 Ambulances were summoned and four men were found to be injured. Two were detectives and two were laborers, hurt while making their es- cape, the hands of two of the men having been lacerated while sliding down ropes into the water.
 Many workmen appeared to have been imprisoned in the hold of the St Paul. Observers from the tops of buildings overlooking the pier saw rescuers cutting holes in the part of the hull above water, letting down , ladders and bringing up the men who had been imprisoned.
 Passengers on passing vessel also reported that they could see men at work on the exposed part of the hull, cutting holes through the side with gas flame torches.
 Police and fire boats prevented the approach of all other craft. II was reported that soon after the St. Paul turned over, fire started in an unsubmerged part of the vessel which the fire boats fought and. ex- tinguished.
 Persons who saw the St. Paul being I at the time, indicating the thrush of water or shifting of ballast whatever the cause, began some time before she reached the pier.
 Workmen who escaped by Jumping into the water said they feared that some of their number had been caught below. The refusal of the military authorities to allow representatives ot the press within the barred zone sur rounding the pier made it difficult tc obtain definite information as tc whether there had been loss of life.
 At least six men were drowned and several others are missing, according to some of the workmen who were al lowed to leave the pier. Five of the known dead were laborers and ont was a member of the ships crew.

 Evidently Dr. Dumba, Austro- Hun garian ambassador to the United States, recalled at the request of this government, did not appreciate until the last moment the danger in which he was placed by his own machina- ton, for optimism characterized his last letter to Won Papen dated in Lenox, Mass, Sept. 1, 1915-
 Things are going splendidly in Russia" wrote Dumba "If only the Dardanelles hold out. Everything has ended happily in Washington and people already think they hear the bells of peace ringing. We have not got that length yet, but it just shows what a good effect it produced by good words and a light hand"

ALLIED RESERVE ARMIES
ARE GETTING INTO ACTION
Poor Lonely Man
(Editorial)

The annual meeting of the Oklahoma Press Association
at Medicine Park has passed into history but incl
dent in connection with this meeting sank deep into the mind
of editor and will be long before the vision
removed.
Naturally there many visitors to the park at the
time the editors there Three of the active candidates for
the nomination for each accompanied by his wife,
there and Governor Williams present and addressed
the meeting on invitation of the association.
Each of these visitors mingled with the through and dis
cussed conditions from less mpersona standpoint
They most congena and passed the time with supporters
or opponents
But there present who had been honored
twice by the people of this state with of the highest offices

conspicuous place the hotel porch with several hundred
passing continually He also about the place
much of the second day. Few, if noted his but
passed him by in silence 1t is probable that three of the
editors spoke to the during his stay and certainly
very few others.
This same man visited Ardmore last week and was un-

the days of yore
And why it? This had proved recreant to his

This has committed political suicide in following out

OHMenMustBePresen
AtHeanngs By Senate
On New Reuenue Bill

President Wilson having per-
sonally delivered message to
congress requesting that body
to remain in session until the
new revenue-raising bill is pass
ed, makes it certain that the
committee appointed to draft
the new law will get busy at
once, and it is Of vital interest
to the oil and gas industry that
committee be sent to Wash
ington by the Mid-Continent
Oil and Gas association, that
its interests may be fully pro-
tected in the drafting of the
new law.
Had the oil and gas business
been properly represented dur
ing the year 1917, when the
revenue tax bill was being draft
ed, provisions could have been
embodied in the law that would
have protected the smaller
companies, and as the meas
ure is now to be amended, this
committee should be maintain
ed in Washington, composed of
men who understand the situa-
ton, and to do this all COM
panies, small or large, and in
dividuals as well, who are in
tcrested in the oil or gas indus
try, should Immediately become
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1918-05-30

members OF the Mid Continent
Oil and Gas association; and
those who are members should
take out additional member
ship, as the expense of this
committee will have to be paid
by the oil and gas industries,
and each one should be willing
and anxious to send this COM
mittee, keep it there as long as
necessary, each company pay
ing a proportionate share of
the expense.
1t is understood there will be
two or three weeks given to the
public for hearing views as at
fecting various interests, as af-
ter which time, when the bill
is drafted and introduced, there
will not be an opportunity pre-
sented to alter or change it in
any way.
The time to act is now, and if
the oil and gas interests are to
be protected, there is no time
to lose.
In urging this action there
is no intention of getting any
advantage, but on the other
hand it is desired that all bear
the burden equally and thus
avoid the unintentional discrim-
ination of the revenue bill pass
ed last year.

With the French Army in France
Wednesday Evening, May 2o.-Al-
lied reserves are now taking up po-
sitions in the battle line. They are
being thrown in to strengthen the
defending forces where they are
weakest, in preparation for the plac-
ing of barrier to a further Ger
man advance.
Fresh enemy divisions have been
brought forward hastily to take the
places of those exhausted by the
advance of the last three days and
continue the pressure on the allies.
The territory south of the Vesle
River. which the Germans have
crossed at several points, is more
difficult for the attack.
Now that the allied command has
reached the conclusion that the en-
envy intends this rush to be his
chief attack, prompt measures are
being taken to stay the movement.

FIGHT ALL NIGHT.

Paris. May 30.-The battle along
the fighting front continued all
night, with the French maintaining
the western outlets of Scissors, the
war office announced today.
Northwest of Rheims the Franco
British forces broke all German
assaults and maintained the defen-
sive positions
French reserves are continuing
to arrive at the front and the Ger
man advance is being resisted with
great tenacity.
Held Up Each Time.
The Germans made repeated at
tempts to break through the de-
fense in the scissors region, but
each time were held up by the de-
termined French resistance.
In the center of the German adj
vance, fighting is taking place in
the neighborhood of Nezilly zap
proximately is miles south of the
Chemin des Danes, where the Ger
man attack was launched on Mon
day).
The statement says:
"The battle continued with un-
diminished violence during the
night. French troops energetically
maintained the western outlets OF
scissors and the enemy, notwith-
standing repeated efforts, was not
able to debouch from the town.
"On the right. Franco-British
troops along the front between
Brouillet and Thillois and also
of Rheims, broke all as
saults and maintained their posi-
tions."
