He adds that the Germans are still retreating. .-Referring to the fighting east of Chateau-Thierry along the Marne, tho correspondent says that eight German divisions which had reached the south bank of the river, were able to cross the hills which overlooked the Marne, but none who lived to recross will forget the terrible days they spent south of the stream. Tho. ground they held was overlooked everywhere by the French and American artillery observers. Enclosed in a narrow space between the river and the hills, they offered a sure target for the allied artillery. For food and munitions, he says, the Germans were dependent upon the transport service across the Marne bridges, which were not only constantly shelled, but frequently bombarded by French and British afrmen. They were unable to bring any artillery across with the exception of mountain guns and light mine throwers. The casualties of some units amounted to 60 per cent. ^According to the correspondent, the British participated in the battle for the first time yesterday. They entered the lines on the sectors between Reims and the Marne in the region of the Ardrie whero Italians troops had been fighting heavily for some days.

Fully 2000 men are affected by the strike, which is of a general character. No immediate settlement is in sight. The men are asking for a raise of $1 a day all round and their attitude, according to information at local labor headquarters, is very determined. At the head offices of the concern today it was stated that the Granby company pays as high, or higher wages as are received ln the United States or anywhere else in British Columbia for the same service. In the case of common laborers, their wage of $4.75 for eight hours work is higher than anywhere else in the province. Notwithstanding this, concerted action was taken on July 15 "by I. W. W.'s and other unpatriotic influences," according to a statement given at the head offices today. The company offered a raise of 25 cents a day to smeltermen and all' underground miners. This was refused and a general strike was called on the 16th. "The whole trouble was caused by the I. W, W.'s and others who are acting in an unpatriotic manner.

These troops did not cross the Marne without hindrance, as the French and American artillery kept up a steady fire upon them. Fired 72 Hours. Ono group of American field battery fired continuously for 72 hours aiming at both banks of thc Marne and at the pontoons erected by the enemy across the river.

ALLIES BRE i TEUTON I (Continued from Page One.) own against German resistance. Tho Germans retreated across thc Marne on Friday under cover of a .great smoke screen. At last accounts great fiordes of Germans were continuing north. Organized resistance has been met with so far only at a few places. Clear Foe from South. The district south of the Marne and east of Chateau-Thierry Is entirely cleared of Germans. Two badly^cut up German regiments were left south of the Marne in tho German retreat. Allied aviators bombed the bridges across the river and their retreat was impossible. All Saturday night the allies hammered away at thc widening gaps as the Germans withdrew across the Marne. Americans continued to take prisoners and ammunition. The heavy arHllery of thc allies continues today tiie clearing of districts north of tho Marne. Indian scouts who wore with Pershing In Mexico played an important part in the scout work along tho river. Take Chateau-Thierry. •WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN FRANCE, July 21.—(Noon)—Chateau- Thierry, the cornerstone ot tho line of tho farthest German advance, fell early this morning, when the French occupied thc city, driving the Germans before them. Tho enemy has begun his retreat northward under heavy pressure from all sides, 'French, American nnd British all participating In ithe thrust, which is pushing thc Germans back. "Where the retreat will end cannot be conjectured, as everything now depends on the will of the allied commander-in-chief. The German position in the vicinity of Chateau-Thierry was doomed from the moment their divisions recrossed the Marne. Encircling Movement, Franco-American forces carried out an encircling movement from the northwest at the same time, which mado It absolutely necessary for tho enemy to withdraw. In the course nf lhe night reconnaissances were effected by the French to test the strength of the Germans still in the city and shortly after the allied reoc- cuphtlon become as accomplished fact. Hun. Fight Bard. LONDON, July 21—The enemy is still fighting very hard, bringing up fresh troops and delivering terrific attacks, but does not seem to be able to hold up the French advance along the line north of Chateau-Thierry, according to advices from* the front. Gorman traffic at Fere-enTardenois is being vigorously and continuously bambarded by our airmen. The situation is considered as being distinctly promising. Tho Germans apparently have to do one of two things—clear the French off the railway west of Fere- on-Tardenols, or bring back their troops from north of the Marno to flatten out the salient. Reach Important Road. Farther north the 'French have reached the high road from Soissons lo Chateau-Thierry near the village of Hartenness-et-Taux^ The nigh road and the railway from Soissons to Chateau-Thierry is well within range of tho French guns along its whole front and is bein gsubjected to artillery fire. • The same applies to tho junction of this road with the only possible alternative lino, which comes from Flsmes and joins it at Nanteull Notore Dame. The lattler place Is also within gun range. , The supply situation, of tho enemy on thc Marno is thus 'becoming moro difficult each hour. British Take Part PARIS, July 21.—That British forces are participating in tho battle along tho Marne front is revealed by tho evoning papers, which, of course, are not allowed to glvo the number engaged, or the details of tho fighting. Tho Temps says: "Between the Marno and Reims tho Germans have also been vigorously attacked by French, British and Italian troops. In splto of tho desperate resistance of the Germans they havo lost ground in tho Airdrlo valley and near Sto. Euphrasie." Run Behind Smoke Screen PARIS, July 21.—The smoke screen with which the Germans attempted to shield their retreat across the Marne, which began south of the Marne, did not deceive the French. A terrific bombardment of shells and a rain of machine gun bullets was conducted on the retiring Germans, who lost half, their effectives,' according to a despatch from tho Havas correspondent on the Marne front, Fi.rc. Fighting Near R.im. I LONDON, July 21.—On the front southwest of Reims, where British forces are engaged, there was much fluctuating fighting yesterday. Some of these gains, however, were lost when the Germans made counterattacks. In the Ardrie valley the British are still holding aome of their gains, including the wood 'line running along the western edge, of the stream. Further to the southwest the Germans hold the line along the Marne from Reuilly to just east of Chateau- Thierry. LONDON, July 21—The French have taken the town of Braztles, one mile east of Chateau-Thierry, on the north bank of the Marnle, according to de- patches received here. The French line Includes the heights north ot Braztles, which gives the French a good bridgehead on the north side of the Marne. West of Reims, where the British were engaged yesterday, the present line leaves the enemy a strip of about four miles deep at the greatest depth on a front of about 13 miles in the Marne valley. That Is all he has to show for the big offensive of July, 15. Enter Chateau-Thierry PABIS, July 21.—French troops entered Chateau-Thierry this morning, according to an official statement Issued by the war office. Violent combats continue north and south of the Ourcq and between the Marne and Reims. In spite of violent resistance by the enemy, the French have continued to advance,.the statement adds. LAKE CAPTAINS Walkout of Lake River Captains and Mates Depends on Commission's Decision. Whether or not the captains on the lake steamers of the Canadian Pacific railway will go out on strike Is now dependent on two questions to be de- cldod by thc royal commission appointed to investigate the dispute between the shipowners and their masters and mates. The commission will sit In tho court house at Vancouver this morning at 10:30.

