STORY AS
TO "SIR|kt' AT LAUREL
BE Sent There, Saying Guards
Had Quit Their Jobs.

An unofficial report was received at
Richmond Police Headquarters at a
late hour last night that the guards
on duty at the Laurel Refornatory
had gone on a strike.
A hurry call was received from n
man who stated that the FIVE guards
at Laurel had quit their Jobs, and that
there would be no one at the insti-
tuition this morning to look after the
boys when they were turned loose to
make a rush for the breakfast table
and then to their various vocations.
This message was given by George
Harvie, a former attache OF the Laurel
institution. He stated that the five
ment had quit, and that II would be
a good thing to have lot of police
men out there this morning to look
out for the boys. He gave no reason
for the strike"
He was told to get in touch with
the chief OF police He did so, but
gave no additional information. The
chief talked with the Mayor, and IL
was determined that nothing could be
done, unless request came from the
superintendent of Laurel or the board
OF visitors Of that institution.
NO such request having been made
up to an early hour this morning. and
attempts to get In touch with Laurel
over the telephone. having proven fu-
tile. the information purporting to have
como from Mr.. Harvie Is believed to
have been without foundation in fact.
No one In authority has made any
report Of any such trouble as reported
by Mr.. Harvie.

CANDIDATES. NAMES TO
Be PLACED ON BALLOT
Attorney General Gives Opinion In
Election Gases From Accomac
and Richmond Counties.

Attorney General Pollard yesterday
gave an opinion in the case OF the
candidates nominated for public Of
fee in the primaries conducted in Ac-
comac and Richmond Counties, who
failed to notify the county clerk they
are aspirants for Office at the coming
election. The opinion holds that the
electoral boards must place the names
of the candidates upon the official
ballot. even though the candidates
overlooked the provision requiring
them to file their names with the
county clerks.
The case was laid before the at
torney general by the electoral boards
of the two counties, who pointed out
that the law says that all aspirants
for Office. whether named by primary
or not, must file notice OF their can
didacy with the clerk of the county
at least twenty days before the cleo
ton is to be held. The candidates in
question had failed to file such notice
and the electoral boards asked for
authority to place their names on the
ballot.

FRENCH BLOW UP
ENEMY TRENCHES
Their Troops Dash Into Craters and
Repulse All Counter
Attacks.
GERMANS USE GAS IN
ATTACK NEAR RHEIMS
Fighting On West Line Continues But
Series of Bombardments ;end Small
Changes at Heavy Cost of Life.

Paris, Oct .21.--The French made
valuable gain today southeast OF
Melville st, Naast on the road to
Lille. The attack was preceded by
the explosion or heavily charged
mines. which tore up the enemy
trenches at this point and destroyed
their barbed-wire entanglements. The
instant after the mines were detonated
the French troops rushed forward
and occupied the craters made BY tho
explosions, strengthening the new POI
sitions. The German guns to the rear
at once began a heavy bombardment
under cover Of which the Germans
reorganized and made repeated
counter attacks In an effort to regain
the positions. but the French held the
advantage.
Today's Berlin official statement an-
nounces that the Germans operating
south of the Libau-Ahely-Dwins
railway have penetrated Russian posi-
tlons on a front of | I-2 miles, re-
tanning all of the captured ground ex-
cept one position in a shurch yard
northeast of Garbounevka
The German statement also claims
advances west of Czartorysk. west Of
Tarnopol. in Galacia The Vienna
statement speaks of the repulse OF
Russian attacks in this fighting, in
the neighborhood of Czartorysk in-
dicating that the Russians are inain-
tanning the offensive.
The Germans made another gas att
tack today east of Rheims, but were
completely repulsed. The sector at
tackled was between the farms at
Lehmarquiss and Prosnes. The French
troops, protecting themselves against
the gas clouds. poured In a heavy in-
fantry fire, which was supported by r.
curtain of fire from the French ar.
tillery and the German attempt wac
cut short. ~

PEACE IN BASEsRAIL WORLD.


New York, Oct 27,--From Chicago
this afternoon emanated a story that
peace between organized baseball and
the Federal League would be estab-
lished In the very near future. This
news dispatch tended to confirm rum
ors published early that the COM
promise would entail an elimination OF
the independent circuit through per-
mitting the financial lions OF the out
law cause to buy into the National
League.
This Chicago story Of today carried
unusual interest for New York as 1t
said the New York National League
club was one OF several soon to pass
into the control OF the Federal League
operators. The insinuatton was that
the controlling interests OF the John
T. Brush estate. as represented by
President Harry N Hampstead would

. washington. Oct 27.-The possihil-
Nty Of a general revision Of the tariff
was brought to the fore today by the
disclosure from an Official source that
the government will have to have for
eho current expenses Of the next fiscal
year 360,000,0o0. moro than will be
provided by the war and income taxes
and tho tariff act. even II the sugar

This $50. 1000. 900 additional revenue
Win be needed without regard to the
increased expenditures for national de-
tense. for which the administration
seems practically TO have decided to
provide by issuing bonds
II became known today that govern
ment officials. after careful investiga-
tion as to the total yield to be ex-
pected from the revenue producing
acts now In force. are convinced that
next years incomes Will fall approxi-
mately $4,000, 900 short of the needs
pf the government for Its normal ex-
penses and have so reported to MEM
bers Of the ways and means committee
II the House.
Interest In this disclosure was In
creased by Information that a pro-
pcSat tuc is uIl~
derstood to have to levy a special
revenue duty on wool will meet with
opposition among Democratic leaders
Of the House. Something Of surprise
was created in administration circles
| today, when 1t was disclosed that at
least one prominent Democratic tariff
leader in the House believes that the
party should sanction a slight gem
eral revision upward rather than to
hlmit any substantial levy on wool.
| This influential leader believes that
the government should provide for Its
normal needs either by such a revision
upward or else by the issuance OF
Panama Canal bonds.
The impression prevails here that
the President will frown on any pro-
posal for a general revision and that
the entire strength Of the adminis-
/ tration will be cxerted toward tho
adoption Of other means, however
i drastic the need for meeting the finan-
cial needs Of the government may be.
