ATTACK g. Ran A o/ A^arne C/eareJ Ry Americans Conde Wood and Hill 231 Causes Fight by U. S.-French Troops— Partially Cleared To day. FEW CAUGHT IN FRENCH CELLAR Rescued by Comrades When Boches Were Forced to Retreat— French Command Praises Americans. BULLETIN. (By Fred S. Ferguson, United Press Staff Correspondent.) With the Americans on the Marne, Juty 17—(8:44 a. m.)—American troops having thrown the Germans hack across the Marne on their sector east of Chateau Thierry, are aiding the French to clear the enemy from the south hank farther to the east ward. Co-operating with the French, the Americans have partiaiiy cleared Conde wood and have taken Hiil 231 and the village of La Chappelle Monthodon. (Conde wood is south of Courtemont and its western fringe evidently formed the American right flank. Hill 231 and La Chapelle-Mon thodon are a short distance to the eastward of the wood.) The Americans operating alone en tirely cleared the south bank of the Marne in the region from Mezy to Jaulgonne. (A front of more than two miles). It now develops that the Americans never completely evacuated Mezy (on the south hank of the river, five miles east and north of Chateau Thierry). One platoon hid in a cellar es the boches rushed in. As the enemy flowed past them in a seemingly never-ending flood, this tiny garrison held out, fighting desperately and in flicting great losses. The main force of Americans fell back slowly, contesting every inch of ground with the grey-cl^d infantry The little group in the cellar fought on like an islet in a rushing torrent. Then when the American counter attack drove the Germans back upon the river the platoon—what remained of it—riddled the ranks of the retreat ing boches with machine guns There was a joyful reunion when the little garrison was again absorbed into the American tanks. Two companies of Americans (300 tnen) in attempting to Bank a large force of retreating Germans, drove forward so rapidly that they were cut oft and surrounded ir a wood Called upon to surrender, their answer was a crashing voliey. Before the boches could recover from the surprise, the doughboys rushed them with bayonets and cut their way back to the Ameri can lines with surprisingiy few casualties. The Americans today received the highest praise from the French com mand for their excellent work in the last two days' fighting. German morate is said to be much lower than in any previous stage of the offensive. They have aiready used up a large part of their reserves. Prisoners reveal the boches' increaa !ng respect for American fighting qualities and declare the German losses were extremely heavy. A map taken from a captured Ger man officer shows that the two Ameri can hospitals, deliberately bombed by German airmen far In the rear of our lines, Monday night, were piainiy marked. Several cases have been reported of boches being captured whiie wear ing American and French uniforms.

Karch in Of&ce Tomorrow. WILL PRACTICE IN BELLEVILLE And Devote Attention to Federal Law, Is Plans of Retiring At torney. John G. Burnside, of Vandaiia, I!!., recently appointed United States Dis trict Attorney, for the Eastern Dis trict of Illinois, will arrive in East St. Louis tomorrow morning to assume the duties of his new office, it was learned today. He is to succeed Charles A. Karch who has held the office for the past four years. What plans Attorney Burnside has for the local office could not be team ed, but it is presumed the headquart ers will continue to be maintained here as all of the principal offices of the Federal District have now been established in East St. Louis. A rumor current that Mr. Burnside would change the location to his home town, Vandaiia, making the local office mere ly a branch and leave an assistant in charge, could not be verified. Attorney Karch, who started many cases since the first of the year, will remain at the office during the next month, initiating his successor into I the duties of the office and of the i cases which will come up before the next Grand Jury. In many of these the evidence already is complete for! (Continued on page seven.) RENTAL INCREASES MAY CAUSE ACHON AGAMST LANDLORDS U. S. Attorney Karch May Start Action to Punish "Profiteers" in Real Estate. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF RESIDENTS Wait Until Coal Supply Is Laid in, Then Ask for Big Increase in Rentals. Charges that landlords of East St. Louis and St. Clair County have taken advantage of the present high scale of wages in all branches of industry to increase rents from 50 per cent to 600 per cent have been brought to the attention of Federal agents, United States District Attorney Charles A. Karch announced this morning. An investigation has been started and prosecutions will follow if immediate steps are not taken to change condi tions. The contemptible part of the affair, Attorney Karch said to a reporter for the Daily Journal today, is the fact that the landlords have invariably waited until the householder has laid in his next winter's supply of coal before facing him with the increased rental. Protests, of course, have been made to the owners of the properties, but without effect. This is "profiteering" in the truest sense of the word, he added, and it is a direct blow at the government, by halting the sale of coal in the sum mer. Tenants in other properties re fuse to lay in their winter supplies when faced with the possibility that their rents will be raised immediately afterwards. While complaints have been made, Attorney Karch said, ten ants have paid the increased "tax" rather than move and lose the coai which had been purchased, in many instances, at great cost and loss of working time. Several cases in Freeburg have been brought to the attention of author ities, it was learned today, when a resolution adopted by the Miners' Union of that city was made public. This measure protested the raise in rentals and demanded an investigation by the Department of Justice. One instance was cited where the rent was raised from $8 monthly to $50 a month. Landlords in smaller towns have taken advantage of the scarcity ot homes, Attorney Karch added, and mining towns in particular have been affected. The miners are working every day and earning higher wages than ever before and the greedy prop erty owners were quick to realize the situation. !n many cases miners mov ed their families away from towns (Continued on Pa#* atw* DESPERATE EFFORTS TO CAPTURE C!TY BEMG MADE Teutons Hold Meager Gains at Great Cost to Human Life—Failure of Offensive Is Pre dicted by Allied Com manders.

Plans for the raisin? of $80,000,000 to be known as a great centenary of fering of the church for home and foreign missionary work were out lined yesterday at a gathering of min isters at the Despiaines camp meeting. The Rev. Fred B. Fisher, D. D., of New York City, gave the first of six addresses on the subject. He is a member of the commission to direct the project. Much interest was aroused when Dr. Fisher to!d the min isters that a weaithy New York busi ness man had aiready turned over to the commission collateral amounting to $750,000 with which to begin opera tions on the new movement.

