PRELUDE TO
Big EFFORT
French Offensive in Woevre
Is Generally So Re-
garded.
RUSSIANS ADVANCING EAST.
Cars Troops Now Hold The
Principal Chain of The
Carpathians.

London, April 1.-THE French
offensive in the Woevre, it is gener-
ally believed. is the prelude to big
general effort by the allies in the
west.
Paris claims continued progress in
the Woevre movement, but Berlin
claims all French attacks have been
repulsed. With the two general
stats in direct conflict, it is difficult
to gauge the results, but military ex-
perts here express the conviction
that the Germans must send rein
forcements to strengthen h e r
wedge, which penetrates to st. Mihiel
and which is being attacked on both
TANKS. They assert that as soon as
this movement begins the allies will
strike at the point thus weakened
and perhaps at the whole line.
The Russians in the east, like the
French in the west, apparently are
making progress in the capture of
important points before undertaking
a general forward movement. They
now hold the whole principal chain
of the Carpathians and at some points
are descending the southern slopes
and are approaching, if they are not
already in the Uzsok valley, south of
the pass of that name.
The allied fleet has, according to
unofficial reports. been bombarding
the Dardanelles forts from the gulf
of Saros. This doubtless is being
done to prevent the Turks from re.
pairing the forts, for it is not be-
lieved here that the big attacks will
be resumed until the land forces
arrive.
Unofficial reports also continue to
come in regarding the gun firing off
the Norwegian coast on Wednesday
night last, concerning which the ad-
miralty has made nothing public.
The Scandinavian papers are con-
WINGED that sea battle has occurred,
although they variously describe it
as a battle between British and Ger
man cruisers and a chase by British
or German submarines.

KrOn Prinz Wilhelm, With Six
ty Prisoners, at New

Newport News, Va, April r.
The German converted cruiser Kron

forced to steal her way past four
allied cruisers off the Virginia capes

"We got in without being seen
by the enemy and we can get out
the same way" declared her COM
mander. Lieut.. Captain Paul
Thierfelder.
When she dropped anchor the
Kron Prinz Wilhelm had less than
twenty-five tons of coal and scanty
provisions for the crew of 500 men
men and sixty-one prisoners from
British merchant ships sunk. Of the
fifteen ships that the drabpainted.
$1,000 ton cruiser sank, twelve were
British, two French and one Norwe-
gian. The value of these ships and
their cargoes, officers of the Will
helm estimated at S7,OO0,OO0.
Following in the wake of the in
termed Prinz Eitel Friedrich, which
arrived here month ago after SINH
lar thrilling and effective operations
for the German arms, the Kron
Prinz Wilhelm came dashing
through the lane of enemy warships
which had lowered off these shores
for weeks before the Eitel was in
termed.
Most of the $50 passengers and
sailors taken from British and other
allied ships were sent from time to
time by German ships to Buenos
Aires, Rio De Janeiro, and Santos.
Three hundred and sixty from the
French steamer Gaudaloupe were
sent ashore at Santos. A time will
be fixed for her departure.

KILLED AT GLASGOW.

Walter Hoig, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Hoig of this city, was killed
in the freight yards at Glasgow last
night and it is expected the body
will be brought here today. The
only particulars we could learn at
this time concerning the accident
were that the Hoig boy and one Of
the Howerton boys left here Tues
day night intending to beat their
way to North dakota to work in the
harvest fields there this fall. 1t is
thought Hoig either fell or was
pushed off the moving train as it
was pulling into Glasgow and fall
ing under the wheels, was instantly
killed, the body being badly mutt
lated. Coroner Peterson is holding
an inquest at Glasgow today and
the Howerton boy is being held as a
witness. Walter Hoig was about
twenty years old and has lived here
the past five years.

ried by Rev. PERRIN of the Congre-
gational church in the open air in
the hills just south of this city
about 500 o'clock that evening,
only a few intimate friends and rel
atives being present. Monday even
ing it seemed like everyone in Malta
and this vicinity knew of the we'd
ding, for the happy couple were
treated to chivarie the like
of which has not been heard in
these parts for some time.
Miss McCombs is one of the popu-
lar young ladies of this city having
moved to Montana a few years ago
from Oklahoma. Mr.. Hartsock is
one of the clerks in the Malta Mer
camille store and very fine young
business man.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hartsock are at

The Malta ball team succeeded in
defeating Saco at that place Satur-
day evening by score of to 1,
and the following day again slipped
one over on Saco by score of IL
to L. We were promised a box
score of these games but failed to
receive same.
This afternoon at the Malta ball
park will be played the first of a
series of games with the fast Havre
team and the game will be called
promptly at 6:15.
Another game with Havre will be
played Friday at p. m.
Saturday, 6:15 p. M, Chinook
will be here for another game with
Malta, and a fast game is expected.
Sunday at p. M, the last of the
series with Chinook will be played.
All of these games are to be fast
and furious and as the management
has gone to considerable expense in
securing this series it is hoped the
fans of Malta will show their appre-
citation by large attendance.
Tonight at the Bison theatre a
social dance will be given for the
benefit of the home team and good
time is assured all who attend.

