MET FIGHTING IHSHTLE FRENCH CLAIM "MARKED PROG RESS"—GERMANS CLAIM AL LIES WERE REPULBED. FEVER AND CHOLERA RAGE | German Camps Battle With Dread Disease—Many Succumb to Con tagion—Russians Press Forward. London.—Along almost two-thirds of the great battle lino across north eastern France the armies of the fel lies and Germany continued to fight fiercely, at some points with the bayo nets, and latest statements from both sides are worded with the optimism that has characterized all these offi cial pronouncements. It was agreed that the allies had continued their ad vance. The French claimed "marked prog ress." The German announcement from Berlin, though insisting that the advance had been less referred to it as an advance. Elsewhere along the battle front neither side seems to have achieved any notable sucess. The Continued forward movement of Russian troops in Galicia; the appearance of German aircraft drop ping bombs over various places in Belgium and again in Paris and War saw, and the movement of vast bodies of German troops into Russia by way of East Prussia, were chffefty signifi cant In a summary of the events in both theaters of war. Of the German bombs thrown none seems to have done extensive damage. .One man is reported to have been killed in Belgium and one In Paris. The explosives In Paris fell near the quarter occupied by many Americans. There is an unconfirmed rumor that an attack on Antwerp Is Impend ing. Neither army has achieved any thing notable since the .allies have re ported progress in one direction. The allies at one point claim to have thrown back a desperate advance by the crack Prussian Guard, and ° the Germans insist that, with a weaker force, their right has checked the ad vance of a mixed French and British force brought up by rail. Recurring references to bayonet charges seem to prove conclusively that this picturesque and romantic phase of warfare, which It was thought had been killed by the advent of gfeat guns and Other equipment or modern armies, is not all a thing of -the past. The French official communication ■ays that at some points the trenches are only 100 meters apart; thus a small portion of the millions engaged have taken the stimulation and thrill of band-to-hand fighting. What opposition the Germans have met is believed to have been little more than a cavalry screen. The -lighting centered again along the Riv er Niemen, from Druskenlkl in Su walkl, Russian Poland, to Sopotzkln. The official statement Issued at Petro grad said the German artillery had been unable to assume the offensive at Sopotzkln, and that their retreat was more or less general. GERMANB MAKE QAINB. Both Bides Continue Hard Fighting. English Forming New Army. London. —The wings of the oppos ing armies in Northern France are still striking hard blows at each other In an effort to break through the re spective position. Both sides, according to the French official report issued have made some progress, the Germans on the allies' right perhaps the greatest. For three days or more a violent battle has been raging in the hills and plains between the rivers Olse and Somme. Official accounts, both German and French, are silent as to how' this fight is going, but In the frontal attack on the Germans' strong ly fortified and well reinforced posl tiens farther south the allies have made some slight progress. The Ger mans apparently are satisfied to re main on the defensive until the battle on the flank has been decided. From Soissons to Rheims and thence to Verdtut there haa been no change in the situation, but in the south of Woevre the French continue to make progress and have defeated a German corps with heavy losses. . . Continue Moratorium. . Bordeaux.—The Cabinet adopted a decree continuing the moratorium dur ing the month of October and making all contratfts between Frenchmen and subjects of the belligerents draws since the outbreak of hostilities nail and void. Total German Dead. Berlin, by way of London.—The to tal German casualties in dead, wound ed and missing as officially given to date are 104.5 W. The casualty Hat announced adds a total of 10,527 casu alties to those previously announced. Emperer is 111.