"We wiil follow the military divi sional plan adopted by the govern ment in its big drives for Liberty loans and other war funds," saitf Dr. Fisher. "The entire denomination will be di vided into zones and a process of sev eral weeks of educational propaganda will be carried out and then a great ten-day drive will bring us to the goal for $80,000,000." Aims at Nation's Foes. The minister declared further that this wit! put the church on a basis where it can meet the great evangel istic emergency that will follow the war. "If the church had been able to do its real work in New York City when Trotsky was holding his Bolshevik meetings in a second-story room over a saloon in that city and defaming American democracy as plutocratic," said Dr. Usher, "we might have shown him the better side of our country and so have saved Russia." The Rev. Dr. C. A. Carpenter, Oak Park, in his address at the afternoon service, said: "Some people think that the world is going to the devil. I think that the war is going to bring the world back to Cod. If we leave the spiritual side of our life out of America now, in our eagerness for war preparation, at the end <f the war we will be as barbaric and bad as the Huns."

London, July 17.—The second day of the new Champagne drive was lim ited to frantic efforts by the Germans to maintain !oca] gains they won in their initial rush. The outstanding features of the battie as reported by iast night's official communiques was passing of the initiative into the hands of the aities on most parts of the front indicated by the great number of counter-attacks. It has been established that the Ger mans' losses were extremely heavy. The night Paris official report also said that great numbers of prisoners were taken, but the only figures ob tainable are 3,000, of which 2,000 were taken by the Americans in their count er attack on the Marne. Berlin claim ed more than 13,000 prisoners. At no point in the fifty mile battle front did the enemy even come close to attaining any of his ambitious geographical or strategic objectives. The greatest gains either claimed by the Germans or admitted by the French arc less than four miles. These are between Rheims and the Marne and east of Rheims, between Prunay and Brosnos. American lines south of the Marne were completely re-estabiished by their counter attacks which lasted from noon Monday far into the night. To the right of the American positions the Germans retained their bridge head on the south bank. Americans aided the French there by co-operating in the iatter's counter attacks recover ing several smaii villages won from the French. The battle line now apparently runs from Vaux southward to A:y, north eastward along the right bank to Courtemont, thence southward across the river to the vieinity of St. Agnan, eastward to La Chappelle-Monthodon northeastward across the Marne to fhatillon-Sur-Mame, thence eastward and northward to Pourcy, thence northward to Sligny, northeastward to I,a Neuville, eastward (north of Rheims to Betheny, southeastward to Prunay. eastward to Proses, north-1 eastward to the original line at the Sippe River near Doutrien, thence southeastward to Sauain, eastward to Perthes-Les Hnrlus. thence northeast ward to the original line and eastward along the original line to Main de Mas siges„ LEWiS-FCR-SENATOR PETiHONS !N HANDS OF ANH-SULUVANS IIHnois Senator, With President s Letter, WiH Make Straight Democratic Fight.

July 17.—Any douM as to the manner in which the senatorial candidacy of Senator James Hamilton Lewis is to be offered to the voters of liiinois in November was dissipated yesterday. Official petitions were placed in circulation at the headquar ters of the anti-Sullivan Democrats at. Hotel Morrison for Senator Lewis as a candidate in the Democratic pri maries in September. Following the publication Sunday of the ietter from President Wilson re questing Senator Lewis to seek an other term and of the repty from Sen ator Lewis acquiescing there was much speculation among interested potiticians. Democratic and Republi can. as to exactly how Mr. Lewis' name was to get on the ballot. Phrase Causes Speculat'd. *The phrase in the Lewis let'er to the President that said: 'I shaii go to the peopie of Illinois upon no narrow dis tinction of name. Republican or Demo crat," was constructed in several quar ters as indicating possibly that the senator did not expect to be a candi date in the Democratic primaries, but woutd have a petition hied as an in dependent nominee at the November election. The straightaway Democratic peti tions for Senator Lewis that wore started into circutation yesterday dis posed of the speculation. The petition states that the petitioners, "members of and affiliated with the Democratic party." petition that Senator Lewis shall be a candidate of the Demo cratic party for the nomination of United States senator." The petition gives Senator Lewis' residence as the Virginia hotel, Rush and East Ohio streets. Method Causes Talk. Considerable surprise was expressed by interested Democrats that the Lewis petitions shouid be handied by the anttSuilivaa organization, in view of the fact that strong efforts have been made from Washington to secure for the senator the unatioyed support of Roger C. Sutlivan and the reguiar Democratic organization in Cook county and the state at large. One pian that is cooking is to have the Democratic state committee, in session next Monday at Hotel Sher man, formaily indorse the Lewis can didacy. May Hold Convention Here.

Newspaper# everywhere are Invited to copy this atatement for the benefit of their readers. It is suggested that physicians make a record of t: and keep it in the r ofheos so that they may intelligently an sxer questions of pahents concerning it Everybody is advised to cut it out and keep it. A copy of the actus! sworn statement will be sent to any one who de sires such. It is as follows: Iron Peptonate (Special Specific Stand ard) Quantity given below. Sodium Gly csrophosphates U. S. P.

Each dose of two tablets of Nuxated Iron contains one and one half giains of organic iron in the form of iron peptonate of a special specific standard which in our opinion possesses superior qualities to any other known form of iron. By using other makes of Iron Peptonate we could have put the same quantity of actual iron in the tablets at less than one fourth the eost to us. and by using metallic iron we could have accomplished the same thing at less than one twelfth the cost; but by so doing we must have most certainly im paired their therapeutic efficacy. Glycero phosphates used in Nuxated Iron is one of the most expensive tonic ingredients known. It is especially recommended to build up the nerve force and thereby in crease brain power, as glycerophosphates sre 9*13 to eontain phosphorous in a state very similar to that in which it is found in the nerve and brain cells of man. As will he seen from the above, two im portant ingredients of Nuxated Iron (Iron Peptonate and Glvcerophosphates) are very expensive products as compared with most other tonics. lender such circumstances the tempta tlon to adulteration and substitution by unscrupulous persons is eery great, and the public is hereby wsrncd to be care fn! and see every bottle is plsinlv lsbeled ''XI'XATfD IRON" by the Dae Health I aboratorles, Paris.