NOW THEY ARE COMING BACK.

So many of our American citizens
were anxious to take up land IN
Canada a few years ago. It's diff
ferent today, and they are all get
ting back here the best way they
can and as fast as they can. A NAL
ia party, who had occasion to visit
Canada this week reports that he
met no less than five outfits of men
on their way to the states. One
buggy contained five able bodied
men and one woman. 1t seems that
the woman had been hired to bring
the men across the line. 1t has
been denied that conscription had
been resorted to by Canada to Sc
cure recruits, but from the above it
would seem it was SO as all of these
persons stated that they were drawn
for military service and were leav-
ing everything they had on that &C
count.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. Eight names now appear on the state de- partment's list of American passen- gers not foU,.i among the survivors of the lost Arabic. They are: Mrs. F. T. Moore, Mir and Mrs. Frank Bur gess, J. Kellett, Mrs. Josephine Bru- guiere, James Houlihan, Edmund Wood and Thomas Elmore.
 Another dispatch from Vice. Consul Thompson of Queenstown to the state department, sent last night, quoted a brief account of the torpedoing of the Arabic from one of the passengers. whose name the state department did not make public.
 The passenger said he had come OIL deck from breakfast, and was look ing at the steamship Dunsley which had been torpedoed and was sinking Someone said: Here it comes now The passenger declared, according uo Thompson's dispatch: "I looked and saw a torpedo coming about 300 yards away. It struck the Arabic on the starboard side about 900 feet from the stern and three feet below the water line"
 For a while some officials. hearing the Arabic was conveyed for a time on it's journey from Liverpool, thought this might have caused the German submarine to disregard the rule to visit, search and giving warning. Later, however, the statement of the American survivor transmitted off cially told how the lifcboats drifted four hours before being picked up.
 This is regarded as destroying the theory the convoys could have been anywhere in the vicinity when the Arabic was sunk. Even if the Arabic had been conveyed part of the wa!, it would not affect the status, in the

Nearly six inches of rain had fallen. The wind is high.
 The flood in St. Louis is due in Fart to backwater in the storm sew CTS in the western part of the city ard in part to the tremendous rise of the Despres river which went out of .te banks in the western and south ern parts of the city. flooded part of the populous suburbs of MapleWood land Greenwood, interrupted train ser vite of three railroads and caused the annulment of street car service to suburban towns.

Consular Messages Defi- nitely Show Arabic Was Torpedoed Without Warn ing and Situation i'll Washington is Tense ATTITUDE IS
 STILL RECEPTIVE Final Decision Rests With the President, But He Will Make No Statement. Reserves Judgment and Awaits Accurate Details
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHl

WASHINGTON. Aug 2O.-Tension increased in official quarters tonight when consular messages forwarding affidavits from the American survi- vors of the Arabic brought definite information that the vessel was tor pcdoed without warning and prob ably some Americans ware lost. There SC ems but one point remained to be cleared up-whether the Arabic at tempted to ram the submarine or a change in the liners course to as sist the already sinking British steamer Dunsley nearby was misin- terpreted by the German submarine commander as a hostile approach.
 The attitude of the American gov ernment for the moment is receptive, anxiously awaiting accurate details and reserving judgment as to whether the action was deliberately unfriend- ly''
 A final decision rests with the president. He would make no sras- ment The general trend of com ment was that the American govern ment had reached point where it must now decide whether it will se- yer diplomatic relations with Ger many.
 The president motored to Philadel- phia to see an occulist. He consulted Secretary Lansing before leaving and conferred with him again tonight. In addition to awaiting information from American survivors, the embassy of London, American consuls and offi- cials expect some word from Am bassador Gerard at Berlin to indicate whether the attack without warning had the sanction of the German gov ernment Should Germany offer an explanation asserting their qualifying circumstances such as an attempt by the Arabic to escape or to ram the submarine, the disposition on Ger many's part to discuss the case in all likelihood would be construed here as a disavowal of any intention deliberately to violate the principles for which the United States con- tended.
 Officials here have found it diff cult to reconcile the act with pre- vious declarations from Germany that the purpose of the submarine war fare was to prevent the carriage of munitions of war to the allies. The port, and carried, therefore, no con- traband. Censorship in Great Britain of the press dispatches on the disas ter created the impression that per haps facts are being withheld which might affect the case vitally.
