troops have established themselves
solidly In Clerges, despite powerful
German counterattacks.
Cleges lies nearly three miles north
of Montfaucon. where tho American
center battled so stubbornly and suc
cessfully on the second day of the
offensive.
Following a brief artillery bom
bardment the Germans counterat
tacked at 7 o'clock this morning from
the region nor.th of Apremont in an
effort to drive us back in tho Aire
valley.
Troops from Pennsylvania repulsed
the attack, though some fighting was
still in progress, at 10 o'clock.
Attacks Beaten Off
Minor enemy attacks elsewhere
yesterday evening were beaten off.
The enemies' artillery fire every

Railroad Notes
During September the Cumberland
Valley Railroad Relief Association
paid out ?427 sick bonetlts, $823 acci
dent benefits and S3OO death benefit,
William Jaefer, aged 49, of Brook
lyn, X. Y., conductor on the rullman
car Freeman, attached to train No.
27, westbound, waa injured while the
train was running over the Middle di
vision yesterday. Jaofer swerved
under the speed of the train. He -
fell against a berth and sustained a
bad gash above the right eye.
Studies are being made by the
United States railroad administration
I to determine whether the adoption of
an equitable and universal plan for
! the compensation of employes, in case
of death or injury, and old age in
surance is practicable. There are
difficulties in the way arising from
the existence of the present pension
and Insurance plans, but it is ex
pected that they can be overcome.
As a fire prevention precaution, or
ders have been issued by the railroad
administration prohibiting smoking*
in railroad shops, warehouses, store- I
houses, freight houses and offices, in
cluding record rooms and around
freight .platforms, and in all places
where inflammable material is stored.
The list of Pennsylvania employes
retired on penson on July 1, which
has Just been issued, contains the
names of 63 men and one woman.
Seven of them had worked more than
half a century each. The one woman,
Miss Bridget E. Whalen, was tele
graph operator at Collier, W. Va.,
where she had served .without a
break from July 26, 1868. or 26 days
less than half a century. The com
pany's circular includes a portrait
and sketch of Miss Whalen and says
that she was regarded as one of the
country.
TELEGRAPHERS TO GET RAISE
Railroad telegraphers probably will I
receive a wage increase of between j
S2O and $25 a month soon, it was said I
yesterday by Railroad Administration j
officials. The application of the
Order of Railway Telegraphers for |
more than twice this amount of in- j
crease still is pending before the i
Board of Railroad Wages, which is ex
pected to report soon to Director Gen- j
eral McAdoo. The increase to be sug- I
gested will be about equivalent, it is
said, to that recently granted clerks,
maintenance of way men, mechanical
workers and other, classes of em
ployes.