THE WAR KUCHEN By SALUE SCOTT Communications, Recipes, Queries, Etc., Should Be Addressed: The Daiiy Journal, care of Saiiie Scott. There is one food for which neither! this war nor any other war wiii everj teach us to use a substitute. This food is milk, it contains ait the food ciements and there is no substitute j for it. Mtik is the one food which Is caiied "perfect." Unofrtunateiy it is, as a ruie, considered oniy a bev erage, used as is coffee, tea or water, it is a food and shouid be used more extensiveiy in preparing our meals, to take the piace of other foods, and especiaiiy meat. There are many uses for sour mtik. in making qutek hot breads and for cottage cheese, and other nourishing things. in the foiiowing recipes the founda tion is a quart of miik. Not oniy whoie miik shouid he used, but j ekimmed miik as weii: Fioating isiand. 1 quart of miik. 3 eggs. cupfui of sugar. Ss teaspoonfui of vauiiia or other fiavoring to taste. ts teaspoonfui of sait. Put the miik into the top of a douhie boiier. Beat the whites of the eggs untit dry; put a spoonfu) in at a time, cover, and boii for five minutes. Re move with a skimmer. When ali are boiied piace in a shaiiow dish. Beat the yoiks of the eggs, sugar, sait and vaniila together; add to the boding miik, and remove from the fire at once. Pour around the whites of eggs. Cocoanut Pudding. 1 quart of miik. 1 cupfui of fresh grated cocoanut. 3 cupfuis of hneiy diced or Crumbied Bread. cupfui of sugar. 3 eggs. 1 teaspoonfui of butter substi tute. A pinch of salt. Beat the eggs, sugar, sait and miik' together; add the cocoanut. Butter an! earthen dish, put in haif the bread.; haif the cocoanut mixture, the rest ofi bread and the rest of the cocoanut. I Spread cocoanut over the top. Bake! in a siow oven for one hour. Bran or whole w heat bread is best to use for j making this pudding. Corn Chowder. 1 quart of milk. 2 cupfuls of diced potatoes. 2 cupfuls of granted fresh com, or 2 cupfuls of canned corn put through a food chopper. 2 tablespoons of butter substi tute. 2 tablespoonfuls of flour. 1 teaspoonful of salt. teaspoonful of scraped onion pr grated nutmeg. Pepper to taste. First put the potatoes on to boil, with water to cover, and hoi! until very tender; do not drain: add the corn, flour and butter substitute, rubbed together until smooth, and boil for ten minutes; add seasoning and flavoring, and the milk, which has been brought to a boil. Sprinkle with paprika and serve with croutons or crackers This takes the place of a meat dish. Green pea and Lima-hean chowders are made the same way as corn chowder, but the peas or beans must be boiled until tender with the po tatoes; or six cupfuls of diced pota toes are used for potato chowder. A quart of whole milk gives as much nourishment as a pound of lean meat. Cheese has steadily jogged up in the scale of popularity until almost twice the amount is used today that was consumed this time last year. It has a great advantage in the fact that it is always ready and can be eaten without further preparation, if pre ferred. Cheese and Macaroni. cupfui of macaroni broken into smaii pieces. 1 tabiespoonfui of chopped green peppers. 3 cheeses. 1 tabiespoonfui of butter. 1 teaspoonfui of onion juice. 1 teaspoonfui of chopped parsiey. Sait and pepper. Cook the macaroni in boiiing water untii tender; rinse in coid water: cook the parsiey, onion and green peppers in a iittie water with butter. Mix ai) the ingredients together with the cheese and bake in a moderate oven for about fifteen minutes. Scrambied Egg6 With Cottage Cheese. For each egg use one tabiespoon fui of miik, a third of a teaspoonfui of sait, plenty of pepper, one rounding tabiespoonfui of cottage cheese, a pinch of baking soda, and fat to grease the pan. Mix the eggs, season ings and one tabiespoonfui of miik for each egg. Scrambie the eggs as usuai in a greased pan untii entirety cooked. Keutraiize the acid in the cheese with soda, and stir into the egg. Serve immediateiy. Variations: Parsiey and pimento, or chives, added to the egg. Cottage-Cheese Saiad. Cottage cheese iends itseif especiaiiv weit to saiads. if enough cheese is used, the saiad may serve as the main dish of the meai. French, mayonnaise and boiied dressing aii go weli with cheese saiad The cheese may he formed into baiis or siices, it may be moided in tiny cups ot passed through a pastry tube. Variations Foods that combine wet! with cottage cheese in saiads are crisp fresh vegetables, rooked or canned vegetabies, fresh. dried, canned or preserved fruits, nuts, oiives. rice, potatoes. With the two iast some highiy flavored and bright coiored garnish like pimento or green peppers should be used. Crisp crack crs are acceptabie accompaniments.

