to break off small boHghs. The for

gathered his firewood by hook and

nor crook are now in use, the express
sion is as popular as it was in the
middle ages.

WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
SUMMARIZED BY THE AS
SOCIATED PRESS.

New York. Nov. Especial
Once again the armies struggling for
mastery In the coast territory along
the North sea are the object of in
tense interest in the European war,
for il is in this region that the Ger
mans are concentrating their great
forces with the object of smashing
through the allied lines to reach the
French ports on the English channel.
Already the Germans have gained
an important stragetic point in the
capture of Dixmude. Their latest of
fetal announcement is of an extreme
ly optimistic nature from the German
standpoint, for they report good
progress around Ypres, the taking OF
Dixmude with 500 prisoners, the cap
ture of the first line of the allied po-
sition west of Langemarck with
1900 prisoners, the repulse of fierce
counter attacks by the British and
the holding of the heights TO the
north of Armentieres and a further
advance to the southwest of Lille.
In comparison the French official
statement is meager. 1t confines it.
self to the mere announcement that
the Germans have continued their eff.
forts without achieving any new re
suits.
The British parliament has beer
assembled to take whatever steps are
needed, as the speech from the
throne put it, for "the prosecution &c
a victorious issue" of the war. Pre-.
| mier Asquith, in his speech at the
| opening of the parliament, declared
| that he doubted whether the wal
| would last as long as had been orig.
! inally predicted, but that it would
last long was certain. The premier
announced that the chancellor of thu
exchequer would lay before the house
| on Monday next financial proposals
including the question of a loan FOL
| which the government is going t.
| ask authority. He said further tina
| there would be a vote for additiona
| men.
King George, in his speech, assert
| ed that in conjunction with the al
lies he has striven to preserve
friendly attitude towards Turkey
but that bad counsels and alien in
fuences had driven her into a polio.
of wanton and defiant aggression.
He expressed appreciation for thu
proofs which his Mussulman subject'
have fastened to give of their loya
devotion and support"
In East Prussia, Holland and Ga
licia the Russians apparently ar
making progress. Vienna admits
that the Austrian troops have evacu
| ated central Galicia, although it |
| explained that this movement hai
| been a voluntary M The Austrian
however, claim favorable results il

Pierre, Nov. 13.-The following
is the full text of the quarantine
