War ONCE Statement.
The official communication issued by
the French war department last night
announced that the ground previously
ceded by the French between Claulnes
and Roye has been retaken. and that
on the center the French have advanc-
ed on certain points.
Except on the two wings. where the
there has been nearly complete calm
along the front.
"On our left wing the German cav
airy has been held in check; to the
north of Lille it has been driven back
Between Chaulnes and Roye the
ground previously ceded has been re-
taken.
"On the center we have made an ad-
vance on certain points.
There is nothing to report on our

Wars Fiercest Fighting.
ON THE BATTLE FRONT. October Z.
via Paris, October 8.-The f3ercest hght-
ing which has marked the conflict in the
French theater Of war has taken place
since Monday on the western wing OF
the allied armies. New forces Of German
cayalry and infantry which have ap-
peared in front of the allies lines have
used every resource and every effort to
attain success They have thrown them
selves again and again at the French
and British, who have brought equally
strong bodies Of troops forward to op-
pose them
The battle is no longer one OF ma
chinelike strategy Of two armies, out
a contest centering In the powers OF
endurance of two bodies of human be-
inRs each as determined as the other
not to give up the struggle before vic
tory IL achieved. Here and there the
lines have faltered one way or the
other under the shock. but again have
frightened up and become Arm.
At one point the German cavalry
even succeeded in breaking through
the allied lines, at place which must
remain undisclosed. but not in suf-
icient strength to make their feat of
appreciable Importance. The retire.
ment of the allies was. however. fully
in accordance with the plans of the
general stan. The breach in the line
was at an acute angle and the Ger
mans were placed in q very precarious
position. from which they were ousted
with great loss later in the day. All
through last night and today the fight
continuing until this even
ing. when a period Of calm set in.

"At Tsingtau the German fire

captive balloon was cut, and the
balloon foated away"
A hundred woman shell divers
of Shima province offered their
services to the navy to clear the
mines from Kiaoehow bay. The
offer was declined by the navy, as
the law prohibits the employment
of women in warlike operations.
These divers are accustomed to
remain in the water for a long
period. Their idea was that un-
seen by the enemy they could
dive for the mines near Kiaochow
and remove them to the Japanese
warships.
PEKING, China. October s.-The gov
ernment has been informed that a
party Of thirty Japanese occupied on
Wednesday the stations of the Shan
tung railway at Tainan, the western
terminus of the German-owned road.
The foreign office Immediately upon
receipt of this Intelligence delivered
another protest to the Japanese lega-
tfon demanding the withdrawal of the
japanese troops and asking for a reply.
However despite the ultimatum-liae
character Of the Chinese note, it is ad-
mitted that China does not Intend to
fight. Also at the solicitation of the
government, which feared that other
wise the situation with Japan would be
further complicated, the Germans have
not fulfilled their threat to dynamite
the bridges. They had announced that
this would be done unless China COM
pelled the japanese to withdraw from
the railway. Meantime the japanese
are preparing to reopen traffic on the
road.
The feeling here against the Jap
anese is becoming intense. The papers
publish accounts of their alleged mis-
behavior with characteristic exaggera-
tion. For example. a petition from the
citizens of Weihsien says: 1.-THE Jap
anese arrived here three days ago since
when the misery sustained by the peo-
| ple is beyond description. The actual
number here has not yet been ascer-
tained, but the streets and the lanes

Secretary Bryan has been assured that
the occupation by the Japanese naval
forces of the German Pacific islands Is
only temporary and solely for military
purposes. This assurance came from the
japanese foreign office through Am
bassador Guthrie and from the Japanese
embassy in Washington.
1t is believed the declaration from the
japanese government of its intentions
regarding the islands seized was made
voluntarily. State Department officials
said no inquiries had been made by the
United States on the subject.
