Coffin authorized the employment
at high salaries of real estate experts
when some advised that such en-
ployment did not conform with law,
say those who support Sergel, and
say he is only trying to keep looters

Coffin and Sergel went the limit in

BRYAN MAINTAINS FRIENDSHIP
FOR WILSON

Washington, Nov. 6.-Former Sec'y
of State Bryan today issued another
statement in which he renewed his
assurances Of friendship for Presi-
dent Wilson. His statement follows:

doing what believe to be the duty
of every citizen to do. How can the
president know what the people think
unless individuals express them
selves?
Those who approve of his plan do
not hesitate to express themselves.
Why should those who differ be
silent? The editors of metropolitan
newspapers who daily fling incense
before the special interests do not
hesitate to express an opinion as to
what the country needs.
when did it become unpatriotic
for a citizen to differ from a presi-
dent? When did it become disloyal
for Democrat to differ from Dem

the president declared to be nonpar-
tisan?

London, Nov. 6-That Lord Kitch-
ener's absence from the British war
office, where Premier Asquith is still
presiding temporarily, is connected
with some military movement of
capital importance is the growing
belief throughout England today.
The tone of comment in the Lon

little doubt that the official denial of
Kitchener's resignation as war min
lister was truthful His ostensible re-
tention of the post of minister of

USED NEW GUNS IN
LA BASSE ATTACK
While Aiding British Officer
German Is Killed by
Allied Fire

T ONDON, Feb, l2.-C7:35 p. mD-
IL The British army in France is now
using hclyy howitzors which, accord
ing to = report from the official "eye
witness" with the eNpediuonary forces,
have gained ascendancy over the
heavy German guns. These howitzcrs,
he states, were used in successful at
tacks on the German positions in the
brick fields south of La Bassee canal
u week ago tonight.
"Our heavy howitzers took part in
this bombardment, their fire being
directed on the railway triangle"
The "Cye witness" says: THE boom
OF these pieces and the detOnauons OF
their shells were audible 20 miles
away above the roar OF the other ar
tillery, while to those close at hand
the shrieking Of the great projeCties
through the air was most impressive,
as were the volumes Of smoke and
debris thrown up. The effect of tho
lyddite shells was truly terrific, one
house being blown bodily into the air.
and as they burst among the brick
stacks they created great havoc among
the enemy.
The assault was launched against
a strong position or keep among tho
stacks of bricks held by the Germans
Our storming columns rushed the
work from three sides at once and
captured 1t with very little loss for as
prisoners afterward stated, the noise
of the bursting shells was so great and
the clouds of dust with which the de-
tenders were surrounded were so thick
that they did not observe our men
advancing until too late. At the same
time trenches to the north OF this
point, between It and the canal, were
9tormed by another party. BY selzing
these points we were enabled to oc-
cupy continuous line southwark
from our forward posts on the canal,
which formed an advantageous post
tlon in front OF the brick fields.
