Toulon, Aug. 23.-The British pas senger steamship Randy, while on a voyage between Malta and Sicily was torpedoed by a German subma- rine and although the explosion tore gaping wound in her starboard side the vessel succeeded in reaching the harbos here today.
 The U-boat which fired the torpedo was attacked by patrol boats escort ing the Randy and was sunk. Six of the submarines crew, numbering 65 officers and men, were saved, includ- ing the first mate.
 The admirable conduct of the crew of the Randy was responsible for the safety of all the passengers. Two men Were wounded when the torpedo exploded

tive Tilson of Connecticut, who, amid cheers, called upon four marines in the galleries to stand in evidence that youths of IS make excellent soldiers. This was after Representative John son of Washington had presented a small 18-year-old page in a soldiers coat and trench helmet, to support his claim that 1S-year-olds are mere children. Representative Olney of Massachusetts aroused the patriotism of the House members by declaring British and French officers conceded that it was the American marines who at Chateau Thierry, stopped the German rush in July and saved Paris
 Plans for a final vote on the meas ure in the House tonight were lost in the midst of a wrangle over an amendment by Representative Mad den of Illinois prohibiting deferred classification of government employees because of their employment. Before with several others of minor nature went over until tomorrow
 The House agreed to an amend ment by Representative Gregg of Texas, which would make members of Congress and of state legislatures, as well as state and federal executive officers, liable under the draft. More than 100 members of Congress would be subject to the draft if the amend ment were enacted into law. An amendment by Representative Me Culloch, which also was agreed to, would require the enrolment of all citizens of ro-belligerent nations and make them subject to draft in this country, except where treaties would be violated.

GERMANS HAVE
 WORST DAY IF
 HE WHOLE NIAn
British Victorious on Front of 23 Miles-Reserves Brought Up By Enemy Merely Serve to Swell Death Toll.

With the British Armies in France. Aug. 23.-Victorius on a battle front of 23 miles, extending from the Coiul river on the north, across the Ancre and Somme rivers almost to Lihons. the third and fourth British armies under Generals Byng and Rawlnson at mld-afternoon were vigorously fol- lowing up their successes of today. which apparently has been one of the most disastrous days ever experienced by the Germans.
 The enemy has lost wide stretches of ground, many towns, thousands of men made prisoner, and large quan- titles of materials and guns. He also again has had heavy casualties.
 Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bava- ria, the German commander, has thrown his men in before the advanc- ing British armies in an effort to slave off the inevitable, but only to have them moved down again and again by storms of metal which pour ed from the British guns. One entire enemy battalion was annihilated dur ing the fighting.
 Dead Germans in great numbers are scattered everywhere over the battle field. Four hundred dead were observed this morning on one small piece of ground over which the battle had swept.
 With all this fierce fighting. all though the British at many places have fought over open ground against an enemy protected in pot holes'' and strong points of other kinds, the British losses everywhere seem to have been extraordinarily light. This probably is due to the confusion the Germans find reigning behind their lines as they are fighting a losing battle which for them hourly grows more disastrous.

SENSATIONAL RISE
 IN COTTON PRICES
Most Excited and Rapid Bulge on Record in New York Closed at Net Advance of 263 to 2S2 Points.

New York, Aug. 23-One of the most excited and rapid, if not the most sensational, advances in the his tory of the cotton market, took place during today's trading. October con- tracts sold up 290 points, making a movement within 10 points of the maximum fluctuation permitted for one day, the general list closing strong at a net advance of 263 to 2S2 points.
 The opening was steady at an ad- vance on renewed Liverpool buying and relatively firm cables. Private reports of rains in Texas were more numerous than at any time previously this week, however, and prices soon eased off under realizing and local selling. A general covering move ment then developed. Buying was stimulated by rumors of very bullish private condition figures. The weekly review of a prominent Western au- thority said the prospect was the worst since 1909, and later rumors were circulating that early returns to one of the Southern bureaus indicat- ed the lowest d-August condition on record. Domestic interests were said to be among the heavier buyers on the advance, while there was contin- ued buying for Liverpool account, scattered covering and broadening general demand. The close was with in a few points of the best, although considerable realizing was attracted.
 Spot cotton steady, middling 36.80c.
