Vice Admiral Simms reported the
torpedo struck on the starboard side,
flooded a fire room, but he did not
state the extent of the damage. Navy

able to reach port under her own
power, she was not badly damaged.

Thrilling Stories Told Of >
Heroic Deeds of Canadians
BY Canadian Press.

With the Canadian Forces in the
Field, Sept 8.--A gallant story is
told of two signallers of a Manitoba
field battery which has fought since
the battle Of the Ypres salient in 1916,
through the Somme, Vimy Ridge,
Lens, Hill 20, Passchendaele and the
recent battle. They are churns, one
coming from London and the other
from Winnipeg. Just before the
opening of an important operation
they discovered the telephone line
was down between the battery and
headquarters. Although the enemy
was "strafing' they went to work to
find and repair the break. This done,
they discovered that other batteries
on the line were cut off and proceed
ed to repair the whole line, just get
ting it into commission as zero"

The colonel of a Canadian Scottish
battalion, who, when his unit was in
an exceedingly tight place last Mon

FORCES HOSTILE

TAKING Up ARMS
Russian Capital EncirCIed b,
Cossacks, Georgians,
CzeChs and Peasants in
Revolt Against Soviet.

Amsterdam, Sept. Subscribing
the formidable hostile forces en-
circling the bolsheviki, the Cologne
Gazette's correspondent at Petro-
grad says in the Don region there
are $4,000 Cossacks. On the other
side of the Caucasus the Georgians
are in Tiflis and the mountain people
are in revolt agains. the bolsheviki.
The northern part of the eastern
front is defended by $4,000 to 10000
Czechs and Cossacks and here coun-
ter revolutions of the white guards
and peasants are reported. Serious
peasant disturbances have broken out
southwest of Perm. The bolsheviki,
after an initial success, have again
lost Syzran, where the Siberian rail-
way crosses the Volga. East of Sa.
ratoff the bolsheviki are fighting the
Cossacks.
Between the Volga and Urals, the
Czecho-Slovak movement is over
shadowed by the Russian anti-bol-
sheviki movement. In the interior,
according to the correspondent, con-
tinued plots are evoking great
measure of counter-terrorism.
Bolshevik Front collapses.
Vladivostok, Sept. S.--The Japan
ese military staff has been informed
that the Czecho-Slovaks hold the rail-
way from Olovyanna to Penza.
1t is now apparent that the unex-
pected climax in the. Czecho-Slovak
break through was due partly to the
allied advance toward khabarovsk,
which caused the transfer of large
bolshevik force from Baikal toward
Khabarovsk and the weakened front
collapsed under the Czech pressure
from the west and General Semenoff's S
pressure from the west.
The opportunity is now presented
of the allies taking advantage of the
strategical points in the hands of the
Czechs to move into the heart Of
Russia, where considerable reinforce
ments from loyal Russian elements
are certain, and striking a stunning
blow at Germany. 1t is believed Ger

Toxic, Sept. St is semi-officially

advanced to the Onon river. The
enemy destroyed the railway bridge
at Bolja and retreated northward in
the direction of Alexandrozayod. The
enemy left behind 900 cars near
Bolja.
1t is reported that bolshevik ennis
sary has left Olonayanna for the pur-
pose of negotiating with General
Semenoff. Since the allied troops
were sent to the maritime province
the Japanese actually have reached
the fort of the Austro-German pris-
oners
The bolshevik troops are reported
to be. greatly demoralized and hav-

ALLIES CUT
BIG GAPS IN
FOES LINES
British Within Six Miles of st.
Quentin; French Aiming
To 0utf !ank La Fere
And LaOn.
BY Associated Press.

The British and French con.
tinue to cut their way into the
German lines on the lower
part of the battle line in
France.
Notwithstanding the bad
weather, the British here en-.
croached upon Cambria and
st. Quentin, while farther
south the French armies are
pressing toward La Fere and
Laon.
Between the Aisne and the Vesle
rivers, where the Americans are with
the French, ground has been gained.
British Advance Rapid.
The British now are standing at
Villeveque, six miles from St. Quen-
tin, having carried ont all advance
over a ten-mile front on the general
line of Epefy, Hesbecourt and Yer.
mand. To the north the greater
part of Havrincourt wood, German
strong point barring the way to Cam
brai, has been captured. .a..-..
So rapid has been the British ad-
vance in this section they are in po-
sitions they held before the German
drive last March. The Germans are
offering stout resistance.
The French are working around the
st. Gobain forest north of Scissors
in the movement that aims at the out
fanking Of La Fere and Laon and
all the German positions east of this
region. They have reached the out
skirts of the village of Servais, on
the northern edge of the forest and
2 IL miles from La Fere, while a
short distance to the north they have
taken the village of Nemesis, on the
St. Quentin canal. This latter gain
brings the French within little more
than eight miles from St. Quentin.
Germans Fighting Hard.
North of the Aisne near Scissors
the Germans are fighting hard, realiz-
ing that if the French gain much,
the move, taken in conjunction with
the maneuver in progress around the
St! Gobain forest will place the en-
tire German defense line eastward
toward Rheims in critical position.
Near Laffaux and north of Celles-
sur-Aisne the Germans have delivered
strong counter attacks. but the
French everywhere have maintained
their ground.
The Germans also are reacting
somewhat south of Ypres. especially
in the region of Ploegsteert, where
the British are threatening the recap
ture of Armentieres.
Counter offensive maneuvers here
and east of Wulverhegm were broken
up by the British.
That further big events are on the
program of the entente allies in the
prosecution of the war is indicated
by the fact that Newton D. Baker, the
American secretary of war, is again
in France for a war conference

