Five hundred Ger man prisoners were taken In the early hours of the fighting. Late this afternoon the 'Germans hurried up two new divisions and threw them in for a counterattack along the Fontalne-Bourlon wood line. The fighting which followed in Fontaine was even more bitter, if possible, than that which occur red in the first rush through the ruined hamlet. At latest reports su perior numbers of enemy infantry had pushed the British back through the village dgain to the western and northwestern outskirts. t>ut the bat tle still continued with unabated fury. Enemy Determined In the meantime the British line running Bourlon wood to the north west was sustaining a heavy assault. The enemy appeared to be deter mined to regain this important po sition if it were humanely possible. The whole front from Fontaine to Bourlon village was the scene of | fierce lighting which at many places was at close quarters. The British' j line about Bourlon wood is still in tact. The* attack on Fontaine Notre I Dame was begun with the assistance Jof a very heavy artillery barrage, j and throughout the morning thei I British gunners maintained an in ] tense fire against the German po i .sitions there. The inrushing infantry I drove an entering wedge into the northwestern part of the village in a short time, but they were held up here by a terrific rifle and machine gun fire to which they were sub jected from every point of vantage. Conditions were favorable to the Germans for they were fighting on the defensive in well-prepared po sitions which could only be taken by storm. Every machine gun was equivalent to several hundred r:"es. British Continue Fight Despite the disadvantages the Brit ish continued the onslaught. It was a glorious exhibition of bulldog cour age. They surged on and in less than three hours had pushed the hard hitting Germans back to the eastern side of the village, leaving enemy dead strewing the streets. As the British fought forward and surrounded the various buildings containing enemy machine gunners, many Germans were compelled to surrender to save their lives. By the time the eastern side of the village was reached 500 captives had been collected and sent back to swell the great total of prisoners taken since General Byng struck his telling blow last Tuesday. Reinforcements Arrive The arrival of a large body of Ger man reinforcements put a different complexion on the situation. These fresh troops immediately counter attacked and the lighting through the streets of Fontaine took on re newed vigor. The western outskirts of the village were reached and here, according to latest reports, the battle continued. Interesting facts were made known to-day concerning the famous tun nel trench which the British now hold in its entirely northwest of Bullecourt. Part of this underground fortification was captured in the fighting previous to the Cambrai push, but a large portion was taken last week. The tunnel, which was built by Russian prisoners, was a most amazing piece of work. It was thirteen miles long and forty feet deep. Entrances were driven into it every thirty-five yards and the Germans lighted the entire place with electricity. The tunnel was mined at Intervals throughout Its length but the British quickly discovered the electric wires leading to the mines and they were rendered usoess. FI.I/.ABF.TIIVII.I.K MAKES GOOD I. T. Bufflngton, chairman of the Y. M. C. A. work in Elizabethville, re ported to-day that the borough had contributed $405.50. The amount ill lotted to the Upper End town was $250. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH RAILROAD POOLING BOARD , READY FOR WORK All Railroads to Unite in Breaking Up Traffic Congestions Pittsburgh, Pa., Nov. 28.—Pooling of the equipment, Including trackage, cars, locomotives and employes ot the railroads of the eastern district of the United States, comprising the territory east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio und Potomac riv ers, as agreed upon by the Railroad War Board a few days ago, was to day placed In charge of a committee representing the principal eastern lines. The committee, which Is headed by A. Wi Thompson, vice-president ot the Baltimore and Ohio, and com prised of t'iie operating presidents and vice-presidents of the chief lines of the eastern district, held Its ABB 1 . session here to-day, To Alleviate Congestion Alleviation of the congestion on eastern lines, which is said to be hin dering tiie war activities of the Gov ernment and interfering with bus iness throughout the nation, is the problem before the committee, which is to be known as the Railroad Pool Board. To solve tills problem the committee has been authorized to en force the Joint use by all railroads of the east of tracks, rolling stock and even employes, FUTURE POUCY TO BE SETTLED BY ALLIES [Continued from First Page,] lion to the Bolshevlki is rapidly gaining strength. A conference of anti-Bolsheviki leaders at Russian army headquarters for the purpose of forming a coalition government It Is reported. Among them are Professor