They are remarkable for the degree of cunning and ingenuity displayed in the evident purpose to do all possible injury to Germany's European enemies through cutting off their resources in America while at the same time avoidiag as far as pos- sible incurring the wrath of the American people by actual destruction of life in this country and Canada. The three telegrams comprising this series form the natural complement to the correspondence already dis- closed by the state department con- veying absolutely convincing evidence of a well calculated and systematic violation of American neutrality by " Germany during a period of moro than a year preceding the besginning FIERCE FIGHTING STILL ON AT YPRES French and English Hammering Away at the German Lines HEAVY LOSSES INFLICTED Mud and Water Encountered As the Right Flank, Composed of British Troops, Advance Amid a Rain of Fire From Machine Guns Hidden in Buildings. Field Headquarters of French Army in France and Flanders, Oct. 10—The French advance north of Ypres today reached the village of Veldhoek, south of the forest of Houtholst making the depth of the forward movement about one mile. On their way through the marsh- land where progress only was possible over rapidly laid boardwalks, some- times exceeding a mile In length, the French rushed and overcame the re-_ sistance of numerous blockhouses con- structed of reinforced concrete and bristling with machine guns. Several extensive farmhouses, organized to delay the attackers and only demol- ished partly by the preparatory artil- lery fire, also were taken. There is evidence on all sides that the Germans sustained severe losses. The French casualties were few, as on the occasions of the last two attacks of ruthless submarine warfare and the breach of relations between Ger- many and the United States. The statement follows: “The secretary of state publishes the following two telegrams from the German foreign office to Count Von Bernstorff in January, 1915: ‘January 3. Secret.

In thl! latest step of exposures the state department believes it has re- moved the last doubt that Count Von Bernstorft was the directing head in America of the German machine for esplonage. The revclations of the part played by Jeremiah O'Leary was mot unexpected and the fact that his name was suggested by Sir Roger Casement, who later was executed In England on the charge of treason, al- ready had been indicated in earlier disclosures made by the department.

The blow struck by the British and French forces against a wide section of German defenses between Hout- holst forest and Broodseinde has re- sulted in another great success. Over much of this front the attacking troops swept forward to a depth of 1,200 yards or more overrunning many important strongholds of the shat- tered enemy. This afternoon the Allies were dig- gingin elmost on the outskirts of Houtholst forest, the British were be- yond Poelcappelle after sanguinary hand to hand fighting and further south they had gained the Passchen- ridge within less than 1,000 yards of Passchendale thereby wrech- yvards of Passchendaele, thereby wrenching away almost all that re- mained to the Germans of their fa- mous Passchendaele-Gheluvelt ridge system of fortifications. Again the German losses have been great and reports from all along the line indicate that their organization and morale were hit hard. The attack was launched as dawn was breaking. The French army on the left flank of the British were fac- ing probably the worst section along the line for the ground over which they had to advance was interlaced with little streams and the rain had turned the ground into a bog. ‘The French pushed forward rapid- ly, however, reducing numerous Ger- man pill boxes and redoubts, and had accomplished all they had set out to do by 10 o’cleck. This meant that they were some 500 yards beyond Mangelaere and almost at the edge of the Houtholst forest. Heavy casual- ties were inflicted on the Germans by preliminary bombardment and dur- ing the fighting. At an early hour the French reported the capture of several hundred prisoners and also that their own losses were light. The northern flank of the British attack had to cross the Broenbeek riv- er and much mud and water was en- countered. The troops, however, ne- gotlated the crossing without much delay the region was studded with concrete redoubts and the embank- (Continued On Third Page).

