THE FRENCH "AVlSO"

The organization of the numerous and coastal conveys coincided with the appearance in French waters of large number of motor driven sub marine chasers, built in the United States for the French navy These vessels embody all the desired characteristics of high speed and seagoing qualities and they have proved idea 'vedettes de patrouies' for the coastal work which they employed
 Mention should also be made of another type of submarine craft which in it's design and con- structon is wholly Ciallc. This is the "aviso,' the which has it's counterpart in the British sloop In the "aviso, the French naval constructors have de- veloped 8 motor driven, going cruiser. which exceptionally well embodes all the characterstics considered essential to offensive ant-U-boat opera. tons, namely, high speed, heavy armament, high free-board. excellent keeping qualities and maximum steaming radius.
 The machinery of the "avisos" may be said to be product of the war, and it is mainly due to it's celence that these vessels have proved satisfac tory under all conditions of service.-Scientifc American.

PARIS, Sept. 7.-French troops today penetrated from four to five miles on the Somme front, accord ing to the war office announcement tonight. They crossed the St. Quentin canal at Togny bridge and station, capturing both places.
 Progress to the north of Naux- allon was made and Celle- Sur Aisne was captured.
 The French hold the general line from the western outskirts of Vaux, Fluquieres, Happencourt, the east at Tugny bridge and St. Simon, Averne, the western edge of Jussy, the railway from Ham to Tergnier, Amigny- -Rouy and Ba- risis.
 The text of the statement reads:
 During the course of the day the advance of our troops reached a depth of from seven to eight kilometers on the Somme front. The enemy, whose resistance had greatly increased, was not able to oppose our passage of the St. Quentin canal, which our troops crossed at Pont- de -Tugny and St. Simon after violent engagement. Both these places are in our pos session.
 To the north and south we hold the general line from the western outskirts of Naux, Fluquieres, Happencourt, east of Pont-de- Tugny and St. Simon, Avesne, western outskirts of Jussy, the railway from Ham to Tergnier, Amigny- -Rouy and Barisis. The enemy left everywhere in our hands very important supplies.
 "On the Ailette front and be- tween the Ailette and the Aisne there is little change. We have advanced north of Vauxaillon and occupied Celle -Sur-Aisne. We re- pulsed two violent counter attacks south of Moulin Laffaux.
 ''On the whole of this part of the front, as we'll as north of the Vesle river, the enemy reacted violently with his artillery

CHICAGO, Sept. 7.-Chicago paid S10o,i63 to see the first three games of the worlds series, according to fig ures compiled tonight. The total at tendance for the three games was 6S.- s6s, today's crowd of 27,O54 being the largest.
 Warm weather and a bright sun, to- gether with half holiday in virtually all lines of business, swelled the crowd to nearly capacity proportions. The fact that the contest was the last major league game to be played in Chi cago until the war is won also had an appeal.
 Ticket scalpers reaped a harvest to- day for the first time during the ser ies. The reserved seats were snapped up before noon and when the crowd stormed the park, half an hour before the start of the game, the scaIpers got as high as 8 for ticket costing s1.50

Manufacture of
 Near Beer Wil
 Also Now Cease

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-Manu- lecturers of near beers and other substitutes it was officially explain ed, are affected by the decision to cut off brewing of beer. Millions of dollars have been invested in the business.
 One of the largest breweries in the country recently erected an ad- ditionaI million dollar plant solely for the brewing of this beverage.
 The principal uses breweries can be converted to are the manufacture of ice, cold storage, making of yeast for baking, rolling barley and grind ing grains for mill feed. All these purposes would likely be considered essential to the war or civil popula- ton.
 Manufacture of all other bever- ages of the so-caIled "Soft' variety, some months ago was curtaiied 50 per cent by the food administration as sugar conservation measure. Further curtailment of the manufac- ture of such beverages and mineral waters are under consideration and may take the form of further re- ducing supplies of sugar, fuel, ma teriaIs for containers and food pro- ducts and limiting transportation facilities.

AMERICANS KEEP UP HOLD 0N A|SNE BANK

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON THE AISNE FRONT. Sept 7.-(By The Associated Press)..The attempt of the Germans to retain their foot hold on the southside of the Aisne canal in a wood to the west of Villers En -Prayeres was nullified by a small but brilliant operation early this morn ing. The dense little wood had been packed with machine guns. under cov- CT of the German guns.
 The only break in the American line along the canal was at that place. The task of cleaning it out began at 1 o'clock in the morning and was com- pleted before 10. There was no op- portunity to take prisoners, but the toll of German dead was great as com pared with the magnitude of the en- gagement.
 Meet Heavy Resistance Along the line to the junction with the French. heavy resistance continues and indications are increasing that the Germans do not propose to be hurried in their retreat in this district north west of Reims. The artillery on both sides was in violent action, but with the exception of patrolling there was no effort at infantry work.
 The general line held by the Amer jeans has not changed. From one place the Americans brought in 5f lsprisoners, members of one of the Guards divisions Among them were two officers, one of whom is Lieuten- ant Gaspard Alversleben, whose father is reputed to be one of the emperor's advisers. It was this lieutenant wht commanded the detachment that re- gently compelled a small American force to eyacuate Fismette. It was tht organization to which that force be. longed that captured him. The cap ture of the wood hear the canal wa. accomplished after intensive artiller, preparation and in the face of l; smothering fire. The Americans crep close in during the darkness ant rushed the woods about 5 o'clock From the woods enough machine gul nests were left to give sharp greet ing but the real line of bursts wa from beyond the canal. But this wa met with a strong American counte fire.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 7.-Under new policy of reporting casualties in the American expeditionary forces adopted by the war department, the names of the men wounded will be sent to the United States by courier twice a week and only the names of the dead and missing will be cabled by General Pershing when the system is fully in effect.
 In making this announcement Gen. eral March, chief of staff, said Gen. eral Pershing had not heretofore sent in the names of men slightly wounded because generally the men are returned to duty before the names reached the United States. In reply to an inquiry from the department General Pershing had reported, General March said, that there were 10000 such casualties up to August 20.
 Under the new plan the names of all the wounded will be sent to the United States by courier, together with their hospital records, SO that a statement of the diagnosis can be furnished to relatives of the men.
 There has been some discussion in the United States about our casualty lists," said General March, "and the war department has been trying to get in touch with the exact condition of casualties in France because we have | heard from number of sources ol | relatives at home receiving the infor- nation direct from. their people ir France of men being wounded when the war department had not notified the relatives at home. At an early stage in the reporting of casualty lists General Pershing asked for authority not to report slight casualties, be cause the men would be back on thu firing line before the report. after in. vestigation, could reach the United States. It was thought then that i would simplify matters and proven needless worry to relatives if that sys tenn were adopted.
 "Of course, it is very well under stood that the opinion of man wh, has been wounded may differ material ly from the opinion of the doctors a to it's severity, and undoubtedly grea many men have written home. tellin about wounds that the doctors ha, pronounced slight, and which Pershin had listed as not being severe. whel the letters might indicate to the peo pie at home that they were severe So I have gotten report from Genera Pershing as to the number of thos casualties. in addition to those whic he has published, so as to be able give the facts to the American people I am giving the facts to the peopl because know they will face any cas ualty list with determination and cour age whatever it is.
