It was Wheat who made a home run

was Wheat who scored the winning

friend Dalton fielded his position in
faultless style, but he didn't do any
thing at the bat, although he worked
the opposing pitchers for three free

Petrograd. The news Monday
seems to confirm the Russian reports
that the Russians have inflicted an
other crushing defeat on the Austrians
who, on the right, were supported by
some German divisions.
BY the capture OF Tomaszow, the
Russians drove wedge between the
Austrian army which had invaded Po-
land as far as Opole, Krasnostav and
Zamosc and the army which they de-
feated at Lemberg, which, although it
lost heavily in killed, wounded, pris-
oners and guns, managed to reform to
some extent and undertake the often

Frightful losses have been suffered
ports.
The Germans, who reinforced the
Austrians, according to latest advices,
shared in the defeat. They are trying
to reach the fortress at Przemysl, and
the rear guard is endeavoring to keep
off the Russian cavalry which is pur-
suing them.
Austria had in Poland and Galicia
an army estimated at 100000 men,
with $500 guns. At Lemberg, Aus
tria lost many thousands of men in
killed, wounded and prisoners.
1t is now stated. although not Off
cially, that the total number of pris-
oners amounts to 100000, and that a
thousand field guns were taken, be-
sides the guns in the captured forts
and an immense amount of war ma

London, Sept 15-Except for the
army commanded by the Crown
Prince. which has been attacking Ver-
dun, the German forces have fallen
back all along the line. according to
the French official report, issued Mon
day afternoon.
From Nancy to the Vosges they have
withdrawn from French territory,
while on the extreme right General
Won Kluck and General Won Buelow
continue to retreat to the northeast
before the French and British, even
giving up their defensive position on
the river Aisne between Compeigne
and scissors.
Further west, the German detach-
ments that held Amiens have moved
northeastward to try to rejoin the
German army on the right at st. Quen-
tin. 1t is possible that all the Ger
mans in northwest France have done
likewise, otherwise they would be in
danger of being cut off In the center.
Another defensive position behind
Rheims has been given up and in the
Argonne region a general retreat is
taking place toward the forest Of Bel
noue and Triancourt.
The allies are pushing their adyan-
tage and doing their utmost to turn
the retreat into disaster by stern
pursuit on perhaps the broadest scale
yet known in war.
On the right they are in good posi-
ton to continue the offensive. If the
men and horses are not too tired for
further effort. They are based on a
strong line running from the Marine
to the fortresses through the hilly
country south Of Argonne.
While the allies left, composed
largely of fresh troops with heavy
force of cavalry under General Pau, is
wheeling around SO as to drive Gener-
ais Won Kluck and Won Buelow
toward Ardennes and Luxembourg,
General Pau's army by few more
marches by La Fere and Laon might
cut communications between the re-
treating Germans and Belgium.
The British who Sunday took nearly
all the crossings on the river Aisne
and captured many prisoners, are now
north Of that river and are pushing the
attack that would assist in forcing the
Germans to evacuate Rheims.
The center, somewhere between
Chalons and Rheims, is making an
effort to recapture the latter city,
which would be one of the most popu-
lar victories that could be announced
to Frenchmen.
Should these movements be crowned
with success and Laon and Rheims
again fall into the hands Of the allies.
the Germans would have only one line
OF communication with Germany,
through Rethel, and even that might
be cut.

That the Germans have been re-

not an indication that they are beaten.

their lines of communication with
their bases of supplies were naturally
weak. When attacked vigorously with

both front and flank, the kaiser's army

been so heavy they have been forced
