 LONDON, Sept. 13.-The sixth week of the war be- tween Germany, France, Great Britain and Belgium has brought a vast transfor- nation. The pursued are now the pursuers. The lr- resistible sweep of the seven German armies through Bel gium into France was met by an immOvable force at the Marne river.
 General Von Kluck s army which so long battled to turn the allies western flank, is itself being slowly but steadily outflanked. Its retirement before the small but hardy British army turned the tide of the battle.
 Today, if the French of ficial reports are correct, all the German armies except that facing Verdun, a few miles southwest, are retreat ing. General Von Kluck s army, which a week ago was a few miles southwest of Paris, has retired more than sixty miles to the northeast. while on the eX- treme right the army of the Bava1'lan crown prince, which attacked the French eastern line from Nancy to F.pinal, has fallen back to the frontiers of Lorraine, permitting the French to re- occupy Luneville and sev- cral other towns.
 General Joffre, French comma nder-in-chief, pie lures the retreat as hurried, if not disorderly, with the Germans abandoning the

MONUMENT TO MONITOR BUILDER Swedes of the State Working Raise Fund of $5000O-C. w. Pearson on State Committee to Secure Money For John Ericsson Memorial

Appreciation by the government of the great services rendered in time of dismay and danger by John Ericsson, the celebrated Swedish inventor and builder of the Monitor, and tangible expression of pride in their distin- guiShed countryman by the Swedish people of this nation, is anticipated in fhe early erection of the John Ericsson memorial at Washington.
 The project is for an appropriation of $50. coo by congress. and the raising, by popular subscription among the Swedish people. promarily, and by oUll- CTS interested. of an equal if not 8 greater amount. The whole sum raised, s10Q, ,000 or more, will be expended in the erection of a memorial in Wash ington-
 The proposition to raise the $50. 900, and perhaps a greater sum, depending largely the enthusiasm manifested, will be submitted to the Swedish peo- ole in circular letters sent to all parts of the couRtry.
 In Hartford preliminary steps have been taken for the organization of the work. For some time the Swedish American Young Mems Republican club has had the memorial in mind, At a recent meeting of the club the matter was discussed at length. The members of the executive committee of the Connecticut Swedish-American Republican league-Charles W. Pear son or NoTWlCQ. ANeI W. Hanson or Portland, John A. Christensen of Deep River, C. W. Thoren of Meriden and Malcolm Swanson of West Hartford were present and heartily approved the project
 Ericsson's Genius.
 Posterity is indebted to Ericsson for the first application of conoensing steam and returning the water to the boiler; to him we owe the first self acting gunlock by means of which na- val cannon could be automa tica1ly dis charged at any elevation; and to him we rightfuly accredit the caloric en- zine. History tells us how Ericsson influenced navigation by inventing the screw propeller.
 But the achievement which made him most famous. and which rendered this country a service difficult to esti- mate. was the construction of the iron clad Monitor.
