GENIAL VON KLLCX
lis
Flimo by Ain.rtwn I'rwH Association.
General Von Kluck, commander of
th right wing of th Carman army
which Invaded Franc through Bel
glum. BRIEF WAR NEWS
During the past week tho German
followed up their capture of Antwerp
by occupying unopposed Ostend, a
tlelglsn port on the North Sea, near
where the German right wing and the
allies' left engaged In a struggle to
prevent Gorman occupation of French
ports, which would bring them nearer
to the Kngllsh coast.
The allied Hue In till region run
from a point on the coast which hu
not been disclosed. Arras I the
cetie of the most persistent fighting.
The German are trying to break
through to the Calais railway while
the French are attempting to push the
German front to the northeast.
The fighting has only bdgtin In this
district, however, for the flermans,
who would consider It a great ucces
to reach the coast of France, have
brought up strong reinforcement and
will strive with all their might to
achieve tl.l object
The sllle also can bring up rein
forcements both by sea and land and
have been doing o, which make It
certain that a great battle must be
fought before either side give ground.
The allies will be assisted by the
llrlllsh ships when the fighting
reaches a point near the coast.
Little definite new came during the
week .from the Vistula Klver, where
the Kusuiuns claim to have repulsed
a German attack. Whether or not the
German advance on Warsaw has been
permanently checked only tho future
can show. One version has It that
the Germans are prepurlng to winter
In Poland.
The Russian force In Onltcln and
alon, the Bust Prussian border are
reported to have been driven back
and placed on the defensive. They
have had to adopt waiting tactics,
white the main Slav armies contest
the threatened capture of Wursuw and
the occupation or the Vistula basin.
General von Illudenberg's success In
entrenching his army on Russian ter
ritory 150 miles from the German
frontier has eliminated during the
week the possibility that a Russian
offensive movement can be relied up
on to usslst the Immediate develop
ment of the campaign In France and
Belgium.
There have been guarded references
In tire Purls official announcements
during the week to an advance on
Met which Is the main defensive po
sition of the German left center. Met
seems to' have become nn objective
for the French general staff. A sud
den change In the direction of the al
lies' mnln rorees and an Invasion In
rorce of northern Lorraine are possi
ble developments of this week's, rec
onnnlHimccs along the Metis roads.
The South African rebellion, which
occurred early ltu tho week, is of
questionable' Importance. The British
government has acted with great
promptness In Insuring the assistance
of Portugese troops If the mutiny
should develop serious proportions.
That It will do sd in the face of thefl
pro-British sympathies of moHt of the
lloer government lundors Is Improb
able. The valuo of" tho naval encounters
of the week Is about equally divided.
Gorman submarines have sunk a Brit
ish and a Russian light cruiBer, and
British warshlpa have destroyed four
German torpodo boat destroyers.
Anti-German Riot Started in London,
London. Anti-German rioting In
Loudon caused the destruction of a

the Doptford borough and In Old Kent
rond. In the former district several
stores were attacked and sot afire.

London. An official report by Gen
eral French, commanding the British
expeditionary force, gives the total of
British killed, wounded and missing
from September 12 to October 8 aB

GIGANTIC BATTLE
ON EASTERN WING
Germans Endeaver to Break
Through to Paris By Way (
of Seacoast.
Pari. A gigantic battle of startl
Ing magnitude and great Importance
1 being waged with desperate energy
in a field of vast proportion along Ir
regular line Just acros the border
In Belgium. Th Germans have burled
an enormous force against the allies
French, British and Belgian troop
who are massed on a front from Ar
oientier past Lille, to Ypre and then
to the sea. It I the blow which ba
been threatened since the German
menace of a new drive on Pari by
wuy of the seacoast became an ever
present bogy to Parisian. The but
tle Is being fought within 100 mile of
London a the crow flies.
Generally speaking, the fighting of
the' most desperate character Is con
fined to the limit of the quadrangle
described by Ypre, Monln, Ostend
and a point on the seacoast between
Nleuport and the Belgian border.
What In previous war would
have been culled great battle
were fought on the eastern wing of
the fighting line stretching from the
Belgian coast to Switzerland.
In thl great battle of nations, bow
ever, these rights are regarded merely
a Incident. Tlie righting always has
been of the most forceful nature In
this district, owing to the strenuous
effort of the Germane to obtain pos
sesslon of the strong fortresses of Ver
dun, Toul and Kplnal In order to open
a way from Metz Into France.
St. Die, on the Meurthe, 32 miles
northeast of Kplnal, waa the center or
the attacks, which resulted In a re
pulse for the German with beavy
casual tie.
BRITISH SINK 4 DESTROYERS
Admiralty Report On Officer and
Four Man Wounded.
Iondon. Four German destroyers,
were engaged and sunk off the
Dutch coast by a British cruiser and
four torpedo-boat destroyers.
According to an announcement
made by tho secretary of the British
Admiralty, the fjrltlnh vessels In the
action were the light cruiser Undaunt
ed end the torpedo-boat destroyers
Lance,' Lennon, Legion and Loyal.
Thus the British sailors have taken
speedy revenge for the sinking of the
British cruiser Uawke by a German
submarine.
The Admiralty announce that the
British losses In the engagement were
one officer and four men wounded.
The dnmnge to the British destroyers
wus slight.
German Submarine Attack a Surprise.
Aberdeen, Scotland. The attack on
the British cruiser Hawke, which wa
sunk by a German submarine, came as
a great surprise to those aboard the
cruiser, according to the survivors
who arrived here. Nothing was seen
to Indicate the presence of a subma
rine until after the explosion. The
Hawke sank In five minutes and hun
dreds of men, some or them In cork
Jackets and others hanging to pieces
or wreckage, were scattered about'in
the water.
DECISIVE BATTLE
IMMINENT IN EAST
Berlin, via The Hague and London.
Preparations are under way Tor a
decisive buttle in the eastern arena of
the war, where Austrian and German
armies have taken position along the
River Vistula and the River San and
are ready for eventualities.
The re-taking of Przemysl, as an
nounced from Austrian sources, has
permitted the unfolding of the power
of the Austrinns in the direction of
Lemberg and their advance In the
southern Carpathian mountains Is
menacing the extreme left whig of the
Russians.
Desperate fighting Is already going
on along the center of the two armies
on the bunks of the Vistula. This
action has been In a measure delayed
owing to the bad condition of the
rondB In Boutharn Poland and the
presence of sections of swampy land.
This condition bus made necessary
detours on the part of the Austrian
and German forces.
The Russian army Is east of the
Vistula. This fact Is regarded In Ber
lin as making Kb advance and the
general management of the campaign
a difficult matter, and at the- same
time unfavorable.
, Battle on at Belfort.
Berlin. According to a telegram
from Zurich received by the Berul-of-flclal
Cologne Gazette, heavy German
mortars have been placed east of the
fortress of Belfort, where the fighting
already has begun. The Germans o
far are gaining ground, though slowly.
