LESS THAN THIRD RAISED.
Fourth Liberty Loan Must Experience a
Great Acceleration.

Washington, D. G., Oct. 9.-More than
~, ,400,000,000 must be subscribed by
the American people within the next
ten days If the fourth Liberty loan Of
six billion dollars is to be a success.
Reports from all Of the twelve federal
reserve districts showed early to-day
that in the nine days that have passed
less than 81 600, 100000 has been sub
scribed. Only one of Che twelve districts
the st. Louis district has raised half
its allotment. The district totals to-day
showed st. Louis leading with 5s.4 per
cent subscribed and Minneapolis a poor
second with 44.6 per cent.
German peace proposals have not af.
fected the campaign in the opinion of
officials, however. Yesterdays total bond
sales were $26s,000,000 over those Of
the preceding day With the making
clear of the allied position by President
Wilson in his communication to Chan.
cellor Macmillan the daily reports are
expected to be more encouraging.
AT the present rate Of going and
with the present average per capita,

view to-day, "the fourth Liberty loan
may not reach the desired goal within
the allotted time.

His Army and the French
Took 5000 Prisoners
on Meuse River
ARE STEADILY
DRIVING FOE BACK
Captured Cornay and Ad.
vance j in the Forest
Argonne

Washington, d. c., Oct. 9.--Americar
and French troops are steadily driving
the enemy from the scene of the des
perate struggles for Verdun, Genera
Pershing reported to-day in his com
munique for yesterday, announcing an
advance on both sides of the Meuse and
the capture Of more than 1000 prison.
ers during the day, He also reported
the capture of Cornay against stubborn
fighting in the continued advance in
the Argonne forest.
The communique follows:
Eve captured Cornay and against stub
born fighting continued our advance in
the Argonne forest. East Of the Meuse,
French and American troops serving
with the first army made brilliant at
tack in the vicinity Of the Bois des
Caures and the Bois dHaulnont. The
villages Of Consenvoye, Brshant, Hau-
mont and Beaumont have been occupied,
and the enemy has been driven well be.
yond them.
"0n both sides of the Meuse the
American troops with the French are
now pushing the enemy from the scene
Of the desperate struggles for Verdun.
The number Of prisoners taken as re.
suit of the days operations exceeds
5000. OF these 1900 were taken by
Ipaufh uuif1 "a 81 nf fba Mastaa
This brings the total number cap.
tured by this command in the last few
days to over four thousand. The French
also captured eighteen mortars of heavy
calibre and other material"

LOST BATTALION
NOW RECOVERING
Little Band of Americans Were Rescued
in Argonne Forest After Making
Valiant Stand.

With the American Forces Northwest
OF Verdun, Tuesday, Oct S. (By the
Associated Presst-Haggard from lack
OF sleep and nearly famished, the men
of the Lost" battalion rescued on Mon.
day morning, after having been sur
rounded for more than four days in the
Argonne forest, now are recovering from
their narrowing experience.
The men had subsisted partly on oak
leaves and many units were so depleted
by minor injuries and weakness that
wounded men had to take turns at guard
duty. Yet they cheered as they drove
back the German forces, which surround
ed them.
When they reached the American lines
they were white and exhausted, but
proud of their gallant stand. Major
Whittlessey was in command of the bat
TALON.
A group Of privates waiting to be tax
en- from field hospital which had been
temporarily established in a little ruined
church close behind the present lines
told of a second lieutenant who came
out with eighteen machine gun bullet
holes in his clothes, but without a
scratch. He had one bruise from a bull
let which had killed man behind him.
A machine gun fired at this lieutenant
from a distance Of thirty feet, cut away
his gas mask, but he was uniniured.
Shortly after midnight the rescue
party rushed on through the German
lines, breaking one enemy defense after
another and at last completed the res.
cue.
While fresh troops drove the Germans
in wild fight from the scene Of their
anticipated triumph, the tired heroes of
the battalion began to filter back to
their bases. Many Of the men were suf.
fering from variety Of wounds but
most of these injuries were not serious.
They were so exhausted and so nearly
starved that they could scarcely eat
when they were served with beef stew
and coffee. As the day advanced, how
ever, they improved considerably in vi.
tality.