Tho-war In Europe continued, with each side claiming partial victories. The destruction of the noted cathedral at Rheims was niCWS anapsnois one of ttj e no t eiV orthy features oif the week. The allies claimed that the building was shelled us an net of vandalism, while the Of the Week GeHohtis said that the enemy had been using the towers of the building as wireless stations and as observation from which to learn the positions of the Germans, which made the destruction of the cathedral towers n military necessity. Many Belgian and French towns were destroyed, railroad and other bridges being dynamited In an effort to check the movements of troops. All nations engaged, continued to recruit and drill troops, and every available man was ordered to report Kalser'Wllhelm took an active part In the campaign and visited sol diers In camp and the wounded in hospitals. As a result of exposure to rain he was said to be suffering from a severe colJ CANADIAN TROOPS DEPART FOR WAR 30,000 On Their Way To Aid Mother Country—Servians Capture Bosnian City 3 BRITISH CRUISERS SUNK Daring Feat by Lone German Subma rine on North Sea—Battle of Alsne Continues The struggle between the allied ar mies of France and Great "Britain against the Germans north of the Aisne river near the Belgian border in France continues with unabated fury. Both forces have met with al ternating victories and defeats, from day to day, but no definite advantage has been gained by either side. By a brilliant stroke a lone German sub marine dashed from the German Kelt canal to the North Sea and before re turning to its haven of safety succeed ed in sinking three of the British cruisers. The Servians during the past week succeeded la capturing Sar ajevo, the Bosnian capital, where Archduke Ferdinand, heir apparent to the Austrian throne, was assassinated, from the Austrlans. In Galicia the Russians are surrounding Przemsyl, the last of the Austrian strongholds. Canadian Boldiers to Europe Though much has been said regard ing the mobolizlng of the Canadian troops for service on the European continent, little has been known of the actual movement of the troops and not until the last few days has It be come known that 30,000 Canadian sol diers were on their way tb fight along side of. British in France. The censors have not permitted the fact to become known as to where these soldiers sailed from or where their destination will be. The same secrecy that covered the landing of British soldiers In France and the movement of the troops from India, is attending the transporting of the ti oops from Canada. German Navy Hemmed In Day after day the British warships have been awaiting outside of the Keil canal for the coming of the Ger man ships. Once by a clever ruse they were, able to entice several o( the kaiser's war vessels from the protec tion of the canal with the result that the German navy lost two vessels. It was the fact that the British had the German ships hemmed in that gave them the freedom of the high seas. After that the German warships were lost sight of entirely. Attack by Germans a Surprise The attack by the German subma rine was a great surprise to the Brit ish fleet and even the British termed It as a brilliant feat. Not until one of their vessels was struck did they become aware of the presence of the tiny death-dealing ship. Two other of the British vessels went to the assist ance of the one that was struck and they, too, were struck by torpedoes.

Allies Land In Austria Paris.—A dispatch to the Italian | newspaper Messaggero, forwarded to j Paris by the Rome correspondent of the Havas agency, says that the allied forces have landed In Dalmatla after bombarding the fortified harbor at Lis. sa. The British and French flags were then hoisted to provoke the Austrian fleet to come out and engage the allied fleet in battle.

The Frenqh army is entrenched In a position between the Somme and the Oise, approximately sixty mtles north of Paris. On the eastern end of the battle line the Germans are reported to be mak ing a determined assault on the Ver dun positions. One report of the fight ing places the Gferman casualties at 10,000 dead and 16,000 wounded. The German army headquarters In Its latest official statement regarding the situation in France confines Itself to stating that there have been some minor engagements, but that nothing of Importance has transpired. f The sharpening of British censorship just announced Is apparent to a mark ed degree already. A considerable amount of unofficial reports, comment and special dispatches from the war zone is not being transmitted. In the eastern theater the Russian pursuit of the Austro-German forces in Galicia continues. A Russian official statement says the Gallclan fortified positions of Cdyschky and Foulstyn, together with all the Austrian artillery, have been captured. | Following the capture of Jaroslau the Russian flag has moved forward twelve miles to the west of that post-1 tion and now flies over the towns ot Przeworsk and Lancut.

Austrlans Are Completely Routed Ntsh, Bervla.—The battle which has been in progress for Beveral days near Krupanl, on the Drina river, has ac cording to official announcement ended In complete disaster for the Austrian army. The announcement declared that 160,000 Austrian troops were engaged in this encounter, while the Servian forces Included various bodies of men who had been concentrated along the Drina, reinforced by troops hastily re called from Semlln and Slavonla. The fighting was very sanguinary. Russians Take' Jaroslav Petrograd.