St I IAI I ttl Iff-1 HAIlin HALL IVIAlMio m 11 1 1 in 1 1 1 1 1 I I mm r i oLUW KUN Ur UUAol L Steamer Bound Here for Grain Left Balboa Ahead of Vessel Arriving Today. BOTH DELAYED BY SLIDES Efforts Of American Bnglne.rs Bound to Bo Successful Though Long Drawn Out Bay Mariner. Blow time is being made up the coast by the British steamer Haigh Hall, now 19 days out of Balboa lor this port. She left the canal ahead of tho American-Hawaiian liner Dakotan, new in port here after having made tops at Ban Diego, Ban Pedro and Ban Francisco. Both the Dakotan and the Haigh Hail were caught behind the slide at Gal Hard cut and were delayed more than a week. There were at the canal then over 60 vessels and they were three days getting them all through the locks. Hardly had they been locked through before the great slide new causing delays there, occurred. According to Captain Curtis the fa cilities at the canal for combatting the slides are excellent. They have six dredgers, a fleet of nearly a dozen tug boats and probably 100 scows. The material is dug out and hauled to Gatun lake, where it Is dumped out side the regular channel. The present slide occurred over a quarter of a mile from the edge of the canal proper yet the effect was to shove the bottom of the canal up. The channel had only been dug sufficently deep and wide to allow one vessel to squeeze through when the great slide occurred. Cap'taln Curtis and all other Ameri can masters who have passed through the canal are of the opinion that it will bo many years before the slide" at, this point are mastered, but that eventually American -engineering will triumph. It may, they assert, even be necessary to dig the. hills awayfor over a mile on either side and terrace the remaining earth back a, quarter of a mile further before the sliding can bh stopped. 1 The Dukotan brought 2000 tons of f I eight for this port which she is dis charging today ut Albers dock No. 8. bhe will load salmon and general car go at Seattle and San Francisco for Charleston and Boston.

HALF A MILLION MEN HAVE FALLEN DURING PAST 7 DAYS' BATTLE (Continued From Page One) along the Danube, on the Galllpo'l peninsula and along the Caucasus mountains from Buckowina to the Baltic rifty rail Every Kisate. So frightful has been the carnage that BO men have fallen every mmuta of the last week, at least 25 per cent never to rise again. Of the two battles waged in France that in Champagne was by far the fiercest and biggest. General Joffr himself conducted the advance, not aj a picturesque general on a white charger, but sitting attentively at a kitchen tab!e in a wine shop behind the lines while Ills aides with tele phone receivers attached to their cars shouted the latent developments from the various attacking columns. s staff officer states that he sat im passively with his eyes slued to a hug map, making no comments, bu giving .concise orders in a quiet, un emotional voice. Sid Not Stop Even to Eat. For "4 hours General Joffre did not Interrupt his close study of the situa tion, even for a sandwich. It was only when he was satisfied no more could be achieved that he smilingly remarked: "Well, that's done. Now for a snack." After a perfunctory meal he slpt four hours. Meanwhile a few miles distant a scene worthy of Dante's "Inferno" was nemtr enarted on the battlefield. In the dead of tiieht pcores of thousands of blue clad French infantry leaped out of the trenches at the word of command and dashed acress the h round upturned like a plowed field of shells. What the German saw from his shell-battered trench when rockets and star lights illuminated the grim spec tacle was the gleaming point of a fixed bayonet, handled by an infuriated sol dier wearing a mask which gave him the appearance of a howling demon. From a distance the battlefield formed a phantasmagoric spectacle. Lit by greenish lights, the rays of which pierced dense clouds of smoke and poi sonous gases, the troops were seen swaying In a titanic struggle wherein no quarter was given or asked. All around flames leaped from concealed batteries belching high explosives and shrapnel uied Hindenbnrg Tactics. The victory, wnich. produced the greatest'vfrumber of prisoners tha al lies have yet gained at a single blow, was won In true Hindenburg manner. The attacking forces were divided into three columns. While the right and left wings swept forward the central body remained quiescent until the ad vance on the flanks began to converge and act as powerful pinchers. Then the center came on and delivered the last blow, netting regiment after regi ment. One of the most terrible featuresVif the battle was the number of German artillerymen driven mad by the terrific cannonade. French wounded brought to Parts say that during the advancs j they came upon groups huddled around guns which they made no effort to serve. Some were dumb, the teeth of others chattered, while still cther screamed wildly. "These poor wretches," said one sol dier, "were quite harmless. They had gone stark mad." The advance might have gone still farther but for the fact that the Ger- I mans had constructed one huge series of polygontil fortifications as a second line of defense, which the French guns had not played upon. A study of the map, however, shows that It was dls- tlnctly an artillery victory for French. ' the So utter was the destruction that even positions protected by converging gunfire were carried withoat extra ordinary effort. Second Line Being Shelled. Therefore, however strong the second network of German defenses may be, a prepared to apply the necessary weight of metal to flatten them out as they did the first line. Thl. n in fact whuf nn rnln nn in ,h k., i that several days must elapse before the positions are again stormed. A few miles farther east the crown prince failed in what Is described here as a "dynastic offensive, designed to impress the German empire with the military qualities of the Hohenzol lerns." Allies' Munitions Count. He threw 100,000 men against strong ly defended trenches along the wild Argonne hills, and although for a time his densely formed battalions rushed some advanced posts, the French artil lery, which has been battering his new llnejfcained the upper hand, and the infantry were able to drive the German legions back. This action Is held to confirm the Impression derived from the battles of Champagne and Arras, that the great munitions efforts of the allies during the past summer have finally given them the superiority necessary to conduct a general offensive. JUVENILE COURT PAYROLL SOARS TO HIGH FIGURE (Continued From Page One) court, and relieving the Immediate ne cessities of destitute children, and In making inquiries for relatives and friends of runaway children and other necessary expenses. Judge Cleeton said tha salary of Mrs. Thomas Hawkes, who was employed this month as a probation officer, will be paid from that fund. Iast month there was charged against the regular salary fund $1100, and for September the total ill run close to the maximum limit. Kugene Willis, chief clerk, is paid $75 a month out of the juvenile court fund and $40 a month out of the coun ty clerk's fund. He performs work in both departments. The following list shows the number of employes of the juvenile court and the aggregate salaries paid, including that of the chief probation officer, dur ing the last () months that Jude Ga- tens was judge of the juvenile court: rigures Are Submitted. 1914.

