NINE THOUSAND GERMANS TMEO IN BIG ATTACK

(By Associated Press)LONDON, April 10. The British offensive between Lens and St. Quentln

with which the spring operations have been opened and which is still in prog

ress has proved even more successful than the. earlier accounts, indicated. General Sir Douglas. Haig today reports that yesterday's captures xceeded 9,000 men, while 40 guna fell; into the hands , of bis troops. The Canadians, who had on of the hardest bits of the front to' contend with, are now in complete occupation of the famous Vimy ridge, even its eastern slopes have been cleared of Germans. The Canadians also have repulsed German counter attacks. Indicate Line's Importance.

These reactions by the Germans in

dicate the importance they attach to

this position' whence? the conquerors took down over, the plain, of Douai. With Vimy ridge gone, the whole German line covering the French town and industrial districts t& the north becomes a waverbag one and any leisurely retreat the Germans may have planned is made uncertain and precarious. ' With the capture of the famous ridge the British made a considerable stride along the road to Douai,: while the capture of the high ground northwest of St. Quentin tightens the , chain which the Anglo-French forces are drawing around that town. A German diversion southeast of Ypres according to. Gen. Haig's report, met with no success. -

Suspect Plot Back of Loss

Continued from page One x icians, firemen and policemen from surrounding towns arrived in great numbers. The building in which the explosions occurred caught fire and by strenuous work the flames which burned two hours were confined to these structures. Meanwhile charred bodies were being pulled from the wreckage and injured persons were being picked up and taken to Chester, a mile away. The two main hospitals of the city were soon filled and others were injured were taken to the Fifth regiment armory arid a frame tabernacle recently erected here for religious services- " ' 1 1 ' ,J i ' Whispers of Enemv Plot. $

No official of the company was found who1 could ten anything about the explosion. There was whispers of a plot to destroy the plant. If there was a plot, no more effective spot could have been selected for the work. It was near the Delaware river bank and well isolated.

tirely greaseless), is much belter than the most expensive soap or anything else you can use for ihampooing, as this can't possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub It in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich.
