Twenty-one Seats, Mostly

Cape Town. South Africa. Oct. %
The followers OF the Premier, General
Louis Botha. and the Unionists, who
are supporting the Premier. are as
sured Of safe majority in the
House Of Assembly Of the Union of
South Africa.
The Nationalists, who opposed mill
tary operations against German South
west Africa, and are trying to defeat
the plan 10 send a contingent of the
Union forces TO Europe. have thus far
obtained only twenty-one seats, most
~ in the Free State. Their victories
there were expected, as sentiment in
that state is largely in favor of Cen
eral Hertzog. one of the Premier's
most bitter opponents. llertzog is re-
garded as the most influential Boer
general. though in the uprising of last
Year he placed his services at the dis
posal Of General Botha.
Contests for forty-two seats are still
undecided. Returns from the rural
districts, however, are overwhelming
Is in favor Of the Premier. Al Wit
enhage Professor Hes Fremantle, a
lieutenant Of General Hertzog. was de-
feated by 1916 20 1861. At Paarl, a
Dutch centre, ex-Premier Merriam Of
Cape Colony, a supporter Of General
Botha. was elected by a majority Of
two 20 one. At Losberg the Premier
received l.i5l votes. against 1853.
Returns from the Free State indi-
cate that the Nationalists have won all
except one Of the seventeen seats.

Capsized Yawl Bore Fleeing
Germans, Shipping Men Think

Philadelphia. Oct. %. What local

iliary yawl Eclipse. y which six Of the
German officers intoned on the Kron-
prinz Wilhelm at Norfolk are said 20
have escaped. was sighted last sunday
about seventy-iive miles northeast OF
bermuda by the officers and crew Of
the Italian steamship Labor. which ar
rived here to-day from Genoa.
Captain Monzali, of the Labor, SAID
that he had sighted an overturned
white vessel in latitude 1920 north and
Longitude 64.23 west. which answered in
every way the description Of the
Eclipse. ,-.-
The theory is advanced IN shipping
circles here that the Eclipse was cap
sized and its occupants drowned or
that the Germans abandoned their boat
when they were picked up by friendly
ship.

i. s. TOOLS MAKE
JOFFRE'S SHELLS
French Works Are Equipped
with Machinery from
America.

Paris. Sept. 25.-The unremitting
French artillery attack along the whole
western front is made possible by
equally unremitting and intensive eff
fort in the production OF projectiles in
works transformed by equipment with
American machine tools, working regu-
larly twenty-four hours day.
One of these great establishments
near Paris makes more than 5000 shells
and several aeroplane motors day. II
produced 900 automobiles annually be-
fore the war. Like other modern in
dustries, il was arranged so that ma
terial taken in at one end followed n
regular progression until it came out
at the other a finished car. The order
OF operations was different in shell
making, as il was necessary to displace
and rearrange 5000 machines, TO in
stall many new ones ami 10 find hands
70 replace 1000 modified mechanics
Before the war so formidable a task
would have seemed 20 be the work Of
a year. but IL was accompli she'd in a
few weeks, and the works were made
ready to turn out daily thousands Of
parts OF rifles and bayonets in addi-
tion TO high power flying machine mo-
tors and shells. In a few days the
shell production will have been dou-
bled, while the flying corps will con-
tinue 10 receive a good number OF new
machines monthly from this factory.
Women old. young and middle-aged
are working there in the place Of
husbands. fathers. sons and brothers
al the front Projectiles and rife parts
are given the precision of chronom-
cter and every operation is supervised
and the result verified before it goes
on 10 the next hand.
The finished shell must not only
stand a high hydraulic pressure. but
it must give the proper ring. An ex-
pert in steel, isolated from the clang
and hum Of the factory in an almost
dramatically sealed hut. taps each she'll
as il is sent in to him on little troll
ley. Those which give the proper ring
are sent on and the others 20 to the
scrap heap. This is the final trial be-
fore loading.
Shrapnel bullets are placed in the
core Of the she'll by young girls, whose
work is fully equal to that OF trained
arsenal workmen.
The average rate of production in
different factories is about three shells
a day for each workman employed, but
il varies greatly according TO the ma
chine used. The American quadruple
machine tool which does all the opera
tions necessary to complete the core Of
the she'll beats this average a long
way. enabling three men on eight-hour
shifts to turn out thirty-six shells a
day. 1t is on the extension Of the use
OF these machines that the director OF
the works relies TO double his produc-
tim of shells hefOre long.

London, Oct, 22 In Belgium and in
Artois the Germans are making efforts
to assume an offensive. but the Allied
fire has halted all their attempts. The
French apparently have abandoned the
initiative for the present, and are con-
tenting themselves with vigorous re-
plies 70 the enemy's bombardment.
In efforts to dislodge the French
forces defending the salients east and
southwest Of the Givenchy fort, the
Germans launched attacks in the woods
of Givenchy last night. They also at
tackled in the valley of Souchez. Both
assaults. Paris says, were easily re-
pulsed. Preparations for an attack IN
Belgium were also checked by the Al
lies guns.
In Champagne. around Tahure and
Massiges, German artillery has been
directing heavy fire on the advanced
French positions. The bombardment
has been shifted from the sector imme-
diately east of Rheims, where several
German assaults were repulsed, further
east, toward the Argonne. Paris claims
that the French batteries in this dis
trict have mastered the enemy's cannon
ade.
A squadron Of French aeroplanes

park at Ounel, between the Argonne

The statement issued by the Paris

The enemy undertook yesterday
evening, but quite without success,
an attack against the salents TO the

advance.
In the Champagne district the Ger

this bombardment by fire of repres-
