PARIS, August 26. Terrific fight
ing rages all along France's eastern
frontier. HeavieBt Is at Meubeuge,
Givet, Montmedy and Luneville. The
crown prince said to be in command
of Kaiser's soldiers. They'are charg
ing desperately in face of a hurricane
of shrapnel and rifle balls. The
slaughter Is frightful. In places Ger
man corpses are piled breast deep. It
is simply a renewal of the struggle
which marked the German advance
westward. Tuesday's lull but gave
the combatants a breathing spell.
The refreshed Germans came on even
more savagely. Paris is their goal.
PARIS. August 26. Following the
deep gloom caused by the reverse
The Allies suffered at the hands of
the Germans Tuesday, Paris is wild
with joy today over the reports of
successes by Allies in a mighty bat
tle on the Belgian frontier. The Al
lies are more than holding the gate
way to Paris. They repulsed the
Germans at Maubeuge and Givet
slaughtering them wholesale and
pushing their own lines back into
Belgium. The fight along Lorraine
frontier is reported as going north
against the Germans.
LOXDOX, August 26. Reinforced,
the Germans in Belgium and along
the French frontier are again attack
ing The Allies furiously. Fall of Os
tend expected shortly. This will
menace Great Britain directly. Ger
mans believed to contemplate mount
ing big guns to resist naval attacks
and making Ostend the base for raid
ing British Isles by dirigibles. Brit
ish reinforcements being rushed to
continent.
PEKIN, August 26. Japanese
troops landed on Shantung Peninsula
close to Kiao Chau Bay. Landing
effected under cover of bombard
ment by British cruisers. Forts re
plied vigorously, damaging ships and
killing ten men..
Reports from the European war
are appalling. Since the last issue
of this paper Brussels has fallen to
the Germans, who demand $40,000,
000 was tax. The Belgian capital is
moved to Antwerp. Since Saturday
along the French frontier in a zigzag
line 150 miles long from Mons to Mo
selle the Germans have stood off the
French and British and gradually
gained ground in four days' fighting.
The Allies lost heavily and great gaps
were torn through the German front
only to fill quickly with fresh men.
The tide of battle swung to the Allies
today.
Russia is pouring troops across the
German border and Cossacks have
crushed the Austrian frontier cav
alry. Russian soldiers hold a strip
fifty miles wide inside the German
border with Berlin as their goal.
German forts oppose their progress
and can stand them off for months
while German soldiers fight on to
ward Paris. Four towns in east Prus
sia are in the bands of the czar's
troops, which cut the twentieth Ger
man army corps to pieces. ....
A Paris dispatch Monday sajs more
casualties than in any other battle
of history are already piled up. The
third day of the conflict showed
points where The Allies' defensive
walls were broken, but reinforce
ments were rushed forward ..and in
variably filled the gaps. In places
the German infantry was compelled
to retire. The Germans were enor
mously strong. Experts declare there
are a million reserves behind the
kaiser's three main armies. ..
London dispatches on Tuesday con
firmed the fall of Namur and said:
"This success toy the Germans is re-1
garded as ending all hope of a speedy
termination of the war. It is be
lieved the British will be compelled
to send every, available soldier in the
country to help the allied forces al
ready in the field. The British loss
es are enormous. A government of
ficial says: "When it becomes known
what both sides have suffered, the
world will be appalled."
Japan declared war Sunday on
Germany and is operating against the
Germans in their sphere of influence
in China about Kiao Chau and Tsing
Tchau. Austria has declared war on
Japan. A Tuesday dispatch from
Tokio says Japanese, British, French
and Russian warships are blockading
Tsing Tchau an dare taking every
precaution against floating mines. It
is stated on good authority that more
than ten thousand mines obstruct the
entrance to the harbor. The German
garrison, seven thousand strong,
showed plainly a determination to re
sist. Investigation has proved that
the land defenses are really formidable.

Alaskan Steamer
Rammed By Liner
The Alaskan steamer Admiral
Sampson was rammed by the Can
adian Pacific liner Princess Victoria
eighteen miles from Seattle at six
five this morning and sank in ten
minutes. Three passengers and eight
members of the crew, including Cap
tain Z. A. Moore, were lost. A deep
gash was torn in the Sampson both
above and below the water line and
the ship was set afire. The collision
was due to a dense fog.
Practically all the passengers were
asleep, but the captain took charge
of the rescue work and boats were
promptly lowered and ropes thrown
out. The last seen of Captain Moore
he was raising his hand as though
saying "Good-bye" as the ship was
swallowed up by the sea. The pas
sengers drowned were Mrs. Ed Ban
bury, G. V. Bryant, Eddie Bracken.
The crew's dead are Captain Moore,
A. Sater, C. Marquette, Miss Camp
