(Hy Associated Press to Coos Hay Tlnios.)
BERLIN, Sept, 4, (By wireless to Associated Press via
Sayville, L, I,) Berlin is prominently decked with flags, Con
fidence prevails that nothing can stay the victorious advance
of tlio Western armies, Morhat, Tageblatt's military expert,
expects the armies of Duke Albrecht and tho Crown Prince
will soon reach Chalons and Verdun, which can easily be mas
tered without delaying the'advance,
These towns have lost their strategic importance, Touland
Epinal, tho capital of the department of Vosges, may delay the
armies of Prince Rupprecht and General von Horringen, but
this is unimportant, Raids in Upper Alsaco are to be oxpected
while Belfort is in French .hands, but this is without signifi
cance as far as tho general result is concerned,
It is now revealed that the Austrian motor batteries, each
consisting of 12-inch guns mounted in autos, havo been co
operating with the German heavy artillery in the reduction of
the Northern fortresses, The manning and accuracy of those
batteries is highly praised,

(Hy Associated Press to Coos Hay Times.)
LONDON', Sept, 4, Reference to the titanic struggle be
iween the Germans under Crown Prince Frederick William
and the French forces which occurred between Rholms and
Verdun Wednesday is made today from Berlin,
If the Berlin statement proves correct that three-quarters
of a million troops were fighting in that region Wednesday in
"the greatest battle of history," it would explain happenings
in the western field to bring traops to anything like 750,000
Enormous French forces must have been concentrated at the
expense of the French left, where the Germans have been
making progress with their brilliant dash on Paris, The bat
tie along the Rheims-Verdun line claimed in a Berlin message
as a victory for the Crown Prince, who is reported to have
had the assistance of Emperor William, who was present,