Elsie Ferguson. Stories of the Orient are usually fascinating and "Rose of the World," the AVtcraft picture which will be shown at the.

Harry English loses his life in a battle with lhe natives. Weird types arc shown among lhe natives and thc atmosphere is surcharged with mysticism. Occultism plays no part in tho plot, however, though in the entertaining story by Agaes and Edgerton Caslle it would seem that nothing short of tho supernatural could remove the difficulties that beset the fair Rosamond and restore her to happiness. Maurice Tourneur, the noted French producer, directed thc play, which is an offering of artistic merit.

Bessie Barriseale IN HER FIRST PARALTA PLAY, WHICH IS CALLED, AND RIGHTLY SO, A MINIATURE "BIRTH OF A NATION" "Madame Who" A PLAY THAT FAIRLY EXUDES MYSTERY—REPLETE WITH EXCITING SITUATIONS TWO-REEL COMEDY "Entirely satisfactory," was the j answer made by Robert J. C. j Stead, acting secretary of the Western Canada Irrigation association, when asked by The Daily News last night as to the outlook for the convention which opens in the assembly hall of the public school on Wednesday at 9:30 a.m. Mr. Stead arrived in the city Saturday night and will remain here until the close of the convention. The reservations which have already been made indicate that the attendance will be well up among the best recorded by the association. The papers in the prairie country have given a great deal of publicity to the Nelson convention, and every mail brings requests for reservations by other intending delegates. Indications are that there will be keen rivalry for the honor of entertaining the convention next year, as at least two Alberta cities are in the competition. The practise has been to hold It one year about on alternate sides of the Rockies. Hon. T. D. Pattullo, minister of lands, Victoria, the president of the association, will call the convention to order Wednesday morning. The program is a very full one, and every effort will be made to carry it out strictly on schedule. The public Is invited to all of the sessions, and is assured of interesting and entertaining addresses, says Mr. Stead. The general committee in charge of the convention will meet in the city hall this evening at 8 o'clock to complete arrangements, F. A. Starkey, president of the local board of control, stated last evening that all citizens of Nelson who were willing to assist in making the convention a success'were asked to attend this meeting. - ; Mrs. M. R. McQuarrie and Mrs. A. L. McCulloch have been chosen to meet the eastern delegates at Kootenay Landing. They will leave for that point tomorrow morning, as It is expected the majority of delegates will arrive on the Crow boat tomorrow evening. The decoration committee are planning to have an evergreen tree' attached to the top of every electric light standards along the main streets. The decoration committee themselves have undertaken to cut and put up the trees. M. R. McQuarrie, chairman of the reception committee, has asked that all those who will allow delegates to visit their gardens to communicate with him.
