THE ' MORXIXO OREGONIA3T. TUTJRSDAV, 'AUGUST 17, 1916. mm FRONT ON S01IE UNBROKEN Correspondent Finds Germans in Good Spirits, Determined to Stand Ground. MANY FACE SURE DEATH Trenches Become Virtually Useless in Most Murderous Iialtle of .' All Time Civilians Surfer ' Heavily TTnder Fire." OFFICIAL WAR REPORTS GERMAM TRENCHES OPPOSITE THE BRITISH POSITION AT GOMMECOURT ON THE SOMMB FRONT, Aug. 14, via Berlin to Sayville, N. Y.. by wireless, Aug 16. (From a Staff Correspondent of The Associated Press.) Half a mil lion British have been engaged in an effort to break the German . lines on the Somme front. Often. .as in the fighting on the Gommecourt and Hebu torne, the British outnumbered the Germans six to one. They have gained ground to a depth of from three to five miles over a front of about 18 miles, but nowhere have -been able'to break through. More than ever death has become commonplace in this most murderous battle of all times. The Germans in the first line know that they probably will be killed if their positions are attacked. Trenches are virtually use less, for the heavy British shells widen them into broad channels, affording no cover of any sort. The first . line usually perishes. Trenches Leveled by Artillery. The advancing British foot troops are o better off, because the Germans re verse the process when' part of their positions have been captured. After the British artillery has leveled th'e German trenches, the infantry rushes in. often to be thrown out again as soon as the British artillery ceases fire, which it has to do owing to the proximity of the opposing lines. Thus the battle has been going on for weeks, the opposing forces now gaining, at ter. rif ic cost, and then losing at even greater cost, a few yards of trenches. At, present practically all. the fight ing by the British is carried on from their Pozieres salient, where their drum fire as unceasing, day or night. Ger man officers who were in the Cham pagne offensive said no such artillery fire ever had been developed pre viously. German Fire Also Tremendous. The German fire, too, is terrific. An Idea of its intensity may be gained from the fact that on certain British troops German guns threw 1600 shells in one minute and ia seconds, result' ing in great slaughter. Often the British assault dies be fore the German second line, from which machine guns pour out streams of bullets which literally cut the men into fragments. At one time the As sociated Press correspondent . stood within 800 yards of the British trenches near Delvllle wood. Nearby the- Ger mans had just buried 1296 British,- as lulles in the firing permitted. Some 600 British prisoners whom the correspondent saw behind the firing line plainly were still dazed from the shock. They were a sorry spectacle. glad they had escaped from "hell," they termed it. The correspondent visited the entire front of the present offensive and everywhere found, from talks with Germans, that they were more de termined than ever to stand their ground. Each Man His Ovrn Leader. The men are- in capital shape phys ically and of easy mind, although they are looking on death each time. An officer pointed out that nowadays each man is his own leader, as it is often impossible under present battle con ditions to transmit commands. While the generals might still plan the ac tions, the officers said, it was plain that the infantryman, acting on his own initiative in the presence of death, must save the day. Back of the German lines within ar tillery range hardly a single house was standing. Embers were still burn ing in the ruins of two villages as the correspondent passed through. Officers said there were no German troops in such places and that the victims were mostly French civilians. Of these, the correspondent saw scores of wounded. Whenever possible, the Ger mans removed these civilians, as at Buoquoy. The population of this town was sent out at 2 o'clock In the morn ing and the bombardment began at 6 o'clock. By noon the entire village was rased. The village of Rancourt met with a similar fate. The corre spondent saw part of the population rushing for safety and. a few hours later looked on the burning debris of the town. British Try to Burn Grain Crop. British aviators have made several attempts to burn the grain crop, ap parently unmindful of the fact that it belongs to French peasants. One aviator, descending to 800 yards from the ground, threw bombs among a harvesting party, killing two French girls and wounding others. There is no safety anywhere in the zone behind the front. What the ar tillery does not reach is exposed con stantly to the bombs of aviators. While the correspondent was at Bugny eight civilians were killed. Eighteen others were wounded, of whom .four died in the German hospital the same day. At Cambrai four persons were killed and two wounded on the same night. A French civilian pointed out that while the Germans soldiers have built bomb proofs in which to seek safety, the civilians have only cellars. He begged that this be brought to the. attention of the British military authorities. Germans on Western Front.-' - BERLIN, via London, Aug. 16." The battle of Pozieres has died down after a long series of British at tacks which the Wax Office says gained them nothing. Th'e British infantry men remained in their trenches air day yesterday. A night attack near Ovil lers failed.. . - "There was lively fighting again yes terday southeast of Armentieres and in the Artois," says the official statement today. "In the region of Pozieres, the British continued their fruitless at tacks until .yesterday morning. Throughout the day their infantry did nothing. A nocturnal attack north of Oviilers failed. "At Moulin-sous-Toutvent, in the Aisne district, artillery fighting was again revived temporarily on both sides, in conjunction with a fruitless French gas attack. East of Rheims strong re connoiterlhg detachments of the enemy were repulsed." . Germans on Eastern Front. BERLIN, via London. Aug. 16. To day's official announcement concern ing the fighting in the east is: the eastern front from the sea to the region north of the Dniester, there were no incidents of importance. Detachments of the Polish legion made short and successful advance in the region of .Huleviche. German detach ments broke up Russian advanced posts east, ot Kiselin and brought back as prisoners, one officer and 63 men. North of the Dniester the Russians, af tttr their sanguinary defeat on Aug.- ust 14, merely delivered local attacks with weak forces without result. "In the Carpathians our troops took possession of Starawipozyna height to the north of Capul." kilometers and to a. depth of 300 to 600 meters our infantry occupied all enemy positions east of the Maurepas-Clery road after a sharp attack, which cost the enemy heavily. These two opera tions, brilliantly and rapidly conducted, resulted in the capture, of a considera ble number of prisoners. "At - the same time, south of the Somme our troops, attacking with a rusft, captured a powerfully organized system of German trenches on a length of 1200 meters south of Belloy-en-San-terre, capturing 60 prisoners. There was an intermittent cannonade on the remainder of the front." ALLIES STRIKE OUT 3 DIRECTIONS Three Miles of Trenches Ta ken in Drive That Puts Two Towns in Jeopardy. Frencii. PARIS. Aug. IS.

