•Batteries A. and C. With Equipment, Pass Throug.n Terre Haute Bound for Border.
The first of the Indiana national guard to be ordered to the Mexican border passed through Terre Haute late Thursday night on three sections of a special train on the Big Four railroad and was greeted at the local station by large crowds of people. The soldiers were members of the Indiana battalion of the field artillery, Battery A, and C. The first section of the train carried the headquarters detachment and Battery A under the command of Major -Robert H. Tyndall.'The Second, Battery of Lafayette, under Captain Harry Mclvor, and the Third section, Battery C, with Captain Arthur C. Brockenbrough.
The- trains were mixed, being made up of Pullman cars, day coaches and chair cars in addition to the freight cars carrying the equipment of the units. The third section also had the horses for the battalion and was running on a slower schedule than the first two.
Th® officers in charge of the batteries received orders early Thursday morning to entrain but it was after 8 o'clock when they had loaded the last car and vwere ready to leave Camp Ralston. •i The three trains of 15 cars each left the sidings at the camp within a few minutes of each other.
Animals Go Separately.
A battery was in the first section, in the second, and in the third. The official battalion headquarters car was attached to the first section. In order not to dejay all three sections, the three cars used for the sixty horses the battery took from the camp were attached to the last section. The animals must be unloaded and watered "at various places along the line. While that is being done, the first two sections will go on without delay.
Twenty-one flat cars were required to carry the field pieces and artillery. Day coaches were provided for most of the troops, the railroad men saying tourist sleepers were not available. One or two sleepers were in each train. At St. Louis, it was said, the sleepers would be available and from there the tyien would have more comfort.
Unlike the first troops which went to the border the Indiana men will riot be given the opportunity to swim at stops along rivers. The change was made because guardsmen from other states have been drowned, it was said.
Ten days' rations were packed in 'each train before they left the camp. Five sections of the First Pennsylvania artillery passed through the city Thursday night on the Vandalia lines, ^between. 10.:30 and 11 o'clock enroute ^EQm Pittsburgh, the concentration point, to the Mexican border. The first section was made up- of fifteen coaches and twelve cars of field pieces which carried Company C, of Pittsburgh, and Company E, of Phoenixville. Pa.
When the train pulled into the station it was "doubled over" and while Raiting a number of women served the soldiers lemonade.

earthwork and in the Fleury and Chenois sections. A small German attack on the French trenches at the LePretre woods failed.
German aeroplanes dropped bombs yesterday on the open town of Lure, killing eleven persons, all of whom except one were_women or children. Two German machines were brought down near ,Mezieres.
FRENCH HOLD PICARDY.
Say Positions Put To Test Have Come Out Successfully. PARIS, July 7.—The solidity of the French conquest in Picardy at last has been put to the test and military men here say it has come out of the ordeal with flying colors, thus again demonstrating the soundness of the Brusiloff method.
The Germans who managed to gather considerable forces partly apparently from the British front where the pressure was lessened during the day, and partly from depots, delivered a series of violent attacks on two points. The first of these was between Hem and Maricourt on the Clery road, the second on the extreme right between Estrees and Belloy, their object being to drive a wedge between the French center and right where the French line crosses the Somme river from Hem to Feuilleres and between the extreme right and the rest of ^he French front-
The success of these maneuvers would have forced the eventual retirement of the whole French line. The German reaction, however, came too late.
The French had time thoroughly to strengthen their line, to advance and place in pqsition heavy artillery and to bring up plentiful stocks of munitions. Consequently the attacking v.-ave was caught in a whirlwind of machine gun fire from the trenches and was shot to pieces by the "Seven-ty-fives," while the German supports following and reserves far in the rear were shattered by salvos from medium and heavy batteries.
The German infantry plodded forward .again and again but nowhere, French reports say, made any impression upon the French lines. Rare
ly even did they get to grips with the occupants of the trenches which accounts for the small number of prisoners taken. The Germans, say the reports, had striven the whole day without effecting the slightest modification of the situation.
The French remain two and a half miles from Peronne on the south side of the Somme and four miles from that city on the north side of the river and there are no formidable natural cbstacles in the way of the occupation of the city when the French commander judges that time is ripe to do so.
LUXURY IN TRENCHES.
Booty T^ken By French fncludes Piano and Brass Bedstead. PARIS, Julv 7.—The work of sorting the booty taken by the French troops in the fighting at the Somme brings to light many curious facts In the Mereaucourt woods a heavy German battery was found completely dismounted. The battery commander's shelter alone remained intact.
The luxury of the arrangements in the German position on the Santerre plauteau showed that they were considered impreRiiable. In the positions occupied by the battcrv mentioned were a piano, a brass bedstead and a complete hot and cold water supply.
The greatest booty fell to General Balfourier's famous "Iron Corps" which distinguished itself at Verdun. This corps took enough material to set up a whole army.
UNLOADS COSTLY CARGO. German Ship's Store of Nitrate Increases In Value Eight Times.
NEW YORK, July 7.—The German sailing ship Indra began to discharge here today a cargo of nitrate from Chile valued at $1,000,000. When she arrived here bringing the cargo in September, 1914, it was worth only $125,000 but the demand for the chemical for the manufacture of explosives has greatly increased its price since then. The result is that while lying in this port for nearly two years the value of the cargo has increased by $875,000.
The Indra was bound from a Chilean port for France when the European war began. The captain headed for New York on learning that war was declared. Consignees of the cargo began litigation to compel him to carry it to France but he declined to take his ship to sea where she might be captured by British or French warships.

