Aug 25.-Salem s big wedding party
pulled out for the home of the bride
on schedule time, and after passing
Turner and pending "all attacks had
been repulsed and everybody holding
their own trenches, " settled down for
the long and really pleasant ride down
to the new metropolis.
AT Albany a stop of half an hour
was made; the Cherrians drilled on the
granite ground, the band played and
two young couples did the glide, dip,
tango or something, on the gravel
walks.
Albany is evidently sleepy town
for there was no one awake vet, or at
least none at the depot. The station
agent stood in the door, two weary
looking men leaned against the build.
ing, while boy of about 10 Albany
glutted years, girl of some eight, all
four'seasons and dog, made up the
welcoming crowd. The girl was bare
legged and her little feet true to
feminine instruct, kept tune to the
music. The dog made up for the

large supply of p,p.ts all of which he
displayed. The three were happy.
The crowd was still there as we
pulled out.
A trip through the train made one
feel like he was at home for it was
nearly all Salem. Tracey Poorman of
Woodburn, who used to be so thin che
ate spaghetti one piece at a time, :"
was there and plump as "punkin. !"
Two other Woodburn folks were with
him.
There were many ladies and among
them Colonel Hofer, Hal Patton and

ALLIES AGAIN FORCE
WAY INTO GERMAN
TRENCHLS IN WEST
Double Barreled Offensive
Results In British and
French Gain Today

London, Aug. 25.- A successful
double barreled offensive by the allied
forces on the Somme shifted interest
from the Balkan fighting to the west
ern battle front today.
The German war office this after
noon admitted the loss of Maurepas
village to the French. The French war
office announced that General Foch s
troops are consolidating near new posi-
tions north of Maurepas, only mile
and half from the important town of
Combles, the local objective of the
present French advance north of the
SOmme.
General Haig reported to the war
office this afternoon that the British
advanced their lines on 700 yard front
across the famous Leipsig redoubt in
heavy fighting yesterday and last
night, an advance that increases the
peril of the Germans caught in the
Thiepval village salient.
While this fighting was going on
other British forces pushed forward
several hundred yards on both sides of
the road from Longueval to Bapauma,
throwing the British pincers more
tightly around the villages of Guile.
mont and Ginchy.
The German war office, admitting
the loss of shell wrecked positions in
the Thiepval region, claimed the re-
pulse of all other British attacks.
Operations on both the Russian and
Balkan fronts are almost at n dead
lock. No important new advances
have been announced for the Bulgar-
ians since Rome wireless message to-
day asserted that they had halted their
invasion of Greece and would with
draw under orders from the kaiser who
feared Greece IS entry into the war.

clared, in closing large number of
mills unless there is speedy relief.

FEELING IN GREEK
NATION rs SETTLING
Rumania's Position Arousing
Much Interest and Course
Is Closely Watched

London, Aug. 25.-Germany has or.
dered the Bulgarians to discontinue
their advance into Greece and to evac.
uate occupied Greek territory, fearing
Greece will be drawn into the war, ac-
cording to an unconfirmed wireless dis
patch from Rome today.
Several Greek generals have refused
to obey orders to evacuate eastern
Macedonia before the Bulgarian ad-
vance, the dispatch said. Instead of re-
tiring they have prepared to defend the
eastern Macedonia front.
The Greek government is said to have
laid this information before Germany,
adding that public indignation over the
iuvasiOns has increased to such an ex.
tent that the government is no longer
master of the situation. Upon receipt
of this information Germany ordered
the Bulgarian withdrawal, it was stat.
ed.
The Rome report thus far is not con.
firmed from any other source, though it
is a fact that only in eastern Mace.
donia have the Bulgars continued their
advance in the past AS hours. After
advancing nearly 80 miles into Greek
territory and occupying Kastoria, the
Bulgarian right wing made no further
progress. Official dispatches from Ger.
man, French and British war offices at
tributed this halt to the stubborn Ser.
bian resistance.
The latest Athens dispatches appar-
emily contradicted the Rome report,
stating that the Greeks are evacuating
the region around the city of Seres, un-
der orders from the Greek government.
. Russians Ready to Invade.
Budapest dispatches, reporting the
concentration of large bodies of Russian
troops on the Bessarabian- Rumanian
frontier, evidently with the purpose of
crossing Rumania to invade Bulgaria
and Hungary, aroused intense interest
today. The Budapest newspaper Az Est
was quoted as declaring that the Ru-
manian war party is becoming stronger
and that the Rumanian government has
made tentative preparations at the from
tiers, making it easy for the Rumanian
forces to cooperate with the Russians
if Rumania is drawn into the war.
Recent United Press dispatches from
Berlin asserted the Russian diplomats
are bending their energies at present,
not to obtaining Rumania s participa.
tion in the war, but to obtaining per-
mission for Russian troops to cross
Rumania to attack Bulgaria and Hun
gary.

