CANADIANS PRAISE
BRITISH 'LAND SHIP'
"Creme de Menthe" Leads
Way, While Germans Pour
Bullets in Vain.
TWO WHOLE LINES TAKEN
Advance Made in Face of Deter
mined Resistance, In Which Ger
mans Fought With Desper
ate Courage of Despair.
OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. 22. Tribute to
the fighting abilities of His Majesty's
land ship Creme de Menthe Is given by
the press representative at Canadian
corps headquarters in France, In an
account received here today of the part
played by the Dominion's troops In the
offensive of September 15. The as
sertion is made in the report that
German machine gunner's were found
chained and padlocked to their guns.
"The morning of September 16,
dawned bright and clear," said the
message from the front. "There was
& frosty nip in the air. Suddenly
our massed artillery burst Into a
frenzy of activity. Shells of every
caliber were hurled over the heads of
the infantry. Shortly after ' 6 o'clock
our battalions began their attack. In
successive waves our infantrymen
, moved forward, climbing over the
shell-torn ground and leaping the bat
tered trenches. Among them burst the
nemy shells. The noise was terrific.
Machine gun and rifle fire poured into
them. - .
Create de Menthe Leads Way.
"Steadily they mounted the last ridge,
saw Martinpulch on their right and
looked over to the Breck ruins and
white chalk mounds of the sugar re
finery and the trenches to the right
and left, which were to be their ob
jective. "No sooner were the first lines of
German trenches secured than the as
saulting waves pressed onward.
"In their midst, moving ponderous
ly but steadily, came several of the
new armored cars. His Majesty's land
ship 'Creme.de Menthe' led the way
and the effect was electrical. In vain
the Germans rained a stream of bullets
against the Invulnerable cars. . They
Were powerless to stop the advance.
"Although our Infantry were the first
to reach the sugar refinery, the cars
assisted materially in silencing the
German machine-guns. Ten officers,
including a battalion commander, were
prisoners. At the same time the
trenches oh either flank, known to
us as the 'candy' trench and the 'e.ugar
trench were stormed and captured.
Second Illow Delivered at Once.
"So successful was the attack that
the troops, commanded by Sir Byng,
decided to strike another immediate
blow. He ordered that the village of
Courcelette, together with a line of
German trenches between Moquet farm
and the northwestern edge of the vil
lage, be attacked. By 6 o'clock in the
evening all : preparations " were com
pleted, but no attack was launched.
The objective was a different one. In
cluding a large and strongly fortified
village on the right.
"A famous French-Canadian bat
talion, having as its objective the
larger part of Courcelette, behaved
with the greatest skill and gallantry.
On their left a Halifax battalion co
operated brilliantly in the capture, of
the rest of the village. A Canadian
light infantry battalion, together with
the Montreal battalion, at the same
time captured the line of trenches to
the west and established a strong posi
tion. Two 'Whole Lines Captured.
"Thus, within little more than 12
hours, the Canadians captured two
whole lines of the German defensive
positions on a wide front and to a depth
of from 1000 to 2000 yards. This was
accomplished in the face of a desper
ate and determined resistance and
which the Germans fought with the
courage of despair.
"It is an authentic fact that the Ger
man machine gunners 'were found
chained and padlocked to their guns."
FRENCH HARVEST. IS GOOD
Wheat Yield, However, Is Reported
Below Normal.
PARIS, Sept. 22. The agricultural
situation In France on the completion
of the harvest was summed up authori
tatively today as follows:
"The wheat yield is somewhat be
low that of the average year, but in the
west, central and southeastern sections
the harvest-is satisfactory as a whole.
The situation as to oats is quite favor
able. Potatoes suffered from dryness,
but good crops were raised-in nany
sections. The beet yield was satisfac
tory. '
"Vineyards, suffered from the beat,
but on the whole the yield is consid
ered a satisfactory one."
DANES DISCUSSING SALE
Issue of Islands Not to Be Voted On
Before November.
COPENHAGEN. Sept. 22. via London.
ept. a. une i.andst.hing-, or upper
nouse or the Danish Parliament, will
finish on Monday the readings on the
government's bill to sell the Danish
West Indies to the United States. The
bill then will be submitted to the
Folkethlng, or lower house, and if the
two houses disagree. It is virtually cer
tain that a committee of members of
both houses will be appointed to dis
cuss the measure.
It is expected that the question
whether general elections stall take
place wili be settled next week, but
since the matter of the sale now has
been delayed two months by the
Rigsdag, the election probably will not
be held before November.
SENATORS COMING HOME
Mr. Chamberlain En Route and Mr.
Lane Is Expected.
Senator George E. Chamberlain left
Washington yesterday, and will prob
ably arrive in Portland Tuesday or
Wednesday. He telegraphed word of
his departure to Mrs. Chamberlain in
this city. He said that he expected to
stop off for a day or two In Chicago,
which would make the date of his ar
rival here uncertain.
Nobody seems to know just what has
become of Senator Lane. His friends
expect him here In a day or two,
though none of them seems to have
heard from the Senator in regard to

of the French part of the entente line
which almost encircles the town, the
French undertook local operations on
the outskirts of Combles Itself. An or
ganized and defended house was cap
tured and several trench elements were
occupied. In these entrprises 140 prison,
era were taken.
General Halg's troops straightened
out their line between Martinpulch and
Flers, a distance of about one mile, by
taking two lines of German trenches.
The British front there now runs on a
direct line north of the two villages.
London also records improvements of
other positions, on the British front.
German and Roumania reports as to
the progress or result of the battle on