Concessions to Be Looked Into. The committee will question Mr. Lan sing particularly, however, about con cessions which the United States, by the terms of the convention, proposed to maintain. Among these are a li cense to a company called "Del Ves-, tindlske Kompagni," giving ft rights to" drain, deepen and utilize certain areas in St. Thomas harbor, and preferential rights as to commercial, industrial or shipping establishments in the harbor. Another concession gives the tame com pany the right to supply electric light for the city of Charlotte Amalie. In cluded also are references to a conces sion to the Floating Drydock Company, of St. Thomas, relating to the floating dock in the harbor there; subsidies to the West India & Panama Telegraph Company; cessions for establishment and operation of a telephone system in St- Thomas and St. Croix, and various other business concessions. Senator Stone, chairman of the com mittee, said tonight the treaty proba bly would not be reported to the Sen ate for ratification until next week.

BERLIN, Aug. 16. In view of re ports that Germany was apprehensive over the proposed sale of the Danish West Indies to the United States, the Foreign Minister, Gottlieb von Jagow, made the statement today that th German government was" not opposed to such a transfer. Dr. von Jagow's statement was made in response to an inquiry by a repre sentative of the Overseas News Agency regarding reports emanating from a British source that, in connection with the proposed transfer, apprehension was felt in the United States "because a certain foreign power had adopted an underhanded antagonistic attitude toward the change in ownership of these islands." Dr. von Jagow stated, sasa the news agency announcement, that he only knew of the matter from what he read in the newspapers, but that one thing was absolutely certain. "Germany Is antagonistic, said the Foreign Minister, "to nobody's inten tion as to the distribution or sover eign rights in these parts of the world, The German policy was plainly stated by the Imperial Chancellor In bis speech In the Reichstag on April 4 when he made known to ever"""" that Germany harbors no plans of aggres sion or annexation toward Canada, Brazil or any portions of America whatever." a SWORD RULES IN TURKEY REGIME: PERPETUATED BY EXTER MINATION OF RIVALS. 21,000 SENT AWAY Status of Deported French Civilians Investigated.

Aug 16 The French and British, striking with terrific force in three directions on the Somme front, stormed nearly three miles of German trenches today, driving forward at points to a depth of 300 to 600 yards. The most important gains were made by the British and French troops, strik ing north from the point where the allied lines meet. Maurepas and Clery, two of the most important points held by the Germans in this sector, have been flanked on both sides, according to the official statement Issued by Paris. Allies Approach Railroad Town. The road has been reacned between Maurepas and Guillemont, the latter town being the immediate objective Of the British. This advance, if main tained, brings the allies directly in front of the large railroad town of Combles. South. of the Somme the French stormed German trenches over a length of about three-quarters ot a mile. driving forward in a southerly direc tion from Belloy-en-Santerre. Paris reports that a considerable number of prisoners were taken in these op erations. For the first time in many days no important action Is reported from the Russian front and the samp dearth of news prevails in regard to the Italian operations. Germans Mar Defend Trieste. The most interesting item of news regarding the Italian advance against Trieste is contained in a news dispatch from Milan, which says that German troops are to be employed in the defense of the big Austrian port. If corrob orated, this means that Italy and Ger many at last will enter an active state of war. The allied forces on the Salonikl front have ceptured the railroad sta tion at Doiran and four villages at other points on the front, according to an official statement Issued by the French War Office tonight. The state ment covers continuous fighting ex tending from August 1 to the present time. mm. 5i lilt ni I .. 1 4 "Vt ' 4 K f -. i the previous day.

