The rapidly with which things are
moving in Field Marshall Haig's terri
tory is evidenced by the announcement
that Vimy ridge is already two or three
miles behind the British front. The
Germans are expected still to put up a
most stubborn fight against the loss of
ST. Quentin and Lens but there will be
no Sunday respite FOR the British
troops and the artillery may be counted
on to make both cities well nigh I'M
tenablc for the enemy.

 The end of the strike, which has tied up the copper industry in the Globe Miami district since July l, was brought about by the acceptance of the suggestions made by the investigation commission to the mine managers this evening. The members of the miners union had previously voted to accept the suggestions of the commission.
 While it was not compulsory upor the part of either the operators or the miners to agree to the proposals of the commission, it was believed that the government would eventually rule thai the two factions would have to accept the findings of the commission.
