ANOTHER OFFENSIVE
 WILL BE LAUNCHED
WASHINGTON ARMY OFFICIALS BELIEVE NEW ATTACK
 IMPENDING.
NO CERTAIN INF 0RMATION
Conditions Made That Considerable Forces Would Be Available For Con- jectured Drive-Base Conclusion
 On Series of Minor Happenings.

Washington. Now that the Ger mans have been cleared cut of Bel gian Flanders and much of Northern France, army officials here are watch ing the battle front intently, many of them with distinct feeling that a new storm of attack may be about to break against the enemy. There is nothing to indicate that this expectancy was fodnded upon definite information, and it probably grows out of 3 number of happenings of minor character in themselves, but possibly important links in a chain of events to be dis closed.
 Beyond doubt the German retire ment in Belgium has slowed down. However, it is not yet clear whether this is due to the fact that the re- treating forces are nearing on the whole northern front the line which frequently has been selected by mlli- tary critics as the first pausing place on the way to the Mouse or the bor- der to the necessities of extending all lied communications as the troops ad- vance It is probable, officers said, that there is necessity for a breathing spell on both sides.
 There is little doubt here that the German army is headed for nothing short of the Mouse line, and that any pause will be but temporary to permit readjustment of the columns and sup ply lines in order that the same or derly sequence of movements shall characterize subsequent retirements. Several halts of this character may be expected, it was said, as the withdraw al project is carried out. The fact that the allied armies are hampered by extending communication lines gives opportunity for such halts before Marshal Foch's forces can come up in sufficient force to compel a resump- tion of the rearward movement.
 The line surrendered by the enemy from Lille northward to the coast, 1t was pointed out, was far stronger and no longer than he now stands upon in Belgium In addition, by the eyacua- tion of the Flanders coast, he has fur nished the allies with means of set ting up new and more direct commu- nication lines from England via Os- tend, Zeebrugge or other Flanders ports. Without question, it is said, these avenues of supplying the ad- vancing armies already are being opened to free the longer lines back into France of that burden and conse- quently officers cannot see any tacti- cal advantage gained by the enemy unless he intends to fall back at least to the line of the Mouse.

ALLIES CLEARING
 BELGIUM OF ENEMY
ZEEBRUEGGE AND HEYSE HAVE BEEN OCCUPIED AND TOWN
 OF BRUGES sToRMED.

London. Y British and Belgian forces are rapidly clearing Northern Belgium of the enemy, according to the official British statement relative to operations in Belgium issued by the war office. The statement reads:
 The Belgian army has occupied Zeebruegge and Heyse and has storm ed the town of Bruges. Elsewhere the Belgians have crossed the Ghent- Bruges Canal. On their left they have l reached the Dutch frontier and on the right are half way from Bruges to Ghent.
 "The French forces have carried the town of Thielt and the high ground in that vicinity in spite of stubborn resistance by the enemy, who en- deavored to bar the way to the Lys. At the end of the day the Frenh had reached the line of Hulle-Vincat and had advanced along the Lys to Gramme, Gotthem and Wielsbeke.
 The Second British Army has com pletely cleaned up Courtrai, carried it's line nearly four miles east of the place. To the south, the British have reached the Courtrai-Tournal road and although all communications have been destroyed by the Germans, have advanced almost up to the Sheldt River
 Since beginning operations in Flanders the allied armies have ad. vanced 30 miles over front of 36 miles. All of Western Flanders as we'll as the Belgian coast has been cleared of the enemy"
 In withdrawing from Flanders and the Belgian coast, the Germans not only gave up their submarine bases. but also left behind immense air dromes. Before the enemy retire ment Northern Belgian might have been known as the home of the Gotha By moving eastward the Germans lose the points nearest to England from which they used to carry out raids upon London and other English towns. Hereafter, it is believed, the Germans will find it increasingly difficult to make air raids upon London.
 The evacuation of Ostend and Zee bruegge will make easier the work of the British navy in keeping the Brit ish Channel clear of submarines. The Germans also have been forced to re- move the torpedo boats from thos bases

HUNS TO MODIFY
 SUBMARINE WAR
ISSUES ORDERS TO U-BoAT COM MANDERs EXCLUDING ToRPE-
 DOING OF PASSENGER SHIPS.

