BEARISH . PRESSURE ON CORN MARKET CHICAGO, Sept. 5 Failure of frost predictions had a bearish effect today on corn, and bo too had the likelihood of warmer -weather. Selling, however, was of only a scattered sort, and the market was easily influenced. Opening prices, which varied from unchanged figures to 3-4 lower, with Sept. 155 to 155 1-8 and Oct. 156 3-8 to 156 7-8, were followed by a moderate rally and then by another sag. Oats were steady as a result of any aggressive selling. After opening quarter off to 1-8 up with October 724 to 72, the market hardened slightly and then reacted a trifle. Declines in the hog market weakened provisions. Most of the business was in ribs. GRAIN QUOTATIONS CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE CHICAGO, Sept. 5.

AMERICAN TROOPS ATTACKING CANTIG

Americans in action in attack on Cantigny, above, and Merun road, scene of British drive. The fierce attack on Cantigny by the American forces early in the summer paved the way for the allies' offensive which has almost cleared the Somme salient. British tanks aided the Yanks in their work. The upper picture shows part of the attack. The lower photo shows the Menin road to Ypres and Zonnebeke, where the British have broken through the Hindenburg line. Heaps of German shells and other war materials and wreckage can be seen along the road.

Forty Tons of Explosives Are Dropped by Allied Planes on Enemy Line (By Associated Press. PARIS, Sept. 5 Nearly 40 tons of explosives were dropped by 148 entente allied airplanes on the towns of Bramcourt and Anizy-Le-Chateau, south of Coucy forest, on August 29 in connection with the advance of general Mangin's army, says the Matin. Important material damage was done. In the course of the aerial operation 15 fights took place.- Six enemy airplanes were shot down. Only one allied machine was lost. COMMERCIAL CLUB TO CONSIDER NEW LOCAL ARMY CAMP At the monthly membership meeting of the Commercial Club on next Friday night the question of bringing to Richmond a new army camp will be considered. So far the idea is merely a plan and no definite steps other than bringing H. J. Helfrich. a representative of the committee on Education and Special Training here to look over the situation have been takekn. Mr. Helfrich was in the city on Wednesday afternoon and investigated a number of sites with members of the Commercial Club. According to thi3 investigation the most apropos site in Richmond would be building one of the Unite d Refrigerator company, which it is thought could accommodate 1,200 men, the number desired for the proposed camp. If the camp 5s established here schools of thirty days each will be ' held, at which student soldiers will j receive military drill, and training in the repanr of motor trucks. The first school of this kind in Indiana has been established at Valparaiso. A number of other important things will be brought up at the meeting Friday. It is expected that President David Edwards of Earlham college, or some other member of the faculty will explain the point of view of Earlham college in not announcing military training for the coming year. William Dudley Foulke is expected to respond with arguments on the feasibility of such training at Earlham. A discussion will follow. A representative of the State Chamber of Commerce will be present Friday night to discuss insurance surcharges. A financial statement on receipts and expenditures will also be sub- j mitted to the club. All members are urged to be present.

"The government has every facility to prevent strikes. Machinery has been established by employes, employers and representatives from the war department which will prevent strikes. "I believe that strikes can and must be prevented in Richmond. The employers with whom I have talkked have shown a desire to meet the employes on the wag question. I believe that I can handle all of the situation with the exception of the hour question. That must be settled at Washington. The government will adjust that part of it. At present the government is seeing the effect of the eight hour in factories.

