BERLIN, September 14.-Losses reach
ing half Of their strength were suffer-
ed by contingents of the 1st Bavar1an
Army Corps in the battle at Saarburg.
In the middle of August, and borne
without wavering." according to de-
tailed report of this battle issued by
the general STAFF.
1t was the intention to issue detailed
reports of the various operations regu-
larly. to supplement the necessarily
brief cotemporaneous telegraphic re-
ports. The course Of events has been
SO headlong that the present report Is
the first of this kind that the geneIa al
staff has been able to give out
Account of Battle.
1t says:
After the daring invasion Of French
territory, in which the LIST Bavarian
Army Corps, unassisted. had fought its
way beyond the line of Blamont-Badon-
viller. the corps had to fall back be-
hind the Saar river, the leaders hav-
ing planned to offer here an energetic
defense against the superior French
forces The French advance guards
followed close upon the heels of the
corps, the mass of the French army
opening in their rear it's great often
sive movement into Lorraine.
August IS the corps again reached
Saarburg, where it had been detrained
ten days earlier. Reluctantly it saw
itself obliged to abandon this town
Temporarily, since its position for the
coming battle lay to the north and
east of the city.
"On the morning of August 10 two
French cavalry divisions appeared be-
fore Saarburg. moving out in mass
formation without any cover. A few
shots from our heavy artillery, which
landed in the midst of their ranks,
forced them to scatter.
The French infantry that afternoon
and during the night pushed gradu-
ally on, Saarburg and the woods TO the
left filling up more and more with
hostile infantry. 1t later developed
18th Army Corps were facing the 1st
Bavarian Corps.
Order to Attack.
The orders for the first had been
that it was to defend decisively its
position between Rommelfngen and
Rieding. In the night Of August 19
came the joyfully received new order
for a general attack along the whole
front at IL o'clock in the morning Of
August 20.
TT was plain that this attack would
be difficult. for 1t required an advance
over open territory before the Bavar-
ians' own positions. But the enemy
was massed and in attacking distance.
Beginning with the first gray light
Of the morning the artillery Of both
sides bombarded each other heavily.
The infantry, which lay in trenches
under the extremely heavy fire of the
French artillery, and the infantry at
the rear. which covered itself skillfully
behind the natural defense Of the field,
arranged its formations for the coming
attack. and awaited eagerly the hour
of its beginning. In the meantime the
corps had prepared its formation for
the attack without the enemy's becom-
ing aware of 1t.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
LONDON, September 21.-Thousands
Of persons in England still believe the
reports that great numbers Of Russian
troops were sent from Finland to
France and Belgium by sea and are
fighting with the allies. In spite of
emphatic denials from the official press
bureau and the war Office the rumors
will not down and stand as the most
interesting myth of the war up to date.
Scores of men still insist they saw
Russians moving on trains through
England. 1t would not be impossible
to get many afidavits from residents
of Southampton who believe they saw
Russians embark there for French
ports. At Leith and other Scotch ports
there are many honest citizens who
stake their honor that they saw Rus
slams land on Scottish soil and start
southwark into England.
Say They Fed Russians.
Several restaurant keepers in Lon
don swear they fed many Russian Off
GERS at the time darkened trains were
reported to be carrying Cossacks
through London, destined for southern
ports.
London papers have repeatedly poked
fun at the canards and exploded the
theory of military strategists who pic
tured the Cossacks entering Belgium
and cutting of the retreat Of the Ger
man forces in France. Still there are
many credulous persons who still be-
lieve the Russians are in France and
are supported in their belief by dis
patches from imaginative correspond
ents in France, who encounter travel
n action
with the allies, or say they met such
persons.
The number Of Russians sent to
France and Belgium by vivid imagina-
tions has varied from $4,000 to 250,000.
When the rumors first circulated in
England the number was $4,000. But
when the rumor got to Rome the num-
ber had increased more than three-fold.

The cause of the fire is a mystery.

The building was owned by the

officials said were $1,a49.0o0 in cur

Uncertainty as to the number of
men in the building when the fire broke

number of missing. Jack Reissinger

members had rooms at the club and