A reiter ated refusal of the Turkish govern ment to .permit American relief sup plies to enter Syria, cabled today to the State Department,' coupled "with yes terday's dispatch announcing abolition of the Armenian patriarchate in Tur key and the recent execution of many leading Arabs in connection with the Mecca revolt, is Interpreted in official circles here as indicating that vigor ous steps are being taken In the at tempt to consolidate the Turkish re gime through .the weakening of the several other racial' elements of the country." , " Abolition of the patriarchate, which had both religious and administrative powers over the Armenians, is regarded as designed to break down Armenian power and place all positions in the hands of the Turks. Before the war there were 1,175,000 Armenians in Turkey, but 750.000 are reported since to have been killed and 250.000 to have fled. As a result Ar mentan power in Turkey is thought to have been entirely dissipated.- A TOWN IN EASTERN FRANCE, Tuesday, Aug. 15., via Berlin and Lon don, Aug. 16. On account of the pro- testa of France against forcible re moval by German authorities of inhab itants of French cities in the occupied area and representations that hard ships have resulted, a correspondent of the Associated Pres3 Investigated con ditions under which civilians from Lille, Turcolng and Roubaix. quartered at various points in Eastern France, are living. The German authorities afforded every facility for the inquiry and permitted examination of official documents. The proclamation posted by the Germans in Lille, Roubaix and Turco lng said that-since the English block ade made the problem of feeding the population of Belgium, and the occu pied part of France daily more dif ficult and since a. call to agricultural workers by the German authorities had not been answered, the Germans were obliged to move to the country certain parts of the population. The proclamation was posted on April 10 and at midnight of April 24 the Ger man troops aroused the Inhabitants in certain quarters of the three towns, telling them to assemble in front of their houses. People Picked for Deportation. Officials then picked the following persons for transportation: Males of military age or able-bodied males who were not engaged in fixed trades or other occupation; whole families unemployed and without financial sup port, and unemployed females. In all cases the instructions were to select persons familiar with agriculture or suited for it. The women were to do the cooking for men or to work for French country families, who needed assistance around the house, in mind ing babies or 'doing other tasks. German officers in charge of trans portation admit that mistakes were made in a good many Instances, but say these have since been rectified. Nearly 21,000 persons were removed from their homes. Those taken were told they would have 90 minutes in which to pack 65 pounds of household utensils and clothing. At the expira tion of that time they were taken to the railroad station at about 2 o'clock in the morning and were examined as to their fitness for farm work. They were then permitted to return to their homes with orders to return to the station at 3 o'clock in the afternoon to take trains for their destinations. People Visited In Villages. The corespondent of the Associated Press visited four places from which parts of the population had been taken. In one village the leader asserted that the food was Insufficient and the fare monotonous. In one house the correspondent talked with one of three girls. She said their treatment had been good but the vil lagers had not employed them. In the next village the correspondent talked with five young men. They said they were earning their full keep in addition to one to three francs daily by doing piece work on the farms. The president of the village told the correspondent that it was his opinion that the move was good, so far as the men were concerned. An internment camp for males of military age was next visited. The men were employed at a sawmill and in cutting wood in a nearby forest, earn ing on an average of one mark, sixty pfennings a day and their board. In most of the places visited the chief complaint of those removed was of the hardship due to separation from the families and their inability to reach relatives by mail. Germans per mit letters to be sent forth only through the German Red Cross at p ranKiort-on-Aiain, whlcn. results in many, delays. MILLION' SHELLS FIRED IX DAY K - Allies Making Prodigious Use or A tillcry Ammunition. HEADQUARTERS OF GERMAN ARMY GROUP ON THE SOMME FRONT.-Saturday, Aug. 12, 'via Berlin to London. Aug.. 16. The expenditure of -artillery ammunition by the entente allies on this front has reached prodigious volume, often striking the rate of 32 shells a second during drum fire. Not infrequently along the en tire Somme front nearly 90.000 shells have been dropped In an hour, while conservative estimate puts the aver age for the 24 hours' period at more than 1,000,000 shells. With this rate of fire, the financial cost of the offensive is naturally high, What the approximate losses in human material amount to it Is difficult to estimate. That the losses of the Brit lsh in certain actions have been fright ful Is affirmed by German, officers, who, on the other hand, frankly admit that their own losses have been far fr,om light, though all Insist that Jthey were not nearly so heavy as those of the British. The German expenditure In ammu nltion has been much lighter than that of the British, for the reason that the German artillery concentrates its er forts on special objects, such as trenches, transports and reserve bases, while the British often screen off whole sectors, taking nightly under their fire all the villages and roads behind the German lines within the range of their guns. 74 Allies' Vessels Sunk in July. BERLIN, via London, Aug. 16. An official statement Issued here today says that during July 74 merchantmen belonging to the entente allies were sunk by German and Austrian subma rines and mines.
