1t is on England that Prof. Del

the war.

NEW YORK. Oct. s. Further
necessity for Strengthening the Ger
man western battle front has un-
doubtedly caused another re-distribu-
ton of the invaders forces. Won
Klucks original command is doubt
less now the strongest part of the
entire German line, entailing corre-
spending weakness elsewhere.
The new western re-enforcements
have come from the German center
and from the left. Only an exchange
of artillery fire has been proceeding
at the center for a number of days
while only the German left, the
desperate attempts to break through
the Meuse frontier defensive line
have weakened. The reason in both
cases is the urgent necessity for
bolstering up the western battle line.
The length of this line, from its
southern extremity between the
Aisne and Disc rivers to the Belgian
frontier is seventy-five miles. Prop
erly to defend heavily entrenched
Positions and to attempt offensive
diversions at Won Kluck has been
doing requires about 1000 men per
mile. The German western front
therefore comprises ZOO men, ac-
cording to standard methods of esti-
mating. The number may, in fact.
be nearer million, depending on the
strength the allies have been able
to muster for their advance toward
Belgium.
An opportunity for breaking
through the German weakened center
undoubtedly now exists. but to take
advantage OF 1t seems to be beyond
the possibility of modern warfare.
If the allies could detach secretly
a considerable part Of their western
army and launch 1t against the Ger
man center, an overwhelming dis
aster to the Germans would result.
Such a display Of strategic genius
Of the kind that won many victories
for Napoleon would earn for Cen
eral Joffre the marshars baton, Just
revived by the French government.
The difficulties in the way are the
superiority of the German espionage
system and the persistent use By the
Germans Of local offensive tactics.
This local offensive is admirably eff
fective in preventing just such a
coup as has been outlined above II
the allies were to weaken their west
ern front, in order to concentrate
against the center, one Of Won
Klnck's persistent counter attacks
might break through the allied line
and the complexion or the French
campaign change in the twinkling
of an eye.
Only an immediate success with
the element of surprise playing a
large part would overcome the risks.
These risks are so perilous that
they are not likely to be taken. In
stead, the dangerous opportunity at
the center for overwhelming the Ger
mans by a lightning-like stroke,
while undoubtedly under considara-

"A pretty little fight was seen over the
British lines at Cambria. A French air
man swooped in the air and down on the
German observer. They fought in the

at last The Erenchman scared aloft, got
above nis antagonist, and 'outed' him
with a shot from his quick firer. He
fell mangled mass in front of our
trenches.
Thomas Atkins remains the cool, i'm
perturbable creature that he has always
shown himself. An officer lying in a
trench under a terrific shell fire heard
q voice at his elbow, saying: Beg par

Beg pardon. sir, May 1 fall out? I've

Anyhow, the conditions were the same.
1t was dinner time. But in this war
there is no dinner rush from Il to l.
The shells continued to roar. But fifty
yards behind the trench, screened by
belt of trees. the battalion reserves had
their fires alight and employed their
time cooking dinner for the battalion.
That was all very well. But fifty yards
of shell-swept ground between left the
men in the trenches a plaguy way from

Immediately a host of volunteers

Today's War
Summary
Bv John EDWIN NEvIN.

ENGLAND-It is admitted the
battle of Cracow, just beginning,
will have a most decisive effect in
the war if Russia wins, as it will
probably force Germany to sue for
peace. The announcement by Sir
John French that the Germans
are plainly suffering from a scare
ity of officers is accepted as prov.
ing the severity of the German
losses have not been exaggerated.
FRANCE-The Germans con-
tinue their desperate efforts to
break through the allied lines on
the left and isolate the northern
French wing, but the war office Of
ficially declares the movement has
failed to succeed.
RUSSIA-The war office de-
clares the Germans have been de-
cisively defeated, and are in full
retreat from Russian Poland, and
that the battle of Cracow, now be-
ginning, may prove the decisive
conflict of the war. 1t is declared
the German loss in killed, wounded
and captured numbers 10000.
BELGIUM - The bombardment
OF Antwerp continues, but every
attempt of the Germans to gain a
foothold in the outer ring of forts
has been defeated with heavy loss,
according to the war office.
ROUMANIA-Russia has offe-ed
Roumania the Austrian crown
lands of Bukovina and Transly-
yania as reward if she participates
in the war on the side of the allies.
The crown council will decide
whether the offer is to be &C
cepted early next week. King Carol
is i'll at his summer palace, and is
expected to abdicate if the council
decides to support Russia.
JAPAN-The bombardment Of
Kiaochow, by the combined Anglo
Japanese land and sea forces con-
tinues with violence. Another
japanese mine sweeper has been
sunk. Four were killed.
GERMANY - 1t is officially
stated the French attempt to out
flank the German right has de-
cisively failed, and that the Ger
mans are now driving the allies
back at several points of the north
and south battle line between
Noyon and the Belgian frontier.
The Russian claims of a disaster
to the Germans in Poland are flat
ly contradicted, and it is stated the
Germans are everywhere success
full, and that the situation is en-
tirely satisfactory to the general
staff.
