LENS CAPTURED
BY THE BRITISH?
Civil Population Removed From
City by Germans.
WILD SCENES ARE REPORTED
Prisoners Declare Teutons Made Fran
tic Efforts to Take Away Stores
and Guns Before Enemy
Arrived.

London, April 17-IndicatiOns of a
possible retirement of the Germans in
Belgium are given in the Belgian Off
cial report, which says the second
German line of intrenchments near
Dixmude We're entered and found I'M
occupied.
Apparently the city of Lens. the
great coal center of northern France,
has fallen before the British drive.
The British official report on Sunday
night speaks only of progress least of
LEVIN, where our troops are approach
ing the outskirts of Lens" but the cor
respondent of Lloyd's News with the
patrols entered the city early Sunday
morning.
The Germans ordered the civil pop
ulation from the town on Friday pre-
paratOry to their own departure, and
seized three months provisions accu-
muIated in Lens by the American relief
commission.
The Germans let loose against the
British wedge threatening the southern
hinge of the line the most powerful
blow they have delivered since the be-
ginning of their withdrawal.
Along q SiX-mile front on both sides
of the Bapaume-C ambrai highroad the
enemy launched succession of heavy
infantry attacks. They penetrated
I.agnicourt. which is the center Of the
British front General Haig's men rail-
lied, however, and drove the enemy
out capturing 800 prisoners. The
British line now stands where it did
before, and 1900 German dead have
been counted.
The German thrust failed also to
check British progress at st. Quentin,
where ground was gained east and
north of Gricourt, 40 miles from
Lens.
With the capture of Lens the
French will be in position once more
to meet their coal shortage, which, to
an extent, has interfered with the
manufacture of munitions.
Prisoners seized in the fighting
about Lens declare that there was
wild confusion in the town while the
main body of Germans was retreating.
Squads dragging guns and stores were
met by squads ordered to blow up the
roads to prevent the British advance
beyond the city.
Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig's
principal object in his advance on
Lens is rather to tIrn La Bassee
from the south. La Bassee and Lens
forming the principal outworks of Lille,
which is the key to the wp'le German
position in Flanders, anu once these
two towns are in the hands of the Brit
ish, Lille will be seriously threatened.

VOLUNTEERS ARE WANTED
BY THE UNITED STATES
All Recruits Will Be Released After
the War-Test by the Gov
eminent.

Washington, April 14-The war de-
partment prepared TO issue instruc-
tons to recruiting officers which will
be in effect cell for 100000 volun-
teers to fill up the regular army and
the existing units of the National
Guard. All recruits enlisted since the
declaration of war and those to be en-
listed henceforth will be notified that
they will be discharged at the close of
the war, putting them in the status of
wartime volunteers
Four thousand three hundred and
fifty-five men already have been en-
rolled in such a status This is the
number of recruits since the passage
of the war resolution.
Analysis of the pending administra-
ton bill as it affects the regular army
and the National Guard shows that
provision is made for the absorption
of 517,S6S volunteers. OF these 161,519
will be needed TO fill up the regular
army and 206349 for the National
Guard. AS 10000 men must be with
drawn from these two services within
six months to train the first 100000
increment of the selective conscript
army. their places must be taken by
that number of additional volunteers.
BY this plan it is thought the feast
bility of depending entirely upon vol
unteers will be determined. Army Off
GERS are certain that it will show con-
gress where there are some doubts of
the selective conscript plan, that
consumption is necessary to maintain
an army adequate to meet the present
situation
