 "All is going well. Look at the small advances made by the Bochc, to call them by their real name, during the 27th, 18th, 29th and Soth. It now is the fourth of April, and it is clearly evident that the great tidal wave of the German army has been broken on the shore, evidently be- cause it met an obstacle. Now they are against an embankment ana completely stopped.
 "The future will show the full measure of our success. We are going to try to do better and to get the upper hand of the Boche. l can not say what will happen. but ali IS going well.''

LONDON, April 5.--A war office communication issued this evening dealing with the fighting on the west ern front says:
 Since dawn this morning the Ger mans have delivered heavy attacks north and south of Dernancourt, south west of Albert and in the region of Moyenneyille.
 At Dernancourt and southwest of Albert they succeeded in getting a footing in our defenses. The situation at Albert was restored by a counter attack.
 Tn the region of Mesnil and Beau- mont-Hamel our line has been heavily shelled and some infantry fighting has taken place near Mesnil, but without advantage to the enemy. Enemy at tacls on Moyenneville were repulsed.
 An attack carried out by our troops southeast of Gommecourt resulted in the capture of 120 prisoners.
 "On the British front south of the Somme the situation has been quiet"
 Strong attacks by the German in- fantry between the Somme and the vicinity of Cucquoy were delivered to- 1 day, buet met with virtually no success according to the British official con- munication issued this evening" Heavy | cdSudllltS were lilllCleu OIl l1C NIeT- mans.
 The official statement reads:
 This morning the activity of the enemy's artillery and trench mortars increased north of the Somme and was followed by series of strong infantry attacks along all of that portion of the battle front which lies between the Somme and Bucquoy. The latest re- ports indicate these attacks met with | virtually no success anywhere and have resulted in further heavy casual ties to the enemy
 "On the same front our troops car ried out a successful attack in the neighborhood of Hebuterne. They took l some 200 prisoners and number oi machine guns.
 South of the Somme there were nc | further attacks made on the British front by the enemy today. It is, con firmed that the fighting yesterday or this front was of most severe and persistent nature, the enemy making repeated assaults on our positions east of Villers- -Bretoneux."
 The Germans have made a formid able effort, probably aimed at gettins astride of the Amiens- Paris railway says Reuters correspondent at British 1 headquarters in France.

Furious Battles Being Waged In Picardy But Despite Terrible Offensive Waged
 English and French Lines Lose Little
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

IT battle which has lasted since Thursday and which II probably still is continuing with utmost fury, the
 Germans have been hurling massed divisions against
 the British and French lines from far north of AL bert to short distance north of Montdider Probably there has not been sangunary battle fought since the beginning of the Teutonic offensive March 2l than hs which has for it's objective the driving of wedge be- tween the British and French armies the cutting of the Paris Amens railroad south of Amens and the capture of that city.
 But in spite of the power of the attack and the des peration of the fighting the entente allied egions have stood firm most of their front At only two points have they been forced to give ground and these the map to be only minor when compared with the sacrifice of lives which they have cost.
 Just to the southwest of Albert the British have with drawn short distance and the French have given up the village of Castel west of Moreuil which has been the storm center of the German assaults for the last few days At this point the Teutons within three miles of the Paris -Amiens road.
 The German official statement claims that successes both north and south of the Somme have been and that the number of prisoners taken since the beginning of the drive has increased to ninety thousand and the guns captured now total 1900.

Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

BOSTON, April 5-Orders for the in- ternment of Dr. Karl Muck, former leader of the Boston Symphony Or chestra, were received from Washing ton by federal agents here tonight. It was said that no arrangements for Dr. Mucks transfer to the military author ities for internment, or for his removal from the East Cambridge jail, where he now is confined, would be made un- til some time next week probably.
 WASHINGTON. April 1.-The de- partment of justice after an extensive investigation of Dr. Muck's record of pro- German sympathies and utterances and his close associations in the past with state leaders in Germany. decided it would be dangerous to permit him to remain at large. His claims of Swiss citizenship, based on the fact that his father was naturaliZed in Switzerland after moving from Germany. were overruled under the espionage act which permits the internment of a "denizen" of an enemy country.
 Dr. Muck was arrested about two weeks ago and held on a presidential warrant while the department of jus tice reviewed reports of secret agents.

 It was in 1898, he said, when a German military attache and close friend of the Prussian emperor out lined the present war to Major Bailey of the United States army
 Dr. Gayley advised everyone to send to the committee on public in- formation for the book Conquest and Kultur" which among many other things relates this Germans prediction.
 Chairman Asbury then spoke of the opening today of the third Lib erty loan drive and urged tie in" quickly, as it was certain the quota. would be raised, and advised that if possible it be subscribed in one week instead of the allotted time of four weeks.
 Speaking briefly, Judge Baker sug- gested that a Patriotic League of Maricopa County be organized to aid the Liberty loan committee, and in support of this every man pres ent arose and pledged his aid to the campaign.

ITO sustain every gov srnment plan, to stand firmly behind our beloved executive is the duty of every loyal American
 In further warning to conserve tune and every possible energy, Mir Parker exclaimed, At this time when every resource is vital, man either is an isn't or an is.' Con- script the loafer. Take every man whether hobo or millionaire who is not to the best of his ability assist ing along every line ,and make him work or put him in jail"
 Mir. Parker urged a vigorous sup port of the county council of de- fense and a coordination of all war activities.
 In conclusion. he said that organ ization meant saving, and further admonished those who couldn't Ego across" to "come across"
 President Asbury of the Chamber of Commerce next introduced A. C. Baker, who interestingly told of Arizona's introduction to the third Liberty loan campaign. most anus ingly llkening it to a bashful young man meeting his lady love.
 He pointed out that to subscribe to this great movement was q heaven granted privilege, that to as- sist those of our boys who are now giving their lives that we may con- tinue to live in peace and comfort was something for which gratitude could not be expressed in words.
 Give every cent" shouted Mir. Baker. Give every dollar-back your boys to the very last ard God will bless you"
 Following this talk, patriotic tableau in the dimly lighted hall was revealed which brought the audience to it's feet with cheer after cheer. while the Indian school band played the inspiring strains of the national anthem. Under the direction of Miss Georgia Mintz, her group of women in liberty costumes presented a beautiful scene.
 The speaker of the evening, Dr.. c. w. Gayley of the University of California, was introduced by Mir. Baker. who gave assurance of the fact that 'Dr. Gayley was professor of the English language at Berkeley and did not teach German" (Great applause.)
 Professor Gayley's address was a masterpiece of sound patriotic ad- vice. Warning against the dissemin- ation of peace propaganda, and as- suring those present that if the most sanguine hopes of war officials were realized. that the war would not end until 1921 was the substance of his opening words.
 Do you realize, gentlemen" said .Dr. Gayley, 'does the country realize that Germany has thus far, on land, won the war? Do you realize that she possesses two- thirds of the Euro pean continent and with the with drawal of Russia has added resources with which to maintain her govern ment?"
 In ringing tones the professor said that England did not leap into this war for Americas sake, nor did France. but decried the fact that this nation had not awakened sooner from the lethargic state into which she was so rapidly sinking.
 Germany. the speaker stated. had long concealed hatred of the United States, and in proof of this proceeded to show the plans long laid for this great war. and the
