trenches and parts Of the second line.
Here the Germans launched strong
counter attacks. but failed to regain
ground lost.
The battle in the region Of LaBassee
appears to have been most sanguinary
and stubborn. Field Marshal Sir John
French reports that the British attack
was launched in the evening on front
a mile lone. east Of Festubert. The
German first line trenches were cap
tured with rush, but evidently the
British had miscalculated the strength
OF the defenders.
The German account says that four
divisions Of British made two attacks
between the Estaire- -LaBassee road and
LaBassee canal. Both were repulsed
by the Westphalians and the Prussian
guards In desperate hand-to-h hand
fighting" Sir John French says Of
this fighting merely that after captur-
ing the front line trenches the British
failed to hold them during the night
against strong counter attacks"

MAKES BAGGAGE RULING.
Much Confusion Resulting Over Cum
minis Amendment.

Washington, June 17.-So many in
quiries have reached the interstate
commerce commission over the check
ing of baggage since the Cummins
amendment to the interstate commerce
act went into effect June 3. that the
commission Wednesday made public
several letters written recently dealing
with the subject.
Among other things the letters make
clear that one declaration of value is
sufficient for one persons baggage,
no matter how many pieces and that
each passenger Is entitled to check
without extra charge the maximum
free allowance Of baggage belonging
to himself.
Tho commission also reiterates the
position it took In it's opinion on the
effect of the Cummins amendment,
holding that the railroad had right
to charge an additional sum where the
true value OF baggage is declared and
Is above the ordinary liability accepted
by the carriers.

exceptional merit. The feature act is

work is absolutely novel and nothing

trapeZes are erected at opposite sides
OF the stage. and about 8 feet above
the floor. From these two OF the

third member from end To end OF the
stage. Apparently this third man is
not amenable TO the law of gravity,
for just when you expect him to
fall he rises and catches the hands
and wrists OF his cOnferre who swings
him on the top OF the trapeze. The
fourth man in the turn is a clown and
like most aCrObatic humOrists. he is
as finished in his work as the other
members OF the troupe. The other
act is "Weisser and Reeser' black
and tan singing. talking and dancing
