The Germans launched four dif ferent attacks. The first, preceded by liquid fire, was directed against a French position between Hill S04 and the Esnes-Hancourt road. This onslaught was repulsed, the Germsns losing heavily. In the second attack, the enemy swarmed In compact masses, attempt ing to carry French positions west of the Esnes-Hancourt highway.

Determined to take the posi tion at any cost, the Germans direct ed exceedingly heavy assaults last night after battering in the redoubt with heavy shells. The French were finally driven out of the -main por tion of the position, retaining the outskirts. FRENCH FAIL TQ RETAKE WORKS Berlin, July 1. Repeated British and French attacks at many points on the German front were "everywhere repulsed," said an official statement from the war office this afternoon. (It Is not clear whether the Ger man official statement refers only to fighting going on last night, or in cludes the operations on the British front going on today.) "French attempts to recapture Froide Terre and Thiaumont works in the fighting around Verdun were repulsed with severe enemy losses." "Prisoners and materials remained In our bands at several places," the war office asserted. "The advances were given Initial impulse by strong artillery fire, gas attacks or blasting. This morning the activity on both sides of the Somme was considerably Increased. "North of Rhelms and north of LeMesnll smaller Infantry details were repulsed. "West of the Meuse there were In fantry combats. East of the Meuse the enemy tried to re-conquer our positions on the Froide Terre and on and near Thiaumont.

THE EVIDENT UNFAIRNESS OF. THIS METHOD LED US TO DISCONTINUE TI IE CLEARANCE SALE PLAN. LAST JANUARY MARKED THE LAST OF THESE SALES 'AND THE ADOPTION OF OUR NEW CASH SYSTEM. The "Sale" Plan is Unfair to Many Customers UNFAIR BECAUSE IT PLACES A TAX ON THE CUSTOMER WHO BUYS IN SEASON.

IF A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF CLOTHES ARE SOLD ON CREDIT OR OUT OF SEASON AT A DISCOUNT, IT FOLLOWS THAT THE MAN WHO BUYS HIS SUIT IN SEASON AND PAYS CASH PAYS TOO BIG A PROFIT.

MEXICAN PRESS APPROVES NOTE Mexico City, July l.--The Mexico City newspapers today vigorously ap proved the statement given out yes terday by Foreign Secretary Agullar, commenting on and refuting asser tions in the American note. The for eign office statement was published In the same editions with the Am erican note which was thus given to the public for the first time. The newspapers printed first a paragrapn of President 'Wilson's communication and then Inserted a paragraph of Agullar's reply answering that par ticular charge. Officials said today that the tone of Aguilar's statement was fully Jus tified, because of the tone of the United States note. They complained that' the United States has sont sev eral sharp and undiplomatic- mess ages to the Mexican government and said that they had withheld the pub lication of many of these, because they do not wish to stir up hostility toward the United States. The foreign office announced today that immediately upon receipt of In formation that Lansing had Issued freBh warning for Americans to leave Mexico, Instructions, were telegraph ed to all civil and .military author ities to give guarantees of protec tion to all Americans and other for eigners within their Jurisdiction. The. war office has received from General Trevlno a, complete official report of the Cardial encounter, In cluding the statement of the Amer ican guide 'Lem Splllsbury, which shows the Americans were the ag gressors. This version of the Carrtzal clash not only supports the previous Mex ican official narrative of that en counter, but gives the new allega tion that Captain Boyd of the Am erican forces, defiantly declared he "would march to Villa Ahumada In the face of fire," It was said In the official report of Colonel Itlvas. After recounting bow Rlvas went out to confer with 'Boyd when the detachment was sighted, how Boyd was warned of the 41 ex leans' orders not to permit further advances, and how General Gomes personally par leyed with Boyd, urging him to wait until word could be received from Juarez as to the right of the Ameri cans to proceed to Villa Ahumada, the statement continues: "To this the overbearing Ameri can chief replied he did not care to lose any more time and would walk over the Mexicans, If necessary. Gen eral Gomes answered that he might march ahead If he thought he was able. Then General Gomel and we who escorted him retired to where our forces were. The American leader did likewise, going to his forces, and ordering his horses chain-' ed up and with his cavalry afoot, ad vanced in open skirmish formation upon our forces, who remained mounted and without making a move until the Americans opened fire at a distance of R0 meters, On request of,General Trevlno, It was announced today that General Carranxa had pro moted Rlvas and five, other Mexican officers for 'constancy In service, gal lantry in action and defense of the country' in the Carrlzal fight."
