FROM TUESDAY’S DAILY
Hague, Sept. 22—After being
victorious at Lyek, the German
forces are now pushing vig
orously into the southwestern
part of the Russian territory
presumably for the purpose of
checking the coming troops of
the Czar. Several regiments
are now on their way to the
scene of the recent conflicts.
Rome. Sept. 22—As there has
been a most decided Anti-Ger
man feeling prevalent during
the past week, precautionary
methods were taken today to
guard the German embassy by
the placing of troops about ih*
buildings and grounds. The
ambassador is practically con
fined within the inclosures of
the building and none is admit
ted unless he brings proper cre
dentials.
London. Sept. 22—'When the
shells from the Germ i forces
struck the build r.gs in Rheims
Sunday night fire started ar.J
has been burning ever since and;
the citizens -and soldiers have
been unable to check it. The
fire spread from street to street
until the greater portion of th~
town is in ruins. The German;
however, are still unable to take,
the city. Before the confiagra-l
tion ends it is expected that the
entire city will be in ashe-.
Rheims has ben the mecea for
American tourists and should
they ever return it is doubted
if they will ever recognize the
once beautiful town.
London. Sept. 22—Later— In
3n official report it is state-!
that the entire population of:
;he city of Rheims has been re
pulsed, but before doing so the
city was practically in ruins. AH
the batteries on both sides have
been exceedingly active on the
firing line. The German art 1
lery, which has been masked inj
the woods has been wreaking:
terrific slaughter. There seems;
to be nothing but a victory for;
the German forces in sight.
Berlin. Sept. 22—Terrific hav
ec has been wrought in the bat
tle along the River A.sne. and it.
is stated that the losses have
been greater than in any prev
- . - • ’• - -
tory. The war offi v stated
that the Germans are holding
their own. but at a terrible priced
of men’s !ive; and the destruc
tion of property.
Paris. Sept. 22—The French
left wing being p.ite.J against!
‘he German force; a-a re hp -;
in2 the hr.r.' *h- _
Ion? the A.-me river.
Washington. Sept. 22—Pres
ident Wilson states there is
little hope of bringing about
peace between the foreign na-J
terns at this time, tut ts wait
ing for the opportune moment
when he will launch forth his
v od office on behalf of the!
warring nations. Hints of!
peace proposals from the Kaiser
h ve not materialized so far as<
the diplomat.: service can see.;
He has let the ambassadors]
-tationed here, know that hej
exert hi- ;a fluence when-.
■ ■ any of the foreign nations]
ie they wish to ;eek nego- >
aliens tworad the ending ot j
the war.
v enna. Sep1,. 22—It i- an
" ed that the German battle;
° now- in Galicia was never
- ger and will be continued;
Ke strengthened by the ar-j
•! of fresh troops from the!
' or of Germany. Ia order
?ain an advantage on the
'"Thting line, the Austrians re
-*“d ' ’y a short distan-e ac-1
- t> the explanation of-j
bv h e war office. The!
> strians are entrenched sn a
tfrosger position than any they
heretofore held.
' !-. Sept, 22—Adv e
‘ '*’v- been brought in by the!
'-’e’-e. showing that the!
-..'mans are retreating at many
' points, and it is believed they
1 have received instructions from
Beilin to retire. The main
force has already been moving
for the past few days in order
| to defend the Russian frontier.
By the withdrawal of the maiu
, forces there now remains only
two hundred thousand men to
defend :he fortified lines. It
I ;s believed that the Germans
| have not a sufficient force left
at the fortified places to hold
them when reinforcements,
which are being brought from
without Europe are borugbt in
to action.
London Sep*. 22—The Red
Gross steamer which was fit
ted out in America is expected
to reach here tomorrow. Among
the many doctors and nurses
making up the party, there are
also several men along. It
is expected that they will be
sent to the places where the
fighting is now going on.
London. Sept. 22—It is admit
ted by the war office that the
Allies have sustained losses
which are staggering. 'VYhai
victories they have won has cost
the Allied forces such tremen
duos 1. --es that is seems almost
in credible how the war can
be continued very long. The
situation - pronounced a- be
ing favorable toward the Allied
forces.
Paris. Sept. 22—It is reported
that King George of Servia
while leading a baftilion into bat
tie wa? wounded. No confir
mation of thi« report could be
had from the headquarters
when inquiries were made.
London. Sept. 22—After the
battie'on Craonne heights there
was a discrimination in the bur
ial of the dead, as the French
an j English were given a Chirs
tian burial, while those of the
German forces were burned.
No reason was given for this
discrimination in the burial of
the* dead.
London Sept. 22—Command?r
Gene" i Beyers, who is in com
mand o: the British South
Afri an forces has tendered his
resigns* an as the policy adopt
ed by ‘he British government in
V3d:ng the German colony has
not met with his approval. Gen
era! Beyers rendered gallant
services during the Boer war
and if was believed his loyalty
would remain throughout the
present conflict.
London. Sept. 22—The western
wing of the German army h^s
gain been driven back ten
miles, thus leaving the Allied
forces only a short distance be
fore they will be invading the
German Empire. This is what
Germany has been trying to
prevent for the past week er
more.
Nish. Sept. 22—The Austrians
have again been defeated near
Kronuparn as the Servians have
been 7-c-htng their forces to
the front most vigorously and
have been able to drive them be
yond the Brina river.
Ottawa. Sept. 22—British sub
jects have again -hown their
loyalty to their flag as the
troops requested of Canada have
responded far in excc-s of who*
was requeued. Thirtyone thou
sand soldiers s‘ari for Europe.
s-i-hough England only asked)
twenty one thousand at the out
-e*. The ranks are made up ofj
men from factories, mine
mills and the various profes
sions.
Rome. Sept. 22—The Pope in
the name of the Catholic
Church ha-; ordered an investi
gation of the burning of the
cathedral at Rheims, believing
that the destruction of the place
wa- unwarranted, inasmuch a
protect had been made against
‘he de-fruction of such a mag
nificent edifice.
