GAIN ON ALL SIDES
ALLIED ARMIES CLAIM TO HAVE
GERMANS BACK ON ALL
FRONTS.
KAISER IN soMME SECTOR
General Haig's Force Only Five Miles
From Bapaume Base-Pound Ger
man Third Line-Another Force of
Russian Troops Land in France.

London, July 19-The allied armies
on all fronts have pushed the Germans
back.
The most notable advances were
made by the British in the Somme sec
tor and the Russians in the Volhynia
district. The Italians claim advances
against the Austrians, while the Slav
offensive in the Caucasus is develop
ing.
The British lines in the SOmme have
been advanced to within five miles of
Bapaume, the first objective of the
present offensive, while the cars
forces during the day drove the Ger
mans back and captured nearly $4,000
in the Volhynian region alone. On
other fronts they captured 1000.
AS result of the British advance in
the Somme, they are hammering away
with Sheir big guns at the German
third line of defenses.
Monday they captured 1900 yards of
enemy second-line trenches north of
Bazentin-le-Petit wood, strong Ger
man position at the Waterloo farm, be-
tween Longueval and GuillemOnt, be-
sides completing the capture of the
whole of the village of Ovillers la Bois-
selle.
The Germans are paying high price
in their efforts to stem the Anglo
French onrush in the Somme sector.
This is proved by evidence in the
shape of documents captured from the
Germans which give testimony of the
terrific losses suffered by the defend
ers.
That the kaiser believes the Somme
sector is in critical danger is evidenced
by his presence on that front.
The night report covering activities
of the afternoon says that rain and
heavy mist have impeded operations,
and deals in generalities of the cam
paign to date.
The day report, however, describes
the advance of the British in the
Somme sector during last night and
this morning.
The progress claimed has aroused
enthusiasm among the British public
hardly less than that caused by the
reception of the first news of the allied
offensive.
The French in the vicinity of Pc
rome are temporarily at standstill,
pending a further effort on the part Of
the British to straighten out their line
before Bapaume.
More Russian troops disembarked at
Brest, but the war office refused infor-
nation regarding the number of men
in the contingent.

ORPET IS SET FREE
JURY REACHES VERDICT OF Ac-
QUITTAL AFTER TAKING
THREE BALLOTS.
OUT FOUR HOURS AND HALF
Youth Sat Unmoved in Chair as If in
Stupor When Finding Was An
nounced - Mother Leads Youth
From the Courtroom.

Waukegan, H., July 18.-Will Orpet
Is free.
The jury reached a verdict of acQuit-
tai after four hours and thirty-n1ne
minutes elaboration and three bal
lots. The verdict means the young col
lege student was not responsible, In
the eyes of the law, at least, for the
death of Marian Lambert, his one-time
sweetheart, February 9.
And thus ended the story of clan
destine love, deception and death which
began when Orpet and Marian were
high school students together.
She paid her part of the penalty by
death by poison within the shadows
of the three oaks in Helms woods. Or
pet paid his part by two months of tor
ture at the hands Of the state in its at
tempt to convict him.
Judge Donnelly received the verdict
from James G. O'Shea, the foreman
Of the jury. The stuffy little court
room was crowded. The verdict was
read. The words "Not guilty" were
heard.
Orpet sat unmOved in his chair as
though he was in a stupor. He was
not the same Will Orpet who had sat
In the courtroom for the past two
months-calm, cynical, sneering. Be
side the defendant were his mother,
Mrs. Edward Orpet, and Mrs. Edwin
Taylor, his landlady in Madison, Wis.
The mother of the boy burst into
tears when she realized he was free.
From the worry first day of his impris-
onment she had stood by him. And
each session of the court saw her seat
ed beside him.
She took his arm and led him from
the courtroom,s from the throng of per-
sons who encircled him. In an ante
room she put her arms around him and
kissed him. She had believed in his
innocence from the start.
