mysl behind them and retreating to Cracow. It is said by Russian corre- spondents that the Austrians have lost all discipline, the aim of the men be- ing to get across the Carpathians.
 If this is true, their commanders are likely to have difficulty in leading them over 200 miles to Cracow, where they might find support from the newly formed German corps which has as- sembled there. Besides, they are in danger. from the Russian army coming from the north.
 Austria is calling to the colors all men available for military service, in cludlng those previously rejected as unfit. But this can hardly help the army in Galicia, which has, according to Russian reports, suffered such ter rible losses.
 From East Prussia nothing new has come today except report that the Russian General Rennenkampf has frustrated the attempt to outfiank him and that he has taken up positions in line with the fortresses on the Russian side of the border.
 Skirmishes in Belgium.
 In Belgium there has been a contin- uatfon of skirmishes which have been feature of the war since the Germans advanced into France, with advances and withdrawals as daily occurrences. For example, the Germans yesterday reoccupied Termonde. only to leave it this morning.
 Besides the eastern portion of the country, the Germans hold the line aI- most to Tournai, in the department of Hainaut, thus preventing the Belgians from going too far in their marrying tactics on the German troops proceed ing to France.
 Thus far, however, the Belgian army has fulfilled 1t sallotted place by keep ing at least one division from going to the assistance of the army on the Aisne.
 Armed Neutrality in Italy.
 In Italy the agitation for the partici- patton of the country in the war seems to be on the increase. Italy's position is described as one of armed neutrality to prevent the war from causing her damage and to shape the new situation in conformity with her interests.
 Rumania is in much the same posi- tion. She does not want to go to war. but as the same time does not want to lose any share of the spells that might fall to her.

GERMAN INFORMALLY SUGGESTS
 THAT UNITED STATES ACT
Ascertain Terms on Which Allies
 Would Make Peace.

Washington, Sept. 17.-Germany has suggested informally that the United States should undertake to elicit from Great Britain, France and Russia a statement Of the terms under which the allies would make peace.
 The suggestion was made by the imperial chancellor Won Bethmann. Hollweg, to Ambassador Gerard at Berlin, as a result of an inquiry sent by the American government to learn sirous of discussing peace as Count Von Bernstorff, the German ambassa- dor and Oscar Straus recently re- ported.
 No reply was made by Emperor William himself. nor did the imperial chancellor indicate whether he spoke on behalf of his monarch. Ambassa- dor Gerard cabled President Wilson the chancel1or's remarks from recol- lection, which was substantially as follows:
 Germany was appreciative of the American governments interest and offer of services in trying to make peace. Germany did not want war. but had it forced on her. Even if she defeats France, she must likewise van- quish both Great Britain an dRus- sia. as all three have made an agree common consent. Similarly England has announced through Premier As- quith and her diplomatists and news papers that she intended to fight to the limit of her endurance. In view of that determination on the part of Great Britain, the United States ought to get proposals of peace from the al- lies. Germany could acaept only a lasting peace, one that would make her people secure against future at tacks. To accept mediation now would be interpreted by the allies as a sign of weakness on the part of Germany and would be misunderstood by the German people, who, having made great sacrifices had the right to demand guarantees of security
 The above is all that Ambassador Gerard communicated as to his con- versation- He added only the brief comment that he, himself thought the way might possibly be opened to mediation. President Wilson did not regard the message, however, as bring ing anything tangible. He referred to the chancellor's conversation as noncomnittal and incidental to the acknowledgment of the American gov- ernment's inquiry.
