Marne began are being followed by
the enemy along the line of the hard

Won Eichhorn Tragedy Due
to Russ Hatred of Hun Yoke

PARIS. Aug. (Havas Agency
The murder of Field Marshal Won
Eichhorn, according to the comment
in the Paris newspapers. demonstrates
that, in spite of their legendary pacif-
ity, the Russian people cannot endure
the German yoke.
This crime. the papers say, coming
after the assassination of Count Won
Mirbach, the German ambassador to
Russia, shows that the return to die
tatorial methods of government in
Russia was bound to place bombs in
the hands of those men who for many
years knew no other argument Of op-
position. The newspapers insist that
Germany is reaping the harvest she
sowed.
"The situation in the east" says the
Gaulois, presents particularly stormy
omens. 1t is aggravated by the fact
that the allies are ready to begin
operations to deliver the Russian peo-
PIE and that the campaign in Siberia
will be coincident with operations on
the Murman coast. Who knows if
Germany will.not be obliged to recon
stftute the eastern front?"

The Austrias now have an army
corps under Gen. Won Pflan3er-

The Germans are now using high
explosive shells simultaneously with
gas shells. The high explosives are
designed to drown the pop" of the
gas projectiles, which the allies have
learned to distinguish from the others.
The percentage of gas casualties is
low as result Of the discovery of
the German trick. because the allies
generally anticipate attacks with gas.

Aerial activity was greatly increased

Attack Is Launched.
By the Associated Press.
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON
THE AIS N EN- A R N e F . n T,
Wednesday, July 31-American and
French troops launched an attack
Wednesday afternoon from Seringes
to Cierges, on the center of the Marine
front, for the purpose of straighten-
ing the line and demolishing barbed
wire entanglements which the Ger
mans have placed through the hills,
forests and open places.
The Germans Wednesday used new
gas having white fame and smoke.
The allies brought into action their
heavy artillery. their aviators and
patrols having reported mile after
mile of barbed' wire standing along
the German lines. The heavy guns
soon found the range of the entan-
elements. Some enemy infantry had
dug in behind the wires, but the lines
were for the most part manned by
machine gunners.
The German artillery reply consist
ed chiefly of shells from the IT'S and
loss. The machine guns, with the
heavier pieces indicated, were active
in an effort to prevent an allied ad-
vance.
Purpose of Assault.
The purpose of the American and
French attack, which is in north
easterly direction, probably is for the
purpose of outfianking the Meuniere
edged salient in the line between
Romingny and Cierges. This salient
was made more acute by the Amerl-
can advance north from Cierges to
Seringes.

IN EVICTION CASE
Machine Company Sues to

Over Property.
INv0KEs SALISBURY ACT

The Salisbury resolution was in
voked today against governmental
activity when Allen Mitchell & Co., In
eorporated, maehinists at 1920 Ohio
avenue northwest, fled suit in the Dis
trict Supreme Court to prevent the de-
molition of the building rented by the
corporation from the government,
which is preparing site for dormito-
ries for war workers.
The defendants named are Paul F.
Myers, custodian of site; T. H. Thomas
& Co., contractors for the wrecking Of
the buildings, and the United States
Housing Corporation.
Justice Hitz deferred until 3 o'clock
his decision on the application for
temporary injunction.
Has Rental Agreement.
Counsel explained to the court that
the plaintiff has rental agreement
with the custodian of site of the five
squares lying south of Pennsylvania
avenue between 18th and 18th streets
under which he was entitled to a thirty
day notice to quit
Under the Salisbury resolution, he
said. gang of men could not be sent
to remove the machinery, valued at
$50,DOO, at the expiration of the no
tice; but that the tenant is entitled
to proceedings in the Municipal
Court. where he may have an oppor-
tunity to interpose legal objections
to the eviction.
He declared that the representa-
threatened to put the company's ma
chinery in the street by demolishing
the building. The tenant had already
under construction building to
which to remove, but that about six
weeks is needed for it's completion.
Erecting Another Building.
Counsel for the plaintiff asserted
that they had no disposition to en-
barrass the government in it's activ-
ity, but thought their clients rights
would be jeopardized unless the court
interfered. The client would vacate
pleted, it was said, and the govern
ment might proceed with the wreck
ing of other buildings in the interval.
Counsel also pointed out that doubt
exists as to the light of the housing
corporation to use the ground in
question because the act provides
that only government lands may be
taken which are not otherwise dedi-
Gated for specific uses. 1t is claimed
the act authorizing the condemnation
of the five squares specified the use to
which the property should be put and
thereby the land became exempt un-
der the housing act.
