ATLANTA, GA., SATURDAY, MAY 11, 1918 {By International News Service) LONDON, May 11.—British avi ators have photographed Ostend, confirming that Friday morning's en terprise against the submarine base was entirely successful, and that the fairway is now locked. The old cruiser Vindictive, which was sunk at the entrance to the har bor, was manned by fifty-two volun teers, including a iieutenant com mander and four engine rocm attend ants who had taken part in the Zee brugge attack. The Germans scented trouble and opened fire with their shore batteries. Eleven six and four-inch shells were tiircwn seaward when the British na val forces were still two and one-haif miles off shore. Meanwhile airplanes began to bom bard Ostend and long range guns in Flanders were turned against the Os ten district. When the sea fog roli ed away the British sent out a smoke screen which complesely hid the ves sels. It was so thick ‘it could not be penetrated even by searchlights. The Germans kept yp their gun fire, seek ign out the Vindictive, but the shells missed the monitors and motor boats. The Vindictive groped along the coast for half an hour seeking the bottle-necked harbor. Finally the Germans began to send up high power star shells revealing the pier heads nearhy. The bow of the cruiser was jammed against one pier while the stern swung across the channel, grounding aft. Explosives were fired, sending the Vinaictive to the bottom. A motor boat dashed alongside taking off the officers and 38 men. They were car ried to Commodore Lyne's flagship, the Warwick. . Another motor boat returned and took off a lieutenant and two men who had been wouaded. Aircraft Charges (By International News Service) NEW, YORK, May Il.—Asserting that more than 3,000 American air planes might have bheen in use on the western battle front as far back as last March, Gutzon Borglum this aft ernoon issued a statement countering the charge that he had hoped to reap financial gain as a result of his alle gations against the Government's air craft program, He denied with vigor that he had been actuated with selfish purposes and insisted that his friendship for President Wilson has never been mis used. “I deny the charge that I improperly used the President’s authority in any matter whatsoever,” said Borglum, “efther in a manner to offend good form or to constitute a breach of con fidence. The people who are opposing me presented that charge to the Pres ident in 2 way to offend him, as it na*- urally would.” ‘ Exterminator Wins r Wi Kentucky Derby CHURCHILL DOWNS, LOUIS VILLE, May Il.—Exterminator won the Kentucky Deorby here this after noon.

WALES, Staff Correspondent of International News Service, LONDON, May 11.—The German air service has been battered to pieces. Since March 21, it is stated, their losses total 700 pilots, observers ard machine gunners, while 1,000 ma chines have heen destroyed. This ex plains the cessation of the raids on London &nd Paris-—the enemy being forced to withdraw night pilots for use in day flying and observing on the fighting front. The Germans also require their huge long-distance llmmhing machines for bombing near the front hecause they have lost so ‘many of the regulation small type. It is no secret that the British avia tion service saved the situation in the early crucial days of the drive when Von Hindenburg flung 40 divisions against the British fifth army, which had only fourteen divisions. The German aviation service suf fered tremendous losses (rying to gain supremacy of the air as low flying British machines attacked and broke up German communication and supply trains with machine gun fire and bombed newly constructed rail way centers, thus delaying the Ger man advance. Allied Battle Line Advanced Near Ypres (By International News Service.) LONDON, May 11.—The ailied line has been advanced northeast of Lo (re, the British War Office announced today. (Locre lies about five miles south west of Ypres, on the West [Manders front, amidst the hills .that the Ger mans have vainly been trying to cap ture. The village itself was recently taken by the French in a storm at tack. A few German prisoners were cap tured.

PARKE, Staff go'rrespondent of the Inter national News Service. WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, May 10 (Delayed.)— American artillery this morning co operated with the French guns in preparing the way for a French raid in the sector of the Apremont forest (on the Woevre plain), The bombardment lasted two hours and was so intense that it was plainly heard in Toul, between sixteen and seventeen miles. Previous to the raid, the Americans on the French right flank created a= infantry diversion. Our patrol en tered the village of Apremont, but found no CGCermans. It returned through a barrage fire that the. Ger man batteries laid down. Another American patrol ent the outer entanglements in front of the German trenches. The men were working on the heavy inner line, ten yards from the German trenches when twenty Germans attacked with hombs,‘ rifles and automatics. The Americans returned the fire for fifteen minures when they heard German rvinforc:-‘ ments running along the duck boar 15‘ of their trenches. Then they retir:d, | not having sustained any casualties, ‘ In the preliminary bombardmant the Germans countered, throwing nu merous gas shells { Prisoners recently captured by the | Americans northwest of Toul divulged that the Germans were bringing up‘ fiame throwers and placing them be hind Apremont preparatory to an at tack, whereupon American artillery threw over an assortment of pro jectiles, and fine results were report ed. 'The prisoners taken today con firmed the reports fully. Before our patrol made its unmo lested tour of Apremont village this morning a private made a daylight jaunt into Apremont on his own hook. This private learned yesterday after noon there was to be something auing and expecting his lieutenant would re connoiter, decided to beat him to it. Continued on Page 2, Column 5.

Fanelkk avenged hiz team mate’ Guynemer, a few days after the German airman Wissner shot down the French super-ace near Poelcapelle in September, by shooting down Wissner within the Allied lines near Dixmude.

He ig re garded as showing the fin2st tech nique in air fighting of all pilots, with the possible exception of Jean Navarre.

When the regimental colors and the ‘Sturs and Stripes were carried by, the king removed his hat. As the men marched past the palace the regiment al band from the Grenadier Guards, played “The Stars and Stripes For ever.” Although the windows of the palace were curtalned, the faces of the ser vants could be discerned peeping out. There was a tremendous cheering throng in St. James park opposite the palace, This was “American Day” in Lon ldun and a rousing reception was giv en to the American soldiers that ]m;n*(')u- dthrough the streets. “Old Glory” flew alone from tha Warp Office, where rPemier Lloyd George, Chan cellor A.

Traffe was halted and every open space was a sea of human faces. . British Tommies evinced interest in the men. The Americans were smil ing and intensely intcrested in every. thing. They carried their equipment 'sturaily and made in '~xvvlls;m. show ing. . ; All of the London papers gave large space to Americon day and the march of the American soldiers.
