COAL MINERS 10

President Aslcs Miners To Accept Deferred Draft Classification As

-I

War Aid,

WAfHTNGTON, Aug. 11.—C o a 1 miners and operators were called upon In a proclamation by President Wilson, made public yesterday, to give their maximum effort to the production of coal to the end that the threatened shortage next winter may be averted, i The president asked tlje miners partieularly .to work full time and urged 1% those who are essential to the industry to accept deferred classification in the draft. "The existing: scarcity of coal," said

A the president'^- proclamation, "is creating & grave danger, in fact the most serious which confronts us, and calls for prompt and vigorous action on the part of both operators and miners. Without an adequate supply the war program will be retarded the effectiveness of our fighting forces in

France will be lessened the lives of our soldiers will be unnecessarily endangered and their hardships increased and there will be much suffering in many home^ throughout i£e country during the cdming winter. "l am well aware that your ranks have been seriously depleted by the draft, by voluntary enlistment and by the demands of other essential industries. This handicap, can be ovexeqwe,

however, tnd sufficient coal can be mined in spite of it if every one connected with the industry, from the highest official to the youngest boy will give his best work each day for the full number of works hours. "Those who are drafted, but who are essential will be given deferred classification and it is their patriotic duty to accept it. And it is the patriotic duty of thfelr friends and neighbors to hold them in high regard for doing so. The only worker who deserves the condemnation of this community is the one who fails to give his best in this crisis not the one who accepts deferred classification and works regularly and diligently to increase the coal output."

French advance toward it. The fall of Noyon undoubtedly would compel rearrangement of the enemy line eastward.

Unofficially the allies have talren 40,000 prisoners and 700 guns. Since the beginning of the German offensive on the Marne, four weeks ago today, the enemy has lost nearly 76,000 prisoners and over 1,200 guns.

Berlin Admits Defeat.

Berlin reports the fighting as growing more bitter and says that Sunday all allied efforts failed. One German newspaper calls the present battle the "first serious defeat of the war."

Between Soissons and Rheims the Germans are apparently prepared to hold fast and the PYench and Americans are maiting no attacks in force! The German artillery fire was much heavier. Enemy jpreparations for an attack Sunday were stopped by American artillery fire. The first American field army has been organized with five corps tinder the command of Gen. Pershing.

frantically from the north. It is believed here the fresh troops are being endeavor to block ttje allied advance toward Nesle.

General Von Hutieif, who escaped badly damaged from the Montdidier pocket, is trying now to halt temporarily on the Roye-Noyon line. He is strong enough at the Xoyon end where his flank rests on the Oise, but should the British success In debouching from Lihons, Chilly, Fransart, Fresnoy and Goyencourt in the general direction of Nesle, Von Hutler*s right at Roye would not only be turned but he would be cut off and hopelessly lost. The entire line it is believed here Would then go down.

Should Von Hutier succeed in holding satisfactorily so as to get his soldiers and material away his next move probably would be back toward the •Somme, pivoting on Noyon. He would swing his right back on the line ©f Nesle and Ho yon.

The Germans now are fighting for time to make this possible and the fighting is likely to be even more desperate today than it was Sunday. The Germans so far have done no more than check the allied left north of the Avre. It is believed to be certain that they will spare nothing in an endeavor to push it back.

REPORTED AT WORK

Several Vessels Sunk By TT-Boats Off Atlantic Coast In Last Two Bays,

WASHINGTON, -Aug. 12.—German submarine raiders operating off the north Atlantic coast have destroyed three more vessels, the navy department today announced. The British steamer Penistone of 4,139 gross tons, was torpedoed 100 miles east of Nantucket lightship yesterday morning, the Swedish steamer Sydland, of 3,031 gross tons was sunk by bombs August 8, 100 miles southeast of Nantucket, and an American schooner reported as the Herman Winter, but whose identity has not been definitely established, was destroyed by gun-flre yesterday 200 miles east of New York. All members of the crew of Sydland were reported saved, but the navy's dispatch did not cleAr up the fate of the crews of the other vessels.

The Penistone and Herman Winter were sent down in the vicinity of George's bank off the Massachusetts coast, where a submarine came to the surface Sunday in the midst of a fleet of American fishing vessels, nine of which were destroyed. It was just three weeks ago yesterday that a submarine made its appearance off the Massachusetts coast in the second raid of submersibles in American waters since the United States entered the war. A tug and three barges were destroyed by gunfire. The submarine next was heard off the cpast of Nova Scotia, Where several steamers and sailing vessels were sunk.

In the meantime a second U-boat appeared off the Virginia coast destroying the American tank steamer O. B. Jennings, the Diamond Shaol light ship off Capt Hatteras, N. C., and other craft. In some quarters the view was held today that one submarine accounted for all vessels attacked off New England and that in all probability it was the one which has been operating in the north. Some officials, however, held that possibly a third submersible had come to this side of the Atlantic.

Insurance Rates Jump.

fTEJW YORK, Aug. 12.—Submarine underwriters today advanced war risk rates on sailing vessels both for coastwise and trans-ocean routes because of the continued activity of U-boats in coastal waters. Rates jumped to three
