A BRITISH PORT, Oct. 7. (By the
Associated Press.) The 'Japanese
steamer Hirano Maru of 7935 tons
gross, has been torpedoed and sunk. It
is feared that 300 lives were lost.
The commander of the American de
stroyer Sterret heard the explosion and
steered his vessel for the point .whence
the sound came. He found the ship had
disappeared and he saw a mass f peo
ple struggling- in the water.
While the Sterrett was engaged pick
ing up the men and women, struggling
in (the water, the German submarine
fired two torpedoes at the warship.
Both missiles happily missed their
mark.
After making a thorough search for
survivors the Sterrett headed for the
submarine, firing several shots and
dropping depth charges.
200 Passengers on Board.
The Hirano Maru was outward bound
for Japan and carried about 200 pas
sengers. She was torpedoed and sunk
by a German submarine early on Fri
day morning when about 300 miles
south of Ireland.
The few survivors who were picked
up by the Sterret have been brought
here. They declare that the torpedo
truck the steamer Jn the forward
engine-room.
Nothing remained for those on board.
Including the women and children,
but to plunge into the ocean. A large
number, however, went down with the
ship.
The vessel dirappeared completely
within seven minutes after being
struck by the torpedo.

The weather was bad and rather
hazy. Kverybody had been supplied

WITH THE ANGLO AMERICAN
FORCES ON THE CAMBRAI-ST.
QUENTIN FRONT. Oct. 10, 4 F, M.
(By the Associated Press.) The British
armies continued their rapid movement
eastward today, despite desperate re
sistance which they encountered at
times from strong enemy rear guards
who were trying to protect the main
bodi.es of troops now in flight.
Infantry In Neavflly.
British cavalry, moving astride the
Cambrai-Le Cateau road, captured Le
Cateau and moved beyond it after over
coming enemy machine gun posts. Just
north of here the infantry many hours
ago reached Neuvilly.
The Germans were in some strength
on the east side of the Sella river at
this point, and used their guns vigor
ously, but the town was taken and
passed.
Caudry, Inchy and many other towns
are burning, as the Germans continue
their incendiarism and destruction.
Other important advances have been
made, and notwithstanding the enemy's
flight, more than 2000 additional prison
ers have been taken since yesterday.
One army of the three participating in
the operations took 58 cannon yester
day and many more today. The others
undoubtedly have done as well.
The Germans are still in full flight,
but resistance from the rearguards ap
pears to have slightly stiffened and it
is considered not unlikely that the
enemy may try to make a stand on tho
east bank of the Oise and the Sambre
Canal, running northeast of it. .
French Line Advances.
Already the French first army oper
ating south of the British has reached
the river at Mezieres. and as they are
drawing closer to it northward the
British and Americans are approaching
it still further north. The French line
at last reports from Mezieres ran west
of Regny, east of Marcy to the out
skirts of Fontaine Notre Dame and
north of Beautreux.
There has been hard fighting east of
Bohain, but apparently the opposition
there has been overcome, for continued
advances are reported.
An attack was launched this morn
ing east of the Scheldt Canal and the
British penetrated for a considerable
distance, leaving the enemy-occupied
ground to the north in a still deeper
and sharper salient. Incidentally- the
British here are only about five miles
from Douai, to the north of them.
They are also able to place an enfilad
ing fire upon the Germans holding the
salient, making it exceedingly uncom
fortable for them.
There continue to be indications
that the enemy realizes he must get
out of here and his plans for the
moment very probably hve to do with
straightening his line northward all the
way to the salient the Belgians and
British have made in his positions tt
Roulers. The Germans made one weak
effort to push back the Belgians in this
salient early this morning, but the at
tacks failed entirely, the Belgians pour
ing in a hot fire.
Cavalry Heavily Engaged.
The British captured Troncois with
out opposition and marched through the
town, but the Germans appeared to be
in considerable strength in Camnoles
and fought hard before the British
smothered most of them with the fire
from their own machine guns and ar
tillery.
It seems that the cavalry, which has
performed wonderful work in clearing
up the country and hastening the re
treat of the Germans, at several places
has been heavily engaged by small
groups of enemy machine gunners. In
some of these places opposition has
been overcome by maneuver and
charge, while at other points whippet
tanks and armored cars have cleared
the way for the horses and the men.
The cavalry forced its way eastward
along the road to L.e Cateau by fight
ing, in some localities the cavalrymen
appear to have dismounted and con
tinued the fight at points where it was
dangerous to risk themselves and their

Advance Is Rapid.
The British have advanced rapidly
along the whole battle front. They
now hold the line of the Selle River
from St. Souplet to Solesmes, which
represents an advance of about 10
r.iiles east of Cambrai.
, Many civilians have been found in
,' the captured towns and villages, 2500
being liberated in Caudry alone.
The text of the statement reads:
"At dawn this morning our advanca
was resumed along the whole battle
front. At all points rapid progress
was made in spite of the efforts of
the enemy's rear guards to hold tip
the advance.
"Our troops, approaching the large
woods east of Bohain, have entered
Vaux-Andigny. North of that place
we have reached the general line of
the Selle River from St. Souplet to
the neighborhood of the Solesmes and
have captured Le Cateau.

Fires are still burning everywhere.
They are accompanied by explosions as
ammunition dumps go up. Occasionally
shells from British gruns find their tar

material from falling into the hands of
