laflmt of Foreigners Results In Crowded Condition Where

Seeping Places Are Few,

VLADIVOSTOK. Aug. £3.—(Vis Tokio).—(Correspondence of the AsaoriaUvi Props.)—The influx of foreign»js incident to the landing of allied troops has filled Vladivostok, already •overcrowded by the native population, •almost to the point of standing room .•vtily. T. M. C. A. workers, American and Japanese Red Cross and the American corps of railroad operatives have been put to it to find places to sleeps

A stranger entering Vladivostok fares the prospect of walking the htrects and sleeping in the opeh unless he is fortunate enough to find frknda among some of the foreign harimbJe organisations, and considers himself extremely lucky to be provided with a mattress and blanket on the floor of some vacant building.

Every vacant house or apartment has been secured, either outright or lender option, by representatives of tho allied powers to house the staffs o£. incoming forces. Two floors of a single school building have been taken over for the lodging of 84 of Stevens railroaders and directors of the Red Cross and Y. AI. C. A. workers. The ,men are provided with mattresses, blankets, sheets and pillows. •7 Plenty of Barracks Room.

TJl+ftr, it is proposed to secure 'cots, but for the time being they will sleep on the floors. Fortunately Vladivostok always has been a heavily garrisoned town and there is plenty of barracks room, and the Red Cross doctors and nurses are well provided for on Russian island, a beautiful wooded tract several square miles In extent, lying across the bay.

Thers a comparatively new hospital building with a capacity of 150 beds has been turned over to the American Fd Cross, and has been refitted throughout with beds and apparatus 'brought from Japan. A half drwen Japanese doctors and corps of JapaT»«vse nurses ere in attendance upon 70 occupants* Czechs and Slovaks, who heretofore have been charges of the officers and men of United States naval wwwlfl to an improvised hospital honsed in a dock warehouse.

There were mora re^istranta in the thirty-fourth year (273) than any other age. One registrant gave hi a age aa 24. another as 27, and another as 28. The board members explained that the three registrants probably came to this country since the last registration day.

The number of registrants in the other ages ar«: 18 years, 206' 19 years, 194 20 years, 180 21 years, $ 32 years, 135 23 years, 245 34 years, 272 S5 years, 252 36 years, 233 37 years, 220 38 years, 230 89 years, 229 40 years, 208 41 yeara, 186 42 years. 1SK 42 yeacs, JLS5 44 yoars, 202 45 years, 195.

STATE RETURNS SLOW.

Reports Do Mot Indicate How Many Men In Total Lists. INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 13.-—Reports on the registration of men of military age in Indiana yesterday are coming so slowly to the ofllce of Maj. Robert O. BaltzeU, state conscription agent, that his office was uncertain as to how many men had registered. Eighty local boards of the 3.200 in the state bad reported early, five of them says they had exceeded their estimated number of men, and the other three falling below the estimate. The estimate of 250,000 for the state was not regarded as far wrong, however, as the divisions which will fall below the estimate will offset practically all of the registration estimates In other divisions, it is thought.

Accurate figures were not available for Indianapolis today but the estimate of 46,000 for the city and Marion county was not regarded as far wrong. Pome of the figures avnihfcble would indicate that Marion county might b&ve registered 47,000 men.

According to statements «f Charles P. Tighe, agent in charge of the bureau of Investigation of the department of justice, no wholesale raids to apprehend men who failed to register or violators of the work or fight order will be made in Indiana at this time. Men apparently of draft age may be accosted. however, and asked to show their registration cards, especially If the agents have reason to believe the man questioned may be a draft law violator.

ttVE STATES SHOW GAIN.

First Reports to War Department Indicate Gain Over Estimate. WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—Five states reporting early today on yesterday's draft registration of men of 18 to 45 showed totals between per cent greater than the estmatf made for them by the provost marshal general's offict*. Officers of Gen. Crowder's staff said, however, that the 13,000,000 grand total expected would not be overrun to that extent as the states reporting probably had abnormal local conditions.

General Crowder when he arrive! at his office at 7 o'clock this morning was greeted by officials of two local boards in Philadelphia which had completed the wrirk of giving serial numbers to the registrants within their districts and brought the lists to Washington in person.

General Crowder thanked the chairman heartily, saying speed in the task of the exemption boards .was the greatest essential now.

The first reports rame from TEhode Island, Vermont, Wisconsin, Minnesota. Oregon and the District of Columbia.

The figures probably will not be mad# public until they hay® been checked and corrected.

PERSHING GOES AHEAD IK DRIVEONST. MIHlEL

Continued From Page Om

Already 9,500 prisoners and €0 guns have been taken according to today's advices. Prisoners to the number of 8,000, Indeed, had been actually counted up to last night.

The rapid progress of the American forces on both sides of the salient now affords hope that still greater numbers of Germans may bo caught in the loop upon which Gen. Pershing's troops are closing in.

Tuke' tmpoi tmil Point.

The Americans now appear to hawmade an advance of some eight miles on tho southern side of the salient. This would bring them to tho important town of Vigneulles, lying on tho only railway line in the loop, which town today is unofficially reported In American hands.

South of Vigneulles the town of Heudiconrt is declared to be in American possession while to the east toward Thiaucourt, Pershing troops have accruired the important Thiaocoort wood and the town of Boney.

Meanwhile on the western sMe of the salient where the going Is more difficult the American advance an a twelve mile front is understood to have as cored an advance of three mOes.

The conserging operations thus appear to have resulted in the closing of the neck of the loop to a potnt where it is not much more than five miles across. Two German divisions were reported last night to be still in this part of the salient and if they have not succeeded fn extricating themselves their capture seems probable.

Many Guns Captured.

The Germans have had great 6!faculty in getting their artillery away over the lone railroad line at their disposal. They were working feverishly last night to move the guns out through Vigrjenlles but fheir way past now seems blocked by the continued American progress today.

Numbers of trench mortars and a great quantity of machine guns are already in American hajids, besides the cannon reported taken. The other railway line in the salient running through Thiaucourt was early blocked by the American capture of that place.

While the Americans are thus driving forward in the successful carrying out of the flrst thoroughly American offensive movement under Gen. Pershing's command, the French and the British are continuing to make progress along the north and south sec-. tion of the battle front where the fighting has centered all through the year up to the time the American drive was started.

French troops last night closed in toward St. Quentin capturing the town of Savy, little more than two and onehalf miles from St. Quen tin's outskirts.

YANKS GO OVER SINGING.

8. Troops Sweep On to Victory With Joyous Hearts. WITH THE AMERICAN ABMI IN LORRAINE, Thursday. SepC li.— After the American artillery had reached a drumfire Intensity the American soldiers went over the top behind a barrage singing loudly, "Where Do We Go From Here. Boys?"

The American offense was developed by & succession of surprise attacks at a great number of points, in which the enemy's lines were penetrated.

Those elements which reached the second German line of defense met with little resistance. The Americans blew up a number of block houses, machine gun pits and munition depots.

The German artillery fire at first was violent, bnt it fell off rapidly. The enemy losses are reported to have been heavy.

Just how much the Germans were surprfsed by the o/TensIve in a sector so long inactive is uncertain. It seems cot improbable, however, that they had noticed the indications given for many days past that some new plan was being adopted.

The mobilization of the big force was accomplished, however, almost wholly in night marches, the men slipping from other sectors into positions in front of the enemy here often times without even the population of the districts through which they passed being aware cf the movement.

The guns that opened the artillery preparations at 1 o'clock continued for fo^ir hours to hammer the Germans positions near and far within range. The roads over which the enemy misrht bring tip reinforcements or retreat were broken up with high explosives.
