were called and the sufferers were

Physicians were unable to say wheth-

any cases until they determined def

were able to assist in caring for the

Joe Saro, the baker, from whom the

BY the Associated Press.

MANILA, July 1-Insular Auditor
Ben r. Wright's fight to prevent the
payment of public funds to q Chinese
contractor who is building q wharf for
the. Government at Iloilo was lost to-
day when the Supreme Court denied a
rehearing OF the case and ordered him
to sign certificate within five days
releasing the money.
It was understood that Wright would
comply with the order and not appeal
TO the United States Supreme Court,
as ne had planned. This appeared To
end a case which nearly resulted in
Wright going to jail for contempt of
court. Upon failing to sign the order
at first, he was held in contempt by
Associate Justice Charles A. Johns, sit
ting as . vacation judge during the
Summer recess.
Justice Johns fined Wright $3.50 and
sentenced him to jail, but the auditor
obtained writ Of habeas corpus from
Judge Thomas A. Street, returnable to-
day. The fun court, reconvening to-
day, held that the original judgment
directing Wright to sign the release
must stand.

He awaited his time to strike the ar rival of American achievements gave him numerical superiority over the enemy and on July IS he began the ponderous smash that was to end in the complete collapse of Germany and the ces- sation of hostilities.
 Foch gave the Germans no rest but struck unceasing. terrific. sled- gehammer blows-now here. now there-at various points of the line. With the British. French and Belgians he stopped the ene- my's advance toward the English Channel; with the French and Americans he blocked the way to Paris. Then the Germans began to retire and. following the Amer ican victory at Chateau Thierry the long battle line from Switzer- land to the sea receded daily northward and eastward toward the Rhine.
 Each of the five big battles that were fought under Foch's direc- tion in the closing days of the war was SO timed and placed that each army supported the other, all form ing an indispensable part of the whole and all working as smoothly as the parts of a we'll adjusted automobile engine. All were di- rected toward the same end-to wear down the enemy's strength. Hindenburg fought with a bud geon. broadsword. Foch welded a rapier with lightning like thrusts at vital spots.

 The appointment of Foch as Gen eralissimo of all the Allied forces, on March 29, 1918, eight days after the Germans had started what was to be their last great offensive in the West, was gener- ally regarded as the master diplo- matic stroke of the war.
