GERMANY MAKES
READY TO FLOAT
ITS FIFTH loan

London, Aug. 24.--Arrangements
have been completed for flotation of
the fifth German war loan. An FIX
change Telegraph dispatch from The
Hague says the loan will be issued
Sep ember 4, and the interest rate
will be five per cent, as in the case
Of the previous loans. Subscriptions
will be received up to October 5. The
issue price, the dispatch says, will be
%.
Count Won Rcedern, secretary of
the imperial treasury has instituted
measures to popularize the loan,
which, the dispatch says, is being de-
scribed by canvassers as' "the last war
loan" Former issues of war bonds
may be turned in as subscriptions.
The fourth German war loan was
issued in March. 1t was sold at SO R
as against 80 for the third loan. An
issue price of SO for the new bonds
would indicate that Germany, in com
mon with other bel!igerents. is boine
compelled to pay a higher price for
it's funds as the war goes on.

Associated Press Summary

Striking simultaneously. the Brit
ish and French have made substantial
gains on the Somme front according
to reports from Paris and London.
Maurepas has fallen to the French,
who have pushed forward more than
COO wards beyond the town, on q
front of a mile and a quarter. The
British report a 300-yard advance
south of Thiepval, and the capture of
many prisoners.
The capture of Maurepas leaves
Clerv almost surrounded and brings
the French directly in front of the
important town of Combles. Thlep-
val is on about the same position as
clery, and the allied front as describ-
ed now resembles the teeth OF a great
saw. between which they are tena-
cicuslv holding the ruins Of several
villages.
DISPATCHES from the Somme front
indicate that the French are prepar-
inc to extend their offensive for a
distance 80 miles south of the pres
ent battle line. They are reported TO
lave started tremendous cannon
aiding from Espress to Lassigny, and
the bombardment is said. to nave
reached an unprecedented intensity in
the last two days.
No change is reported from the
east, but the Russian offensive in
Armenia apparently is assuming
powerful proportions.
Petrograd reports the reoccupatlon
of the Armenian town of Mush and
the capture of 1900 prisoners at
Rachta.
The situation on the salonili front
remains obscure, but apparently
there has been no important change
since the allied franks were forced
back bv the RuIgarians at the open
ing of the offensive. There have beer
no further reports as to the attitude
of Roumania, and the main interest
is centered now on Greece. Athens
reports Greek volunteers rushing tc
take up arms against the Bulgarlans
Conflicting reports are being fecelv-
ed as to whether the Greeks and Bull
garians actually have FLASHED. re,
ports to the Greek capital state tha'
fighting has been going on at Sores
for several days.
