electoral vote for Hughes, elected
a Republican governor, displaced

Republicans and caused nine Repub-

Washington, Oct 5-The great trunk railway system near the Bel gian border, which feeds the whoie central arch of the German lines in France, is the goal of the First Amer ican army, which General March. chief of staff said today, is making rapid progress. Ofucial dispatches Ishow the Americans 10 be eighteen miles from the nearest point on the important railroad. General March said
 Reports today have indicated that despite the stiffening of the German resistance tho American forces are pushing onward and the distance to the goal is being cut down rapirly.
 The American divisions at that point said General March today, m- dicatIng the Meuse front on a great war department map, "threaten the main railway line of communication fro Germany to the west fropt, the railroad coming through Germany and passing through Sedan and other places of historic and military inter est It is the most stragetic artery of support of the Germany army. The Americans have reached a point IS miles in d direct line from that rail- road. <"
 To back up that American effort, General March showed that the flow of American troops to France contin- ues at d rate of more than a quartef of million month. A total of l,- S50000 men have embarked. he said. The news during the last week from all fronts has been excellent, he con- tinued.

 The contract in the forenoon was not surprising because Of the low vls- ibility, but conditions the afternoon were excellent and full advantage was taken of them by the French and Amercans, who carried out a hun dred missions ranging from simple observations to bombing the back areas.

Washington, Oct 5.-An Austrian appeal for an armistice for discussion of peace on President Wilson's own terms, is regarded here as the logical sequel of the presidents recent sum. mary rejection of the proposal that hostilties be suspended for secret and binding peace discussions.
 What the American governments answer 10 such an appeal would be is indicated by the statement autnoriss1 when the AustroaGungarian foreign minister complained that his accept anoe of President Wilson's principles had not been noticed-that peace could not be talked of upon any terms Sd long as Germany and Austria occu- pied d single foot Of conquered terrl-- tory. m
 New and more aggressive phases of the Teutonic effort for peace by nc- gotiation before allied and American soldiers invade German soil evidently are about to be launched, and the only question is the exact form they will take Officials here will be surprised neither by the Austrian armstice plea, which BeFne press dispatches through Paris tonight say is coming. nor by a similar move by Germany herself, which the new chancellor, Prince Max imilian of Baden, Is said to have pro- posed or to be about to propose in the reichstag. There is no disposition to believe that an carly end of the wax is in sight in spite of the fact the Germans are known to be des ately anxious to halt oy diplomacy steady advance of their enemies ward the German border
 Proposals will continue to D through and there no doubt hs that sooner or later as the great ta of driving the Germans out of Belgil and France progresses, the Teuton : alliance will crumble and seek sX terms as were given Bulgaria

SUCCESSFUL MEN
HENRY H. ROGERS.

"The proudest moment Of my life," said
Mr.. Rogers, was the time when / was
advanced from driving a grocers wagon
at IS week to head clerk at IS a week. y
After leaving school, at the age of six
teen, young Rogers sold papers on the
streets Of New Bedford, his native town.
and soon got the job of driving a gro
GERS wagon. lie did this work for five
years at SO per week.
1t was while, he was engaged IN the
grocery store that oil was discovered in
Pennsylvania. He joined the rush to the
oil fields and shortly after entered the
employ of Pratt 65 Co, oil refiners
Thus he began a career almost without
parallel In the romance of riches lie it
was who suggested the plan that all pro-
duclng oil well owners should pool their
product and market it through one con-
cen. This was the inception Of the
Standard OH Co, with which Mr.. Rogers
was connected the rest of his life. He
made a vast fortune of many millions.
When a young man his father said to
him, Make your hands support your head
nnd maybe in time your head will sup
port your hands" He never forgot it and
Tor eleven years worked with his hands.
