Attackers Claim to Have Taken

clare German Attacks Gained Little.

In what appears TO have been
the most important offensive
movement undertaken on the
F,ranco-Belgian front in several
weeks, French trenches near Ver-
dun were stormed by German
troops yesterday. A counter at
tack delivered at night by the
French failed to drive out the Ger
mans, who during the operations
captured about 500 prisoners and
ten machine guns.
The Paris account OF tho Ger
man offensive reports that it was
launched along rather long front,
between Avocourt wood, on the ex-
treme left OF the French lines
about verdun, and Dead Man Hill,
a distance of more than three and
one half miles. The attacks were
repulsed, the French statement de-
clares, except that the Germans
penetrated advance trenches near
Hill 304. The German statement
mentions other attacks as ENTER
prises on Dead Man Hill and
northwest Of Avocourt - which
brought the desired result"
Fighting in the Riga region. the
northernmost sector Of the Russian
front, continues to show advance
for the Germans, according to Ber-
lin, which claims the capture Of
Russian positions on both sides Of
the river IA, near Riga
The fighting in this marshy re-
gion is made possible at this sea-
son by reason Of the freezing Of the
soft ground. The Germans now
apparently have not only regained
such ground as they lost but are
striking northward in the direction

via have failed, Berlin says. as did

According to reports received dur
ing the past week from different sec
lions of the state the sheep losses
are heavier than ever before expert
enced by the wool growers, says the
Kemmerer Republican.
At all the unloading stations be-
tween Opal and Cokeville fresh sheep
hides and carcasses are much in evil
dence. At Cokeville one rancher on
ly is said to have lost thousands of
dollars worth OF sheep during the
past week. The sheep we're shipped
to Cokeville for Landing, but were
in such weak condition that many OF
them died on the cars; at the stock
yards and in the fields near the
yards. Dead sheep are to be seen
everywhere and the sight is most
pitiful.
From Sage, Opal and Fossil come
the same reports, although the losses
are not reported as great az at Coke
Vile. Numerous reasons are given
