It promised to be slightly warmer for the afternoon, With no threat of rain. The weather was less suggestive of a ball game than of Christmas shopping early. Although the New York Nationals and the Chicago Americans were to meet with the series oven, there was a noticeable falling off in the line outside the box windows.

The first man to appear arrived at about 4 this morning, whereas for the first two games scores spent the night waiting admission.

It was not the German guns, however, that stopped the British. It was more than usually heavy rainfall which started during the battle and turned the already swampy region over which the supposed to pass into veritable quagmire from which they could not untrack themselves for a forward move, The drive, as has been customary in Haig's strategy, was started in the early hours of Friday morning and extended from near the Houtholst wood to below the Ypres-Menin road. At several points the British troops succeed-. ed in gaining ground over fronts ranging up to 1,000 yards, but here the rain intervened and the fighting ceased for the day.

During the forward movement over the sixmile front the British captured in the aggregate about 600 prisoners. The struggle was particularly bitter to the north est Poelcappelle and around Passchendaele. In the latter region the Germans, apparently have massed strongest array of troops, hopeful of being able to stays further press forward by the British toward the Ostend -Lille railroad.

DUNCAN HAS FAITH IN RUSSIA Vice-President of American Federation of Labo" Spoke in Barre Last Night GOV. GRAHAM WAS GUEST OF HONOR Former Told of Work Accomplished in Russia by American Commission From the far reaches of the new sian democracy, James Duncan of Quincy, president of the Granite Cutters' International association, vice president of the American Federation of Labor, and lately labor's honored member of the Root commission, brought a message of hope to a large audience in the Barre opera house last evening. "The Soul of Russia" was the subject of Mr. Duncan's address and from first to last he gave his hearers the full benefit of his observations and experiences as member of the commission. For two hours the audience listened carefully to his terse account of developments that transformed Russia from an absolute monarchy to a democratic republic.

The address was given under the auspices of the Central Labor union of Barre and vicinity and in addition to Mr. Duncan, the labor men had as their guests Governor Graham and Commissioner Robert W. Simonds of the department of industries, Mayor Glysson, City Clerk Mackay and members of the city council. It was a rousing patriotic gathering, the only un-American feature of which was the weather. A Hun weather clerk elected but a steady downpour, which was accompanied at times by a lashing gale, did not by any 'means wreck the plans of the local committee.

Undoubtedly the rough kept the attendance down, but auditorium filled and an overflow found -seats in the galdery. Probably 700 people were present to hear the speaking and to applaud in the most convincing fashion the remarks of Governor Graham, Mr. Duncan and Commissioner Simonds. The latter acted as chairman of the evening and excellent music was furnished by the Montpelier Military band under the leadership of T. R.

Merrill. A small admission fee was charged and the proceeds the labor men will patriotically devote to the work of the Barre Red Cross branch. Members of the local branch assisted in taking tickets at the door and some of their number were active in the advance sale of tickets, as were the members of the labor committee, consisting of Fred W. Suitor, James Cruickshank, Andrew J. Young, Angus McDonald, Alex Ironside.

Seated on the stage with Mr. Duncan, Governor Graham and Commissioner Simonds were Mayor Glysson, City Clerk Mackay, Aldermen Henry Alexander, A. J. Loranger, Antonio M. Rossi and C.

H. Reynolds, and Messrs. Suitor, Cruickshank, Young and McDonald, members the committee. The guests of the C. L.

U. were tendered a big ovation as they took their seats. Commissioner Simonds opened the meeting by saying that he felt like a stranger introducing friends when he introduced Governor Graham and Mr. Duncan. The governor gracefully acknowledged an especially loud salvo of applause as he speak.

He paid a neat tribute to Mr. Duncan's work with the Root mission and promised not to take up too much of the lat- ter's time. Gov. Graham for Liberty Loan. after we are beaten!" Mr.

Duncan Well Received. Governor Graham's brief remarks were in the interests of the Liberty loan. He stated that the money thus invested is to be expended in buying equipment and clothes and in providing shelter for the men whom Vermont and the other states have given to the service of the nation. More than that, he went on, it is to protect our homes. The speaker urged his hearers to practice self-denial in subscribing to the loan and said that even the man who was accustomed to taking an occasional drink could make it two instead of three and contribute the price of the extra drink Liberty bond.

He argued for the little economies. He mentioned liberal subscriptions here in Vermont to the first Liberty loan, to the Red Cross, to the Knights of Columbus fund and to the Y. M. C. and in closing he said, "When the fund is made up, it will be found that Vermont has done as she always does, that she has.

done more than she was asked to do. Now is the time to fight this war and not, perhaps, At this juncture the band played another selection and then Mr. Simonds introduced the speaker of the evening. Prolonged handelapping postponed the moment when Mr. Duncan launched into his address.

Referring at the outset to his selection by President Wilson as a member of the commission to go to Russia. Mr. Duncan said it was good to know that the granite cutters' association generally looked upon it as a great honor to the trade union and to the labor movement in America. The idea, he said, was to select a few representative men to carry a message of good will to the people and to the provisional government of the new ciation of the people of the United Russia, to indicate to them the over the great revolution Hat that country -the greatest known to in friendly manner to inform them that the people of the United States were ready and willing to be helpful to them in the initiation and perpetuity of their young democracy, in any capacity the Russians might designate. Mr.

