Bernard Mcdonald Reported Off.

Bernard Mcdonald, son of John d.
Mcdonald Of 2926 Georgia avenue
northwest, was Officially reported
missing in action on July Is by the
War Department yesterday. Mrs. Nc
Donald said last night that she had
received three letters from her SON
bearing later dates than July Is. In the
first OF the three letters. dated July
Is, Bernard said that he had been
wounded in action In his last let
ter dated July 26, Bernard said that
he expected to return to his regiment
In two weeks.
There seems to be two possibilities
of mistake In the War Department
report. Either Bernard returned to
the. front two weeks after writing his
last letter and the report should have
read missing in. action on August
15'' instead OF July 10, or the report
should have read wounded in action
instead OF missing In action
Bernard Mcdonald was born in
Washington q years ago. Two of his
brothers are already In the service.
Demands. father served in the Ma
rine Corps from 1873 to 1883 and was
for two years stationed on the old

ised BY Authorities.

With the assurance from Mexico
authorities that there would be no
repetition of the outbreak on the

suited in the death of three Ameri-

With the American Army In
France. Aug. 2s.-The story of how
an American brigade, worn down
by sheer exhaustion. stormed and
captured the strongly fortified vii
Iage Of Ber1y-le-sar. south Of sois-
sons. In an exceptionally brilliant
a attack ON July Il, may now be told.
since General Pershing awarded the

adler General Buck. making -hrst
public announcement Of the fact
that Americans occupied the town.
Though our stormlng columns
beat down the German resistance
and passed through and beyond the
town, French colonisls ON their
right were held up by bitter op-
position and were unable to make
progress. Consequently, our men
were compelled to fall back from
the perilous salient formed by their
advance.
Correspondent Muzsled.
In accordance with the French
policy of Withholding the announce
ment Of the capture Of a town until
it is reasonably safe against an i'm
mediate counter attack, correspond
ents were not permitted to mention
that we had occupied Berry.
Several days later. when Scottish
units who replaced us went up ana

an Official statement
Berry, lying a few miles south OF
scissors, formed one Of the bastions
of support by which the crown prince
hoped to hold up the allied offensive
against the Marne salient while he
withdrew his mca AM supplies from
the great pocket late in Ju;y.
Probably no single position IN the
scissors region was defended by mere
machine guns. Our patrols had al
ready sounded out the forrI iatis ma
tare Of German defenses. American
units had been going througc terrific
fighting for several days. pushing on
under a hot sun through wheat fields
thick with machine nests and through
woods and underbrush until they were
SO exhausted II seemed they had
reached the limits Of human endur-
ance.
Word of Relief.
Finally word came that they would
be relieved on the night OF the 10th.
The news ran along the front line
where men were hugging shell holes
under a heavy bombardment They
couldn't restrain their cheers. But
two hours before the relief was
scheduled to take place came an or
der from the French corps COM
mander countermanding the previous
announcement. Instead of coming
back to their billets. the Americans
were ordered to attack Berry early
on the following morning
Despite bitter disappointment there
was not a murmur In our front lines.
The following morning, In the face
of gusts Of German artillery fire
Bucks Brigade pushed straight down
the slope with all the elationL Of
fresh troops just arriving on the bat

captured the village. which was their
objective. and even pushed on a lit

HORSES NEEDED
so WILSON CAN
GET TOCHURCH
Casless Day Gives White
House Some Peculiar
Worries.

President Wilson will heed the re-
quest of Fuel Administrator Garfield
that no gasoline be used sunday for
pleasure automobiles. The question
rs now whether or not he will walk
to church or be driven in the old
style-in a carriage behind a team
Of spanking horses.
II the President decides to 60 to St.
Johns Episcopal Church, where Q
pew is always reserved for the Chief
Executive, he will only have about
a block to walk. But IL he decides
to attend the services at the Central
Presbyterian Church. his usual llace
of worship. horses will be in de-
mand. And this raises another ques-
ton.
The White House has been without
the familiar carriage and horses of
the bygone days since Col. Roose-
velts administration. Officials yes
terday were wondering whether 1t
would be possible to bring out an
old coupe. which is somewhere I'm
the stables" and also whether its
appearance would be presentable
They also wondered II a team of
tractable horses-for no horse in
dSninstOn mas known Wnat u was
to draw a President since lsOs-could
be obtained.
Julius Wheeler to the Front.
Their chief worry-concerning a
driver-disappeared when someone
remembered julius Wheeler. For
Julius, once upon a time, was about
the best colored coachman the cap
ital ever saw in action. Tradition
says he could make a pair of r'aring
mustangs behave simply by telling
them in his own way they were to
have the honor OF having a Presi-
dent ride behind them. So when
Julius, who is now employed at the
home of Secretary Of the Treasury
McAdoo and Mrs. McAdoo. was seen
this afternoon. he promptly de-
clared that his services were at the
disposal Of the President for next
Sunday. should the latter express
the desire.
And L might add" julius is re-
ported to have said. with the COM
placency that indicates the height
of attainment in any profession,
that still possess all of the
equestrian skill that characterized
me before Mr.. Taft came into office
and took to motoring"

HOUSE PASSES
MAN-POWER ACT
SENATE TODAY
Practically as War Depart.
ment Drafted the
Measure.

The man-power bill, stripped by the
conferees OF the Senate and Housc
of every amendment Objectionable to
the War Department. was finally
passed by the House yesterday with
out a dissenting vote. Similar action
Is looked for in the Senate today, so
that the signature of the President
wiz make the bill law by Saturday.
In the form in which the bill was
reported by the conferees to the
House all the amendments which
might have operated to handicap the
Provost Marshal General in calling
the men of IS to Is into Immediate
service were eliminated The ant +.
strike amendment, the amendment for
the drafting of resident aliens. thu
Penrose amendment excusing the
registrants from claiming exemption,
and the France amendment for the
wearing of badges of those exempted
for agricultural or Industrial pursuits
were all taken out.
Amendments which stay in the. bill
are those which permit officers to
obtain their uniforms from the gov.
ernment at cost, the provision for
the technical education OF soldiers,
and the provision that the wives Of
SOtulefS ana sailors SnaH not be dis
qualified from accepting government
positions. - =
Soldiers and Public Lands.
Tho section in the bill providing
that all the soldiers may make en-
try on public lands under the home
stead act also provoked considera ble
discussion. Representative Ferris, of
Oklahoma, chairman of the Public
Lands Committee. said the section
was loosely drawn and that it would
merely prove fat piekines" for ali
the claims attorneys in the United
States.
Il don't want to be in the position
of blocking the adoption of the con-
ference report on the BILL Mr..
Ferris said. This privilege extend
ed to 100000 men would call for
more land than the government now
owns"
Mr.. Ferris said that he will make II
his business at once to put through
Congress supplementary act which
will prevent the soldiers from being
the victims of such attorneys.
