There la some talk of th German bringing their big forty-two centime i ter gun -to tb coast to ue against ' the allies' warship but th British! sailors are credited with saying thatj their vessels can prevent these gun ; from being put in position. They i claim that even if they should be mounted they will not be so deadly against a fast moving target as against th stationary forts they destroyed so easily. While this lite and death struggle is going on in the west, the French have become more active along the Alsatian border and are said to be making preparations and securing ad vanced position in view of possible attacks by the Germans with their big howltsera fin the Belfort fortress. - It now seem to be realtxed that no fort re ha any chance of holding out when once these big German gun are brought Into action against It. The German official report tonight again speaks of the German offensive on AuguMowo, Russian Poland, which It declare Is progressing. It reit erates that the battle near Ivaogorod, although favorable to the Germans, remains undecided. North of this section the Russian claim they are still pursuing th Ger mans. who attempted an advance on Warsaw 'and southward to have crossed the Vistula and driven the Austrian back. In Gallcla and In the Carpathian the Russians also claim to hav bro ken down the Austrian offensive. As the days come and go th prom ised visit of the Zeppelin to England do not materialise and the public seemingly is beginning to believe that these moiurtcr aircraft are being held In reserve for the day that th Ger man navy come out and that they will be ued in force to assist th warship in an endeavor to cripple th Brttlah fleet.

Transfer of the crew of the German ipower schooner Aeolus, sunk by the Japanese battleship Uizen off this port Saturday, from that warahlp to a launch of the North German Lloyd refuge steamer Locksun out side the harbor yeaterday, has raised Questions as to the propriety of this set. The Locksun is anchored here and there 1 uncertainty a to whether her lending out a launch did not constitute a breach of neutrality. As there were Chinese among the crew of the Aeolus a possible breach of the Immigration law also is in volved.
