SEVEN COUNTER ATT CKS REPULSED
.:
British Imprgye New Positions Captured in Flanders and Take
1,614 Prisoners.
A, despatch from British Front in
France and Belgium, says:—TheBrit-
ish on Thurs
day continued to strength-
en the line to which they battled their
way on Wednesday, The Australians
completed "their conquest of the Ger-
man positions at the eastern extremity
•of Pol3ron Wood, Two places secured
here represented the only remaining
troublesome points along the Anzac
front, which reaches northward to the
east of Polygon Wood.
There has been much hard -fighting
in this section, "but on Thursday the
weary Germans apparently withdrew
to more favorableground further back
and the Australians pushedforward:
To the south of that. point the Ger-
mans continile to hammer away with
their artillery at the. British defences
a stride the Menin 'road. and make
threats of an infantry assault. The
neighborhood of Hill 40, north-west
of Zonnebeke, continues -to be hotly
contested ground, with little give or
take on either side.
Consolidations have been'' complet-
ed by the British in a`majority of the
places, the Anzacs having finished this
- work. •
The report from Field Marshal
Haig on Thursday night refers only
briefly to the operations of Thursday
in Flanders. On the previous day
seven powerful hostile counter-at-
tacks, it says, were repulsed with(
heavy losses, and 1,614 Germans weed
taken prisoner,
During 'Wednesday's fighting large
numbers of British aeroplanes aided
the infantrymen, attacking the Ger-
mans from .low altitudes with great
effect. The .German . airmen put up
strong opposition and, as a result the
casualties among the flyers were high.
Fifteen German machines were ac-
counted for, but thirteen of the Bri-
tish planes failed to return to their
base.
On the northern front of the new
offensive, in the region east of . St.
Julien, some interesting German prise
oners were to be found on Thursday.
A number of the prisoner, cages were
filled with ..a nondescript lot of mid-
dle-aged/ men, who looked far from
men of the warrior type. They said
the Germans had used up all of their
1918 class,and that as: the 1919 class
were not ready they were calling up
old men.
USlh
AIRPLANE TO
CARRY
WOUNDED
Remarkable Tests Carrie& Out
'by French' Army- Officials.
A despatch from Paris says: Tests
,made on Saturday at Villa Coublay of
an airplane fitted' with two stretchers
for carrying wonnded proved highly
satisfactory. Dr: Chassaing of the
Army Medical Service and Corporal
Tetu represented wounded passengers
during a . twelere-minute flight, the
equivalent to a fifteen -mile journey.
Corporal Tetu 'declared that this
form of transport was far supeiior to
an ambulance, 61 which he had vivid
recollections when wounded two
years ago. Dr, Chassaing removed a
muffler from his head and unfasten-
ed straps during the flight. He ex-
pressed the opinion that there would
be no unnecessary pain to a wounded
passenger,' because the equilibrium of
the airplane is so perfect. The air-
plane was constructed„ by the Aero-
nautic. Service of the army, which
-hopes to use this form of transport
for the e�everely wounded, declaring
that the absence of any jolting fully
compensated the patient for any risk.
COMPELLED TO WEAR
CHAINS ON HIS, FEET
A despatch from Petrograd says:
The result of the trial of General
Soukhonilinoff proved to be a surprise
to the general public, who foresaw
the acquittal of Madame Soukhomlin-
off and expected that the former War
Minister would be -found not guilty.
The Procurer -General declares ---that
the verdict cannot be quashed on a
technicality, as no higher 'court ex-
ists.
Sou'khomliiioff's sentence, 'life im-
prisonment, carries with- it the se-
verest forme of incarceration, - called
"Katorga." The first ten years the
convict passes through different
stages of punishment, including
chains on the feet, sometimes on the
hands, also, 'affi he may be chained
to a wheel -barrow. The next several
years, "oil reformation,” are spent in.
prison without chains.- Next, "on
probation," until finally the stage is
reacheel where the convict is set ' at
liberty in a village, from which he
must not depart. The several stages
, are shortened by good conduct, and
the convict finally has the chance to
become a free Siberian settler.
MANY PRAIRIE FIRES
IN SASKATCHEWAN.
A despatch from Prince Albert,
Sask., says: Large quantities of hay
have been ' destroyed by prairie fires
in Northern Saskatchewan. The prin-
eipal losses, are in the Star City and
the Tisdale districts. Fires are also
raging in the tenter areas; ,north of
Big River, 'and that town has been
enveloped in'smile 'for several days."
BIG SIPPING PLAN
-UNDER WAY INU.S.
Year's Programme Involves the
Construction of Tonnage
—Aggregating 6,000,000.
A despatch from Washington says:
The magnitude of the American Gov-
ernment's\ shipbuilding programme
was revealed in a statement by the
shipping board, showing that nearly
1,200 merchant • vessels of about 6,-
000,000 tonnage will be `completed
within a little more than a year.
Completion of ships commandeered
in shipyards and of vessels actually
or aboutto be contracted for will
give the country a fleet of 1,600 ships
with a total tonnage of more than
9,000,000. In addition to this, the
board will complete in 1919 vessels
already contracted for, and under ne-
gotiation of about 4,000,000 tons. A
billion dollars has just been asked of
Congress to complete the programme.
The United- States now is leading
the world in shipbuilding, and if the
present- rate of construction were
kept, up, would become the leading
shipping nation of the world in a
few„ years.. r ,

Total Yields of Grain Crops,"1917.
n
The preliminary estimate of this
year's wheat crop in Canada is for a
total of 249,164,700 bushels from 14,
755,800 'acres, an average yield per
acre of 16.88 bushels, as compared
with 17 bushels in 1916 and 29 bush -
Os in 1915. The estimated yield of
wheat in 1916 is 229,313,000 bushels
from 13,448,250 acres, so that the
estimated total for 1917 represents an
increase of 19,851,700 bushels, or 8
