Soldiers Protected From French Profiteers PARIS, Sept. 24 (Correspondence of The Associated Press) "One tin of lobster, one tin of sardines, and a dozen eggs" said the grocer In a little town of the Mayenne department. "How much?" said one of the four American soldiers who were making the purchase. "Thirty francs" (about $6) was the reply. "Here's the money. Will you please give us a bill?" "Certainly gentlemen." The four Americans had been long enough in the country to know a thing or two. They took the bill to the mayor and the mayor promptly closed that grocery store for a month, fining the proprietor 500 francs (about $100) in addition.

All sorts of war trophies from the batle fields of France are shown and a special lecturer aceonvpanies the train. There is absolutely no admission fee and all citizens are invited to see the exhibit. The train is scheduled to reach Richmond from Greenfield at 6:45 o'clock on Thursday evening and the Pennsylvania railroad company will arrange to park the cars at some point convenient to the public. The train will remain in Richmond over night. GERMANS FROM Continued From Page One. American divisions fighting between the Argonne forest and the Meuse river have slowly but steadily moved ahead and seem to have won their objectives along that section of the front. Berlin reports that American attacks were repulsed and that the Germans regained some ground near Argonne forest. German troops are being rushed from inactive sectors to bolster the lines under attack by the Americans and it is probable that progress there will be very slow. There are indications that Turkey will follow Bulgaria's example in giving up the war. Following the absolute defeat of her armies and the defection of Bulgaria there would seem to be no other step possible for that country. Gen. Allenby's troops are reported to be two and a half miles from Damascus. GERMAN STATEMENT. BERLIN.
