That the allien would quickly wipe out Ger many's navy wjis predicted early in the war, it was recalled. Yet, it was pointed out, not a single Teutonic f:p,hlii:g vessel of importance had been lost. On the contrary, the world was re minded, the cruisers Ctoeben, Breslau, Kmden, Karlsruhe, Leipslc, Scharn horst and Gneisvnau have not only es caped, but have wrought immense plumage to the allies' shipping. Attrition wag also' called to the fact that the allies' attempts to force the sultan to- reopen the Dardanelles had all failed, despite the fact that the1 Hussian ambassador at Constanti nople, in particular, was furious at the ernbarBO placed on the exportation of ills country's grain crop and the . importation, of arma by the southern 1 route Jf -Vaclts to A ttacx Russia,- , - I The Turkish navy, recently increased,' II was stated, was expected shortly to attack HusHla by way of the Black eea.

In the western field of war, it was announced that Camp Des liomalns, near Saint Mihiel, had been wrested by the Germans from the French after a 'hard Tight, five French officers and more than 500 men being captured and the rest of the garrison perishing in the ruins of their defenses.

Paris, October 6. "No troops ever fought so wildly as the Germans are fighting In this war," declared a wounded French colonel, who arrived here from the front today. "Also," he continued, "they have in vented a new trick of warfare. They are combining cavalry and artillery for the first time. "They have big, high power armored automobiles) on .which are mounted huge guns. One of them accompanies each cavalry detachment. Whoever heard of cavalry and artillery operat ing together before! - "When the cavalry encounters a barbed wire fence it retires, revealing the big gun. The gun throws enor mous shells until the path is clear. Then the cavalry charges, with infan try supporting it, '.. "That's a trick that has made the French fall back. v " But we played a good joke on the Germans at Verdun. "Their aviators had been trying to set fire to our hospitals. They dropped bombs on one of them until it was burning from end to end. ' "They thought they had burned our wounded. But they hadn't. When they began we took our own wounded from the regular field hospitals and filled them with Germans. "And they burned 60 of their own men to death."

GERMANS REPULSED AT LASSIGNY, IT IS CLAIMED French Official Report Con . tinues Encouraging, De spite .Change. gy William Philip Sims. Paris, Oct. 6. An attempt by the German right wing at an encircling movement of its own was suspected here today from reports of the pres ence of Uhlans near Lille. Experts inclined to think this was merely a reconnoitering force but in view of the fact that Lille is on the main railway the allies would have to use to relieve . Brussels and Antwerp, it was also thought possible the Ger mans planned to destroy the line. Today's official statement was gen erally encouraging. Fierce fighting was still in prog ress about Arras but the'Germans had made no substantial gains. Between the Somme and the OIe the conflict continued with alternate advances and retirements but thus far without any decisive advantage ; to either side. Germans Bepulsed at Lassigny. The Germans had been repulsed In an attempt to break the French line at Lassigny. This attempt, had it succeeded, would have endangered the Gallic left. At headquarters it was said the re newal of the German offensive need cause no alarm, though it was ex pectea tne Kaisers troops would en deavor to continue aggressive tactics as long as possible.

CRUISERS OF ALLIES TO FIGHT THE GERMANS Three War Vessels Sighted by Masters of Coastwise . Vessels, Steaming south under full headway three of ,the members of the allies' North Pacific fleet, the British cruiser Newcastle, the Japanese cruiser Id zuma and the French cruiser Mont calm, were seen early Sunday morn ing by masters-of coastwise vessels which reached Portland yesterday. The Newcastle was first .'sighted by Captain Lilliland of the Arrow line steamer Navajo at 8:30 Sunday morn ing- 30 miles to the southward of Cape Blanco. Two hours later the master of an other steamer sighted - two warships, ohe carrying the Japanese ana the other the French flag, five miies far ther to sea and 20 miles farther south than was the Newcastle. Owing to the owner's orders of silence imposed on this master when the, war broke out his name Is withheld. No doubt or tne identity or tne ves sels exists in the mind of either master however. Captain LillllanJ had good look at the Newcastle while the other master has seen both the idzuma and the Montcalm near Vancouver island within the last two months and recognized them at once. That the allies fleet is bound for South Pacific waters to remove the German cruisers which have been de moralizing trade- in that section is the belief of Captain Lilliland. No atten tion was paid to the American steamer and from the speed of the cruiser it was evident that her mission demanded her presence in the south at earliest opportunity. IT, S.

Secretary of the Navy Josophus Dan iels has- assigned a battleship, to carry the cargo of Christmas gifts to boys and girls in European countries whose fathers have been killed in war. This is the finest possible aid to the Christmas ship plan of The Journal, the Chicago Herald and other national newspapers. It is the best use ever proposed for war vessel carrying a substantial message of cheer and sympathy peace fully to countries where other battle ships and engines of war destroy lift and kill hope. Now the boys and girls of Portland are urged to get busy. A great battle ship can carry aij immense cargo of toys And comforts and no matter how many gifts there are each will brighten and gladden some boy or girl whom war has robbed of a father. Secretary Daniels' promise was tele graphed to Kditor J. Keeley of the Chi cago Herald and by him- flashed across the continent to The Journal. It reads: Secretary Daniels Will Aid. Washington.

