MANY PRISONERS TAKEN French Say Retirement Is Due to Floods Which Threatened Lines of Communication Bel gians Destroy Depot. j ' LONDON'. Jan. 14. The German and French accounts of the fighting on the western front agree In declaring- there kas been a desperate battle near Bois ons. The issue is not wholly decided, but the Germans are believed to have Brained ground northeast of the town, while the French wholly failed to make progress. The French are now described as taking up new positions n the south bank of the Aisne. Emperor William in person directed the battle on the plain of Vregny. In spired by his presence, the German troops cleared this Important elevated position of the enemy. Westrade Reduced to Ruins. The German official report, received Jrom Berlin by wireless, said: "In the western theater of the war. In the dunes near Nieuport and south west of Ypres. artillery combats are rolng on. The enemy directed an ex tremely strong fire on Westende. which they soon will have entirely destroyed. Th-ir torpedo-boats disappeared quick ly ns soon as they received our fire. -In continuation of their activities n January S. northeast of Soissons. our troops again made an aitaca. on the heights of Vregny and cleared this elevated plain of the enemy. In a pouring rain and deeply sodden clay, trench after trench was taken by storm until after dark and the enemy was driven back to the border of the ele vated plain. Fourteen French officers and 1130 men were taken prisoners, and four cannon, four machine guns and a searchlight were captured a brilliant feat for our troops under the very eyes of their uppermost war lord.

The early French official statement agreed as to the determined character of the fighting near Soissons. The Vr.nch could make no material prog ret on the left of their Soissons line. They held their positions on the center and were compelled to yield on their right. Brlsiaaa Destroy Ammualrlon Depot. Thn text of the French report was: -in Belgium, the firing of our artil lery was interfered with by the fog: nevertheless the cannonading yesterday was very spirited In the vicinity of NieuDort and around Ypres. Certain de tachments of Belgian troops blew up. at a point to the southeast ol stuyveKnes kerke, the buildings on a farm which were serving the enemy as a depot for Ills ammunition. "Between the Lys and the Oise. In the region of Lens, our artillery was suc cessful in dispersing a group of Ger man pioneers cn the outskirts of the hamlet of Angres. and it bombarded effectively the German trenches to the southeast of the Chapel of Notre Dame de Lorette. "To the north of Soissons there was determined fighting all day yesterday. The engagement was localized to a sec tion of the ground to the north of Crouy. We hold only the first slopes of these hills. On our left, in this field, our counter attack made slight prog ress, but without succeeding in record ing a material advance. On the center we retained our positions around the village of Crouy. In spite of the repeat ed efforts of the enemy to dislodge us, but on the east in front of Vrcguy we were obliged to yield. Aline Coatlanes la Flood. "The continued flood stage of the Jliver A!sne has carried away several of Die regular bridges as well as some ol the temporary foot bridges which we threw across the river. The lines ot communication for our troops were con. aeiiuentiy made uncertain. Under these conditions, we established ourselves ou the south bank of the river in the re gion between Crouy and Missy, with bridge heads on the north bank in our ltossessloti. "Along the remainder of the front of the Kiver Aisne there was yesterday nothing more than artillery exchanges. "In Champasrne the region of l'erthes continued to be the scene of local en gagements for the possession of Ger man trenches on the second and third lines of defense. To the north of Heaust-Jour we blew up some of the en emy's positions, to make impossible his laying of mines. The Germans, believ ing they were being attacked, manned their trenches. We then opened a vio lent artillery and Infantry fire on these positions." Attacks Stopped. Paris Sj. The later report of the French War Office issued from I'aris says: "Last night our troops were success ful In a sudden attack with the object of overwhelming the trenches recently constructed by the Germans to the northeast of Fourquescourt. north of Jioye. department of the Somme. "The attacks of the enemy in the region to the north of Soissons have been stopped. "We were obliged to abandon several cannon as the result of the breaking down of a bridge. We have rendered all of them unfit for use. The Germans have made prisoners, particularly of wounded men. who in the withdrawal movement we were not able to take with us. On our side we have made a number of important prisoners, not wounded, belonging to seven different regiments. "To sum up, the success Is a partial one for our adversaries, which will have no influence on the operations as a whole. In fact, by reason of the ob stacles presented by the Aisne and the dispositions which we have taken, the enemy will be unable to utilize to the south of the river the success which Is of purely focal character. "On the rest of the front there Is nothing to report." ITURBIDE INL0NG FLIGHT (Pontlmifd From First Pag. ' bide came to the front at the urgent request of the diplomatic corps and ' took command ot the situation. He kept order in the city and turned It over to the Zapata commanders. He had. however. Incurred the enmity of the Zapata faction because he com manded a detachment f troops which fought them in the outskirts of Mexico City during; CarbaJaJ's brie! adminis tration. 50 Zapatistas having been killed in the battle. When General Palafox. the Zapata commander, arrived be ordered the ar rest of Iturbide, who, scenting trouble, had hidden in a private house in Mexico City. Silliman and Canova interceded and a fair trial was promised, but he doubted the wisdom of surrendering and remained in. hiding. Finally through the efforts of the American Government, General Gutierrea, as Fro visional President, signed an order giv ing Iturbide safe conduct to the United States. Villa Orders Arrest. Canova left Mexico City on the same train with Iturbide, but before they had proceeded far an order was issled by Villa for the arrest of Iturbide. At the same time a statement was given out by General Palafox, Minister of Agri culture In the uutierrex uaoinei, tur8 ing Silliman and Canova had accepted a bribe for their efforts in getting the fugitive out of Mexico City. This was viiroronsilv denied by them and the charges were ignored by the State De na rt mn t . at ( I rode on that train," said Iturbide tonight, "Just one day, for I realized that the secret service men were trail ing me and that an order for my arrest would come any minute. -T wrota mv will and gave It to Mr. Canova and slipped off the train Just nouth of Aguas Calientes. 1 waiKea oronnri nimlesslv for 60 miles and fin ally got a horse on a ranch.

