PARIS, June 21.—An_ extremely violent attack was thrown against the French positions east of Vauxhaillon by the Germans, who penetrated the French trenches, the French War Of- fice announces. The official statement says: “The enemy made an extremely violent attack on East Vauxhaillon, with fresh troops from the Russian front. Our counter attacks, breaking up the advantages gained in the first onset, were fiercely resisted. The Germans finally penetrated our front trenches south of Monkey’s Mountain and the Moisy Farm.

This is the first submarine whose sinking has been reported by: . |an American destroyer crew. The destroyer was cruising thru a calm |sea, when it sighted a periscope immediately ahead. The submarine submerged immediately. The U-boat was later sighted again by a German-born sailor in the crow’s nest, directly alongside the American destroyer. The destroyer turned quickly, putting full speed ahead, and ram- |med the submarine, and the crew plainly felt the impact of the cel- ion. Yesterday a German submarine torpedoed a British ship at Gate’s Port, where the American flotilla makes its base, while twe | American destroyers were convoying the merchant ship. The American destroyers landed the sarvivors safely and the submarine disappeared. ; AUSS WORKMEN WOMEN TRAITORS the oil companies of Casper, the Mid- One Thousand Cener Oil—Donated west Hotel and scores of individuals |b) the Company. have entered into the idea with unre- Fifty Western Exploration—Do- strained enthusiasm and before noon |nated by E.