Special— Chicago, July 16.—Declaring that the adjournment of politics which was proclaimed by the President and trum peted about the country by the demo crats was audible but not visible, Con gressman Medil! McCormick today as serted that the Republican party would work to win the elections this j year in order to win the war and then give the after the war problems their proper attention. "We, who are republicans, are con certing our energies" said Mr. Mc Cormick, "because we do not intend that America shall suffer because of her unreadiness for peace as certainly she must suffer,—and terribly suffer, because she was unready for war." Mr. McCormick spoke at the lunch eon given in his honor by the Repub lican Woman's Loyalty Committee. This committee was organized to work for the election of loyal candidates for office in Illinois this year. It en dorsed Mr McCormick for the Senate. Referring to women's part in the war, the congressman said: "We are gathered for a purpose at once par tisan and patriotic. The beginning of a Senatorial campaign in Chicago is marked by the assembling of women to consider the issues. Women in Illi nois cannot vote for any of the ofhcers of the nation, except the President, but such is their actual and so great is their potential power that the world must reckon with them by anticipa tion. "It is true that we are compelled to act for our political self-preserva tion. We have had it dramatically demonstrated in Wisconsin, and again in Michigan, that fact and profession rhay contradict one another. The poli tical adjournment trumpeted to the comers of the country was momentar ity audible, if you please, but it has also been invisible. "Since by decision of the President, politics there will be, we propose to do everything within our power to win the war now, and to plan for the fu ture. We shall have to plan for ex panding markets abroad. We shall have to hold our government to a close study of the welfare of business at home." Mr. McCormick then proceed ed to discuss the after the war prob lems as follows: "The fixing of the price of wheat, the difficulty in fixing the price of milk, the vagaries in the price of cot ton, the problem of labor on the farm, all cry out to prove that while our State and National governments have contributed greatly to advance the science of agriculture, they have not thought a great deal about the busi- ness of farming. By that I mean the problems of production and of com- j merce as they effect the people who work in the open country. "We have been as careiess of the third element which makes up Ameri can society, as we have of the business man and the farmer. "Women may very properly look to me in the future to speak and to act as a champion of children and women in industry, as I have in the past, when such championship was perhaps more conspicuous and less comfortable than it is today. I^et me say very plainly, that am one of those who believe that the national government, by act of Congress, must attack the problem of child labor, as it must limit the hours of labor for women, the product of whose toil enters into interstate commerce. As a humble politician— neither lawyer or legalist, I am just as much stirred by Justice Holmes' dissenting opinion in the child labor case as I am bewildered by the reason ing which says that the nation may strike down a lottery in Louisiana, but is powerless to stretch out its hand to stop the sweating of little children. If that decision, which, by the major ity of a single mind denied the power of Congress, continues to stand, we shall have to amend the Federal con stitution. "This leads me to the consideration of another phase of our life. From time to time, we ought to convey to our governments greater powers to deal with the growing complexity of life in America. We have not propor tionately added to the efficiency of our public service. The government is not going to be able to t*sand up under its growing burdens, and the American people are not going to be able to de velop under the new weight of tax ation, unless we impart to public ad ministration a new energy and a new efficiency. We are resolved to teach Germany democracy at the point of the bayonet. Let us at the same time resolve to conquer for ourselves—for republican democracy—something of the extraordinary administrative skill and efficiency which now serve mon archial autocracy. "We enter politics, we follow new and old vocations, in the spirit of the hour. We are all seeking to serve our common country. If we are success ful in the pending political campaign, well and good; if not, let me say for myself that I shall have no time for disappointment or to quarrel with the decision of the voters. I shall abide by that and seek some other service. The past is dropping from us; we are looking to the future. The dying Richelieu said that he had no enemies but those of France. Let us say that in this crisis we may have opponents, differences, but no enemities and no enemies but those of America." 35—CANNiNG FRUIT JUtCES. By Laura Buffum. (Domestic Science Expert of the Na tionai War Garden Commission. Washington. D. C.) The preparation of quantities of fruit jeiiies in these days is neither heipfui toward food conservation or economicai. Sugar is expensive, but even if we can buy it without incon venience, it is one of the things needed for shipment to our Atiies. The aiternative ofTered instead of jeiiy making is to can fruit juices. Juice from grapes, currants, cherries, biackberries. raspberries, strawberries, piums and appies makes deiicious beverages. These may be put up with a smaii quantity of sugar or with none. Write to the National War Garden Commission, Washington, for a free canning manual, which will be sent you upon request. A 2cent stamp to cover postage should be enclosed. Sound, clean fruit should be heated untii soft (over hot water, a double boiler device is safest). Strain through a bag. squeezing the bag, or use a fruit press Inexpensive ones t for household use may be obtained and they are a great convenience. Pour the hot juice at once into sterilized bottles—one level cupful of sugar into each gallon of juice may be first added if desired Fill the bot ties to within one inch of the top and seal loosely with new corks soaked onehalf hour in warm soda water (one teaspoonful soda to a quart of water), and dipped into clear boiling water just before using Place in simmering hot water bath and pasteurize in this for 30 minutes. The water should come to within an inch of tops of bottles. Remove and press corks in tight. With a sharp knife cut off each cork even with the top. placing the neck of bottle on edge of table. When cool dip each top of bottle into melted paraffin or sealing wax. Equal parts resin and beeswax melted together make good wax. Melt over hot water. Store in a cool, dark place.

MASON United Preee War Expert New York, July 16—Yon Hindenburg has received the most serious cheek of the year and has failed to draw Gen. Foch's reserves away from the defenses of Paris and the channel ports to the eastern side of the Aisne Mame wedge. Some siight German gains have been registered, but the inability of Von Hindenburg to ad vance at crucial points has been par ticularly noticeable in the three sec tors heid by American troops. North of Chateau Thierry, south of the Marne, opposite the Jaulgonne bend and east of Rheims are the principal sectors where decisive checks have been administered to Von Hindenburg. in each case American participation in the fighting was the decisive in fluence. To the east of the American area south of the Marne the Germans have extended their front slightly, but the effect of this purely local success has been greatly lessened by the American victory in the Jaul gonne bend. It is here that the prin cipal railway from the south runs in to the allied front. By driving the Germans back in this area the Ameri cans have saved the iine of commun ications on which the French are now depending for their munitions. This is a fact which must rank as a major accomplishment. Yon Hindenburg is now* apparently concentrating his forces at the south east corner of the Aisne Marne wedge. His purpose is to try to move east ward along the Marne to Epernay. It is a reckless adventure without high strategic vaiue. The affair of the fifth offensive, in fact, increasingly seems to have been planned in des peration. Starting the Brat offensive toward the west the German beast has been so successfully headed off that he has described a half circle and is now biindiy trying to move eastward, in stead of Paris the objective is now Epernay. Epernay is where the cham pagne comes from There are thous ands of bottles in the celtars of Eper nay. A drunken orgy as the objective of a main offensive That sems to be the Bnal ideal for which the German people are being siaughtered at Von Hindenbnrg's Moody command. Keroaena.

With the American Boys at the Fropt, June 19—(By Mail)—We are grateful to be over here with our army and feei we are having wonderful luck to be able to make doughnuts and pies fot our bit in the war. We had no idea at all what our work would be when we Srst came, but we were quite prepared for any thing. We oniy feared that we would not be sent to the front and would be doomed to remain in the rear. At Bordeau. when I landed and met the colonel, my first words were to ask him to send me as far forward as he could. He smiled and said noth ing, so 1 waited in suspense. Gladys, my sister, had come over eariier, and was then "somewhere in Franca at the front." There was joy for me when the colonel gave me or ders to go to the little village where my sister was working, the most ad vanced point at which women were allowed in our army, and probably in any army. Order Brings Joy. 1 had anticipated a gradual advance into the zone of the army from one post to another and was trying hard to keep from letting my eagerness to go where they were thickest from get ting the best of me. My delight was all the greater on that account and little sister and I had a joyous re union. There is no way to tell how happy we are to be here. Our soldier boys are the best in the world. They ap preciate the tiniest thing we do for them and surprise us constantly with greater kindnesses than we can ever show them. They are awfully good and gentle and thoughtful around us, in spite of the strain they are under out here in the trenches. The other night during a heavy bar rage from both sides, when shells were breaking on the edge of our woods, a doughboy stood under out window to reassure us if we became alarmed. We did not learn of it until morning when he asked us if we had been scared. 1 said, "Why, no; you didn't hear us make a sound, did you?" He Was On Guard. "No," he responded, "You didn't say a word for two hours, but 1 stayed there because 1 knew you couldn't be asleep and must be frightened. If anything had happened, I might have helped you." At the time of fhe bombardment of our kitchen in the Siecheprey battle, when 1 was picking up a few things in the hut preparatory to our enforced departure by the general's orders, the shells were bursting on all sides with in a few yards. A camourfleur who had been very good to us came in to help me. and as the shells burst he said in such a quiet voice, "I think we had better stand against this wall for a few min utes.

