RUSSIANS' PRESS
ON INTO GERMANY
Kaiser's Armies In The East Have Been
Unable to Hold The Russian *
Invaders
AIDES STAND FIO AT YSEB
Germans Have Made No Progress !r,
France—Allied Warihips Cap
ture German Scourges
British mercantile shipping greatly
increased during the past week and
the marine insurance rates in Lon
don were cut nearly In half as the re
sult of the capture of the German
cruisers Emden and Konigabe g off the
Chilean coast. The Emden alone had
a record of capturing or destroying 22
British trading vessels, and these Ger
man warships had made life misera
ble for British shipping on the high
seas. The, allleß have been able to
hold their own against the Germans
along the Yser river in the north of
F ance and the kaiser's armies are
no nearer to the French seacoast than
they were a week ago.
The most important development of
the past week in the European war
has been the campaign of the Rus
sians against the Germans in the east
of Prussia, Gallcia and Russian Pol
and. Here the Russians have surpris
ed the world with their ability to fol
low up the retreat of the Germans
from Poland and a great danger of
Russian invasion of Germany is de
veloping in that direction. After about
two months of apparent idleness In
east Prussia the invading armies of
Russia are again taking the offensive
and so far the Germans have been
unable to check their advance.
The allies In France and Belgium
are very much elated over the suc
cess of the campaign of the Russians
in the east. They are hoping that the
czar's armies will prove such a men
ace that it will be necessary for the
Germans to withdraw a portion of the
armies in France to protect their own
country in the east. Should
mans be compelled to do this it would
probably mean that the allies would
bring up great numbers of reserves
and force the Germans to retreat with
in their own border in the west.
That England is ( settllng down to a
long war and that recent remarks by
Edward Gray that the present war
was only really starting so far an
England was concerned, Is quite evi
dent from the fact that parliament
has been asked for a million more
men and another war appropriation of
more than a billion dollars. It is esti
mated that at t}ie present time Eng
land has more than a million and a
half men held in reserve in England
ready to be sent to the front. These
consist of new recf-uits, territorials and
Canadian troops. *
There seems to be somewhat of a
confliction in the reports from Berlin
and London concerning the safety of
the North sea for shipping. London
recently Issued a notice that the south
end of the sea was not safe for ship
ping and all neutral vessels were
wamed not to traverse this area with
out a British boat for a guide. Tho
Germans later issued an identical bul
letin with the exception that it de
clared that the Bouth end of the sea
was safe from mines, but that the
north was not. The-question In the
minds of the ship owners of neutral
countries now I*, which end of tho
sea is really safe?
After the fall of the German fortress
at Tslng-Tau, China, the allied ships
which were engaged In shelling the
fortress, have been released and are
now scouring the Southern seas for
German war vessels. This has restor
ed confidence and served to increase
shipping to and from British ports. It
means that British merchant vessels
will be able to sail these seas with
comparative safety.
German Airmen Fly Over England
Berlin.— According to information
given out to the press, in official quar
ters, German aviators have flown over
the English seaports of Sheerness and
Harwlck. Sheerness is a fortified sea
port in Kent, ?t the mouth of the
Thames. It is about forty miles from
London. Harwich Is in Essex and
about seventy miles northeast of Lon
don
Turkish Transports Are Bunk
London. —An official dispatch from
Constantinople reaching London by
way of Berlin, confirms indirectly the
recent Russian statement that a Rus
sian fleet had sunk three Turkish
transports in the Black sea. The Con
stantinople report admits that there
has been no news of these ships since
they left the Tutkish capital a week
•go. It adds that as the vessels were
near Songuldak, on the Black sea, the
day this place was bombarded, it Is
possible that they were attacked by
the Russian squadron.

Nothing Official Comes From Dixmude
Both Germans and Allies Claim
ing Success.
London.—After four weeks cf most
desperate fighting, there Is a lull In
tlie battle in Flanders.
Clbtle relief, however, has come for
the men In the trenches, as th-J artil
lery and rifle Are has been replaced i
. by a severe November storm.
In some parts of England the storm i
has become a blizzard. On the sea 1
a heavy gale rages, and the batt.e i
fields are getting their full share of j
wind and rain.
For the most part the opposing arm
lea have been content to shell each
other at long ranges, but the Or j
mans have made several attacks 1
around Ypres, which according to the
Prench general staff, have been re
pulsed with heavy losses.
It Is not believed that the Germans
h».ve any Intention of giving up their
attempt to reach the French coast,
and the Allies are making elaborate
preparations to block any further ad
vance In force.
Extensive defense works have been
erected along the Yser Canal, and
the French armies are holding that
line from the Belgian border south
to the river Oise, and passing for
ward approach works which place
them In a better position for either
defnse or offense.
The Germans report that they have
taken a few hundred British and
French prisoners, but that the un
favorable weather has impeded their,
progress. Concerning Dixmude the
public must rely on unofficial reports,
It is said the Germans are finding
the destroyed village a death trap.
They have been unable to debouch
from' it in the day time, as all the
approaches are commanded by the
Allies' guns, and nlgbt attacks have
met with disaster.
The fact Is apparent that'neither
side has made any significant ad
vance, both being so well trenched
that neither artillery nor Infantry can
move them.
The Germans are turning Belgium
into a fortress, which means that if
they do not succeed in advancing they
intend to be prepared to winter there.
i-Jfhe whole coast from Ostend to the
Dutch border has been placed in a
state of defense and civilians are
rigorously excluded from that area, j
A battle of some propotrions Is go- !

