THE WAR TODAY

NeW progress OF the French in
the offensive movement Of the al
lies on the western front is re-
ported today BY the Paris war Of
hce. Advances from trench to
trench on the heights OF La Folie
in the Arfois district are claimed.
While the policy in the Balkans
is continuing TO absorb interest
Bulgaria is reported in dispatches
to he moving forces toward the
Greek border as well a. in the di-
rection of the Serbian frontier.
Bucharest dispatches received
in Italy say that Bulgarian artil-
lery Is being ma>sed along the
Dobradia front OF the Rumanian
frontier.
The situation 0n the eastern
front is little changed, according
to the latest official reports. Ger-
man gains near Drinsk and in Yoi-
hynia seem fairly well offset by
the reported progress in the Rus
SLAMS in the central sectors. where
they are admittedly on the oifeu-

Ieated Willie Schaefer IN ten ROUNDS
at Racine last night. The newsboy
weller was not clever enough for
Fred and was lucky to get an even
break in three of the frames, the
others all going against him.
Gilmore may be champion of some
thing or other this morning, but he
isn't making any rash claims and so
far has not challenged the entire
world. Welterweight business right
now isn't very brisk and Freddie will
wait until things pick up a bit.
Gilmore made a clever fight, STEP
ping in and hitting clearly, avoiding
damaging returns and blocking the
best efforts of Schaefer His punch
was not very stout, however, or he
could have put the newsboy away in
the fourth round.
In the preIiminaries Rabbit HedIin
knocked out Billy Burke, Tom Burke
shaded Mike Hirsch, and Johnnie Rit-
chic shaded Jack McGill.
Here is report from New York that
is relayed for what it is worth: Man
ayers of Freddie Welsh and Charlie
White, according to this yarn, have
agreed on compromise terms for a
fight in Denver between their princi-
pals July and are only awaiting ac-
ceptance of the terms by Denver pro-
meters. The fight is to be over the
20-round route. Tomorrow another
wire report will probably deny all in
tention of the men to fight each other.

The first engagement Of the east
ern teams of the American league
has ended for the White Sox and
ended in a succession of sensational
victories.
Fourteen games we're played, rain
preventing one battle with the Bos-
ton Red Sox and another with the
Yankees. Of these fourteen battles
the South Siders won II and last 3.
Washington, the softest proposition
Of the eastern contingent, opened the
invasion and took two games out of
four from the Hose, even though
RoWland's gang did succeed in down.
ing the great Walter Johnson. Then
came the Mackmen, who started their
local appearance with a victory.
Right there ended the success of
the eastern teams. Three games
were taken from the Macks, and the
Red SoX and Yankees were swept
back in turn when they assaulted the
local ramparts, nine straight battles
being added to the Hose side in the
won column, which put them two
games ahead of the Tigers for the
command of first place.
No other team in the western end
of the American league has made a
showing against the east which COM
pares with that the White Sox. And
there is no reason to'believe the Row
landites will find the going much
harder when they travel through the
east. Their margin of victories will
not be so large, but it is entirely rea-
sonable to believe they should get
six games out of every ten. Boston
will be stronger, but there will be lit

In conclusion, the Governor ex.
presses the wish that no "hardshtps
in any way OF taxation be placed upon
any class Of individuals or industries
in a manner that will be oppressive.
He calls attention to the fact that
State aid to rural high schools has
not been given sa intended by the
Legislature OF 1911, which made an.
appropriation OF $4,000 a year for
ithis purpose. Owing to lack OF
funds this assistance has not been CIV
en- and this class Of schools has been,
therefore, seriously crippled.
In reviewing the history OF the
States finances the Governor pointed
out that for several years there was
considerable surplus in the treas.
ury, but that this has all been used.
For several sessions past the Legis:
lature has appropriated in excess OF
the revenues. The industrial disturb.
ance in the Kanawha coal field cost
more than 100000, and the prohibis
ton law cut off about $650,000 annual
". Yet no additional revenue meas.
ures were adopted and as a result the
State. has deficit which the Gov
ernor. asks the present session to pro-

anthracite tonnage carried in April as

the same month last year. The anthracite
trade opened in May with fairly salts
factory orders for the month, but there
has been a slump in the demand. Some
producers say they have orders on their
books which will keep the mines busy
during the whole month. Labor condi-
tions are still unsatisfactory. There has
been a renewal OF button strikes in some
districts, and the Lehlgh canal boatmen,
who have been on a strike since the
opening OF navigation In March, have
practically closed the Lehigh and Della
ware Division canals. The labor leaders,
as Is usual preceding the ending of their
contract with the coal operators, have
been unusually forchanded and active in
their campaign for 1916.

GRAIN PRICES FELL;
SHORT INTEREST LARGE
Fears That Marine Insurance.
Risks Will Soar to Prohibitive
Heights.

CHICAGO, May s.-All grains tumbled
Immediately after the market opened.
This was due to the Busltania disaster
and the Governments bearish report OF
promised bumper crops. operators are
inclined to believe the end of the decline
is not In sight. a or even t0-cent drop
would not be at all surprising they say
There was a general but scattered SELL
ing OF all grains at the start, about
cent less than yesterdays closing price
being accepted. The short interest has
increased, according to some operators.
II is feared that the attack on the
big Cunard liner will cause a general
soaring OF marine insurance risks on
both hulls and cargoes to prohibitivs
heights, which will greatly hamper ex-
port shipments.
May wheat huctuated between N.55
and sl57 with the score in favor OF
the bears. July opened at $3.50 and soon
fell to Sl2S, with a further decline in
view. September opened at sl.20h. rose
to Sl22 and dropped back to S120.
Corn and oats followed the trend of
wheat and sold off cents less on the
average than yesterday
Liverpool spot was unchanged, with
an uneasy feeling pervading the market
The market was stasnant with the de-
mand slow. Shipments will be slow, II
is predicted. on account OF the .,usitania
