DEFEAT TEUTONS
Desperate Attack To Recover
Belgian Position Fails.
"COmpletely Repulsed." Is Gen.
Haig's Report to London.

London, Nov. 14.-Crown Prince
Rupprecht vainly attempted to carry
out Hindenburg's orders to retake
Passchendaele or break the British
grip on the Passchendaele ridge yes
terday.
Field Marshal Haig today reported
following increased enemy artillery

afternoon and were completely re-
pulsed"
He located the German thrust as
north of Passchendaele."
This counter attack is the first of
any considerable strength which the
Germans have launched since Haig 5
two successful drives last week.
From documents captured on Ger
man prisoners, it is known that Field
Marshal Hindenberg has issued orders
that Passchendaele must be retaken
at all costs"

French Premier and Cabinet
Find Plan Not Popular.
So They Resign En- Masse; Hot
on Lloyd Georges Trail.
WILL ADDRESS COMMONS
Fear Politics Would Sway Such
Centralized War Power.
NOrthcliffe Press Attacks Pre-
mier for His Paris Speech.

London, Nov. 14.-One premier out
and another under strong fire were to-
days results in the effort to consoIi-
date all allies power, military and po-
htical, under one supreme inter-allied
council
Resignation of Premier Painleve
and his cabinet at Paris was regard ed
as directly expressive of the French
chamber of deputies opposition to such
a plan altho the vote was not specifi-
cally for or against the plan itself.
In London the press and public con-
tinued its onslaught on the scheme,
the fear being expressed that under it
civilians might replace military men
as strategists.
Socialists Withhold Vote.
Painleves resignation and those of
his colleagues came after Socialists
had Withheld their vote from a motion
to support the government. The mo-
ton itself was passed but the major
ity was so scant that, coupled with the
strength of the non-voting Socialists,
it was patent the ministry could not
command a full majority of members.
The vote came at the conclusion OF
a spirited debate in inter-alied war
council, during which it was char
acterized as "a mere secretarial bu-
reau.''
Painleve's explanation of the pur-
poses of the new scheme of unifica-
ton failed to appease the deputies
Other purely domestic questions, re-
Iating to opening up of recent scandals
was involved in the chambers antag-
onism to the ministry.
PainIeve Explains Council.
PainIeve's speech gave this epitome
of the war council:
Its object is not to direct the de-
tails of military operations, but to de-
fine the general war policy and the
general plans OF the allies, ada4's1
them to resources and means at hand
and in order to insure the strongest
possible results. 1t rests upon an in
ter-aIlied permanent staff which
forms at the same time its central or
gan of information and its technica
adviser. We have already heard the
objection that it is a united command

Topeka since the war began.

MILK GOING Up?
Shawnee County Dairymen Or
ganizing an Association. -
Many Quit Because of High
Cost of Feed.

Ihe price of milk may be raised this
winter, according to Ira Romig, pres
ident of the Shawnee County Dairy
mems association, which is now being
organized in the county. The price
to which it win rise II not been dis
cussed by the dairymen who are just
forming an association.
AS yet the shortage of milk has only
been a rumor. There has been no
real shortage yet. But according to
ROmig there may be this winter if
dairies continue to close up. In the
last three months two of the best
dairies in the county have shut down.
stating that the exorbitant price of
feed has cut profits to nearly nothing.
Early in September the Fairlea
dairy went out of business. This dairy
according to Ira Romig was one of the
best in the county, according to tests
made by Annette Nicoll, sanitary in
spector. The dairy used 20 cows and
was one of the most popular in the
city.
Another Is to Quit
The F. B. Fritts & Son dairy, on
West Tenth street. another large and
popular dairy will quit business be-
fore December the first, according to
both Miss Nicoll and Ira Romig.
This makes two first class dairies
that have gone out of business in the
last three months. There is a prob
ability that several more of the larger
ones as well as many of the smaller
dealers will quit by the first of the
year.
The price of feed is exorbitant and
nearly prohibitive Romig said this
afternoon. Alfalfa hay is now selling
for $25 and $26 a ton, bran for 50 per
hundred pounds and corn chops at 50
per hundred pounds. Prepared food
has long been out of use in the coun-
ty, Romig declared Prices have
scared on prepared foods so high that
even the largest concerns are worry
ing now
