Russians Are Holding Gains Made in Spite of Deter
 mined Counter Attacks
BRITISH DRIVE BACK GERMANS ON LINE OF SIX HUNDRED YARDS
French Artillery Booming From Aisne to Mouse. Teutons Begin Local
 Offensives in Balkans

New York, July 5.-From cables received the Associ- ated Press makes the follow ing summary of the news from the battle fronts: With the Russians hold ing their gains in Galicia against Austro-German att tacks, the indications of stronger activity in the other war theatres are mul- tiplying.
 On the western front the British have advanced and the French artil- lery is active from north of the Aisne to the Mouse; the artillery activity has increased on the entire Austro- Italian front; there has been greater local activity in Rumania and on the Macedonian front the Germans have taken the offensive on a small sector. Around Brzezany and near Lipnica- dolna on tho Narayuvka, north of Brzezany, the Austro- Germans have at tackled the Russians in attempts to re- gain the territory lost early in the week. Their efforts against Russian advanced posts east of Brzezany were checked by the Russian artillery fire and two attacks near Lipnicadolna were broken up Further south, along the ungarian-Rumanian border and in Rumania. where there has been no violent fighting since the cessation of Field Marshal Von Mackensen's drivs last fall, greater activity Is reported. There have been reports recently that the Rumanian army, re-equipped and re- formed, was ready to assume the offensive and 1t is probable they arc to follow in the path of their Russian neighbors.
 BRITISH ADVANCE
 Tn an attack against the German lines southwest of Bollebeke, in Fland- CTS. along the Ypres canal and on the northern end of the recent British ad- vance against the Messnes ridge, Field Marshal Haig's troops have driven the Germans back on front of 500 yards. Major General Maurice of the British army declared Thursday that the Brlt- ish army in France had not lost g gun since April, 1915. and that since the beginning of the war the Brit ish had captured 739 guns and lost only 133 of which 37 were recaptured.
 The German crown prince has not repeated his attacks in the Cham pagne and the French still cling to the predominating positions on this front. Meanwhile the artilleries are engaged violently from northeast of SoissonS to near Verdun.
 Two strong enemy columns have att tackled the right wing of the Italian army In Macedonia. These efforts, Paris reports, were repulsed. On thls front as well as on the Austro-Italian front. the artilleries have been busy

A statement by the public information committee says this may be done by Saturday, though there is no certainty about it.
 Reports current today that selections already had been made probably arose from the fact that many boards have numbered their registration cards and in some cases. probably already are pub- fishing the lists as required by regula- tions. The last district will have to complete this work, however, before se- lection can, begin as the administration is determined to leave no loophole for juggling of the serial numbers. It is for that reason that public posting of the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-07-06

lists and the filing of duplicate copies with the provost marshal general has been required in advance of selection. The care with which the numbering of the registration cards Is being carried out makes it certain that the drawing will be based entirely upon the numbers.
 No names will be involved in the actual
 process of selection which will closely approximate, it is understood, the jury wheel system.
 District No. 2 and District No. 32, both
 of Philadelphia, are rivals for the honor of being the first to send to the provost marshal general their complete registra-
 tion lists. They were received today in
 the same mail.

reflection of this sentiment was seen recently in the statement by Gen. Fran cisco Gonzales, acting commander-in- chief of the northeastern military zone. with headquarters at Chihuahua. He was overcharged by the German firm of ! Ketselsen & Degeteau for some pad 1 locks The manager was arrested and placed in the penitentiary. The German consul made a demand for his release s,in the name of the Imperial German government and the Kaiser" according to an American officer who was present l at the time.
 GONZALES ANSWER ''Tell the German consul, the Imperial | German government and Kaiser may all go to hell" General Gonzales answered. 1 Prominent Mexicans. men in close l will declare war on Germany within 30 days. According to these men all Ger man money in the Mexico City, Torreon, Chihuahua City and other banks will be seized as soon as war is declared. the German boats at, Tampico and other ports will be seized thereby giving mexico a much needed merchant lieet and all Germans will either be interned or de- ported at once, their properties being confscated.
 TAMPICO FIELDS The Tampico oil fields would be made safe for the oil supplies of the allies fleet by declaring a zone in which traffic would be restricted and the mines, smell ters and mills reopened at once to pro- duce munitions and metals for the allies. The good effect of such eclaration upon the relations of Mexico and the United States, especially along the bor- der, Is pointed out. It would mean closer co-operation with American officers in stopping the wholesale traffic in ammu- milton, cattle smuggling, gun running and all of the other violations of the laws along this border.
 NOT UNOPPOSED
 The anti-German movement is not un- opposed in the north, as the German res idents of Chihuahua City, Torreon and other places have been spending money lavishly entertaining officials, army off cials and influential citizens. But with the usual German method, they seem to have overplayed their hand and brought about a reaction by causing the natur-
