PULLAR & NIVEN - GERMANS CONFIDENT OF SOMME SUCCESS Have Most Powerful Aggregation of Any Single Battle Headquarters of the German Army on the Somme, July 25, via Berlin, July 26, to London, July 27.—The French and British, giving themselves no rest, are continuing their efforts to widen the sack-like position north and bl south of the Somme wherein they are now pinned on three sides by German armies. Both German officers and men are confident of their ability to hold their own and are aided by the most powerful aggregation of artillery which Germany has as yet accumu- lated in any single battle of the war.- Yesterday afternoon shortly after the correspondents had left the battle- fleld, an artillery duel of violent pro- portions signalized the remewal of the struggle. From the intensity of the bombardment it was soon evident that the main effort of allies would again be made on the line from Po- zieres to Hardecourt—the sector which was the scene of such bitter fighting from July 20 to July 23. The bom- bardment continued with increasing intensity the whole afternoon. Tow- ard evening an attack was made in strong force by a British division which was headed by picked troops and bomb throwers. The attackers were able to establish a foothold in the German lines but were later driven out by a German counter attack. The British also suc- seded in entering temporarily the German trench system in the vicinity of Longueval and Guillemont but here also were finally expelled. General Foch supported his British colleague with a determined attack south of the Somme. On the blood- drenched terrain between Estrees and Soyecourt he gained a few hun- dred metres in front line trenche south of Estrees but was unable to hold them.

Props., Buffalo, ¢ Sl 2 ROGER AND MARIE ‘ELOPE” WITH $40 Have a Grand Time Until the Money Gives Out New York, July When Roger Day, fourteen years old, appeared in the streets of Asbury park, N. J., vesterday afternoon In a cow boy suit and displaying a large revolver in a holster swung recklessly from a cartridge belt, the public soon learned that he and Marle Towne, sixteen, had “eloped” a week ago and that they returned only because all her money had given out in “dolling up” her young hero. Marie followed Roger to court when he was arrested on a charge of carrying a weapon, and after their parents had heen called the children told a remarkable story of their trav- els. Both live in Wanamassa, a su- burb of Asbury park. The boy’s father Joseph Day, is employed in a New York bank, and the girl's father, John Towne, is a real estate broker. Considering herself an heiress in possession of a fortune of $40, which she found in her mother's dressing 217. table, and believing Roger Day to be | the handsomest hero she had seen, Marie proposed that they go away to some high mountain crest, build their castle and live happily ever after. That w according to their testimony. Roger sald that would suit him all right, and last Thursday they started, Marie purchasing two rail- road tickets to Wilkesbarre, Pa. She had been there once on a plenic. She remembered Columbia Hills at Wilkesbarre, and her mind pictured a royal castle on the highest hill's crest. “At Wilkesbarre we bought a tent and started up the Columbia Hills,”™ sald the girl. “On the way we met a farmer, and he told us there were bears up there, so we went back to town and bought the pistol and cartridges and the cowboy suit, as Roger sald he wasn’t afraid of bears, but would have to have the right thing to fight them. He isn't afraid of anything. “Then we went away up in the hills and when we got tired we made our camp. As there were bears around we took turns in being on guard and sleeping, three hours on and three off. Every day we went into town and bought things until we had no more money and had to come back.” Both children insisted that they had stopped off on the way to Wilkes- barre and had been married and then had destroyed the marriage certifi- cate, but they could not remember where they were married. | The charge against Roger was dls- missed and the children were turned over to their parents. — — CHILLY STARE FOR NEW YORK MOOSE Progressives Must Play Second Fiddle in State Campaign New York, July 27.—There will be no Bull Moose domination of the re- publican state campaign in New York this year if the regular party man- agers, with State Chairman Tanner in the forefront of battle, have their wa This fact was made clear yesterday by men who had been discussing the situation with the state chairman. They left him with the conviction that returning progressives while wel- come back into the G. O. P. fold need expect no such prodigal-son feast as that being served to them at the Hughes headquarters. Chairman Tanner has an executive committee which will run the state campaign, its chicf business being to promote the re-elec- tion of Gov. Whitman and the other republican state officials, a United States senator to succeed James A. 0’Gorman, and a judge of the Court of Appeals to succeed Willard Bart- lett, the present Chief Justice, who will retire under the age limit at the end of this year. O1d Liners In Front Pews. Much criticism has been made he- cause Mr. Hughes and the republican national chairman, Willlam R. Will- cox, have given to George W. Per- kins, Harold L. Ickes, Everett Colby, William Flinn and other progressive leaders so prominent and influential a place in the management of the re- publican national campaign. The prominence accorded to the former bull moose leaders has greatly damped the ardor of old-line re- publicans in New York, Tllinois, In- diana and other states which politi- clans regard as vital to Mr. Hughes if he is to be elected. The resent- ment of regular republicans has he- come so pronounced that State Chalr- man Tanner and his assoclates are making it plain that, so far the New York organization is concerned, it proposes to keep republicans of es- tablished regularity and lovalty in the front seats on the New York hand- wagon Only ever just named Barnes is on the new republican executive committee. The fact that not even one prog slve Is on the committee has become a subject of comment. But Chalrman Tanner's friends point out that no curprise should be occastoned by rhat fact, for the reason that the executive committee members were naturally chosen from among the members of the republican state committee.

Not only were the pro- gressives given six of the seventeen memberships on the Hughes cam- paign committee, but the republican candidate for president has indicated his desire that the returning progres- sives be generously recognized in the campaign management. The difficulty about taking this view of the matter, in the eyes of the New York regulars, is that many offices are to be filled in the state this year. Not only are all of the important state of- ficlals seeking re-election, but forty- three representatives in congress, fif- ty-one state senators, 150 members of assembly and many county officials are to be elected in November. Before Chairman Tanner and h sociates put the “Welcome!” the door, returning progressive be required to declare their intentions in regard to these many candidacies for places less important than ‘he presidency, but of vital importance the lights in polltics all the state May lesser over Vote on Mexican Border.