Riding Two Horses in Speech
On Prussian Franchise
Reform, Chancellor
Suffers Fall.

Copenhagen, Sept. S.-The attempt
OF the imperial German chancellor
Count Won Hertling, to ride two
horses simultaneously in his house
of lords speech recently appears to
have resulted in his falling between
them. That portion OF the press ia
voring real Prussiafi franchise re-
form i, disappointed and disgruntled
by the chancellor's ambiguous warn-
ing that the lords could avoid too
far-reaching concessions by accept
ing reform measures now, and the
conservative press is up in arms over
his appeal for acceptance of reforms
as protection and maintenance OF
the crown and dynasty"
The agrarian Deutche Tages lei
tung calls Hertling "the Prussian
monarch's grave digger"
The Kreuz Zeitting attacks Won
Hertling for minimizing the crowns
deserts and exaggerating the social
lists services, and darkly warns him
that monarchies do not crumble be-
cause they resist the unjustifed de-
mands of the masses, but because
they "let themselves be forced down
to the dangerous level of compro-
misses"
The pan-German Deutsche Zeitung
declares that equal suffrage would be
an undisguised surrender to the anti
monarchists' will, which would en-
danger the dynasty and the crown.
So far as has been noted. only Ger
mania, Won Hertling's organ, is sat-
ished with his speech.

WINTER FAMINE
BoIshevik Commission Tells
Them to Shoulder Rifles
And Take Grain Away
From Peasants.

Stockholm, Sept. 8.-The Ameri-
can refugees from Moscow reached
Stockholm today, II days after their
departure from the bolshevik capital
In Finland the Americans were i'm:
pressed by the orderly conditions.
When the Americans left Russia,
they say, -four sold at $1.25 a pound,
and was seldom obtainable at any
price. Sugar, also scarce, sold at So
pound.
The refugees say that starvation
had become so prevalent in Moscow
that late in August the food COM
mission was forced to remove all
regulations on citizens and permits
ted them to enter the city with so
pounds of food each. This step, it
was asserted, was an admission of the
absolute failure of the food commits
sion which had no bread and was
forced through the pressure Of the
rebelling citizens to let the people
take the food supply into their own
hands.
Wheat Not to be Had.
Wheat and other grains were not
available, as the peasants in the grain
sections, still under soviet control,
refused to feed the cities.
Potatoes and other vegetables were
selling at Is cents a pound. They
are the chief food supply of Moscow
and Petrograd.
The workmen of Moscow and Pet
rograd factories cannot obtain food
from the commission, which has ad-
vised them to shoulder rifles and take
the grain away from the peasants.
This advice has seldom been needed,
as a majority of the workmen regard
the peasants as brothers.
Bourgeoisie Held Responsible.
Wholesale charges by the bolshevik
newspapers that the bourgeoisie are
wholly responsible for the food short
age no longer quiet the hungry labor
ers, whose faith in the bolsheviki is
waning appreciably. The promises
of Leon Trotzky, the bolshevik for
eign minister, to quell the Czecho-
Slovak uprising and tap the supply Of
wheat are no longer generally cred
tied.
Russia, the refugees say, has a
bumper wheat and rye crop in vir-
tually all the grain sections Much Of
the grain has already been harvested,
but the bolsheviki have neither the
organization nor the transportation
facilities to obtain bread for the starv-
ing cities, which scarcely can be ex-
pected to drag through a breadless
winter without turning against gov
ernment whose policy has lost the

He bore charmed life," remarked
one of his staff.
A northern Alberta battalion, when
the whole left wing was held up by
the strong enemy position in the Jig
saw wood, stormed the village Of
Pelves, on the Scarpe river, and
thence bombed its way up a commit
nication trench to the center OF the
main enemy trench line. Dividing
here, company worked to the left
and another to the right, bombing as
they went, until the trenches were
cleared and the machine gun posi-
ton and "whiz bang" battery was
taken from the river.
This exposed the north flank of
ligsaw wood and the enemy streamed
back out of it. AS they went this
