RHEIMS MUSEUM GONE Destruction of Cloth in Textile Factories Estimated at $70,000, O 0 0 France Fignres " Allies Face 51 Army Corps. PARIS, Dec. 1. The city of Armen tieres, on the River L.ys. around which has rased some of the severest fighting of the war, is now in a serious plight. The Germans began to shell the city about three weeks ago. A dispatch to the Havas Agency says that during the last two- days the bombardment has been particularly violent. One shell struck a gas reservoir, causing it to explode. The industrial life of the city is at a standstill. For the last two days there has been a Bcarcity of water and it is thought that the enemy may have cut the conduits. British Troops Patrol Streets. All civilians are required to be in doors by 8 P. M. and lights must be extinguished at 9. During the night the deserted streets are patrolled by squads of British troops. English air ships are continually hovering over the town and frequently have engagements with the aircraft of the Germans. The French official communication given out in Paris today says that yes terday the enemy showed considerable activity north of Arras. In an account of the bombardment of Rheims, which has been in progress intermittently for several weeks, the Temps asserts that the Archaeological Museum, containing Roman. Gallic and French colections. has been destroyed. Tapestries by Pepersack, the FlemiBh workman, also were ruined. The factories have been damaged to such an extent that the textile industry has suffered greatly. The loss duo to the destruction of cloth is estimated at 3SO.000.000 francs ($70,000,000). German Strength Estimated. A semi-official communication con cerning the German armies in the field made public here today says: "Germany at present has at her dis posal 25 H active army corps, c which 21 V4 are operating against France and four against Russia. Of the 33 German reserve army corps 22 are now em ployed against France and 10 i4 against Russia. "These figures show that there Is a total of 58 army corps, active or re serve, fighting for Germany on the two fronts, and not 100 army corps as has been erroneously stated by the Ger man government. "If the territorial units (Landwehr) of which nothing was said in the Ger man official note are taken Into ac count, it will be seen that eight Iand wehr array corps are engaged against France and seven against Russia that is to say, in all on the two front 30 ter ritorial divisions." Germans Retiring: From Dixmude. Telegraphing from Amsterdam the correspondent of the Central News says the German force before Dixmude has begun a general retlremDnt. Violent fighting is in progress to day along the Yser Canal, according to a telegram from Reuter's corres pondent at Slius. The roaring of heavy guns has been heard all day, and houses as far away as Sluis are shaken. " Inhabitants of all villages within one hour's march of the Yser battle front have been sent away. 6QRTIE REPULSED IX BEIGITJM French Also Report Appreciable" Ad vance in Argonne Region. PARIS.

STAND IS AID 10 ALLIES GERMAN ARGUES AMERICAN POSI TION IS UNNEUTRAL, Merit Is Not DIspnted State Depart ment Says Circumstance In Due to Germany's Isolation. BERLIN, via London, Dec. 1. The statement of the American Ambassador, atnes W. Gerard, regarding contra band Is generally reprinted in the German press. The Kreux Zeitung says that no objection can be raised to the standpoint taken, which is thor oughly conservative and comprehen sive. Count Ernest von Reventlow, in the Tages Zeitung, finds' the American standpoint technically correct, but ar gues that such shipments whereby only the allies benefit and whlcn constantly strengthen the military effort directed against Germany actually work out in practice as a support of one belliger ent to the detriment of another, and in a way are contrary to the spirit of neutrality. The statement credited to Ambassa dor Gerard is undoubtedly the view ex pressed by the united States In its re ply to Germany's protest that Germany and France were violating "the declar ation of London with regard to what was contraband." WASHINGTON. Dec 1. In reply to Count von Reventlow's contention that the American position on the declara tion of London was In a way contrary to the spirit of neutrality and actually worked to the benefit of the allies. State Department officials take the view that no other way seemed to be open to the United States in its fforts to observe neutrality than to take the stand it did. his position was outlined in Am bassador Gerard's official statement, which declared that the United Scates will insist that its rights and duties and those of its citizens In the present war be defined by the existing - rules of international law and the treaties of the United States with the belliger ents, independently of the declaration of London." If the stand of the United States works, as Count von Reventlow argues, to strengthen the allies. State Depart ment officials point out that it is due solely to Germany's position, which makes it difficult for her to benefit from shipments from the United States.

LONDON, Nov. 20 (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) Suspicion that the Germans have a base for sub marines, a supply station for aero planes and wireless apparatus in re mote parts of the Scottish coast may be rounded on fact. The activities of the German navy far from its own coasts, which have enabled it to scatter mines oft the north of Ireland and to sink the super dreadnought Audacious by mine or sub marine, furnished ground for that theory. The government has given it suffi cient belief to circulate placards in Scotland offering a reward of $500 for the discovery of any base tor hostile supplies of petrol or hostile wireless.

Judge Burnett Finds Prosecution pos sible for Sale of Liquor to Minors ' Eth Without latent. SALEM. Or., Dec. 1. (Special.) In an opinion by Justice Burnett today. the Supreme Court held that the owner of a saloon is liable and subject to prosecution if his bartender sells in toxicating liquor to a person under age. Justice Burnett said that the element of intent is not an ingredient of the crime of selling liquor to minors under precedents established in Oregon. E.- G. Brown, owner of a saloon in Jackson County, was indicted for sell ing liquor to a minor. He denied that he made the sale and offered the de fense that his bartender, whom he had repeatedly warned not to sell to mi nors, was the offender. In its demurrer to the indictment the defense charged that it did not state facts sufficient to constitute a crime. Circuit Judge Calk ins sustaining the demurrer. The Su preme Court reverses this decree, its opinion saying in part: "We find that apparently the author ities are in hopeless conflict as regards the culpability of the defendant under such circumstances. Precedents in his favor proceed upon the theory that no one can commit a crime in the absence every cell and fibre of the body demands pure blood. but drugs, extracts and alco holic mixtures are useless.
