violent aggresive that has so far
been seen. These severe attacks
were mostly on the difficult region
between Vaux and Damloups where
the massed attacks resulted in a
slaughter unparallelled in tho histo
ry of war. Entire regiments were
wiped out and the ground is black
with dead.
The Germans conducted a violent
artillery bombardment about Doua
mont where they have made repeat
ed unsuccessful att&cKs.
The Germans on Saturday made
some gains around Fort Vaux but
the terrific - fire to which their
occupancy of these made them sub
ject caused an evacuation. The Ger
mans have since then been trying
to capture the Vaux redoubts wits
no success but losses of an enorm
ous amount.
The fighting is being conducted
with a total disregard to human
life.

GREAT STRIKE LONGSOREMEN
F0LL8WED RY FRISCO FIRE
SEATTLE, June 5.—The dockers
strike still proceeds. The Mayor has
placed special guards along the
water front because members ot
strike breakers’ gangs were re
ported to have been roughly man
handled. There are very few strike
breakers however.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 4.— The
first defection from the Merchants
and Manufacturers ranks in grant
ing the demands of the longshore
mi n is tlie Japanese Foy Kaisei..
Kaisha who have granted the de
mands of the men in spite of the
threats and opposition of the shipp
ing ring.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 5.—Fol
lowing the discharging of the cargo
of a Foy Kalsen Kaisha liner today
by union men in this port, the docks
and cargo were set fire to by some
person.
The Unionists claim that this Is
in fulfilment of the threat against
the Japanese company if they con
ceded the demands. The fire is stitt
blazing and it is estimated that the
dock and cargo are likely to be.
destroyed. The total value ot the
cargo and dock is estimated at
$800,000 and there is little hope ot
saying much of this.
SEATTLE, June 5.—The first de
fection here from the dock and
shipping ring is the Municipal
docks which have conceded all the
demands of the longshoremen.
CORRESPONDENT WRITES OF
LAROR AND PROHIBITION
FRANK SCHLEISS .son • e
Seattle, April 12, 1916.
Certain it is that towns west are
doing all in their power to discredit
the prohibition law, and this whole
sale violation of it may be a step
in that direction. Seattle and most
of the territory west of the Cascades
voted against the prohibition
amendment. It was the east side,
the so-called “cow-country” that
placed the state in the dry column.
Some are inclined to think by vir
tue of this fact the wet interests
are still predominant In this town,
and no serious attempt will be made
by the city officials to drive tli6
bootleggers to the wall. Three of
this opinion believe that the policy
that will eventually be adopted will
be one calculated to curb them by
occasional arrests and fines, the ag
gregate of which will about equal
the saloon licence paid in the wet
days.
The record made in the first few j
months under the dry law could not
help but cause a man to look opti
mistically at the result achieved. The
great decrease in the number ot
drunks, the noticeable decrease In
arrests on minor charges, all very
favorable omens. Things look dark
er now, and unless the city and
county administrations co-operate in
an energetic campaign of suppres
sion, the bootleggers will do much
to nullify the law.
The Mexican invasion is generally
met with Indifference. One looks
in vain for that general air of Sup
pressed excitomcnt so noticeable at
the time of Spanish-American war.
There is no rush being made for the
recruiting offices. Thero is no rabid