Deutschland fame, was to leave that
port towing barge loaded with rub.
Der and nickle. There is, as yet, no
positive information as to when the Bre-
men will arrive, but all indications are
that she vii put in at this port.
Off Manomet Point, the Willehad
sighted suspicious looking craft head
ing toward her and she chose course
near the shore. The Willehad's s pilot
had received orders that if approached
by hostile craft she should be beached.
The Willehad is the first interned
German steamship to leave voluntarily
the friendly refuge of harbor. The
steamship will not only be used to
house the Bremen crew but also
to lay alongside and give protection
if need be.
The Willehad flew the German ensign
as she came into the harbor and was
wrapped into her berth on the east side
of the pied, headed downstream.
Captain Hinsch of the Eastern For
warding company, which represents the
firm operating the giant submarines
Deutschland and Bremen, was the first
man aboard the German liner when she
had docked. He was accompanied by ]
r. McGovern of Bridgeport, collector
for the Long Island Sound district and
Deputies Joseph Comstock and jeremiah
Dillon. They went into conference i'm
mediately with Captain Gatchens, who
brought the liner here from Boston.
McGovern has been here for two
weeks, expecting the arrival of the sec
ond undersea voyager, the Bremen.
The Willehad was delayed in the trip
from Boston by the heavy fog hanging
over the sound, and anchored during the
night in Buzzards bay.

PREPARING
TO RECEIVE BREMEN
AT NEW LONDON PIER

New London, Conn, Aug. 25.-Nose-
ing her way through fog, while n lit
tie tug puffed and snorted alongside,
the North GermanLloyd liner Willehad
swung to the pier OF the State Ocean
steamship company here today adding
another chapter to German defiance of
the allied warship patrol off the Allan
tic coast.
Customs officials and all New Lon
don believe the coming of the Willehad
forecasts the early arrival of the mer-
chant submarine Bremen from the Ger.
man port of that name. The Willehad
made the trip from Boston without es-
cort Coming through the Cape Cod
canal and thence out into the open sea,
the liner traversed more than so miles
of her journey through zone in which
she was subject to attack or capture,
had enemy ships sighted her. She went
out beyond the three mile limit but was
not molested
1t is believed here the Willehad is to
serve in the same capacity for the
Bremen as the Neckar, interned at Bal
timOre, did for the Deutschland. The
Bremen IS cargo will probably be trans
ferred to the Willehad, which will act
as mother Ship for the submarine,
housing her crew while they are in port,
and also protecting the submarine from
enemy eyes. AS the Dutschland was
nestled close to the Neckar, with a pro-
tecting tug on the opposite side, and Il
wall and barge acting as barriers at
either end, so is the Bremen expected
to.be wrapped snugly into the pier along
side the Willehad here.
Interest was increased here today by
reports from Baltimore that the tug

