by the enemy between Paris, Meaux

had advanced, but stronger hostile
columns came to the assistance of the
allies and the enemy Won the battle,
compelling the German troops to re-
tire. Fifty guns were captured by the
allies and some thousands of men
made prisoners" ~

London.-While the latest official
statements give few details of the
great battle which is being waged In
France and in which approximately
100000 men are engaged, it seems
apparent that the German forces are
still falling back, from the announce
ment that the allies have gained about
thirty-seven miles of territory in their
advance, an increase of twelve in the
operations during the last twenty-four
hours. Both British and French
troops have crossed the River Marne,
the British capturing men and guns.

PUEsLoAN SLAIN FROM AMBUSH.
Shot and Killed While on Way to
Work at Midnight.

Pueblo.-Alex.. Howard, engineer at
the Pueblo smelter, was shot and
killed from ambush when he was on
his way to work at midnight. A search
ing party found his body lying beneath
the Spring street viaduct. One bullet
penetrated his head and the other
pierced his heart. People living near
the scene said they remembered hear
ing two shots fired there at midnight,
but they paid no attention to them
The search only originated when How
ard failed to report for work and was
found to have left his boarding house
on D street at the regular time.
Several dollars in change and gold
watch discredited the robbery motive
and the police are working on the the
ory that jealousy caused the shooting.
Howard is said to have been in love
with an Austrian woman.

Take 10000 Prisoners.

Petrograd. The news Monday
seems to confirm the Russian reports
that the Russians have inflicted an
other crushing defeat on the Austrians
who, on the right, were supported by
some German divisions.
By the capture OF Tomaszow, the
Russians drove a wedge between the
Austrian army which had invaded Po-
land as far as Opole, Krasnostav and
Zamosc and the army which they de-
feated at Lemberg, which, although it
lost heavily in killed, wounded, pris-
oners and guns, managed to reform to
some extent and undertake the often
sive.
Frightful losses have been suffered
by the Austrians, according to the re-
ports.
The Germans, who reinforced the
Austrians, according to latest advices,
shared in the defeat. They are trying
to reach the fortress at Przemysl, and
the rear guard is endeavoring to keep
off the Russian cavalry which is pur-
suing them.
Austria had in Poland and Galicia
an army estimated at 100000 men,
with $500 guns. At Lemberg, Aus
tria lost many thousands of men in
killed, wounded and prisoners.
1t is now stated, although not Off
cially, that the total number Of pris-
oners amounts to 100000, and that a

Summary Of Eveuts.)

The last seven days have been
a week Of trouble for Germany.
Her army of western invasion,
after driving the French British
army from the Belgian frontier
to a point within thirty miles of
Paris, has been driven back fifty
miles by the allies. The losses
have been the heaviest, during
this period, in the history of civil
lied warfare.
After beating the Austrians in
Cheyenne record., 1914-09-17

a series of decisive battles and in
vesting two northern provinces,
the Russian army has made fur
ther advance into German East
Prussia. Reports say the forti-
fled city of Konigsberg has been
destroyed by the Russians. The
eastern German army is being
considerably re-enforced by many
army corps from the west, how
ever, and the Slav invasion of the
Fatherland is being seriously i'm
peded.
All Sides Call Reserves.
For more than a week battle has
been raging steadily along a 120-mile
line forming crescent northwest,
north and northeast of Paris. A mil
lion and a half men are engaged on
each side. The Germans are calling
upon their reserve forces in Belgium
and the French and British are being
constantly REINFORCED with fresh men
from the south of France and Eng
land.
That the Germans have been re-
treating steadily for several days is
not an indication that they are beaten.
They advanced with such rapidity that
their lines of communication with
their bases of supplies were naturally
weak. When attacked vigorously with
the full weight of the allied army in
both front and flank, the kaiser's army
crumpled bit. Their losses have
been SO heavy they have been forced
to retire for a reformation of corps
and brief period of rest. The allies,
nevertheless, are wary of trick.
Austria In Trouble.

that Austrias part in the great conflict

London, Sept. 15.-Except for the
army commanded by the Crown
Prince, which has been attacking Yer
dun, the German forces have fallen
back all along the line. according to
the French official report, issued Mon
day afternoon.
From Nancy to the Vosges they have
withdrawn from French territory,
while on the extreme right General
Won Kluck and General Won Buelow
continue to retreat to the northeast.
before the French and British, even
giving up their defensive position on
the river Aisne between Compeigne
and Soissons.
Further west, the German detach-
ments that held Amiens have moved
,northeastward to try to rejoin the
German army on the right at st. Quen-
tin. It is possible that all the Ger
mans In northwest France have done
likewise, otherwise they would be in
danger of being cut off in the center.
Another defensive position behind
Rheims has been given up and In the
Argonne region a general retreat is
taking place toward the forest Of Bel
noue and Triancourt.
The allies are pushing their advan-
tage and doing their utmost to turn
the retreat into disaster by a stern
pursuit on perhaps the broadest scale
yet known in war.
On the right they are in good posi-
ton to continue the offensive, If the
men and horses are not too tired for
further effort. They are based on a
strong line running from the Marne
to the fortresses through the billy
country south Of Argonne.
While the allies left, composed
largely of fresh troops with a heavy
force of cavalry under General Pau, is
wheeling around SO as to drive Gener-
ais Won Kluck and Won Buelow
toward Ardennes and Luxemburg,
General Pau's army by few more
marches by La Fere and Laon might
cut communications between the re-
treating Germans and Belgium.
The British who Sunday took nearly
all the crossings on the river Aisne
and captured many prisoners, are now
north of that river and are pushing the
attack that would assist in forcing the
Germans to evacuate Rheims.
The center, somewhere between
Chalons and Rheims, is making an
effort to recapture the latter city,
which would be one of the most popu-
lar victories that could be announced
to Frenchmen.
Should these movements be crowned
with success and Laon and Rheims
again fall into the hands Of the allies,
the Germans would have only one line
OF communication with Germany,
through Rethel, and even that might
be cut.

After Miss Strong had gone below

the rail looking far out ~ sea. Every
night he had done this since he mad

thus for an hour. And the eyes that
had been watching his every movement

Even a. he stood there this night
those eyes were upon him. Presently
the last straggler had left the deck. II
was q clear night, but there was no
moon-objects OH deck were barely dis
cernible.
From tho shadows Of the cabin two
figures crept stcalthily upon the ape

ring of the propeller. the throbbinE of
the engines, drowned the almost sound

Hazel strong was looking from her

the deck above. 1t dropped so quickly
into tho dark waters below that she
could not be sure OF what II was-it
