"1sn't either. It's mine," asserted

"Well, if it's yours, let's hear you

"Thirty days" quoth the judge

indignant when he heard the cxplana-

AMERICAN TROOPS
 CREATE CONFIDENCE
RUSSIANS REALIZE THE UNITED STATES HAS NO SELFISH
 INTERESTS.

Kandalaska, Sunday, Aug. 4-Amer- ican troops participated in the landing of the allied forces at Archangel last week. The first detachment of the international forces included members of the Russian officers league.
 The participation of the Americans in the landing has been greeted en- thusiastically in northern Russia. The people consider that the United States is absolutely without selfish interests as regards Russia and looks upon the Americans as guarantee of the friendliness of the allies toward Russia.
 The population of Archangel re- ceived the troops with cheering. The men debarked and advanced toward Archangel, where already an anti Bolsheviki revolution had taken place. The leaders in this movement invited the protection of the allied troops. The final resistance of the Bolsheviki occurred Saturday. They were definitely defeated at the sta tion at Ysakagorka on the left bank of the Dvina.
 In their flight from Archangel the Bolsheviki forces carried away forty million rubles in money and much other treasure, but left many supplies behind them. The bridges and rail- T. rnI

vESlE HAS BEEN CROSSED
 IN SEVERAL PLACES.
The Drive from soissons is Headed ir Such Direction That 1t May be the Beginning of an Attempt to Duplicate in the Picardy Sector the Success of the Marne Salient.

Washington, Aug. 5.-Continuation Aisne line IS anticipated by army of ficers here, auJhough there appeared to be new lull in the heavy fighting alOns the Nesle today and no import ant advances were noted
 The fact that the Vesle had been crossed in several places by both French and American light troops scouting forward to feel out the en- emys rear guard positions, however seems to make 1t certain that no very determined stand along that wAtei course is to be expected.
 The French are already an the Hanks of the German forces in the Vesle- -Aisne triangle, having passed to the north bank of the Aisne near Soissons and across the Vesle near Rheims. The development of triple jaw pincer attack such as that which routed the enemy on the Ourcq ana with American first army corps again forming the center jaw is indicated by the operations so far reported.
 The Americans are beyond the Yes le at Eismes and their advance in the center would break the back Of any serious resistance in the Irregular salient between the Aisne and the Vesle. The situation about Soissons where the French have pushed well out to the northeast of that city after crossing the Aisne is full of interest- ing possibilities to observers here.
 1t may be that the purpose of this movement is to gain such position in the rear of the Aisne line as to force the enemy to abandon that nat urally strong defensive position with out pitched battle.
 Again the purpose might be even more limited and have to do only with sweeping the enemy back from the immediate vicinity of Soissons, as he has been swept back from the west and northwest fronts of Rheims.
 The drive from Soissons, however, is headed in such a direction that It may be the beginning of a far more ambitions project by General ENoch. II might well foreshadow, officers said, extension of the battle front north ward in an effort to carry the allied lines up to the Disc front, which would be one way of attempting to duplicate in the Picardy theatre what has hap pened in the Aisne-Marne salient

GERMAN FORCES ARE
 SKILlFULLY RETIRING
ADVANCE OF THE ALLIES HAS BEEN SLOWER TO BRING
 GUNS INTO POSITION.

London, Aug. 5.-The correspond ent of Reuters, Limited, at American headquarters in France, in a dispatch timed i o'clock Monday afternoon says:
 "The rapid advance of the last two days has become slower anti stcadier, n, only owing to the fresh show of O. a:p. resis l '',c, hut :rcm the nee essity of getting the impliments of battle again into their proper places. The German retirement throughout has been conducted with the greatest skill and not single man or gun has been used to delay our advance than was absolutely necessary for the purpose. Consequently only a small force of the enemy was left facing us when the final order came to them to withdrew to the Vesle and this force, with q few hours start, had no difficulty in eluding us.
 Indeed, it had no more trouble than to keep our cavalry patrols at a distance"
 After discussing the probabilities of a German stand he says:
 Doubtless there will be some sharp fighting before the Rheims half of the river actually is in our hands.
 "We are nearing a decision of in- tense significance for the future, but the next few days probably will be occupied in operations which will only clear the way 10 it"

SEVEN AMERICANS WERE
 ABOARD THE VESSEL
The Ship Carried 600 Sick and Wounded and Nearly 100 of Them We're Killed by the Explosion Of the Torpedo-Dynamos Were De- stroyed, Plunging the Ship Into Darkness.

A British Port, Saturday, Aug B. The torpedoeing early this morning of the British ship Warilda was one of the most narrowing disasters in the history of submarine warfare. The number of dead is variously es- timated from 105 to 13O and upwards and includes several women nurses. The ship carried 600 sick and wounded Among them were seven Americans, two officers and five en- listed men, all of whom have been accounted for except one private.
 There were aboard S9 nurses and members of the voluntary aid de- partment and the crew comprised about 200 men.
 More than 650 survivors, brought here shortly after six o'clock were given first aid treatment, food and clothing. The patients were placed aboard special trains which had been waiting to receive them, and sent to hospitals in various parts of the country.
 The torpedo struck the aft part of the engine room, killing the third engineer and two other members of the engine room force. The dynamo was destroyed, plunging the vessel into darkness.
 Just over the dynamo was the ward room which contained more than 100 patients. Most of these were killed outright by the explosion and the others, many of whom had been freshly injured by the torpedo, found themselves trapped.
 It was impossible for outside aid to reach them This part of the ship quickly settled and water flooded the ward room, drowning the caged men.
 Stories of the fearful struggle in the darkness to rescue the helpless invalids are told by survivors. The ship remained afloat more than two hours, but for great part of the time continued under headway because the engines could not be stopped. This condition greatly hampered the rescue work and in addition three or four boats were smashed while being lowered. throwing their occupants into the sea.
 All the soldier patients and the nurses testify to the heroic efforts of the officers and crew.
 The Warida had been in the chan nel service two years, and this was her first crossing from France fin which she did not carry number of German wounded prisoners.
 Members of the crew remarked over this fact and some expressed the opinion that it was of sinister signifi- canoe.
 The American Red Cross Is mak- ing the survivors comfortable and putting the patients on trains to be removed to hospitals.

Germans Are Employing the Well Tried BaVarianS and PrusSian Guards to Stop the Allied Advance.
Sending of Achievements to the Crown Prince Has Weakened the Army of Prince Ruppretch and Allies May Strike at This Section of the Battle Line.

SGissons~Rheims sector. detached large numbers of his men and sent them 10 he aid of his sorely tried Imperial cousin, the German crown prince, thereby weakening his line, while Field Marshal Haig's front was not materially touched by with jlawals
 1t is not improbable. therefore, that Ruppretch is worrying somewhat over this diminution in strength and already has placed barriers between himself and the forces fronting him to ward off possible attacks and is endeavoring to ascertain what chances he has to hold other posi- tions from which he had intended ultimately to launch a drive toward the channel ports.
