To- night the sky is dotted with the flashes of exploding shells, while the roar of the barrage and counter barrage must he audible almost to Paris. In the back areas shells are falling behind the hnCs but not so frequently as at many times previously.

Republican A. P. Leased Wire1

CHICAGO, Aug. 29-Federal Judge K. NJ. Landis today after denying new trial to the 100 I. w. w. leaders recently found guilty of anti-war con- spiracy, later granted three of the de- fendants continuances of their cases and announced that the remaining 97 will not be sentenced until tomorrow afternoon.
 Thls decision was reached only after Judge Landis had listened to the indi- vidual story of each defendant. He was visibly affected by the stories of some and showed every inclination to give each defendant the benefit of any doubt that might exist.
 Nearly three and a half hours were occupied with the speeches of the de- fendants and at the end of this time Judge Landis announced that so much new matter had been introduced that he wished time to consider the new evidence.
 Verdict Mistake Says Haywood
 William D. C"Big BilI") Haywood secretary treasurer of the I. ". w., was one of the last to step before the bar of justice Cool and collected, he said:
 T feel that the verdict in this case is one of the greatest mistakes ever perpetrated on a court of justice. No member of the I. w. W. is guilty of any act against the United States. If released there is nothing I could do but to continue to uphold the I. W. w. constitution as I have done in the past"
 Attorney Vanderveer entered a spe- cial plea in behalf of J. A. Mcdonald, editor of Industrial Worker of Seattle, Wash, who is suffering from tubercu- losis. MT. Vanderveer recommended that some provision be made for Me Donald because of his condition. Would Take Friends Sentence Anson E. Soper of Astoria, Ore, when called before the court, offered to take upon himself the sentence of his friend, Norvel G. Marlatt, if Judge Landis would permit the latter to re- turn to his wife and babies T am not he said. "a man with a hard face and soft hands, as the pros ecutor said. I have worked for 3s years in essential industries"
 Later. when Joe Usapiet was called Judge Landis called Marlatt and told him and Usapiet that they were grant ed continuance until the first Mon- day of>November because of extenuat. ing circumstances.

 The Germans know that when the Franco American forces reach that they will be able to obtain observation which will permit the gunners to pick out their targets on the long hill line that lies between the plateau and the Vesle valley and that his gun positions on this hill, facing artillery fire from the south. southeast and west, will have to be relinquished.