Duncan's part, it developed in the course of his address, was to deal with the groups of workingmen in their gemblance of organization or otherwise; to convey to them the great interest the working people of the United States took in them, to offer them all possible assistance, and to ascertain how the of this country, especially the organized workers, could aid the working people, (Continued on fourth page), TO FIX COAL PRICES IN VERMONT TOWNS NS Machinery of National Fuel Administration to Be Set Up i in Vermonttral Office to Be Located in Montpelier. its meeting in Montpelier Friday afternoon the state executive committee on coal conservation decided to establish a central office in Montpelier, to which all inquiries to. coal will be addressed. necessitate a permarelative, nent secretary being in charge of the office 80 that all business will be handied promptly.

In a letter addressed to Herbert Hoover the president held that it would be "undesirable in the interest of both these that the wind up of two campaigns should fall within the same Mr. Wilson making it plain that the full success of each movement is essential to an efficient carrying on of the war, the president desiring most earnestly to avoid any circumstances which might militate against the suecess of either. Because of the "exigencies of the treasury" it was decided that the pledge card drive could be the better postponed and Food Administrator Hoover has taken the necessary step to comply with the president's request, delaying the pledge card campaign just one week.

The Vermont committee of public safety to-day issued a statement showing "irrefutable evidence that Vermont is no slacker in the matter of enlistments although some of the metropolitan papers have through insufficient data so stig. matized the state." The statement goes on to show that Vermont was surpassed by only five states, excluding the Distriet of Columbia and the territory of Hawaii, to July 1017, in its proportional number of enlistments in the regarmy and the National Guard, the latter being now a part of the former.

Mr. Buzzell had been in declining health for some time, although he had been confined to the house only a few weeks.

H. Buzzell, he had resided for the past 15 years. The other son is Herbert F. Buzzell of Kalamazoo, Mich. A daughter, Mrs.

Buzzell exhibited inventive ingenuity and as he grew older he made his knowledge of inventions count considerably. In early manhood he began his business career as salesman and for many years thereafter he traveled regularly through the three northern New England states. In odd hours he devoted his time to inventions, some of which were promoted successfully. He came to Barre to live with his son in 1902, after retiring from his activities on the road. Mr.

Buzzell was fond of a jest, clever in repartee, and was held in high esteem by many local acquaintances. He was a member of the Seventh Day Adventist church and was a consistent believer in its tenets. Funeral services will be held at his home Sunday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock, Rev. J. B.

CAMP LOOTING IS CHARGED Two and a Woman Wei Arrested Late Friday GRAN LARCENY 'TION BROUGHT William Wagner, Charles Gilchrist and Marion Phillips the Respondents William Wagner and Charles Gilchrist were arrested by Deputy George Grandfield of Fayston Friday afternoon, the former having been found in the road while on his way to his home, while the latter was found at the camp of Robert Gordon, in company with a woman named Marion Phillips. They were charged with grand larceny and were brought into Montpelier city court in the early evening, pleading not guilty; and a hearing will take place as soon as State's Attorney E. R. Davis can look after the matter, having several other affairs of more importance ahead of him now. It is alleged that Wagner and Gilchrist took from the camp of Henry Emmons, near the Three- Mile bridge, two phonographs, 30 records, a rifle, pair of boots and a blanket.

Gilchrist had on a pair of boots when he came into court. He also wore a soldier's uniform which he claimd he bought in Rutland. He also told the story that he had been soldiering for four months and that he happened up this way on a furlough. Wagner had been to Montpelier and with his wife was on his way home whn they were met by officers. The officers had been to the Gordon camp which is near what is known as Camp's mills, and about 3 o'clock Friday afternoon telephoned that they had found the goods and had a man, but for the offers at Montpelier to watch for Wagner, which done.

However, he had left for home before the word reached the officers in Montpelier. The officers went back to the camp Friday evening to identify the rest of the goods, which were found there, taking with them Henry Emmons, the owner of the camp. The result was that Marion Phillips, the woman who was left at the place, was arrested on the same charge as the men. She was brought into city court and bail of $500 was fixed, which she has furnished. Probably the cases' will come to not trial in city court, because they are grand larceny charges and information can be as easily fled in county court Monday.

PLEADED GUILTY IN KEEPING CASE Charles Villa, Who Was Arrested After Big Raid Will Be Sentenced Next Wednesday. Charles Villa, whose premises on West street yielded a large haul of liquor in a raid made Tuesday afternoon, appeared before Magistrate H. W.

W. Scott continued the case until Wednesday morning for sentence and the respondent was held in the sum of $3,000 for his appearance, the bail being furnished. The liquor, which included 639 quarts of whiskey, 104 bottles of beer, and claret, grappe brandy and Martini coktails, was condemned by the court and ordered destroyed. Villa was representated by Atty. J.

Ward Carver and State's Attorney Earle R. Davis appeared for the prosecution. INJUNCTION GRANTED To John E. and Minnie Corney Against Andrew Ance. Essex.

Judge L. P. Slack this morning signed an injunction restraining John E. and Minnie Corney, both of Northfield, from bringing any action against Andrew Ance, also of Northfield. The hearing on the injunction will be held in in county court Monday, Oct.

15. The bill in chancery is the outcome of a purchase of hay which Ance made from the Corneys.