Ralston Bids Goodbye.
"Gcodbye and God bless you" was the governor's concluding message to the batterymen. In a brief talk the governor saiS Indiana soldiers have ever been ready to respond to the call of their country and declared "it Is with intense pride in the young manhood of our state that I look upon these splendid soldiers."
He added that the Indiana troops will have his deepest interest and concern while away from Indiana.
Relatives and friends—all anxious, some tearful—crowded about the soldiers and bade them farewell. Soldiers remaining behind sent up cheer after cheer, while the bands played "Turkey in the Straw," "The Girl I Left Behind Me" and other popular airs. The Purdue boys sang various university songs, but most frequently, "Oh, the Moon Light's Fair Tonight Along the. Wabash."
Each section was labelled, the soldiers printing with white chalk the name of the battery on the sides of the cars.
The staff officers rode on the first section and included Major Robert H. Tyndall.
The five physicians, who conducted the physical examination of the men, were said, by Lieutenant-Colonel Bannister, to have established a record in the speed with which they accomplished t.heir work.
Six commissioned officers and 232 enlisted men of the Third infantry failed to pass their physical examinations. Among the companies the losses are: Angola, 14 men South Bend, 23 men Plymouth, 34 men Portland, 1 officer and 25 men Valparaiso, 15 men Auburn, 14 men Warsaw, 1 officer and 8 men Kendallville, 18 men Monticello, 1 officer and 20 men Albion, 16 men, and Rensselaer, 14 men. o

and Paul M. Warburg, of the federal reserve board had nothing to do with this aspect of the situation. The faci. that his visitors came together, he said, was merely a coincidence and without significance.
The war department was busy assembling for the first time in history the United States regular army reserve of 4,000 or 5,000 enlisted men retired from active service, but still subject to call in case of "war or emergency."
Announcement was made last night that these men would be summoned to assist in organizing additional regular army units about to be formed under the new national defense act.
National Guard Reduced.
On the other hand a material diminution of national guard forces for border duty was in prospect as a result of Secretary Baker's order authorizing discharge from service of those guardsmen with dependent families.
CITY TO ORDER CLEAN-UP.
Boards and Mayor to Outline Campaign Monday. Mayor Gossom announced Friday morning that: a meeting of the board of safety, board of works and the board of health would be called probably for next Monday evening in the mayor's office to discuss the question of a general clean-up of Terre Haute's alleys and streets. The mayor said the alleys of Terre Haute are a continual subject of complaint by citizens and that orders would be issued to every property owner to see that his part of an alley is cleaned and kept cleaned. A special force of men will be engaged to aid in the clean-up 'of the alleys.
Automobiles owners with garages facing on the alleys, have complained of broken glass and tin cans, while the habit of throwing grass from mown lawns into the alleys and streets, to be washed into the se-^grs, subsequently clogging them up, is other source of complaint.
