Several German regiments struck
a heavy blow at the British right wing
north of the Somme last night in a
determined effort to dislodge General
Haig's troops from their positions on

bombs and lachrymose shells. The
Germans drove forward in an effort

a wedge at the point where British
and French lines united.

Conduct Own Fight.
Between HIM AND SULzER
Yelled Charges of Liquor Inter
est Are Circulated.
In. Keynoter, Polling Attacks
MunitiOn Makers.

Auditorium, st. Paul, Mimi, July 10.
The Prohibition national convention
got down to real politics at its opening
session today. The fight between J.
Frank Hanly of Indiana and William
Sulzer of New York for the party's
presidential nomination developed
some old style wire pulling and rough
and tumble negotiations.
Sulzer was speeding to st. Paul, it
was stated, hoping to arrive here in
time to prevent Hanly adherents from
nominating their candidate one day
ahead of the scheduled time for nomi-
nations. SulZer men caucused prior
to opening the convention today and,
after counting noses, said there were
enough supporters of the New Yorker
to give Hanly a hot fight. If Hanly
is nominated, Virgil c. Hinshaw will
remain as chairman of the national
committee.
Religion Mixes In.
Religious bitterness was mixed into
the convention again today The
American Federation of Patriotic So
cieties, an anti-Catholic organization,
which is supporting Sulzer, has many
representatives on the ground. Pro-
hibition, woman suffrage and govern
ment ownership of munitions plants
were advocated today in Daniel E
Poling's keynote speech opening the
convention.
'Greenbackers, Populists and Bull
Moose may perish from the earth but
we go on forever" Chairman Hinshaw
said in opening the convention. Our
cause is at its high tide. Our slogan
once was "A saloonless nation by
1920;' now it is "A salooniess nation
in 1916"
Two KansanS HOnOred
The convention staged a five-min-
ute demonstration for former Gov.
John p. st. John, of Kansas st. John
made a brief speech against the plan
to change the party's name.
Polling. the temporary chairman.
seemed the youngest man in the con-
vention. The delegates cheered him
roundly.
Robert Patton, Springfield, ILL, was
today selected permanent chairman,
with Howard Kershner, Topeka KAN
permanent secretary of the Prohibi-
ton convention.
Resolutions asking that the Susan
B. Anthony amendment be made a
party issue of the Pron1bitionists were
passed by the Woman's National fed
Grafton today. The federation said

RESCUE FOUR MINERS
Imprisoned Al Hours, Reached by
Diggers Early Today.

Joplin, Mo-, July 19.-Four men
who have been imprisoned in the Bah
cock mine near here since 2 o'clock
Monday afternoon were rescued alive
at 7:15 o'clock this morning.
The men did not appear exhausted
by their vigil of forty-one hours, with
out light, food or water, and were
able to walk to their homes. The res
through the barrier of dirt that sep
arated them from the shaft at
o'clock this morning. Upon being
told that they would be reached with
in a few hours and that physicians
and ambulances were kept in waiting
the prisoners declared they intended
to walk home and asked that the ply
sicians be sent away.
Rescuers More Weary Than Rescued
A large crowd, brought together by
the news that the men were alive and
would be rescued soon, was awaiting
at the shafts mouth when the men
came up one at a time. Cheer after
cheer rang out as they stepped from
the mine car that had brought them
to the sunlight again.
The release of the imprisoned min
ers followed ar exciting battle with
tons of dirt and rock by rescue crews
which worked in short relays. Some
of the rescuers had remained contin-
uously i'll the shaft since the cave-in
and appeared more tired today than
did those for whose safety they had
worked SO hard.
I'VE did not suffer much except for
lack of water" Howard Gideon, one of
the four, said. I'VE had no idea as
to the time. as we could not see our
watches. But what worried US most
was the fact that the wife of one of
the men was ill when he left home
