NEW MOVES IN THE WAR
GAME AND WHAT THEY MEAN
By ]. W. It. MASON,

Former European Manager OF The
United Press.
NEW YORK. Oct. 3O.-O1 a. m.)-
Turkeys participation in the Pan-Eu-
ropean war, represents the first diplo-
matte success scored by Germany
since the crisis of civilization began.
Germany's military victories appar-
entity have been cleverly used by her
diplomats in Constantinople to per-
suade the Young Turks that the al
lies will be defeated at the end of
the war, leaving Germany and her
friends masters of the destinies OF
Europe.
From the standpoint Of Turkish
statesmanship, the chance Turkey is
taking represents, it is true, a
gamblers throw. but that is the only
remaining way for the Turks to re-
habilitate themselves. If the allies
win the war, the Turkish empire
now will be thrust back into Asia
Minor, while II the German armies
are successful, Turkey will be her
self again. To gain the alliance
of the Turks, Germany has had to
persuade Constantinople only that
there is a fair chance for ultimate
German victory.
Judged exclusively in the light Of
German interests, the Ottoman rush
into the war is a double triumph. II
gives half a million reinforcements e
the German armies, making possible ,
| strong offensive against Russia. Mor'
useful to Germany even than the Turk
ish armies in the field win be Turkisl
territory in the peace conference aftei

If the allies should be successful il

WASHINGTON, Oct. so.-Odessa was
bombarded last night and American
property was destroyed. according to a
State Department dispatch from the
PetrogTad charge today. This informa
ton was based on a report from the
American consul at odessa. The amount
of property destroyed was not stated.
It was assumed in official circles here
that the bombardment was done by the
Turks.
The message announcing the bonn
bardment was dated at Petrograd at n
o'clccl; last night, and indicated that the
bombardment had occurred Wednesday
night. There was nothing about the
message, however, to show whether any
notice Of bOmbardment had been given
in advance.
Because of the destruction of
American property this government
today made inquiry concerning the
subject of previous notice. In case
of movable goods, damages might be
recovered, provided no notice had
been given. Recovery of damages,
however, IN any event is admittedly
a difficult proposition. That the
situation as far as this government
is concerned would not go further
than TO seek monetary reparatlor
was the belief here.
While the message was not defnit,
on the point of who made the attack
the belief persisted that only Turkey
would be in a position TO make suct
an onslaught

movement. sending ten divisions Of
cavalry from Novo Georguievsk, as
indicated In the above map, around
the extreme German left TO strike at
the German rear. The suddenness of
the attack produced a panic. and the
German retreat on LOwiscz and
Skierniewicz degenerated into fight.
The Russians are continuing the pur-
suit. evidently intending TO give the
Germans no opportunity to make a
stand and resume the defensive short
Of their previously prepared posi-
tions along the Sleslan frontier,
which are also indicated on the map.

FRANCE-It is stated here
that the Germans are again es-
saying the offensive in the
north. but that so far they have
made no material progress,
while at many points along the
line, especially ON the eastern
frontier, the French are adj
