Pershing's Narrative Of
The Capture Of Sedan

WASHINGTON, Nov. General P%ershing's official COM
munique. No. 10, dated November 7. evening, says:
''The First American army conu@ued its offensive, starting
with a precare0s footing on the east bank Of the Mouse, in a
region of unusual natural difficulties and defended by an enemy
rendered desperate by the knowledge that the heights north
of Verdun were vital to his plan. The fifth division and ma
tional guard troops from Wisconsin and Michigan, employed
in this operation, have slowly but steadily fought their way
throughout these days of continuous battle. In this region we
now hold Lion Devant- Dun, the heights overlooking Brande-
vile, three kilometers east of Harumont, Si1on- Fontaine farm,
and thence southeast to the old line.
THE Rainbow division and units of the first division seized
the heights south and southeast of Sedan and the suburbs of
that city lying on the west bank of the Meuse. The entire re
gion between the Meuse and the Bar has now been liberated
by the First American army in close cooperation with the
French Fourth army.
'In the Weevre the troops of our Second army have executed
. number of highly successful raids, entering the enemy's lines
and returning with fifty prisoners.
The number of guns Of all cahber taken by the First army
since November / now exceeds $50. A partial count of cap,
tured munitions and material shows more than 1000 machine
guns, over 5000 rifles, rs trench mortars, many anti tank guns,
several hundred thousand rounds of artillery ammunition,
nearly three million rounds of small arms ammunition, and
much other material.

ed itself in the final victories in Italy"

Historic Pennsylvania avenue,
the scene of many a turbulent
political celebration, became u

throng of humanity such as the

of the navy and army, the
crowds swept up the long

the Peace monument near the
Capitol building in a delirium
of JOY far surprising the ex-
pectation of even the most con-

The theaters had small

a school is soon to close. They
early exhausted the city's sup
ply of horns, bells and other
noise-makers and then began
to bring tin pans and wash
boilers forth to be battered into
bits by eager drummers. The
police marshaled every police
man from outlying districts,
and, although no restraint was
placed upon the crowd. every
effort was made to keep traffic
moving.

Situation AT Kiel Now
Menaces German Fleet

London, Nov. 7 0H55 F. M)-It is believed in naval circles
here that the German fleet was ordered out some time within
the last thirty six or forty eight hours to meet the British and
American fleets in a final gamble, and that the men, receiving
the order and knowing the hopelessness of such an undertak-
ing, mutinied.
Rebel sailors evidently seized control of the whole fleet at
KielL No German warships appeared in the North Sea.
Latest advices received via Copenhagen state that the revolt
is growing rapidly and already has swept part OF Holsteln.
Numerous garrisons of places along the Baltic have deserted
and are marching toward Kiel to join the revolution.
The red flag of rebellion has been hoisted over Kiel, which
is the empires greatest naval port; Warnemuende, Flensburg,
and Altoona, a suburb Of Hamburg. The arplane station at
Apenrade also is in rebel hands.
The military governor of Kiel is said to have agreed to re
lease all military and political prisoners.
(This would include many German olshevist sailors who
have instigated and participated in previous mutinies)
Freedom Of speech also has been granted all sailors.
German naval officers are free to 3.nain or leave, provided
they comply with the measures taken by the workmen's and
sailors council, which appears in full control.
The official German Wolff agency confirmed late today the
seriousness of the situation at Kiel. The statement added that
Hamburg, Germany's greatest commercial port, is in the throes
Of strikes and riots. A similar situation exists at Lubbock.
Strikes are expected to be called at Cuxhaven and on the
wharfs at W~ilhelmshaven, the big German Baltic naval port.

This proposition was not taken up
at the meeting of the street committee

future meeting as Independent BUSH
ness.
The committee met last night to hear
arguments on the petition of the COM
pany for financial relief. A paper ask
ing for a straight six-cent fare was
presented by e. Randolph Williams.
vice-president and general counsel Of
the company. lie explained that the
reason for asking the increase was that
the price Of everything in connection
with the conduct of tho business had
increased and that it is impossible to
give adequate and acceptable service
under the present rate OF income.
In stating the case Mr.. Williams pro-
duced figures and statistics which
showed clearly that the company was
making practically nothing" on it's
Investment. and that unless the city
came to its relief the service would
still further deteriorate. 7
For more than fifteen years the com
pany had been giving service at its
present figure. The cost of labor had
increased many fold, and the cost of
material had scared beyond the reach
of ordinary business Incomes. He
showed that the mna was receiv.
