LONDON, May 10 A liritish force of light cruisers and destroyers chased eleven Cennan de.sti'over.s to day, engaging lb. in at long range, but being unable to overtake them, says an official statement this afternoon. A scouting forco consisting of light cruisers mid destroyers from Harwich under Commodore Tyrwhltt, while cruising between tho Dutch and English coasts this morning sighted a force of eleven German destroyers about 4 o'clock, Greenwich time, on a parallel cruise and to the southward." "Our forces Immediately closed and on our opening fire tho enemy at onco made off at full speed to the south ward under cover of a dense smoke screen. The chase was continued for one hour and twenty minutes and the enemy was engaged at long range, but our force was unable to overtake him. Four British destroyers chased the eleven German destroyers to with in range of the guns of the batteries at Zeebrugge. "Our casualties were one man slightly wounded. The enemy's de stroyers were seen to: be hit by our fire." TIGHTEN GRIP UPON LENS. (Continued from Fage One.) not to be evacuated and the fall of Lens rendered certain. The enormous concentration of German divisions on the British front power give a decided significance to the reports that Field Jlarshal von Hindenburg is withdrawing both men and artillery from the eastern area. The disorganization of Russian army has apparently had a very serious ef fect on the whole allied situation and has materially Increased the burdens Imposed on the British and French. The news from Russia Is far from reassuring in any respect and appar ently the provisional government is still In a precarious position. French Capture Fortress, PARIS, May 10. A fortified posi tion on the Vauclerc plateau was cap tured last night by the French, it Is announced officially. Heavy nrtlllery fighting continues in this region where the Germans made counter attack with a division of fresh troops. Sovcral German counter attacks along the Chemln-Des-Danies were repulsed. The statement follows: "During the night the enemy at tempted without success several rath er feeblo counter attacks at various points aong the Chemln-Des-Damcs. All his efforts were defeated by our fire. A counter attack in greater forco again positions carried by us In tho region of Chevroux mot with the same fate and did not prevent us from making further progress and capturing a fortified point of support. Prisoners and a machine gun remain ed In our hands. "On the northern slopes of the Vauclerc plateau we carried out an operation which enabled us to enlarge our gains and to take prisoners be longing to a division of troops which arrived recently on this part of tho front. Artillery fighting continues actively in those sectors. East of hill 108 near La Pompelle, north of Ilesonvaux and In the region of Mctz eral petrol skirmishes and grenade fighting occurred. "In formation now at hand shows that flvo German airplanes reported to have been damaged seriously on April 24, May 2, May 4, May 5. and May 7 were In reality brought down. Yesterday our pilots caused two Ger man airplanes to fall in flames." NEW YORK, May 10. The trial of the five members of the News print Manufacturers' association and two others charged with violation of the Sherman anti-trust law for al leged price-fixing, was today set In the federal court for October. 10 CLOSE DURING E A further assurance of the general enthusiasm for the big Red Cross pa rade the "Do our bit" pantile nex Wednesday and for its unqualified success was announced this morning in the declaration of the Med ford Merchants' association that the direc tors had today petitioned Mayor Gates that all stoics in Mcdford should close between the hours of 10 and 1'2 o'clock on Wednesday, May Kith, and that the association would participate in the purnde as a unit. In taking tins notion the director), stated that they realized that the oc casion, ill its patriotic phase, was different from any closing that the merchants had ever before made. In this opinion they have the precedent of the large eastern cities including Chicago and New York where nil bus. iness ceased a full half day for sim ilar occasions. To assure a closing a Seei:il let ter is being addressed to all members stating the patriotic features of the locking of all doors. All of the banks of the city have announced their in tention of shutting their doors for the two hours of the parade and those stores not affiliated with the Mer- liants' association nre supporting Ihc movement and the indications arc that it will bo impossible to do a cent's worth of business in Medford for the two hours of the parade next Wednesday. Additional organizations nre con tinuing to enroll themselves in the already large list of participants and it is learned that a number of organ izations in addition to the Red Cross and military organizations, such as the Girls' Honor Guard and Colony club expect to march in uniforms es pecially designed for the occasion. At the drill of the Home Guard last night much enthusiasm was brought out for the big event and in order to prepare for the marching order a spe cial drill will he held Tuesday night at the high school nt which nil mem bers arc urged to bo present. All organizations should carefully watch the ptipers for announcement of assembly points which will bo an nounced in dclail by the committee a little later. FIVE BILLIONS WAR EXPENSES (Continued from Pago One.) was possibly the "highest, most un scientific and Inequalable ever writ ten," and It could only be defended on the ground of tho need for $200,000, 000 and nowhere else to get It. "Every man ought to know that the Btops wo aro taking are Just the be ginning," Mr. Kitrhln told tho house. "Wo will put more money Into this war than any other country." Beside the tax which other coun tries at war aro paying, those levied under this bill, ho said, looked "ridic ulously small." ROOSEVELT CANNOT GO.

While llicy preferred the narrower age limits of I he senate bill, as it would yield on the whole a younger lot of nicit, they were satis fied with rejection of the house pro vision which extended the age as far as forty. Senator Krnnce of Maryland, be lieving the bill defective because of the limited rnnu'e of nycs, introduced today a separate resolution to cm power tin1 president to enroll nil men between H and 45 for national de fence, r-iinultiincously wilh the selec tive conscription regis! ration.

One of the men is being held in the county jail at Jacksonville and the other ill the ilv prison here. County Prosecutor Roberts was busy Thursday i" questioning the prisoners separately, while duel ol Police Hittson and Sheriff Jennings were busy looking after additional evidence. While the prosecutor has sworn to n warrant chnrginir bur glary, the prisoners will probably not be arraigned before justice laylor for several days. v The arrests were made Wednesday by Chief Hittson assisted by Consta ble Hammond. The first clue obtain ed was when the men who are strangers in this community came to the Bungalow grocery on Riverside avenue the morning after the bur glary, claiming they were camped on Bear creek, purchased frying pans, bacon, etc., and wanted to tret paper money for a $20 gold piece. The police were notified and given de scriptions of tho men, and on inves- ligation it wus found that they had visited other stores in the cily and sought to get paper money for gold, and nt one bank hud made such an exchange. Several .$20 gold pieces were taken from the Mercantile com pany's safe by the burglars. Chief Hittson caught sight of the men Wednesday on Main street, but before he could reach them they sep arated, lie seized one of them and shouted to Constable Hammond to top the other. The prisoners tell conflicting stories. , Portland Livstock PORTLAND, Ore., May 10. Hogs. steady to lower; receipts, 199.
