FOE LEAVES STORES
IN ALLIES HANDS

PARIS. Sept 12.-It will be weeks
before a complete inventory OF guns
rifles, ammunition and stores. cap
tured by the allies in their victorious
drive on the Montdidier-Amiens
front, can be made.
Each day squads OF soldiers de-
tailed to gather up the so-called
"spoiIs" add to the gigantic col
lection. The mass of the abandoned
material is the best proof of the ra-
pidity with which the enemy bolted
before the allied advance.
Find $4,000 Machine Guns.
Mfnenwerfers, charged and in posi-
ton for firing, were left by the
hundreds. From 10000 to 10000 ma
chine guns were abandoned by the
demoralized enemy, while on all
sides there were hundreds Of boxes
of ammunition. The heavy guns,
reached by the allied infantry before
the enemy could remove them, prob
ably will number more than 1,0Oc,
when the final total is reached.
But, it was not only guns, ammuni-
ton and prisoners that the allied
forces captured. Material of all sorts,
which the Germans had worked
weeks in bringing to the front, was
taken in wholesale lots. The re-
treating army of Won Hutier had at
tempted to save some OF this ma
teriaI, but when it found that the
retreat was not as fast as the al
lied advance. wagons and automobile
trucks, filled with stores were aban-
doned on the roads, which were So
congested that vehicle of any sort
only proved a hindrance instead OF an
aid to flight.
Valuable Booty Located.
The material. found on the roads,
at the edges of the fields, and in re-
captured villages, includes every
thing from front-line entanglements.
food, and field kitchens. to complete
equipment for field hospitals and
dressing stations.
In the abris and shell proofs,
which the Germans always dig deep
", great quantities OF these hospital
supplies were found. One abr!,
which proved to be a veritable sub
terranean channel, contained enough
of such supplies to equip any num-
Der of pharmacies. In it big boxes
of iodine, rolls upon rolls of cotton.
bandages, surgical instruments and
operating tables, were found. The
place evidently was a distributing de-
pot for dressing stations.
The Germans, so precipitate was
their flight, had no time to destroy
any OF the valuable supplies found
there.

him goodbye in New York.

Reprisal Attacks for Bomb

RED CROSS NURSE

Fortunately the Wounded
Patients Were Uninjured

With the American Army North
west of Verdun, Oct %, $50 P. M.
(By the Associated Press)-In retail
iation for the destruction wrought by
American bombing planes within the
enemy's lines recently, German avia-
tors last night raided the American
front and back areas in the largest
force since the American offensive
began on the Meuse and in the Az
gonne.
In addition to attacking the infan-
try the Germans bombed the region
around Clermont, Montfaucon and
Rarecourt. Four bombs were drop
ped near the American hospital in the
neighborhood of Rarecourt, one of
the bombs tearing down an outbuild-
ing, the glass ends of four former
French barracks, now used by the
Americans as hospital wards, were
shattered.
A Red Cross nurse, Margery Saw
yer, of Buffalo, N. Y, was blown
from her bed, but was not injured.
All the patients were taken to dug
outs, none of them being injured
Another Red Cross nurse, Mabel But
Ter of New Haven, Ct, was in the

but was not hurt Both of them i'm

FOCH MAY DICTATE
Washington Feels That he Ought
to Have the Say on Peace

Washington, Oct. 22-Germany
must come to military terms with
Marshal Foch. This was the out
standing feature of developments
here up to noon today, following the
receipt of the latest reply to Pres
ident Wilson. The next logical step
appeared to be an announcement
from Foch of the terms on which he
would consider an armistice possible.
Whether the President will request
Foch to make. this statement at this
time, is purely problematieal.
1t is believed in military circles
that Foch's minimum terms will in
clude Strassburg and Coblenz.
Meantime, public pressure from the
entire nation in the form of tele-
grams and editorial opinion, was
combined with the strongest demands
from Congress expressed by mem
bers individually that unconditional
surrender be made the early basis for
further negotiations.