HINDENBURG LINE
NO MORE IN WAY
Allies Have Free Course to Manevre
Against the German Army Forced
into the Open.

Paris, Oct. 9.--The Hindenburg line nc
longer bars the path of the allies. The
definite rupture of it was achieved on the
first day Of the fighting in the new de.
velopment towards the north of the great
battle now raging from the Escaut to the
Meuse
To Angl0-Saxon forces went the honor
OF storming the last remnants Of the ex.
| traordinary maze Of defenses, in some
places IL miles in depth, between Cam.
brai and st. Quentin. Apart from this
achievement the results of the day's
lighting were notable in that the enemy's
losses must have run into tens of thou
sands during the days fighting in the va
rious sectors of the long battle front In
addition important strategic obiectives
were obtained.
The allies now are in the open country
between Cambria and st. Quentin and
are threatening Bohsin, an important
junction of roads and railways, the
Americans last night having pushed with
in two miles of that place.
Once the masters of Bohain, the allies,
should they push towards Guise. would
take in the rear not only the I.aon-
Gobain massif, but the positions along
the river Serre, dubbed by the Germans
the Hunding line, which joins at Chau-
mont-Porcien the Brunhilde line running
along the Aisne.
The Germans were so confident in the
strength of the Cambrai-St. Quentin
front that they had neglected to organize
the rectangular position bounded on the
north by the line of Cambria and Landre-
cies and south by the Serre positions, of
which Guise approximately is the center.
AS result, all the German positions par
allel to the German frontier, starting in
the east and running as far as LaCapelle,
Vervines and Marie, risk being raked in.
The other arm of the trap which is
closing relentlessly on the Germans, that
operated by General Gouraud, has also
secured important results in the teeth of
desperate resistance. While attacking the
Snippe line frontally, General Gouraud
is turning it by marching on Machault
and Juniville, and has arrived close to
the former place. Consequently there is
every probability of his reaching the
Brunhilde line at the time when its east
ern continuation, the Hunding line, is in
danger.

AMERICANS TOOK cHARNY
And Helped French to Take Several
Other Towns.

With the American Army northwest
of Verdun, Tuesday, Oct. S.--l0:30 d m
(by the A. P).-Ameriean forces drove
forward today on the east side of the
Meuse and occupied Charny In company
with the French they captured the vii.
lagos Of Consenvoye, Brabant, Haumont
and Beaumont. They drove the enemy
well beyond these towns and are pushing
the enemy northward in a desperate
fight.
In today's operations more than 5000
prisoners were taken, of whom 500 were
captured by the French east of the
Meuse. During tho past few DAYS over
1000 prisoners and eighteen heavy NOR.
tars have been captured by the French.
In the operations today between Sc.
Etienna and 0rfeul, American units cap.
tured 400 prisoners and four Austrian
field guns There was fierce fighting IN
this area today, the Germans using ma
chine guns and few light field pieces
French and Americans hold st. Etienpe
and the Germans finally withdrew to the
northward.
The Germans attemnted counter at
tack in great force, but were repulsed
by the French and American heavy guns
The Germans later made vain attempt
TO reach the ravines south of Machauit
Observers report that the allied artillery
fire caused disorder among the enemy
forces which, at last accounts, were with
drawing, leaving rear guards to cover
their retirement.
There was an intermittent lombard.
ment of Somme-py, as well as cross
roads and areas back of the allied lines
today.

London, Oct. 0 (by the Associated
Pressl, l;l5 p. m.--The British advance
between Cambria and st. Quentin is pro-
.ceeding very well to-day all along the
line, These is not so much resistance by
the Germans as there was yesterday, due
probably to the enemy having retired
during the night.
In the American sector of this front.
the Germans are resisting very strongly.
The American losses, however, have not
been heavy. The total American casual
ties is less than half the number Of Ger.
