FRENCH IMPROVE POSITION

London, Eng, May 1.-The failure
of the German attacks southwest OF
Ypres on Monday with its immense
losses to the enemy is commented Or
here in more hopeful and more CON
fident tone, which is in marked con
trast of the German advance toward
channel ports.
The consensus of opinion is that
the enemy on Monday suffered the
most severe and costly repulse since
he began his offensive on March 2l'
and it is contended that If the terms
Of victory and defeat are applicable
to single phases of such a prolonged
battle then the allies on Monday won
a very substantial victory.

SOUTH DAKOTA'S
GOLDPRODUCTION
HASBEEN STEADY

Pierre, S. D., May 1.-Of1icial stats,
tics obtained from the state mine in
spector indicate that the production
Of gold i'm South Dakota for the past
five years has been almost as steady
as. the value of the precious metal.
But the case OF tungsten has been
different. Official figures show that
the mining of this product has been
greatly developed. In 1913 only S2,0OO
worth of the mineral was brought out
of the earth. The latest available rec
ord shows a yield Of 1891, 120. 49,.
The production of gypsum has fallen
off steadily for nearly three years,
but lithia and lead are showing an
increase.

Apparently, the allied commanders
are content to hold on to their present
line, and to let the Germans make
more attacks and endeayor to drive
them back.
Germans Hard Pressed.
In their desperate repulse, the Ger
mans not only failed to gain, although
using larger forces than the defend
ers, but they were driven from some
positions they had held since the cap
ture of Mont KENNEL last week.
Along the Flanders front in Picardy
strong artillery bombardments con-
tihue. The Germans have been throw
ing great numbers OF shells into the
positions around Hangard, south or
the Somme, probably in preparation
for still another attempt to drive the
French back to lhe Avre. A German
attack in the NOyOn sector brought
the enemy into French positions from
which, however, they were hurled in
spirited fighting.
! American Artillery Busy.
The American artillery on the Pic
ardy front has been busy Smelling en-
envy targets, but there has been no
infantry activity. On the Toul sector
American aviators have brought down
a German machine, the third in three
weeks. >s
In Mesopotamia, General Marshall
has advanced north-northeast Of Bag
dad, captured two towns and nearly
900 prisoners. The Turks avoided bat
tie, at Kifra, 100 miles northeast OF
Bagdad, and fled toward Kirfuk, about
16O miles mort hand On the main
road to Mosul, apparently the British
objective. A retreating column was
attacked and more than 500 prison
ers taken British cavalry then cap
tured Tushurmantli, about 80 miles
northwest Of Kirfa.
The pursuit toward Kirfuk con
tinues.
Demands Electoral Reform.
Declaring that plutocratic suffrage
giving political rights to wealth, is
mo longer possible in our nation,
Chancellor Won Hertling has informed
tbs lower house Of the Prussiau diet
that II must pass the electoral re-
form bill or give up more rights to
the people through force. The chan
cellor threatened the Prussians with
revolution if they did not meet the
demand speedily. Apparently the
chancellor feared grave disorders if
the reform bill, which, he admitted
was hedged around with safeguards, IL
not passed. A motion to postpone &c
ton was defeated by S To :.
No Break in Quiet.
.Today's official statements reveal
no break in the comparative quiet on
