AUSTRIA
PRACTICALLY
OUT Of WAR SO FAR AS
Her Heterogenous Army Is
Crushed; Germans Forced
Into Defensive,
Bj J. W. T. Mason.
(Former London Correspondent for ths
United Press.)
New York, Sept. 10. Ths Germans
were being forced today to assume a
more and more defensive position.
They are not yet as completely on
the defensive as were the allies during
their retirement from Belgium, but
their right and left, wings are ap
proaching that condition.
The reported abandonment of Lune
ville and the cessation of the attack
on Nancy Indicate that the French are
shoving back the invader's left, while
at . the other end of the. battle Una the
British are doing the same thing to
ine aaiser-s xigni.
German Center Zs Holding.
Ths German center is holding, but la
unable to advance. . The center Is at
Vltry le Francois, 45 miles southeast
of the deserted French stronghold of
Rbelms Probably the allies are trying
to drive the Germans into Rheims. hop
ing they may fall into such a trap as
Caught the allied forces In Maubeuge.
It . would be bitter Irony for the Ger
mans if a considerable part of their
army should be compelled to take
refuge In one of the deserted French
fortresses and then be forced to sur
render. This possibility is not remote, tor

man retreat would be . toward the
Rheims-Vltry Is Franools line of hills.
Any other course- would be toward isolation.
Evidences of the extent of the dis
aster the Austrian have suffered tn
Galicia are accumulating dally, and It
is almost certain that Germany can
count on no effective Austrian help to
prolong its own campaign.
Austria Out of the War.
The Austrian army was crumpled
in the first clash even more quickly
than the Germans hoped the French
would be. That this was due to an
extraordinary strategic or tactical abil
ity of the Russians' part Is disproved
by the previous collapse of the csars
first offensive in east Prussia. The
Austrian defeats undoubtedly were at
tributable to the country's own In
herent weakness as a nation of many
races, and of too many different Ideals
and sympathies.
The Austrian soldier now in the
field against the Russian speak a
dozen different languages. Yet they
are largely co'mmanded by officers of
German race, not by men speaking their
own various tongues. They have been
taught about 100 German words of
command, which they understand as
trained troops distinguish bugle calls.
Except for this vocabulary there Is
no tie between officers and men. The
fighting power of the Austrlans conse
quently is now proving Itself the low
est in Jsurope.

RUSHED BY
Thousands of Troops Head
ing East Pass Through
Brandon, Manitoba.
According to a letter received In
Portland recently from Brandon, Man
itoba, thousands of Russian and In
dian soldiers have passed eastward
through that town over, the main line
of the Canadian Pacific.
W. W. Metzger, president of the
Metsger-Danlels company, and secre
tary and business manager of the Port
land baseball club! saw the letter in
question, which was written to his
former partner In .the manufacture of
magneto chargers. .
"I have every reason to believe that
the facts given in the letter. were cor
rect," said Mr. Metsger this mornlne.
"but it certainly is a mystery how the
troops were landed In British Colum
bia from Aslatlo porta without the fact
becoming known to - the public. The
writer of the letter stated, that troop
train crowded with men were passing
through Brandon for a couple of days
at the rate of one every 15 minutes."
It is consldred probable that th
troop were landed from transports at
some port on the British Columbia
coast. Seemingly substantiating; a
movement of some kind in northern
waters In the fact the Rainbow and
other British ships in the Pacific re
cently moved north from California
waters, probably for the purpose of
eonvoyjng transports , to the Canadian
mainland.

Settlement of some sort has been
reached between George F. Heusner
and the Portland Railway, Ught
Power company, the detail of which
hav not been given out, and as, a re
sult the 9200,000 libel suit brought by
Heusner in which th company was
Involved was .dismissed this morning
by Circuit Judge McOlnn and th 997,-
600 suit by the comnanr aaainat
Heusner resulting from the prepara
tion for laying a third rail on Broad
way and the Broadway bridge will be
dismissed by Judge Cleeton. It 1 be
lieved that Heusner has disposed of
his Interest In the third rail proposi
tion and that others win pay the rail
way company for its work in prepar
ing xor tne installation.
In addition to dismissing the libel
suit Heusner took voluntary -non-suits
respecting Thomas Boott Brooke, E.
Henry Werame, E. T. Ames and J. C
Beck, who were named In th libel
suit as defendants. This procedure
doe not exclude further litigation
against the four men. but Attorney
Huntington of th firm of Huntington
& Wilson, representing Mr. Heusner,
said that no further action will be
taken against them.
Th libel suit grew out of the
fight made against the franchise
sought by Heusner at the city election
In 1913, in which he asked the neoDle
for franchise covering Broadway, the
Broadway bridge and other streets for
a standard guage lnterurban line. The
speclflo libel dealt with a cartoon dis
playing two hands, one with a bag of
gold and the other grabbing the bridge
and street involved in the franchise,
indictments based on this cartoon
were drawn by a grand Jury, headed
by T. A. Ketchum as foreman, against
the four men sued in the civil action,
and T. A. Linthioum, who has since
died, the Empress and Pantages thea
ter companies and J. A. Johnson. These
are still pending, as Circuit Judge
McGinn ordered that they go before
a jury.
xn answer to the street car com
panys suit Heusner alleged that the
company did everything possible to
delay him and to binder the securing

Earnest Cooperation,
(United Press Leased 'Wire.)
Washington, Sept. . 10 President
Wilson this afternoon agreed to call
the public attention to Imperative
financial needs of the railroad, a re
quested by railroad official yester
day. He agreed that tbe present emer
gency was extraordinary but Insisted
that he did not entertain any anxiety
except general anxiety caused by the
unprecedented situation In the world's
money markets."
The Dresident today wrote Prank
Trumbull, chairman of th board of
director of th Chesapeake and Ohio
railroad, a follows:
xou ask m to call th attention
of the country to the imperative need
of railway credit being sustained, that
tne rauroau d neiped in every possi
ble way, whether by private coopera
tive errort or hy aotlon. wher
ever feasible, of governmental
agendas, and ' Z am glad to do
so, because Z think the need is
reel. I am confident there will be
active and earnest cooperation In this
matter, perhaps the one common inter
est in our whole Industrial life,'
i -undoubtedly men In and eat of
official positions will appreciate what
i involved and will lend aid heartily
wherever It Is possible for them to
lend It."
! President Wilson's letter was re
garded here as partially approving the
railroads requests for higher rates If
the Interstate Commerce commission
deems the requests well founded.
