Germans Determined
to Capture Calais

London, Oct. 81, 1920 A. Nal
though the official communications do
not spread much light on the sit
uation in West Flanders, other reports
emanating from Holland indicate that
a German retirement from the coast
south of Ostend is imminent and it is
again reported that the invaders have
evacuated Ostend. These rumors.
however, are not confirmed from Ber-
lin, which claims some advance along
the Ypres line.
The city of Lille is declared, in
special dispatches, again to be free of
German troops and its hopeful citizens
are so confident that the Germans
never will return that plans are being
made to resume the usual civic func-
tions.
That Germany has by no means
given up her determination to take
Calais is indicated by the significant
report from Berlin by way of Copen-
hagen that the German general staff
has decided that the army in Poland
shall fall back to the frontier of Silesia
and remain there on the defensive
until the battle in Flanders ends with
the capture of Calais. Such move
ment would release three or four army
corps to be transferred from SILICA to
Belgium

Declaration of War
Has Not Yet Been Made

London. Oct 81, 3.55 A. M.-No
declaration of war has yet been made
by either Turkey or Russia and the
suggestion Is made from various
sources that the German commanders
of the cruisers Goeben and Breslau
may have forced the situation with
out the authority of the Turkish gov
ernment owing to Germanys chagrin
at the defeat on the Vistula.
According to one report the entire
Turkish fleet left Turkish waters un-
defended and the various ships are
now cruising about on the Russian
coasts.
The Petrograd correspondents in
their discussion of the situation re-
mark that the Turkish army is not al
together to be despised, especially as
1t is entirely under the command of
German officers of the highest rank.
The Times Petrograd correspondent
says there are a thousand German
officers in Turkey at the present time.
The commander of the Strait, Colo
mel Devor, is a German, while Gem
eral Liman Won Sanders commands
the Ottoman troops.

NOW TU URN|NG c UP
Certificates Have Turned Up in
Reading, Williamsport and
Other Cities of Penna.

Banks in Harrisburg have been noti-
fed to lookout for counterfeit five dol
lar silver certificates which have been
in circulation in various parts of Penn
sylvania for several weeks. These
spurious notes have turned up in VIII
Transport, Reading and other cities.
They are described as follows:
New counterfeit $5 silver certifi-
cate, series 1899, check letter &C. plate
No. 1909; ]. G. Napier register of the

the United States. Exceedingly dam
gerous counterfeit.

This paper was obtained by bleaching
by chemical process, all print from
genuine 81 note being removed leav-
ing the paper perfectly white. This
counterfeit in our judgment was print
ed from a new plate by the same party
who made the IS counterfeit silver

been improved, particularly the eyes

French Government
to Return to Paris
About November 20

Paris. Oct. 81, 7.10 A. M.-Unoffi-
cial announcement was made to-day
hat the government will return to
Paris from Bordeaux on November 20
and that Parliament will meet on De-
cember / o 10 pass emergency laws.
Little by little Paris appears to be
returning to more normal conditions
The shows in the Avenue De L'Opera,
which had their doors locked and the
windows whitewashed have now been
reopened. Each day another restau-
rant or bar on the boulevards or else
where resumes business and the news
papers which ceased to publish at the
time of the mobilization, have begun
to appear again. The question of re-
opening the Bourse is also discussed.
From the war arena in France and
Belgium the most pleasing news to
Parisians to-day was that telling of
the retreat of the Germans across the
User in the fact of q stiff cannonad-
ing by the allies. The announcement
only few days ago that the Germans
had succeeded in crossing to the left
bank of the User did more to depress
the spirits of the people here than any
development of the wa for some
time.
Their withdrawal now along with
the progress of the allies at other
points, as officially announced, is taken
by many as marking the first stages
of an impending victory.
