HALF OF l'-90AT
FLEET DESTROYED
Britl5h Sinking Submarines
FaSor Than Ever.

London, Nov. 2.-England has sunk
nearly half OF Germany's submarine
feet during the war and is now sink,
ing them st a faster rate than ever
before, Sir Edward Geddes told the
house Of commons in his maiden
speech as first admiralty lord.
Notwithstanding this feet, he said,
Germany is likewise Speeding up on
the building Of submers.b e..
Sir Erics facts were the first reveal,
tion showing the success of England's
war of determination AGAINST the sub
marine. England has heretofore Kept
strictly silent on how many subma-
rines have been bagGcd.
Geddes announced sweeping changes
in the admiralty, tending to divorce
naval experts from purely admin stra-
tive details, so that they can cOncen
trate on naval problems. He announc
ed that it had been decided to con-
struct four new national shsDbutlding
yards to sreed up construction OF
merchantmen.
The It-t lord said he was "sati fed
the disposition Of forces was the best
possible" in referring to the convoy
plan for merchantmen.
Defending the lack of cooperation
by the British navy with the Russian
Baltic Sea feet in the Gulf of Riga
against the German fleet, the speaker
declared responsible naval opinion had
been against that step on account of
the mines W ich would be encounter
ed, as well SIS the long time necessary
for such a voyage.

FIRST AMERICANS

Men Who Fave Been Holding
Sector he!ieyei.

With the American Army in France,
Nov. 2.-The first battalions Of Amer
leans in the trenches have been re-
lieved by others.
Relief, which is considered one OF
the critical periods, when the enemy,
by Smelling the approaches to the po-
sitions, moy infict heavy damage, was
accomplished successfully. Apparent
ly, the enemy was not aware OF what
was going on.
With the men back in billets, it now
is permitted to mention for the frst
time that the casualties were negli-
bic. In fact, more men are suffering
with trench feet" than with wounds.
From military standpoint, the ex-
perience gained by the Americans Is
considered of very high value in the
training of contingents which are yet
to arrive on French soil. 1t was a
tired, dirty, wet, mud-caked body OF
men that returned to billets. The men
had only two clear days while in the
trenches. They were mud from their
hats to their shoes. Before anything
else they required a bath, first with
gasoline and then with water.
The sun was shining brightly and
the returned soldiers spent most OF
the time summing themselves and their
belongings. Some of the fields in this
section of France are covered with
blankets, parts of uniforms and equip
ment Clouds Of red dust arose In
fhpca p1nnnc whom later tha owners
started to brush. BY night the return
ed battalions were clean and ready to
20 back again.

His reinstatement was made by the
FIVE county judges, acting upcn a pc
titicn from scores of lawyers.
Butkiewicz recently won the Croix
de Guerre, and official news of his
decoration came by letter. 1t was
this newly won honor that opened the
hearts of his lawyer friends in for
giveness for his missteps at the bar
At one time Butkiewicz was one of
the most prominent young men at the
county bar. Following a term as as
sistant district attorney, he became a
candidate for judge, and came near
winning. Later he was accused Of
having misappropriated funds of a few
clients. For this alleged offense he
was called to trial by the Bar asso-
station and disbarred.