7S cent4 TELEPHONES: SeM. East HI. Ktntoch St. Ciair W JOURNAL PRINT Wednesday Evening, Juty 17, 1918. 0C7E REEV/CE FLAG Corpora! Roy A!bert*on Sergeant Edwin Popkeaa Lttutenmt Frtd S. WHtbMf Private John Schwerdtfeger Private Jamta C Carr Waggoner Herman Crouch Radio Operator Emmet Lenta MEANING OF WATERWAY TRANSPORTATION. The Government's plan to operate barges on the Lower Miss issippi, between St. Louis and New Orleans, must not be looked upon in the light of being exclusively a local enterprise, of interest and value solely to St. Louis. Nor should it be regarded a direct attack on the railroads. Furthermore, its prospects are not limit ed to the Father of Waters, but radiate over the Illinois, Missouri and other navigable streams. East St. Louis is deeply interested in the project, as is every city in the centra! part of the United States. At the present time, under existing conditions, it is possible for New York to ship freight into the Southeast, the West and the Far West by boat, or by boat and rail, cheaper than St. Louis, Chicago and other cen ters. much nearer to destinations, can. If the operation of the barges does nothing more than to equalize these conditions, it will be worth any price the Government pays and worth every effort the shippers make. 'The manufacturers and jobbers must regard this project of the Government's in a most serious manner. They have been ad vocating the revival of waterway transportation for years, and now the Government is coming to their relief with a plan which contains all the element of success. It may be presumed that the Goveinment will make a success of the construction and oper ation of the barges, but the imperative fact remains that it is the shippers who must make a success of the service. If waterway transportation fails now, it probably will fail forever. Shippers, from a selfish standpoint, must ship all the freight they can by water. It is within their power to carry the scheme through to a big success, or to let it be a complete failure. The first requisite is for the shippers to give the barges traffic in both di rections. Next, the cities on the river must provide adequate and satis factory shore terminals. Facilities must be furnished for hand ling freight economically and expeditiously. Finally, co-ordination must be effected between the raihoads and the barges. Regarding the terminals, the Daily Journal is advised that President Edmund Goedde. of the Chamber of Commerce, who has manifested keen interest in waterway transportat:on, already has taken steps to secure terminals for East St. Louis and to assure the identification of East St. Louis with the Government's plans. He is to be congratulated for acting promptly and wisely. It should be stated, too, that East St. Louis already has what is probably the largest and best river-and-rail layout on the water way in the Fox terminals, east of Cahokia, East St. Louis right now can take care of the Government's barges to the best advan tage. These terminals are complete, in that they consist of elec trically equipped docks, connecting with an ideal belt line, and with an operating barge line in actual service. The Government's barges may also be handled at the Missouri river docks, south of the Eads Bridge. However, East St. Louis must be conspicuous in the move ment, and must be prepared to meet every contingency. It is well, therefore, that Mr. Goedde is alert and busy. HAIL TO BRUCE CAMPBELL. East St. Louis is proud of Bruce CampbeH. and the whole mass of the citizens join in whole heart with his Brother Eiks in giving him an enthusiastic welcome home, laden with well deserved honor. Mr. CampbeH is the type of citizen who rejects respect and confidence on a community. He combines the two rarest of qual ities, integrity of character and magnetism of personality. He is both dignified and agreeable; he is both esteemed and liked. Mr. Campbell's election to the highest rank within the gift of the Elks is a personal tribute, and his office, as the leader of a vast army of men banded for the advancement of brotherhood and charity, is a great and noble office. But it may be said, without minimizing the loftiness of the position, that Mr. Campbell is worthy of it and fully capable of filling it to the best credit and good of the order. Mr. Campbell stands for the most exalted ethics and ideals of citizenship. He is always for the right, and has the courage to contend for it against any odds or opposition. In his profession and in public affairs he has lived up to Mg'principles in a way to add always to the luster of his reputation. The honor conferred by the Elks on Mr. Campbell will adver tise East St. Louis advantageously, and we might feel a selfish satisfaction in it. However, it is not for this that he is being wel comed home tonight with special ceremony and commendation. The cordial reception is but an outward expression of East St. Louis as a whole to Mr. CampbeH himself, a demonstration of the high regard which he has merited by his deeds. ECONOMY OF FUEL. Scientific authorities haw long been telling us that enormous quantities of fuel are wasted in the production of steam power. One authority states that 35 per cent of the combustion of coal could be saved by installing mechanical stokers that feed the coal evenly to the Are. The traditions of American jlife are contrary to much interfer ence with the individual. If a manufacturer was burning 35 per cent more fuel than he needs, we have iooked at it that that was his own affair exclusively. If he was fool enough to throw away the money we have said that it was his own business and no one should interfere.' But now we see what fatal consequences may come from such wastes. Last winter many of our factories had to stop because of lack of coal. Enormous quantities of com spoiled in store houses, because the railroads were so congested by lack of fuel that the com could not be transported to the mill. The time has come when we must stop these wastes. The man who bums coal needlessly because he has an unsuitable boiler, must be informed that he is depleting the common stock, which is contrary to public policy. These are matters in which the government and the business community will have to co-operate to secure more economical use of our resources. Fuel economy must be studied, and necessary appliances provided so that our limited stock of fuel shall be made to go as far as possible. .State Capita/ /Vea^s By Daily Journal Correapoodemt Drafting of men Into the national armtes and enilatment of others in the :mvy has made it impossible for Mat toon to maintain a regulation strength {company in the Illinois National Guard, I according to announcement made to day by Col.

