MassIna on the Rhine.

London, Aug. 1S.-12:45 a. m.-- The Paris correspondent of the Reu- ter Telegram Company sends the fol lowing dispatch:
 "ln a review of the military situa- ton the Temps points out that the French troops cannot debouch on the plains by the valley of the Bruche, which is barred by the fortress at Molsheim in Alsace, 12 miles south west of Strassburg, but says it has been necessary to occupy the valley, as otherwise it might be utilized by the Germans.
 The Temps suggests that the fact that heavy artillery has been found in that region may be construed as indicating that the Germans are mass ing troops behind the Rhine, prepar- ing to force the passes of the Vosges mountains.

 BILL IS OFFERED

 OCEAN SHIPMENTS.

Washington, Aug. 17.-Creation of government war risk insurance bureau to facilitate shipping across the Atlantic while the European pow CTS are at war is proposed in a bill which will be introduced in the house tomorrow with the approval of the administration.

 The proposed bureau would be part O. the treasury department instead of the department of commerce as first contemplated. There would be a war risk fund of about 5000, ,000 with which the government would insure the vessels needed to carry the cargoes of grain and other American products now awaiting transportation Secretary McAdoo and other mem
 be~s of the cabinet think it is tn likely many vessels will take advan taee in the immediate future of tho American registry bill which passed congress today unless a war risk n 1 snrance can be provided.
