things. Ono of them was that he

EXPECTED SCENE OF ACTIVITY

Of the allies guns. They usually carry
| three or four observers, who have
telephone connection with the grounS
, and report all movement of changes
| in position. Kites, also, are employed
which enable the Germans to estimate

craft are forced to mount very high to
escape danger from shells.
The right wing of the allies is now
beginning to show signs of activity
According to reports reaching Paris
this morning. there was yesterday al
most continuous firing of heavy artil-
lery along the frontier. A force OF
Germans delivered a spirited attack on
French troops. in which numbers were
wounded. AS night closed this force of
the enemy was driven back in the d.
rection of Muelhausen. Lieut.. Col.
Rousset. the French military critic, in
his article today declares that the re-
cent official communications are lack
sible to find in them any indication,
even an absolutely harmless one, of the
present military situation.
Urges Fuller Confidence.
Col Rousset says he calls attention to
this fact without any thought of re-
elimination. II is well aware that it
is difficult to reconcile the legitimate
curiosity of the public with the safe
guarding of national interests, but
when these interests are not at stake
more Hberality could be shown. The
French people have given evidence of
dignity. firmness, wisdom and patriot
ism, and they should be taken more
into the confidence of the government.
In concluding his article the critic
points out several instances in which,
in his opinion, the official communica-
tons have been lacking.
The Hotel de Vile Clown halD of
Arras, which was burned down after
the bombardment of that place, was a
building of Gothic style. 1t was erect
ed in the beginning of the sixteenth
century and was one of the finest types
of this style of architecture in northern
France.
The newspaper France du Nord de-
clares today that when the Germans
were defeated at Arras they lost from
10000 to $4,000 men, who were sur
rounded by the French in some
marshes.

SAYS FATHERLAND
TRIED TO AVOID WAR
Duty as an Ally Calls Germany
TO the Side Of Austria
Hungary.

Berlin, Aug. 5.-Emperor William
opened the imperial parliament with
IN important speech from the throne
Of which the text was partly as fol-
lows:
The world has been q witness OF
the indefatigable manner In which We
stood in the front rank curing the
worries and troubles Of recent years
In the endeayor to spare the nations
Of Europe from q war between the
great powers.
The greatest perils which had
arisen owing TO the events In the
Balkans appeared to have been over
come, but then the assassination Of
my friend, the Archduke Francis Fer
dinand, opened up q great abyss.
My ally. the Emperor Franz Jo-
seph, was compelled to take up arms
for the protection OF his empire
against the dangerous agitation exist
ing In q neighboring state.
I'm pursuing its interests the Rus
sian empire stepped in the way OF
Austria. Hungary.
Not only our duty as an ally called
US to the side Of Austria-Hungary
but the great task was cast upon Us,
at the same time with the ancient
community of culture OF the two en-
pires, 10 protect our own position
against neighbor with whose troops
mine had fought side by side on SO
many fields OF battle and with sincere
regret I saw the breaking of Q. friend
ship TO which Germany had been SO
faithful.
The imperial Russian government,
giving way to an Unsuitable national
ism. has stepped to the side of state
which through a criminal act has
brought about the calamity Of this
war.
"That France also placed herself on
the side Of our opponent was not sur
prising to US. Only too often had our
efforts to bring about more friendly
relations with the French republic
come into contact with the expression
of old hopes and with long standing
malice"