On i August 5 also, 1.000 white men are to entrain for Jefferson Barracks for general military service. For all of these calis registrants or June. 1918, may volunteer, but they cannot be inducted for the service. John L. Pickering, internal revenue collector for this district, believes that a record has been established by the iocai office in promptness and efficiency of collections for the last) year. Income and excess profits. amounted to $10,097.658.98, while the aggregate sum reached $18,694,619.80.1 According to records of the district; office there were 60.000 taxpayers,: and ait but 116 were prompt in send-j ing tax to the federai officials. The amount due from, these persons was very small. Mr. Pickering stated that work of the office during the tast fiscal year was heavy, but that the showing made would probably exceed that of any other district In regard to per centage of collections and prompt ness. In connection with the National Encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic to be held In Portland, Captain John B. Inman has received the following from the regional direc tor of the United States railroad ad ministration In Chicago: take pleasure ltf advising you that it '-as been decided that the sur charge for occupancy of sleeping cars will not apply to the members of the' Grand Army of the Republic desiring to attend the Portiand Encampment.! and that the total charge for railroad i transportation will be one cent a miie."

BALLrBEARING LAWN MOWERS. HAUSS HARDWARE CO. Shoveling Out Gas. Weighing considerably more than the atmosphere, the poisonous gases employed in modem warfare always seek lower levels. Thus the gns clouds penetrate trenches and deep dugouts, and in most cases it is a matter of many hours before they become suffi ciently diluted with the atmosphere to permit of safe breathing. So the mat ter resolves itself Into a probietn of driving the poisonous fumes out of the trenches and underground shelters, or ft ieast thinning them out until the air is again made safe. Per this reason American soldiers now in France iiteraiiy "shovel" poi sonous fumes out of their trenches. Attached to a shove! is a sort of can vas troop or "dapper" which permits the men to heave the heavy gases over the perapets and heat the fumes and dissipate them in the surrounding air.—Scientific American.

The Spirit of the Eive K you have read Maeter inch's "The Life of the Bee" you know "The Spirit of the Hive"—the spirit of working together—co-operation. The "Spirit of the Hive" is the spirit that East St. Louis must have to grow as it should. East St. Louis is fast becoming the "bee hive" of industry and the spirit of co-operation is growing—yet there are some who join in the shouting—who cry "Buy in East St. Louis" and then quietly sidestep and fol low their old practice of ordering goods by mail or going to distant cities for things they could buy m East St. Louis. "BUY IN EAST ST. LOUIS" movement is to help East St. Louis, there must be no more lip-loyalty and much more of the sincere, earnest "THIS MEANS ME spirit. The idea or policy of preaching without practicing tends to prejudice every movement—lessens every wave of progress. Instead of the cry "THIS MEANS YOU," let the real boosters say: "THIS MEANS ME/'and then act accordingly. Then helping East St. Louis will not be an idle thought without form and void, but a spirit that will bear fruitful results. Buying in East St. Louis is just as profitable, just as advantageous and much more satisfactory than buy ing in distant markets. East St. Louis merchants offer equal goods, equal values, equal variety and better service. "BUY IN EAST ST. LOUIS" because you make your living here, because it is your home, because your prosperity is dependent upon the general prosperity of East St. Louis, because wherever you live m the East St. Louis district, the city of East St. Louis is your metropolis, your market place.

London, Juiy 17 —One of the chief causes in the iack of success in the Germans' fifth and most ambttious drive this year is the great improve ment in the aiiied intelligence work since the previous enemy eJort. This is due largeiy to our steadiiy growing aerial superiority, which renders even partia! surprise at this time impos sible. Xot only was the general locality, but aimost the exact frontage of the prospective attack iong known,, en ablmg the most effective counter prep arations, among which was the mass ing of sufficient reserves without de nuding the tines to the north. in these preparations the extent of the American participation cannot now be entirely revealed. Even if the present offensive is merely checked, instead of definitely heid, it must so far be considered an inglorious defeat inasmuch as despite the lengthiest and most elaborate preparations none of the German ob jectives has been achieved. The net result has been only Iso lated penetrations on comparatively lightly held front positions without even denting the main battle line, and this at the heaviest cost. The eariy supposition that this drive was probably a "side show" now seems trroneous. British and French mili tary authorities generailv agree that developments show the German con centration on both sides of Rheims was too great to aiiow effective op erations anywhere else until later. Renta! Increases May Cause Action Against Landlords (Continued from Page One.) where they were unable to obtain homes at reasonable rentals. It has been hard to make the aver age resident of any city realize the necessity of iaying in next winter's supply of coal this summer, the Dis trict Attorney said, in declaring that some of this work has been nullified by the action of the landlords. With the coal once stored it would be a gi gantic task to move it, so there was nothing to do but submit. Results of the investigation which now is being made will be submitted to the authorities at Washington, Karch declared, and there probably will be referred to the Fuel Adminis tration. It is not definitely known at this time what steps will be taken, but it is certain that a remedy will be demanded by the government. Needa Trained Muscles. The capacity to exert will power, to make firm resolutions, to decide and to Judge propositions accurately on their merits calls for well-cultivated and trafned muscles.

The theme of this story, which is known to miittons of readers, deais with heredity anti offers a subject of deep study to ai) who are interested therein. Tite photopiay shows how a heautifui young woman who has an in herited desire for drink from a dissi pated ancestor, reciaims herself nnd casts off iter chains, in this character heautifui Miss Ferguson is said to bo superb. The turning of this picture at Jack sonviiie, Fia.. attracted much attention on the part of the society foik there. Arrangements were made by Director Hugh Ford to use the heautifui Mason estate in South .fncksonviiie. Staged amidst eiaitorate settings of modem society, the story gives Miss Ferguson particular opportunity to present for the first time her newest coiiection of gowns, which are expected to attract considerable interest among the femi nine [notion picture patrons. Pastime in Waies. Knitting was at one time a favorite pastime among mate farm workers ia Waies. Fifty years ago shepherd boys in Cardiganshire were suppiied with sufficient woo! to provide them seives with two pairs of stockings. Sixpence per pair was paid for stock ings in excess of this number. Terms of Governors. There is no approach to uniformity !n the terms of the governors of dif ferent states of the Union. The gov ernors of two states are elected for one year; those of twenty-one states for two years; the governor of New Jersey for three years, and those of twenty-four states for four years.