I take creat nlea.su re in informing: you that I have arranged to send an American warship, the vessel to De eeiectea later, to European waters during the latter part of November for the purpose of re- ieving the North Carolina. And I have further arranged for this ship to carrv the Christmas cargo of useful presents which the 90 odd newspapers of this country represented by you have so thoughtfully collected from the gen erous people of our own country.- It is a beautiful spirit which has prompted this portion of the press of the United States and the people who have responded to their appeal to lav ish upon the distressed little ones of Kuropean countries these token of lib erality. This unsemsn enterprise, l feel con fident, bespeaks our own gratitude to dod for peace which now prevails within our own boundaries and at the same time breathes forth the universal prayer from the hearts of our country men that the distrers of nations across the waters may soon be ended.

The German rights renewed onen sive along the Oise is chiefly signifi cant as an attempt to frighten the sllies into backing down the ladder. In fact, the kaiser's smart successes in forcing the allies to give, ground were a warning to the latter of the danger which will threaten tnem ir they weaken the rest of their left wing to throw an overwhelming force against the Belgian frontier. The lack of further news, of the Franco-British movement about Arras suggests that the Germans have suc ceeded In, checking their ' -opponents' northern operations by a sudden con centration at the southern end of their line..

Declaring that" "those candidates whose public careers have shown them to be opposed to every political princi ple cherisned by labor can well be op posed vigorously" by organized labor, the Portland Labor Press, which is the official publication of the Central Labor Council of Portland and vicinity and of the Oregon State Federation of Labor, publishes this week an article telling why organized labor should op pose the candidacies of R. A. Booth for United States senator, Dr. James Wlthycombe for governor and C. N. McArthur for congressman. It. says these men are entitled to no support from labor, and points to their records for proof. The Labor Press says: Rooth for senator. McArthur fo- representative, and Withycombe for governor, are entitled to no support from labor. Ail are entitled to its most vigorous opposition. It is in keeping with a well-known labor slogan to "oppose and defeat" the enemies of labor and of progress, and all enemies of labor are enemies of progress. Becords Are Bared. It is sometimes difficult for a pub lication like the Labor Press to active ly support any certain candidate for an important office when another can didate has an approximately equal fol lowing among the voters represented by it.

The reports of engagements sent out from Petrograd are typical of the ex treme optimism which warfare seems to implant in the bosom of the usually lethargic Slav. Russian accounts or the progress of ferocious battles are Invariably fol lowed by claims of important successes by the czar's troops. If these stories were true the Ger mans should now be in full retreat, leaving the road to Berlin practically open. Instead of this, the road to Cra cow has not yet been cleared.

BOTH ARTHUR HOM CLOTHING! Port of Portland Invites Ves sels of Deep Draft to Come Here, Drpth of Channel Increasing'. A brief record shows depths in the Columbia channel have been increased: 1884 to 1SA4 -17 feet; 1896 20 feet; 1897 to 190121 feet; 1902-22 feet; ! 190323 feet; J504 to 1908"-24 "feetf lt7' to 1910 25 "feet; 19112$; 191227 feet; 1913 28 feet; 191430 feet. In 1911 Mr. Talbot became manager for the port commission; tn 1912 the dredge Willamette was added to the commission's ' quipment which had previously consisted of the dredges Port land and Columbia. S, M. Mears, chairman of the Port ot j'ortland commission, considers an announcement the commission is now able to make the greatest invitation to world commerce and the most valu able advertisement for this port that Portland has ever been able to offer. The channel in the Columbia from Portland to the sea is 30 feet deep. The channel across the bar at the mouth of the Columbia is 31 feet deep. "We are ready for almost any boat' afloat," declared Chairman Mears. The channel from Portland to the sea Is a co-operative work of-the Port of Portland and the engineering de partment of the federal government. The channel across the bar is the work of the United States dredge Chinook, aided by the south jetty and the north jetty to the point to which it has been constructed. The" work for this year is not ended anA by means of it the so-foot chan nel will be confirmed, said Mr. Talbot, manager of -the Port ot Portland com mission, who had reported the condi tion- of the deepened channel to Mr. Mears. ; There is but one point, at Slaugh ter's, where the tide must be depended cn to make tho entire 30 feet. Tne rest has the necessary depth at low water, and the point mentioned will be deepened to 30 feet before the sea son ends. A 30 foot channel from Portland to live, tea, and even deeper across the bar, has Wen Portland's great com merce desideratum for man years. That 1t should now be realized, at the time of the opening of the Panama .canal, . when there- is every prospect of obtaining, greater depth, is con- fcldered the" most optimistic prediction of this city's ascent in commercial im iortarrce.
