KAISER'S AVALANCHE ROLLS
ONWARD THROUGH BELGIUM
Flight of Government to Havre and Great Activity
Along Coast on Part of Allies and German
Forces Indicate Crisis of Campaign
Beers ARE IN REVOLT AGAINST GREAT BRITAIN

London.-The Importance of Belgi-
UNI as a battle ground grows every day.
Germans are apparently determined
to leave not a foot of ground unoccu-
pied, if they can and patrols OF
cyclists and Uhlans are advancing In
every direction.
Reinforced by many Of the men re-
leased by the fall of Antwerp the
Kaiser's forces advanced rapidly,
while the Allies strove desperately
to shake off Gen. Won Kluck's right
in the Hazebrouck district and extend
their left to the North Sea.
The Anglo-French forces resumed
the offensive along a 20-mile line
from Bethune to Hazebrouck, accord
ing to the French War Office.
Between Arras and Albert to the
south, the Allies report gains, but
Lille has been %reoccupied by the Ger
mans, who drove out the French ter
ritorials.
Near Berry-au-Bac, on the Aisne,
the Germans were driven back. The
FRENCH also Cldlm gains III Inc MCuoC
region from Verdun to Agreement.
Advices from Berlin say that the
centre of the German military opera
tions is now in Poland and that the
whole of Poland west of the Vistula
is in German possession, the Rus
slams occupying only Warsaw.
There is a strange lack of news
from Petrograd about the movements
of the great Russian armies. The
press bureau has permitted the pub.
LEGATION of German wireless des-
patches that the Austro-German ad.
vance, after numerous successful
engagements, has reached the River
San; that the fortress of Przemsyl
has been relieved, and that 10000
Russians were killed or wounded in
the great battle near this place.
Moreover, the Austrians, says the
report, have r~eoccupied Jaroslav and
Leajek, and the Russians have been
defeated in South Poland, where the
Germans are steadily advancing.

at S~elzaete, a short distance from
Client, and the commander announced
that 5000 soldiers would be CHARTERED
on the village.
A despatch from Ostend says that
a German aviator dropped two bombs
on Ostend. Neither of the missiles ex-
ploded.
All eyes are turned to the east
ward because, under conditions of the
utmost secrecy, the Teutonic Allies
and the Russians are preparing to
engage in what may prove one of the
most decisive combats of the war.
Evidence is accommodating to show
that this gigantic conflict will be de-
termined in Russian Poland, and the
only question disturbing British ex-
perts is as to which side has chosen
the battle ground.
That the German armies are mas
ters of all of Russian Poland west of
the Vistula River is the declaration
made in an official statement issued at
the Berlin War Office. The statement
admits that the Germans lost a little
ground in Russian territory near the
East Prussian frontier, but declares
this is of no consequence, as they
had never planned to occupy the
Province of Suwalki.
A dispatch from Petrograd says
that the Russian advance column de-
livered another defeat upon the Ger
nan and Austrian armies marching
on Sandomierz. An entire division,
with it's equipment, was captured, ac-
cording to the Russian report.
Announcement of the withdrawal Of
the Germans from the vicinity of
Verdun, as officially indicated, has
been well received by the French. 1t
is taken to show the further olsen
gagement of the enemy's forces
operating around the great French
fort on the Mouse, and what is re-
garded in Paris as the retiring of the
enemy toward the frontier.
The Penn's Grove record., 1914-10-16

London.-Five thousand British ma
rines who aided in the defence of
Antwerp have returned, and from
many of them it was learned that
the commander of one Of the for
tresses was a German spy.
1t is now known that treachery
aided German artillery in running the
defence of Antwerp. The command
ant in one fort was a German spy,
and was shot by his men. German
spies blew up the magazine of Fort
Wavre-St. Catherine at a critical mo-
ment in the fighting, cut off the wa
ter supply of the city, sent news to
the German commanders of every
plan and movement and effectually
neutralized the resolution and valor
of Belgians and British.
The Germans lost 10000 men in
the capture Of Antwerp, according
to Paul Eric, special correspondent
of the Journal, who writes:
"The . heroic Belgian defense Of
Forts Waelhem, Wavre and Lierre,
forming the outer ring, cost the Ger
mans very dear. General Won Beseler
threw compact masses of troops into
the intervals, where the Belgians
poured a whitening infantry fire on
the assailants.
South of the third line Of defense
German bodies are now piled in heaps.
This happened at the beginning of
the assault. South of Fort Bornheim
the Belgians inferred 5000 German
corpses.
when Won Beseler managed to
cross the Nethe and install 16h-inch
guns on the north banks shells fell
in Antwerp like hailstones. Most of
the remaining population then retired
to cellars, with food, placing mat
tresses and sacks filed with earth
against the doors and window graf
ings."
AS oon as Antwerp was occupied
the Germans began to fortify it. If
given a little time they will, with
help of their heavy artillery, make it
practically impregnable.
Most of the large stock of provi-
sions stored at Antwerp was removed
before the entrance of the Germans
and the remainder was destroyed.
The Belgian army took all the can
non except a few guns which were
rendered useless.
A reporter, escorted by the com
mandant, went through the streets,
but saw no sign Of Belgian life ex-
cept a few straying dogs. German
soldiers were walking about asking
their way. The town is little dam
aged.

