London.-The northward drive of

Zled as to whether they propose to

Allies BIockhouse, South OF Norroy,
With Entire Garrison and
Defending Guns,
Blown Up.

London. - Leveling the French
trenches with a hurricane of high ex-
plosive shells, the Germans have
launched another violent offensive in
the west, this time on the Moselle.
Heavy forces, sweeping forward to the
attack in LIE Pretre woods, have storm
ed and captured French positions ex-
tending over a front of more than
1000 yards, penetrating 425 yards into
the maze of bitches.
South of Norroy, on the Moselle,
the Germans also blew up a French
blockhouse with it's entire garrison
Rieupt More than 1000 prisoners, in
cluding the staff officers of an entire
battalion, have been captured by the
Germans in the fighting in lie PHetre
woods. Two field cannon and num-
ber of machine guns and bomb throw
ers also have been captured.
Artillery Prepared Way.
The attack, which was made on the
western border of the forest, was pre-
ceded by a cannonade of tremendous
intensity and violence. Scores Of
heavy guns brought up on a narrow
front were opened on the French, tons
of high explosive blowing up their
trenches and reducing their fortifica-
tions.
The entanglements swept away, Ger
man forces, estimated at more than a
division, were thrown into the attack.
They swept forward and over the
former French positions, driving the
defenders back we'll into their lines.
The midnight communique received
here from Paris characterizes the Ger
man artillery action in this region as
especially violent" The earlier com
muniQue admitted that the French
were forced to withdraw from a num-
ber of trenches. 1t asserts, however
that the lines occupied by the Ger
mans had previously been captured
from them and that they were unable
to advance beyond these lines.
Allies Fail To Gain.
Violent attacks by the British north
of Ypres and the French in the region
of Souchez resulted in vigorous en-
gagements, in which the loss of life
was heavy, according to dispatches
from Berlin. The attacking forces
however, it is stated, failed to gair
ground and were forced to retire upor
their own lines.

In the last few days this has taken tht
form of individual combats high above

toward the Turkish right flank, indi-
Gated that the enemy was preparing
for a counter attack against a posi-
ton we captured on the previous day.
During the evening two mine galleries
in front of our right center were
blown in after which the enemy sub
jected the trenches to a heavy rife
and machine-gun fire for two hours.
After a lull and another outburst Of
fire, a determined attack was made
against the left of our position with
the bayonet. This attack was re-
pulsed with heavy loss to the enemy.
"On the southern front the Turks
made a concerted attack along the
coast, where H. M. S. Wolverine, q
destroyer, got searchlights and guns
to the main body and caused a heavy
loss.
ITO the east the attack was pressed
closer under heavy artillery fire, but
finally was checked about 40 yards
from our parapet. Bomb attacks and
intermittent shelling continued, but no
further general attack was made, and
at $50 A. M. the French moved out,
and by 7.20 A. M. had taken a strong
system of entertainments Immediately
in front Of the left center of the line
called by them QuadriIateral.
"A number of Turks were driven
out of the trenches by the French bonn
bardment and much execution was
done during their retreat. Subse-
quently trenches adjacent to the
Quadrilateral, to the south, were cap
tured after more serious fighting, thus
completing the capture of all Of that

Mineola. N. Y.-Frank Hot, the Cor

last Saturday, committed suicide in
the jail here Tuesday night.
While several of the Jail authorities
declared that Holt killed himself by
climbing through the opening at the
top of his cell door and then plunging
to the narrow court below, Hollis
keeper said he was positive that the
prisoner was killed in his own CELL
where he said he found the body.
Dies OF Fractured Skull.
There were many conflicting reports
as to the manner in which Holt met
his death, but it was definitely estab-
lished through DR.. Claghorn the jail
physician, that Holt died o, frac-
tured skull.
Several of those about the jail said
they heard an explosion, TIE report
coming from Hollis cell. This noise,
1t was believed, was due to the falling
Of boards from the top of the cell.
jeremiah Organ, the keeper, who
was detailed to watch Holt, said he
was Is feet away from the cell when
he heard loud report. He looked in
the direction of the cell bu: it was
dark. Entering he found Holt't body
in a pool of blood in the corner.
The excitement that followed the
noise brought Warden Hulse aud other
Jail authorities to the scene. District
Attorney Lewis J. Smith and pr. Clag-
horn, together with several constables,
were soon on the scene and imme-
diately began an investigation.
No Weapon In Cell.
DR.. Claghorn denied report that
Holt had killed himself by chewing a
percussion cap.
He repeated that death was caused
by fracture at the top of tie skull.
An explosion which would have blown
his head off would have followed an
attempt by Holt to chew percussion
cap, the physician said.
A thorough examination Ct Holt's
cell failed to disclose, according to the
Jail authorities, any weapon CT imple-
ments of any kind which Holt could
have used to kill himself.
Coroner Walter R. Jones, after view
ing the body, said:

doubtedly the man jumped. cannot

A statement on the meat and dairy

Imports Of meat and dairy products
into the United States in the ten
months preceding May 1 last were
three times the value of those for q
like period two years ago, and seven
times those of the entire fiscal year
1905. This movement first assumed
large proportions in the fiscal yeal
1914, following the transfer of meats
to the free list.
"Our imports of meats are mainly
supplied by Argentina. Ten months
of the fiscal year just closed brought
112, 100000 pounds of fresh beef ant
veal from Argentina and from ten t.
fifteen million pounds each from Can
ada, Uruguay, Australia and th'
United Kingdom. The United States
still exports far more meats than i
imports, for although there have beer
record-breaking arrivals in the las
two years.
"It is also apparent that the United
States pays less for the meats 1t buy
than it receives for those it sells. Il
April we imported s,5OO.OOO pounds o
fresh beef valued at 9% cents pc
pound +. o. b. countries of origin. Il
} the same month we exported 25,500
