Artillery Fire Main Activity in
Lorraine; Yankee Troops
Dominate No Man's
Land.
With the American Army on the
Lorraine Front, Sept. 21. Fires
were observed today in the town
o Dommartin, behind the German
line on this front, together with
a heavy movement of men and wag
on trains behind the line. These
were taken to indicate a possible
further retirement of the Germans,
A harassing fire was kept up at
different points, however, against
the allied line and on positios in
the rear.
With the exception of an exchange
of artillery fire, there was little ao
tivity.
The Germans are using gas shells
to a limited extent, especially for
sprinkling wooded areas. The towns
of Vilcey and Xammes and the
Presle woods, toward the eastern
part of" the front southeast of Metz,
are points that are being more heav
ily shelled by the Germans.
The American guns are returning
the fire and are harassing the Ger
mans to an equal degree.
No attempt was made by either
side today to advance. The Ameri
can patrol continued to dominate
the greater part of the space be
tween the lines.

Why was the paper that has per
sistently flayed Sheriff Clark in his
race for re-election to that office al
lowed to obtain so easily a group of
pictures which were reproduced in
its issue Friday afternoon, under the
heading: "34 Whisky Bottles
Found Outside County Jail Win
dows; Arc Empty?" And why were
those bottles so easily accessible?"
Sheriff Clark would like to know
and he believes the accompanying
photo will supply the answer.
The picture is of a group of 32
pints of whisky of various brands
taken in a raid on the home of
Tony Zimmerley at Waterloo, Neb.,
lhey repose in the room of the
county jail where other confiscated
liquor is held.
"On August 9, Deputy Sheriff
Walker and State Agent. Murphy
made a raid on the home of Tony
Zimmerley, in Waterloo." the sher
iff at once recollected as he gazed I
at the Daily News' "story." "Zim-1
merley was not at home, but his
family informed the officers that he
was at that time out with John
Hofeldt, assisting him in his cam
paign on the democratic ticket for
the sheriff's job. The officers
searched the house and 32 pint bot
tles of assorted brands of whisky
were found and taken to the county
jail. A search was: instituted for
Zimmerley, but he anticipated his
arrest and walked into court. He
pleaded guilty to illegal possession
of liquor before Judge Moran and
was fined $100.
"The raid on Zimmerley's home
was planned in-the state agent's of
fice, following numerous complaints
from Waterloo that Zimmerley had
been 'peddling' his wet wares in a
bold manner throughout that terri
tory. "Is it not possible that the Daily
News, in its eagerness to 'get' me
around the county jail, I have asked
repeatedly that the county commis
sioners supply a gate on the stair
way of the fifth floor, whereon is
the jail. With a key to the landing
door, entrance can easily be gained
to the roof of the building and then
there is absolute freedom all around
the ledges and even to the barred
cells. The grand jury twice recom
mended that this deficit be remedied,
but the county commissioners have
made no effort to see that this is
done. A whole carload of whisky
was used as a medium by . close i iwti. mM k. rA

"The city has been divided geo

Resolution Uncertain
Washington, Sept. 21. Despite
the announcement of Senator
Jones of New Mexico that he
would call-up the woman suf
frage resolution next Thursday in
the senate there was a probability
tonight that the plan may not be
carried out. Difficulty over the
arrangement of pairs for absent
members is being experienced and
fears were expressed that this
again might cause a postponement
of final action on the measure.
Supporters of the measure,
while admitting that the attitudes
of Senators Bennett of South
Carolina, Culberson of Texas,
democrats, arid Drew of New
Hampshire, republican, are still in
doubt, claim the resolution will be
adopted by a majority of two
votes. Opponents of the resolu
tion declare they will defeat it by
that vote.

menceau told him, the senator said,
that "America's prowess was "the
salvation of the hour," while the
British prime minister declared that
"the influence of President Wilson
and America upon the institutions
of Britain and the spirit of its peo
pie was equivalent in itself to a new
British army.
"The humliation of the German
military, by the fresh troops of
America has filled Germany with
wonder and terror, the senator
said. "It recognizes that if such can
be the ,result of the first move of
America with its first installment of
troops, the millions who are waiting
and who will soon be at uermany s
doors mean destruction for the mil
itary hopes of Prussia. .
"German rulers see that this
American surprise is the sure fore
runner for the German people clean
ing their house of the military mon
sters and establishing authority at
Berlin of their own choice, which
will no longer deceive them as to the
truth of their military situation nor
impoverish them to maintain a war
of destruction of peaceful nations in
order to give glory to military mas
ters and kingships and principalities

Italians Beat Off Attacks
Along Mountainous Front
Rome, Sept. 21. Attempts made
by Austro-Hungarian forces yester
day to attack at various points along
the mountainous front in northeast
erly Italy were repulsed in front
of the Italian lines, says the official
statement issued today by the War
office. Harassing heavy gun fire
prevailed on the entire front.
Duma Issues Appeal.
Amsterdam, Sept. 21. At a recent
meeting of the members of the Rus
sian duma and the Russian imperial
council at Kiev it was resolved, says
a telegram from that city, to issue
an appeal to the public opinion of
all governments to put an end to
the "bolshevist terror."
The Ukrainian council, the dis
patch adds, has decided to send a
protest to all countries against the
arrest and shooting of Ukrainian
subjects in Russia and the "in
human" form of political struggle
now existing. The Ukrainian gov
ernment also has decided to ask
Germany to undertake the protec
tion of Ukrainian Russia.

Australian.
The British forces have yielded
part of their gains at some places,
but a net advance of a quarter of a
mile in depth has been made and
numerous machine gun redoubts
have been stormed.
More than 400 prisoners were
taken on one part of the front.
It rained heavily during the
night and at the time of the assem
bling of the assaulting troops, but
the concentration was carried out
without delay under a heavy bom
bardment. The enemy was plainly
apprehensive of a further defeat and
his divisions were waiting for the
British advance. ; i :.
The ground over which the battle
was fought was broken and very
difficult to clear. The gullies were
full of machine guns and a slight
ridge, which stood between the ad
vancing British and the Hindenburg
defenses, gave the enemy a consid
erable advantage.
During the night a local attack on
the front of La Bassee yielded the
chateau and ruins of the church of
the village of Violaines, which js less
than a mile northwest of La Bassee,
together with 130 prisoners. .
Between La Bassee and Lens the
enemy shows great nervousness. A
hostile attack delivered . yesterday
around Hulluch was intended to test
the British strength.