This morning the "Canning School" for the children's thrift garden prod ucts opened at the Rosemont Baptist Mission, N. 49th street, with Mrs. J. E. Craddock teacher of the Cold Pack method of canning. Young patriots are the pupils this time, girls from 13 to 15 years, and the eager way they listened and grasped the simplicity of the Cold Pa^ method speaks well for future food conservation. Twelve teams have been organized in different parts of the city and great rivalry has begun between them. Demonstrations of this new method of canning will be given to all the teams by Mrs Craddock and the team wtnch has the best results from their gar dens and their canning will have a trip to the State Fair at Springfield. The members of the winning team also are to be teachers of new teams which will be formed. These young farmerettes" and fu ture good housewives say that this is the most interesting school they ever attended. Tomorrow the lesson will be given to the team at the Slavonic settle ment. These "Americansin-themak ing" are tine gardeners and as they are going to have the best of material to can. their enthusiasm to learn the new method is unbounded. PRIVATE FISCHER KILLED JUNE 13 The birthday of Private Herman E. Fischer, with the Marines in France, was celebrated by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Fischer of O'Fallon, HI., Juiy 13th. two days before they re ceived the telegram from the War De partment teiling of his death. The message was signed by Gen. George Barnett and said: "Your son nobiy gave his life for his country." Fischer was kiiied June 15 and would have been 31 years old on July 13. He was formerly a printer In O'Fal lon and enlisted May 20, 1917, was trained at Paris Island, S. C., and ar rived over seas December 30th. On Saturday Mr. and Mrs. Fiscehr pre pared a birthday dinner and draped their son's vacant chair with the American dag and wrote him birthday letters. As he has been in the thick of the fighting for some months past, according to his letters, his parents expected to hear shortly that he had been sent to a rest camp. Instead, the message came from the War Depart ment stating that he had been killed inaction. Detecting Malingerers.

LOUIS, ILL. 322Eai;Broa<huay EQUIPPED TO HANDLE BIG RIVER BUSINESS .Secretary F! n n y At tends F r s t Confer ences to Foom F:oer r raf&c. J. N. Fining of the Chamber of^ Commerce yesterday attended the first conferences in St. Louis to make prep arations for the use of the Mississippi river as a freight carrier as provided by recent government ruiing. Presi- j dent Edmund Goedde, of the Chamber of Commerce, has been an ardent sup-; porter of the measure since it incep- j tion and with the Waterways Com mittee of the Chamber, is urging the earliest use possible. More than any other city on the Mississippi river, East St. Louis is equipped to care for immediate transportation necessities and will profit industrially by the movement. It is believed that for some time, until the government barges can be constructed and suitable docking fa cilities provided for, that the river business will be hauled by private concerns. The Aluminum Ore Co., which operates extensive bauxite in dustries in Arkansas, bringing their products here via of a private barge line, is already equipped to handle an enormous barge traffic. Their exten sive docks, equipped with electrical unloading and loading devices capable of handling 1,000 tons of freight per day are perhaps the largest of any in land port in the world. The docks have a frontage of 700 feet, are locat ed west of Cahokia, and includes a coal tipple, adjustable to river stages for direct loading of coal from railroad cars to barges. A warehouse with a capacity of 1,000 tons of freight is now under construction. This system, known as the Fox Terminals, has di rect connection with the Alton Southern Belt Line which in turn has a connection with every road entering the city. These facilities were explained by Mr. Fining to Regional Officials in St Louis yesterday and promise to make East St. Louis one of the principal points of shipment on the river. The big problem before the Railroad Commission in making a connection between boat and rail lines is the suit able location and early construction of terminals. Mr. Fining said yesterday that it probably meant the building of a system of elevators, docks and depots here. 703 rt/EERCt/EAR CASES TEE A FED Visiting iVurses Afa&e Tofai of 7775 Visits for MonfE of June. One Hundred and three cases in 19 families in East St. Louis are under supervision of the St. Clair County Visiting Nurses Association, accord ing to the June report given by Mrs. Kiel, R. N., Superintendent, at the meeting of the Board of Directors of the society yesterday. In the last month 1175 visits were made by the nurses of the organization, 967 for the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., 71 for the general public, 30 of which were charity cases; Swift Co. have a record of 54 visits and the Tuber culosis Society, 83. The diagnosis of these cases are many and varied. Diphtheria—2, Oti tis—1, Maternity—57, Rheumatism— 11, Post Operative—5, La Grippe—13, Salpingitis—7, Pneumonia—5, Insan ity—2, Undiagnosed—42, Whooping cough—3, Accident—20, Entertis—3, Peritonitis—1, Appendicitis—3, Fur uncle—3, Malaria—16—Bronchitis 4, Ovaritis—8, Gastritis—10—Pul. Tuberculosis—7, Bums—2, Typhoid— 3, Gallstones—2, Cholera-Infantum— 1. The Belleville branch of the County Association has been in operation since the middle of June, with Mrs. Ida Francis as the nurse in attend ance. The representatives in the Tri Cities sent good reports. Mrs. H. H. Berry, chairman, presided at the meet ing. With the scarcity of physicians and nurses at present, because of the great demand for them in war serv ice, the government has asked the peo ple to co-operate with the Community or Visiting Nurse, who have been ex empted from war work, thus sparing private nurses. Mrs. Willis J. Smith, County Chair- man of the Child Welfare Committee in the Woman's Council of Defense, i announced that plans were under way for the census of babies which is to be taken in conjunction with the woman's registration sometime in September. "Baby Week" will be held just before the census begins, to arouse interest in the campaign. Sta tions for weighing, measuring and testing of babies will be established in different wards of the city. The rooms of the Visiting Nurses Association will be used as headquarters during the campaign. The Angry Tree. In Australia there grows a speclea bi acacta commonly called the angry tree."

A group of Uncie Sam's army engi neers received an uneipeeted lesson in engineering at Bronr park. They teamed in the spare of one honr how to repair n broken dam and prevent a disastrous Hood. Their Instructors were nine beavers, who were romping in the wa^er of the pond. Above them was a dam 2d0 feet iong and several feet hi?!). Suddenly came a rush of water. The swoiien stream broke into a torrent. Did man Beaver ap peaied to ids offspring and the eight sprang after hint. They seized pieces of tint! or. earth, rocks nnd sod.

To be ciean shaven or bearded iika the pnrd is the alternative presented to the German Orst-iine troops. The reason is the gas mask. Some au thorities hoid that the mask cannot be retied upon to protect any but clean shaven faces; others again hold that a dense hirsute growth within the mask acts as an additional air Hiter.

