 British sappers near Ypres and Wytschaete, Belgium, by mine ex- plosions, prepared the way for raid on German trenches. Some of the British succeeding in entering an ad- vanced trench but later were driven out. A British attempt against Le- sars also failed.

The most promi- nent of them were Cardinal Annette, Archbishop of Paris. Cardinal Bourne, archbishop Of Westminster, and Car dinal Gasquet, the famous Benedictine historian.
 Pope Benedict appeared stronger and more energetic than ever as he delivered in Latin his aIlocution, in which special emphasis was laid on deportation of Belgians and the bonn bardment of undefended towns. Af- terwards he created ten new cardi- nals, all of them belonging to entente allied countries.
 Pope Benedict also confirmed the following appointments previously made by briefs; The Very Rev. George Mundelein, as archbishop of Chicago; Right Rev.

HIGH COST OF LIVING
 AS A LEGISLATIVE PROBLEM
Overshadowed All Other Issues in First Days Session of Congress.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The high cost of living and the problem of what the federal government can do to control it, overshadowed all other issues in the first days proceedings of the sec ond session of the 64th congress.
 The possibility that President Will son will deal with the subject in special address grew stronger, al though it was thought the president might select separate occasion for it, rather than add it as Q supplement to his general address tomorrow.
 Eleven bills and resolutions seek. ing to check the soaring prices of food by stopping shipments to Flu rope, reducing parcel post rates on foodstuffs, or controlling cold stor- age, were introduced today in the house.
 Reports being gathered by the de- partments of agriculture and com merce are being laid before the presi- dent as fast as they are compiled and upon them he is expected to decide on any action. which undoubtedly will be prefaced by a special address to con- gress.
 One report submitted today by Sec retay Redfeld and held as confden- tial as yet. is believed to show wide margin between prices paid to pro- ducers and those paid by consumers. In recent address the president vir- tually charged the middleman with responsibility for the high cost of liv- ing.

MADE A FEINT <ssS0 NORTH
 AND ae AROUND
I'D INTO THE CITY
Bandits Are Now Said to be Moving South From San Andres in the Di- rection of satevo, With Torreon Their Objective.

Fl Paso, Texas, Dec. 4.-Villa's ban dits were retreating north toward the border the night before Chihuahua City was evacuated by Carranza from a reliable source.
 For four hours the forces of Gen eral Trevino had beaten the Villa troops and at II o'clock Sunday night, Nov. 26, the bandits were retiring northward with the reported intention of attacking Juarez.
 Warning Sent to Juarez.
 General Trevino is said to have sent a message to General Francisco Con zales, warning him to mass all his forces from western Chihuahua at JuareZ in order to prevent an attack upon the border town and complica- tions with the United States. This caused General Gonzales to order the mobilization of his brigade here.
 Villa Doubled His Tracks.
 Villa was expected to move north on Monday, November 27. Instead, Villa swung around to the northwest and slipped into the suburbs of Chihuahua City during the early morning and started a general attack which result ed in rout of the Carranza forces and the resulting panic. Santa Rosa Hill, the key to the city," was not taken until after this rout was well under way. The two batteries of four cannon eack, Zhich were captured on Santa Rosa Hill by Villa, were not talk en by his troops until after large part of Trevino's command had left the city for the south, it was said.
 Bandits Moving South.
 It was stated unofficially today that Villa and his command was expected to go south from San Andres or some other point on Mexican Northwestern Railway in the direction of Satevo and possibly as far south as Torreon.
 General Persing's forces at Colonia Dublan and General Murguia's rein forced column in Chihuahua City would prevent Villas movement north or east, said Carranza staff officers here. There was no danger of Villa attacking any border town, he added. The receipt of message from The Associated Press correspondent al Chihuahua City today confirmed the reoecupation of Chihuahua City by General Trevine or erzGenerat Mnrguia This was the first unofficial message to reach the border since Villa enter ed the city last Sunday.

NO STRICT CENSORSHIP
 OF DOMINICAN NEWS
Only to Suppress Such Matter as Would Hamper Restoration of Order

Washington, Dec. 4.-When the at tention of Secretary Daniels was drawn today to the suppression of news of events in the Dominican Republic by the censorship established by the American naval forces, he said it was not the departments intention to pre- vent the transmission of legitimate news, but only to exclude from the cables and the local newspapers such matter as would hamper the success of the plans for the restoration of order. MT. Daniels gave orders that transmission of legitimate news to the United States should not be interfered with. State department officials say the only purpose of the censorship is to prevent spreading a propaganda call culated to cause resistance to the American forces in their efforts to es- tablish decent government and re- store normal conditions and prevent further bloodshed.
