FIGHTING ON EAST FRONT
BECOMES DESPERATE
German and Russian Cannon
Thunder About Dvinsk
Fortress Today
Paris, Sept. 30. Tho most intense
fighting of the vast; combnt on the
western front is raging along a line six
miles from Loos to Hill 140. The An-glo-French
forces have penetrated the
enemy's defense in some sections and
have been halted in others. Their ob
jectives are Lens, the Vimy heights and
Douul. Between Souchez and Vimy, the
French positions have beon maintained,
it is officially claimed.
The heaviest battling continues in
the Champagne, but there is no cessa
tion of the struggle at any point. Mean
time, the German forces are making
strong attacks at several points in a
desperate effort to draw off the allies
from the Artois and Champagne
regions.
Thousands have been slain in the
battlo west of Lens. There Germans
are dealing big counter attacks in an
effort to maintain at this highly im
portant point. The bomb battle before
the wire cntagleliieiits thoro has been
terrible.
The first wounded arriving here from
the Lens combat reported that the
British became hopelessly confused
"luring the fight. Smoke of the artil
lery enveloped regimonts and. blotted
from sight fields and hills, while the
roaring guns made it impossible to
bear the commands of officers.
"We got our directions at the start
to charge," said a Trench officer
wounded in the head, "and wo just
tried to keep running that way. It was
impossible to see through the dust and
smoke after wo had gone a snort dis.
L lance. If a bullet or a piece of shell
hit a man's arm he would spin around
.Mini perhaps start in the wrong direc
tion.
"Rut when we got close to the
'bochos' entanglements, we always
Know whore we were. Though the din
of the guns was great, it couldn't drown
out the jells of the men fighting their
way through the entanglements. Every
fresh yell meant that another group
had penetrated the entanglements and
were giving the 'bodies' the steel."
A famous French commander, it is
known, participated in a cavalry at
tack and drove the Germans from their
guns in the Champagne. Prisoners de
clared that the appearance of cavalry
surprised them, for it had been be
lieved cavalry could not be used, par
ticularly in the hilly Champagne region.
The cavalry charge against the Ger
man guns was planned by. General
.loffre, the French commander in chief.
For weeks, the horse had been trained
for the dash into the Teuton fire
zone. ,
" Mobilization cannot 'continue in
definitely," said Premier Venizelos.
11 Greece is prepared to defend Hie in
tegrity of her territory and to with
stand efforts of any other nation to
b"i ome predominant in the Balkns."

TO FAIR GROUNDS
Dtl PORTLAND DAY
Polk County Wins first Place
On Its Agricultural Ex
hibit At Fair
The Portland Day, Transportation
Day and Elks Day at the state fair was
drawing thousands of spectators
through the gates but it is doubtful if
the attendance will reach the record
made yesterday which will stand as the
record breaker for some time to come,
according to old fair goers, who are
confident that more people were in
side tho enclosure yesterday than ever
before.
The general program this morning in
the new auditorium was largely of the
nature of a welcome to the fair visitors
and George Hardy, manager of the
Portland Chamber of Commerce, made
tho principal address. Mr. Hardy is a
genuine booster and the things he suid
about Oregon made every citizen of
the state proud that they had selected
Oregon as a home. Mr. Hardy's re
marks were substantiated by the exhib
its shown and all who attend the fair
this year will see the actual works as
the evidence behind the volumes of
booster talks that have been aivon in
the punt.
I lie livestock parade was pulled off
this afternoon and the blooded stock
filed past tho grandstand bearing their
ribbons won in the competition. The
race program- began at 1:30 with the
grandstand jammed to the roof and the
two special races scheduled for today
aroused keen interest among the lover's
of the sport of kings.
The judges awarded the prize for the
agricultural exhibit to Polk county for
me counties ot tlie second district
which comprises the counties west of
ttie cascade exclusive of tho coast
counties. Benton was second, Lane
third, Clackamas fourth, Linn filth,
.lackson sixth, Multnomah seventh and
Washington eighth. Of the counties
of the third district, which is the east
ern Oregon district, Union comity took
first place. Morrow second, Wallowa
third, Malheur fourth and Umatilla
fifth.
The premiums were awarded nro-
rata for each district, basing the
amount or money to be divided from
each district upon the number of Coun
ties entered. The money to- be divided
according to the score which has not
yet been compiled. Each countv exhib
it draws $100 if its exhibit qualifies
mm in auiimon mere is a special
award of $30 for first, $25 for second
and $15 for third to go to the three
counties scoring the greatest number
of points in each district. Marion coun

