Paris, says the
battle now proceeding is beyond the
power Of description, but from a mass
of disconnected matter, carefully ex.
amined in detail, as personally related
by combatants, we may Judge that the
progress in the section from Peronne
to verdun has been fairly, finely won
by the allies. Some say the Germans
are still playing a subtle game, with
something up their sleeves, but the
~concensus Of opinion Is that the Ger
mans retreated because they had to.
1t does not need a military expert
to understand that the allies can't
make as quick progress, because the
Germans occupy strong positions and
know that when they break they
break for good. 1t must be admitted
that it will be difficult to storm the
Germans from their positions. Only
a hard siege will do 1t.

"We know that to the II army corps

TERRIFIC ATTACK AT MIGHT
Hand.to-hand Encounter-lines Clash
in Terrific Bayonet Charges
in the Dark.
(Copynght)

w. sbS Sss
Paris.-In a furious night attack
opened by the allies simultaneously
along the whole line between the Aisne
and the Disc, the Germans were sur
prised in their trenches and driven out
at several points on the German right,
both sides suffering very heavy losses.
Soon after the attack opened, the
Germans directed an attack against
the allies lines further to the east,
but were finally driven back in a
hand.to-hand encounter, in which line
after line clashed in terrific bayonet
charges in the dark.
Severe fighting has occurred along
the entire battle line, which has mar
rowed to about 80 miles because of the
rival armies drawing closer together
for more massive compact.
During the early part Of the night
the engagement had narrowed to ac-
tivity of the heavy guns, and the fire
was desultory. But at 2 o'clock in the
morning a preconcerted attack by the
allies opened with unprecedented fury.
Artillery, rapid-fire guns and small
csonai, anG .iso~IirS ,saG ever~hsfmis5s
On the allies left the onslaught was
conducted with the greatest vigor, for
here the attacking French and British
had made the greatest advances and
the troops were buoyed up by the full
enthusiasm of their triumphs.
The French gunners had the range,
and raked the German trenches with a
CALLING fire. Under cover of this and
the rapid-firers, which swept the top
of the line of trenches, the British and
English cavalry and infantry advanced
and stormed them.
The energy of the attack took the
Germans by surprise, and after a fierce
struggle at the trenches, the Germans
were driven back. The German resist
ance was desperate. 1t was not until
they were overwhelmed that they were
swept from their position.

Paris.-The French official COM
munication, after announcing that
there has been no change In the situa-
ton on the battle front since the is
suance Of the previous communication,
comments on the battle of the Aisne.
The text of the announcement is as
follows:
"There has been no change in the
situation since the last communities

1.-THE battle In progress along the
Aisne has extended over eight days,
but it should cause no surprise II one
recalls the Russo-Japanese q
1.-THE battle Of the Marine was an
action undertaken in the open field,
which began with a general resump-
ton Of the offensive by the French
army against the enemy, who did not
expect 1t and had not time seriously
to organize defensive positions. The
same cannot be said Of the battle Of
the Aisne, where the adversary, who
was retreating, stopped and took po'
sition which by the nature of the
ground are substantial in themselves
in many places and which he grad
ually has improved as to organization
"This battle Of the Aisne, therefore,
presents on q large part Of its front
the character Of war by assault SINH
lar to the operations in Manchuria.
ut might be added that the excep
tional power Of the artillery facing
each other-the heavy German artil
lery against the French Z 5-centfmetel
cannon-gives a particular value to

L0ndon.-The territory between the
rivers Somme and Disc is the scene Of
the ~fiercest battle along the great front
In Northern France, where the Ger
mans and allies have been striving
tor two weeks to force each other back.
This ground includes the French left
wing, which has thrown tremendous
forces against the German general,
Won Kluck's, REINFORCED army in an
endeavor to outflapk him.
The French official report describes
this struggle as a violent one and an
nounces that the allied troops have
made a slight advance.
In the Woevre region the French
also report some gain, but describe the
situation on the heights of the Mouse
as unchanged.
Prior to this, however, the Germans
had crossed the River Mouse near st.
Mihiel in the Woevre district.
The Russian general staff reports a
battle between the Russians and Ger
mans in the region Of D~ruskenhiki, in
the government Of Suwalki, Russian
Poland, bordering on Prussia, but gives
no details. The general staff also re-
ports the retirement Of the Austrian
army westward on Cracow.
The Netherlands government has de.
clared martial law in the eastern prov
inces, according to an Amsterdam dis
patch, to prevent the expectation of
contrabands of war to Germany and at

displaced is the gist Of the latest adj
vices received here" says the Petro-
grad correspondent of the Morning

"All the original administration of

1.-THE leaders of the Polish secret

of all the Polish volunteer detach'
ments fighting on the Austrian side
also have left Cracow. The Germans
have thrown three army corps into
the Cracow district, according to this
information, and are bringing more
troops in preparation for the expected
Russian attack.
Word has been received here that
Germany has stopped all traffic on the
railways between Berlin and the Ger
