TEUTONS HAVE DARING PLAN Heavy Forces Concentrate in Ef fort to Separate Russians From Roumanians Muscovites Are Defeated Jn , Galicia. TETROGRAD. Oct. 17, via London, Oct. 18. The whole of General Brussil off's front, from the district of Kovel to Roumania, presents an almost continu ous battle line, with large Russian and Austro-German forces constantly en gaged in attacks and counter-attacks, each side successfully defending its po sition, but making- no lasting progress against Its opponent. It has become evident that the inten tion or breaking- through the northern sector of General Brussiloff's line and recapturing Lutsk has been supple- merited, since Roumania's entrance into the war, by a more audacious plan a move at the extreme southern flank by the Austro-Germans in the hope of separating the Russian -armies from their new allies. , Teutons Have Darius: Plan. To this end the Austro-Germans have concentrated heavy forces at the'south ern tip of Bukowina, where the south ern flank of the Russians joins the northern flank of the Roumanians, and have begun an advance south of Dorna Watra. accompanying this with a vigor ous attack slighUy further north in the region of Korosmezo and Kirlibaba, and a parallel movement against the Roumanians in Transylvania. Thus far the drive of the Teutonic allies against the Roumanians has been more successful than that against the Russians, for while the former are re tiring toward their own frontier the Russians have not, as far as is known at present, been compelled to give way before the powerful offensive directed against them. The Austro-German movement, how ever, is still in its early stages and a tremendous struggle Is expected on this part of the front. Already the Russians have begun counter maneu vers, as is attested by the number of prisoners taken in the Kirlibaba re gion. Bayonets Often Vsed. Fierce fighting still continues south east of Vladimir-Volynski, in Volhynia and south of Brzezany, in Galicia. At these two points, covering respectively tha roads to Vladimir-Volynski and Lemberg a continuous battle is being carried on at close range, leading often to bayonet encounters, but without de cisive results. BERLIN, via London, Oct. 17. The Russians have suffered a heavy defeat In Galicia, the War Office announced today. Repeated attacks were repulsed and trenches on a front of one and one-fourth miles "were taken by the Austro-German forces. Nineteen hun dred prisoners and 10 machine guns were captured. LONDON, Oct. 17. "On both the northern and southwestern fronts of Russia." says Reuter's Petrograd cor respondent, "heavy rains and fogs are Impeding the operations, but the Rus sians are not giving the enemy a mo- ment's rest. Many trenches have been captured by hand grenade and bayonet attacks in the dark. Russians Capture Trenches. "The nervousness of the Germans at this style of fighting has been ex pressed in panicky bursts of resultless gunfire. The Russian attacks on the new German position of Sviniusky Jvorytniza, southeast of Vladimir Volhynski, resulted in the capture of first-line trenches on a wide front, de spite the concentration there by the Germans of some of their best regi ments. The Germans brought up rein forcements from neighboring sectors and fresh reserves. "Five counter attacks, accompanied by curtains of fire, were- delivered by the Germans, isolating the Russian trenches. In the fifth attack the Ger mans at some places reached the breastworks and threatened to break the Russian line. The Russian bay onets, however, were too deadly and the Germans renounced their attempts at the recapture of their old positions."

ATHENS SITUATION GRAVE (Continued From First Page.) streets of Athens swarmed with Greeks frantically cheering King Constantino and chanting the Greek national an them. Great crowds marched through the streets, thousands gathering in the neighborhood of the postoffice square. The War Minister, General Dracos, ordered out Greek troops and marines to guard every approach to the square and in order to prevent any clash be tween Greek civilians and the French who occupied that section, established a complete cordon about the section and took all precautions to avoid any incident capable of starting strife. It is impossible to predict whether trouble can be prevented throughout the night. The Greek government is fully alive to the fact that Greece's fate hangs on the prevention of further measures, on the part of the French commander. Earlier In the day a review by King Constantlne of sailors belonging to the vessels of the Greek navy, possession of which was taken by the entente al lies, was made the occasion of an Im mense royalist demonstration, crowds parading the streets hauling life-size portraits of the sovereign and wildly cheering for the monarch.

