vance Patrols
BRITISH ARE HELD IN WEST
Jermans Again Gain Possession of
Thiaumont, Being Fourth Time This
Field Work Has Exchanged Hands.
Russian, cavalry patrols have ad-
vanced from Kimpolung, in southern
Bukowina, over the passes of‘the Car-
pathians into Hungary, according to
a’ wireless dispatch received from
Bucharest. .
The patrols made their way over
the passes from Bukowina and down
into Hungary ou Tuesday, it is said.
The raiders blew up buildings centain-
ing stores of food and munitions and
cut telegraph wires. A sensation has
been created in Budapest, the capital
* of Hungary, by the news that the in-
vaders are actually on Hungarian
soil. ;
Russian victories at Kolomea, near
the foothills of the Carpathians in
Galicia, and at Baronovich, 300 miles
further north, are reported in the of-
ficial Russian statement issuea at
Petrograd.
Positions west of Kolomea were
"captured after stubborn fighting and
the enemy fled through the village of
Potok Tcharny, leaving it in the
hands of the Russians. Several hun-
dreds of prisoners and four cannon
were taken during this fighting.
The German official statement
claims that the Russians were forced
back more than five miles on a twelve:
mile front southeast of Tlumach,
twenty-seven miles north of Kolomea
and twenty-three miles southeast of
Buczacz. No mention of fighting In
this region is made in the Russian
communication.
‘Germans Concentrate on British.
Strongly reinforced, the Germans
concentrated their entire strength in
powerful attacks against the British
in an effort not only to bring General
Sir Douglas Haig’s advance to a defi-
' nite standstill but also to drive his
troops out of the positions conquered
in the first days of the new drive.
These efforts were partly successful
in that they made it impossible for
the, British to make any further sub-
stantial gains. All attacks aimed at
recapturing lost ground were, how-
ever, fruitless, according to British
/ Mesdquarter’s statement. *
twenty-four hours’ battle in the
tish, ended in the Germans being
pelled to leave their opponents in
undisputed possession of the town.
French Make Qains.
New gains were made by the French
troops south of the Somme in the new
offensive. The German strategy was
marked by apparent indifference to-
ward the French lines on beth banks
of the river, all the Teuton reinforce-
« ments being concentrated against the
British.
The official communique reported
the capture by the French of the wood
between Assevillers and Barloux and
of the village of Belloy-En-Santerro,
southeast of Assevillers. The French
also took nearly the whole of the vil-
lage of Estrees, the Germans still
holding out in a block of houses, ren-
dering desperate resistance. In this
recion the French took 500 prisoners.
Evidently with a view to extending
their attacks the French sent out re-
co..nc:tering columns against the Ger-
man lines between the Avre and the
Aisne. According to the official re-
port this resulted in a penetration of
the Teuton first line trenches as far
as the supporting trenches northeast
of Beuvraignes and opposite Vingre.
The columns returned to their lines
with prisoners.
The Germans retook the field work
of Thiaumont on the eastern bank of
the Meuse. The French still retain
their footing close to the field works,
positions from which when driven out
of the fortifications on. June 30; they
were able to launch attacks which re-
covered possession of tHe field work.
The successful attack followed a
night of heavy bombardment of the
position during which six’ separate
German attacks, ome of them under
cover of flaming liquids, were sent for-
ward only to break down under the
French fire ‘without making any gain.
This was the ‘fourth’ time, that the
position had changed hands.

CARRANZA NOTE

Chief's Latest Document
REPLY ARRIVES IN CAPITAL
Making No Demands, Carranza Sug-
gests That American Troops Be
Withdrawn From Mexican Soil.
The long expected note from Car-
ranza reached Washinzion Tuesday. It
air.ved at the Mcoxican embassy and
was presented to Secretary of State
Lansing uy illisec Arredondo, the Mex-
ican ambas:ador designate.
In strikiiig contrast to the belliger-
ent tone of previous communications
from Mexico City the new note, ac-
cording to the statements of embassy
officials is decidedly conciliatory and
is characterized by an apparent desire
on the part of the Mexican authorities
to reach an amicable understanding
with the American government.
It concedes, according to members
of the embassy staff, the contention
of ‘the United States that conditions
along the border by reason of the
bandits raids’ have been intolerabla
and extends strong promises on tha
part of the Mexican government to re
store order and protect American ter
ritory from further raids.
Furthermore, it is said, the not¢
does not specifically renew the de
mands for a withdrawal of the Ameri:
can forces, but, contending that the
presence of the troops on Mexjcan® soil
co~tributes to the unsettled conditions
suggests that their withdrawal would
go far toward removing the causes
of friction and difficulty.
Calling attention to the fact that the
Carranza government has accepted
the principle of mediation as suggested
by friendly, powers, it invites a like

It is explained at the embassy that
the communication is intended to
serve the double purpose of answer
ing the American note of July 25,
which was sent at the time of the
imprisonment of the American troop:
ers. at Chihuahua and demanded 2a
statement of Carranza’s future inten-
tions and likewise of responding of
an immediate withdrawal of the Ame:
ican forces.
At the same time it is said the new
Carranza note does not refer to the
orders issued by General Jacinto
Trevino, the Mexican commander, to
attack any American detachments in
Mexico that attempt to move in any
direction than toward the border, al
though it was concerning the author:
ity for these orders that the Ameri
can note particularly inquired. The
embassy officials, in seeking to explain
the conciliatory character of the com:
munication, expressed the opinion
that it was written personally by Gen-
eral Carranza and was inspired to a
certain extent by the favorable im-
pression created in Mexico City by
President Wilson's New York speech
and by the fact that Geleral Persh-
ing’s forces is being gradually with-
drawn toward the border. While of-
