GREAT GAINS ARE
SCORED BY ALLIES
BRITISH AND FRENCH FORCES
DRIVE BACK THE lNVAD-
ING GERMANS.
Advance a Mile on a Front Of Twelve
Miles After Three Days Of Most
Colossal Bombardment of
the War.

Misunderstanding simultaneously
on an arc OF fifteen miles, running
from Martinpuich to the Somme, the
British and French forces have deliv-
cred another smashing blow on the
German lines and pushed forward
their positions for notable gains.
From Martinpuich to Combiss,
distance of six miles, the British have
driven In their wedge to depth Of
more than a mile, and captured In the
attack the important strategic towns
OF L.esbeoufs and Morval, the latter
q scaDf mile north of Combles.
The capture of Morval by the Brit
ish and OF part of Fregicourt by the
French apparently seals the fate OF
CombIes, which the Germans have de-
terminedly held for weeks, despite
the violent attacks thrown against 1t.
The defenders of the virtually sur
rounded town have left to them Tor
escape only the valley, mile in width,
running north-northeast, and in the
traversing of which they must come
under the guns of the British and
French, respectively, from Morval
and the vicinity of Fregicourt.
Another notable step in their ap-
proach upon Peronne is marked in the
capture by the French of trenches in
the Canal Du Nord region.
Except in France there have been no
engagements on any of the
various fronts. Berlin reports the re-
pulse of Russian attacks in Volhynia,
Galicia and the Carpathian mountains.
Petrograd is still silent as to the op-
erations on the eastern front, but I'M
official advices say the Russians have
begun a new offensive on large scale
in the hope of putting down the coun-
terattacks of the Teutons and pierc-
ing their front before winter sets In.
The Roumanians are sill struggling
for supremacy over the Teutonic al
lies in the Szurduk and Vulcan passes
Of the Transylvanian Alps, but accord
ing to Berlin all their attacks have
been replsed.

A local architect is sponsor for the
following Irish anecdote:
Pat was reported lying at deaths
door, so Clancy and McManigan de-
termined to call upon him and do
what they could to ease his last mo-
ments. Arriving at Pats de;nIciie,
they were admitted by the sick mans
weeping wife and conducted to the
chamber of not-far-off death.
Pat looked very bad indeed, and his
friends hardly knew whether they had
come in time or not. But the near
dead man rose up as they neared the
bed. One grizzled hand pointed floor
ward at the bedside and in a weak
whisper the sick man babe his friends
hand him that which he sought. They
looked underneath and found a jug,
which Pat joyfully clasped to his
breast.

friends, to take last bit of swig
with me-"
Acquiescing, Clancy grasped the jug
and removed the stopper. He placed
his nose to the opening, smile creas-
ing his rugged countenance. Before
drinking, however, he turned to Nc
Manigan. "Sure and he's sinsible to
the viry ind" said he, nodding sagely.

Shipments That Formerly Went to
Europe Via Hamburg Have Gone

Stockholm, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
ing the many obstacles with which
they meet, representatives of Amer
lean exporting concerns here are en-
deavoring to maintain trade relations
between the United States and Swe-
den so as to be in position to take
advantage of the permanent opportunf-
ties expected with the conclusion OF
European peace.
Prior to the war, America played an
almost negligible part in the trade OF
Sweden, export and import alike. Dur
ing the fiscal year ended June 30, 1915,
imports from the United States, how
ever, took leap which carried them
up more than 600 per cent above the
normal. Then came the Tightening Of
the British blockade and the Swedish
war trade act which prohibits an i'm
porter from giving guarantees to Great
Britain covering goods bought in the
United States or other neutral coun-
tries. Under these adverse influences
the trade has rapidly declined, the

more recent months has shown sim

Sewdish government has adopted the
policy of not announcing export or i'm
port figures during the war and 1t is
regarded as a misdemeanor to ask for
them. In February. 1916, the imports
from the United States amounted to
a little more than S2.000.000 against
more than $l3,000.000 a year ago. In
March the decline was from eighteen

LINER DESTROYED
By TURK PLUNGER
Reported Turkish Government
Is About to Admit Sink
ing of the Steamer
Persia.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 25.-Unof-
fetal dispatches from abroad indicat-
ing that Turkey might acknowledge
that one Of her submarines sunk the
British liner Persia, promise to revise
the diplomatic features of that district.
State department officials had no
dispatches on the subject today from
Ambassador Morgenthau. Neither had
they received any official word from
Ambassador Penfield at Vienna, trans
hitting Austria's official disavowal
OF any connection with the disaster
reported last week.
Until the intimation came that Tur-
key might assume responsibility, 1t
was generally assumed in official quar-
ters that the cause of the sinking OF
the liner would remain unknown.
London. Jan. 24.-An Amsterdam dis
patch to the Exchange Telegraph COM
pany says:
According to a Berlin report the
Turkish ministry of marine is about to
publish q statement to the effect that a
Turkish submarine sank the teaner
Persia"
This dispatch has not been confirmed
from other sources.
The Persia was sunk off the island
of Crete, December 80, with a loss Of
l19 passengers and 81 members of the
crew. The vessel went down within
five minutes after q terrific explosion
forward. Nobody on board claimed to
have seen a submarine.

Chicago. Jan. 25.-Republican lead

plans for the party convention for June

Though empowered by the national
committee to select a temporary chair
man for the big republican gathering.
the committee members here declared
no steps in that direction would be
taken at this meeting.
When the subcommittee went into
executive sessions it had before it blue
prints of h coliseum and a tentative
seating arrangement which would ac-
commodate IL, 500 persons, 1900 more
than were provided for in the 1912 con-
vention. Fred Upham, chairman OF
the Chicago convention COMMITTEE; Ju-
Illus F9oto, architect Of the building: G.
r. Hawley, manager of the big hall,
met with the subcommittee.
There appeared to be a general dis
position to forecast that all reason
able concessions would be made to as
sure harmony in the ranks of the party.
None of the committeeman would say
whether or not the harmony plans
should extend to the nomination OF
Colonel Roosevelt as the republican
standard bearer.

bring about harmony IF the progress
