on his 10 yeard line. but managed to
recover the ball On his next try he
was smothered under pile OF Brown
rushers before he could get his punt
away. In the same quarter Pieri scored
at the end of long advance which car
ried the ball to Dartmouth's IS yard
line. At this point Pieri broke through
the middle Of the line, side stepping the
backs and shooting off for a touchdown,
although several tacklers touched him.
Browns Pretty Play.
In the final quarter Brown made It's
fourth touchdown on one of the prettiest
plays OF the game. With the ball on
Dartmouth's 80 yard line Holt. a Brown
substitute. threw q short pass to Capt.
Weeks. who was uncovered and who
raced nearly twenty-five yards to the
goal.
Dartmouth all through the game was
unable to sense the Providence attack,
the midfield defence being a little better,
however, than when the Brown players
had come UP the field. Threshe and
Bevan both played good football, but
had little support With the Brown
backs going at top speed all the time,

and Hoving stood out The lineup:

WITH THE ANGLO-AMER1CA
FORCES ON THE VALENCIENNES
FRONT, October 1.-THE British
again attacked southwest of Doual
this morning, stormed and took Bre-
bieres and passed through to the east
ward. They are now within slightly
more than a mile of Douai itself. A
stiff rear guard resistance by enemy
machine gunners is being overcome.
There was every evidence today that
the Germans were preparing to make
a strong stand on the ValenclenneS
line, which now has been reached, at
least east of the River Selle, by the
Anglo-American forces.
The Germans had to do quick work
in the preparation of the Valencien-
mes line, as it had not been finished
for them by the time they were forced
to move back to it. This line, which
it appears that the Germans intend
trying to hold, seems in general
way, according to the best evidence,
to run from Valenciennes to Vende-
gies, east of the river Escaillon, on
the high ground south Of Bermerain,
along the high ground between
Escarmain and Solesmes. along the
high ground east of the river .Selle.
east OF LIE Cateau 10 NlOflaiH, thence
east of Andigny. west OF Regn:court.
through the Piquerval wood and
thence possibly southeast to Vanden-
court, on the Disc.
It is obvious that this is only a tenn
porary line, for explosions are in
progress east Of it. 1t is known that
the military offices that were former
ly in LIE Cateau were moved to Maui
beuge and ChaIlevoi. and guns have
been seen moving back far to The
eastward. AS far back as The general
line at ValencienneS the roads have
been mined and the material moved
away, according to reliable infor,na-
tion.
The resistance of the enemy through
out the whole area north and south
of lie 'Cateau has Stiffened appre-
ciably and this morning he put down
thin but determined barrage over
the entire region.

increased today in the area north OF
the Cambrai-Le Cateau road. Never
theless the advance of the allied
troops continued here as well as to
the south of the road.
In Douai there have been several
fires. while in Denain and in the
southern and northern outskirts OF
Lille explosions and fires have been
observed. Villages to the northeast OF
Douai are burning, including Matt
aing, Marquette. Merchicourt and
Marco.
notwithstanding the Germans hav-
ing adopted a defensive line the at
tacks by the British and Americans
are continuing. 1t appears that. at
the best. this line can only be used
by the enemy as temporary stopping
place. Rather heavy fighting. how
ever, may be expected.
American and British troops cap
tured in the Bohain region what was
probably the largest enemy ammuni-
ton dump ever taken. The shells,
piled high. covered a large area This
capture will greatly reduce the guam
tity of ammunition available to tho
Germans on this section of the front
The evacuation of the city of Valen-
ciennes itself was started three weeks
ago. Prisoners captured today said
they had orders to hold on to the last
and to kill as many Britons and
Americans as possible.
1t is expected the German resistance
will continue and will grow more de-
termined until the first phase of the
withdrawal in the Douai sector Is
completed. There are indications that
the enemy also is contemplating with.
drawals on q larger scale elsewhere.
In addition to the. other destruction
reported toward the northerly end Of
the line the locks and bridges along
the Haute Deule canal have been
blown UP. A large quantity of motor
transports is moving from Lille.

THE FLANDERS FRONT, October u
(by the Associated Press).-The Ger
mans apparently are growing ex-

is indicated by the numbers Of low.

