WITH THE AMERICAN ARMT IN
FRANCE, June 8. (By the Associated
Press.) American troops last night at
tacked the Germans -to the east of
Torcy in the district northwest of
Chateau Thierry. The French contin
ued their advance on the American left.
At last reports, the operation was pro
gressing: satisfactorily.
The American artillery was active all
night in the Belleau Wood sector. The
fire increased in intensity at 4 o'clock
this morning, when the Americans at
tacked in the southern part of the
wood, taking prisoners and a number
of machine guns. The battle was still
raging here this afternoon.
Boohe l.lnea Reinforced.
German prisoners report that new
German troops are moving up in the
rear of the American sector on this
front.
The enemy artillery fire is increas
ing, indicating that the Germans are
bringing up additional big guns.
American troops on the front norths
weot of Chateau Thierry mowed down
the enemy with machine gun and rifle
fire at midnight, when the Germans
made an attack on their position. They
fought like demons and at one point
killed 100 Germans.
Before they made their attack the
Germans sent over a smoke cloud, sup
posedly of black gas. During the fight
the American wore gas masks.
Hubs Stopped by Yankees.
-The Germans launched their thrust
against the Americans in the vicinity
of Bouresches. .They were completely
stopped, however, about 400 yards from
the American trenches.
.This result was achieved despite the
intense enemy bombardment, which in
cluded the use of gas in a new form.

HOOD RIVER, Or., June g. (Spe
cial.) Proportionate to his earnings,
it" is likely that no individual in the
trnited States has contributed more
heavily to the Red Cross than John
Oluck, aged 50, and one-time soldier of
the Austrian empire. Gluck, who earns
his living as a laborer on county roads,
today gave Secretary Ravlin, of the
local chapter, $33, bringing his total
donations since the war began to an
even $100.
,He says that a strong love remains
with him for the land of his birth,
whose people, he declares, will receive
the greatest blessing of their national
existence when America makes possible
the decisive defeat of the armies of the
central powers.
BRITISH TOO BUSY TO DRINK
Three-Quarters Reduction In In
- ebriety Officially Reported.
LONDON, June 8. "It will not be
difficult to maintain the present level
of sobriety," says the British liquor
control board, which has been wrestling
with what was considered a menacing
drir problem since early in the war,
in i fourth annual report.
"Police records show that drunken
ness has been reduced to one-fourth
of what It was at the beginning of the
war. The average number of arrests
weekly for drunkenness in the five
largest centers of population for 1913
and 1917 compare as follows:

'; Salmon Catches Are Large.
' ABERDEEN, "Wash., June 8. (Spe
cial.) Big catches of Quinault salmon
are being made at present, and, al
though the run has been late in start
ing a big catch Is expected for the year,
More than 20,000 fish have been caught
during the past few weeks and daily
catches now exceed 1000 salmon.

Europe with an electrical process for

line from Noyon to Montdidier was
almost equal in importance to that in
front of Amiens. The French forces
were rushed to this front and fought
savagely to stop the German advance
and retake ground which was 01 strat
egic and tactical Importance.
Troop Movement Heavy.
At the same time the Woevre sector.
lust to the southeast of veraun. is
claiming attention. Large movements
of enemy troops in the direction 01 01.
Mihiel have been reported by aerial
observers, and there are indications
that the positions of the Americans
along this part of the front may be in
the storm center oi a terrific attack
soon.
The advantages to be gained by the
Germans, if they succeed In breaking
this line, are manifold. JElgnteen miles
west of St. Mihiel is the town of Bar
Le Due, and still further westward is
Vitry, which would be but a stepping
stone to a dash lor cnaions Bur niarne.
If the line at St. Mihiel could be broken
or driven back very far, tne whole
Verdun sector would be in peril and
might have to be abandoned.
Allied Line Restored.
In the Flanders sector, which has
been quiet since the beginning of the
attack along the Alsne, the Germans
on Wednesday sought to improve their
positions by capturing the hospital at
Locre. This point would give them a
starting point fo." an attack on the
village of Locre, which is considered
one of the keys to the allied positions
along the hills behind the line south
west of Tpres. The French forces I
nthi ssector on Friday, however, at
tacked the enemy and drove him back
to his former positions and the ajield
line has been restored. '
There have been no engagements of
a notable character on the Italian front,
but In Macedonia the allies, particu
larly the Greeks, have been continuing
their aggressive operations.
WITH THE BRITISH ARMT IN
FRANCE, June 8. (By the Associated
Press.) Locre Hospice, which the Ger
mans captured on Wednesday night,
was retaken by the French yesterday.
They battled their way to this much
contested position and completely re
established their original line.
Threat Is Removed.
The French have thus removed a
more or less serious threat to the vil
lage of Locre, which Itself is an im
portant defense lor Montrouge and
other hills lying immediately to the
west.
The enemy has long coveted Locre
and retention of the hospice would
give him a good jumping off place for
another assault against the village.
WITH THE FRENCH ARMT IN
FRANCE, June 8. (By the Associated
Press.) Americans, with the French,
have made trench raids along the left
bank of the Avre River in the Mont
didier sector. These raids have been
carried out with good effect and enemy
works have been destroyed as well as
several prisoners captured.
Americans Learn Qulckl x.
Everywhere the American troops are
rapidly becoming accustomed to every
phase of the war. They are showing
Initiative and dash which has been
repeatedly commented upon by veteran
French and British soldiers, who wel
come their appearance.
The revival of artillery activity In
the sector between Noyon and Mont
didier is claiming attention today.
Whether the Germans intend to deliver
another blow here with their still
powerful reserves cannot be foreseen,
but the indications ponit to such an
event.
The German 'gunners in this region
are active in securing ranges on allied
positions. This work, however, Is car
ried out with difficulty as the allied
cannon Incessantly harry the enemy's
battery emplacements and bombard the
rear of his lines.
Ban Shock Troops Removed.
Most of the German shock divisions
used in the Marne battlefield have been
withdrawn from that area.
The second Franco-American attack
in the neighborhood of Venllly-la-Poterie
and Bouresches was a brilliant
success to the allied arms. It was con
tinued yesterday with an advance in
the Chezy sector, farther northwest on
the line.
The enemy seemed somewhat dis
heartened, replying only feebly to the
allied fire. Prisoners arriving at the
rear in small batches appear to be
thoroughly exhausted and depressed
by the turn affairs are taking.
All Wireless May Be Seized.
WASHINGTON,' June 8. Authority

