German second line positions north-
west of Bazentin-le-Petit wood have
been captured by the British in a

announced on Tuesday. The positions
captured, in what the statement char
acterizes as “a further important suc-
cess,” extended over a front of 1,500
yards. :
A strongly held position at Water-
lot farm, east of Longueval, also was
captured by the Bri.ish, while the re-
maining strongholds of the Germans
in‘Ovillers and La Boiselle also were

Troops also are being frushed from

result of repeated warnings that
bandits are advancing to the Rio

Texas, :

The story of “Philippine 1903,” meat

officers as “sensational tales.” They
declare no reports have come to

“We are urging hurry orders on the
packers. If soldiers had been injured
by spoiled meat we would have heard

Col. Harry L. Rogers, chief quarter-

said that the army is short on noth-
