n ARIS, July 13.-Germany and
Austria seem to have exhausted
their powerful and sustained
offensive in Galieia and Poland; Italy
Is making but slow progress on the
Isonzo front in her reach for Trieste

western battle front, where there u

sea to the Swiss frontier .s p. %.
In Flanders yesterday, the Germans
subjected the Belgian and British posi-
tions before Nieuport and Lombaert-
zyde to a hot bOmbardment with heavy
shells, while around Ypres they charged
the British trenches repeatedly.
Fnrious Fighting On Aisue
Between Verdun and Rheims there
was furious fighting along the Aisne
in the craters dug by the explosions
of mines and counter-mines beneath
the opposing trenches, and In the
wooded ridges of the Argonuc there
were important artillery ard infantry
engagements, the result Of which still
hangs in the balance. 4

Souchez Is Inferno III
But at Souehez, in the neighborhood
of Arras, there Is in progress an en-.
gagement which can only be described
as internal. The Germans there
turned on the chlorine gas again yes
terday, in thick clouds, but tho French
troops are now provided with respira-
tors and held their ground.
Then the Germans charged and there
followed a confused, stubborn fight
with hand grenades, bayonets, clubbed
rifles, and pistols, as much under.
ground as above it. Thus far the
French have reoccupied portion Of
the trenches they lost last week, from
Carency to the outskirts of SoueheE.

Cignihcant Battle

LONDON, July 13.--Military stu.
dents see in the terribly bloody fghS.
ing around Arras the most significant
engagement that has taken place on
the west front since the battle Of the
Marne.
The French objective seems to be the
lines of lateral communication between
the two wings Of the German army,
both highways and railroads, which az
this point lie nearer to the German
trenches than elsewhere.
Lateral communications are essential
to German success, because with such
large forces employed in the East
against Russia, the German command.
ers have not been able to maintain
sufficient reserves and are obliged,
when a concentrated attack Is made
bv the Allies on any chosen portion OF
their line, to strengthen their defense
with troops rushed up from other posi-
tions where it seems they can bs
spared with the least danger.
French Aim At Railroad
Already the French artillery Is with"
in three miles of the Arras>Lens rail.
road, which it partly dominates, Once
this line is thronghly dominated BY
French guns, preventing the arrival OF
rein forcements and ammunition, 1t ID
highly possible that an attempt to
break through might be made, at al
most any cost.
The British critics argue that the
enormous expenditure of ammupition
! bv the French in this neighborhOod
during the past few weeks, and the
heavy sacrifices of men they have
been willing to make argue something
more than a tactical demonstration, or
Il local success.
Smashing Blows Struck
If this is indeed the major strategy
of General Joffre, it is being met with
Il most determined resistance. For a
time the French gnawed their way for
ward mile or two, capturing the
sugar mill at SoucheZ and the intrlcatG
lahN tinth, north of EcuYie, but the
Germans landed a smashing blow lESi
week, in which, just south Of SouehsA
they staggered the French oAeHslvt
nnd won back a l,s.!ion of the lost
ground.
Now fresh French offensive has beer
hrgun, which seems to be making pro
Errss again.

RUSSIANS STILL HOLD

LONDON, July l2-The Teutonic Rus
sian deadlock in Russian Poland still
continues. South of Lublin the forces
are said to be at q standstill.
From Petrograd there come reports of
continuous fighting ON the thirty mile
front eastward from Josefow, with the
Austrians as the aggressors.
An unofficial Austrian explanation of
the failure of the troops to advance
north of the Krasnik is that the army
was halted here as the object of the
campaign-to capture Lemberg-was ac-
cOmplished.

defended his client upon the theory
that he was mentally deficient and
a long time was taken in getting the
testimony before the Jury.
The jury was out for long time
before IT could make up its mind as
to the guilt or innocense of the man,
finally bringing in verdict OF
guilty but In lesser degree than
charged,
The important action Of the ses-
sion was the tax cases especially the
legality of the mineral reservation
tax. M. ]. Sherwood OF Marquette
appeared for the taxpayers and set
UP three contentious; first that the
taxes should be set aside for the
reason that the descriptions were
legally insufficient; second that the
tax was excessive and third that it
was unconstitutional
Judge Flanagan. upon the testi-
mony presented, found that the des-
cription OF the mineral reservation on
the various rolls was insufficient to
establish a legal tax and on that
point and that alone he set aside the
taxes. The question as 10 the consti-
tutionality OF the tax or the exorbi-
lance OF the same was not passed
upon at ALL
Fred III. Abbott appeared in be-
half of some 40 local taxpayers and
objected to the taxes on the ground
that the assessor wilfully left off the
tax roll household furniture and
other personal property. This is the
case that arose from the revolt a

Iron Mining Co. and the Illinois Steel
Co. had In bills asking for a rebate
Of 20 per cent upon the taxes paid
amounting in all to something over
$4,000. On motion they were dis
allowed. These are the claims that
arose from the fact that the local
property In the city was cut from the
valuations established by the tax
commission.
The companies have certain
length of time to get into court and
try out their claims. Their allegations
are that they have been assessed at
mole than their cash value and dis
elimination in the change in local
assessments.
Claims Allowed
The claims that had been accumu-
lating for several months were paid.
The amount of monthly claims is d.
minishing but 1t is still large as re-
suit OF the many items held back
from former months. The aldermen
expect that a reduction to normal
will soon be made and the city allowed
to go on and get out OF the red which
1t has been in for several months.
To do this the liquor license money
must be secured and the councilmen
are figuring confidently upon the pay
ment OF licenses next spring, not
withstanding the fact that the "drys''
are confident that they will win out
at the coming election.
