The ground captured on April 2 north of Ypres was still retained yes- terday in spite of the attacks of the enemy. Farthe- east we continued our attack and took by storm the Zolart farm southwest of St. Julien, as well as the villages of St. Julien and Kersselaere, and advanced vic- toriously toward Gravenstafel. Dur- ing these engagements about 1,000 Englishmen were taken prisoners and several machine guns were captured. “A British counter attack against our positions west of St. Julien was repulsed earlv this morning 'with very heavy losses to the enemy. “West of Wiel attempts of the British to make an attack were quenched at every start by the fire of our artillery “In the Argonne we repulsed an attack by two French battalions north of Four- De-Parle, Defent of French. eavy “In the Meuse hills, southwest of Com- | bres, the French suffered a heavy defea We began an attack at this point and in the rush broke through many French lines lying one behind the other.

Twenty- four French officers and 1,600 men, with seventeen cannon, remained in our hands after these engagements, “Between the Meuse and the Moselle fighting at close range occurred only at certain places on our southern front, the fighting at Aillys not having yet come to a conclusion.

Block Progressive Legislation. Senator Quinby talked for forty min- utes, dwelling largely on the influences that blocked what he believed to be pro- gressive legislation. “And all this was done by means of the nineteen wooden Indians,” he repeated. “For they were a majority. They had no mind of thelr own, They dared mot make a move ex- cept as they were told, They were the solid nineteen. Sixteen of them were democrats and three were republicans, but they were bound together with a tie that never gave way. The other four- teen senators were free agents, but {ways the solld nineteen wooden Indians held the majority.” He pointed out that when he had. in- troduced a resolution proposing an in- vestigation of certain lobbyists for the corporations, the next morn'ng a resolu- tion was introduced to expunge the - vestigation resolution, and that the nine- teen voted for expnuging.

JESS WILLARD NOW OUT APTER GASH Champ Pugilist Who Put Johnson to Sleep is to Put His Money Into Farms and First Mortgages. | APPEARS BEFORE FULL HOUSE| Jess: Willard, in Omaha for ex-| hibitions at the Gayety until Wednes- day afternoon, is tending strictly to the business and financial perq\unneai of the world championship heavy-! weight title, now that he has dis- charged his duties as a candymaker by making the chocolate drop. “1 started out to bring the title back to white men,” asserted Wil- lprd, ‘‘and now that is done, I'm going to make all T can and put it into farms, first mortgages and real estate, where it can’'t burn up, or; blow away. | “Jack Johnson advised me to save my money, and I've been getting lots of other advice, but I've gone flat financially two or three times, and don't need advise any more on how to keep my money." Handles Smile Well. Always smiling, except when he lets his winning smile wane to replace it with an even brighter one, Willard was met by a reporter before his first Gayety exhibition, and he affably leaned over to greet the mere mortal, after first ducking through’ his dressing room door to avold the stare of admiring chorus girls. Then he draped his six-feet-six of glant muscle over one side of his room, and smiled. Jones a Champ Maker. Since Jess is not much of a talker, he gets help in that line from his manager, Tom Jones, who wears a braided suf silver headed came and a big diamond, and is far famed himself as the maker of three champs—Billy Papke, Ad Wolgast and Big Jess. And Jones makes no bones of the fact that Jess is entitled to mak: all he can get, while the making Is good In carrying out the idea, Willard and Jones cleverly left admirers “holding the sack” after the show," by leaving the Gayety by way of the front door, after allowing a big crowd to gather in-the round an auto placed there as @’ The seekers of a free look didn’t tumble to the situation until long after Jess and Jones had run out of the lobby, down the street, around the corner and had then hot-footed it to their quar- ters at Hotel Rome. ‘The Willard party, which also includes Walter Monahan and Tex Dowd, trainers and sparring partners, and George Creel, & newspaper man, was given a warm re- ception at the depot upon its arrival from Kan: City Sunday morning. A good sized crowd also greeted the champ and his assoclates at the hotel, around the | theater and wherever else he appeared during the day. A capacity audience saw his exhibition last night. i The glant Kansas cowboy spent the | morning in an aute tour of the city and visited the South Omaha horse yards, watching French buyers inspect animals for war use Willard didn’t meet his family in Kan sas, as originally planned, so still mays “Hello” to his wife by frequent tele- grams. He will meet them in California in July. He is quite peeved that pictures | of his family were secured free, as he believes in getting all the money that can possibly be attached to his newly won title. He says he would like some local ring talent to play with, but since whipping Johnson no Omaha glove art- ists have volunteered to be toyed with Manager Jones says that Willard will promptly meet anybody for the title, i there is as much money in it as in ex- hibitions. In his three-round sparring exhjbition with Walter Monahan, Willard showed that he is much quicker, more more skillful than when Omaha last February an inch taller, has one and quarter inches more reach and weighs seven pounds lighter than Jack Johnson, so his and he showed in Monahan is half g0 with Willard gives a good idea of how the two fighters compared at Ha- vane.
