French reports, a complete «uc-
\, Trenches fiv« miles in length
about 4,000 yards In depts were
taken at this point.
This push forwarl gives the British
sion of the road from Lens to La
ee, which was used by the Ger-
lor moving troops and supplies
north and south and threatens to out-
flank the German troops which hold
the towns of Lena.
Hill No. TO. one of the positions
taken on the road, is less sthan a mile
, directly north of Lens, while Hul-
luch, which also fell into the hands
j)f,the British, is at the end of the
tad, near La Basste
It Is only twelve miles from Hul-
luch to Lille, the capital of northern
France.
North of the canal the British, al-
| though they fought all day yesterday,
- were unable to hold the ground
1 (allied and had to fall back to the
tranches, which they had left in the
morning. The attack, however, ac-
complished one purpose, as, accord-
ing to Field Marshal French, German
reserves were sent to check this move
thus giyinfc the BrJtish south of the
eaaal an opportunity to consolidate
tfceir new petitions unmolested
A somewhat similar maneuver took
place north and south of Menin road,
sast of Tpres and the results were the
■me. Nortl. of the road the British
were unable tc hold the ground taken
While to the south they gained about
800 yards of the German trenches and
consolidated the ground won. So far

Campaign in the East.
Some of the fiercest fighting of the
campaign Is in progress on the Rus-
sian front. The Germans continue
their furious attacks in an effort to
the Russians out of Dvlnsk,
»in Volhynia and Galicia the Rus-
continue to harrass the Austro-
Oermans, who had designs on Kiev,
from which town they are now further
away than they were a few weeks
•go.
General Ivanoff apparently Is de-
termined to hold tiack the Austro-
Oermans and his efforts are meeting
With a considerable measure of suc-
cess. The fortress triangle which in-
cludes Dubno, Rovao and Luts) is al-
most entirely in the possession of the
Russians.
In Galicia the Avstriang have been
driven back across the rivers which
run parallel to the border.
The Italians, like the rest of the

Paris, Sept. 26.—The French war

"Mori to the south we reached La-
folie and poshed to the north of The-
lus as far as the destroyed telegraph.
Ws took in the course of this action
about a thousand prisoners.
"In Champagne our troops con-
tinue to gain ground. After having
crossed on nearly the whole front be-
tween Auberive and Ville sur Tourbe,
the powerful network of trenches,
passages, small forts and shelters per-
fected by the enemy during long
months, our troops advanced toward
the north compelling the German
troops to fall back on their trenches of
the second position from three to four
kilometers to the rear. <The struggle
continues on the whole front.
"We have reached l'Alpine de Vede-
grange and passed the cabin on the
road from Souain to Somme Py and
the 'iut on the road from Souain to
Tahure. More to the east we are
holding the farm of Maisons de Cham-
pagne. The enemy has suffered by
our fire and In hand to hand struggles
very Important losses. He left in the
works which he abandoned considera-
ble material which has not yet been
inventoried. Already the capture of
twenty-four field guns is recorded.

