The situation did not result in an
anti-American demonstration The ex-

made for their boat and left the port
soon after. As the officers fired at
the Americans they shouted Death

IF there is not some change in the

there are some OF the common classes
on both sides. The liberal party de-
mands an election with guards Of two

Resuming their offense to the north of the Sonme river in France the French forces have again smashed the German line. captured front line and other trenches and taken about 1,500 prisoners.
 The new attacks, coming after sev : eral days of comparative calm in the region where for weeks past violent fighting had been in progress, were made on the front of the town of Com bles to the river. So Viciously was the thrust of the French that it required only half an hour for them to over come the resistance of the Germans and make themselves master of three and three e-quarters miles of first line trenches.
 Later east and southeast of Combles they seized addiSonal trenches along the Bethure-Peronne read, which leads from Perorne northward through Ba- paume and Arras to Rethune, placing a serious impeachment in the way of the Germans for the movement of their transports from the north of Peronne and making the French position north of Peronne seemingly a meracing one.
 On the British end of the front and on the remainder of the line held by Inc French only mutual bombardnn ents look place. All along the Macedonian front the heavy offensive of the entente allies continues. Bulgarian trenches on a front of two miles and to depth of eight hundred yards are reported by Paris to have been captured by the French west of the Vardar river near Majadagh, which lies about four miles

 FOUND IN RIVER.
Noted Geologist Believed to Have
 Committed Suicide.

Columbus, O., Sept. 12-A fisher man early today found the body of Charles s. Prosser, head of the geol- ogy department at Ohio State univer- sitY, and a well known scientific writer. floating in the Olentangy river, near the university campus. Professor Prosser was considered one of the leading authorities on geology in this country.
 Friends believe that Professor Pros ser's mind became deranged and that he committed suicide
 Professor Prosser. who was born in Columbus, N. Y, March 24, 1860, was a graduate of Cornell university and before coming to Ohio State had been instructor t Cornell, Washburn coq- lese, Topeka, Kansas. and at Union college. He was the author of more than a dozen books on geology and was fellow in the Geological Society of America. He had many close rela- tives in New York city and the east.

cOASTWISE LINES WANT SAME PRIVILEGES AS RAILROADS
If the Latter Are Permitted to Put in Effect Higher Tariffs.

New York, Sept. 12.-Withdrawal of the coastwise lines fro mcompetition or permission to increase their rates would be the only alternatives if the New Haven and the Boston and AL bany Railroads are permitted to put In effect higher tariffs in place of ex- isting proportional and transs ship ment rates, according to w. P. Lewis, general freight agent of the Clyde and Mallory lines. Testifying here today at the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion investigation into the proposed changes, MT. Lewis said an increase by the railroads would mean an in- crease all along the line.
 "We have never considered the con- ditions imposed by the trunk lines up- on us were equitable as to rates,' he said, "and they were arranged in spite of our protests"
 Railroad officials at the hearing ad- mitted that the expenses of the At lanttc Coast steamship lines had risen in proportion to their own, but they claimed the issue was not the insuf- f1cient rates of the steamship lines, but only of the railroads.

south of the town of Gievgeli. On the Struna front the British, aided by the French, have made additional gains east of the river in the Lake Takinos region. The army of the Teutonic allies is declared to have suffered heavy casualties in the latter engage ment.
 Unofficial reports are to the effect that the Bulgarians have evacuated the forts at Kavala, on the Aegean sea. which they captured in August. While the presence of entente allied warships off the town is given as the reason for the withdrawal. it is not improbable that the menace of the new drive of the British and French along the StruIna front may have been part ly responsible for it.
