'FRFNCn STRIKE GERMANS HEAVY
 BLOW ON LEF1 Halt of Prussians Gives AL lies Time to Establish
 Strong Positions. HOLDING HEIGHT
 OF CROIX REGARD In Endeayor to Create Diversion. Ger. mans Launch Attack Near Villers Cotterets, But Fail to Improve
 Situation.

With the French Army in France June 13, at Noon.-(By the Associat- ed Press. .)-The Germans have not recovered from the severe blow they received on the French left flank where turnout the night and this morning the battle quieted down, giv- ing the allies full opportunity to es- tablish themselves strongly. Father on the east, toward the center of the lines, the French took the initiative delivering number of small and sue cessful counter attacks. As a conse- quence the village of Melicocq, and the important height of Croix Ricard were taken.
 The allies have occupied and arc engaged in clearing the village and picking up prisoners hidden in cellars and dugouts, whc are being sent to the rear.
 Probably for the purpose of mak- ing the allies move their reserves to- ward the right flank, the Germans started big diversion in the vicinity of the forest of Villers Cotterets. The enemy progressed slightly, obtaining a foothold in Cceuvres, but this did not, improve his positions.
 Five German divisions participated two of which just reached the battle field. The work extended along a front of about four miles, but met such opposition from the French who fought with stern determination. that the Germans renounced their efforts

Hun Counter Attack Stopped

Paris, June 13.-A concentrated fire from the French guns caught powerful German forces attempting a' counter attack between Courcelles and Mery, and not only drove back the advancing waves but inflicted very heavy losses, according to the war office announcement tonight. The Germans gained a footing in the village of Laversine but other at tempts in this region failed.

Known Educators.

we'll occurred at $40 o'clock wednes-

accident he was taken to Stormont
hospital, where he remained for five

home. where he has been under the

German Colonial Rule Marked
5-e, by Massacres.
Whole Tribes Were Practically
Annihilated.
KILLED OFF WOMEN and BABES
Many of Facts Are Unfit for
Publication.
Official Report Is Backed by
Absolute Proof.

London. Sept IA report con-
tanning evidences of the brutal meth
DDS employed by Germany in the adj
ministration of her colonies In africa,
made public today by Edmond II. L.
Georges, acting secretary of the in
terror of the Union of South Africa,
constitutes the British governments
reply to DIR. w. S. Solf, the German
secretary of state for the colonies that
Germany would demand the return OF
her colonies at the peace conference.
Based on Reliable Evidence.
The report is one of the most SEN
sational ever issued in connection with
German colonial methods and is con-
sidered an Indictment of German fit
ness to rule the black native of Africa.
The evidence on which the report Is
based was taken from official German
documents at Windhoek from sworn
statements by native chiefs and by
Europeans familiar with the country
and from the writings of Governor
Leutwein, who held from 1884, TO
1905; DR.. Paul Rohrback, DIR. Kari
Dove and others. Altogether the re-
port refutes in detail Doctor Solf's
claim that "Germany's pre-war hui
name treatment of the native races
won her the moral right to be colo
NAL power" In view of this claim
the following statement by Acting Sec
rotary Georges is interesting:
Natives Object Violently.
The native opinion here is unani-
mously against any fdea of their ever
being handed back to the tender mer-
Giles of Germany. Any suggestion OF
the possibility of an act of this kind
on the part of Great Britain produces
the utmost CONSERVATION"
The report shows that the first
twenty-five years of German rule In
southwest Africa was an unbroken
record of official bad, faith, private
oppression. cruelty barbarities and
robberies. eliminating in the Herero
and Hottentot rebellions. During the
first seventeen years there was no law
for the natives. Such protection as
the law eventually provided, indicated
Considerations of humanity. but the
order to exploit the natives DIS labor
ers remained.
More Scraps of Paper.
When the Germans first arrived,
said the report. they entered into an
agreement with the native chiefs. but
these became scraps of paper and the
natives were fraudulently deprived of
their best land. Traders and settlers
robbed them of their cattle which
was their only wealth and the law
subsequently prevented the natives
from possessing large herds Of stock.
The natives were thus driven to work
at ridiculously inadequate wages and
often never were paid.
Women Outraged
They were treated like slaves and
their women folk were habituaIly
maltreated by the Germans who took