The fighting is particuiariy vioient south of the Marne (where Americans. after ciearing their own sector of the Germans, are aiding the French to their right.) Other battiea are proceeding be tween the Marne and Rheims and east of Rheims. At no point have the Ger mans made any considerable gains. (By United Press.) With the French Armies in the Fieid, July 17.—German prisoners taken in the Champagne fighting are fatigued and discouraged at the faii jure of their new drive. Some biame their officers for lack of success. The commander of one hattaiion. a former profeasor, harrangued his sub aitems and under officers of the army, declaring they remained safe in the rear and sent the citizen officers to (their death, according to the prison ers. i BULLETIN.

Allied airmen have cieariy maintained their superi j ority. j Bombing planed (lew over the bat tlefield in great numbers. One group consisted of more than a hundred tna chines. Fighting planes ceaselessly poured I machine-gun fire into masses of Ger j mans. One squadron blocked the most important bridge over the Marne for j fifteen minutes, not a single boche le ing able to pass. This aerial activity continues, de spite the fact that low hanging clouds make dying didicult. /fcr/:ans Harass /?efreaf!ng' ^asfWans Rome, July 17.—Italian cavalry con tinues to harass the Austrians in Al bania, it was reported in dispatches from Italian headquarters today. A small Tillage near the coast was en tirely cleared of the enemy by cavalry squadron operating alone. A number Of prisoners were taken and great quantities of material captured. The southern edge of the town was defended by machine guns and a few Held guns. CaTalry rushed the guns, capturing all of them, although many of the Italians had to light on foot after thetr horses had been shot. The cavalry men pushed on Into the town. There they all dismounted and fought from house to house, the Aus trians using machine guns and gren ades. The whole staff of the Italian squadron was killed but the others captured the Austrian commander and his staff. The remnants of the enemy fled northward, leaving the streets littered with dead and wound ed. An entire trainload of baggage was captured and a number of prisoners taken. Among the latter were four Viennese cafe waitresses who were in cluded in the retinue of the Austrian staK.

RUBBER OARDEK HOSE. HAUSS HARDWARE CO. SEA R!SK FOR ARMY !S SMALL infinite Care and Secrecy Attend Transport of Troops to France. MOST IMPS ARE UNEVENIHit Eiementa of Danger Are Anticipated and Reduced to Minimum—No Uni form on Deck Seen When Ship Leaves Harbor. London.—No greater care and se crecy couid attend the shipment oi royal jewels than is observed in ship ping American troops to France. To safeguard his boys Uncie Sam takes every possibie precaution, from the time they embark untii the transport has reached its destination. He ienvos no ioophoie for the machinations of enemy agents. Usuaiiy, as a resuit of this elaborate protective system, the trip from "An Atlantic port" to tin- French or Eng lish port, as the case may be. is re-! markably uneventfu). Aii eiements oi danger have been so carefully antici pated that the risk is reduced to the iotvest minimum. Untii the tmops and civilian pas-! aengers have reached the pier they do not knew the name of their ship. It is only a number to them. On the regu lar troopships it is ditlicuit for a ci vliinn. uniess he is engnged in wat work, to secure a passage. Those who manage to do so are subjected to close scrutiny, and tbeir credentials and tug gage arc thoroughly examined. Embarkation Begins Eariy. Embarkation often begins several days before the transport sails. Ail good-bys have been said before the troops start for tho ship. X'o relative or friend may accompany them to the pier. This rule applies to the officers, as weii as to tho men. Once aboard, there they remain, no shore communication being permitted. This reguiation imposes ro hardship other than inactivity. Untit aii troops have been assigned to quarters and or ganization has been effected, the men are ieft pretty much to their own de vices. No restriction Is placed on writing, and bags are kept open for soldiers* mail up to almost the hour of sailing., This priviiege gives many a chance to get off negiected tetters and postcards, although these, as a matter of precau tittn, are not put into the matis untii the ship has passed through the sub mar! ne zone. The troops aiso take advantage oi an arrangement devised by the gov ernment for the sending of "sofe-arri-, va!" messnges. Telegrams or post cards advising famiiy and friends that the writer had made the trip in safety may be prepared in advance and ief) in charge of the authorities at the port af sailing. As soon as word Is re ceived by cable of the ship's arrivat on the other side, the teiegrems an# cards are released to the wires and maiis. Not oniy is much time saved by this pian, but the soldiers are spared the high cost of cabling from Europe. With the exception of the ship's ex ecutives and the otDcers in military command, no one aboard knows the hour tiled for saiiing. and this be comes a favorite topic for specuiatioc among tbc men. But Hnniiy the last soldier has come up the gnng plank and the last piece of freight has been stowed away. A busy lit'le tug ap- j pears alongside and begins to nose the j vessel like a terrier investigating a, greyhound. 6oldiers Ordered Below. Suddenly there is a blent from tba ship's whistle, and then are enacted a few (Mails of the fnmlllar scene which before the war was witnessed whenever a transatlantic liner left Its pier. The comparison, however, is extremely limited. The call of "All ashore that are going ashore" affects only a few stevedores and perhaps an otHcla! or two, who move leisurely oft What excitement there Is Is confined to those on the ship. There Is none on the pier for the reason that It Is now empty and Its great doors are closed Only a blank wall looms there. On deck the movement, instead of being toward the transport's rails, l! away from them. Orders have been giv en for the troops to go to their quar ters. so that when the ship Is leaving harbor no uniform may he visible M any prying eyes on shore. Slowly the hlg vessel Is coaxed ht the tug Into the stream, and majesti cally she gets under way. A few cl. t vlllan passengers, to the envy of ofH cers and men. hang over the rails and watch the city's skyline fade away. Soon the port Is only a blur In a veil of mist. It Is safe now for tht troops to appear. They rush out on deck, boyishly eager for the sight strange to many—of the open sea. A glance Is cast toward the vague lint on the horizon that Is home. Then they turn and peer forward Into the mystery of the unknown, toward tha scene of the great adventure—ovet there. Who Knows. Mankind Is proud of the heellke In genuity and accuracy with which It pursues many of its aettvitiea; but we cannot be sure that the main result of our labor is not something as remote and unsuspected by ourselves as lta service to the spring flowers Is by tha bee.
