RETREAT OF HUNS . , i (Continued t'ram Pace One) break through at either point by the allies would spell disaster to the en emy. In Flanders the German strat egy seems to be the obliteration of points vulnerable to sharp assaults. Particularly is this noticeable along the Lys river soifth of Ypres. where the Germans are reported to have re moved all their artillery to the east sid of the river, andia little ;o the north around Wytschaete where the British have advanced their line nearly a mile and apparently with slight op position. The concentration of artillery1 of all calibers, including machines and large bodies of men in the region of Sois sons. where every nook and cranny of the rolling country contains hordes of defenders, proves the importance the enemy places fh holding this 'terri tory, while nothing is being left un done in the region around Rheims to strengthen in gut and man-power the German line against the assaults the Germans apparently realize are soon to come. No Breathing Spell. After virtually two months of hard fighting in which from Arras to the Maftie the Germans everywhere have been worsted, General Foch has given no outward indication that he is to permit the Germans breathing spell. The greater portion of the German de fensive system in the battle zone al ready has been demolished, or is in the process of demolition or of being made untenable. Less than 30 miles of the old Hindenburg line remain in tact. This is from the southwest of Camhral to La Fere, and the British and French are virtually upon it at distances ranging from a half-mile to six miles at the farthest where the British, and French are standing, west of St. "Quentin. When the drive be gan St. Quentin was 38 miles distant from the allied front. American Casualty List The Weather Comparative Local Beeord. 1111. ItlT. U11 Hltheet yesterday ..... V.

Leathernecks Revenge -' Death of Comrades After Teutons Shout "Kamerad" With the American Army' in France, Sept;. 9. Grim-faced, be grimed and stained after several days of desperate, continuous bat-, tie, a platoon of marines was firing rapidly but calmly and accurately t the Hun ranks. The foe's numbers were in the majority but the seasofdiers fire was proving apeedily evening.. Suddenlv the Huns dropped their rifles and cried 'Kamerad. ' The marines waited for the sur rendering enemy to appoach. When the. foe came within 200 yards their first lines dropped. They had been dragging machine guns by ropes at tached to their belts. About 30 marines fell before their comrades, with a yell of rage and revenge, surged forward. The bayonet let not a Hun survive. BRING. CHINESE BEFORE BOARD TO CLEAR RECORDS (Continued From Pare One) a dragnet all over the old Third and Eighth wards. -More than. 150 Chinese were picked up and taken to the city hall. Crafty Little Fellows. All the Chinese restaurants, laun dries and other places of business were given the once over. Wrhen the inmates were questioned by the po lice whether they had their registra tion certificates they professed not to understand and would repeat over and over "Me no gottee." When taken before the exemption officials, who had employed an jnterpretatof; to quiz fhem, practically each one was able to show the proper credentials and was released. - Checking Up On Them. The object of the raid, Mr. English , said, was to check up on the Chinese. A number of them were native-born citizens who had registered but paid no further attention to the matter. A number of them had left the citv without notifying the board, one fel low going back- o China to fight for his own country. ..',.' N "There's nothing really serious about the niatter," Mr, English con tinued, "we are justN trying to get a line on every Oinese and getur booka straightened up." ... ... . Find Opium Outfit.
