 It was no time, Mir. Hughes de clared, for his political opponents to complain about criticism. We are taking account of stock" he said in his Newburgh speech. Our opponents seem to be a little averse about the stock taking. They seem to have the idea that there should not be any criticism of the administration. Well, we would not do very we'll in Ameri- can life under our institutions if We went ahead in that way. We want fair criticism. We want candid cri- Licism, but we must conserve the op- portunities of American life and the honor of the American name"
 The policy which would conserve the American name and result in up- holding American rights was not the only policy of braggarts, he said

ALLIES ON SOMME LOSE 6OO,OOO MEN
 IN BIG OFFENSIVE
British Casualties Reach 4OO,- OOO, at Rate of 5000 Men Per Square Mile Recovered From Germans.
(By Review Leased Wire)

BERLIN, Nov. 8. (via London)-Es- inmates of the Franco British losses during the four months offensive on the Somme front, emanating from German general headquarters, give loss in round numbers as 600,000. The survey places the British losses at 100000 and those of the French at 1S0,G00 The estimates, the survey says, are regarded as moderate ir view of the fact that the British cas- ualties lists admit losses of 37O,000 to the end of September. The writer claims that each square mile of terri tory recovered cost the allies more than 5000
 That the original purpose was to get through, is shown by the prodig ious scale of the preparations and the huge masses of reserves held in read mess to be thrown into the broken German lines. The writer contends that the claim of the entente allies that the plan was not to break the German lines, but merely to relieve the pressure elsewhere by holding fast a large part of the German fore es, is only an after-thought invented to cover the evident failure of the of fensive to reach it's objective.

 Dr. Haffner told a graphic story of the holdup and robbery of the train at Laguna station and of the execu- tion Of the Carranza troop escort which accompanied the train from Juarez.
 Tt was growing dusk as we slowed down for Laguna station," he said. 'I had seen the men of in the distance but did not know they were bandits until the train came to sudden stop and we discovered that the engine, tender and baggage car had been de- railed," he continued.
 We heard shooting and then a bandit with large hat and with his pistols drawn, came through the train and ordered us all to leave it.
 An awful sight met our gaze as we alighted from the train onto the ground. The Carranza soldiers com posing the escort were being shot down like dogs. I counted thirteen dead soldiers along the track and more bodies a short distance away where they were shot with pistols by the bandits where they stood. One boy of 15 years kept saluting and begging the commander of the bandits to spare his life. His answer was a bullet from the commanders pistol. In all more than twenty soldiers were shot.
 All of our clothing but our under wear was taken by the bandits. My camera, my purse, watch and every thing else l possessed was taken in cluding my suitcase. The women were not robbed of their clothing as was reported. Three wagons were driven

WAR SU M M ARy.

Violent fighting continues to mark the Austro-German attempts to pene- trate the plain of Rumania south of Kronstadt and Hermannstadt and to- ward Bucharest. The stiff defense of the Rumanians is yielding slowly to the blows of Austro-German artillery about Predeal, and Berlin announces further pIogress south of the border. East of Predeal, however, the Ruma- nians advancing in the Buzea valley have driven the invaders back over the frontier in the region of Table Butzi. They also have taken Mount Siriul and Taturmio, along the Tran sylvanian border southeast of KIan, stadt. South of Hermannstadt in the region of Rothenthurn Pass the Austro- Germans have extended their lines and captured an addition $50 prison CTS. West of Rothenthurm, and in the Prahova valley the Rumanians are holding their ground.
 On the eastern front fighting has taken place east of Kovel, in Volhynia and southeast of Lemberg, in Galicia. Berlin announces the repulse of seven Russian attacks
 There have been no heavy actions on the Somme front. The French have made slight gains at Sally and the British have taken a German trench each of Guedecourt. Fort Vaux, in the Vardun region, has been occupied by the French, following the evacuation by the Germans
