Confers with Leaders.
The President arrived here at s:25
and leaves at 10 for Omaha, where he
is 70 deliver two speeches tomorrow.
While his car was being switched from
one station 10 another he conferred
with local Democratic leaders and Sem
ator Walsh, Of Montana, regarding the
outlook in several Middle Western
states.
Between twenty and thirty thousand
persons are estimated to have turned
out to greet him in Ohio and Indiana
towns during the day. Schools had
been dismissed for the occasion, and
children bearing flags and persons
merely curious 20 see the Fresiden,
made up q goodly percentage Of the
crowds.
Through Ohio, where the campaign
between Hughes and Wilson Is one Of
the clostest and most doubtful in years,
Democratic leaders made every effort
70 get the President to speak. Four
teen stops were made and at Alliance
and Lima rumors had been spread tina.
the President would talk. W. L. Fin
ley, the Democratic state chairman,
had wired every county chairman along
- "a
Organization" At every stop local
leaders from towns ahead boarded the
train TO ask "a few words" 70 help out
the ticket. But the President would
only reiterate that be was not on
speaking tour" and cansent merely to
show himself on the platform.
Lima and Van Vert, Ohio, especially
gave the President enthusiastic greet
ings. They are the centres of the 4th
and 9Th Ohio Congressional distrist,
next to the South perhaps the most
solidly Democratic in the country. The
coming of a Democratic President 90
them was an event. In these districts
also live many hyphenates, who, 1t IS
understood, boast the distinction OF
being the only ones in the country for
Wilson. Fort Wayne, Ind, with a
large German-Americsn population,
was extremely demonstrative also and
turned out one OF the largest crowds
Of the day.
Railway men along the line were
interested in the President and stuck
I'D many grimy hands TO be grasped.
In the yards engineers and hremen
would leave their engines 20 crowd
around his car and voice their sp-

them christening him "Eight-Hour

members have been selected and as
soon as their acceptances are received
their names will be made public.

srnressed the keenest satisfaction with
the progress of the western campaign,
which. he declared, only needed GOOD

notable decline in the accuracy OF the

they are evidently written for nome

VIGOROUSLY false In what they relate
and strihngly significant in what they
minimize or conceal. The best example
~ this is their delay in admitting the
fall OF Thiepval and Combles.

Thiepval to be impregnable. and never
made the slightest arrangements for
withdrawal, and when the British made
their final assault a regiment which

HAIG'S TROOPS NEAR
TOFOE'S FOURTH LINE
French Army Completes
Seizure of Powerful
German Trench.

London, OCT. Though rains are
still preventing wide offensive move
ments in Picardy, both the British and
the French swung forward to-day for
local advances, important In their eff
fects on the situation as a whole.
Between Morval and the st. Pierre
Vast Wood, near the junction Of the
two Allied fronts, Foch's troops com
pleted the seizure Of line of powerful
German trenches. This move repre-
sents a step forward on the Bethune
road, bringing the French into position
20 flank Sally.
Haig's forces contented Themselves
with clearing Eaucourt PAbbsye of the
enemy. This important position, less
than three miles directly south Of Ba-
psume, was partly retaken by the Ger
mans three days ago.
With the town completely in the
hands of the British, the line is once
more Strengthened out In this sector
and the way is open for wider opera
tons against both the Albert-Bapaume
highway and the Bethune road.
On the extreme eastern end Of the
British line Haig's men sre now within
a mile of the German fourth line, near
Transloy. Thus the drive on Bapaume
is proceeding methodically from three
sides.
The last twenty-four hours has seen
no cessation in the violent artillery
duels along the whole Somme front.
Everywhere the British and French are
preparing for a renewal Of the general
offensive as soon as weather conditions
permit
In reviewing the situation in Picardy
since the great offensive began Gen.
eral Haig Emphasizes the fact that
the importance of the drive lies not in
the distance advanced, but in the ef-
feet on the Germans strength in num-
bers, material and morale. He points
out that more than $4,000 prisoners
have been taken by the British; that
out of the thirty-eight
enemy divisions engaged have been
withdrawn exhausted and that the
drain on the German reserves has
been enormous.

ZEPPELIN WRECKED
IN MANNHEIM SHED
Twenty-six Men Are Also
Killed by French Bombs,
Say Dutch.

London, Oct. 4.-King George has ap-
pointed Second Lieutenant Frederick
Sowrey and Lieutenant Alfred de Bath
Brandon. OF the Royal Flying Corps,
companions Of the Distinguished
Service Order ain connection with
their successful attacks upon enemy
airships."
1t has been known for several days
that Lieutenant Sowrey brought down
the Zeppelin which fell in Essex on
the night of September %, but Lieu
tenant Brandon had not been men
toned in connection with that raid, IN
which two Zeppelins were destroyed.
Lieutenant Brandon received the
military cross for his part in the at
tack on Zeppelin airships which raided
London on the night of April and
was reported in dispatches to have
dropped several bombs on one Of the
raiders after mounting TO a height OF
1000 feet. The Zeppelin Lis came
down In the Thames estuary after this
raid and sank while it was being towed
in. but I. was not certain whether this
was the airship Lieutenant Brandon
attacked. !,
The Newspaper Les Nouvelles," Of
Amsterdam, says that in the French
air raids on Mannheim, Germany, on
September q, Zeppelin 100 feet long
was destroyed and much other damage
done. Twenty-six workmen were
killed and forty wounded.
Official evidence at the inquest into
the death of the German crew OF the
Zeppelin destroyed near Potters Bar
on the night of October l showed tnat
nineteen bodies were recovered. The
iury's verdict was that death had been
caused by injuries received while
travelling in a hostile airship which
was brought down by the anti-alrcraft
organization.

important railway junction on the Zlota
Lipa, fifty miles southeast Of Lemberg,
according 10 dispatch from Reuters
correspondent at the front In des-
perats three-day batcle, the correspon-
dent states, the Cars troops forced
the Zlota Lipa south of Brzezany, swept
the enemy from the heights domnat-
ing the town and then carried out a
destructive bombardment of the mill
tary establishments and suburbs.
There is no confirmation OF this re-
port in the days official statements,
Petrograd admitting that the Teutons
still hold their positions in this re-
gion. If the dispatch is true the Rus
slams have taken another big stride
toward the capture Of their goal. The
investment of Brzezany by the Rus
SLAMS would probably compel the re-
