ernmost Point of Third
Lino ' of Defenses.
YXINDON. Sept. 3. Grodno, the last
fortress to hold out In the Russian sec
ond line of defense, has been captured
by the Germans under Field Marshal
von Hindenburg after a terrific battle
that was continued through the streets
of the city, which has a population of
4 0.000.
Further advances by the army in the
extreme north are reported also, the
Germans having reached a point only
40 miles from Riga.
Riga is the northern extremiy of the
Russian third line of defense, and a
desperate defense is likely to be made
by the Czar's forces to prevent the Ger-
mans capturing this important seaport.

Regarding other operations In the
east the German War Office announce
ment says:
"Field Marshal von Hindenburg's

ward and west of Vilna. The Russians
tried to oppose our advance, but failed.

"More than 3000 Russians, as well as
one cannon and 18 machine guns,

"The army of Prince Leopold of Ba

mander, at Brest-Litovsk, as hence
forth the armies of the two- tbmman:

a short distance down the banks of a
canal, I was ordered to one side. By
this time several other members of
the gang had Joined the first-comers.
"Smith called out. 'Good-bye, Dodd,
if 1 don't see you asaln.' Then he and
Donaldson were led off into the brush
They were soon lost to my view, but I
heard rifle shots. Evidently Donald
son tried to run, for his body was
found 80 feet from Smith's.
"That I did not meet Donaldson's
and Smith's fate, I believe, was due
tS the fact that the Mexican with the
appearance of an officer told his com
panions I had once loaned him $10.
Then myiown Mexicans interceded, say
ing 1 was a German.
American Troops Rescue
"Finally we took up the march again
through the brush. About 4 o'clock
yesterday afternoon the advance guard
began firing. Our guards ran forward
to Join them. Two of my Mexican
workmen and myself ran back through '
the brush.
"Not a shot was fired at us. We
soon met a company of United States
infantry and were safe."
Quick retribution apparently is being
meted out to the band which early yes
terday burned a trestle north of
Brownsville and tortured and murdered
two Americans.
At Fort Brown, It was said today In
fantry and cavalry would remain In
the field until the bandits are cap
tured or killed.
River Is Patrolled.
The body of Earl Donaldson will be
sent to his former home in Montgomery,
Mo., for burial. Smith's body will be
buried at San Benito.
Spread out in a close cordon which
left no foot of the International
boundary unpatrolled, the border guards
were ready to shoot on sight if the 15
remaining members of the band made
an effort to ford the swollen Rio Grande
to Mexico and safety.
In addition to the soldiers, there
were hundreds of citizens headed by
Texas Rangers, who pursue the trail of
the Mexicans to avenge the thefts of
cattle, burned barns, terrified women
and the deaths of half a dozen United
States citizens.
The tactics of the Mexicans yesterday
led Army officers to believe that this
band has been responsible for -much of
the outlawry of the past several weeks
in the border counties. First burning
a railroad trestle, the bandits yester
day proceeded to make away with a
number of ranchers' horses, burned an
irrigation pump station and an auto
mobile 12 miles north of here, and
capped the day with the murder of the
Americans.

the crew, were lost on a British trans
port which has been sunk by a mine
off the entrance to the Dardanelles,
according to the Oversees News Agency,

The British transport Royal Edward
was sunk August, 11 in the Aegean Sea
by a German submarine, according to
an announcement made August 17 by
the London admiralty. Six hundred of
the 1570 troops and crew were saved.
It is not certain whether the two an
nouncements refer to the same trans
port, as the Sofia dispatch does not
give the date of the sinking.
The Cologne Gazette publishes sta
tistics showing that the losses to Brit

minimum amount to 4H per cent of
the whole tonnage, says the Overseas

LOST DAUGHTER FIGHTS
LATE JOHX M. KEITH'S HOXEY
YET IS SOUGHT.
New Will Filed by Woman Who As
erta She's Offspring of Former
Oil Operator In So tit I.
SAN FRANCISCO. Sep. 8. A new
will, alleged to have been made by
the late John M. Keith, formerly an
oil operator at Bakersfield, seven
days before his death here April 27,
1914, was filed today In the Superior
Court. By its terms Mrs. Louise Thom
son, of Los Angeles, who recently an
nounced she was the lost daughter of
Keith, was bequeathed the entire es
tate, appraised at $631,000, except $5,
"to anyone claiming any interest in
my estate."
The will was filed by attorneys for
Mrs. Thomson. Dr. Sarah J. Tedford,
of Los Angeles, was named as execu
trix without bonds or restrictions.
Mrs. Tedford Is a sister-in-law of Mrs.
Thomson.
Under the terms of a will previously
filed for probate, Mrs. Frank W. Wake
field, formerly Mrs. Edith Sprcckels,
was left $50,000, as also was J. J.
Mack, named as executor of the wilL
Mrs. Thomson, through her attor
neys, recently offered objection to dis
tribution of the estate and alleged
that she was the daughter of Keith.
She said she and her father were sep
arated when shipwrecked on the Alas
ka coast 30 years ago, and that she
lived for 15 years In an Eskimo vil
lage and learned that her father was
alive only through newspaper notices
of his death.
Objection to distribution of tne es
tate also was file-l by the regents of
the University of California upon the
allegation that Keith pledged $150,
000 to the university, of which he paid
but $500C and made no provision for
payment of the rest In his will.

Whether Great Britain could furnish

This raised a Question: Would the

of South American governments; and
to go further, would such loans be
sanctioned where high-grade South
American railway bonds were offered
as collateral? -

Today's recoveries in rates was at
tributed by leading bankers chiefly to
a normal return to real value from

SIGNS HOPEFUL IX LOXDOS
leading Financial Interests Plan
Remedies for Differences.
LONDON, Sept. 3. Large American
financial houses in London, such as
Morgan, Grenfell & Co.. the Farmers"
Loan & Trust Company of New York,
and the Equitable Trust Company of
e lork. were highly gratified at
today's upward bound in exchange,
which they construed as indicating
that the recent decline had reached the
bottom point and tnat conditions now
were; likely to improve.
The consensus of opinion was that
the suddenness of the fall and the re
covery clearly showed the drop was
the result of speculation rather than
of any deep-seated evil in financial
conditions.
It developed today that daily ses
sions have been held of late by repre
sentatives of leading financial inter
ests with a view to formulating reme
dies for exchange differences, but these
were discontinued on the sailing of the
British commissioners for New York,
as future remedies are largely com
mitted to their care.
The manager of the Equitable Trust
Company pointed out today that the
recent heavy decline in rates was large
ly on paper, as people had stopped do
ing business and virtually no sales had
occurred during the depression.
While expressing hope for a steady
improvement, he said he considered it
premature to assert that thiB was now
assured, as no one was able to tell in
advance, . ;
The managers of the Farmers' 'Loan
& Trust Company said that one of the
main contributing causes of today's
recovery in rates was that people out
side the speculating class had con
cluded to defer payments until the sit
uation had improved and this caused
such a falling of business at low rates
that they moved upward to a level
which would attract business. He and
the other best informed authorities ex
pressed the belief that the worst of
the depression had passed and that
conditions would improve steadily. All
said they look forward.' hopefully to
the arrival of the French and British
commissioners in New York -within a
few days, as- likely to produce an ad
justment of rates and the whole of the
financial intercourse between Europe
and America.
