GERMANS IN RETREAT
IS RUSSIAN REPORT

London, Aug. 25.-Announcement
has been made in st. Petersburg that
the Germans are in full retreat and
crossing the River Angerapp in East
Prussia, according to the st. Peters
burg correspondent of the Reuter-
Telegram company. The correspond
ent adds that the passage across the
river near Bargehmen is in the hands
of the Russians. To the west of the
Mazur the Russians occupied Johan-
nesburg, Ortelsburg and Willenburg
"Soldau, fifty-eight miles northwest of
Thorn" the correspondent continues,
has been occupied. The inhabitants
fed. The Germans evacuated Neiden-
burg, seventy miles southwest of Elb-
ing, after setting the place on fire.
"The battle of Gumbinnen is claim
ed to have decided the fate of Prus-
sia on this side of the vistula river"

ALLIES EXPECT To
HOLD BACK GERMANS

Paris, Aug. 25.-The following off,
cial announcement was made here:
THE great battle between the
greater part of the forces of England
and France against the bulk of the
German army continues. The mission
of the English and the French is to
hold virtually the entire German army
in Belgium while our Russian allies
pursue their success in the East.
The Russian line on the German
frontier extends from Tilsit to Inyer-
burg and Arys. The German popula-
tion is evacuating Willenberg, ninety
one miles southeast of Koenigsberg,
because of the arrival of Russian
forces from Poland, which already
have penetrated a considerable dis
tance toward Solda."

GERMAN COLUMNS
MARCH SOUTHWARK

London, Aug. 25.-The Ostend cor
respondent of the Daily Mail says that
the German columns are marching
southwark to Valenciennes, on the
Scheldt, thirty-one miles southeast of
Lille, one proceeding by way of Nj
move, Grammont and Lessinges and
the other going by way of Hal,
Braine-le-Comte and Mons, Belgium.
They are moving with great speed.
Further northwest advanced parties
have appeared and done damage sue
cessively at Thielt and Lichtervelde.
II is suggested that this means a
dash upon Roubaix, one of the wealth
lest of French towns, or upon Lille.
In that case the movement toward
valenciennes probably would be an
encircling one.
