quet Farm. which the British took on the fifteenth. They blew in the mouth to all the entrances of dug outs that they could find and had ad- Vanced their line we'll beyond the farm when a British officer saw two Germans standing on a sort of slag heap close to his side. They beck oned to him. and he thought they were prisoners left behind by their escort but as he went toward them one shot him dead. Both then dis appeared in the earth. Later on other Germans came to the surface and began firing into the backs of d party of British pioneers who prompt ly dropped their shovels and took after the borrowers. When the pion- eers returned after fierce under ground melee they brought with them as prisoners an officer and fifty men. It is supposed that the Germans here had found the forgotten tunnels of medieval monastery and added auxiliary ones to suit their purpose.
 Germans Show Less Enthusiasm.
 All observers agree that Of late the Germans, when left in isolated strong points with orders to hold fast to the death, are less inclined than former ly to obey their instructions to the letter. An officer of the Second Prussian Guards reserve division, who was captured yesterday, was in a state of exceptional disgust and expressed himself freely. We got no support from our artillery" he said. '"The British had double our num- Der of guns and three times as many aeroplanes while our aviators seemed to have lost their nerve. My battalion was always put in the worst possibly position. Some of my men, who were given Rexa automatic rifles threw them down without waiting to fire when the British charged. Machine gun squads and last ditch parties are left to stick in face of the British guns and British charges with the assurance that if they stick a coun- ter attack will rescue them. But the counter attacks fail to materlalze as they did at first. I gave in. 1 had had enough.''
 However, the officers of the British staff spoke of this man in their dis passionate way as a man With grievance and paid tribute to the stubborn bravery of the Germans in the Hohenzo1lern redoubt where he was taken.
 The British spent today in taking ground in a number of smaller at tacks in order to rectify their new line.

gested that her identity had been confused with that of Mrs. Belzer.
 The wounded woman said Graveur told her he had come to Philadelphia with Mrs. Belzer and then persuaded her to go back to New York. Ac- cording to Mrs. LeDuc, Graveur called up Mrs. LeDuc's New York address by telephone and learned that she had come to Philadelphia to see her nephew. He was given the address and later he met her.
 The same evening, Mrs, LeDuc said, they went to a theater, then supper and a dance on the roof gar den of the hotel was suggested. Mrs. LeDuc said she did not want to be encumbered with her handbag, and at Graveur's suggestion she said she left it in his room on the floor be- low Mrs. LeDuc further said she intended returning to New York that night, and after the dance she went with Graveur to his room for the sole purpose of getting the handbag. As they entered, Mrs. LeDuc said, Mrs. Belzer, whom Graveur thought he had induced to return to New York, jumped from closet and be- gan shooting.
 Mrs Mann, sister of Mrs. Belzer, who came here today to claim the body of Mrs Belzer, said Mrs. LeDuc's statement that Mrs. Belzer had come here with Graveur was not true. She also denied that her sister had lived with Graveur.
