TAKE ACTION SOON.

London, Sept. 1.-THE Ital-
ian and Roumanian activities
seem to point to decisive ac-
ton in the near future.
Should these countries take
the field against Austro-IIun-
gary it is argued that Germany
will be thrown on her own re-
sources to repel the Muscovite
hosts thus strongly reinforced.
Italy seems to have called
her reservists to the colors and
to be on the point of occupy
ing Avlona in order to safe
guard her interests in the Ad-
riatic.

London, Sept. 1.-THE Aus
trian armies evacuating Cali
cia are in full rout. Their
losses in killed and prisoners
are several hundred thou
sands. The Germans, who
went to their succor, are re-
treating.
London, Sept. 17.-Petro-
grad reports that the flower of
the German corps, detached
for service in East Prussia, are
again hurrying back to the
western front, and Stockholm
learns that General Won Hin
dernberg, flushed with victory
against the Russians on the
east Prussian frontier, has
been urgently summoned to
command the western army.
Terribly battered, the sec
Ond western army is safe un-
der the guns of Przemysl, but
with the Russians only nine
teen miles away. Desperate eff
forts probably will be made to
form junction with the fourth
Austrian army, with the idea
of reorganizing with Cracow
as the base.
The Russians have crossed
the River San and are ham
mering at the retreating Aus
ro-German forces. Despite
their unprecedented losses, the
Germanic allies seem to retain
a fighting organization, and if
they gain Cracow, may pre-
vent the Russian right from
marching on Berlin from War
saw.
Grodek, sixteen miles west
of Lemberg, occupied by the
Russians, is of great natural
strength and can be easily de-
Tended in case of a counter at
tack.
Austrian Repulse Denied.

GERMAN STATEMENT.
Washington, Sept. 1.-THE
German embassy has received
the following Berlin wireless:
"All the French and Eng
lish reports of victories in the
battle in France are untrue.
The German retreat of the
western wing was a practical
maneuver, not affecting the
strategical position.
1.-The French attempt to
break through the German cen
ter was victoriously repulsed.
There is confirmation of
German success at several
points along the long extend
ed battle field.
1.-The Temps declares the
losses of the British army in
the recent fighting were $4,000
dead and wounded"
FRENCH ON DEFENSIVE?
Paris, Sept. 1.-THE rear
guard action, supposed at first
to be intended as a check to
pursuit, and to facilitate the
retreat of the armies of Gen
erals Won Kluck and Won Bue-
low, has developed into what
probably will be called in his
tory the battle of the Aisne.
A war official says the
French have not flinched. This
sounds as if they were on the
defensive.
An official, summarizing the
situation, says:
1.-The battle is being contin-
ued along the entire front be
tween the River Disc and the
River Meuse. The Germans
occupy positions organized for
defense and armed with heavy
artillery.
Cold, heavy rains are fall
ing today throughout the
fighting zone in northern and
eastern France.
Many German Prisoners.
Neither side has attempted to make
any estimate Of the losses in killed,
wounded and captured during the bat
tie of the Marne, but they must have
been enormous. Many German prison.
ers have fallen into the hands of the
British, and so great number of pris-
oners and stragglers have been taken
by the French that the minister of
war refuses TO make an estimate for
fear Of being accused of exaggeration.

interview attributed to Lionel Garden,

the United States for withdrawing
troops from Vera Cruz
The Calumet news., 1914-09-17

Paris, Sept. 17'-(After-
noon. Official reports show
that the great battle is contin-
uing with undecisive results.
The resistance of the Germans
is not broken at certain points,
but they are described as Civ
ing back slightly. At other
points they continue to fortify,
The French repulsed some of
their counter attacks.
London, Sept 1.-THE
world once more has been set
the task of guessing how ter
rife the clash of arms on the
heights northward of the river
Aisne is progressing.
Berlin claims the attacks OF
the allies have been repulsed
and that the German counter
attacks have succeeded, while
it is asserted officially in Lon
don that the German counter
attacks have been repulsed
and that the invaders are
slowly giving way.
The battle lines must be
quite $50 miles long so there
is ample room for success in
one part of the field and re-
verses elsewhere.
The opposing armies, with
the heavy reinforcements
which have reached them,
probably total in the neigh
borhood of three million.
The Germans are in their
selected positions, with strong
reinforcements from Lorraine,
consequently this great battle
may yet prove to be one Of the
most decisive and momentous
Of the war.
The British and French
seem to be attempting to re
peat on the Aisne the turning
carried oSt success
fully on the Marine. Should the
German right be again turned
there are no great defensive
behind the invaders
until they reach the River
Meuse.
The French army, which
barred the exit of the crown
princes forces by way of Toul,
is still hurrying in pursuit Of
him in the direction of Stenav
Gap.

How that proposition led to the candidacy
of Pope Brown, who mysteriously gave way
to Hoke Smith, is recent history
In effect, we used Hoke Smith to put the

Primarily, my purpose was to lift the South
into political Importance, by making an OPP
portunity for two white mems political par

For Smith himself, I cared as little then,
as now: he was the bulky, fatuous, self-seel1er

ship than his Piedmont bar-keeper.
If the South had two political parties, made

those two parties had to compete, Nip and

SUIT DISMISSED.
But Judge Aldrich Dissented from Fed
eral Court Opinion.

Boston, April BY majority in
the United States court, the suit OF
Charles S. Hinchman OF Philadelphia
against the Consolidated Arizona Smelt-
ing company to recover 100000 alleged
to be due on the purchase price of the
Blue Bell mines was dismissed yester-
day.
Judges Dodge and Brown held that
the 100000 was not part of the pur-
chase price, but was an amount agreed
upon between parties previous to bank
ruptcy proceedings, and was expected to
be collected from the net profits of the
mines. Judge Aldrich, in dissenting
opinion claimed that the 100000 was
part Of the purchase price and was an
equitable charge against the property.
The suit grew out OF an agreement
between J.. Elliott Of New York and
the company in 1906, in which the lat
ter paid 100000 down and agreed to
pay % per cent OF the net profits until
the amount reached 100000. The orig
inal smelling company became bankrupt
and new company of the same name
purchased the property for 100000. .
Hinchman's claim that the new com
pany assumed the obligations Of the
old formed the basis of the suit which
the court dismissed.