Appropriation of $3,500 for use by the War Bureau will be sought at a meeting of the common council this evening, in addition to other activities incidental to the prosecution of the war “behind the firing line”. The War Bureau has already been established and its members have performed con- siderable work in connection with their office but have found themselves handicapped by lack of funds. Mayor Quigley believes the should make an appropriation for the commission, the money to be used in many instances in emergency cases. That the bureau needs permanent headquarters and a fund sufficient to carry on the work was demonstrated vesterday, Mayor Quigley said today, when two women, in need of immedi- ate financial relief, called at his office. Through the selective draft act these women have been deprived of support, and they wanted money at once. The mayor also had a number of callers who desired to communicate with relatives in the military service of the United States but whose addresses were not known. One of the purposes of the War Bureau will be to maintain a list of New Britain men in the army with their addresses. In addition, the bureau will also forward relief sup- plies consisting of eatables not in- cluded on the army menu and com- forts for the inner and outer man. The ten aims of the War Bureau as outlined today by Mayor Quigley are: 1.—To centralize all war activities, now being done by local committees in haphazard fachion, often causing duplication of work. 2.—To keep record of those in vari- ous branches of the national service. 3.—To do all research and investi- gation work necessary for the various branches of the state and national government. 4.—To raise money for the enlisted men the various camps and bran T*the service. s 5.—To relieve those in need who have sent fathers, sons or brothers to the front 6.—To assist those desiring to com- municate with men in the service. (This need is felt keenly where par- ents or relatives of the men are foreign born.) 7.—To act as an agency for the dis- tribution of city food products. 8.—To assist in obtaining subscrip- tions for government loans. 9.—To secure free medical attend- ance for the families of the men who have gone to the front and who cannot afford to pay for such service. 10.—In fact, this bureau will act as a clearing house for the work of all the local war committees such as the food and fuel committee, relief committees, municipa! farm commit- tee, local town committee of the State Council of Defense, Four-Minute Men and various relief committees.

Yesterdey's downpour of rain was a great disappointment to players and fans alike, but has been forgotten in the eagerness of the ball teams to resume the contests and the rooters to get a look at the contend- ers for the title. The two days' let-off has added zest to the series and a tus- sle worthy of championship teams is looked for today. Chicago is eager to win in straight and New York must take the third game to increase the team’s chances of finally winning out. A cold northwest wind and an over- cast sky gave the fans little to hope for at 8 a. m. The rain that caused a postponement of yesterday's game ceased falling at dusk but over head conditions this morning were not promising. With anything like fair weather the Polo Grounds, with seats for more than 38,000 persons will hold a ca- pacity crowd. Despite last night's rain and the cold penetrating north- west wind, many fans turned out again during the night and waited for the opening of the ball park gates. The crowd began to grow with the first streaks of dawn and when the gates to the two dollar unreserved seats in the and stand and to the dollar opened was as the average world's of other vears. n checks possessed by the fifteen thousand persons who braved vester- day’s cold rain and sat in the uncov- ered seats in the downpour were hon- ored for today's game only. Special gates were opened for the hélders of the checks. A large number of the rain checks fell into the hands of speculators. Early reports from the groundkeep- ers assured the management of the New York club that if no more rain fell the diamond would be in good condition. The infleld was covered when yesterday’s rain began and is dry and fairly fast. The outfield, how- ever, is somewhat heavy but not too soft to make an appreciable difference to the fielders. The four umpires made a trip to the Polo Grounds for the purpose of reporting to the national commission. Betting on the rcsult of the series has not undergone any change, 2 to 1 and 3 to 1 that the White Sox would take the series found few takers. It was admitted by Giant rooters that the two defeats sustained by them in Chicago had severely shaken the team as a whole and had to some ex- tent demoralized the pitching staff. Manager McGraw’s pitching plans were shot to pieces by the Sox batters, and the close followers of the game feel that the enforced layoff has helped the team to pull itself together and has given the twirlers a chance to get a good rest. By the same token New York sup- porters argue the idleness did not do. the Sox any good. The western team was on edge and eager to go in and finish the Giants. The pitchers were going good. While Rariden performs well be- hind the bag the Giants need a heavier hitter as a catcher, since the team as a whole has not come up to McGraw’s expectation in the base hit i TTnless there in another upset in the schedule the two teams will play here tomorrow. In the event New York wins at least one game the teams will travel west on Friday and play the fifth game in Chicazo. Manager Rowlands of the Sox says he feels confident that his men will win in four straight and duplicate the feat of the Boston Braves against the Philadelphia Athletics in 1914, The general opinion is that it will he Cicot vgainst Sallee on the mound McCarty is coming around rapidly and if the series is drawn out he may get into the game ugain, behind the plate. it WEATHER Hartford.
