MINE CARRIAGE IN
 NORTH SEA NOW
 IS COMPLETED
Agreement to Lay Oil Pipe Line Across Scotland and Other Important Things Has Been Entered Into
CRy Review Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21-Construc tion of the North Sea mine barrage against submarines, agreement to lay oil pipe line across Scotland, estab- lishment of naval aviation stations from the Spanish border to the Eng fish channel, and other details of the work of the American Navy in foreign waters were given to the public today by Assistant Secretary Roosevelt, who recently returned from visit to Europe.
 ''The American people seem to have little idea of the extent of our naval activities abroad" said Secretary Roosevelt. 'The tendency is to think merely of the conveying and patrol work our destroyers and other vessels are doing and the presence of our battlefships with. the British fleet. But important as this is it is only part of our activities and there are dozens of other things of importance of which little has been said"
 The building of the Northern mine barrage was one of the biggest things ever accomplished in ordnance work, Mir. Roosevelt said. In turning out material for it, a number of plants in this country were kept busy for months. Several American bases were established on the British coast to lay and handle the mines.
 IT., l,o,, Nf oil tho Ar,aariaon n navy has undertaken to construct a pipe line across Scotland.
 "All the way from the Spanish bor- der clear around to the English chan nel,' said Mir. Roosevelt, i've have established aviation stations so spaced that the entire coast line is covered by seaplanes and dirigibles.
 "These stations were built almost entirely by our sailors. We hape to extend this patrol zone to hundred miles,"
 An American naval force co-operat- ing with the British at Gibraltar is pa- trolling the Atlantic in that vicinity and is acting as convoy to vessels going to and from Italy, Greece and Egypt
 Each naval base has its hospital. Secretary Roosevelt said, and in Scot land an entire watering place has been taken over by the Americans for use as a hospital.
 Conditions have vastly improved from what they were last year" said the secretary, in referring to the sub marine menace. but We cannot afofrd to let up in our activities for single second"

GREAT BATTLE
 IN IFS SECOND
 PHASE, REPORT
First Phase Completed With Elimination of Lille Salient; Valenciennes Key Position for Future Action
WITH THE ALLIED ARMIES IN

WITH THE ALLIED ARMIES IN FRANCE AND BELGIUM, Oct. 21, 4 D. m-(By the Associated Press.)- The great battle in Flanders and northern France passed into it's sec ond phase today. The first phase was completed when the Lille salient WIS eliminated when the Germans were driven out of western Belgium so that the line all the way from the iron tire of Holland to the Disc canal is virtually a straight one.
 This having been accomplished, the Relgians, British and French in the north started sweeping movement today pivoting on a point about east of Courtrai The object of this ap- pears to be the clearing Of the enemy from his front in northern Belgium and at the same time to threaten his extreme right flank.
 The key position at the south is in the region below Valenciennes. At both places the exhausted German di- visions, whose ranks have had great holes chopped into them by terrific blows, are fighting with the greatest desperation. The German command CTS are sacrificing many men in their endeavor to hold their ground, but in both sectors the allied troops have smashed into the enemy and made ap- preciable gains. Scores of additional villages have been reclaimed and num- erous prisoners and large quantities of supplies have been captured.
 In the center of the battle area the British kept thrusting out everywhere and gradually during the day moved forward toward the west bank of the Scheldt with increasing cellerity. The Germans have taken advantage of the natural protection offered by the width of this tream and its canal and marshy borders. They are hiding be- hind it in shallow trenches and are showing nervousness as the allies ap- proach Back of them, their artillery, the strength of which has been great ly depleted, is giving some support.
 The Germans have their cannon close to the roads and on them, so that when it becomes necessary to withdraw the guns they can get away in a hurry. In their retreat the Ger mans have resorted to every known means to delay the bringing up of the artillery, but without effect. At the present time, however, the allies are not hampered in the least, for the Germans were put to such hurried flight that they had little time to take their artillery and vast stores of am intuition with them. These fell into the hands of allied troops, and the guns were promptly turned around and shels made in Germany were sent eastward as fast as they could be fired against their original owners. thus had a novel expert ence in serving artillery.

TREASURY OFFICIALS SAL THAT LITTLE DOUBT FOURTH ISSUE OF LIBERTY BONDS WAS OVER SUBSCRIBED BUT CANNOT GIVE DETAILS
TOO MUCH OPTIMISM
SOME CITIES WHICH AT FIRST REPORTED THEMSELVES OVER SUBSCRIBED NOW FIND THEY BARELY WENT OVER OFFICIAL MARK SET THE
CBy Review Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, Oct. q. - After reading a number of late reports on the outcome of the fourth Liberty loan campaign which closed Saturday, treasury officials declared tonight there is little certainty at this time either of the total volume of subscrip- tions or the number of subscribers They still felt no doubt that the loan had been over-subscribed but explain ed that many earlier messages appear. ed too optomistic. in the light of ac- tual figures nowSbeing compiled by every bank and local committee over the country.
 Some cities which at first reported they were heavily over-subscribed now discover that they barely went over their marks.
 There was good ground. however, for the estimate that 22,00O.OO0 or more individuals had subscribed to the greatest war loan ever floated by any government The fact that many of these represented lump subscriptions by corporations which later would re- sell bonds to their employees led to the belief that the number of actual bond holders would be considerably higher
 Owing to the present uncertainty the treasury expects to make no furth- CT announcement concerning the re suits of the loan until definite and official figures are received from each federal reserve bank. The first of these reports is hardly looked for be- fore next Monday, and the final con- pilations may be delayed for two weeks.
 A digest of reports indicates clear ly officials say. that the house to house canyassing methods, or the sys- tenn of having citizens call voluntarily at polling places. should be used much more extensively. in the fifth Liberty loan campaign, set for next spring.
 Stories of self sacrifice by indi- viduals and business interests of fine records of loan workers. of unceasing effort throughout the three weeks per iod, of clever methods and efficient salesmanship. of enthusiastic demon stration which stopped at neither moral discouragements nor physical handicaps from influenza illness are reaching the treasury in every mail.
 Words of thanks seem paltry in the face of the deeds being reported" said the officials.
 The navy subscribed more than S40,- 000.00O, said an announcement today by Rear Admiral Cowie. navy Liberty loan officer and this figure will be raised by later reports. The army also made a fine record, but the fig ures are yet incomplete. General Per shing cabled that up to October IA, members of the American expedition ary forces had subscribed S1,270,OO0 and that this probably would run to S2,000.00O or more.
 Officials and employees of 97 ship yards subscribed SS5. .3S6. 500. the ship ping board announced. If the other 106 yards maintain the same ratio. the grand total for the industry will be about S75.0OO.0O0, an average of more than $150 per man.

