Enemy Again Driven Back.

With nlaguifcent Raliontry British
and French forces took full advantage
OF the situation. The enemy was hurled
of Chalmont Butte in a dashing assault
by Franco British units, and TO the eas
the French also hammered at his line
To-night's report shows that II was
made untenablc and that the French
and British have made rapid progress in
exploiting the success
The fact that 500 prisoners were taken
in one part OF the action indicated that
the retreat was more pre- e,ipitate than
L has been for the last rev days. This
was viewed as further evidence that
the enemy was Withdrawing under pres
sure, and gave new hope that his lines
along the Nesle would not be fully pre-
pared when the Allies arrive Before
them.
Official reports TO the War Depart
ment were belsted and stan officers re-
celved eagerly the official statements car
ried by the press.
Aside from the gains In territory made
in the allied counter drives officers be-
lieve IL has already served its greatest
purpose in proving to the German army
that II is not iuvinCihle. The enemy
Ids been foilei Ii rs objectives first in
his thrusts toward Rheims. organized
with all the skill and unsparing effort
of which he was capable, and then in
his effort to hold his gains against
counter assault.
Twice ne has tried to stem the tide
OF advance that had set against him,
and twice he has failed. His best troops
have been thrown in Iecklessly and
fought with utter heroism withoL. avail.
The crushing force OF the allied effort
continued and compelled further retreat
Best Troops Not Good Enough.
1t is a new lesson for the German
army, many officers say. There is no
thought that It will sap the morale OF
the enemy forces, but Altering back
through the ighting men TO the people
at home will go new conception, II is
said-a feeling that Germany's best Is
not sufficient for the task II has Set
Itself. What the dissemination OF that
feeling may mean no one can tell.
Secretary Baker had received no an
swer to-day TO his recent Instructions TO
Gen. Pershing 10 expedite casualties.
The cause OF the delay Is not known
here, although II is obvious that the
names OF men killed. wounded or miss
ing are not coming through on a scale
In any way proportionate to the num-
bers engaged or the terrific nature OF
the battles they have fought. The Or
ders that they be sent forward from
France without delay are mandatory.
So far as known no objection has been
made by Gen. Pershing and the delay in
execution Of the plan may be due to
mechanical difficulties OF assembling
and transmitting the lists.

ANNA HELD, NOTED
ACTRESS, is DEAD

New York, Aug. l2.-Anna Held
the actress, died here late today
after an illness of several months.
Miss Held had been i'll since April
of rare malady known as myelo.
ma. disintegration OF the spinal
marrow, and her condition was re-
ported several times as critical. She
rallied repeatedly, however, and un-
til attacked by pneumonia a Few
weeks ago, was regarded as on the
road to recovery. Her physicians
said that only her remarkable will
power had prevented her from sue
cumbing long ago.
Anna Held was born in Paris in
1873 of Polish mother and a
French father. Upon the death OF her
father the family moved to Lon
don, where for two years PRIOR to
going upon the stage, Anna was a
street singer. When 10 years old
Miss Held returned to Paris after
touring Holland and other countries
with a comedy company and after
that appeared in all the European
capitals. winning renown by reason
of her beauty and the daring mag
nihcence of her gowns.
When she came to New York III
1896 the American public's desire to
see and hear the chic Parisienne had
been whetted by stories of her beau
ty, of the perfection of her COM
plexion, which she was reported as
sustaining by means OF daily milk
baths, and the charm of French
concert hall song, won't You Come
and Play Wiz Me p
For more than ten years Miss
Held was in a musical comedy on
the American stage nearly every
wear, appearing part of that time as
one of the stars in plays produced
by Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. Miss Held
subsequently was married to Mr..
Ziegfeld, but after several years they
separated. A daughter, Lame Held,
now q years old, born of a pre-
vious marriage, is now on the stage.

LONDON, Aug. IA marked
change is taking place in German
military policy, says the military
critic of the Times. He believes that
during the allied victories of the
last month German strategy was
clearly in a TRANSITIONAL stage from
the ideas with which Ludendorff be-
gan the March offensive to ideas
whose nature is not yet revealed and
which can only be conjectured.'
THE successful allied raids on the
Italian front" he continues ARE an
example of the way these conjcctures
are being tested. Are the Germans
strengthening the Italian front with
a view to an offensive, or is there
a backward movement on the ltal-
ian front, and what is its explana-
ton? Doubtless these raids have
enabled the allied staff to answer
these and other questions"

Chicago, Aug. l3.-Active buying
forced a material advance today in
the corn market. Continued hot
weather and scantiness of moisture
formed the chief incentive to pur-
chase. Opening prices, which ranged
from IA cent Off to | cent up,
with Sept. l.62 to l,63 3-4 and Oc-
tober 1853 3-4 to l.64 IA, were fol-
lowed by decided gains in both OF
these months. The August delivery
was relatively weak.
Oats were mainly influenced by
the strength of corn. After opening
unchanged to 5-8 cent higher, with
Sept. 50 to SO IA, the market reacted
somewhat, but then took fresh up
ward swing.
Provisions showed but little life.
