powerless to attact the attention of anyone but the Germans.
 As the days passed the Americans grew more and more emaciated and more and more bearded, but they nev- CT gave up hope. There was nothing but a grim determination to hold out until the last man was finished. There was not man in the battalion wounded or otherwise, hungry or starved, but secuted the idea of sur render Their ammunition was de- pleted to a point where the few ma chine guns in the outfit had but one belt of cartridges apiece and the rifle ammunition was running so short that they had received orders not to fire at anyone attacking until within such short range that his death or serious injury was almost inevitable.
 Major Whittlesay, who is a well known New Yorker, had his entire battalion behind him to a man, Opt. Leo Stromee of San Bernardino, Calif., told the Associated Press. His men jeered at the idea of surrender and the men who came out of the four day siege are united in declaring that they never would have given up.

 Officials were unable to understand the submarine attacks upon non-cOm batants and merchant ships within the last few days as well as the ap- parently wantOn and vengeful de struction of French and Belgian cities and towns by the retreating German hosts, knowing as the enemy must, that sure retribution will follow and that eventually Germany must pay heavily for this damage. Coming at a moment when the German chancel- Ter is suing for peace, this conduet by the military and navy is regard ed as justifying a belief that com plete Reorganization exists in the German government itself and that the military chiefs are acting in de fiance of the wishes of the civilian members of the government.

Germans, gradually spread out and widened its ranks. This allowed the Germans to infiltrate unseen behind the Americans and they fell directly into cunning trap which the Ger mans had set for them.
 The enemy had planned to catch the Americans in d hollow surrounded on all four sides by heights, the great est of which was a steep hill directly ahead. The Americans were not accus- toned to forest fighting and were filled with eagerness dashed into this hollow without stopping to think that the enemy might be awaiting them. The members of the battalion were at first checked by their own artillery barrage which had worked steadily forward. Nevertheless it had not worked as fast as the troops them selves and the battalion proceeded half way up the hill and there they waited for the barrage to pass in front of them. Then they discovered that the Germans on both sides had jointly flanked them and had closed in upon their rear.

Only with the greatest difficulty and with extreme caution could they move from place to place and keep guard against surprise attacks.
 The battalion had started with mea- ger rations expecting more to reach them later These, of course could no longer be transported to them. It was the greatest good fortune that they were fairly well supplied with water
 Nightly and daily, too, they sent back volunteers scouting parties, but if these reached the positions in the rear without being captured or killed they could not tell, for none ever re- turned.
 Daily American aviators searching vainly for them flew over head, but no outcry the men could make brought anything but a volley of shots and laughter from the Germans in front and behind and to the right and left of them.
 The beleaguered men discovered there were German machine gun nests all around them every fifteen feet or so and for a man to show himself ever so briefly was the signal for a sweeping rain of bullets. If a man made an unusual noise trench mortars pounded the vicinity viciously.
 Just for diversion the enemy made a practice of sweeping the whole ter rain-the hillside where the impro- vised trenches were located and the valley in which men crawled to get leaves and water-regularly and then irregularly with machine guns.
 Snipers were constantly on watch. German ITS pounded the locality and hand grenades also were hourly in evidence. The Americans had no rockets or other signals and they were

HOOPES URGES ALL
 TO FOLLOW EXAMPLE
 OF LOST BATTALION
PEOPLE OF ELEVENTH FEDERAL RESERVE DISTRICT MUST DO AS THESE BRAVE MEN AND BE WILLING TO SACRIFICE EVERY THING FOR WAR

DALLAS, Tex, Oct. 11.-Major Whittlesey's answer to the German de mand for surrender of the now fam ous Lost Battalion was abrupt and characteristically American. His an. swer was, Go to he'll"
 Major Whittlesey and his men caugt in a trap which the Germans had cunningly set for them, were sur rounded on all sides by the enemy and cut off from the rest of the troops For four days none of the battalion knew when help would come, or if it could come at all before it was toe late. They were long foodless and al most without ammunition, yet the same spirit which sent them plunging into the Argonne forest after the re treating Germans, upheld them at that moment
 None of us are foodless or with out money, but whether or not we are animated with the do or die spirit that has immortalized the Lost Bat talion" remains to be proven.
 Major Whittlesey did not hesitate a fraction of a.second in sending back his answer to the Germans head quarters. Shall we hesitate to give men like these the backing they've got to have? What right have we to expect them to fight for us even after food and ammunition is gone if we delay our support? Give them your answer now.

 The survivors saw the Otranto drifting helplessly toward the rocks as they pulled away toward the Irish coast. The destroyer barely had time to send a brief message when her wireless was carried away. The lit tie overloaded vessel had a rough trip to port.
 One of the American soldiers on board the Otranto pictured the scene when the vessels collided Soldiers lined the decks as though on parade and at the word of command stood at attention like statues. They never wavered, remaining there in military formation, exemplifying during the crisis the noblest traditions of the army for heroism and discipline. The same thing, said the soldier, ap- piled to the seamen.
