LONDON, June 17—The British line in France from the Douve river to Wieltke was subjected to a terrific artillery bombardment beginning last midnight, General Haig reported to the •war office.

LONDON, June 17.—The Russian "bear though meeting a far more stubborn resistance than during the first portion of the eastern front offensive continues to advance all along the line, according to Petrograd dispatches.

Radzilowo, an important town on the railroad to Lemberg and sixty miles east of that city has been captured, according to a Petrograd war office announcement tonight, and the troops are pushing on toward the Galican capital. The capture of Lemberg would practically insure the success of the drive in the Czernowitz sector as it would make the strengthening of forces there almost impossible.

Bloody engagements have been reported all along this sector with the Germans claiming the repulse of the Russian attempts to cross the river.

suicide, but all had to admit that none was the intimate friend of Marlon's that Josephine seemed to be. "Crazy" About Orpet.

Blue-eyed Florence Russell, who walked bashfully to the stand and blushed beneath a daisy trimmed hat, sprang the day's sensation. "Marlon told me honestly," she whispered, "that she didn't like Will Orpet any more. She didri't want to meet him any more. "Marion told me that Jo Davis liked Will awfully. "Jo Davis, Marion said, came to her home often so she could meet Will. Marlon told me she didn't care if he did get a case on Jo, because she didn't like him, and Jo did. Jo was crazy about him. That's what lots of girls say."

Orpet, pale and tired looking, grinned a bit sheepishly. He whispered nervously to his attorneys as dark-haired Frances Bishop, who spent the night with Marion after her birthday party, chanted that Marion "always was happy and didn't say anything about committing suicide to me."

One by one the girls took the stand. Some of them knew about Will Orpet, but none of the primrose path he and Marion trod. Some of them knew that Will was going to meet MariQn on the Wednesday: of her death Most of all, they knew and said, "Marion always was happy."

GERMANS ORDER REPRISAL.

Imprison French Officers In Retaliation Against Foe's Acts. BERLIN, June 17.—In reprisal on the French, for the imprisoning of Lieutenant Erler, a captured German, in a civil prison on a twenty year sentence, the German government has incarcerated ten captured French officers in a civil prison where, according to the semi-official Nord Deutche Algemeine Gazette, they will be kept until Erler is treated as a prisoner of war.

Erler was sentenced for burning a private French home on territory occupied by the Germans. His defense was that the house had been used for military purposes. The German government made representations to the French and despite overwhelming proof that Erler was innocent of crime, he was not given a new trial.

AUTHORITIES IN CONTROL.

Optimism Prevails In Minnesota Ore Strike Zone. VIRGINIA, Minn., July 17— Optimism prevailed tonight witfc civil authorities, armed against 3,000 iron ore strikers here, on guard. The strikers had armed 100 men who have notice that three deputies would be shot to every striker shot, if the authorities started trouble. The authorities had ordered the miners, concentrated here, to leave the city. The orders were disregarded.

The authorities claim that leaders for the miners tonight asked official permission to parade through the streets tomorrow enroute to a mass meeting at Aurora, Minn. The fact that the strikers considered it necessary to ask permission, the authorities claim, is significant.

has been quickly obliterated by President Wilson's sharp and direct delineation of loyal Americanism.

The president has made it clear that he does not challenge the loyalty of "hyphenated citizens," as they are called by Col. Roosevelt. The president believes that they can be fis loyal as any class of citizens, but he does propose to stamp out the individual cases of insiduous anarchy and treason, of which he says the federal officials have unimpeachable evidence.

Ready for the Fight.

The president has indicated that if any individual or any political party cares to make this an issue in an election of an American president, he, or they, will have Wilson to answer to, and he will put the case before the American people in such direct, unmistakable terms that there can be no quibbling or trimming. He will put It so everyone will have tc take his place —for America, or against her, without qualification or reservation.

VOLKS ZEITUNG SPEAKS.

Says Germans and Irish Cannot Support President Wilson. ST. PAUL, Minn., June 17—The Volks Zeitung, a German weekly newspaper published here in the German language, today announced for Charles Evan3 Hughes for president. In a lead editorial in German it says: "Democracy had two ways open to appeal to the people. As the German and Irish element of electors were dissatisfied with the Wilson regime, the democrats could count on the German and Irish voters if they had chosen another standard bearer than Wilson, for instance, Bryan or Clark. With the attack against hyphenates in the democratic platform, the party has spoken Its own judgment."

The Volks Zeitung four years ago supported Taft. Eight years ago also it supported Taft.

MAY DROP SHOP MEETINGS.

Y. M. C. A. In Doubt About Holding Sessions During Summer. Secretary Will A. House, of the T. M. C. A., announced last night that the weekly shop meetings would probably not be held during the summer months. Heretofore the meetings have been disbanded at the beginning of June, but of late the attendance at the meetings was so good that they were continued. Unless the men can be induced to give as good attention out of doors as they do indoors the meetings will end this week, as the hot weather will soon necessitate outside meetings.

ENGINEERS NOMINATE.

The National Association of Stationary Engineers, No. 8, held their regular meeting Saturday evening and discussed several problems of genera] interest to the members. The nominations for oi'ricers for the local organization and for delegate to the national convention at Minneapolis were opened for one week.

NOMINATIONS POSTPONED.

Owing to the light attendance at the regular monthly meeting the C. L. U. hall last night tbe nomination of officers of branch No: 243, International Union of Steam and Operating Engineers, was postponed until the next meeting. Only a short meeting was held in which,' routine business was transacted.

TIGHTEN U. S. LINES.

American Forces Belcw Border Ready for Any Emer gency. COLUMBUS, N. M., June 17.—The American punitive expedition in Mexico tonight is ready to meet any *jarranza attack. General Trevino's notification to General Pershing that any American movement must be in retreat and not an advance, was met by a tightening up of the expedition's communications which -'was noticeable here. Cavalry patrols operating south of Namiquipa were drawn in and concentrated at the base camps or sub-bases along the communication line. Orders were dispatched to every encampment to hold itself in readiness to defend or attack on an instant's notice.

General Pershing has a definite plan of campaign mapped out for use the minute the Carranza forces launch an attack at any point on his column. It is known here that the infantry, artillery and other branches of American expedition have been brought into final line in preparation to meet any emergency.

Army officers here stated that Trevino is making a colossal bluff and has already showed signs of backing down on his threat.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., June 17.— American soldiers are battling„ with Mexicans on Mexican soil, below Ranchito, Texas, tonight. Meanwhile the 285-mile long American line in Mexico is waiting threatened attack by Gen. Trevino's Carranzistas as the result of Gen. Pershing's reported defiance of Trevino's ultimatum.

Fort Sam Houston was silent tonight on the text of the reply Gen. Persing made to Trevino's threat that any movement of American troops except a retreat from Mexico would bring attack by Trevino. It was generally understood, however, that Pershing told the Carranzista commander he could not recognize Trevino's authority to govern American troop movements. Trevino's threat and.Pershing's reply, as forwarded to Gen. Funston, were dispatched to the war department at Washington.

Funston Ready.

Friends forecast that Mrs. Dick-to-be will re-enter New .York's social whirl without reserve. Though the loss of the name Astor will perhaps lessen her prestige, it is pointed out that the fact that she is the mother of John Jacob Astor third would be open sesame everywhere. There is some doubt, however, whether she will ever gain the full entre of the "400," and it was predicted tonight that Mrs. Ava William Astor will assume the social leadership of the Astor family without question.
