GERMAN LINE GIVES
WAY BEFORE GREAT
ASSAULT OF ALLIES

-
cupancy of territory by any beligerent
since the German sweep toward the
Marine thrilled England today. Allied
forces this time are the gamers. 1t Is
the German line that has given away
Nearly 500 square mile of territory
between the Arras sector and River
Disc have been added to the allies
holdings.
REJOICING IN ENGLAND.
Although there was general rejoicing
today over the success of the allies
push" experts were inclined to put
the soft pedal on the popular tendency
toward over optimism.
They pointed out that the German
retreat was not a headlong flight but
a methodical. systematic turning back
from untenable positions to others,
doubtless long and carefully prepared.
The retreat has undoubtedly been
accelerated by the allies unexpected
superiority--unexpec to the Ger
mans. They havessurprised the enemy
with the vigor of their pursuit.
But the lack OF reports of any con-
by the Germans indicates the with
drawal was far from a disorderly re-
treat.
NEW LINE OF DEFENSE.
There was much guessing here to-
day as to the new line to which the
Germans were retreating. The one
most favored by military experts was
from Donai to Cambria St Quentin,
La Fere and Scissors. Observers here
do not think the Germans will permit
the allies to gain the approaches to
the valleys of the Sambre Scheldt and
Scarpe without strenuously contesting
of their advance.
Today the allies were consolidating
their lines and still pressing steadily
against the Germans. on the whole
front of 20 miles along which the great
push developed the gains the British
and French forCc7 have taken about
30 cities, towns and villages.

STATEMENT ISSUED.
The following statement was issued
by the mediators at 6 a. M:
I'VE desire to express our apprecia-
ton of the large and patriotic action
Of the railway managers committee
which has put beyong peradventure
the possibility of a nation wide strike,
THE railroads have met the full de-
mands Of the Adamson eighth law.
This concession was secured as the
elimination of two days of negotia-
tions.
Our first effort was to secure a
postponement of the strike which was
fixed for Saturday night. This was
secured by presenting to the railway
managers a memorandum agreement
drafted by the brotherhoods which
with some particularly expressed the
provision of the Adamson law.
I'VE asked the railways TO agree that
If the Adamson law was held to be
constitutional. that this construction
and application would be given to it.
The railways agreed to this at joint
session between the brotherhood chiefs

came to the assistance Of Bilms, and
both policemen declared they were
obliged TO use their clubs. The crowd
voiced its disproval OF the arrest by
throwing stones. The policemen
dragged Prendirnamo into q hallway
adjoining the Grand Theater, where
he was attended to by DR.. Anna Vein
traub, ambulance surgeon.
After reaching the Adams street
station. the seaman again became
bellicose, say the police. The crowd
outside, also, continued threatening.

BALTIMORE. Sept. 1o.-out at
Camp Meade there is . mIddle-aged
man. American-born Of Irish descent
who works from early morning until
darkness helping to erect the canton
ment for the men OF the national
army.
Even through the day two voices
from the dead guide his hand and his
heart In helping to prepare America
to Rrapple with the foe. This man,
James Murray, q native OF Columbus,
Ohio, and q former member OF the
British navy. was obliged to bid fare
we'll to the service OF the allies when
he was wounded in the battle of Jut-
land.
Two of his sons lie in graves some
where in France" Michael, killed at
the battle Of Neuve Chapelle. and
Harry, killed at Ypres. A third son,
Charles. inspired by the examples Of
the sbrothere. has entered an Irish
regiment. and. soon will be on his way
to the front.
Comes to o. 8. to Aid.
Murray arrived at the camp a few
days ago, shortly after completing a
trip from Genoa. Italy, to q port in
America Prior to making that trip
he worked In a munition factory in
Wilmington, Del.
Murray wanted to stick to the Eng
lish navy, but he couldn't. He was
in the dreadnaught Ajax in the bat
tie of Jutland and was 30 badly torn
in his right side by the fragment OF
a German shell that he spent many
months in an English hospital near
Portsmouth. When discharged from
the hospital he was placed on the
disabled list. There was nothing for
him to do but to look around and see
what he could best do in the way Of
helping the cause Of the allies. He
made several trips on merchant YES
sells in the hope Of recuperating
enough to get back In the navy, but
failed. It was when he learned that
both his sons had been killed in bat
tie there that he turned his attention
TO the munition plants. He has work.
ed in several of hem.
In his work at the camp Mr.. Muir
ray encourages his comrades to put
forth every bit of energy. He tells
them that the more they do the better
they will serve their country. He
seldom talks about the deaths OF his
sons or the service he has had, though
he admits that he has had the pleas
ure OF seeing more than one German
ship sunk. I
MI. Murray says that HIS sons have
simply done their bit and that he Is
trying to do his. In Italy he saw the
MANNED soldiers. He saw men who
had been blinded and whose minds had
been wrecked in battle, Just as he had
seen such men In England and France.
They all have made sacrifices, says
Mr.. Murray, and he promises that as
long as he has eyes TO see and hands
to do the work he will stick until vic
tory comes.
