Heavy Fighting at Benta RiUer
German Morale Reported impaired
(By Review Leased Wire)

ITALIAN HEADQUARTERS IN
NORTHERN ITALY, Nov. 24.-Heavy
fighting continued throughout last
night on both sides of the Brenta
river with the result indecisive. Be-
tween the Brerta and Piave rivers
the Italians are contesting every foot
of ground.
The enemy is attempting to come
down the Brenta valley on both banks
of the river in an endeavor to reach
Bassano and the open plain. On the
east bank the fourth army drove back
two attacks in force. On the west
bank the first army took the initia-
tive in a dash attack TO regain the
lost position at the upper end of the
Brenta valley. The enemy's resist
ance was of a determined nature.
West of the Brenta the territory is
now fairly held by the defenders and
the main enemy pressure is concen-
trated between the Brenta and the
Piave. where the Italians are making
a splendid resistance. The fighting
has been desperate and the losses are
heavy.

BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN
FRANCE, Nov. 24.-Bourlon wood.
which dominated Cambria from the
west, is probably in British hands
this morning as a result of the san
culinary struggle wsged yesterday on
its slopes. Bourbon village at the
northwest fringe OF the forest was
still held by the Germans, who fought
bitterly all day against the advancing
troops. The enemy still retained his
hold on the village of Fontaine. about
which intense fighting proceeded
throughout Friday. The latest infor-
nation from that place was that it
was ablaze.
The British yesterday advanced
their line still further to the west
of Moeuvres. and there were meager
reports indicating that their place was
closely invetsed. Many more German
guns have been found among the ma
terial captured, the number being es-
timated at about 1900. Prisoners were
still coming back this morning.
Fighting Still Desperate
The fighting yesterday at Bourbon
wood and around Fontaine was of a
most desperate nature British troops
yesterday morning were holding a line
on the low ground about the southern
fringe of the wood and from these
positions it was necessary to charge

Wilson Objects to
Deportation of
Bisbee 1. ". ".
by Review Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24-Severe
criticism of the persons responsible
for the deportation of 1856 striking
copper workers from Bisbee, Ariz.
and the Warren mining district last
July u, is contained in a report Of
President Wilson's special labor COM
mission, made public tonight by the
president.
The deportation was carried out by
the sheriff of Cochise county and
about 200 armed men. "presuming to
act as deputies under the sheriff's au-
thority," the report said, "and was
wholly illegal and without authority
in law, either state or federal"
After extensive investigation of the
cause and circumstances surrounding
the copper miners strike, the COM
mission found that the deportations
were planned by a number of Bisbee
citizens, and although no disor-
cdr or violence had been threat
ened by the strikers. Most OF the
men forcibly herded together and sent
out of the state on a special train of
box cars were law abiding American
citizens. the report said. and few were
Germans or Austrians.
No reference was made in the re-
port to the question of whether any
were members or leaders of the In
dustrial Workers of the World
The commission reported that the
deportation interfered with operation
of the selective draft law and sug-
geste1 the president refer the evil
dence to Attorney General Gregory.
1t was also found that the leaders in
the enterprise utilized the local office
of the Bell Telephone company and
attempted to exercise a censorship
over parts of interstate telegraph tele-
phone lines. to prevent information
concerning the deportations from
reaching the outside world. This sit
uation should be referred to the in
terstate commerce commission for in
vestigation, the commission suggested.
Both recommendations have been
followed by the president, it was an
nounced tonight.
The commission recommended fur
ther that steps be taken to prevent in
reference with men who seek admis-
sion TO the Warren mining district
''in a peaceful and lawful manner"
that the responsible law officers Of
the state and county pursue appro-
pirate remedies" for the vindication
OF the law.

(By Review Leased wire)

BRITISH ARMY HEADQUARTERS
IN FRANCE, Nov. 24.-The Germans
have been rushing guns to the Cam
brai setcor, as far as possible from
other parts of the line, as they have
suffered serious losses in artillery. The
counter battery work OF the British
has been most successful from the be-
ginning and prisoners admit that a
large number OF their guns rave been
knocked out No accurate account
has been made as ye. of the captured
booty in British hands but consider
able portion of the guns are heavfes.
lnnumerable machine guns were also
captured.
The work of the British air service
since Tuesday mas been magnificent.
Because of atmospheric conditions the
airmen have been forced to fly exceed
ingly low. This has placed them with
in the range not only of the machine
guns but of the rifles.
The emmy airmen have not been in
ac i've and numerous battles have TAX
en- place in the midst of laden clouds.
The Germans have suffered consider
able losses in machines. One British
brigade of planes, has in fighting be-
fore Cambria, raised its total OF enc
my planes shot down during the year
to four hundred.
Tanks Work Fine.
The work accomplished by the tanks
has had bad effect on the morale Or
the German troops, according to pris-
oners. When the tanks made their
first appearance on the western front
they filled the Germans with dismay.
This fear diminished, however, be-
cause OF the belief that the artillery
could cope with the iron monitors. The
great numbers of tanks thrown into
Tuesdays attack made it impossible
for the German artillery to deal with
them, and as result something of the
old fear came back to the enemy in
fantrymen.
Smash Barbed Wire.
The tanks have come through thus
far with losses remarkably small, in
view of the vigorous warfare they car
ried deep into the enemy territory.
Their greatest feat was the smash
ing of the deep strung of barbed wire
before the Hindenburg line and the
manner in which they crossed bitches
and mounted through wooded eleva-
tions like Bourbon wood has given add
ed evidence to their practicabili.y.
