YANKS FORD VESLE
Cross River Amid az Inferno of Gas
and Hail of Shells.

With the American Army on the
Aisne-Marn" Front. Aug. S.-Cnder an
inferno Of Shrapnel and machine gun
fire and waves of gas the Americans
forced their WAY over the Vesle river.
while rain varying at tiGeS from IL
driZzle To q dnwnpour drenched the
battlefield.
French troops already have gained
positions on the American left and
the ioin4 movement has Strengthened
out the line from a point west of Bs-
zoches tn Fismes.
The Germans appear to be deter
mined not to permit American engin-
GERS to throw bridges across the Vesle,
and as O result several American of
flcers have had thrilling experiences.
The bridge builders had been eager
to proceed with their work, despite
the German fire, and their officers
have had to hold them back.
Lieutenant E. F. Mail, Of California,
on Tuesday was under cover with
sixty men on the south bank awaiting
q lull In The German Smelling in order
to build a bridge. 1t was intended to
build a foot bridge on the foundations
Of a bridge destroyed by the Germans
and then to put up larger structure.
Rather than expose his men. Lieuten-
ant Mail. carrying two planks. started
out on an exploration trip by him

The lieutenant reached the south
ern pier just as the German machine
gunners commenced a heavy fire. This
did not stop him. - tossed one plank
into a temporary position and then
put the other in place from the south
pier to the pier in the middle of the
river. The enemy fire becoming warm
er, Lieutenant Mail jumped into the
river and took cover on the north
bank. Afterwards he recrossed to the
south bank and rejoined his command
amid cheers from the soldiers.

GRAVES TO COMMAND
U. S. FORCE IN RUSSIA
To Get Two Regular Regiments
in the Philippines.

Washington. Aug. S.-Major Gen
eral William s. Graves, commanding
the eighth division at Camp Fremont,
Cal, has been assigned TO command
American troops ordered to Siberia.
General March, chief Of staff, so
announced.
The nucleus of the American forces
sent to Siberia, General March added,
would be the twenty-seventh and thir-
tytirst regular regiments, on duty in
the Philippines. They would be sup
plemented later by troops from the
United States.
No commander for the joint allied
forces in Siberia has been selected,
General March said. nor the agree
ment for the appointment of COM
mander formulated.
The object of the expedition is con-
fined strictly to the announcement
made recently by President Wilson
through the state department, the gen
eral added. 1t is not for the purpose
of establishing an eastern front.
No announcement as to the sailing
of the expedition will be made, but
news of the arrival of the forces will
pc made public promptly.

HATTERAS LIGHTSHIP

Guardian Of Diamond Shoals
Destroyed by Raider.

Washing, Aug. S-The Diamond
Shoals lightship, off Cape Hatteras, \.
c., was shelled and sunk by an enc
my submarine.
The navy department was informed
of the occurrence. The crew, who
took TO their beats, have reached
shore safely.
The submarine came within half
mile of shore, according to the brief
report to the department.
The Diamond Shoals light station is
one of the most famous guides tn
navigation in the world. 1t has been
the subject of many Il tale in verse
and prose Such vessels usually are
manned by gray boards and are help
less in the face of an attack
The submarine probably was the
one that sank the American tank
steamship o. z. Jennings, 100 miles
off the Virginia coast, several days
ago.
Naval officers doubt that the sub
marine approached within half a mile
of the shore. The lightship was an
chored some twelve miles off shore in
shallow water.
