JOAN OF ARCS HOME
 VISITED BY PERSHING

PARIS. Sept. 22-Before leaving here for his headquarters recently, General Pershing and his staff made a special visit, to Domremy, the birth place Of Joan of Arc The visit was informal and was made without an- nouncement. There were no ceremon- ies. General Pershing went into the house where Joan lived and into the church next door where she was bap- tized. Later he took short walk in the forest where Joan heard the voices that called her to war.
 Domremy is tiny village with few small houses and one little hostelry, Hotel Della Pucelle The village could muster scarcely a dozen persons to greet the American General.
 On the front door of loans church is a proclamation issued back in 1914 assuring the inhabitants that the spirit of Joan would protect Domremy and it's folk from wars ravages and so far the village has not seen so much as one of the hostile aeroplanes.

CONTRARY TO
 EXPECTATION
 TRAFFIC FELL OFF

ROTTERDAM, Netherlands.-(C respondence Of The Associated Press) Rotterdam shipping traffic last year fell to rhe level of the year 1870 as regards the number of ships. and to the level of 1892 in respect to ton mage to the annual report of the Rot terdam Chamber Of Commerce. The shipping arrivals of the whole coun- try numbered 5,114, with net tonnage of 4.681.117. as compared with 6,351 ships measuring 6,621,47s in 1915.
 Trafflc with Spain, Russia, Ruman- ia and many other European countries is entirely al stanGstill. and that with Africa almost in a like condition. Nearly half Rotterdam's shipping traf- fic was carried on with Britain, Nor way and Sweden. The other half was with the United States and Argentina, whence came the countrys grain i'm ports.
 4 large part of the Rhine fleet was employed in the transport of gravel from Germany and Holland over in land waterways to Belgium. This ma .er.al is destined for German military and other uses. and it's conveyance through Dutch waters has not been viewed with much favor to the Entente Powers, Holland maintains that such transport is permissible under inter national law, and that in these cir cumstances strict neutrality forbids prevention Of the traffic. Another con siderable part of the Rhine fleet, in the absence Of the usual busy traffic with Germany, was chartered to car ry coal from Belgium (Antwerp) to Germany, Switzerland, Scandinavia, and Holland.

BONES OF CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS TO REST IN
 PEACE IN CATHEDRAL
(As&ocidted Press)

HAVANA, Sept 22.-The proposed sale of the historic Columbus Cathed- ral here by the ecclesiastical author ities and fear that it would be des- troyed have aroused such a storm of opposition that the edifice, which is 213 years old, probably will soon pass into the ownership of the Cuban gov ernment as a permanent national mon ument. The Cathedral was completed by the Jesuit fathers in 1704, and it is asserted that the bones of Christo- pher Columbus were removed from Santo Domingo to it's crypt in the fol lowing year, though this is disputed by Santo Dominicans.
 The bones were removed by the Spanish officials at the evacuation ill 1900.

BRITISH FRONT. in Belgium. Sept 22.-Last evening the Australians sue ceeded in raising their banner over the most powerful German fortified posit- ion at Anzuc, southwest of Zinnebek This fact is declared the greatest vic tory Of the British operations of the year.
 LONDON. Sept. 22-Details Of the battle in which the Australians took such a prominent part are described Il an official statement issued today. The statement says that during the first two hours in Thursday and yes terday's battle the clouds hung low with drizzling rain, which made fly ing impossible.

Aero planes and balloons were also of great benefit to our artillery in communica. ting their observations of the enemy's movements.
 Last night, the Germans launched a heavy counter attack against our new lines east of the Ypres. The attack was en mass, bat we're repulsed with heavy losses.
 The admiralty announces this norn- ing that British warships bonn barded the German naval works at Ostend with satisfactory results. Three Ger man seaplanes were brought down by our aeroplanes.
