Shortly after that a new blow came
to the conference of conservative anti
BOlsheviki political leaders now sit

The Russian fifth army. they learned,
had definitely gone over to Lenine,

Big Guns In Duel.
London, Nov. 9S-The big guns of
both sides monopolized activity on the
west front today. The German heavy
guns concentrated their fury against
the British in Bourbon wood. In Flan-
ders there has been a terrific sustained
Teuton artillery bOmba rdment TO the
east and northeast of Ypres. Berlin
describes it as of the greatest vio-
lence." Whether it is preparatory to
a German infantry blow on this front
to create n diversion from the Brit
ish Cambrai offensive, or merely an
ticipatory of a resumption of Haig's
Paschendale drive. is matter of
guesswork, but military observers look
for big developmentS in Flanders
within the next few days.
Local infantry fighting has been ten
acious in and around the village of
Fontaine Notre Dame and before
Bourbon wood. The latter is firmly in
British hands. At last accounts the
greater part of the village had been
wrested from the Tommies by two
fresh German reserve divisions. Pos
session Of Bourbon village also is still
hotly disputed.

Even greater strength to break the
Italian resistance is forecast in Of

lieved TO be the answer of the United
States to the pro-German propaganda
which is waxing hot in Mexico and
other countries to the south.
OF the extension of the control OF
exports. the President says:
The purpose and effect OF this
proclamation are TO supplement the
proclamation of August q, 1917. by
subjecting to export control certain
additional commodities whose con-
servation is essential to the policy
OF devOting all the resources of this
country to the most vigorous prose-
cution of the war. Our foreign trade
in these commodities will be affected
only to the extent that control of
their expectation by license is de-
manded by the duty of providing our
domestic needs and the needs Of the
nations at war with the imperial
German government"
Added TO the list OF things for
which export licenses are required
are many medical and surgical sup
plies.

FORMER LIFE GUARD
MAY GET HERO BADGE
A. E. Brown Has Saved Six Persons
from Death.

A. E. Brown. who several weeks
ago enlisted in the United States
navy, because of his record while
serving as a temporary life guard
at the tidal basin may be awarded
the coveted Carnegie medal for brav-
cry. His name has been brought up
for consideration before the award
ing committee and next awards will
probably include his name.
Brown. OF the U. s. S. Bellows,

several times endangering his own
life in doing so. Wide attention was
attracted to his ability, when on July
13 last, while serving as a guard
at the tidal basin. he rescued Harry

In the midst of the prayers of

there is one thing Washintonians will
not be allowed to be thankful for IL
the prediction Of the Weather Man
comes true.
With gloomy mien and dour express

morrow.
The thousands who have looked for
ward to the holiday, when Washing
ton will cease as much as is possible
for time the rushing pace it has
gone since the declaration Of war,
hugged to their bosoms the hope that
the Weather Man lives up to his repu-
tation. and his prediction proves
wrong.
Whichever way the day turns out,
however, he is in line for criticism.
If his forecast comes true he VII be
accused Of conspiring with the ele-

.SUPER-PUNCH COSTS
CONDUCTOR $40 fine
Had Right to Use Fists. But Not
Metal Implement. Court Rules.

Conductors have a right to use
their fists when they are threatened
by unruly passengers on street cars,
but they certainly have no right to
use their punches as weapons. un-
less the passenger is similarly
armed"
This was Judge Pugh's verdict in
the case of Richard Hayden. a con-
ductOr on the Washington Railway
and Electric Company's Georgetown
lines. charged with assaulting Joseph
]. Wellner. a fireman.
The court fined Hayden SO. taking
into consideration the fact that the
conductor was not wholly to blanc.
A street car conductor previously ar
rested for assaulting a passenger with
his punch was fined $50.
Wellner and his brother boarded
Hayden's car at Thirty-sixth and
Prospect avenue northwest. Both
were talking loudly and were re-
primanded by the conductor. At
Dupont Circle, J. J. Wellner and Hay
den clinched. The conductor used
his punch with telling effect. Wellner
caused the conductors arrest
The court said Hayden was justI-
fed in defending himself from at
tack. but not in using his punch as
a weapon.