But the Germans, although they are

PRESIDENT IS TOLD
WHILE AT BENEFIT
Gets "UnofficiaI" German
Note at Metropolitan
Opera House.
IIr laNVCc Nh rnMMEN1
HE MAKES NO COMMENT

NEW YORK, October 12.-Seated to-
night in a grand tier box at the Met
ronolitan Opera House, President Will
son received from the Associated
Press the unofficial text of the most
momentous diplomatic note In the
history of the world. Through Secre-
tary Tumulty he announced that he
would have no comment to make.
Publication of Germany's reply to
the Presidents inquiries as to its
willingness to accept all the terms
he previously had enunciated'a to
evacuate all occupied territory came
as a complete surprise. The way In
which the wireless dispatch of such
tremendous. purport sent out from
the great German station at Nauen
was made public shattered all diplo-
matte precedents.
The text reached New York only a
short time before Mr.. WilsonIand his
party left the Waldorf-Astoria to at
tend the concert at the Metropolitan
for the benefit Of blinded Italian SOL
diers. The natural assumption was
that it previously had been communi-
Gated to the President. AS a measure
OF precaution, however, the Associated
Press sent over its special wire to the
opera house an inquiry to Secretary
TumuIty as to whether Mr.. Wilson
had been informed of the German reply.
President Had Not Seen Note.
Mr.. Tumulty showed plainly his
amazement and replied that Mr.. Will
son had not seen the note, and the
secretary requested that the text be
telegraphed to him at once. He an
nounced, however. that the President
could not indicate in the slightest de-
gree what his answer would be until
he had opportunity to study the Off
cial text.
The reply was sent Immediately to
the box where the President was seat
ed with Col. E. NJ House. his close
friend and trusted adviser. 1t was

People Are Assured There

BY N. o. MESSENGER.


The American people must not for
one moment be misled by the unof-
fetal text of the reputed German
peace offer into relaxing interest in
the liberty loan or other war measures,
and must not reach the conclusion that
the language of the offer means un-
conditional surrender of the central
powers
This was the most important sug-
gestion emanating from official sources
last night. It was stated that it could
not be emphasized too strongly.
1t was interpreted generally to mean
that the people may rest assured
there will be no cessation of military
operations on the same vigorous scale
of aggression that they have been
proceeding.
No Hating Of Hammer Blows.
In all the comment Of last night in
Washington one vibrant note dominated
every other thought. That was that the
must not be halted for moment until
an armistice should finally be agreed
upon. The public mind on that score
is apparently made up and the opinion
is unanimous.
It may also be said, with assurance
Of not making a misstatement, that the
general trend of public thought was one

President Wilson is not alone in his
general appraisal of the untrustworthi-
ness Of the German government when
it's own interests are in the balance.
The rank and file Of the people, it may
be said, think with him.
Trick Is Feared.
People, speaking generally. feared a
trick in the offer as announced. Read
ing the reported contents of the note
over and over served only to emphasize
its vagueneSS on points known to lie
at the very root of acceptance of the
overtures for peace.
The unusual manner in which the
note became pubic WAS not over
looked, either. in the growing atti-
tude of suspicion of its good faith
which seemed to generally obtain.
Speculation was aroused by the de-
scription of the government" in
whose name it was offered. as to what
may have happened in Germany in the
past few days. The kaiser's name did

Does Not Mean End of War.
Without any attempt to discount
what appeared to be, at a casual
reading. an acceptance of the terms
the President has laid down. Off
eials here were positive as not ac-
cepting the purported German note
as a document which means the end
of the war. It needs to be examined
and fully considered before the view
of the American government can be
stated
There is. however. no attempt to
dispute its authenticity and the diplo-

Hating Momentarily.
The Anglo-American forces on the
southerly side of the great wedge that
has been thrust into the enemy lines
southeast Of vaIenciennes are hating
momentarily before an extemptorized
German defensive line, running from
Valenciennes to the Disc.
Both to the north and the south of
this area. however, the Germans are
either retreating or preparing to fall
back under the continuous pressure
that Marshal Foch is applying.
Lille. the greatest of the French
manufacturing towns, is in none too
secure a position. The wedge below
Douai is threatening the whole line
running north past Lille into Flanders
and the Germans are palpably worried
also over the prospect of Gen. Plumer's
second British army and King Albert's
Belgian forces on their right flank
above Lille springing into renewed
activity.
