 IN EUR0PtAN WAR
...s.r-:..s~.:..;..:..;..;.....-:,-...

"The German artillery fire was practically a continual bombardment, intended to pulverize the defense, pl e. parato-y to the advance of the in- fantry." This announcement, made ty the British Official Press Bureau. re- garding the battle around Ypres and Dixmude, in West Flanders, give some idea of the fighting which has been going on in that part of Belgium during the last few days. The losses are admitted to have Teen very heavy, and the statement says "the allies strength has been constantly main tained by endorsements. It is known that the Germans also have been receiving heavy support New ertheless, both the English and French assert that beyond the taking of Dixmude by the invaders, their pro- gress has amounted to very little.
 The British admiralty admits the loss of the cruisers Goodhope and Monmouth by the fire of the German squadron off Chile. The names of 94 officers and warrant officers on these vessels, including that of Rear Ad- miral Sir Christopher Cradock, are published
 Field Marshal Lord Roberts is about to proceed to France, ostensi- ply ito see the Indian troops"
 Premier Asquith, according to re- port, will ask parliament to sanction the raising of one million additional troops for war service, thus bringing the total up to 2,00O,000 men. It is also said the government intends to issue a war loan of S1,000,000,000.
 While the latest French official statement says that German at tempt to debouch from Dixmude by a night attack has been repulsed, Berlin reports that the German advance across the Yser canal to the south of Dixmude is progressing, and that in the region east of Ypres they have made a further advance, capturing 700 French soldiers and some guns.
 In the Eastern arena the Russians have occupied Johannisburg East Prussia, and in Galicia the siege of Przemysl has been resumed. Russia also reported favorable progress against the Turks in the Caucasus.
 Great Britain and France have warned Eucador and Colombia that they will not countenance further vio- lation of neutrality by them. It is believed the warnings were the result of charges that islands off the Euca- dorean coast have been used by the Germans as coaling stations, and that wireless plants in both countries have been giving information to German cruisers.

 Prof. Walden proved to his large audience at Tulane University last night, that he is one of the best indi- vidual entertainers in the country.

two days had passed. Not hearing
from their son, a search was started.

WEST; GERMANS ARE
NEARING WARSAW
Kaisers Forces Reported to Have Made Advances in Bel
gium; French Say Germans Have Been Repulsed at
Three Points; Russians May Evacuate Polish Cap
ital; Emperor William Reported to Be Improving

Both the French and German Off
cial statements of to-day indicated that
the new attempt OF the allies to throw
back the Germans In Belgium has
been checked and that in the region
of Ypres the Germans have not only
hurled back the oncoming forces, but
in turn have made an advance.
The Paris announcement states that
several German attacks were made
and that three of them were COM
pletely repulsed. 1t is admitted, how
ever. that at one point the Germans
succeeded in reaching one of the first
line trenches of the allies. Elsewhere
in Flanders, however, continued prog

made in Flanders.

are making little, If any, progress. The
possibility of German occupation of
Warsaw is seen in Petrograd, where it
is said that If the Russians should
withdraw from the city for strategic
reasons its capture by the Germans
should not be considered as important.
Nicholas at the Front
Emperor Nicholas is again at the
front having gone on this occasion to
TranscauCasia, where his troops are
seeking to thrust back the Turks and
accomplish Russia's historic aim of
planting her flag on the Bosphorus.
Turkish report states that an at
tempt of Russians to land troops on
the shore of the Black Sea near Batum
was repulsed with heavy loss to the In
vaders.
Germany is proud of her adven-
turous men-of-war in the hour of their
destruction. The admiralty at Berlin
points out that the warships defeated
by the British in the South Atlantic
had been for four months on the high
seas, deprived Of the use of ports FOR