OLTMPIA. Wash,, June 8. (Special.)
L. H. Darwin. State Fish Commis
sioner personally applied today to the
Supreme Court for rehearing of the
ter case brought by Nick Constants
of Tacoma. The court has affirmed In
this case the legal right of Austrians to
fish in Puget Sound or other state
waters when they had filed declara
tions of Intention to become citizens,
notwithstanding the fact that this
country is now at war with Austria.
In his petition for reconsideration
Darwin attacks Constanti's contention
that refusal to grant him a fishing li
cense deprived him of his usual occu
pation by a showing that Constant!
never engaged in fishing and the only
license be ever held was a liquor li
cense in Tacoma and that the only
business be ever followed in this state
was the saloon business .
Darwin alleges also that Constantl
lived in the United States 10 years be
fore he filed even a. declaration of in
tention to become a citizen .
By the Supreme Court decision, of
which th ceommsllsoner asks a modi
ficatlon, it is urged that 3000 subjects
of Austria Hungary, a large per cent
age of whom are naval reservists of the
nations with which America is at war
are allowed, the same free rights on
Puget Sound waters as loyal American
citizens.

PARIS, June 8. In an arUcle in the
Matin dealing with the recent appoint'
ment of the Paris committee of de.
tense. Frederic Brunet, a Socialist dep
uty, says:
"By another drive made without re
gard to sacrifices, the Germans, if they
did not enter Paris, perhaps could ap
proach near enough to hold the capital
under the fire of long-range guns, not
as now, for an Intermittent bombard
ment, but for methodic, permanent fire.
Such conditions would render In
dustrial life Impossible, and the gov
rnment's will to resist must not be
influenced by the fear of sacrificing
the lives of non-combatants or by fear
of the consequences which a cessation
of the output of the munition factories
surrounding the capital would entail.
M. Brunet highly approves the for
mation of the committee.
"Even the most unlikely, the most
extreme possibilities ought to be con
sldered," he says, "until American con
tingents can turn the scale of effec
tives In our favor. Although I am
convinced that our armies will keep
the enemy far enougb from the capital
to prevent the horrors of aa Intensive
bombardment, all measures should be
taken to fortify the defense and Insure
the safety of the aged and the children

country might be decided, and evry-
thing ought to be subordinated to Its
preservation. So long as Germany
seeks to Impose domination by force
no peace is possible and but one duty
Is Imposed upon us to fight and conquer."
The committee in question, wnose
duty It is to defend the Paris area,
will not only study plans to meet the
threat of Invasion, which Is regarded
as Improbable, but will deal with the
problems caused by night air raid
and the long-range bombardment, says
a Havas Agency review of the com
mittee's work which summarizes the
newspaper comment. The committee
also will take into consideration the
question of th emorale of the popula
tion with the confident assumption thai
while the enemy can strike at. he can
not break down the resolution or
courage of the people.