creasing steadily and Is actually more
than sixteen thousand mien, not
wounded, of whom at least two hun-
dred are officer:!.
"The total nu-rt-e- of prVoners cap-
tured on the whole front by the allied
troops in two days is more than twen-
ty thousand men, not wounded."
BRITISH STATEMENT.
Loudon Claims Important Captures of
Men, Trenches and Guns.
London, Sept. 26.—The following of-
ficial statement was given out here
tonight:
"There has been severe fighting to-
day on the ground won by us yester-
day, th© enemy making determined
counter attacks east and northeast of
Loos.
"The result of this fighting Is that
except just north of Loos we hold all
the ground gained yesterday, including
the whole' of Loos itself.
"This evening we KCtook the quar-
ries northwest of Hulluch, which we
reivon and lost yesterday.
"We have in this fighting drawn in
the enemy's reserves, enabling the
French on our right to make further
progress. The number of prisoners
oollected after yesterday's fighting
amounted to 2,600. Nine guns have
been taken and a considerable num-
ber of machine guns.
"Our aeroplanes today bombarded
and derailed a train near Loffres and
another which was full of troops at
Rohult, near Saint Amand. The Val-
enciennes station also was bombarded.
"Saturday morning we attacked the
enemy south of La Bassee canal east
of Grenay and Vermelles. We cap-
tured his trenches on a front of over
five miles, penetrating his lines in
some places for a distance of 4,000
yards. We captured the western out-
skirts of Hulluch, the village of Loos
and the mining works around it, and
Hill 70.
"Other attacks were made north of
LaBassee canal, which drew a strong
reserve of the enemy. Hard fighting
occurred throughout the day with
varying success. At nightfall our
troops north of the canal occupied
their positions of the morning.
"We made another attack near
Hooge on either side of the Menin
road. An attack north of the road oc-
cupied Bellewaarde farm and ridge
but this subsequently was retaken by
•the enemy.
"In the attacks south of the road
we sained 600 yards of the toem)
trenches and wo consolidated the
ground won.
"The reports of captures included
about 1,700 prisoners and eight guns
beside several machine guns.
"The report in Friday's German
communication that we attempted to
attack Thursday south of LaBassee
canal but broke down under hostile
artillery fire is false. No attack was
attempted."
OPERATIONS DISCOUNTED.
Berlin Report Says Allies Fail in
Offeyslve Movement.
Berlin, Sept. *6.—The following of-
ficial communication was given out by
the war office tonight:
"The battles in the continuation of
British and French offensives, which
had been prepared for for months
have progressed without bringing our
assailants considerably nearer to their
aim.
"On the coast also British warships
have attempted to interfere by their
fire, especially in Zeebrugge, but with-
out result.
"In the sector of Ypres the enemy
suffered heavy losses and had no suc-
cess.
"Southwest of Lille the enemy suc-
ceeded in repulsing one of our divis-
ions near Loos, from its advance line
of defense to its second line. Natur-
ally we had considerable losses, in-
cluding materials of all kinds enclosed
between the two positions. A counter
attack is progressing favorably.
"We voluntarily evacuated the ruins
of the village of Souchez. Other at-
tacks on this front were easily repuls-
ed, at several points with the heaviest
of losses for the enemy.
"The 39th regiment of landwehr
especially distinguished itself. This is
the same regiment which sustained
the principal attack north of Neuvilic
in May.
"In the struggles between Rheims
and the Argonne, north of Perthes,
one German regiment was obliged to
evacuate Its advanced position by a
bombardment for seventy hours, and
retire to its second position, from one
to three kilometers behind the first.
However, all attempts to break
through failed."

passengers of a Southern Pacific Mex-
ican train were thrown Into a car con-
taining hay and the ear set on fire by
a band of Yaqui Indians Friday near
Torres, Sonora, according to radio ad-
vices received here today from Her-
mosillo via Guayma*. Only twenty
passengers have been accounted for
thus far, the others having been burn-
ed to death.
The Indians, according to the re-
port, numbered about sixty and were
deserters from one of the Mexican
factional armies. They first derailed
the train, which was running from
Campo Verde to Torres, after which
they vlaced the passengers, most of
whom were women and children, in
the hay car and applied the torch. So
far as Is known no Americans were
on the train. Torres is a small town
seventy miles north of Guaymas.

from alleged complicity in the recent
anti-American raids on the Texas side
of the border.
The appointment was made by
"First Chief" General Venustiano Car-
ranza at Vera Cruz and was received
in Matamoros last night.
Coming after Information Friday
from an authoritative source that Gen-
eral Nafarrate was to remain In Mata-
moros as commander of the frontier
division and alter the fight at Pro-
greso, this promotion Is regarded as
of great significance in consequence of
the delicate border situation and the
bearing that it may have pending the
appeal for recognition of General Car-
ranza.
The Carranza army diplomacy as
well as the fact that Nafarrate is re-
garded as one of the best fighters in
the Carranza army, is said here to
have prevented his transfer on the
grounds that he was endangering Car-
ranza's position before the Pan-Amer-
ican conference.
Nafarrate has consistently denied
that his men have participated In any
way In disorders on the American side
and he also has issued numerous state-
ments denying charges that he per-
sonally approved of the activities of
certain Mexicans on the American
side. Tt has been charged that he
shielded Anlceto Pizana and Luis De-
laRosa, alleged leaders In border
troubles, after American military au-
thorities here had suggested to him
that they be detained for Investigation.
The whereabouts Of these men is un-
known here.
"Quiet over the whole district," was
the statement one met at the head-
quarters of the various border patrols
today. Since Friday's battle near Pro-
greso and the fight at McAllen's
ranch, no disorders have been re-
ported.
No further reports have been re-
ceived by Major ISdward Anderson at
Harlingen as to Private Riehard J.
Johnson, of the Twelfth cavalry, who
has been missing since Friday morn-
ing following the Progreso flgllt and
hope of 'finding him has been virtually
given op. Soldiers in the Progeso Tl-
cinlty, however, are continuing the
search for Johnson.
The body of Private Henry W. Btub-
blefield of Troop C, Twelfth cavalry,
who was killed in the Progreso fight,
was sent this afternoon to his father