GRAHAM, N. C., THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 19, 1914.
IN THE WORLD'S SHAVE SHOP
sr.y T?I6QK/}7*C J-
London.—While the battle In West
Flanders continues to hold public at
tention because of the desperate char
acter of the fighting, the numbers of
men engaged and the territory at
stake, military men now look on East
Prussia as the center of gravity of
the war.
In the latter field a tremendous
battle Is developing. The Russians
are pushing vigorously a great en
veloping movement. They are en
gaged with the Germans along n wide
curve of 150 miles from Stalluponen,
In the northeast, through Goldap and
Kruglanken, which Is well within the
tangle of lakes, down to Soldau In
the southwest.
Military observers say the Germans
apparently have checked their retreat
in Poland and are counter-attacking.
They say, however, that the Russians
are not to be turned from their plan,
which Is believed to.be an attack on
Danzig. They argue that the Germans
either must allow East Prussia to be
overrun a second time or bring up
reinforcements, and that they hardly
can weaken their army along the
Polish frontier, for that would leave
Posen and Silesia open to Invasion.
The allies, naturally, are hoping an
effort will be made to relieve East
Prussia at a sacrifice to the German
armies In Belgium and France.
In any fighting In their own coun
try the Germans -jrtßbave the advan
tage over the as they have
a network of strategic railways to
move their troops quickly, and they
use more motors than their, oppon
ents. Military men are watching oper
ations In this region with deepest
Interest.
Germans Prepare To Resist
Paris.-—llavas' Petrograd corre
spondent telegraphs: "News that the
retreating German troops have occu
pied all defiles east of tho Mazurlan
lakes. East Prussia, where they have
placed heavy artillery, has led to the
conclusion that they Intend to resist
the Russians tenaciously in that re
gion. The Germans hope that here
the shock of the Russians will be
broken. Throughout all Prussia rail
way passenger traffic has been sus
pended. The lines are transporting
only troops, apparently with a view
to new concentration, said to have
been decided by a recent council of
the AustroOerman general staffs at
Cracow. This council Is reported to
have decided to change complete the
plan of battle."
Allies Holding Their Own
London. —The correspondent of The
Times In France sends the following
regarding the fighting on the Alsner
"On the whole, the allies have the
advantage. The French capture of
Questcy-en-Santerre was a good deal
bigger affair than reported. On the
other hand, the enemy's accounts of
a great victory at Vallly were exag
gerated. They obtained a tempo ran
advantage, but the allies hare more
than regained the original positions."
Concessions Offered Roumanla
Venice. —It Is stated here that
Count Tlsza, the Hungarian premier,
has promised political concessions to
Roumanians In Austria In return for
Roumanla's aid In the war. Among
the concessions alleged to have been
promised are complete amnesty for all
political offenders, pennlsslon to use
and display the Roumanian national
colors, a revision of the franchise,
which will assure to Roumanians ade
quate representation In elective bod
ies and In parliament and a reform
of school laws.

A. Inglls, who was found guilty by
a courtmartial of espionage November

German Airmen Are Trapped
Paris. —A * thrilling encounter be
tween four German and two French
and two British aerqplanes has occur
red near Ypres. The German machines
finally were destroyed by artillery and
their eight officers killed. When tho
Germans were seen approaching the
allies' lines the French and British
craft ascended to meet them. For
some time tho airships circled about
each other while mcahlne guns inef
fectually spattered bullets among
them. Then suddenly the four allied
aeroplanes made a swift dash toward
their own trenches. The Germans,
following them, discovered them too
late. Shrapnel began to hurst about
them and In a few minutes they crash
ed to the earth.
Additional Million Men Wanted
London.—England is beginning to
learn the cost of the European war, A
White Paper shows that the govern
ment intends to ask parliament for
$1,125,000,000, which, with their $500,-
000,000 voted at the last session, Is
expected to be Great Britain's bill for
the financial year ending March 31.
Of tills sum, however, u small part
has been loaned to Belgium and Ser
vla, and some will be used to assist
the dominions and the allies to make
their financial arrangements. A por.
tion of the money also will bo re
quired for tho additional million men
to be enlisted, who will bring the
English regular army up to 2,186,000.
These figures do not Include the ter
ritorials, who number nearly six hun
dred thousand.
German Cruisers Are Captured
London.—The British navy got Into
the war picture with two successes—
tho destruction of tho German cruiser
Euiden, in the eastern waters of the
Indian ocean, and the bottling up of
the Konlgsberg, considered her sister
ship, In the western extremity of the
same sea.
These two raiders, especially tho
ICmden, have many successes to their
credit and their skill In-evading the
net thrown out for them has been a
matter of chagrin to British naval
men.
The ttmden's end came In battle as
befitted her record throughout recent
history, for, according to all accounts,
even those of her victims, she played
a clean game, strictly in accordance
with the recognized rule of naval war
fare.
After a sharp action off C'ocos Island
with the Australian cruiser Sydney,
the German ship, with heavy casual
ties, was beached, ablaze. The Ger
man cruiser Konlgsberg met a less
glorious fate, as she was bottled up In
such a position thai she must either
bo captu'ed or surrendered, though
In either case, she probably will be
nothing but a useless hulk.
The cruiser Chatham, which ran
down the Konlgsberg in the river op
posite the Island of Mafia, German
East Africa, is a sister ship of the
Sydney, which closed the career of the