DOGS OF WAR
CITED IN ORDERS
Saved Life of Soldiers at Battle of
OF the Marne

Frances dogs of war have been
cited in IN order of the day for con-
duct riyaling that of their human
masters at the second battle of the
Marne. 1wo Of these dogs saved the
life of d soldier who could not swim
by permitting him to lean upon them
as they SWAN the stream. The Off
cial order recognizing the value Of
the services of the dogs of the Fourth
French amy reads thus:
"Three of our dogs conducting
the EighVh Division have been cited
in an order of the day This divis-
ion fought on July Is on the north
bank of the Marine and was compel
led to fail back for a time despite its
heroic defence.
"The do" conductors did not re-
treat until after they had received
and transmitted to the commanding
officers the important message carried
by the degs. These dogs had estab-
lished and maintained communica-
ton day and night between the rear
army stations and the firing line un-
der a terrific bombardment. Their
feat was the more remarkable because
they were not familiar with the
ground upon which they were acting
as messengers.
"Their tasks accomplished, two of
the dog conductors were compelled
to cross the Marine, under the fire OF
the enemy The bridges had been
destroyed. One of the dog conduc-
tors swan the stream, his two dogs
following him. The other dog con-
due could not swim. He coupled his
two dogs by their leashes and urged
them into the water.
"The Lrave animals understood ant
! they permitted their master to rest
his weight upon them while they
swan to the south bank and safety.
"These dogs had been left by ordel
of General Gouraud in the battle zont
when the enemy attacked. They es
tablished and maintained lines O
communication with such success
that General Gouraud was able
Throughout the attack, to keep him
self fully informed as to the move
ment Of the German troops.
"The dogs were employed becaus
I the violence of the bombardmen
made it impossible to make use O
homing piaeons or to maintain tn
telephone and telegraph lines.

GERMAN ARMY STILL
IN THE7sGAME
Not Sufficiently Thrashaed ito Accept
Terms that Must be Enforced !

Not Sufficiently Thrashed ito Accept;
Terms that Must be Enforced 8
With the French Armies, Oct 22--1,
(By copyright cable by Paul Ayers
Rockwell to the Chicago News)-1
know little that is definite regarding
the true state of affairs in the inte
rior of Germany, but trustworthy in
formation indicates that the German
army is still capable of prolonged re-
sistance and possibly of again be-
ginning an offensive operation. The
Germans actually hold a front of 800
kilometres (192) miles from near the
North Sea to Verdun, having upon
the Western front, besides the sector
holding troops, thirty reserve divi-
sions.
Should the enemy succeed in get
ting his armies back upon the Meuse
line, where he possesses formidable
natural and man-made positions, and
for which line he is evidently headed
determinedly, the front will imme-
diately be shortened by 110 kilome-
tires (sixty-six miles,, placing a
third of the present line-holding di-
, visions in the reserve manoeuvre
mass. Additionally, the Germans
have in the interior camps about half
million of trained soldiers be-
longing to the 1920 class, who have
not yet been in action, or veterans
cured from wounds or illness. Thus
the enemy leaders may constitute a
! dangerous striking force.
The Germans surely desire peace
but it is my belief that they are not
sufficiently thrashed to accept the
terms we must enforce: upon then
if our victory is to be complete
Therefore the moment has not yet
arrived to relax effort or rest con.
fdent that peace is at hand.

WARNING TO ALL
MILK DEALERS
State Board of Health Issues a Note
of Caution

Burlington, Oct. 23-The State
Board of Health has issued the fol-
lowing warning:
Every possible carrier of influenza
infection must be eliminated. Pur-
suant TO this plan the Vermont State
Board of Health warns all milk deal
ers that if any person coming in con-
tact with the milk or the milk uten-
sils is suffering from influenza or any
of its complications they may be the
means of spreading the disease TO a
large number of people. Extreme
caution must therefore be used to
remove at once any person handling
the milk who shows any suspicious
signs of influenza. The law gives
the State Board of Health power to
forbid the removal of milk, cream,
butter, cheese and other food likely
to be consumed raw from the infect
ed premises, if in the opinion of the
Board it has been exposed to infec-
ton. If it is reported that any milk
dealer is negligent in this matter, the
Board intends to enforce this law fol
the protection of the public.
