GERMAN ASSAULTS
FAIL, SAYS PARIS

Paris, Sept. 21.-Another night at
tempt by the Germans to break
through the allied left wing was frus
trated.
II was, however, marked with fierce
fighting in which many were killed
and wounded.
The fighting on the left. where the
combined German armies of Generals
Won Kluck and Won Buelow are mass
ed, increased in intensity, but the al
Hes lines are steadily being pushed
forward. The Germans retire TO new
positions constructed in the rear of
their original mes as the pressure
increases.
But at no point have they actually
been defeated. Along the rest of the
line the great battle continues as an
artillery duel. There has beer. prac-
tically no fighting by the infantry for
thirty-six hours, both sides recognize
ing the futility of sacrificing men
while the entrenehed positions re
main intact.
Consequently every effort is being
brought to bear to demolish the Ger
man batteries. The French artillery
fire is increasing in intensity all along
the line, according to the reports
reaching here.

Reluctance Of Warning Nations to

Washington, Sept. 21.-Reluctance
OF both the allies and Germany to
initiate peace overtures, which might
be taken as a sign of weakness. is the
greatest obstacle OF the peace move

They are reporting to their foreign
Offices the interchange between Berlin

Now Raging In France.

Berlin, Sept. 21.-Members of the
general staff here, in private CONVEX

come of the battle in France, as their
own army is steadily growing stronger
and the lines of communication have
been adjusted to permit of a more ef-
fcient supply of provisions and ammu-
milton, 1t having rather outrun its
supply arrangements in the rapid ad-
vance on Paris.
The French army is showing signs
of having shot Its bolt and has fought
itself to a standstill. being unable to
fill its depleted ranks like the Ger
mans. The Germans, according to
the official bulletin. are slowly but
surely gaining ground In the center.

COVER 'FRONT.' or over
ONE HUNDRED MILES
Casualties So Far Estimated
al One Hundred and
Fifty Thousand.

Paris, Sept. 21-The official com
m~unications issued thus far have
neglected the question of losses,
which In a fight such as the battle of
the Aisne, covering a front of 1870
miles, are almost impossible to esti-
mate even approximately.
Some unofficial reports have placed
the allies losses at $4,000 and those
of the Germans at 100000 IA the Sc
ries Of engagements comprised in the
great clash of arms. How near these
figures are to the truth no one will
know until the official figures are
compiled. However, the impression
derived from individual accounts of
wounded soldiers and from prisoners,
the only Off aial sources of informa-
ton at present, would indicate that
these estimates are conservative.
The losses certainly are the great
| est on record.
IL the press bureau communications
are silent on this subject the order OF
the day for the army gives eloquent
hints OF sacrifices made to gain adj
| vantage and shows how m%urderous is
modern warfare and how regardless
of personal safety are the officers and
| men.
Many Mentioned for Bravery.
Lieutenant Naquet OF the Two Hun
| drcd and Fifty-eighth infantry OF re-
servists is among those mentioned
for bravery. Although wounded he
continued the energetic direction of
his company, Of which all the officers
in his section had been killed or
wounded.
AdJntant Dele of the Sixty-ninth in
fantry led his section on under the
most violent fire until all his men
were wounded. Then he grabbed a
gun from one of his soldiers and while
the section retired continued firing
until he was killed by a fragment OF
a shell.
For the great proportion of French
officers killed or wounded two expla-
nations are given-the zeal of the of.
icers and the orders given to the Ger.
man rifemen to pick them out.
Besides those already named the
latest order mentions General Mangin,
who achieved fame in the Moroccan
campaign, and General Battille, who
was killed on Sept. s after showing
the uttermost bravery and sang froid,

Need New Game Law.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, July 3. That an- other determined effort will be made in the next legislature to secure the enactment of game laws is declared certain by the game conservationists.
 For years the sportsmen and especially the nonresident ones, who realize that Arkansas is one of the best game and fish states in the Union, have been buying large tracts of land and water, where the game is most plenti- full. Here they are establishing private preserves where they are permitted to go in the open seas on and kill such game as may be found on the preserves. In com sequence, the, choicest feeding and breeding grounds of the state are converted into death traps for the wild life.
 Unless some provisions are made soon,' says a leader in the movement, flor a place for our wild life to feed and raise their young, it is only a question of short time until the game and fish of the state will be exter- minated. The time has come when we must look to the enact- ment of laws that will protect especially bird life for the bene- fit of our agricultural interests more than for our sportsmen."
