the -Cambrai road and along the river Scarpe the British are pushing forward, gaining more ground straight ening their line and drawing generally closer to the DrocOurt-Queant de- lenses of the enemy.
 Counter attacks have been launched on various parts of the battlefront, but none of them seems to have gained anything for the enemy. A majority of them have been completely broken up By the hail of bullets from ma chine guns and rifles before the ene- my reached the British positions
 In the north there apparently is live ly activity at several places. The British are reported to have made considerable advances. A report has just been received that Bailleul south west of Ypres is being shelled by the enemy. If this is correct it indicates that the Germans have withdrawn al together from that important town aud that the British either are entering Bailleul or will do so later.

AMERICANS VIGOROUSLY
 SHELL THE GERMANS
SENT THOUSANDS OF ROUNDS OF HIGH EXPLOSIVE SHELLS
 INTO THE HUNS POSITION

With the American Army in France Aug 30.-While the French troops on
 the right and left of the Americans on the front north of Soissons strug
 gled forward today. the Americans sent thousands of rounds of high ex- plosives shells and sharpnel into the German positions. They made little effort to advance their line
 Late this afternoon some progress was made by the Americans in the region of Jeyuigny Although the day was not marked by any spectacular advance, there was far from a lull in the activities on the American front s r.aA G&
 Since the Americans appeared on "Wednesday the Germans have Gis- played stubbornness and skill They have good positions and are defending them in a manner which would suggest that they might even attempt a serious counter attack The positions of the Americans are perhaps not so good and the contest seems to have mar rowed down to one of comparative merits of officers and men of the two organizations.
 Before the day was over the Germans had begun to show signs of weaken ing and observers reported troop movements which appeared to indi- cate re- grouping and perhaps retire ment The orders to the Americans were to maintain a harrassing fire throughout the day. over the field the American infantry remained ln the positions they held last night. Dug in behind almost every little rise in the plateau and hillside they awaited the order to attack. Closer to the Ger man positions. scores of shell holes sheltered the men from the sweeping machine gun fire, while further to the rear there were companies waiting to be called to their support
 The artillery went into the action early in the morning not in barrage, but firing first at one point in the German line and then at another, in accordance with reports indicating places where the Germans were mob . ilizing or where there might be dan ger of a concentration Rarely, if ever, have the American troops uv- livered over such a period so contin- uous fire. It was of a punishing char acter and must have wrought terrible destruction and probably much de- 
 The lines are close together and great shells from the howitzers were mixed with those of the lighter char acter while the big long range Amer ican guns sent far in the rear of the enemy lines shells to places indicated by observers in the aerial service.
 The American infantry between the lines was forced to become a part of the action today by the determined Germans whose long line of machine gun supplements was supplemented by groups of infantry who fired at every appearance of the Americans.
 It was day of sniping for them, es- peclally the machine gunners. Their fire did not rise in most cases ten inches above the ground. One gunner had the trick of holding the trigger until just three shots were fired All day long the gun gave forth it's "tat tat tat" every burst being followed by a slight change in direction.

PREMIER OF
ITALY EX0N[RATED
Gioftti, Head Of Italian Gov
ernment In 1914 Was Ac-
cused Of Treason.
By Henry Wood,

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Rome, Nov. 25.-Former Premier Clio
litti, accused of treason Saturday night
by Deputy Marquis centurione, was ex-
onerated by special investigating com
mittee last night, which reported that
the charges were without foundation.
Giolitti, who was head of the Ital-
ian government in 1914, was generally
credited with keeping Italy out of the
war during the early months of the
conflict. His cabinet was overthrown
and new ministry formed by Premier
Salandra.
Another committee investigated the
charges against Deputies Falcoli, Sci
orati, De Giovanni and Chiraniglio, and
Senators Panizzardi, Cefaly and Fras-
sati, who were accused jointly with Gil
alitti. The committee reported that
the charges were groundless and other
Socialist members demanded Centuri-
ones resignation. The investigating
committee included former Ministers
Bianchi and Panep and Deputies De
Sealea, Turati and Bistoia.
The accusations created tremendous
uproar and socialist members tried to
manhandle Centurione. A special ses-
sion of parliament was held yesterday
to hear the report of the committees,

|ORECON GUARD NOT

Salem To Have Two Oregon
Guard And Two National
Guard Organizations.

The Oregon Guard with its organiza-

cording to the best information from
military authorities. This is in oppo-
sition to the rumor given out few
days ago that the four companies of
Oregon Guard in Salem would soon be
dsbanded.
So far as known, there is no intention
on the part of the higher authorities
to disband the Oregon Guard, and so
far, no disbanding orders have been
given.
It is probable however, that as soon
as the second Oregon National Guard
company is organized in Salem, that
members Of the Oregon Guard who
wish to remain in their organizations,
will form two companies. By this ar

1t is probable that few men who