NYSTART OF DRIVE, IN

Vr Must Protect Crown by Franchise Reform, concedes Von Hertling (By Associated Press.) AMSTERDAM, Sept. 5 In speaking to the constitution committee of the Prussian upper house to fulfil the emperor's pledge for reform of the franchise, Chancellor von Hertling said that, in his honest conviction "with this serious question the protection and preservation of the crown and the dynasty is at stake." AMERICAN Continued From Page One. heading straight for the Ais'ne and possibly for their old positions on the Chemin Des Dames. It was not unexpected. The move, was in fact, because it was inevitable. While the pressure from the south was insistent, if not vigorous the onward drive north from Soissons on to the western end of the plateau, made their position between the two rivers, practically untenable. Face Machine Gun Fire. The extent to which the retreat has gone is not mentioned officially a;d therefore cannot e told, but it is permissible to say that substantial progress has ben made by the Americans. Orders reached the American commanders before daylight to send out patrols to investigate and their reports caused the immediate dispatch of supporting patrols. Before nightfall, a large part of the army which had been camping along the Vesle was in action on the slopes north cf the river. And there was action, notwithstanding tht the Germans already had taken the initiative in their withdrawal. Once more the German has employed the tactics of a machine gun defense and the Americans have been facing their fire all day. In the neighborhood of Bazoches" the Americans were advancing along the highway north of the river, while a little to the cast, they were south of the river. Bazoches and Fismes have been disputed possessions since the lines closed early in August and at the beginning of operations today they were held by the Germans. The Americaas, however, did not worry about them this time, but advanced along the river to points where crossings had been decided upon. Smoke arising from behind the German lines has been observed for the past two or three days. In some instances the cause is known to have been from the explosion of an ammunition dump fired by a direct hit from an allied battery, but the increasing number of smoke columns has given rise to the suggestion that the Germans, are burning such of their depot, structures and supplies as it is inadvisable to remove. Similar measures were adopted prior to the retreat north of the Marne and it is concluded that the German staff again is preparing a retrograde movement. Patrols sent out early in the day reported that the German retreat was under way. ITALIANS GAIN IN MOUNTAIN ATTACK (V,y Associated Press) VIENNA. (Via London) Wednesday, Sept. 4.

The president's proclamation for August 24 registration is on its way. The registration numbers for this registration have now been assigned. Order numbers will be assigned in a short time. GERMAN FORCES Continued From Page One. have reached a stage in their forward movement as to menace the German occupation of the territory north of the Aisne. General Mangin's troops are nearing Chemin-Des-Dames and the German forces facing the Americans to the right have but few defenses left them before they will be compelled to make a stand in or beyond the old Hindenburg line. Before General Mangin lines Laon and to the north La Fere, both critical positions for the Germans. With Laon and La Fere in French hands and the general allied line extending north to St. Quentin, Cambrai and Lille, the German plan of occupation in northern France would be severely tested, if not. completely upset. French cavalry advanced this afternoon from Baboeuf to the region of Mondeecourt on the Noyon-Chauny road and midway between the towns while Miracourt, scoutheast of Guiscard. was occupied this evening. Officers taken prisoner in the wood between these points had received orders to retreat to Betha'ncourt, northwest of Chauny. The officers received these orders at 1:30 p. m., just before the arrival of the French troops. There are indications that the Germans proposed retiring from this part of the line to the line Berlancourt-Ham-Sancourt. The speed of the French advance, however, is deranging the schedule for retirement so much that ioPsibly the enr ray will not find leisure to stop at Ham. Humbert's Men Advance. The maneuver which forced the retirement of the enemy over the front of Mont St. Simeon and the Canal Du Nord began Tuesday morning with an attack upon a strong position fortified and protected by wire entanglement and machine gun nests. The attack was preceded by aa artillery preparation of four hours. The infantry then went forwaid. enly to find that many centers of resistance had survived the shelling and the hardest kind of fighting ensued, the men often ccming hand to hand. Overcoming the resistance cf the Germans foot by foot, General Humbert's men broke the lins and today forced ahead rapidly, the advance at three o'clock being from fO'ir to seven miles in . depth. Guiscard fell into their hands this afternoon. The first army, in the meantime, took Libermont, Frenichos and Fretoy-Le-Chateau, southwest of Ham. General Mangin's men also made farther gains north of the Ailette, crossed the Vesle at several points and forced a passage cf the Aisne at the Bisa farm, between Venizel and Missy.

Fourteen men were held today out of scores seized by federal agents and the police as a result of the explosion of a bomb yesterday in the federal building which killed four persons, injured more than thirty others and did considerable damage to property. A night of activity on the part of federal agents and the police heads of the respective departments said they had obtained valuable information which encouraged them to believe they would apprehend the bomb thrower. The streets about the federal building were still patrolled this morning and it was only by the presentation of elaborate credentials that any one could enter the building to transact business.
