Four of them were British, one p passenger carrier. The other two were neutralsâ€"one Dutch and the other Norwegian; an American steam- ship was held up, but was allowed to proceed. Admiral Knight, commander of the naval station at NeWport, says that the Nantucket Lightship reported a second German submarine nearby.

It is understood that the Government in- tends to offer bonds of denominations from ten dollars up, which can be pur- chased through the banks, and on which an interest or approximately five per cent. will be earned, redeem- able in five years. The subscriptions to the last two war loans for two huno dred million dollars have in the main come from the larger investors, in amounts of a thousand dollars or up- wards. The issue of the bonds of small denominations is designed to attract investment for several hun- dred thousand men and women who have comparatively small amounts to invest in something that will be both safe and patriotic. This scheme has already been adopted with surprising success in England, where purchasers of Government bonds from one pound sterling up get 4% per cent. interest Denominations From $10 Up With lnteres. of Approximately Fve Per Cent. on their money. On the front between the Vardar and the Cerna Rivers, the Serbian forces have advanced in the mountain- ous region of Dobroupolje, and they have taken 100 prisoners. After des- perate fighting the Serbians have again defeated the B arians on the left bank of the Cerna. ver, and they have captured Skochlvir Village. The enemy made desperate counter-attacks in an attempt to recover his lost ground, but these were all repulsed and he was driven northward a. dis- tance of five-eighth: of a mile. In this fighting the Serbians took 200 prisoners. Bulgars’ Second Line Smashedâ€"200 Prlsoners Taken The steamship Gallia, an auxiliary cruiser carrying 2,000 Serbian and French soldiers, was torpedoed and sunk on October 4 by a submarine. Thirteen hundred and sixty-two men. picked up by a French cruiser and landed in boats on the southern coast of Sardinia, have been accounted for thus far. The Gallla was a 15,100-ton steamship, 574 feet long and sixty-tour feet of beam. She was built in the Seine in 1913 and owned by the Com- pagnie de Navigation Sud Athantique of Bordeaux. She was one of the larger vessels sunk by submarines dur- ing the war, having been only 700 tons smaller than the White Star liner Arabic. ’npon John Redmond's speech attack- Hng the plan to extend conscription fto Ireland, sounded warnings. i “If anybody seriously believed that ‘the Irish Nationalist party could be driven or cajoled into 3006 tance of goonacflption in Ireland ‘ t Edie! The Gallia’s recent movements have not been disclosed, as she was in Government services. Early this year Serbian troops were taken to Bizerta. Tunis. which is south of Sardinia. The Gallia may have been on her way from Tunis with troops for the Mace- donian front.

TAKE LE SARS VILLAGE :Attempt by Germans to Regain Lost Ground Repuleedâ€"Frenoh Drive Ahead Three-quarters of a Mile By a series of local attacks the British have extended and strengthen- ed their lines in the Thiepval re ion, according to a report from Gen. aig. Further ground north ot the Stuff re- donbt was captured. This operation was carried out after the Germans, durin the night. had launched coun- tehat acks against the British trout. In the first attack they succeeded in winning a foo in some first-line trenches in the . 11ml area. Their second attack carried to the British second line, but the men who entered this line later were taken prisoners. The allies struck another mighty blow on the Somme front, on a line from the Albert-Bapaume road to Bouchavesnes. As a result the village of Le Sars is in British hands. The British smashed forward from 600 to 1,000 yards on a mile and a half front between Gueudecourt and Les Bmufs. while the French drove ahead more than three-quarters of a mile north- east of Morval. Their advance has brought them to the Sailly-Sallisel highlands. They have seized control of the Bapaume-Peronne road for a dismnce of 200 yards around Sailly, and have gained a foothold on the 81"")pc75 of Hill No. 130. In addition the southern and south-western bor- ders of the St. Plerre-Vaast Wood are in their hands.

Bmians Advance at Some Points- Offensive Short-lived Renewing the great battle of Vol- ynia, east of V’ladimirâ€"Volynski, the ussians have entered parts oi the Teutonic lines, and they have consoli- dated the new positions. The brunt of the fighting is proceeding in the regions of Zaturze, Sheivov and Bub- navo. The engagement is being taught with great stubbornness on both sides. The Russians have man- hged to advance at some points. o The Russians are throwing great masses of troops into these struggles In order to wear down the Teutonic fines. The carnage on both sides is eavy. T210 movement towards Vladi- mir-Volynski is a threat both to K0761 and Lelnberg from the south and north.