PEACE ARGUMENTS MADE President Extolled for Keeping -er ica Out of War by Eloquent Or ator Who Says This Is Not Time . for "Petty Faultfinding." Ex-Senator Charles A. Towns, of Minnesota, but now of New York, ad dressed an enthusiastic crowd of Demo crats .at the Baker.Theater. on Morri son street and Broadway, last night. It was an old-fashioned political speech, well delivered. He both "pointed with pride" and "viewed with alarm." He made the eagle scream and spread Old Glory to the proverbial oreeze. t He grew eloquent in describing the wonderful advancement achieved by the nation aurmg its brief existence, and painted a glowing picture of the tower. the prestige and the influence pos sessed by the United States. Misuse of Power Assailed. "But." he continued, "it Is ignoble to use that power .for selfish pur poses," and implied that- his political opponents were seeking to make such misuse or power. The Senator dwelt at length on the "peace record" of . President Wilson. and reviewed with considerable detail tne incidents leading- .up to the Euro pean war. Then he took ud a discus sion of the events following the beginning of hostilities and the part that the United States has played in the situation. "We are the trustees of succeeding generations," he declared, and added that on that account the duty of everv American citizen is to keep this coun try out or the war. The best, and only way, in fact, for the citizen, to exercise that duty, ac cording to Senator Towne. Is to vote for President Wilson. Petty Fault-Flndlnir Condemned. "This Is a poor time for petty fault finding," he said, and, while he didn't mention any names, his audience ap parently applied his reference to Can didate Hughes. He made repeated verbal thrusts at tho speech delivered here on Saturday night by ex-Senator Beveridge, Pro gressive leader, of Indiana. He made sarcastic comment on Beveridge's good natured ridicule of the idea that Presi dent Wilson has kept the country out of tho war. "Who kept Sweden out of the war. Beveridge asks." he shouted, pounding his open palm with his clinched fist. "I don't know," he replied, "but if I did, I'd vote for him for president of Sweden." President Fair, Speaker Says. He continued with the assertion that It has been difficult, indeed, to keep tne nation out or tne war, and main tained that the President has held the scales at an even balance between the warring nations. , "The best proof that he has been fair," ho went on, "Is that both sides in Kurope are dissatisfied. 1 "The President has been firm. Mr. Hughes says he wants to be firm and. like Tom Marshall, I want to know who are the other members of the firm. "And they say that it hasn't been hard to keep the country out of war," tie continued. Civil W Danicer Seen. "Well, it is hard enough for some Pres ldents to keep us out of war when the world is at peace. But war at this time would mean that we would have to take sides with one faction in Eu rope. Instantly we would arouse the hostility or the other faction "Do you know what that would mean? People sympathizing with the faction opposed to us would become embittered. It would be tantamount to civil war. Many parts of the country wouia nave to resort to martial law. The speaker viewed this situation with considerable alarm. He said that it is a matter of deep personal regret that the interests of a great political party should force It to threaten the peace and the poise of the Nation by aiming to overthrow the President at this critical juncture. "The man who will rock the Dartisan boat in times like this doesn't deserve tne protection of our flag, he proceed - ed, and strong. mil. , v a a uiiLru a u i 1 1 u Leaving Brnrk Critlrlaed. He compared the present political situation with an automobile with President Wilson at the wheel and the Republican party as the "smart aleck" who always tries to run tha machine from the rear seat. The Senator also entertained more or loss trepidation over the future in tegrity of the Supreme Court. It shat ters the faith of the people in the court when one of Its members deserts the bench and becomes a candidate for po litical office, he thought. "When Justice Hughes saw that a, movement was on foot - to nominate him," he asserted, "he should have said that under no circumstances would he have the office, even if it was given him. "But," and here he began to get reaay to point wun pride, "from a purely selfish, partisan standpoint I am glad that he was nominated. He is the easiest of the bunch to beat.. Hughes Charged With Silence. "He Is the only one who didn't stand for anything. Since his nomination, though, he has had to stand for nearly everything." He ridiculed the Republicans for con stantly parading the achievements of Abraham Lincoln before the voters as acts of their own. "It is a pity." he told his partisan audience, "to see the threadbare, worn out, discredited, out-of-Joint Republican party marching in the reflected glory of the martyred President. "Abraham Lincoln was elected Presi dent of the United States because of what he had said in opposition to the extension of slavery. The Republicans want to elect Hughes because he hadn't said anything." He plunged boldly into the Mexican situation and throughout his discus sion of this topio held to the view that President Wilson has attempted to con serve the interests of liberty and Jus tice, primarily for the people of Mexi co and incidentally for the world at large. He said that the trouble with the critics of the President's' Mexican policy is that they can't get the right perspective. They are looking at the foothills, when the President's plans are mountain-high, he said. "We are not going to nave war In Mexico merely to pull the chestnuts out of the fire for Hearst and Otis and the other big landowners down there." he Insisted. f Patience With Mexico Advocated. "We must be patient with Mexico and let her struggle along toward self-government. That is what the President has been doing." He attempted, too, to answer those 12 White Swan Bath tub Fountain Syringe Outfit. Will fit I An any faucet. Sp'iwlttj t uuid bynnge on sale for.