Immediately at the conclusion of his

According to tentative plans which
have been forwarded to the candidate,
he will set a new record in campaigning
if he is physically fit to follow out the
itineraries which are now being con
sidered for him.
Today the governor thought he would
be able to go through with every de-

lican and progressive voters and also
few democrats.
As tentatively arranged today,
Hughes will conclude his present tour

ing that even now she didn't see the
wrong Of this life"
Attorney Smith explained to her that
her testimony would result in the prose
cution of Kugelman.
Miss Kaufman then told how she met
Kugelman through girl friend. The
love making that followed did not pass
the bounds of propriety for more than
a year, Miss kaufman said. She be-
came deeply in love with Kugelman and
believed his story that he would marry
her as soon as the rich father he told
ner about, died.
In November, 1914, Miss Kaufman
began to live with Kugelman as his
wife and then she learned that there
was nothing to the "rieh father" story
and that Kugelman had been married
at Atlanta. Kugelman begged forgive
ness and added that he needed money.
She gave him the $40 sch made each
week as stenographer but he said he
needed more. She refused at first 70
consider his method of getting more
money, but finally consented. He in.
structed her TO walk on certain streets
and to use certain hotels. She said she
did as she was ordered and was never
molested by the police.
Makes 500 q Week.
Miss Kaufman told how she returned
home every afternoon at o'clock and
tnen at took her place on the street.
She gave him the $40 she made each
stenographer and as slave averaged
800. She retained enough FOR herself
to buy food and clothing and turned
over the remainder to Kugelnan. She
continued this for two years without
q protest until she learned that Kugel-
man this week married a woman in
Brooklyn. Then she consented to tell
her story to the district attorney.

New York, Aug. 25.-The report that
the German submarine Bremen had
been captured by the British was re.
peated today by the captain of Brit
ish merchant steamer who arrived a.
board the liner Baltic.
The skipper, who asked that his
name be withheld, said the Bremen was
caught in steel net in the North sea
and swung helpless for four days until
a British patrol boat discovered her.
Four OF the submarines crew died from
the foul air, he said, berore the subma.
rine was towed into Dover
The British admiralty kept the fact
secret, he said, fearing the Germans
would not start third submarine for
America If they learned of the mis-.
hap to the Bremen. Captain Finch of
the Baltic said he had heard the story
but knew nothing Of its authenticity.

Washington, Aug. 25.-With Presi-
dent Wilson and the railway presidents
apparently hopelessly at loggerheads in
their efforts to prevent the threatened
strike, the president today stirred up
excitement by suddenly calling the
heads of the railroad brotherhoods to
the White House.
The conference with the brother
hoods lasted an hour and half, ad-
journing just at noon. According to
the workers representatives, however,
il left the situation unchanged.
They were asked to accept no COM
promise, the brotherhood chiefs said and
gave the impression as they left the
White House that the president might
be expected to stand firmly by the
proposal which they have accepted, but
which the railway presidents refuse.
The brotherhood men, while at the
White House, placed before the presi-
dent the charge that a nationwide lob
by is being conducted to influence SEN
timent in favor Of the railroads. They
presented kilograms to show that the
Northern Pacific railway is paying for
favorable messages forwarded to Wash
ington.

The following message, the brother
hood heads said, was sent by Superin-
tendent j. l.. Derorce, of the Northern
Pacific, to all agents Of his road:
1T is highly important to get the
trainmen question discussed by farmers,
stock raisers, dairymen and merchants.
Please get as many of these classes as
possible in your town and vicinity TO
send kilograms rush to President Wilson
at Washington, urgently requesting him
to settle the controversy by arbitration.
kilograms should show business of the
sender. These kilograms are to be paid
for from station funds and statement
sent me for voucher your credit want
you to send copies these kilograms by

dent, using our wires for this. Might
be well to have some of the most prom
inent signers send message to their con-
gressmen and senators in Washington in
addition to those sent to President Will
son. This is very important and must
be given preference over normal busi-
ness today"

prompt disposal of the issue with the