His property has now Deen confiscated and his funds in Mexico banks similarly appropriated by the different chiefs. By selling some oi his nroDertv to foreigners he saved a small sum from the wreck. The episode has an Interesting se quel in the status of Leon canova, who. It was said, became persona non grata to General Palafox and General Villa, because of his part in the escape of Iturbide. Canova has been in Washington for several days. General Villa, it is said, issued the order for Iturbide's arrest without knowing that General Gutierrez had Issued a safe conduct. As soon as the situation Is explained to all the chiefs It is believed Canova will go back to Mexico to continue his work for the American Government. He acted constantly under instructions from Washington. Secretary Bryan took a personal Interest In the case. One of the numerous reports the State Department had of Iturbide told of how. soon after Vera Cruz was seized by American forces and antl American feeling was running high in Mexico City, he made a wild dash In a motor to a prison and saved two American newspapermen from execu tion as spies. The correspondents had been found with codes in their posses sion. Since his arrival in Washington Iturbide called at the British and Spanish embassies in an effort to ar ranse for the safe departure of his wife. When he learned today that she was Anally in the United States he was overcome with Joy.

AIRMEN OFTEN DECEIVED Previous Familiarity "With Country Essential to Scouting Duty and Photography Indispensable , Adjunct of Mission. PARIS, Dec. 2S. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) Etienne Foulet, describing his impressions as an air scout says, "Hiding and concealment has become such an art In modern war fare that it is more difficult to find the enemy than to kill him." He says: "Infantry assumes' the appearance of stacks of straw, cannon become to the Bharpest eye nothing but inoffensive piles of brushwood. "Observation ladders are 'made up' with such perfection that they are easily mistaken for poplars or cypress,, trees; false hedges and artificial thick ets, even, frequently conceal batteries of, artillery and detachments of in fantry from the eye of the air scout. Previous Acquaintance Required. "There is only one thing that will enable an aviator to detect these modi fications in the natural appearance of the ground he is flying over and that is a complete previous acquaintance with it. In certain regions that I ex plored frequently during the battle of the Marne there was a wood that we airmen called the 'U' wood; to us it was well known as a guiding point. One day this 'U wood presented an un usual aspect to my eyest the extrem ity of the left horn of the U seemed to have lengthened about 30 yards during the night. "I took the chance of flying low over the spot. There. Just inside of the mir aculous night's growth of woods I dis covered a German battery, skillfully hid from our artillery by a thicket of pine and cedars replanted during the night. Paotograpba Are Invaluable, "On another occasion It was a hedge that I had never seen before, though I had scrutinized every bit of the ground: on closer inspection I was able to discover the newly-thrown up ridge of a line of trenches and the emplace ment of two German Datteries ini -, i I . . .... a rrraa Heol ftf woum nave 5 " t -j . . trouble on the morrow If our three lnchers had not thus been put Into pos session of the secret.

Poulet explains, "are German trenches and not far from there three round objects, each one between gray lines, are simply three German batteries that worked havoc in tne aiues rinia un til, after three days' hunting, we. lo cated them. 1 Great Holes Leak Like Peaa. "Here," continues Poulet.

