suit was war.

London, Oct 14-In the eastern
area of the war the Teutonic allies
and the Russians are preparing to
engage in what may prove one of the
most decisive combats of the Euro
pean struggle. Advices would indi-
cate this gigantic conflict will be de-
termined in Russian Poland
Germany claims to hold all the
western part of Russian Poland, with
the exception of Warsaw, and it is
becoming clear that the German mill
tary operations in the eastern theater
are being concentrated In Poland.
Vienna declares the entire Russian
force investing Przemysl has been
withdrawn. Russia makes no refer
ence to the situation at Przemysl,
but 1t is reported that Russian forces
are continuing to advance in East
Prussia, and that the soldiers of EN-
peror Nicholas hold the entire district
of Lyck.
Berlin admits having withdrawn
from the Niemen river and at the same
time discounts the whole movement
In that region as being of no strategic
Importance The latest German Off
cial communication says the Russians
have been expelled from East Prussia
and purused across the frontier. The
statement says the Germans never in
tended to occupy Suwalki.
Russians Quit Galiclan Zone.
1t is clear, however, that Russia has
abandoned the narrow point in Cali
ella between Przemysl and Cracow, the
two Austrian strongholds. Russian
official advices assert the withdraw.
al of Russian troops from this Sec
tion is due to strategic reasons. The
Austrian official statement declares
the Russians were forced to abandon
their movements here because re-
juvenated Austrian armies have re-
lieved Przemysl and driven the in
vaders out. These new Austrian ar.
mics, reinforced by German troops,
out of Galicia to the east OF Przemysl.
Austrian reports say the Russians
withdrawing from the vicinity OF
Przemysl were attacked by Austrians
while crossing the River San near
Sieneawa and Lezajsk and many pris-
oners were captured.
Vienna adyices say several bat
talions OF troops have left Pola, the
Austrian naval base and arsenal, for
Galicia. Pola has been converted in
to a huge barracks and most of the
civilians, women and children have
left the town. In Trieste, Austria, a
region OF pro-Italian sentiment, the
Austrian authorities continue to
search the homes of Italians and to
arrest Italians accused of hostile acts.
Reports of these actions are causing
some irritation on the Italian side of
the frontier.

gathering for a general engagement
along both banks of the River Lys,
the reinforced allies against the Ger.
man army which is attempting an en-.
circling movement toward Ostend and
the coast.
Although not officially confirmed by
the press bureau there is no doubt
here of the truth Of the reported oc'
cupation of Ghent by the German
forces. The city is only twelve miles
southwest of Lokern, where 1t was
known the German forces were con.
centratsd in force. Officials believe
that the Belgian field for the present

The Armies

OF England, France, Germany and Russia are
not permitted to use pound of alum baking
powder. The efficiency of the soldiers de-
pends too much upon their health and en-
durance to risk the use of food which the
authorities believe would be detrimental.
Therefore the manufacture and sale of the
alum powder is prohibited.
Royal Baking Powder is extensively used
privately and by the military forces through
out the world. Its absolute wholesome
ness, imparting as it does, healthful as we'll as
appetizing qualities to the food, and its per-
feet keeping qualities in every climate and
under different conditions, make it particu-
larly desirable for all conditions of use.
