LITTLE CHANGE IN
EASTERN SITUATION

London, Oct. 12.-Advices from the
eastern theater of the war indicate
the situation is little changed. The
report that the Austrian city OF
Przemysl is on fire lacks confirmation.
The Austrians insist that tile Rus
SLAMS before their positions are being
repulsed. A dispatch from Wirbal-
len, Russian Poland, says the Rus.
SLAMS again have decided to take the
offensive.
The Germans heretofore have com
planned that the Russians refused to
leave their trenches, but the dispatch
says for the last three nights the Rus
SLAMS have attacked along the entire
front from near Wilkowyszki, north
of Augustowo. to point below Lyca
in East Prussia. The attacks were
repulsed, the Russian losses being
heavy German soldiers are reported
to be in the best of spirits The Rus
sian official statement indicates prob
able change of strategy, though II
does not say what this will be.

NEXT BLOW TO Be
AIMED AT ENGLAND

London. Oct. 12.-The correspond
ent of the Express in Paris sends the
following:
THE immediate objective of the
German army is no longer Paris. but
the channel ports. To sum up the
German plan-the first blow at Paris
having failed, the second blow must
be aimed at England.
"The new lineup OF the opposing
forces means that Northern France is
destined to suffer desolation similar
to that already visited on Belgium.
All of Frances rich cities in the north
have been marked for certain destruc.
ton and ruin.
THE French general staff is still
confident of success, but ii is recog.

SIEGE OF ANTWERP
LASTED TEN DAYS

London, Oct 12.-The siege of Ant
werp began Sept. 20, so the Germans
took just ten days to reduce the
formidable Notifications which sur
rounded the temporary capital of the
Belgians. The Germans, however.
for long time had prepared the way
for the attack on Antwerp by taking
a number of towns In its vicinity.
The first direct attack on the Ant
werp Notifications was against the
forts at Waelhem and Wavre-St. Cath.
crimes. These were reduced In a
couple of days by the aid of the big
siege guns. Meanwhile the forts at
Lierre and Koningshoyckt also had
been attacked and these and others of
the outside line of Notifications were
taken last week.
The last few days has seen the
fighting advance to the inner line OF
forts and along the Scheldt, principal
ly at Schoonaerde. Zeppelin bomb
attacks, which did much damage and
killed scores of people, added to the
terror OF the inhabitants.
Antwerp suffered terribly from the
bombardment and the losses among
the civilian population have been
heavy. The city was crowded. not
only with its normal population OF
more than 100000 persons. but also
with other thousands who had sought
refuge there. ALI stories coincide In
relating the terrible suffering and
mental torture of these unfortunates
struggling to leave the danger zone

TO RELIEVE FOOD SCARCITY
Hungary Suspends Tax on imports of
Grain.

Vienna. Oct. 12.-The repeated ef-
forts OF the Austrian government
finally have succeeded in persuading
the Hungarian cabinet to consent to
a suspension of the import duties on
grain, but as a part concession to tue
Hungarian agricultural interests 1t is
understood the government will not
attempt to fix any scale of maximum
prices for the grain market
The spirit manufacturers have been
forbidden to use maize and potatoes
and therefore must use sugar beets
and molasses as substitutes.
1t Is hoped that these measures will
tend to prevent further increase in
the price of breadstuffs, as the rise
thus far is causing much hardship
among the poor.

London, Oct. 12.-Realizing the
hopelessness of continuing its strug.
gle against the German guns Antwerp
has surrendered.
The great cathedral of Notre Dame,
built in the Thirteenth century and
renowned as one of the most noted
specimens of Gothic architecture now
extant, has been damaged.
The defenders had mounted rapid
firers on the roof of the structure.
despite the warnings of the Germans
that If it was used for military pur.
poses 1t would be bombarded.
Two-thirds of the population had
left the city before the surrender.
King Albert had led out of the
beleaguered city all the Belgian army
except the few artillerists necessary
to man the guns of the Antwerp forts.
When the surrender of the city was
decided upon the retreating troops
blew up the famous fort of Merxem,
north OF the city, to prevent its being
used in future operations by the Ger.
mans.
Few Forts Still Holding Out.
A few of the inner ring of forts are
still occupied by Belgian troops, who
are keeping up desultory fire against
the German forces. The city itself,
however, Is under German domination
and it is only question of time un.
til all the forts are silenced.
Their continued resistance win
