London. Oct. 5.-General Won Kluck.
reinforced with troops from the Ger
man center. continues to make a de-
termined stand against the attempt Of
the allies to outflank him. The French.
who yesterday officially reported that
all German attacks In this region had
been repulsed and that the allies had
resumed the offensive, announced to-
day that the battle to the north Of the
Disc. which commenced seriously
about Sept. 25, continues with great
violence with no decisive result and
that at certain points the French
troops have had to yield ground.
The Germans, in their report is
sued last night, say the battle Ia pro-
ceeding successfully for them.
Both in London and in Paris there
is the greatest confidence, although
some surprise Is displayed at the sue
cess of the Germans In preventing the
outflanking movement. There is q
feeling. however, that the Germans
cannot extend their line much further
north without weakening 1t at some
point.
Along the rest Of the line. the
French communication says, there has
been no change. Therefore the prog
ress in the. regions Of Soissons and
Woevre, reported Sunday night, either
has satisfied them for the moment or
they have been checked by the Ger
mans.
General Helmuth Won Moltke has
been superseded by General Voight

Moltke is known as a great organ
izer, and he has been given credit for
the machine-like precision Of the Ger
man armies.

on Wednesday evening by Miss

She is truly an artist of great
ability and she sustained the wide
reputation she has made, by her
splendid rendering of a varied
and difficult programme.
The German and French songs
were sung with exquisite taste
tho perhaps, her wonderful dra-
matte power was shown to the
greatest, advantage in Itch Grolle
