l. The bombarded shell of Old Fort
Vaux has finally passed irtD posses
sion of the Germans after a heroic
resistance, in which the troops were
cut off from food supplies for flVe
days and from all communication for
"a hours. The French. on withdraw
ing, however, still held the trenches
sweeping around the western and
southern slopes of the fortres.
The desperate defense made by
Commander Raynal and the small
contingent left in the fort constitutes
one of the most notable incidents ol
the Nerdun campaign. The fort ha"
been gradually pounded to pieces in a
terrific seven-day bombardment,
while infantry rushes were repeatedly
launched against the slopes of the
fort. its bitches and outworks. Early
yesterday morning General Raynafs
force was cut off for the first tim,
from communicating with the French
trenches three hundred yards to the
south. The means of Transporting
provisions and shells had previously
been destroyed and the stock of food
in the garrion was exhausted.
Use G.csh Troops.
In the meantime the Germans
brought up two fresh divisions and
hurled them forward in five success
sive massed attacks, which. in spite
of the fearful losses caused by th-
French artillery. finally reulted in the
Germans gaining the inner defenses
of the fort and sweeping over its ex-
hausted defenders. No word has beer
received from General Raynal since
communication was first cut and
nothing is known of his fate or that
of his men.
The French lines now embrace the
circle Of inner forts and trenches ly-
ing south of Fort NauX the lines con-
stituting a semcircle Of defcnse from
five to six miles outside of Nerdun.

NO STREET MARKER
BECAUSE NO FUNDS
Badly Needed Signs at intersections
Canno' BE Purchased
Now.

1t now appears that the movement
to have modern street markers erect
ed on the principal street interscc-
tiors of the city would have to re-
main dormant for such time. as the
city is without sufficient funds with
which to erect them.
Mavor Simmons suid Yesterday that
the erection of the posts would re-
quire a large appropriation, which
would have to be taken from the
citys street fund As there is but lit
tie money left in this fund, even for
the required upkecp expenses, 1t is
hardly likely that the city fathers
would take the nccessary action to
drain this fund OF enough money TO
erect the markers. which will cost
approximately $5 each. and would
represent an expenditure of nearly
$1,000 to place the posts at the in
tersection Of four hundred streets

to the flag of the United States
I'VE believe in American policies at
home and abroad.
I'VE declare that we believe in and
will enforce the protection of every
American citizen in all the rights Sc
cured to him by the constitution,
treaties and the law of nations. at
home and abroad. by land and by
sea. These rights which, in violation
of the specific promise CT their party
made at baltimore in 1912, the Demu.
cratic president and the Democratic
congress have failed to defend. we
will unflinchingly maintain.
Foreign Relations.

form all our duties and insist upon
all our rights as neutrals without fear

peace and neutrality. as well as the
dignity and influence of the United
States. cannot be preserved by shifty
expedients. by phrase making. by pes.
formances in language or by attitudes

only true way TO preserve our peace
and restore us to our rightful place
