mans now call their principal line of defense north of Queant the Wotan line, formerly known as the Drocourt- Queant switch line.
 North of Drocourt this line runs to Montigny, thence west to Annay, and connects with the trench system there. All these lipes, however, lack the nat ural advantages which the Germans possessed when in command of the ridges.
 The enemy has endeavored to offset this with artificial strength in the elaborate use of steel and concrete for dugouts, machine gun emplacements and supports for the covered communi- cation trenches. The victory of Mes sines ridge, however, shows that con- crete and steel strong points must yield to the concentration of artillery fire which the allies now are able to bring to bear upon any given poin t.
 The allies feel that they have shown that the German military power can be crushed. the only question remaining being the speed with which this can be accomplished This is where they say America can help with her tremendous weight of men and material and they are looking forward to this help during the late autumn and in the spring of 1918 and thus go confidently on.
 It would seem that a victory must be gained by a series of powerful blows such as that delivered at Arras on Eas- ter Monday and at Messines last Thursday. There is little hope that modern warfare can ever get wholly into the open, and no one is deluded by such thoughts, for the simple reason that retreating army can dig faster than it's opponents can advance. This is true certainly of armies of nearly equal numerical strength and where such vast bodies of men and guns have to be moved forward as in the battles of present day magnitude.
 Germany made her great sweep into France when her opponents had little with which to stop her. Those condi- tions are changed now and each battle is fought to gain certain definite po- sitions. When these are taken it re- mains a matter for military counsel as to whether the fighting shall proceed on that front or whether new blows shall be struck elsewhere. Minor and

Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

SANDERSON, Texas, June 1O.-A jury in the district court last night brought in verdict of guilty in the cases of M Alvarez and Y. Garcia, on trial for participation in the Glen Springs raid. Penalty was fixed at five years imprisonment The raid occurred in May 1916 when a number of Mexicans crossed the Rio Grande near Glen Springs, fought a small de- tachment of United States troops. burned ranch houses and stores and escaped into Coahuila carrying off an aged merchant named Deemer and two other men and a boy Three American soldiers were killed in the fight and several wounded.
 The raiders were pursued by cavalry under command of Lieutenant Colonel Langhorne, overtaken 50 miles south of the border and their prisoners res- cued. Alvarez and Garcia were later captured on the American side of the river, taken to Sanderson and tried

 Local and federal authorities here continuing their investigation of the disappearance of the baby. have made no change and have given no indica- tion of intending to alter the warrants under which the six prisoners were being held. The formal charge is that of attempting to commit a felony by planning abductions, the cases referred to being alleged plans to kidnap C. A. Clements, wealthy jeweler here; baby and a St. Louis munitions maker. The Rect case has not come within the scope of the warrants.
 The coroner's inquiry into the Rect baby's case, set for tomorrow, was postponed today until Wednesday morning. Authorities said tonight that additional revelations of their inquiries would be made then and that undoubt- edly a recommendation would be made for the arrest of several persons against whom suspicious have been cast.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
 MAN INSPECTS
 RUSSIAN PRISON
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

kRONSTADT, June g, (via London, June 10).-The last act of the eXecu- tive body of the Kronstadt secession ists before surrendering to the Petro- grad government was to permit the Associated Press correspondent to in spect the prison in which are confined the army and navy officers suspected of actively sympathizing with the au tocracy. With the horrors of these prisons. partly real and partly imag mary, Russia has been ringing for the last ten days. Heretofore no indepen- dent inspection has been allowed
 In the naval prison the officers con- fined are in four separate halls, mixed with private soldiers, and in the third of these halls with men convicted of murder and theft The correspondent met and interviewed Admiral Kurosh, former commander at Kronstadt, Ad miral Sapsai, commander of the in- struction corps, and General Iergyeff. The officers uniforms had been stripped of the insignia of their rank In appearance they were dirty, pale and unshaVen but not emaciated
 The halls are overcrowded. There is an average of only one foot of space between the beds. There are no chairs or other furniture except small tables. The officers sit and eat on the beds.
 The common sailors are supplied with no bedding whatever and the of ficers, except in cases where they have their own rugs or Overcoats, sleep without undressing on the exposed cross work of iron slab Two officers sleep on one bare table In some cases there are thin layers of dirty straw on the bed.
 The fifth section of this jail consists entirely of solitary confinement cells six feet square and nine feet high. The cells are unventlated, windowless and dimly lighted through a barred aper- ture in the door. These holes are the remnants of the easements of the dis mantled fort. In one of the cells is Admiral Kurosh, the hero of three wars. He is in bad health In anoth- CT is captain of high rank Almquist, who was lately released as innocent by the secessiOnist executives own in- Quiry commission, but who was dragged back by a mob to the jail
 The halls of the prison are oVerrun with rats which annoy the captives at night. The food of private soldier is each captive's portion. T6is is sui ficient in quantity and the quality is not bad. but the ration is ynsuited to men in bad health. Admifal Kurosh complained that his health had been ruined by the diet.
 The officers complained that al- though they have been imprisoned for nearly three months no accusa tions whatever had been preferred against them and they were entirely ignorant of the cause of their imprisonment.

