England's Version of Defeat

London. September 13.--(11:42 a. m ) The British war information bureaus version of the Austrian defeat in South Poland follows
 land, which penetrated as far as Opolc and Krasnostav and Zamosc. was pro tected on its right by an army opcrat- ing east of Lemberg. This latter army was completely defeated by the Rus sians on, September 1: near Lemberg.
 From that moment it became evi- dent. that if the Austrian right flank could not continue stubborn resist ance the retreat of the main Austrian army from South Poland would be fmperilled. By the capture of Tomas xow on September 10, 1t is probable the Rukxians drove wedge through the Austrian line. Today brilliant Russian victory is reported in which 30.O00 prisoners and several hundred guns were taken. This is probably the immediate result of the Tomaszow actfon.'
 A dispatch to Lloyds news from Pet roRrad, dated yesterday, says:
 Two Austrian armies are surrounded and sa .oea prisoners have been taken. including 800 officers from one army and 500 from another. The surren- der of both armies Is impending. The Germans again are moving troops froIa the east to the vest
 dispatch to the Reuter- Telegram company from Paris says:
 "The Matin learns from Petrograd that the first Austrian army under Gen. eral von Aufrenberg has lost 400 of ficers. 2S,000 soldiers and 100 guns, and that the secV1d Austrian army has 1ost as prisoners 800 officers and TO- coo men, The Russian victory Is con- oIdered to be absolutely decisive.

NO REPLY RECEIVED IN WASHINGT0 FROM THE KAISER
 REGARDING PEACE
Wilson and Bryan Alert for Slightest Opening in the Diplomatic. Situation Abroad to Encourage Peace Negotiations

Washington. September 13.-The Knowledge that Emperor William for several days has been considering message from the United states gov- ernment In effect If Germany desires t" discuss measures set official and diplomatic Washington on the alert to- dny for possible exchange of peace terms between the beIIigerents. No reply from the Emperor had reached here up to late hour tonight.
 It had not been matter of general knowledge until today that beginning with the dinner in New York a week ago attended by, Count von Bernstorfr, the German ambassador and Oscar Strauss. American member of the Hague peace tribunal an informal movement was under way to learn tiermany's attitude toward peace.
 Notwithstanding vigorous statements through official channels lest week that Great Britain France and Rus sia would. not make peace until they had decisively defeated Germany, it Vas admitted in many quarters here today that favorable answer from Emperor William to the American gov ernment's inquiry might change the situation. Such reply. it was agreed, would set the machinery for peace making in motion.
 Wilson and Bryan Alert
 One thing has become apparent to close observers of the situation; Pres ident Wilson and Secretary Bryan are alert for the slightest opening in the diplomatic situation abroad which encourage them to press their offers for an acceptance of mediation. It Is considered likely that the President nay not wait for the powers to take the initiative. and that If there Is an indication of a willingness on the part of the belligerents to discuss peace terms the American government will be quick to take advantage of the opening. In this connection some dip lomatists said President Wilson's per- sonal influerce in Great Britain and France would be an important factor in movement for peace.
 Some diplomatists suggest that Ger many might be stimulated to arrange peace by her powerful interests In British circles here the view Is held

Austrians Begin Determined Advance "On August a the Austrian armies be- gan determined advance to counteract the blow threatening eastern Prussia. The deployment of Russian troops over front of several hundred miles had not been completed We therefore could face only the Austrians Tn the north with a greatly inferior force. The first attacks of the enemy were directed agianst Krasnik, but the center of the Austrian efforts very soon was removed to Tomaszow, a district into which their endorsements began to pour.
 On September, when the fall of Lem berg was imminent, the Austrian advance reached eliminating point. On It's iron tai line the enemy extended from Opolc Con the east bank of the vistula about midway between Badom and Lublin. in Russian Poland) to Bychave, approach :. ing within gunshot of the station at Travnik and enveioping krasnostav, GA niles south of Lublin), zamosc and Gra- bessof. near Josefow. on the east bank of the yistula. short distance south Of Opole.
 Two bridges were thrown across the yistula. over which troops from Radon crossed on their way to the battlefield while awaiting the result of General Ruzesky's operations. our plan was based on the rapid reinforcement of our right wing. The Russian railway car ried out this task very successfully. Our troops in the Chelm district. which were too widely spread out and against wh .h the principal attack of the Austrians was directed, did not receive endorsements for the advance of the Austrians even to Chelm itself. ventually could increase the consequences of their defeat only the event of the ultimate success of our wings.
 Enemy Continually Repulsed
 Tn spite of their numerical inadeauacy, our troops in the center did not confine themselves to defense. They delivered c counter attack, obtaining considerable success near Lacheve. where for six days they did nothing but repel continual at tacks of the enemy. Only on September were they moved a little to the rear l., accordance with orders received.
 The success of General Ruzeskv and General Brusselloff enabled us to make q general offensive movement ana tist enemy's center was beaten at Su ho- doyle. As a result of a rapid movement among the Austrian troops at Krasnil. p these were attacked by General Ruzesky , from the southwest September G. and were forced to accept battle on three fronts. We repelled counter attacks of the Krasnik troops and carried the en- emy's position on the front at Op ole Tourobine
 The Austrians continued vigorously tl attack our left wing to win success in the direction of Lemberg. However. about September 12 we also resumed the offensive on the side and now the battle ], of Galicia, which has lasted IT days, Is drawing to an end

 Relief in Vino1.


 Did you ever cough for week? Then just think how distressing it must be to have a cough hang on for two years.
 Mrs. D. A. McGee, Waycross. Ga, says: 'T had a very heavy cold which settled into chronic cough which kept me awake nights for fully two years, and felt tired all the time The effect of taking your cod liver and iron remedy, Vinol, is that my cough is gone. 1 can now get good nights rest and I feel much stronger in every way. I am "A years old"
 It is the combined action of the medicinal elements of the cods' liv- CTS aided by the blood-making and strength-creating properties of tonic iron which makes Vinol so efficient for chronic coughs, colds and bron- chitis-at the same time building up the weakened, rundown system.
