a total front OF more than three miles
along a considerable part OF which
two lines of German trenches had
been taken
In the district north of Arras there
was desperate fighting near Angres,

the ground lost yesterday. They
succeeded at one point. but else,
where their counter-attacks We're re-
pulsed, and the French captured new
positions in several instances,
The Berlin report announces the re
capture of trenches near Souchez
but this claim may relate to the tenn
porary success of the German coun
terattacks admitted in the night
French report. which asserts that
these attacks were afterward for the
most part nullified by the French ad-
vance. While reporting the re-
pulse OF the Allies ut other points,
Berlin admits the capture by color
ed British troops OF outlying trench
es near Givenehy.

New Orleans Cotton

NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 9.-Cotton
advanced sharply today on the week
end session. at the highest standing
"a to q points over Thursdays close
The advance was partly in sympathy
with the rise In other markets yester-
day and partly in response to the
heavy export movement and the prom
ise Of large cIearances in the near fu-
ture. Realizing held the advance in
check. although the market preserved
firm undertone. The close was at
net gain Of IA to 10 points.
Exports for the week were much
larger than expected, Hester putting
them at 34S.763 bales. making il the
record week for the season. The bull
ish Significance OF this figures was
increased by the fact that over twice
as much cotton is or shipboard In
both New Orleans and Galveston than
year ago and by the total afioat for
Europe of $4,000 bales against 700,-
600 year ago.
The census bureau ginning report
caused little comment Spot cotton

WASHINGTON. Jan.s.-While no
formal arrangement has been made by
neutral countries for common action I'm
respect to contraband and shipping
during maritime warfare, it became
known tonight that the United States
Is receiving the sympathetic support
OF virtually all neutral nations in the
negotiations with Great Britain.
Secretary Bryan ordered copies of
the British reply to the American
note delivered to diplomatic represen-
tatives OF neutral nations. When the
first note was sent there were many
formal requests for copies and 1t was
regarded as significant that the British
note has been voluntarily sent to them.
A days study of the British COM
munication failed to develop any COM
ment from administration officials.
The text will be made public stimuli
taneously in both Washington and
London tomorrow.
ii il known the British note docs
not finally dispose of the questions
raised. but is in the nature Of a pre-
liminary argument. Just how Tar a
long drawn out Correspondence is
foreshadowed, officials here refused
to say.