LONDON, June 10.-The occupation by Italian troops of the city of Janina, in northwestern Greece, is reported in a Reuter- despatch from Athens. On re- ce1pt of this information at Athens the cabinet assembled to formulate a pro- test.
 Janina is a city of about 25,000 in- habltants 30 miles east of the Albanian border and more than 100 miles below the battle front in Macedonia. In the last few weeks the Italians have been extending their operations from their base at Albanian port of Avlona, talk ing over various southern Albanian and Greek towns. Last March Greece pre- sented note to Italy insisting upon the withdrawal of Italian troops from EpiruS.
 Referring to exaggerated German statements regarding the number of British casualties in the battle of Mes snes ridge, Reuters correspondent at British headquarters in France says that up to Friday evening the number of men of all ranks who failed to re- spond to roll call on the British side was just about 10000. Judging from past experience, about sixty per cent or these men are men wounded so slightly that they are able to walk. and of the remainder number will be able 10 reiOin their regiments later.

subsidiary operations, of course, may be in progress at several points at the same time.
 Last Thursdays battle may be talk en as typical of the new theory of war fare. It was complete in itself-com- plete in action, complete in success. General Plummer's army. which planned and conducted it, has been congratulated by Field Marshal Haig and takes particular pride in trib- ute from a very highly placed French officer, who. after studying the plans and witnessing the action said:
 This is model of what a modern attack should be-
 The correSpOndent saw all the battle maps and heard a detailed exposition by the army staff the day before the battle of just what would be attempted and what it was hoped to accomplish. Several new ideas were embodied both as to fighting and as to inner control of the operation. Not a single hitch occurred. and it can be stated that the ultimate British plans were attained at a minimum cost. Not the least of these plans was to inflict great loss upon the enemy. If the usual computations IS to casualties held good in this bat tie, the taking of more than 1000 pris- oners meant total of killed or wounded four or five times greater thirty thousand or more
 One of the most gratifying features of this latest victory was the secret ot the vast mining operations, which had been in progress nearly two years, some vast stores of explosives having been in firing position for fully twelve months.
 Any further counter attacks the Ooct ly for them for the British in wiping out the Wytschaete salient have short ened their line by at least one-third in this sector and have therefore, a still greater concentration of possible ar tillery fire upon the new straight line than upon the wide sweeping curve of the old position.
 Many interesting letters have been captured in the recent fighting. The following is taken from an unposted letter written by man of the Fourth German grenadier regiment from the 1 trenches attacked on Thursday:
 Since April 29 am in the trenches near Ypres where an offensive is now taking place. The drum fire has shot everything to little bits; there is al most nothin~ more of the trenches to see Up to now I have escaped with my life, but we have had terrible | losses Half of my company are dead | or wounded. It is a terrible life; it will soon be unbearable. He is best off who gets a bullet and need not 1 longer knock about.
 The Englishman blows everything to bits he can see. He bombards ev- <, erything. He bombards every district up to fifteen kiometers behind the i front. He has also blown our kitchen to niepeS SO we don't get any warm 1 food onlv dry stuff"

redu of Markets of the department of agriculture is
purpose of conducting marketing survey A market
depends upon the production as production must de-
pend upon market. They be adjusted each
other, otherwise there is a hopeless arrangement
Even without such adjustment one may for
one season find production profitable but he has
good reason to believe that the next season will be
profitable That has been profitable is almost
purely the result of accident and accidents do
happen from with any degree of
regularity.
It is the purpose of the Office of Markets to cut
out the element of accident in marketing and place
production in permanent relation with markets
that farmers and gardeners may figure the
beginning Of a where they will stand at the
end of it and also where they will stand in future
seasons In short, the purpose is to make farming
gardening and other activities relating the SOIL
less of a gamble than it has been in the past
Mr.. Collins is here tits year advise us
about production and markets but to find out for
himself all about both. In this work well as
in the later of establishing permanent relation
between production and the markets he will need or
at any'rat will greatly assisted by the co-opera
ton of all .
Cooperation however viii be absolutely essential
to the carrying out OF any marketing plan which
may be adopted,as a result OF Mr.. Collins survey.