—Russian troops have oc cupled the fortified Austrian position of Jaroslav, according to official an nouncement made here. The Russian flag is flying over the town. Jaroslav Is an Important railroad center. A bridge near the town i crosses the San and commands the passage of that rlvor. The town Is lo- j eated neventeen miles north-northwest of Przemsyl and is on the raljroad line between Lemberg and Cracow. The Austrian attempt on Bhabats ! was repulsed with heavy loss. Canadian Troops to the War. St. Johns, N. B. —T. W. Crothori, 1 minister of labor of the Dominion of Canada, announced that 32,000 Cana dian volunteers "had gone to the (.out { a day or two ago." Mr. Crothers made the announce- j incnt in a speech before the Canadian I trades and labor congress in convcn- ' tion here. Mr. Crothers extolled the spirit of the Canadian volunteers. T.he foregoing brief-ditipatch is the ; only announcement the Canadian ceu- j sor has permitted to go over the wires i i regarding the disposition ot the Can- I adlan volunteers for more than a week. | Persons reaching the United States | ( Irom Canadian ports have told ot act- , ( ive preparations therefor the transpor- 1 j latlon of Canada's first contingent of : | troops to tlie theater ot war; a month 1 | ago the prophecy was made that the volunteers would sail about September 15; one by one trans-Atlantic liners ' have been callod (or undisclosed mis- ] sions to Canadian porta; but no In for ' | uiation lias been permitted to reach ] : the outside world as to when the troops would sail from or what port would be their destination. Beyond the bare announcement that the Canadian volunteers had sailed, no other news of their departure was per mitted to get past the censor. British Steamer Is Sunk Rio Janeiro.—The German steamer Prussia has srrived at Santos and land- ' ed the master and fifteen men of the I British steamer Indian Prince, which ( was sunk by the German auxiliary cruiser Kronprlnz Wllhelm. Russians Surround Przemsyl In Garcia the Russians are pushing steadily on their goal, which for the moment is Przemsyl. They apparent- ' ly have that placo pretty well sur rounded by now, for, following the capture of Jaroslau, they announced the occupation of Wlslok, on the Hun garian border, southwest of Przem syl, and an ImporUnt station on the raliwav which runs frost Sanok | through one or the passes oi me Car | pathians to Zemplln, and thence to I Budapest. Wlslok probably was taken by that | part of the Russian army which ad- I vanced from Lemberg by the southern route to cut off the retreat of the j Austrian array through the Carpath- I lane to Hungary. It Is also another link in the chain which the Russians are drawing around the fortresses of Przemsyl and Cracrow. On the German frontier the Rus sians are in close touch with the Ger man forces, according to their report, but no fighting has occurred. The Servians record almost dally successes. This time it Is the capture of Llubovia on the river Drina. Germans Destroy Famous Cathedral London.—The Rhelpis correspondent ] : (jf the Daily Mall sends tills sfbry of the damage wrought In the cathe dral there: "The magnificent cathedral of Rheims, was a national monu ment of universal fame, now Is no more than an empty shell of charred and blackened wall. It Is not yet known to what extent Its stone work has been weakened by the flames or whether later It can be restored, but it will never be what it was before. British Disaster Pleases Berlin Berlin. —The sinking of the three ! British armored cruisers, the Abouklr, Hogue and Cressy, of 12,200 tons each, ! is the big news feature in Berlin's 1 newspapers. Details of the battle are not yet available. I The ne£B was received with partlc | utar pleasure, as it served to reconcile i the German sailors with the policy im | posed upon them of higher strategy, \ under which the officers and men of the flee are chafing, despite all admo nitions of patience from the newspa pers and public opinion. Mutinous Chinese Jailed Honolulu. —Seventy members of the I Chinese crown of the German refugee I steamers Loongmuon, Staatesekertar i Kraetke and Gouvernottr Jaeslike, ot | the Hamhurg-Amerlcun lino, were lm i prisoned here on mutiny charges made | by the captains of the vessels. Jail | accommodations are taxed by the num | ber of Orientals under arrest, but the ; captains of the German steamers say j they fear further trouble from the 150 I Chinese still aboard their ships. They said the Chinese had refused to stay j aboard uny longer. | ABANDON THE MAGAZINES Corset Manufacturers Turn , papers ss Mediums for Rescu ing Public. The advertising manager #one of j the largest corset houses In the coun ; try expressed the opinion recently i that, as advertising mediums, the general magazines have "struck , twelve." To a cerlatn extent bis opln ; lon Is borne out by facta. With the i exception of one magazine published In New York city and circulating throughout the better class, the wom en's magazines of Ainerlca have suf | fercd somewhat of a setback during tho past few seasons. Many big Im portant accounts which Ave years ago consumed an enormous smount ol space are rarely found now In the general magazines. The corset msnu facturers themselves are eschewing the general publication. The newsps pers seem to be preferred. Localized advertising, backed up by the co-op eration of the dealer, baa been found on the whole lo produce the most sat isfactory results. This fall, for Instance, the most Im portant of tho corset advertisements sppearcd almost wholly In Ihe news papers. From one end of the country to the other the same general an nouncement of one of the largest houses appeared In all Uie local pa pers, the advertisement emphasizing the Importance of commencing to buy on a certain data. The Intimate re lation which this character of adver tising bears to the local trade can easily be sppredsted. and the results ars always more readily traceable. It was stated some time sgo by the advertising mansger of one of the large eastern department stores that magazine advertising did not direct business Into the retsll stores to any appreciable degree, quoting, by way of example, several specific Instances of magazine advertising campaigns which under careful analysis failed absolutely to Justify the retailer to stocking them to the exclusion of non advertised brands. It has been ssld that, like matters of religion, advertising must be taken on a basis of faith. Where, however, appropriations run into two, three and Ave hundred thousand dollars, those who supply fbe money for these enor- J mous campaigns are naturally anxloaa to reduce the element of faith to the minimum. They therefore use the newspapers, which apparently are far more direct in their action. % „ CAT MAY LOOK AT A KING i ■ ■■ ■ But ■ Briton Hat No Legal Right to Talk to Him and Audlonco la by Prlvllsga/ London.—lt li not generally known :hat there la no right of peraonal au dience of the king and yet It la a .veil recognized point of constitntlon tl law* * No commoner In the land eon claim i>ny such privilege aa of right under English law.
