PARIS. Oct. 15.-Marshal Foch is driving a formidable wedge between the German bases Of Bruges and Ghent, in Belgium, and Lille in France. The effective manner in which King Albert carried out his attack Monday has further widened the wedge, which threatens to split the German forces unless the enemy falls back speedily on a wide front.
 The British army of General Plumer on the right wing of the allied ad- vance now is only three miles from the important railway junction of Courtrai OAce the allies master the line Wervicq- q-Menin-Courtrai. which probably will be only a matter of a few hours, the German situation at Lille will be most perilous and that at Ghent not much better
 The French capture of Roulers is a serious loss to the Germans. Although the Belgian railway system is dense enough to provide alternative routes to a certain extent the allied entrance into Roulers on the first day of the offensive is bound to affect the Ger man communication system most un- favorably.

Americans Gain Step at Time Ln
 FerOciOus Fighting Vest Of Mouse

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES NORTH OF THE ARGONNE, Oct. I5. - (Reuter's) - Another step be- yond the Kriemhilde defenses was taken yesterday by the Americans when they moved their line up to St. Georges and Landres-St. Georges, northwest of Romagne. It was the third phase of General Pershing's op- erations between the Mouse and the Argonne forest.
 The attack began early on Monday morning, but it was not until late in the day that any material progress was made. Almost the entire day was taken up in a bitter struggle through gas filled woods and over the shell swept tops of hills that sep arated the Americans from the Ger mans entrenched behind wire en' tanslements.
 To the east of the Mouse the lire moved forward to Sivry and Magenta farm, but just to the west of the river little advance was registered. Less effort was made there because the

INFLUENZA IS STEADILY INCREASING
Has Spread to Every State in Union; Check in University Camps More Than Offset by Ravages Among Civilians
lRv Review Leased Wire,

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-Spanish influenza now has reached epidemic proportions in practically every state in the country. In spite of all efforts by federal. state and local authorities, the disease has spread rapidly and the death toll has been high in most parts of the nation.
 In army camps the epidemc is sub siding, further decrease in the num- Der of new cases being noted today at the office of the surgeon general of the army
 Reports made public tonight by the public health service show that out side of Massachusetts the epidemic is severe throughout New England. No. 9 single state east of the Mis- sissippi is clear of the disease and in most of the coast states from Maine to Florida conditions are seri- GUS.
 The number of cases reported also is increasing in Oregon. Washington and California. while the malady has appeared in all mountain states and is epidemic in most of them. Min nesota is the only west central state reporting the disease stationary, while influenza is epidemic in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin and Illinois. It is also epidemic in the southern states as well as in Okla homa and Arkansas.
 In warcrowded District of Colum- bia the epidemic continues unabated. As a further precautionary measure fhp fraaSu and iDferi0r danartmaufS today issued orders that no new en- ployes of those departments be brought to Washington until further notice.
 The fuel administration, at the sug- gestion of the public health service, also announced today that as far as possible all engagements and ap- pointments for conferences with out of-town persons during the next two weeks will be cancelled.

 In front of their barbed wire de lenses, however, the Germans be- trayed an unusual nervousness. In- stead of the ordinary we'll controlled artillery fire their artillery exploded into a barage of fire on the slightest excuse. Instead of these barages covering any counter offensive they were nothing more than a defensive move and they were laid down at the least indication of activity on the part of their assailants. One of the most stubbornly held positions was in the Chatillon Woods. which GOV cred the high hill south of ROmagne. The Americans worked their way around the sides of this great natural obstacle forming one of the most i'm portant links in the Kriemhilde line. Time and again they were thrown back until late in the day. Then, GOV cred by their own artillery. they were able to gain its summit and to dom- mate the country beyond. Patrols now are we'll in the Bantheville woods. Approximately. 1000 prison CTS were sent back.

problem was to straighten the line further west, where it joins that of the French near Grand Pre-.
 It is at Romagne that the Kriem- bilde positions swing in a northwest erly direction and there the forces of General Won Gallwitz fought valiant ly to hold back the Americans. New guard divisions were brought up at that part of the line and every de- vice of the Teutonic fighting machine was used to smash the pressure.
 Except for brief period in the lat ter part of the day. when the visi- bility slightly improved. it was bat tla without adequate observation for either side. Clouds without a break covered the field throughout the day and during much of the time a drizzling rain was falling.
 The condition. coupled with a lack of wind made the time for gas at tacks almost ideal and the Germans took full advantage of the weather. Every wood and ravine through which the Americans moved was a flood of lethal and mustard gases. supple mented with a liberal fire of high ex'

presidents peace terms and seeking an immediate armistice.
 It was said that at a recent meeting of the military leaders and the heads of the parties in the reichstag, Won Hindenburg boldly declared that Ger many must have peace at once on the best terms she could get. He said the armies no longer had the necessary munitions and materials to continue the struggle, nor was there any source of supplies so far as he was aware.
 In the light of this situation, the field marshal said he felt the time had come to try first for an armistice and then for peace and he urged that this could be put in the light of a concession to the demands of the so- cialists and pacifists in Germany. Prince Maxililian, the chancellor, is

reported to have strongly opposed such a course, but imperial approval was given Won Hindenburg's plan and the request for peace followed.
 No indication has been given as to when replies will be made by Presi- dent Wilson to the Austrian and Turk ish appeals for peace. It is understood that there is no ground for the appre- hension which has arisen in Austria that the president would refuse to re- ply to Won Burians appeal because of the autocratic character of the Austri- an government It was said that this might well figure in final peace pro posal, but would not operate to pre- vent the consideration of an armistice which Austria seeks.
 The same is true of the Turkish ap- peal.

Tn the face of the most stubborn re- sistance conceivable. including literal ly hundreds of machine gun nests. the Americans advanced again today and widened the breach in the Kriemhilde line.

 The days fighting began early when the center moved forward and encir- cled the difficult position at hill 2SS. from which a machine gun fire. esti- mated as coming from at least 200 guns concealed in the adjacent woods. was poured into the Americans. The patrols pushed forward despite the enemy opposition into the Banthe- vile woods.

They also encountered vast quantities of wire which had not been sufficient ly cut by the artillery and faced an enfilading fire from both sides.

 Considering the chance that sup scribers are delaying payments of the first 10 per cent installment and that consequently their pledges do not show in the official figures, campaign managers today urged that bond buy CTS pay down their 10 per cent install ment immediately This will have the effect of relieving banks of the tre- mendous task of tabulating these pay ments in the rush of the last hours this week and will show the nation on Sat urday, the final day, precisely how big a job is cut out for it that day. There is the belief, also, among some managers that too many people are waiting until late in the week before increasing their subscriptions or enter ing new pledges. By doing this. it was pointed out, they will serve to create unnecessarily long lines of pros pective buyers at bank windows, O. to take the time of workers which would be devoted better to stirring out the persons who may have escaped earlier solicitations.
