AUSTRIAN RUSE'
ENDS IN DISASTER
SOLDIERS ADVANCE BEHIND
SCREEN OF BRANCHES BUT
ARE DISCOVERED.

Petrograd, Oct. 21.-Correspondence
from Warsaw giving the details of
the recent capture of an Austrian bat
talon in the region of Stry, Galicia,
relates how the Austrians bearing
branches of trees heavy with foliage
to screen their movements advanced
at nightfall The Russians feigning
ignorance of their approach lessened
the musketry fire, allowing the
Austrians to draw near but meanwhile
bringing their machine guns and light
artillery into position.
In the morning, so the story goes,
the Russians opened an unexpected
and deadly fire upon the emboldened
Austrians, who after a momentary
hesitation, surrendered without re-
sistance before Russian bayonet
charge Among the prisoners taken
were fifteen officers. Six machine
gunes were captured.
A correspondent on the East Prus-
sian front says that activity has been
resumed along the entire line from
Suwalki to Lyck, where the Germans
had been reinforced German assaults
were repulsed and sharp Russian
counter attacks made The Germans
are engaged in skirmishing and for
aging and appear to have no intention
of advancing in force.

rel came out. Mullen drove the knlfe
to his heart :.
The express train does not stop at
Hillside but the engineer put on tue

London, Oct. 21.--The correspond
ents of the London newspapers in the
field have succeeded today in getting
through some details Of the fighting
along the channel coast of Belgium.
The reports agree that the Germans
have met with reverse and it is said
that the Germans are retreating..
The Belgian correspondent of the
Telegraph in his account of the fight
ing reports that British warships
bombarded villages which the Ger
mans had occupied and also the coun-
try to the south of these places.
Then the order was given for the
infantry to advance" he says, and
'and the rattle of machine guns sup
plemented the noise of the naval guns.
The Germans were caught between
two fires and their line began to
waver and slowly gave way before the
pressure of the infantry.
1.-The strength of the attack was
then increased and soon the whole
German line resting on the coast was
in full retreat"
In dispatch from Flushing sent at
1 o'clock this morning, the correspond
ent of the Daily Mail declares that the

BRITISH PEOPLE.

Apart from the great object of the ex-
termination of the military German
base in the Pacific Japanese ships and
sQuadrons are everywhere giving US
help of an invaluable character in the
protection Of trade, in the search for
the enemy's ships and in conveying
ships to decisive theaters of the con-
f1ict."

follows:
"On behalf of the imperial Japanese
navy tender warmest thanks for your

Offensive Move By Allies in
Northern France Meets
Stern Resistance
LINES FORCED TO
GO ON DEFENSIVE
Barbed Wire Obstruction of
Invaders Is Source of
Worry to Defenders

Paris. Oct. 21.-The outcome of the
battle in the north, according to the
Judgment of observers in Paris. still
remained undecided this morning.
Ihe furious contest in this part of
Belgium and France is regarded here
as now having reached its height. The
Germans, who at first apparently
yielded to the offensive of the allies,
are now forcing the lines of the
French and the English. In this they
have been assisted by troops from
Antwerp and all the other German
forces available in Belgium.
The allies, however, apparently are
fighting with the greatest ardor and
determination to take the important
city of Lille, in spite of the extra
ordinary resistance Of the enemy.
The attacks of the allies which have
been accompanied by progress at vari-
GUS points, have been followed always
by counter-attacks on the part of the
Germans, who, In the opinion of the
French, are fighting to the limit Of
their energy Around Lille and in the
thickly populated districts where the
fighting has been from house to house,
the operations are difficult and pro-
gress has been slow, especially in the
face Of the barbed wire fences put up
by the Germans
These wire distractions have proved
a serious obstacle to the allied ad-
vance, and many means of surmouont-
ing have been considered. It Is
realized here that 1t may be necessary
TO make sacrifices, tn this end and 1t
has been suggested. that the, men
selected for the task be armed, among
other things, with bucklers such as
were used successfully in attacking
the notorious automobile bandits of
Paris in their refuge in the suburbs Of
the city.
Special Apparatus Needed.
It is proposed that there be sent
along with the regimental trains ap-
paratus which may be used in the
destruction of the accessory defenses
of the enemy, this equipment to be in
the hands of men charged especially
with it's use. 1t is considered that
measures Of this kind should not be
spurned in view of the fact thIt the
Germans are conducting their warfare
in such a scientific manner.

Copenhagen, Oct. 21.-The

there is a certain amount of
anxiety about the situation
manifesting itself in Germany.
He explains though, that a de-
cision is likely to come like
thief in the night" and that 1t
will more probably be on the
east front rather than in the
west.
while fresh masses oftroops
can be brought without hind
rance over SEAS" he says, "they
constitute an awkward adver-
sary. Although the unity of
their handling-if they invaded
Germany-is to be doubted,
Germany has still somewhat
hard task which must not be
forgotten in waiting for the de-
cision."

veg, according to the Tageblatt
is being attacked in certain in
fluential circles as responsible
for the war.