"Taft didn't recognize him." he as serted. "And when Wilson didn't rec ognise him it gave notice to all the other embryonic revolutionists in the smaller Latin-American republics that no man who overthrows a government of a neighboring country without the consent of the people governed can find recognition In this country. "Heretofore the Latin-American coun tries have been suspicious of our Mon roe Doctrine. Now they have confidence In the United States, and this confidence is born of their confidence in Wood row Wilson." The Senator repeatedly pointed with pride in reviewing the domestic policies of the Administration. Tariff Regarded mn o Ianue. He began with the tariff. He said, as a sort of preface to his subsequent remarks, that the tariff isn't really an Issue, albeit the Republicans try to make it one, since President Wilson has taken It out of politics by pavinx the way for appointment of a tariff commission. "It's a Joke," came from a voice in the audience. 'M'ou're right," replied the speaker. "There ain't no such animal." He presented all the stock Demo cratic campaign arguments that the Republicans have been the principal beneficiaries of a hlsh protectivev tar I IT and that they, for that reason, are seek ing to continue it. In further reply to Senator Bever Idsro's recent speech in favor of the Republican tariff policies he quoted from an article appearing In a maga zine a few months ago. over Bever idKe'n own signature, advocating a tariff commission similar to the one that the speaker said President Wilson now plans to organize. The crowd laughed at this offhand disposal of the Beveridge tariff argument. "Now what becomes of your tariff question?" queried the speaker with evident glee. "It's a joke." came from the same voice in the audience. Krdcral Reserve Art Applauded. In telling how Wilson has saved the country from actual and potential linanclal disaster by passing the Fed eral reserve act he began to view with alarm again He was alarmed lest the control of , the Government pass into the hands of i liic ivrLtuuiK niin. wnu. di courHfl. accara. ing to his notion, would upset the bene ficial provisions of the new law and turn the Nation's financial affairs into the clutches- of the corrupting powers of Wall street. "I don't say that Hughes would re peal the Federal reserve act." he said, by way of qualifying his statement. "But the fellows on Wall street who supply the Republican campaign funds would. He poured out prodigious praise toward the president for the enactment of the rural credits law, which, too, he said. Wall street would like to have re pealed. Appeal Made to Moose. The Senator wound up his speech with an earnest appeal to the Progres sives and all who supported the Pro gressive ticket four years ago to vote for Wilson this year. He said that the President has sponsored all. or nearly all. the progressive legislation demand ed by the Progressive party in 1912. By way of stirring his Democratic listeners be predicted that Wilson and Marshall will be re-elected with an overwhelming vote. "If the reports that I hear are true." he toM them, "Hughes won't get a sin r HOTEL STEQfiB SAN Caarj; Street, HtsC oK Union Square European Plan $1.50 a da; op Brealdasi60c Lunch 60c Dinner $1.00 Most Famous Meals In Ihe United States Kew steel and concrete strnctcre.
