It is said the losers left 25,000 killed and wounded on the battlefield.

The President conferred with the Democratic members of the House ways and means committee this afternoon with regard to tne propoacu wa. , tax bill. It is said the committee has practically abandoned the suggestion to tax railroad tickets, and looked with dis favor on the proposal to tax gasoline. Indications this af ternoon were that the tax would be imposed on beer, wine, amusement tickets, soft drinks, moving picture films, prob ably whisky and possibly cigars, the latter being in addition to the present taxes. FOODSTUFFS ARE SOARING. New York, Sept. 5. The New York World claims that New Yorkers are paying $800,000 more weekly for food than they were before the war started. Rcniodoling operations at the New York Store were practically com pleted today, -and the Improvements are even more marked titan antici pated at the time a rearrangement ot the establishment was anticipated by its owners. The second floor has been closed, the stairway and over head space being shut off by a large and attractive skylight. Through this skylight the lower floor of the store Is furnished plenty of light. The old counters, which for many years had seen service in the store, have been eliminated, and In their stead have been Installed n number of attractive showcases. These cases are of tbe latest design, and are well adapted to the display of goods such ns carried by the New York Store. The former practice of delaying cus tomers while their purchases and money were sent to the office for checking, has been eliminated, and the clerks now make their own change ami prepare the packages lo be taken from the store. This not onlv saves patrons ot tbe store con siderable time, but eliminates need less expense to the proprietors of the establishment. The front of the store has been repainted, while the show windows have received due at tention. Other equally ns important Improvements have been made, which makes the store one of the most attractive In the cltv.

(Special to The Review) . London, Sept. 5. German losses of 200,000 killed and wounded were given by the Daily Mail's correspondent at Gisors, France, as a moderate estimate for the campaign thus far. Tes correspondent spoke of this as 20 per cent of the total number of the Kaiser's troops in the field. This would mean 1,000,000 men are under arms. The same cor respondent placed the Franco-British allies' losses in killed and wounded at eight per cent of their total number. GENERAL ENGAGEMENT IS PLANNED. Pa ris, Sept. 5. The Germans are concentrating for their supreme effort, it is stated by military authorities. It is believed they have planned to force a general engagement before definitely taking the offensive against Paris itself. The expert theory was that they wanted to crush the allies' field army as a preliminary to attempting a reduction of the fortifications surrounding Paris. This would insure them against attacks from the rear while conducting the siege. The military governor, General Gallieni, said the city's defenders were already in contact with the enemy. ALLIES MAY BE SURROUNDED. Paris, Sept. 5. Fears that the Franco-British allies are in danger of being surrounded by the Germans is enter tained here.' The allies' left wing, which was desperately harassed, had retired on its reserves, and was preparing to meet anoLher attack. Three Germans armies crossing the Meuse had also driven back the French center. German cavalry scouts are reports close to the outer ring of the Paris forts.

This represents about 20 per cent of the Germans under arms. The allies losses are said to be about eight per cent of their total number. Paris reports are to the effect that the Germans have planned to force a general engagement before definitely taking the offensive against Paris itself. An order for an Italian mobilization, is looked for at any hour, according to Rome dispatches. Auslrians arc completely crushed by the offensive movement of the field force under Grand Duke Nicholas. Fears that the Franco-British allies are in danger of being surrounded by the Germans is entertained in Paris, according to late dispatches. President Wilson today conferred with Dcmo ti nt ic members of the House ways and means com mittee with regard to the proposed war tax. It is pro posed to tax beer, wine, amusement tickets, soft drinks, moving picture films, and probably whisky and cigars, the latter being in addition to present taxes. Two hundred thousand Germans are sent to help the Austrians against the Russians in Galicia. Jews may become army officers, according to a decree of the Czar. Foodstuffs soar in New York as a result of the European wars.
