upon the enemy's position To the
east of the Bethune highway a recon
naissance sortie from our trenches re-
suited in the capture of q few pris-
oners.
Before Beavraignes to the south Of
Roye, there was sharp rifle firing, ac-
cOmpanied by an artillery duel and
lighting from trench to trench with
grenades and bombs.
"On the canal between the Aisne
and the Marne we gained a foothold
on the right bank.
"On both sides of the post of Sap
igneul the enemy made fruitless coun-
ter attacks and was forced to fall
back, leaving on the ground a score
of bodies and his supply of grenades.
In Champaign, the German artil
lery directed on the outskirts of MOur-
melon a cannOnade TO which an ener-
getic response was made.
The might was calm in the Ar
gonne.
An eficaciOus cannonade was di-
rected upon the German works in the
Bois Haut, on the heights of the Meuse
and on the Lorraine front, where we
dispersed groups of workers at sew
eral points and provision trains.

VIII Insist on Larger Commits
sion for Placing Billion
Dollar Loan of Allied
Nations.
KUHN, LOEB &. co. WILL
HAVE NO PART IN DEAL
Allies Expected to Insist on
Using Part Of the Money to
Buy MunitiOnS-PIan to
Keep Fund Here.

NEW YORK. Sept. 21.-Three i'm
portant developments within the past
"a hours may have an important eff
feet in changing the status of the bill
lion dollar war loan which the allies
are seeking in this country. They
are:
Banks placing the loan may hold
out for a commission in excess of the
one-half of one per cent which has
been proposed.
2-Kuhn, Loeb & Co. the greatest
banking firm in the United States with
German connections. is reported to
participate in the loan.
3-The allied government will prob
ably insist upon their right to use
money secured in the United States
for munitions of war instead Of such
necessities as food and clothing alone.
Pro-German opposition 10 the plac-
ing of the loan has not lessened any
despite the evident progress which the
Anglo French commission has made
in it's negotiations.
Ask Commission
This opposition is believed to have
been largely responsible for a demand
on the part Of the banks placing the
loan for a commission in excess of
One-half of one per cent The commits
sion may allow one-half of one per
cent per dnnuln during IlNe years.
Whether the report that Kuhn, Loeb
& Co. will have no part in the under
writing of the loan will initiate
against it's ultimate success remains to
be seen. The officers of Kuhn. Loeb
& Co. are Jacob II. Schiff, Mortimer l..
Schiff, Felix NJ. Warburg, Otto II
Kahn and Jerome ]. Hanauer In ad-
dition to the bank holdings of the Of
fees of Kuhn, Loeb q Co. the bank |
;e- Of 4
securities.
If the allied governments put into /
effect their determination TO use part /
of the loan for the purchase of arms. |
and other war supplies, |
]. p. Morgan & Co. will profit doubly. |
The house Of Morgan will not only |
get it's commission for placing the /
loan. but will make a big profit out OF /
the supplies purchased here with the /
money, as the banking firm is the /
fiscal agent for the British govern |
ment in the United tSates.
No Agreement Reached.
II is now suggested that the first |
loan of the allied governments be |
taken in instailments the aggregate
TO total $3.50, 600. 600 instead of 81 000,-
600. 600 and that the money be re-
tanned in American banks 10 he drawn
against. Such an action may keep the
money market steady and at the same
time would ease the exchange rate.
The proposition TO keep the money
here Is favorably received by practi-
cally all Of the American bankers taxi
ng part in the negotiations, but no
definite agreement has been reached
IN regard to this point
Another important suggestion is that
The first installment of the loan be Sc
cured by five year five per cent notes
TO net the borrowers % 1-2 and that
-hese notes hold a conversion clause
by which the holders may convert
them into long term government
bonds at a lower rate of interest later.

In short. he chased them; better
than that. even, caught them. And il
all happened merely because two lit

her very best chum. Ethel HallOr. only

troupe at present featuring the bill

girls the world over. they are sup
posed TO obey the manager of their
little company, even 10 the point Of
engaging living quarters wherever he
tells them they shall.
But Eva and Ethel. being economical
little girls. and figuring that a penny
saved means mOIe 10 eat through the
duh season. decided Monday 10 hunt
cheaper quarters than were being en-
joyed by the otner and older mem
bers OF the company. They applied
TO Mrs r. Reed. 207 $ Taylor St,
for a room and secured II. Tuesday
morning early they decided 10 leave

There was some discussion over the
price Of the room. one OF the girls
made the assertion that they had no
money. but the other produced the
room rent from its hiding place in
