advance line of defense between the
Bapaume-C Cambria road and Arras.
British forces vaptured the villages
of Atilly and Villecholes, respectively
southeast and northeast of the village
of Vermand, and the towns of Lon
gate and Doignies.
They also took CroisilIes after des-
perate deefnse by the Germans, Reu-
ter'S correspondent at British head
quarters reports.
The fighting in the vicinity of Savy
was very determined and the German
casualties were found to have been far
heavier than was supposed at first
The Germans lost several hundred
men, including 81 who were taken pris-
Oner.
Berlin, April 3.--The British forces,
an official announcement says, suffered

In seconding the nomination of Mann.

In seconding the nomination of Mann,
said:
II cannot let the statements Of the
gentleman from Minnesota and the in
ferences they make go unchallenged.
He takes the position that patriotism
demands that the organization of this
house be turned over to the Democrats.
Patriotism demands that the Demo-
Gratis ought TO submit TO a Republican
organization of the house."
Shouts of NO" from the Democratic
side interrupted him.
When he resumed 1t was TO promise
that there will be no partisanship in
the house." so far as the Republicans
were concerned
What we need in this hour is a
united country" he said. "We need
the wisdom, the advice and the assjs-
lance of every American. This is no
time to criticize the president, but II
would be far better for the country If
the president was compelled to consult
Republicans as well as Democrats in
this crisis"
Representative Lee of Georgia.
Democrat, who had been seriously i'll,
was brought into the house amid the
applause of his colleagues on the
Democratic side He cast his vote
for Clark for speaker.
Mr.. Lee was among those absent
when the roll was called to determine
a quorum. He showed plainly the eff
fects of his Illness when assisted TO
the floor by two attendants. Up until
the last moment 1t was not thought he
could be present. His presence, and
the fact that four of the five indie
pendents who voted in the early stages
of the roll call cast half their ballots
for Speaker Clark made the Missou-
rian's election certainty long before
the roll call was completed.