HARDEN STATES SURRENDER NOW

German Publicist Makes Char acteristic Bold Speech With out Interruption From the Police.

AMSTERDAM, Oct. 21 CBy the As. sociated Press) ).-"We are alone When fortress can no longer hold it is no dishonor if the commander surrenders. The kaiser must take up his cross of concluding quickly neces- sary peace and accepting whatever is hard. Let the kaiser declare himself ready and let him fit himself with new Germany as her first citizen"
 This utterance by MaXimilian liar den. addressed to several people in Berlin on Sunday was loudly applaud ed.
 Herr Harden, whose plain spoken language in Die Zukunft, of which he is editor has caused a suspension of that journal on several occasions, was permitted, according to the reports of his address, to speak freely and with out hindrance. His remarkable decla- ration respecting surrender and the '1Iaiser's cross." followed a review of the situation in which he pointed out that Bulgaria was occupied. Turkeys fate was sealed and Austria-Hungary was out of the fight.

Gaines Reports Surplus of Quarter Million Above AL lotment With All Parts of County Doing Duty

With total subscriptions of up- wards of S2,750,O00, and with every district in Cochise county well over the minimum allotment in the fourth Liberty loan," said Chairman Gaines yesterday, another call of the govern ment on the patriotism of the people of this part of the state has been answered with the same zeal that has characterized the efforts of the coun- ty in all war work. Handicapped by a decrease in the total of subscrip- tions from the big corporations, the residents of the county have rallied to the support of the government in this last call. It is anticipated that the number of personal subscriptions, especially of small subscriptions, in this drive will far outnumber those of the preceding campaigns"
 Total estimated subscriptions, total allotments for the districts of the county follow.

WHIMSICAL STYLES IN SLEEPING GARMENTS.

Having undertaken the wearing of
paJamas women proceeded to feminine
them. They have developed these SEN
sible sleeping garments into many
dainty conceptions of the original and
have produced, in the process, attrac-
tive new sleeping garments that are
neither pajamas nor nightgowns.
There are one-piece and two-piece pa
1amas, pajamas with slipover manda-
rim coats and others with short jackets
like that shown in the picture. Wash
satin, crepe de chine and georgette go
to make up these very modern concep-
tons of the originally plain and prac-
teal pajamas. They are called boudoir
paJamas; those with jackets or man.
DARN coats proving the most digniied
and becoming of the several designs.
Ii one determines upon silk for Sleep
Ing garments the soft texture of wash
satin and crepe de chine, and the sheer
ness of georgette along with their
dainty colorings, are sure to inspire
gay and frivolous affairs like that
shown in the picture. Nearly all the
boudoir pajamas, however, are less
fanciful than these which exaggerate
the style In order to call attention TO
1t. The p%antalettes are of plain satin
with crepe g%eorgette set in at the sides
between front and back pieces tied to-
gether with satin ribbon bows. The
short jacket of satin has sleeves of
plated g%eOrgette ending In a ruffie with
a ribbon band above it. The collar is

month in the year. Sometimes IL hap
pens that she must choose a new one
just between seasons, as in February
or January. Winter suits are offered
at bargain prices then, and early
spring styles have appeared, enticing-
ly new and tempting. The shopper is
torn between two minds, and no one
can settle the matter for her. 1t must
be decided by the climate she lives in,
the kind of service she requires of the
suit, becomingness of the styles and
other personal matters.
Winter and spring styles compare
notes in the two suits shown here. At
the left an advance model for spring
reveals a trim affair of dark-colored
cloth, with n plain skirt that does not
commit itself to the very narrow style
which has been considerably heralded.
The coat approves the conservation of
wool by being short, enforcing its
opinion especially in the back Of the
garment, which is shorter than the
front. This is a fine model for a slen-
der figure, with a yoke TO the Shout
ders and the front and back attached
to 1t, plated at the sides. The coat
sleeves broaden the figure by means
of a little fullness at the top. There
is a narrow belt and springtime
touches in light buttons, in an over
collar of white satin and insert of
white in the V-shaped cut-out on the
plain cuffs.
A suit of duvetyn at the right,
trimmed with chinchilla fur, com-

tinctive style. The skirt is as narrow
as 1t can be, conveniently; the coat
hangs as straight as a plumb-line, but
tempers its severe simplicity with
rounded points at the bottom. The
sleeves are allowed a little fullness at
the top and finished at the hand with
strap and button trimming. A mar
row belt of the cloth suggests the
waistline, and very large buttons fas-
ten the coat and are lined up on the
skirt In a way to emphasize the long,
straight line that will commend this
model to many women
