"The official reply to Foreign Min ister Hunan's note hits not yet been uceived ami therefore the ronson.-i which prompted the attitude of the governments of the entente cannot be discussed at present. Only from Secretary Ilnlfour is nn exhaustive iseiission of our suggestion avail' able. His arguments show how cor rectly Baron Hunan's proposal judg ed the situation, and only the adop tion of Huron Burian's line of think ing could master the confusion of minds nrevniling everywhere until to- "The peace question as discussed by Secretary Balfour and the same applies to the debates in the French and American senates under the pressure of hip words, can naturally r. ake no favorable progress. l'rnp-(-r)y re purged Air.

Evening. ( neu ters, via Montreal). The ground over which the Germans counter at tacked the British at Moeuvres and Troscsult Is covered with dead and the enemy casualties are estimated to have been forty per cent of the troops engaged. The Germans attack ed In dense waves, but the assaulting ranks were mowed down. Particularly sironn were the Ger man etfoitB against the British posi tions cast of High and Havrincourt woods. t Here the enemy is reported to have reached xno British position nt several places, but very few Ger mans were able to get out alive. Prisoners taken by the British say that the allied attack was expected north of Gouzeaucourt. When the British struck on a 15-mile front south of that town the . Germans changed their plans and assumed the offensive north of Gouzeaucourt with disastrous results.' In in order to his troops concern ing raiding activity, General Buelow, commanding the 17th army, says: "This shows at the prosent time the British have fighting superiority over our troops In No Man's Land.

Early last Summer a maker of quality Houses, wrote ns to the effect that he had made very extensive purchases of fine Silks (Georgette and Crepe de Chine) the forepart j of tli is year; that both because of the large quantities or- dered and the time at which the order was placed the 55 prices were sharplv under the prevailing market quota- E5 5 tions; further, that he. proposed to make up these Silks into Blouses for his regular accounts for delivery during the Fall and Winter months; that each mouth a certain quota made, up in the latest and most wanted styles would be delivered, and that as a result of the numerous savings that would result from the co-operative method the values would be the most unusual.
