ADMIT LOSS OF EPEHY

Berlin, September 19.-(Via London.) After fluctuating fighting on the front between Gouzeaucourt and Hargi- court yesterday, says today's war of fee, report, the towns of Epehy and
 Ronssoy remained in the enemy $ hands.
 Further south the German positions
 were penetrated by the Australians. but after hard fighting the latter were brought to a halt west of Beliicourt and Bellenglise.
 The statement reads: ''Northeast of Bixschoote we cleared a portion of the trenches which re- mained to the enemy in the fighting of September g, and took 136 Belgian prisoners There has been lively re-

RAIN INTERPRETERS

With the American Army on the Lor- raine Front, September 19. 6. p. m--(By the Associated Press.) )--Clouds, from which rain poured most of the time. covered the sector north of St. Mihiel like a blanket today. forcing the allied airmen to cease their punishment of the Germans.
 Patrols were active, carrying out ,op- erations far beyond the line and oc-- casionally the enemy's artillery fired viciously and blindly into the sector.
 The French and American guns con tinued throughout the day their bom- bardments of fixed targets but with less vigor than usual

FRENCH FIGHT WAY FORWARD

With the French Army in France, Sep- tember -(Reuters. .)-With dogged tena- city and unflagging devotion the French troops are fighting their way foot by foot across the Malmaison plateau. which is the key to the Chemin- des- Danes, Laon and the St. Gobain rnassif.
 No sooner has one position been taken than there is another to be attacked and the troops are worked to their last ounce of effort. Some divisions have been en- gaded from 17 to IS days with the Ger mans fighting desperately to maintain their ground. One position had to be taken four times before the enemy aban- doned it.
 The enemy machine gunners were left in the advance posts arter the main body retreated and fought bravely to the last man, knowing their comrades had left them to their fate

British advanced on either side and got it in a pocket.
 At Ronssoy the British got through easily.
 Lempire was captured after a hard battle. The enemy south of Villers Guislain contested the British advance fiercely and the losses to the defending forces here were tremendous.
 further British advance was assisted by an oval invasion by the way of ma- chine gun barrages. Two hundred and fifty rapid firers were brought up and concentrated. These guns opened a ter rifle barrage. during which each one or them pumped 25,000 rounds of ammuni- tion into the German defenses. Tho enemy was absolutely overwhelmed. In one small place, for example, 300 dead later were found.
 In Gauche wood the Germans had four British tanks which they had previously captured. These tanks were used as ma chine gun Actresses and held out for hours before taken.
 Later in the afternoon the Germans opened a heavy attack between Havrin- court and Villers- -Guislain, with the Sixth German division. The attack suc- ceeded in rolling the British back some what on the left, but this ground was quickly regained.

FRENCH FORCES HAVE ADVANCED TO BENAY, EAST OF ST. QUENTIN
toontinued from Page One,

