We paused to interrogate them. I put the following questions to them: “‘Where were you before coming here?' “‘In the Champagne, facing Ta- ure.” “'How did you come north? “‘By train two days ago.' “‘Why did you surrender quickly?’ “‘We were without shelter, and the artillery tore our ranks to pieces. We felt ourselves to be in such a com- plete state of inferiority that nothing remained but to surrender. We then made a hasty decision and raised the white flag.’ “‘Did your commanders tell you of this offensive?’ ; “‘No. When we started we be- lieved we were going to Verdun. It was only when we were on the way that we learned that we were to fight against the English.’ “‘Are you satisfied to be out of the fight.' “The answer was given enthusias- tically in the the affirmative.” Clarinda Bank's Bookkeeper Bound Over to Grand Jury Clarinda, la., July 8.—(Special)— Guy Brent, the bookkeeper in the Clarinda Trust and Savings bank, who was accused in a d&ing statement by Vice President H.