Mllukoff, leader of the Constitutional Democrat party and one of the prominent factors in the March revolution; members of the Socialist party and prominent mili tary leaders. Meanwhile General Ivaledines, ITetman of the Don Cossacks, who is reported to control the grain pro ducing territory of Southeastern Russia, is growing In power. Many army officers opposed to the Bol shevlki regime have Joined his forces, 'ncluding members from the front. Government employes in Petrograd Jiave refused to recognize the Bolshevik! and have been dis missed from office. As the British press toward Cam brai from the west they encounter I more stubborn German resistance. [ Heavy lighting is in progress around I Fontaine Notre Dame, less than three j miles from Cambrai, and near the village of Bourlon, about one mile northwest of Fontaine. Both these villages were occupied by the British last week, only to be lost in the face of strong German counterattacks. General Byng's men, however, are making progress against the strong ly reinforced enemy from whom more than 500 prisoners were captured Tuesday. Undismayed apparently by the losses sustained in their fruitless ef forts of the past two weeks to break the Italian line between the Brenta and the Piave valleys, the Austro- Germans continue to hurl fresh troops against the defenders of the passes to the Venetian plains. The latest attempt was against the left wing along the Brenta Valley. An entire division was used in an at tempt to break the Italian defenses. It attacked five times in massed for mation, but was unable to break the defense of the Italians. Fear of a German threat that she would seize a base in Denmari: should Norway permit the allies to obtain a base in her territory, is re ported to be behind the conference of the three Scandinavian kings in I Christiania. From Copenhagen two weeks ago it was reported the rulers of Norway, Sweden and Denmark, with their premiers and foreign min isters, would meet in the Norwegian capital on November 28. It is now disclosed that hostility to Germany in Norway has reached such a stage that Germany believed Norway was about to give aid to the allies and to counteract such a possibility in formed Denmark that if such a step was taken, Germany would occupy Denmark as a countermeasure. This is said to have brought the recent conference between the kings ot Sweden , and Denmark as well as th? present meeting.

CUTTING TRAINS DIFFICULT TASK President Rea of Opinion That Government Should Help; Rest Traffic Year In answer to inquiries ns to whether the Pennsylvania Company contemplated radical reductions in passenger service, or what the situa tion was in this respect. President Samuel Rea replied! "Less passenger train service on the eastern railroads, and especially on the Pennsylvania system, would be very desirable, but, until the situ ation develops further, and some limitations Is placed on the traffic as a war measure, it will be difficult to accomplish. The company has about the largest passenger traffic of any railroad Ui the country. Host Traffic Year "The year 191 ti was the heaviest traffic year in Its history. The pas senger revenue for the first nine months of lit 17 has increased IS per cent, over 11)16, while later returns show that It is increasing at the rate of 30 per cent, over similar months of 191(1, "Any traveler on this system can see for himself on day and night trains the extraordinary increase in the passenger travel, including the heavy family travel to and from camps and to and from Washington on government business. 1 doubt whether slower and longer trains' of coaches carrying full loads would re duce the number of cars and trains or materially relieve the tracks and terminals. Therefore, at this time 1 can see no other course than to continue meeting the abnormal de mand for passenger transportation to the best of our ability." Railroad Notes There will be no general holiday shutdown to-morrow on the railroads. Both the Pennsy and Heading will keep their freight moving. Shops will close only where it is practicable. Plans are under way to get records of coal consumption on all runs on the main line of the Pennsy. Employes of the Baltimore Division of the Pennsylvania Railroad were paid yesterday. Brakeman Samuel D. Davis, who was thrown from a car at Rutherford, is improving at the Harrisburg Hos pital. The Reading Railway Co. has grant ed the operators on the system, in cluding those of the Philadelphia, Heading and Pottsvllle Telegraph Co., an increase In wages of slightly over li per cent., effective Friday, Novem ber 16. A fast freight train on the Lacka wanna ran away on the Pocono Mountains and came down at a speed of eighty miles an hour. The train started on its Might near Cresco and all attempts to check its speed were of no avail. The brake shoes were melted off the engine, and the tire was torn off the driver of the en gine. The train was brought to a stop at East Stroudsburg. Christian H. Hershey Dies at Gordonville, Aged 85 Gordonville, Pa., Nov. 2 B.—Chris tian H.
