Quick Answer Given.

Washington, Sept. 16.-The United
States, as was fully expected, has un-
conditionally rejected Germany's
peace feeler. In doing so the govern
rnent has spoken for all the co-bellig-
erents.
Alomst Immediately after receiving
the Austrian Governments note from
the minister from Sweden, Mr.. Eken-
gren, Secretary Lansing tonight is
sued this formal statement:
Americas Answer.
"I am authorized by the President
to state that the following will be the
reply of this government to the Aus
tro7Hungarian note proposing an un-
official conference of belligerents:
"The Government of the United
States feels that there is only one
reply which it can make to the
suggestion of the Imperial Aus
Hungarian Government. 1t has
repeatedly and with entire candor
stated the terms upon which the
United States would consider peace
and can and will entertain no pro-
posal for conference upon mat
ted concerning which it has made its
position and purpose so plain"

HUN PEACE OFFENSIVE.
Austria Outlines Plan for Exchange Of
Views With Enemy Powers.

Amsterdam, Sept. 15.-In extend
ing an invitation to all the belliger-
ent governments to enter into non
binding discussions at some neutral
meeting place, the Austro-Hungarian
government states that the object Of
the conference would be to secure an
exchange of views which would show
whether those prerequisites exist
which would make the speedy inau-
guration of peace negotiations appear
promising"
The Austrian proposal which is
announced in an official communica-
ton telegraphed here from Vienna
suggests that there be no Interrupt
tion of the war and that the dis
cussion would go only so far as con-
sidered by the participants to offer
prospects of success"
The proposal calls for all the bel
ligerents to send delegates for a
confidential and unbindfhg discus
sion on the basic principles for the
conclusion of peace in a neutral
country and at near date that would
yet have to be agreed upon"
Conference Proposed. -
The proposal says the conference
would be one of delegates who
would be charged to make known to
one another the conception of their
governments regarding those prin-
ciples and to receive analogous COM
munications as we'll as to request
and give frank and candid explana-
tions on all those points which need
to be precisely defined"
The government announces that a
note embodying it's suggestions had
been addressed to the various bellig-
erent powers and that the Holy See
had been apprised of the proposal in
a special note. The governments OF
the neutral states also had been &C.
quainted with the proposal.

, Shot By Playmate.

Bennettsville, Sept. 14.-A dis
tressing accident occurred in Ben
nettsville late Thursday afternoon
when little Coke Breeder accident
ally shot little Joe Reynolds with a
shotgun resulting in short time in
the death of the latter. The two
boys, each with shotgun, had been
out in the pasture and swamp adjoin'
ing the home place of Mr.. Breeden
and in some way the gun was acci'
dentally discharged, the load taking
effect in the side of the lad. The &C
cident has cast a gloom over the en-
tire community.
The two boys had been close friends
and this was not the first time that
they had been out together shooting
at squirrels and rabbits in the pas
ture.

than they had expected.
The Germans made only one count
er attack in an attempt to stem the
onrushing tide Of Americans.
The Germans, however, began their
protective barrage too early. They
gave the Americans warning of what
was coming and Gen. Pershing's men

counter attack when it started.
Americans Fire Deadly.
Prisoners unanimously testified to
the accuracy and deadliness of the
American preparatory fire.
Observers had so completely locat-

vance that the enemy troops could
only take to their dugouts and await
the end of the bombardment.
There was high wind during
Thursday, but the balloons were able
to remain up for observation. One
American balloon broke away and
drifted eastward. One of the Ger

five minutes.