Wood Pipe Men Busy. OREGON CITY. Or.. Jan. 14. (Spe cial.) That certain Portland interests, principally, wood pip makers, con tractors and a group of bond buyers, would make a serious effort to defeat the proposal for a steel pipe line to the south fork of the Clackamas Kiver be came known here from an authoritative source last night. Since the South Fork water commit tee has not yet signed a contract with the Oregon Engineering & Construction Company for the building of a steel line, wood pipe makers still see a pos sibility that their product may be se lected. Attorneys representing Port land interests have made a number of trips to Oregon City during the last week an an effort has been made to bring pressure to bear on the. members of the committee. The amendment which will be sub mitted to the voters has been prepared and has been sent to Boston bond ex perts, who will examine it. The docu ment was prepared by Morris Bros., of Portland, and last week the committee checked it over with City Attorney Schuebel and L. Stipp. The proposed amendment will be sub mitted to the Council in the form of an ordinance. Twenty-one days are re quired to call a special city election. so that it is probable that te issue will be put before the voters about March 1. CARRiZA DECREE LEGALIZES DIVORCE Mexican Leader Says Purpose Is to Emancipate Women of Lower Classes. OTHER LEADERS AGREE TRICK KILLS BOX BILL SINNOTT CHARGES BAD FAITH BY DEMOCRATIC LEADERS. Apple Standard Measure, Losing . Its Place on Calendar, Now Must Go t Over to Next Session. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. Jan. 14. Representative Slnn oott, in the House today, severely criti cised the Democratic leaders for resort ing to legislative trickery yesterday to kill the Oregon apple box bill, which but for their activities probably would have been passed before adjournment. Representative Ashbrook, chairman of the committee on coinage, weights and measures, which reported the ap ple box bill, was expected to move con sideration of the box bill immediately after' the House passed the standard barrel bill, but instead, at the request of Representative Underwood, he moved adjournment of the House. Thus he surrendered the right of his committee to obtain consideration at this session for any more bills it has reported, whereas if Ashbrook had acted in good faith and had called up the Oregon box bill, it would have had the right of way each Wednesday, until voted on and its friends believe it would have been passed. Under Mr. Sinnott's lashing, Ash brook and Underwood tried to shift re sponsibility to others, but Mr. Sinnott left no doubt as to who was responsi ble for killing the bill by trickery. It will now be necessary to reintroduce the apple box bill at the next session. It cannot be passed this session. M KILLED IN WOODS CHARLES THOMASEN BUSTAKEN FOR DEER AND IS SHOT.

(Correspond' ence of the Associated Press.) Gen eral Carranza has added to his pro gramme of reforms the granting of ab solute divorce. Any Judge in Mexico if be cares to take the chahee of Carranza's reseat ing himself at Chapultepec may now annul a marriaee contract. ine law herame effective on New Year's day. Mexico has heretofore never granted more than a legal separation. The new law not only provides for divorce with the right to remarry, but makes the dissolution of the union so simple that the mere agreement of man and wife to break their marital contract is suf ficient. Other Leaders of Like Mind. If the factions headed by Villa and Zapata and Gutierrez should not agree tn dunlicate carranza s decree, or u Carranza should fail to retake the cap al and restore himself to power, 1 state of marital . relations not differ ino- a-reatlv from bigamy may be ex pected in the territory now controlled hv Carranza. It Is asserted, however. that Villa, Zapata and their followers are of like mind on the question and will not hesitate to follow Carranza s example. Should the law stand, Mexico will be perhaps the most liberal country in the world in specifications of the causes for divorce. In the case of mutual consent, it is merely necessary for the man and wife to sign an agree ment saying they are tired of living together, providing for proper dlvls sion of property and the disposition of the children, present this to a Judge after it has been attested by a no tary, and the Judge has no option but to render the judgment that enables them to search for new mates. Law Favora Huabanda. Unfaithfulness, cruelty and those of fenses usually listed in most divorce laws as reasons for separations are iriven. but there are a few unusual features as well. Abandonment on the part of the wife is defined as "aban donment without cause of the conjugal home, even though it be for a single night" Toward the nusbana tne law la more lenient. His absence from horns shall not be regarded as aban donment unless he has remained away "for 30 consecutive nights. The wife who refuses to support her husband when he is out of work and when she has money shall be adjudged as having given grounds for divorce. One restrctlon has been placed in that section relating to divorce by mu tual consent It is specified that in that case the parties must have lived together at least for three years. Many Unions Now Illegal. Carranza. commenting on his decree. said that marriage among the lower classes was exceptional; that "those unions which do exist rarely are legal ized, whether on account of poverty or the instinctive fear of entering into an irrevocable contract He explained that in his opinion divorce offered the CASTOR I A For Infants and Children.