and each of the garrisons was a legion unto itself. Between Holnon and Fres- noy-le-Petit were three litle patches of woods; these fairly bristled with ma chine guns. They were finally cleared out, but 1t was a desperate adventure for those doughty English troops who went charging through them amidst a hale of bullets and combed the occupants into silence.
 The eastern part of Fresnoy was still in the hands of the enemy this morn ing, with the British holding the west ern section and pressing the defenders hard.
 To the north in center of the battle line the Australians pushed through to their final objectives. and even beyond in some places. with their accustomed thoroughness and disregard for their personal fate. The overseas men work ed round those villages which were strongly held and employed a heavy smoke barrage with great success.
 Prisoners declare that because of this smoke screen they never knew where the Australians were going to strike next, and as a result there was more or less confusion among the Germans opposite them.
 HARD FIGHTING v
 Le yerguier and villeret were taken without much trouble. About Hargieourt and Templeux- e-Gurard, however, there was hard fighting. There, are numerous uuarries in this section and these were filled with German machine gunners, who had to be disposed of before the ad- vance could proceed. The delay was not great. The rangy Australians were about and amongst the enemy like a whirlwind, and he was lucky German who lived to take the long trail back to the prison camp.
 The Australians had to negotiate three ridges here, and on the last or tnese which overlooked the Hindenburg line the Germans made determined last ditch" stand.
 Savage work characterized the fighting here. but the Germans were no match for the hard hitting customers and were forced to fall back little by little until they reached the outpost system to the TIindenburg line. This defense was atrongly wired and heavily held. Back of it on the eastern side of the canal, lay the main Hindenburg line of fortifica- tions.
 NO PAUSE IN ADVANCE
 Against this outpost line the Austra- Hans advanced from their ridge without pause and charged into the barbed wire. Tbe Germans were killed, captured or driven back in flight. The overseas men took twice as many prisoners as they had casualties.
 Not only was the outpost line taken over. but in some places the British went further into Hunland than they hao been before at this point since the wal began.
 On the left flank PeizSere was overrun by English troops in the first rush. Five strong German points were oyerlooked, however, and these caused no end or aro,,h1e with their machine guns for a long time until attention finally was cen tered on them and they were obliterated.
 At Epehy, where the renowned German Alpine troops were holding, a desperate battle was waged throughout the day Epehy could not be taken until after long and heavy bombardment, which greatly weakened the defenses Then>the

the week the hope of peace seemed to bring considerable pressure against prices, particularly from Wall street and western sources. This selling was be- lieved to be based upon a belief that while peace might cause a temporary ad- vance it would be followed by declining prices, while the sellers were also talk ing material increase in acreage this spring, and a possibility that continued delays in distribution would make it easier to deal with remaining old crop holders. The few notices issued against January contracts were quickly stopped, and very little southern selling has been reported around the local ring. Discus sion as to the effects of fuel scarcity has continued. but traders find it difficult to estimate the possible curtailment of pro- duction. and it is claimed that the post ton of goods has strengthened as to prices. The census report on ginning prior to January 16 showed rather a larger outturn than expected, but failed to create any fresh sentiment or to ma terially influence the market. Japanese interests were credited with taking up cotton on January contracts and are said to be shipping some cotton from the local stock

Weekly Cotton Review

New York, January 25.-The cotton market was nervous and irregular dur
 ing the past week. Trading was not par ticularly active, but fluctuations were broad at times. and their irergularity was accompanied by the expression of conflicting opinions regarding the prob- able effect of peace on cotton values. the outlook for the coming crop, and the possibility of price fixing. The an- nouncement early in the week that the President had asked for legislation au- thorzing him to fix prices on all com modities essential to the conduct of the war evidently caused a good deal of ner- vousness and was followed by the lldui- dation of contracts bought on the rally toward the end of last week. This de- cline was checked by renewal Of trade buying, accompanied by reports that do- nestle spinners were calling cotton and fixing prices, while there was also cov- ering on the continued absence of spot pressure. and continued drouth complaints from the southwest. Toward the end O.

LETTER NOT PUBLISHED

Governor Henderson permitted news paper correspondents to read the letter. but did not release the text for publica- ton.
 MT. Musgrove declared that certain persons had accused the prohibtionists of making prohibition perpetual issue in Alabama politics, and that by his offer 1t would be shown the prohibition ists were willing to remove the issue from politics forever and forever. He also declared that America now Is call- ing upon all citizens to show their man hood as never before. and that the adop- tion of the national amendment would do more than any other agency to create the manhood which is necessary to carry on the present struggle. He urged the governor to call the legislature into ex- traordinary session in order that the issue might be disposed of for good.
 Mir. Musgrove maintained that the financial burden would be removed now that individuals were willing to assume every penny of the expense and declared that he would guarantee that no money would be taken from the treasury as a result of the extra session.
 ASSUMES RESPONSIBILITY
 He emphasized that the offer came from himself and no other and declared that he had made it without suggestion from other prohibitionists.
 After the letter had been read, Gov ernor Henderson was asked if there was
