ling the unwary infantryman, we
were in again'-that is, in one of
the supporting trenches short
distance behind the front line
trench.
Here we remained for few
days, suffering no more than the
ordinary number of casualties from
shells and snipers and performing
the usual night tasks of digging,
hlling sand bags, and sand-bagging
parts of the trench blown in by
shells. And then our officers sprang
their little surprise. We went back
on the third night to the reserve
trenches which at this point lay
behind ridge and out of sight of
the Germans, and the next day our
captain told us what was expected
of us. The two days we had spent
in the support line, he said, had
given us a knowledge of the ter
rain in front of us and we should
know by now that at this point
F'ritz's' front was about 20 yards
from the British front. Well, about
300 yards in advance of our front
line was the remains of what had
been hedge fence, and behind this
was German trench, which was
to be our objective. Just beyond
this we were to dig ourselves in. We
were to have plenty of artillery sup
port, and the attack would have a
front of about two miles. &C. COM
pany's front would be about 200
yards in extent. 'C' company was

To Follow Barrage
"'C' company's right flank was
to pass through the ruins of the
chemical works and railway station
which lay about 800 yards in ad-
vance of the British front line
trench. We would go over at
7.S0 the next evening, and the sig
nal would be the opening of our
artillery's barrage. And so he went
on giving us all the details of how
fast the barrage or curtain of fire
would move and consequently how

worse than fools if we permit them
to be changed for evil. Therefore,
we must shun equally the bourbon
reactionaries who invite disaster by
refusing to face and grapple with
the needs of the hour, and the sinis-
ter demagogues and loose-minded
visionaries who preach a red folly
that would bring us to even worse
disaster"

RAIDERS ARE MOVING SOUTH

Washington, June 1.-THE. U-boat
raiders apparently have not yet left
the American coast.
Announcement was made by the
Navy department that the Norwegian
steamer Edsvold had been shelled and
sunk by an enemy submarine Tues
day afternoon, 40 miles off the Vir-
GINA capes, and that the crew had
been picked up and was being brought
to port by naval vessel.
This brings the total number Of YES
sells sunk by the raiders along the
coast since May Is up to Is, four Of
these being steamships and the others
schooners.
The crew Of three of the schooners
are missing. Ten passengers of the
Carolina also are missing and II men,
Der Of the crew. Exact figures wore
still lacking. .

An unoonfirmed report from Cape
May told Of an engagement Oft that
port between U-boat and destroyer
in which the latter was sunk.
The sinking of the Edsvold again
disclosed the position of the raiders.
1t Is evident they had been moving
steadily southwark from the New Jer-
sey coast. Presumably they were
back yesterday in the region where
they first began operations against
coasting schooners.
The raiders were closer In shore
when they attacked the Eidsvold than
on any previous occasion, except when
they launched the mines picked up off
the Delaware capes The tanker Pratt
APPARENTLY struck one of these mines
and a number OF others, unexploded,

The French tanker Radioliene, IN
successfully attacked at $3.50 O'Clock
Tuesday morning of the Maryland
coast, probably was a hundred miles
notrh Of the place where the Eidsvold
was sunk eight hours later.
Whether the raiders are still of the
Virginia capes, hopeful of fntercepting
more important craft than they have
yet assatled or are hurrying on south
ward. NO one here will attempt to
guess. {: =. $=.,,..... =.

that Of Secretary Daniels to members