C a ait tit In Rear, Compelled to Pall
Back In Disorder.
LONDON. Sept. 22. Checking the
swift retreat of his forces In the Do
brudja, General von Mackensen turned
about and struck back at the Rou
manians today. King Ferdinand's
troops had pursued . the apparently
broken Bulgar forces for nearly a day
This morning they attempted a rush
attack "on the enemy near Toprai Sari,
14 miles southwest of Constanza.
Apparently they were out-generaled
by the German commander. Directing
an encircling counter-drive against the
flank of the Roumanian army, taking
them completely by surprise, Macken
sen succeeded In folding back the
wing and dashing in on the rear. The
Roumanians fell back in disorder, ac
cording to the German official report.
From the allied war offices there Is
no statement tonight regarding the
Dobrudja operations after the stand
made by the Russian and the Rouma
nian forces and their clean-cut victory
over the invaders yesterday.
In Western Macedonia there is no
pause In the fighting. With the perfect
co-operation of the French troops and
artillery, the berbs are smashing ahead
at nearly every point. Using Fiorina as
a base they are steadily pushing a deep
wedge Into the Bulgar lines along the
Southern Serbian frontier.
Here the attacking forces have al
ready seized the trenches constructed
by the Bulgars before they started
their disastrous drive into Macedonia.
A desperate battle for the heights
dominating the road from Fiorina to
Popoli is proceeding.
To the east along the Broda River
and the Nidje Ridge, where the Serbs
are Intrenched in strong positions
commanding the plains of their own
soil, the Bulgars are massing to pre
vent a sudden march on Monastir.
Menaced from two directions, however.
they will have no alternative but to
retreat once the allied forces break
through north of Fiorina. Here the
Franco-Serbian army is favored by a
railroad running due north through the
middle of a level plain at the end of
which lies Monastir.

thought the attack was over. They did
not expect the second cnarge. which
came just before dark.
Quick Action NeeeHsary.
Turning corners and dodg'ng in and
out, the Canadians cleared the streets
of Germans and saw the dugouts were
guarded. Given another half hour and
the Germans would have organized
their defense. As It was they were
helplessly confined In their cellars.
One boy of 19 delivered a dugout of
40 Germans and marched them away
as prisoners, according to the accounts
of his comrades. One of the two bat
talion commanders captured was i
baron.
"Being of the aristocracy, he put on
a good deal of airs, said a Canadian
Colonel. "I took him aside and told
him it was out of place and that I was
too busy to be ceremonious Then he
became amiable.
Two German doctors worked like
Trojans looking after their own and
helping to look after the British
wounded. They objected to being kept
under guard, saying that they were
medical officers and not combatants.
"Sorry but there are too many of
your friends still armed In the dug
onts to let you circulate about this
village freely," was the answer to their
protests.
Prisoners Under Red Cross Flag.
The Baron was sent across the open
with the other prisoners under a Red

so I drove him on ahead of me. making
him keep his hands up. The thing was
ludicrous in the midst of bursting shells
and houses burning, and no moving
picture operator in sight. There were
lots of funny things, now I remember
them.
"After we had established ourselves
beyond the village I saw a Canadian
and a German prisoner who had been
fighting fiercely minutes before, good
naturedly discussing the old theme:
When the war would be over. It ended
by the German's declaring It would be
over when the allies admitted that they
were licked. The German Insisted that
his friends would come back and take

LONDON. Sept. 22. The eontinned

will be met by an increase in stringent
measures by which the entente allies
design to control shipping, so as to in

to ths Associated Press today by Lord
Robert Cecil, minister of war trade.
Lord Robert declared it could not be
expected that British facilities should
be expended on ships carrying goods
to blacklisted firms, and that the en
tente allies will increase thefr ship
ping measures In making the best use
of available tonnage in proportion as
the Germans succeed In destroying
merchant ships.
The minister said that as a matter
of course the entente allies would be
favored as regards the use of tonnage
and that neutrals engaged in entente
allied trade or in unsuspected neutral
trade would receive the next consid
eration. Lord Robert said that the answer of
Great Britain to the American Gov

almost Immediately and that the re

gard to the blacklist imposed by the
entente allies would follow shortly.