Difficult To Understand
Changes In Market
(Copyright 1015 by the New York Ev
ening Post.)
New York, Kept. 30. A market such
as today's, with early advances of one
to five points and subsequent decline
of three to ten points in numerous
stocks, followed by subsequent violent
recovery to tbe.day's highest point will
be regarded differeutly in different
quarters.
To the speculative outside public, the
fact thnt the violent mid-day break
brought such heavy buying orders as to
promptly cancel losse, rs the outstnnd
fact. Their inference will be that noth
ing can really shake the market.
The more conservative are more like
ly to remnrk that the mere fact of n
break testifies to the precarious nature
of tho present speculation.
, The dav'a news was only on the pro
gress of plans for floating the European
loan. This has no immediate bearing on
stock values, but is of the utmost im
portance a an indication of confidence
of our financoial houses in the financial
strength and resources of our country.
It if particularly fortunate for the
borrowing governments that the opera
tion eomes at a time when their armies
on the western front are achieving
something.

CONSCRIPTION NOW
REGARDED AS SURE
TO COME TO BRITAIN
By Ed L. Keen. .
London, Sept. 30. Conscription
draws nearer with each fresh charge
alonir the western battle Hue. The new
allies' successes increase rather than
diminish the possibility of such a step
on the part of the British government.
Something is necessary to fill the gaps
made in the linea by soldiers killed or
wounded in this, perhnps. the greatest
battlo of the war.)
Lord Kitchener, it was learned todny,
put the situation franklv before the
labor union officials during a confer-1
ence Tuosdny. He told them the army
is now of required size, but that the
greatest, prouiem ib io supply irumeu

Kitchener said he did not want to
press conscription except aa a last re
sort. Personally, he said he planned
to divido the country into districts and
ask each to furnish a specified number
of men. If these wore not forthcoming
voluntarily, tho government then would
draft among the eligibles, as the
United States did during the civil war.
This statement deeply impressed tho
labor men, and the result was announce
ment of a vigorous campaign to recruit
the workers.
Headquarters telegraphed to recruit
ing stations: "The falling off in re
cruiting recently has caused Lord
Kitchener and the war office the great
est concorn,"
If conscription bocomes nccessnrv It
is prohablo that the government will
start its drafts with unmarried men be

Confirmation Received
of Telephone Success
San Francisco, Sept. 30. Confirma
tion of the success of the experiment
in wireless telephony between Washing
ton and Honolulu lust night was re
ceived by wiroless telegraphy today by
the officials of the American Telephone
and Telegraph company here.
Confirmation in the form of a tele
phonic reply could nut be received from
the islands last night because there wu
only a receiving instrument there.
Today's illspiitches told the official,
and ,1. J. Carty, the inventor, however,
that the words "hello, hello, hello" and
the numerals "one, two, three ,four
und five" could he distinctly heard in
Honolulu shortly after they were spok
en in Washington.
"The success of this achievement,"
said .1. .1. Carty, chief engineer for the
American Telephone and Telegraph com
pnuy, "depends entirely upon high
wiivo vibrations.
'We can take any ordinary telephone,
hitch it to our apparatus and so modify
the current that It will be strong cnotiga
to kill any person touching one of the
wires.
"I cannot give out any of the techni
cal details because the apparatus is not
patented, and we must protect oiusclve
from haying our ideas stolen.
"Trnns-Atlnntie, wireless telephone
communication is assured as soon aa the
European war Is settled. Telephoning
by wireless across the continent i
much more difficult feat than it wouhl
be to talk across the Atlantic.
"Communication can now be estab
lished between points where it Is im
practical to extend wires. Wireles
telephony will novor take the place ot
wiro system bocause of the Interfer
ence of ntnuiHpheria conditions, but it
may bo expected to supplement them in
many ways.
"One disadvantage that must he over
come is the fact that anyone suitably
equipped tuny listen in on the wireless
telephone."