London. - The German reply to President Wilson's note, the text If which was received here by wireless, says Germany hopes the United States will approve of no demand which would be irreeoncilable with the hon. or of the German people and with the opening of the way to peace Of justice.
 Germany protests against the ref erences of President Wilson to illeg- al and inhumane acts. Denial is made that the German navy purposely de- stroyed life boats with passengers. The government proposes that the facts be cleared up by neutral com missions.
 Germany has dispatched orders 10 submarine commanders precluding the torpedoing of passenger ships.
 The German government suggest 5 to President Wilson that an opportur= ity be brought about for fixing the details of the evacuation of occupied territories.
 Germany claims the sanction of iIl-  ternational law for carrying out de struction of property during retreats and says her troops are under stlic5 instructions to spare private property and care for the population to tie best of their ability. Where transgres- sions occur, the note says, the guilty are beirg punished
 No future German government Will be able to take or hold office unless it possesses the confidence of majority of the Reichstag, the note announces.
 Germany has agreed that condi- tions of an armistice should be left | o the military advisers and that the actual standard of power on both sides in the field should form the ba- sis for arrangements.

 "More than 100000 American sol diers have sailed from the ports in this country to participate in the war overseas. Tn reporting this fact to you. I feel sure that you will be in- terested in the following data show ing the progress of our military eff fort.
 "In my letter of July 1, 1918, l in- formed you that between May 8, 1917, and June 30, 1918, over 100000 men had either been landed in France or were en route thereto. Since July 1, 1918, authorizations by months have been as follows:

 "In our overseas operations I feel that we have good reasons to be proud and thankful of the results ob- tained. Our losses have been exceed ingly small considering the size of the force transported, and this is due to the efficient protection given Ameg- ican conveys by the naval forces.

Proposed Federal Amendment is to Be Brought Up in the Sen ate Today-BOth Sides Are Confident.

Washington, Sept. 25.-Outcome of the vote in the Senate on woman suf- frage apparently was in greater doubt tonight than has been any action by Congress in many years.
 The only point on which the advo- cates and opponents are agreed is that the House resolution proposing sub mission to the states of the Susan B. Anthony amendment to the federal constitution will be called up when the Senate convenes tomorrow. Both sides expressed the greatest conf dence,, but it was not certain a vote would be reached before adjourn ment, although Senator Jones of New Mexico, chairman of the Woman Suf- frage committee and other suffrage leaders were determined tonight to hold the resolution before the Senate until final disposition.

VETERANS ALMOST
 FORFEIT CIVIL WAR
Patriotism is Dominating Note of the Confederate Reunion at TulSa-Will Parade Indoors Gen. Van Zandt Commands.

Tulsa, Okla, Sept. 25,-This was another day of patriotism for the Confederate veterans, their sons and their associates in annual reunion here. The veterans aren O longer liv- ing over their battles of more than half century ago, but with newspap- CTS in hand, they talk of the progress of the allied troops on the western battle front. "I'd go myself if could be of any use,' is the most frequently heard sentence on the streets, in the hotels, in headquarters and wherever the veterans congregate.
 A pledge of hearty support was sent to President Wilson in a resolu- ton adopted today.
 The Sons of Veterans, also adopted and forwarded to the president reso- lution pledging their aid to the gov ernment in any capacity in which they are needed
 The veterans will get down to busi- ness tomorrow after two days of speech-making, hand shaking and sightseeing. At noon all the asso- ciated organizations will take part in the memorial exercises and in the af- ternoon, committees will report. the place of the next meeting will be de- cided upon and the officers elected.
 Friday the reunion will close with the annual parade. It will pass over the stage of the convention hall and will be reviewed by officials of the organizations from their seats in the hall. The stage which extends an en- tire block. has a solid driveway at each end and the 300 horsemen who will lead the march, the hundreds of motor cars and the long line of veter- ans on foot can pass through.
 c. B. Stuart of Oklahoma City, former federal judge, delivered the chief address today. He declared the chief battles of the war between the states were battles between gentle men as compared to the enemy which the United States is now fighting. He recounted incidents of military

Both sides expect only brief debate on the resolution and believe a vote will be reached during the day. Sup porters of the measure said they would have from one to three votes over the necessary two-thirds major lty, but opponents expressed confi- dence that they had enough votes to defeat the resolution and thus pre- vent any further action on equal suf- frage until the Sixty-sixth Congress convenes in December, 1919.
 Final arrangements for tomorrow's $ contest were made today with nego- tiations for pairing of absent senators and campaigning by both factions.
 Some anxiety was expressed over the absence of Senator Gore of Okla homa, who had promised to vote for the amendment. He has been in Okla homa, but is hurrying back to vote on the amendment. A telegram received from him today said that h belated train caused him to miss connections and that he cannot arrive before to- morrow afternoon

friendly to the Bulgarians. Although there are still German officers with the Bulgarians, it is believed there are no definite German units with them.
 The Bulgarians in their retreat northward are not likely to be able to defend the famous Babuna pass, south east of Uskub, where the Serbians made heroic resistance in November 1915. The pass is near Veles, which is almost within reach of the advanc- ing Serbians.
