MAY CAUSE AUSTRIA
To SUE FOR PEACE

London, Sept. 11.-Exultant mes
sages from Petrograd and admissions
of disasters in Vienna indicate that
the long series of military misfortunes
marking the history of Austria Hun
gary are about to be capped with an
unparalleled debacle which may not
only open the road to Berlin for the
Russian armies but also may bring
Austria to sue for peace.
The armies in France and Belgium
seem as II pausing to watch the fate
full drama in Galicia, the outcome oil
which may have tremendous effect on
the plans of the invaders In the east
ern theater of war as well as upon
the allies in the West.
That Germany is uneasy under this
menace Is shown in news dispatches
from Belgium that the Germans are
rushing reinforcements southwark
The German force which has been
waiting outside of Ghent for the levy
of provisions demanded from that city
has left hurriedly in southeasterly
direction.

SAID GERMANS MAY
ARRIVE TOO LATE

London, Sept 1.-THE Times has
received the following message from
it's Petrograd correspondent:
II understand that German army
division proceeding along the banks
of the River vistula formed van
guard of the German forces hurrying
to relieve the hard pressed Austrians
and that these reinforcements are ad
vancing by way of Czenstochawa and
Kielce. Experienced observers here
believe that they will not arrive in
time.
II hear on excellent authority that
General Samsonoff's staff officers are
all safe, with the exception of one
killed Thus the story that Genera
Samsonoff and all his staff were killed
by German shells was evidentlA

NO DETAILS OF LOSS
OF BIG LINER OCEANIC

London, Sept. 1.-THE war Office
and the official press bureau are
strangely silent as to details of the
wreck of the White Star line grey
hound Oceanic off the north coast of
Scotland.
The statement merely said the big
liner was wrecked and a total loss
and that all officers and crew were
saved.
The cause of the sinking of the
ship, which had been taken over as a
naval reserve cruiser, is still a mys
terry here.
The Oceanic was up to 1899 the lar
gest ocean liner afioat. The vessel
was favorite with the late ]. Pier

MANY WOUNDED; FEW KILLED
French Report Says Loss of Life Ii
Not Heavy.

London. Sept 1.-THE Bordeaux
correspondent of the Exchange Tele-
graph company states that according
to statement made by a member Of
the health department in the ministry
of war the war is not resulting in a
very heavy loss of life.
"Of every hundred men placed hors
du combat only two are killed." this
official said "Our wounded are nu-
merous. but their injuries are gener-
ally slight, most men being hurt In the
arms or legs, and the wounds almost
invariably heal rapidly. Many OF
those wounded already have returned
to the front. However. our low NOR
tality rate may be attributed in part
to the poor aim of the Germans"