Germans Sink
Russian Cruiser;
568 Are Lost

Petrograd.-An official communica-
ton issued announces that the Rus
sian armored cruiser Pallada was tor
pedoed in the Baltic Sea by a Ger
man submarine and sank with all her
crew.
The text of the communication,
which was made public by the Marine
Department, follows:
"On Oct. 10 German submarines
were sighted in the Baltic Sea. The
same day, early in the morning, the
submarines attacked the cruiser Ad-
miral Makaroff, which had stopped to
search a suspected bark flying the
commercial flag of the Netherlands.
ga submarine of the enemy launch
ed several torpedoes, which luckily
missed the mark and caused no dam
age whatsoever to the cruiser.
"On Oct. II, at 2 o'clock in the
afternoon, the submarines of the
enemy again attacked our cruisers
Bayan and Pallada, which were pa
trolling the Baltic.
Although the cruisers opened in
time a very strong fire, one of the
submarines succeeded in launching
torpedoes against the Pallada, where
upon an explosion resulted and the
cruiser with all her crew sank"
So far during the present war, up
to and including the sinking of the
Pal1ada which carried 56S officers
and men, the submarine on both sides
has accounted for a total of four
armored cruisers (three British, one
Russian), two small cruisers Zone on
each side)L. Most of the honors have
been with the Germans.

Germans Stir
up Rebellion in
South Africa
Martial Law Proclaimed Throughout
Union by characterization Grave
Troops Under the Command of
Colonel Maritz Mutiny.

London.-The army under command
of Colonel Solomon G. Maritz, a
veteran of the Boer War who is &C.
cused of plotting with the Germans,
has rebelled in the northwest of the
Cape Provinces.
Martial law has been proclaimed
throughout the union and drastic
steps have been taken to prevent
a spread of the revolt.
The announcement that a section
of the Dutch element in South Africa
ha6 turned against the British Gov
eminent came suddenly and is the
first warning note that the empire
may have to face internal difficulties
when at war with Germany.
1t ~momentarily has diverted atten-
ton from the battle in the north of
France.
Official dispatches from Lord Bux-
ton, Governor General, to the Imperial
Government and the measures taken
by General Louis Botha and his col
leagues to stamp out the uprising
showed that the outbreak is real and
dangerous.
The proclamation of martial law di-
rectly charges the widespread secret
propaganda of the Germans with be-
ing responsible for the seduction of
this commando, which was one of
the four armies sent in the field when
the union Government undertook to
relieve the home Government of the
task of dealing with the German
colonies in the continent of Africa.

GERMANS PUSH BACK RUSSIANS
Russians Win
Advantage in
Vistula Battle

London.-The Ministry of War in
Petrograd that Russia has
conquered and occupied SO, 0 0 square
miles of Austrian territory, while
successfully pushing vast offensive
operations against the German
provinces of East Prussia, Posen and
Silesia.
The center of interest now is in
southwestern Poland, in the province
of Radon, where the Germans, hav-
ing formed a junction with Austrian
forces, are obstinately opposing the
advance of the Russians toward Bres-
lau and Cracow. The battle is in the
initial stage, with slight advantages
gained by the Russians.
The course of the River Vistula
outlines the battle front. On the
west side, Gen. Won Hindenburg COM
handing an estimated force of 900, 900
Germans and Austrians, is obstinate
ly contesting the progress of prob
ably 1000, 900 Russians commanded
by the Grand Duke Nicholas. Toward
the southwest, east of the River
Dunajec in Galicia, the Russians are
attacking German and Austrian out
posts.
Northward of this principal theatre
Of operations Gen. Rennenkampf,
with accessions of fresh troops and
artillery, is following up his success
at Augustowa and along the River
Niemen. Russian troops have pene-
trated into East Prussia in some
places, but for the most part the
Russians are content to hold the Ger
on the defensive along the
whole East Prussia frontier. It is
confirmed that the Russians are de-
veloping a strong offensive in the
Mazur Lakes region in East Prussia.
Official reports from Germany de-
clare the story of the advance of the
Russian forces across the Niemen
River in the Government of Suwalki
is a lie, and say in the battle near
Augustowo the Germans completely
defeated two Russian army corps,
took $500 unwounded prisoners and
twenty guns and a number of ma
chine guns.

completed their headlong, record
breaking rush toward the worlds
baseball championship here by de-
feating the Philadelphia Athletics 8
runs to 1 in the fourth and deciding

With this victory, the Boston Ma

most sensational record in modern
professional baseball.
Beginning with their rush from
last place in the senior league in
the middle of July, the Braves have
broken traditions and records in the
national sport with speed and aban-
don during the last three months.
They emerged champions of the
world, leaving a trail of startling
surprises and upsets in their wake
which will be hard to duplicate in
years to come.

Last and far from the least of their
accomplishments was the overthrow

which, temporarily at least, racked
it to the smallest cog.
To the victors belong the spoils
and the credit, and unexpected as
was the crushing defeat, the Mack
men took it in sportsmanlike spirit,
praising the winners and offering no
excuse for their failure to hold their
National League rivals in check. In
fact, none are available, for the Bos-
ton club outplayed and outgamed
their more experienced opponents in
every game and department of play.

Athletics by their warmest admirers,
was that the team neither collectively
nor as individuals appeared to get
going in the manner shown in previ.

New Worlds Series Record.
To crush completely and decisively
the great combination which has rep
resented Philadelphia in the Ameri-
can League in recent years, is honor
enough for any rival baseball club,
but the Braves in their youthful ardor
and speed did even better, for they
established a new Worlds Series rec
ord by winning in succession the four
games necessary to clinch the title.
The victory of the Braves brings
about a tie for inter-league honors,
since American League and National
