There was no announcement after

unofficially an important decision had
been reached.
Urgent appeals from the Allied gov
ernments for American approval oi
and cooperation in joint measures tc

Wilson for several days.
Until now, however, there has beer
no intimation he had changed his po

his military advisers that successful
military effort in Russia was moi
feasible.

COAL TO Be RATI0NED
Amount Used By HousehoIders
Will Be Controlled.
Purpose OF Government Is To Prevent
Threatened Shortage Next
Winter.

Washington, July 9.-Rationi1g OF
coal to householders is announced as
among the plans designed to prevent
a threatened shortage of coal next
winter.
Each domestic consumer will be al
lowed only as much coal as is found
scientifically necessary to heat his
house to 68 degrees provided every
conservation rule has been obeyed.
Sufficient for Comfort.
The allowance for each householder,
the announcement said, will be suffi.
cient for comfort, but "the thoughtless
and wasteful consumer who finds his
allowance gone before the end of the
winter, will have only himself to
thank IL he has no fuel with which to
heat his house."
The Administrations plan involves
a department of coal allotments in
connection with each local fuel ad
ministration office.
This system now has been complet
ed and will be put into operation al
once. Each order for coal will be
censored by comparison with the rat
ing of the house where the coal Ii
to be used. Surplus coal when ordered
will be refused.
To Prosecute vioIators.
All consumers who have obtained q
quantity focal In excess of theil
ailotments, or who by deceit or mis-
representation have violated any rules
or regulations Of the fuel administra
tion, will be prosecuted.
This system" said the administra
tion's statement, will be drastic ant
will introduce conditions new to the
country. 1t will be no more drastic
however, than conditions demand ir
the interest OF all concerned. No one
will be deprived Of coal actually
needed for heating, but no one will
be allowed fuel for waste or extrav
agance."

Make Successful Forward Plunge
In Somme Sector North
east of Amiens.
ITALIANS ALSO GAIN
Tension Along Entire West Front In
Antic ipation of Inauguration at
Any Moment of New German
Offensive.

London, July 9.--Again the Austria.
lians made a successful forward
plunge in the Somme sector northeast
of Amiens, where, with some Ameri-
can help, they carried out their bril-.
liant operation of last week.
The latest drive by the rangy men
from the antipodes resulted in what
is described by the British official
statement as a slight advance.
The aggregate of the ground gained
recently in this area has been con-
siderable, however, and the slow pro-
gress made has apparently affected a
considerable movement in the British
position along front of we'll toward
two. miles on both sides of the river
Somme.
French Have Artillery Duel.
While the British are thus fort'fy.
ing themselves against the expected
renewal of the German offensive in
one of the sectors where 1t Is consid-
cred quite likely to be launched, the
French are finding themselves active
ly engaged in an artillery duel on the
westerly side of the Marne salient.
With the help of the Americans
northwest of Chateau Thierry, the AL
lied line as a whole on this front las
already been strengthened and I'M
proved in anticipation of another en-
emy offensive.
The French are replying spiritedly
to the German bombardment, which is
marked in the sector defending -he
Villers Cotterets forest. This extensive
wooded area offers one of the most ira
portant obstacles to a renewed Ger
man advance, should it be attempted
in this region.
American Sectors Quiet.
Other artillery actions were report
ed southwark along the front to the
Marne, but these seem not to have af
fected the American sector notably
as the news dispatches from the Am
erican front report a comparatively
quiet night and similar easy condition
today.
There is tension all along the front
: however, in expectation of the Ger
mans breaking loose at any momen
with their new drive, and the all
scouts on the American side are in
creasingly busy in efforts to spot i'm
portant enemy movements.
