tiINDENBURG LINE SMASH CONTINUES
 BRITISH ADVANCES

BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE, Nov. 30
 American engineers of the first American troops engag ed in military operations the British front took prom nen part and are still employed in breaking the Hnden burg line. The Americans pushed the vital railways be- hind the advancing line of Britons and locomotives and ears loaded with supplies and guns were less than quar- ter of mile behind the first advance line The Ameri worked with such rapdity and feassness that the British were encouraged and kept pushing against the Germans to keep the Yankee forces busy and brave in their great work The British officers and men have
 the highest praise for the speed and ability of the Amer cans who have set an example to Entente Engineers and railroad builders.
 Two American laborers were wounded during the three days drive hit by parts of shells breaking behind the British lines
 The American forces worked in twenty four hour shifts ayng tracks faster than laid before in this region Once German shells destroyed three miles of track the Americans had just laid Scarcely had this bOmbardment ceased before the rails crept forward again.

CHANCELLOR GIVES
 WAR REVIEW AND
 MAKES A FORECAST

BERLIN. Nov. 3O-The new Geman Chancellor, Count von Hertg appeared before the Rechstag today and reviewed the war from it's start and made his fore east The Chaucelors speech lengthy one and the following are several of the principal points that he made:
 The submarine warfare will reach the goal intended TOT it. The ships sunk will exceed those the Allies are now constructing;
 Germany is ready to negotiate peace when Russia sends representatives to Berlin
 The british are far from reaching the Flemish coast to destroy the submarine bases
 Political ref --- promised but the fundamental principles of the Imperial constitution shall be urged
 The Chancellor stated that the Teuton advance in Ita- y held the world in suspense and Italy has already lost considerable part of her forces and over half of her war material
 Germany must have the watch word of wait, endure, hold out and the German people will triumph in the end
 Nothing was said in the speech regarding peace with the othernkoos at war with the exception of Russia and the Socialists while pleased in the main with the ChanceI- Iors clever handling of information and his predictions, declare that he probably is only gurehead like Michael is only von Herng has more force and speaks from his own mind instead of the Kasers

FATHER OF U.. s. NAVY
 IS DEAD

CONCORD, N. r., Nov. 3O.-Wjl- liam Eaton Chandler Secretary of the Navy in Arthm's cabinet, and largely responsible for the beginning of the present navy, died at his home here this afternoon.
 In a lifetime of endless political activity and almost continuous con troversy, the one title freely accorded by men of all parties to William Ea- ton Chandler was that of Father of the United States Navy As Secre- tary of the navy under President Ar thur, Mir. Chandler, on June II, 1883, approved the plan for the reorgani- zation of the navy which resulted in the development of the present fight ing fleet.
 Born at Concord, N. H., Dec 2S, 1885. Mir. Chandler was educated at academies in New Hampshire and Vermont and was graduated from the Harvard Law School at the age of 19. One of his classmates at the law school was Joseph H. Choate. He entered politics at once, served three terms in the New Hampshire House of Representatives and was elected Speaker of the House when but 27 years old. His first entrance into na- tional political affairs was as one of the founders of the Republican party and a supporter of Abraham Lincoln
 While Secretary of the Navy, MT. Chandler organized the expedition which, under the command of Captain Winfield S. Schley, went to the relief of the Greedy Arctic exploration party.
 Fourteen years of service in the United States Senate ended when Mir. Chandler was defeated for renomina- ton in 1901 by Henry E. Burnham. His radical views on railroad legisia- ton, which brought him in opposition to Republican party leaders, were re- sponsible for this defeat. During the remainder of his life, Mir. Chandler made many attacks on what he con- sidered the undue influence eXerted by railroads in New England politics, His last federal position was that of President of the Spanish War Claims Commission, to whir 70 was named by President Nick. y u 2o1 and reappointed by Presi.. E'a.cye...
 Mir. Chandler's legal taleL .a is- played when, as chief counsel, he car ried through many stages in state and federal courts the suits in which it was sought to break the will of Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy, founder of the Christian Science Church.

WAIT FVDTPE HOLD O ARE THE INSTRUCTIONS TO THE GERMANS
FOUR MEN ARE
 OUT SEARCHING
 FOR BARRACOUTA

Somewhere down the bay or on the outside four men are today searching for the barge Bauacouta and the 8 men aboard. In the teeth of the storm last Wednesday afternoon, Captain II. V. Hopkins, in the staunch launch, Jennie C., set out on his res cue work accompanied by F. Gillis, Billy Chistiansen and Pete Dovolos- ky. The four men are seasoned to all kinds of climatic conditions and have fears for nothing. If the Baracouta is wrecked, or still adrift, the search CTS will find her and bring back the three men and possibly the craft which tore from her anchorage earl fer in the week. Sherman Haynes, owner of the Jennie C., stated today that he expected the launch back late this afternoon as he and others do not believe that the Baracouta drifted out into the sea. There are supplies aboard the launch for a week or ten days and if the barge did get to the outside, the searching party can con time its work for some time.
 The freighter Ketchillin was sup posed to be off Seal Rocks this fore noon and information was received here from Valdez that the Captain was to keep a lookout for the missing barge.