TRANSPORT TORPEDOED.
All of the $500 Soldiers Aboard Res
ued.-Off British COAST

washington, Sept. ll.-NeWS VI
the torpedoing of the British liner
Persic, with $500 American troops
on boards in the war zone September
6 was given to the American people
today, first through the British ad-
miralty and then later through the
navy department. All the soldiers
were rescued by accompanying de-
s,troyers; the steamer itself was
beached and the submarine is believ-
ed to have been accounted for.
Officials here review. the result of
the attack more as an Allied success
than as disaster. The fact that the
steamer was torpedoed when she was
endeavoring to overtake the conveyed
fleet of transports after overcoming
engine trouble which had forced her
to lag convinced officers that subma-
rine commanders still are fearful of
attacking troop ships in convoy. And
the immediate and completely sue
cessful assistance rendered by the de-
stroyers was taken as an additional
evidence that the conveying system
in vogue is practically perfect.
News Held Back.
First word of the attack on the
Persic, it was learned officially,
reached the navy department on the
night of September 6, in brief dis
patch from Vice Admiral Sims, a.
although navy officials have emphati-
cally denied in the interim that any
important news of submarine activi-
ties was being withheld. 1t was un-
derstood that the British admiralty
expressed the request that they be
permitted to announce the news of
the attack.
Rumors that troop ship had been
sunk, probably with heavy loss of life
have been current in Washington
since the publication of what evident
ly was an inspired London dispatch
stating that Allied naval circles had
reason to believe that German sub
marines soon would concentrate their
efforts in an attempt to stop the
steady flow of American soldiers over
seas. No explanation of the purpose
of this article could be obtained, how
ever, from naval officials here.
Troops Well Protected.
. Attacks on troop ships by subma-
rines constantly are expected by Off
cials and it may be that a new and
more determined campaign has been
decided upon by the Germans because
of the reverses suffered by their arm
les. The greatest possible protection
is afforded troop ships and this in
creases as the American naval forces
in the war zone are added to by new
construction in American yards.
The, records achieved by the Ameri-
can and Allied navies in the trans
porting more than 100000 Amer
ican soldiers overseas with the loss
of only POI of them still is consid-
cred miraculous, and it is accepted by
naval officers as testifying to the sue
cess of the convoy system.

that commanding point.
From Two Angles.


While the heavy attacks were be-
ing made on the north and south lines
of St. Mihiel sector, force around
the point of the angle was inaugural
ing series of raids, rushing far into
the sides of the German body. The
strength of the Germans is not
known, but it is certain there are at
least seven divisions in the salient.
It has been learned that the enemy
had collected a quantity of stores in
the sector and will doubtless attempt
to remove them.
The front under attack was about
forty-five miles in length. The French
were in the line at allotted points, but
the distribution of the forces was
such that wherever the Germans turn
ed they faced American troops.
Just how much the Germans were
surprised by the offensive in sector
so long inactive is uncertain. 1t
seems not improbable, however, that
they had noticed the indications CIV
en- for many days past that some new
plan was being adopted. The n1obi-
! lization of the big force was accom-
plished, however, almost wholly in
night marches, the men slipping from
other sectors into positions in front
of the enemy here, oftentimes without
even the population of the districts
through which they passed being
aware of the movement.

DID WORK IN p HOURS.
Reduced St. Nlihiel, Adding $50
Square Miles Territory.

Washington, Sept. 15.-1t required
lust twenty-seven hours for the Amer
ican troops and their supporting
French divisions to reduce the st.
Mihiel salient. This was disclosed Dy
Gen. Pershing's communique for yes
terday, received tonight at the war
department.
Gen. Pershing said that besides lib
Grating $50 square miles of territory
and taking $4,000 ,prisoners the
Americans captured more than 100
guns of all calliber and Hundreds OF
machine guns and trench mortars."
A partial examination of the battle
field. the American commander said,
shows that great quantities of am
munition, telegraph and railroad ma
terials, rolling stock, clothing and
equipment was abandoned by the enc
nv. This was in addition to the
large stores burned by the Germans
during their hasty retreat.
Text of Statement.
The statement follows:
"Headquarters American Expedi-
tionary forces, Saturday, Sept. "a: =.
Section A: In the St. Mihiel Sec
tor our advanced units have main
tanned touch with the enemy's forces
and have repressed a counter attack
attempted by them in the region OF
Jaulny.
eve are now able to estimate the
success obtained during the two pre-
vious days. The dash and vigor OF
our troops and of the valiant French
divisions, which fought shoulder to
shoulder with them, is shown by the
fact that the forces attacking on both
faces of the salient effected a.junction
and secured the result desired within
twenty-seven hours.
Vast Stores Taken.
Besides liberating more than $50
square miles of territory and taking
$4,000 prisoners, we have captured a
mass of material. Over 100 guns of
all calibers and hundreds of machine
guns and trench mortars have been
taken. In spite of the fact that the
enemy during his retreat burned large
stores a partial examination of the
battlefield shows that great quantities
of ammunition, telegraph material,
railroad material, rolling stock, cloth
ing and equipment have been aban-
doned. Further evidence of the haste
with which the enemy retired is found
in the uninjured bridges which he left
behind.
French pursuit, bombing and re-
connoisance units and British and
Italian bombing units, divided with
our own air service the control of the
air and contributed materially to the
success of the operation"

10000 HUNS IN SALIENT.
Escaped at the Rate of One Thousand
Every Hour.

American Headquarters in France,
Sept. 14.-When the st. Mihiel opera
ton began there were from 10000 to
100000 Germans inside the salient.
They escaped at the rate of 1000
hourly, but the pincers closed and
trapped a hitherto unknown number.
The $4,000. already taken prisoners
does not include the bulk of those be-
lieyed to be trapped in the salient.
