With the British Army In France.
Aug. 27.-While the Germans were
\ busily engaged in defending them
pelves against the attacks OF the Brit
fish and French armies from the An.
Gre river to the region OF Scissors.
Field Marshal Haig early Monday
morning struck another surprise blow
over . new front north Of the old bat
tie zone. The new offensive was
launched from the east OF Arras on
the Scarpe river and southwark to the
Cojeul. All along the front the Brit
ish pressed forward, at some places to
. depth Of more than two miles, and
captured q half dozen or more vii.
lagos. among them Monchy lie Preux.
Guemappe and Wancourt.
Across the Cojeul the new British
attacks on the old battle front brought
them to the villages Of Mory and St.
Leeer. and farther south the small
town Of Fevreuil. one and half miles
northeast Of Bapaume. from which
the British pressed on eastward
about . mile.
Fay:Hsr south the British are re-
ported unofficially to have reached
the western outskirts OF Thilloy in
the nipper movement they are carry.
ing out against Bapaume. With Haig's
mon now standing well within gun
range Of the town. 1t seems likely
that the Germans will be forced to
evacuate Bapaume in short order.
Additional gains also have been
made by the British east OF Albert
and on both sides of the Somme river.
In fact. Notwithstanding the efforts Of
the Germans through the use of large
rsinforcements to hold them In check.
the British and French all along the
line from Albert to Scissors have ma
terially bettered their positions and
carried further forward their plan Of
making the Picardy battle ground un-
tenable for the enemy.
Fresnoy.les-Roye to the north and
st. Mard to the south OF Roye, both
have been captured by the French. de-
spite desperate resistance of the Ger.
mans. and Roye. like Bapaume In the
north. apparently IL In danger Of b.
ing pinched out Of the line In an en-
veloping movement. More than GOO
prisoners were taken by the French
in tNc operation.
The operations Of the British on the
northern part Of the front from the
east Of Arras to the region OF Bulle.
court have brought them upon or very
near to the old Hindenburg line.
There Ia still considerable activity
on the eastern part OF the battle front
in the VosEes mountain regions.
There has been an increase In the
activity In the Albanian theater. Here
the Austrians twice attacked the
FrancO-Italian troops. but were re.
pulsed. Later the French slightly
withdrew their line In order to main.
tain liaison with the Italians.
The British momentum apparently
increased In spite OF the strong efforts
OF the Germans to stay the oncominG
rush OF tanks. cavalry and infantry.
More than 1900 German prisoners al
ready have been counted and the en-.
envy losses In prisoners are said to be

WESTERN UNION SENDS
 MESSAGES BY TRAIN
POstOffice Inspectors Take Five Men Bearing Telegrams - Practice Has Been Going on in East Some Time.

Washington, June 20.-Postal in- spectors today arrested a number of travelling agents of the Western Union Telegraph Company on trains between Boston, New York, Philadel- phia, Baltimore and Washington and seized suit cases they were carrying filled with messages filed for trans mission by telegraph.
 This practice, which is said to have beeni no peration by the telegraph company for some time, is considered violation of postal law forbidding persons not connected with the postal service from conducting a traffic in communications over regular post roads.
 Thief acts discovered will be pre- sented to grand juries and officials of the telegraph company will be sum- moned to explain the practice. The penalty for violation of the postal law is fine of not more than $500 or six months imprisonment.
 Postala uthorities for several weeks have been Investigating reports that the telegraph company was sending night letters and other messages by train rather than by wire, andd eliv- ering them the following day with all the marks of telegraph transmission. The practice was reported to have extended even to some day messages, intended for immediate transmission.
 Owing to the extreme rush of tele- graph messageb usiness in recent months, the company found it impos- sble to transmit all messages offered by wire, it iss aid, and resorted to the messenger system, using fast trains between eastern cities So far as is disclosed by postal authorities, the system was not used extensively in other parts of the country, although investigation will be made to deter mine it's existence.

TAKEN
 GERMAN TRENCH
 AND GUN NESTS
Foe Who Remains to Fight Killed By Machine Gun and Rife Fire-Short But Deadly Fight.

With the American Army in France June 20.-At dawn this morning, American troops stormed German trenchesa nd machine gun nests in front of Cantigny, in the Montdidier sector. Those of the German garrison who remained to fight and carry out their orders to hold the positions at any cost, were killed by rife and ma chine gun fire and bayonet The Americans also took prisoners.
 The American artillery put down heavy box barrage on the rear of the enemy positions. A few minutes later the infantry swarmedo yer the top and rushed the trenches. Some of the Germans had tried to escape through the barrage, crashing to their rear, but few of them got through, for numerous German dead were found later.
 Prisoners captured declare that they had orders to hold on at all costs, and this was apparent by the desperate manner in which they fought. The battle was short, but deadly, for the enemyp ositions were swept clean of Germans. The official reports avs that a great many Germans were killed
 One machine gun nest containing eight men, which hadb cen sprinkling Cantigny for some days, was blown up by a direct hit from a trench mortar bomb.
 The enemy artillery has been more active on the Foul sector since the heavy gassing to which the Ameri- cans subjected them yesterday. The infantry action ha. been confined, however, to an attempted raid, in which only sixty men participated, in spite of the German official state ment, which said that they had pene- trated the American lines at Seiche- prey.
 The Germans have thrown about 6 900 shells along the American front in the Woevre.

.PROH| AMENDMENT
 ID COME UP TODAY
Senate Agricultural Committee Delays Vote on Jones Pro- pOsal, Because of Rush of Other Business.-

Washington, June 20.-Because or the rush of other business in which members were interested the meeting of the Senate Agricultural Committee scheduled for today to act on the Jones amendment to the agriculture appropriation bill was postponed until tomorrow.
 Refusal of President Wilson to op- pose actively for the present at least the Jones amendment to the $11 ,00O,- 900 emergency agricultural appropri- ation bill providing for a "bone dry" nation for the period of the war, caused Senate leaders today to pre- dict that the amendment would be favorably reported by the agricultural committee.
 Few senators would express an opinion as to the probability of the amendment being passed by the Sen ate, for the reason that President Wilson is understood to have told Senator Smith of South Carolina, act ing chairman of the agricultural committee, yesterday his declination to oppose the amendment depended on whether discussion of it holds up im- portant legislation.

 The car is especially built and de- signed for distinctive service. The body is mounted on a Moon Six chassis with wheel base of 146 inches; the motor will develop sixty horsepower. The exterior is finished in a new shade of French gray. The interior is finished in dark brown ma hogany with unholstering to match.
