BATTLE FRONT TO
INSPECT
FORCES
PAH1S, Oct. Ti, 7:'20 n. in. -When
the lon-dmuti-out battle in the
north was returned today there ww
a feeling in many o,unrler that de
cisive developments wcrr triunincnt.
Ooti'.ennenlly this nftornonn'K lute
ment of tho war office on tho lialtle
of the Aisuc, nniiiu in the history of
battles wns numteil with the greatest
interest. .
While the French rcalire thai tho
lint tie luts not lccn won, it does not
ncciii to many of tlieui that it can
now he lost. If the allies1 win, no
doubt is felt that thev will pav for
it, the snerifiee on both s'ule.s already
bcinj; great. The tone of the official
communications have furnished tho
reason'? for the hope on the part of
the rrciich, although announcement
of the imI of President Poinenre to
uie iront was an additional lactor
for the confidence and optimism felt
in ropnrd to the intense struggle. I li
notion is generally commented on
indieatinjr that success is nt hand.
Despite the hope of the French, the
military critic, Lieutenant Colonel
Itnussct, declares the battle sil din
Inst for some time, pointing out that
modem encounters last now as lone
ns cerlntn conditions iormerlv did.
In 1S.V.) the situation was settled in
two mouths, while in 1870 it took
thirteen weeks, the ffchtiinr after Se
dan and Mctz beiin; merely a contest
for honor.
In the furious fielding now goiii"
on. Lieutenant Colonel Kousset sins,
neither adversary can claim what Xa
)M)leon called "the result."

LONDON, Oct. 5, I:3i a. m.
The correspondent of the Times nt
Uordcaux, Commenting on tho battle
In northern France, says: "The time
has not yet come to reveal tho com
position of the allies' left which is
now striking up toward the Delgian
frontier, but when tho veil hiding
the movement In tho neighborhood of
Amiens is drawn an ay It will be
seen what a potent factor the French
railway service has been In tho bat
tles of Northern France."
LONDON, Oct. ,., 10:10 11. m.- A
dispatch to tho Star from Home,
spenkiiur of the Hussian invasion of
Hungary, says;
"Having eaptuicd all the Carpath
ian passes, the KiissinHs lurto com
menced the invasion of Hungary, ad
vancing to the south, nnd they have
occupied Hossjrumeo. Then the eos
snvks effected a daring coup. They
crossed the river and cut the railway
nt Czigvt, thus isolating the remain
der of Hungary."
HO.MK. via Paris, Oct. fi. 7:18 a.
in. News from Itussiim headquar
ters says the invasion of Hungary
through the Carpathians has two ob
jects. The first is to insure the left
Hank of the lhi-sinn army operating
against Prremysl nnd along the San
river, nnd second, to open n new field
of action in the vnst Hungarian
plains, where it can frighten the pop
ulation, distuth the drilling of Hun
garian reservists and recruits nnd
cut the railway communications, he
sides freely feeding an important
portion of the army from the 10
sources of the country.
It is recalled that diirimr the Kus.
rdnn-Turkish wur of 1877 nn expedi
tion commanded by (icucnil (toconrki
and mostly eomposed of cavalry, did
the same thing, crossing the Italkau
mountains nnd entering eastern tin-mania.

Germans on Defensive
III tho eastern theater of the war
the Germans would npjear, accord
ing to hiiHish observers, to he con
templating a neriod of defense before
undertaking the offemdve. Thev are
busily engaged between Thorn, in
east Prussia, nnd Galicia, in en
trenching themselves tiyuiimt the
Russinn hosts gathering on the other
side of the frontier. It is calculated
that there are no fewer than four
million fighting in this eastern arena,
and a repetition of tho long and ard
uous siege battles, which have been
niich a feature of tho struggle in
France, seems u certainly.
The Russians continue to push
eastward on Cracow, evidently with
tho hope of getting thence Jo Bres-
lau, and they go on stretching their
tentacles out boutlnvurd toward Budu
Pest.