The number of employe? and aggregate Salaries, exclusive of that of chief probation officer and a por tion of the salary of the chief clerk, for thfe ensuing three months were as follows: Month. No. Employes. Salaries. June 11 $1,145.82 Julv V..-14 1,125.00 August 13 1,100.00 Chief's Salary Wot Included. It must be borne In mind, however, that in making a comparison of the above figures with the cost of running the department under Judge Gatens, that, as has been stated, these figures do not include the salary of the chief probation officer, amounting to $125 a month, and J40 of the salary of the chief clerk. This is due to the. fact that the chief probation officer also performs work in connection with the insane persons brought before the county court and 18 paid out of county court funds and it is impossible to segregate the portion 0f his salary which should be charged to the cost of maintaining the juvenile court, while the chief clerk also performs work for the county court other than Juvenile court work. The number of employes wjs de creased one In August because one of the employes was away on vacation. For September the number of em ployes has been increased to Itl, ex clusive of the chief probation officer, and the payroll will run close t0 the limit even without counting the sal aries raid out of other funds. XJst of Employes Given. The list of employes for this month, as charged to the juvenile court fund, is as follows: Kmma 1. Butler, probation of ficer for girls 150 H. Maltimore Dukes, assistant probation officer 100 Mrs. June Nlssen, probation of ficer 50 Mrs. A, M. Connell, probation of ficer 50 Mrs. Margare' Thoroman, pro bation officer 100 Mrs. A. K.

Fay to Bs Seduced. Judge Cleeton eaid also that legin ning with October the salary of Miss Butler, chief probation officer for girls, will be reduced at her own sug gestion from $150 to $125 a month. He said she suggested this redaction be cause Harry Bulger, who holds the po sition of chief probation officer for boys although his salary is paid out of county court funds, receives 125 a month. Tne appointment of Crete Evans as probation officer has caused comment because it was known that Evans at one time was a bartender. Judge Clee ton said he asked Evans about the matter and Evans said he tended bar only about three months. As lie had already made public the fact that he intended to appoint Kvans, Judge Clee ton said he felt under obligations to give him a trial. When speaking of salary reductions. Judge Cleeton also said he was going to reduce the salary of S. D. white, superintendent of the Fraser home. which is under the jurisdiction of the Juvenile court. White's salary will be reduced from $123 a month and living expenses to $100 a month and living expensee. This reduction will be made, Judge Cleeton said, because the number ot children at the home is greatly re duced. He has adopted the policy of putting the children out In homes or other institutions as rapidly as pos sible.

It is worth a trial, unless other treatment already is succeeding.
