ant OF the Sixth naval district.
II the gas attack was deliberate, as

new and ingenious form of "frightful-
ness and, SO far as has been reported,
was the first direct effort of the Ger
man raiders to harm persons or prop
erty on American shores
Sinking of the British steamer Pen
istrone, of 4,lS9 gross tons, and the
Swedish steamer Sydland, of 3O31
gross tons, in New England waters

ported to the Navy Department.
The number of fishing vessels de-
stroyed by German submarine in its
raid on the fleet off Georges banks
last Saturday night was nearer
score than the ten already reported.

tie town OF 3ray.sur-Somme. on the
northern bank of the Somme. A short
distance across the river to the south
the British have taken Proyart and
midway of the line have pressed on to
the east OF Fourquescourt In a man
euver which has resulted in the fur
ther outflanking of Chaulnes from the
south and of Roye from the north.
On their part, the French in the
rolling country Immediately north OF
tho Oise river have captured Curry, a |
position Of great strategic value. ly-
ing southwest of Lassigny. and at sew
eral other points southwark TO the re-
sion OF the Disc have advanced their
line further toward Noyon. ,
In Mondays fighting hundreds Of
additional Germans were made pris. .
nler and the enemy also lost heavily
in men killed or wounded. Unofficial
reports give the number OF Germans
captured during the present offensive .
as in the neishborhood Of 10000. and
700 guns.
The Germans at last accounts were
throwing reinforcements to the east 3
OF the road running through Chaulnos, I
Roye and Noyon. the passage OF which ,

TO PROTEST
 RETURN OF GERMAN COLONIES

Melbourne, Nov. 1.-The Australian senate today passed the resolution moved by the ministry last week pro- viding that it is essential to the fu- ture welfare of Australia that the captured German possessions in the Pacific now occupied by Australian and New Zealand troops should not in any circumstances be restored to Ger many The resolution also provided that in the consideration and deter niinadon of any proposals affecting the destiny of these islands Australia should be consulted.
 Acting Prime Minister Watt in sup porting the resolution said Australia did not enter the war for plunder and did not seek the islands because. of their wealth. He added that ne could say unhesitatingly that any proposal to restore the islands to Germany would be dangerous. New Zealand, he said, stood squarely with Australia in this matter. Mir. Watt declared that international control of insu1ar posses sions never had been success.
