FARES. Oct. M, Fighting baa con
tinued In the Champagne district and at
Ijl Ceurtlna with limited fluctuations, 'ao
eordlng to the announcement made by the
Frnc.h war office this afternoon.' The
stubborn Frenoh reaiataoca and the of
fensive activity of the French troops
checked the counter attacks of the Ger
means. The text of the communication
follows:
"The elose fighting In the Champagne
district has continued. In the center of
the position known as La Courtlne and
the fluctuations of the tide of battle have
fceen held to a limited area. The stubborn
resistance of our troops and their imme
diate return to the offensive ware suc
cessful In breaking the counter attacks
of the enemy.
"A lively attack to the northeast of
Masai gea made us master of a German
trench close to the positions recently con
quered by ba.
"Army of the Orient: During the day of
October 23 Bulgarian forces attacked the
French forces In the region of Btrumltsa,
along the entire front. They were com
pletely repulsed. The Information, ac
cording to which French forces have been
repulsed on the right bank of the Vardar
river is erroneous."
Postof f ico Thieves
Get 8190,000 Stamps
WASHINGTON, Oct. M.-Postofflce
burglaries have been so numerous of late
that aa order went forth today to alt
postmasters except of the first clsss
throughout the country to keep on Hand
a smaller number of stamps and other
papers of a commercla value and to
guard them more carefully.
Reports to the Postofflce department,
accounting for last year's business, shows
that 1.40 claims, aggregating a loss of
1190.000 resulted from burglaries of post
offices. Inspectors were unable In most eases
to find any trace of the stolen goods
tacuss of thr. lack tf Identification marks.
Their Investigations, however, have led
department officials to believe that stamp
brokers In a number of the larger cities
make it heir business to dispose of stolen
goods. The department is endeavoring to
develop some means for identifying
tamps and other papers.

In closing- the argument for the state
of Nebraska, Wi Ii E. Reed, attorr.ev
general, made an argument which was
highly commended to Trie Pee by Mr.
McVann and Chairman Clarke. He ar
med that ilnee the Interstate Com.nc-ce
rommlaalon muat not allow unjiml dis
crimination, agalnat any person or lo
cality. It Is not sufficient that cemplain
anta Introduced the Interstate rate and
compere with ratea In order No. 19, hut
they must not overlook this fact that the
state of Nebraaka la Just as much a lo
cality aa either of the complaining olth.
Jobber' lair,
He ssld If the order Is to afford a means
for unjust discrimination against Norfolk
and Columbus ss well as Omaha a id
Lincoln, that this Is not a Jobbers- case
In fact, because they do not pay the
freight. The one end one-quarter million
consumers residing In Nebraska are In
the end to pay the 11.600,009 of revenue
which the carriers assert that th"y will
lose.
It would be an unjust dlscrlmlnstlon
against the people to re-establish the
former rate and thereby favor St. Jo
seph, Ksnsss City, Council Biurrs ena
Bloux City. There should be but one
rate.
Each state honestly and fairly could
make a fair rate and the same total of
all rates make the Interstate rate. No
matter what name you may call It, to
remove rate order No. 1 Is to say to
each state In the union that your state
commissioners and state legislatures aro
useless in so far as making any rates
are concerned.'
Chairmen of state commissions should
sit and assist the Interstate Commerce
commission when rates are to be changed
when states are Interested.
Rnasreata Way of Adjastment.
At the conclusion of his argument Mr.
Reed suggested that it might be a good
plan for the Nob rusk a commissioners and
the railroads Interested to get together
with tho members of the Interstate
merce commission for the purpose of an
adjustment.
In closing ths case C. C. Wright, repre
senting the Northwestern and other rail
roads declared that the problems in
volved are so tied up that it Is Impossible
for the state to handle them and that
only the Interstate Commerce commis
sion can settle the qunstlons at Issue. He
admitted that Council Bluffs Is entitled
to the same Nebraska rates as Omaha.

GERMANS HELD ON
CONSPIRACY CHARGE
Men Accused of Plotting to Destroy
Munition Shipi Turned Over to
Federal Official!.
NEW YOHK, Oct. 26. Robert
Fay, a lieutenant in the German
army; Walter L. Scholi and Paul
Daeuche were arraigned in Wee haw
ken, N. J., police court today on
charges In connection with an al
leged plot to blow up steamships sail
ing from New York with munitions
for the allies. The three men were
discharged by the court, but were
Immediately arrested by federal
agents on charges of conspiracy
sworn to by Chief Flynn of the secret
service.
Fay and Brhols were brought to New
Tork in custody cf the federal officers.
They will be arraigned later before
t'nlted States Commissioner Houghton on
the corr.pUInt sworn to by Chief Flynn.
The complaint rhsrges that the three, in
conjunction with Dr. Herbert Klensle.
held In I25.0H0 ball yesterdsy, and Max
Iireltung, still at liberty, conspired to
commit
an offense against the United
Ft a tea. After fa lima- to locate Breitung
at either his home or office here, police
sent out today a general alarm for him.
Daeche said he had nothing in common
with the others and did not care to go to
New York without arraignment. He wss
then turned over to an assistant of Chief
Flynn.
Wanted to Destroy Chemical Plnnts.
Chief Flynn announced today that he
was In possession of information which
showed that Fay had told a man named
Velg that the proper way to stop the
shipment of munitions to the allies was
to blow up ths chemical works. He ex
plained that it was useless to try to blow
up shell snd powder works because those
plants could maks repairs easily, asd the
worst damags that could be done them
would delay them only a week or so. If
the chemlcsi plants were attacked, they
would be at ths fountainhead. and re
pairs could not quickly be made.
According to the chief. Fay asserted
that when he left Holland for America
on the ateamer Rotterdam he carried a
letter to a high official, but on ths first
dsy out he destroyed it, fearing he might
be searched and the letter found.
Chief Flynn, when asked if he consid
ered that Captain Boy-Ed and Captain
Von Papen had been Implicated in any
way, replied that Fay absolved them from
all participation.
When Fay and Scholi reached New
York shortly after noon, they were taken
to the office of Chief Flynn at the Bat
tery, where It Is understood they were
again questioned. Arrangements were
made to keep them there till their ar
raignment at 4 p. m. before United States
Commissioner Houghton.
Daeehe Arralarnmeat Postponed.
Daeche, arraigned later la Jersey City
before United Btates Commissioner Car
penter, ssked for delay In the preliminary
examination and his case was put over
until November t. Ball was fixed at !
l,000, In default of which he was locked
up.
In addition to the Charge of ceaa piracy,
covering cases of the other prisoners and
Breitung. Dseche also was charged with
having and concealing a high explosive
for the purpose of blowing up a ship in
the Jurisdiction of the United 8tatee.
United States Marshal Kavanaugh, who
preferred the charges, did not go into
details concerning the additional charge.
Evidence May Bo Inaaf flelent.
WASHINGTON, Oct. M. Officials of
the Department of Justice expressed
doubt today whether the federal govern
ment can make out a case against the
men Implicated in the plot to blow up
munition ships sailing from the United
States. Detailed Information aa to what
evidence has been collected by the New
York police of the secret service was still
lacking today and the'department will not
reach a decision In the matter until all
data has been examined.
