SENATOR Professional
CE[LAR-DELNERY FEE
Mr.. Hitchcock Urges That Dealers
Make Arrangements for Car.
rying It in Homes.

A vigorous protest against the ex-
orbitant prices charged in the Dis
trict for carrying coal into houses
was made by Senator Hitchcock of
Nebraska to Commissioner Brownlow
today. This growing practice has
been cited in numerous instances to
members Of Congress recently.
Senator Hitchcock suggested that
the dealers be prohibited from deliv-
ering coal until previous arrange
ments had been made for carrying II
in. This. Gin the senator's judgment,
would compel the men who carry the
coal to make arrangements with the
coal men and would bring about a
reasonable price regulation.
The dealers. according to informa-
ton obtained by Senator Hitchcock
are anxious to cooperate to this end
but have been unable to get the men
to view the matter in that light. the
ate Independently and charge as high
prices as they can get. In many in
stances they are getting as high as 81
ton. One instance was reported OF
a man who carried in sixteen tons al
this rate in a normal days work.
Senator Hitchcock pointed out that
in many instances coal has remained
on the streets for some time. because
householders were unable to get men
to carry 1t in. When they did get the
men the houSeholders were required
to pay as high as 81 ton. In Other
instances wives whose husbands were
out Of the city either had to pay the
excessive price or had to carry in the
coal themselves.

French Make Big Aduance;
5000 Prisoners in TUO Daus
Rv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
PARIS, August 23.-Between the
Disc and the Aisne French troops ad-
vanced their lines during the night
TO Guny and Pont st. Mard, just south
of the Ailette river. They hold the
right banks of the Oise and the Ailette
from Sempigny TO the railroad west
of Coucy-le-Chateau. according To
war Office today.
Between the oise and the Aisne dur
ing the advance of Wednesday and
Thursday Gen. Mangin's army took
5000 prisoners, according to adVices
reaching Paris
The Franco-British successes Thurs
day increased the menace to Roye and
Noyon and rendered their fall near,
says the Echo de Paris. 1t adds that
Paris has been made safer by the
operations of the army of Gen. Hum
bert, and that scissors has been made
more secure by the capture of Pom
miers and Vauxrezis.
LHomme Libre says there Is reason
TO hope for important events in the
next few days in the region of Noyon.
The allies are reaping the fruits OF
the victories of July IS and August
IN the present critical situation in
which the German command finds it,
self.
Noyon, it is held here, is the logical
consequence of those victories. The
French and British are pressing the
enemy so close that he is obligated to
throw IN his best troops to save him
self from disaster. In the north and
in the south the allies are dashing
upon the Germans and swapping up
prisoners and booty, sometimes get
ting into the main army defense po-

Counter Attack Possible.

Gen. Mansin's pressure between Au-
gust IS and 20 resulted in the capture
of more than 10000 prisoners and on
the 22d he forced the enemy to beyond
the Ailette The army of Gen. Won
Eben is in such predicament, 1t is
believed. that he is bound to make
a formidable counter attack to halt
Gen. Mangin or be obliged to with
draw from the Aisne and Vesle to the
Chemin des Danes. If the enemy
does not counter attack along the
Ailette it probably will mean that
Gen. Won Eben is In a sadder plight
than is thought here.
In the north the British third army
has pushed the Germans SO danger
ously near Bapaume that the German
command has found 1T necessary to
counter attack in force. The loss of
Bapaume in the present circum :
stances would amount to disaster,
according to opinion here.
The expected fall of Roye has not
yet occurred. but there is no hurry
about that, as Roye has lost its i'm
portance now that all the roads lead
ing to 1t are under the fire of the
French artillery and useless to the
enemy.
French Fliers Praised.
The work of the French aerial
Disc is praised by the newspapers.
The Petit Partisan says that the
capture of the towns of Bailly
and Carlepont was due in great
part to the work of airmen, who
destroyed numerous conveys on the
Noyon-Compiegne road and spread
confusion in the enemy ranks. The
tanks opened the way. it is declared,
and the bombing airplanes hurried
the eQemY retirement.

The new republic was claimed as q
subordinate province by Argentina
and Brazil. In this new struggle Bra
zil gained the upper hand and Uru-
guayan independence seemed as far
OFF as ever, and many OF the patriots
were driven from the country. Among
these quito a number sought asylum
in Buenos Aires.
1t was not until April, 1925. that a
small band of these exiles, only
thirty-three in number with Juan An
tonic Lavelle at their head, set out to
cross the Plata to once more strike a
blow for Uruguayan freedom.
How the Immortal thirty-three''
started the patriotic fires. how their
ranks grew day by day. how they
fought battle after battle against
odds, how a mere handful of them be-
sieged the Brazilian forces in Monte
video and finally caused its surrender.
is matter of history. 1t was while
the patriot army was besieging tho
capital that Lavalleja and a few other
leaders met at Florida, little north
of Montevideo. and on August Is, 1925,
framed and issued the celebrated dec
laration of independence of Uruguay
and set up their own government. It
took nearly four more years Of fight

video in triumph. hut August 25 is the

Fierce Fighting at Lassigny.

old positions, which were abandoned
by the Germans in March, 1917.
In the fighting at close quarters,

determined not to allow the body of
the lieutenant to fall into the hands
of the enemy. They had exhausted all
their rifle and machine gun ammu-
milton and grenades.
With nothing else to fight with,
they grabbed the picks used for dig

Germans until the body of the lieu

that republic the eighteen-year strug-

The Cruguayians started their long
fight for freedom in 1910 when the

Gervasio Artigas. who had Joined the
Argentine revolutionists, succeeded in
rallying around him a band of about
$50 patriots In Buenos Aires and
crossing the Rio de la Plata on
April II. 1911. struck the first real
and effective blow for his own coun-
try's deliverance from Spanish do
minion. He defeated the royalists at
Paso del Rey- Then, his forces aug
mented by perhaps a thousand en-
thusiastic patriots. he routed the
Spaniards at Las Piedras. Three
years of almost incessant fighting
followed. finally eliminating in the
capitulation of the last Spanish
stronghold. Monteyideo. and the dom
ination of the mother country was
ended.

Extensions of gas or electric mains

sary.
Request had been made Of the Poto.
