NEWSCENSORSHIP
PROVING PUZZLE.
Officials Unable to Decide on Matter
of Preventing Publication OF
Troop Movements.

Washington, July 3.-Armv officers
were puzzled today deciding how strin-
gently they shall attempt to enforce
censorship on troop movements and
location at the border. They had be-
fore them copies of newspapers, from
over the country publishing stories
from special correspondents with To-
cal national guard units. In most
cases the correspondents specified the
destination of their troops.
The war department has objected to
the publication of this information, yet
officers admit privately that under
present circumstances they do not
blame the newspapers. They point
ont that the Mexican government has
not sufficient agents in the United
States TO gather these reports pub
ished in such scattered localities
and to construct from them a compre-
hensive schedule showing strength of
troops at various points along the Dor
der.
Officially the destination of all ma
tional guard units is supposed to be a
military secret. Oh1cials thought it
improbable that any step would be
taken at this time toward more com
plete censorship. They will rely on
newspa pers not to publish future shift
ing of forces from one point to another
on the border.

THE WAR TODAY

Marked successes won by the
British and French in initiating
their great offensive along the
western front are being systemat-
ically and successfully followed
up.
Heavily pounding the German
second line south of the SOmme
the French have captured two
lines of trenches along a three
mile front and taken the village of
HerbecOurt, two miles northeast
OF DOmpierre-
The captured village is on the
road to PerOnne, the French OBJ
iectiYe in this sector. 1t is five
miles distant from the furthest
thrust of the French advance
To the north the British are
pressing for Bapaume, where num-
erOus main highways join. having
taken FricOurt- which formed a
salient desperately held by the
Germans TO check the British ad-
vance on either side General
Haig'S forces now command the
terrain toward Bapaume.
North OF the river Andre the
British have met the most deter
mined German resistance and
their advances here have not been
so marked as between that stream
and the SOmme. Yet they are de-
clared to have maintained. in con-
junction with the French, the ini-
tiatiye all along the line of the
grand offensive
Gains for the allies are report
ed on the three principal fronts,
the French British, the Russian
and the Italian. by the latest news.
The fighting in the SOmme and
Ancre regions and on the south
ern end of the British line where
it is in contact with the French line
is of the fiercest nature and on q
scale never before recorded in
warfare as regards artillery fire.
The British have taken Fric0urf-
an important town and $500 pris-
oners and the French have cap
tured CurIu and 5000 prisoners.
Notwithstanding the great often
siye against them in the Somme
river district the Germans con-
time assaults on VerduD. Berlin
claims that the French attacks on
the famous Thiaumont work were
repuIsed but Paris Official reports
say this strategic position has been
recaptured by the French forces
Berlin admits that German d.
vision was withdrawn from The
Somme sector and that the allies
were able to advance
In connection with the gigantic
battles on the ground, air fights
have been numerous, Berlin claim
ing 10 have brought down 10 ma
chimes OF the allies.
In GaIicia west of KOlOmea- the
Russians have taken by storm a
number of Austrian positions and
CAPTURED 1000 Austrians- In Vol
hynia. the Austro-German forces
are fighting desperately with the
Russians but no decisive engage
ments have been reported.
The Italians are pushing back
the Austrians along nearly the en-
tire front which is said 10 he part
of a concerted plan of the entente
allies 10 press matters 10 a decis-
ion at all points.
