GREAT ARMIES
 ARE INVOLVED.

PARIS, Oct. l8.-The battle lina extends from Ostend on the seacoast in Belgium to the Alps in Switzer- land On the one side are 1000 900 German soldiers, and facing them are 2500,O00 British and French troops There is more or less fight ing extending the entire line, but the greatest contest is centerin2 along the seacoast, where the allies are making a desperate attempt to keep the Germans from taking the channel ports, facing the British Isles.
 The Germans, it is reported here, have put the flower of their army near the ocean. where it is expect, ed that the most stubborn contest of the war will be fought within a few days. The major part of the German troops near the coast is composed of cavalry and artillery.

BANK Is ROBBED BY UNMASKED MEN

SEDRO-WOOLLEY, Wash, Oct. IS. Five unmasked men, all supposed to be foreigners, held up and robbed the officers of the First National bank of this city last night, escaping with $2O,O00 in gold.
 The bank had been warned pre- viously that an attempt would be made to rob it and a special guard under the city marshal was detailed to watch the place. It was during that the robbery was accomplished.
 It is believed that the robbery of the bank here was one of the most daring ever accomplished in this state At the time the bank was robbed, the place had number ot customers in it. The men walked boldly in, covered the people with revolvers, and secured the money, As they turned to leave the bank, they paused at the door and delber- ately fired their revolvers over the heads of the patrons of the bank. Instantly the cashier returned the fire but before he could get to the door and spread the alarm, the rob bers had made good their escape.
 Posses of men are now searching the surrounding country for the rob- bers, and it is quite certain that they will be captured. The men in the bank at the time the deed was committed declare that the men were not Americans, for they spoke in broken accents. Their descrip- tions have clearly been described, and if located their Identification should be easy.

FACTORY IS DISGUISED FORT.

EDINBURGH, Scotland, Oct. 1S.- This city was thrown into state of much excitement today when the government seized what was suppos- ed to be a German factory and found indications that it was being made into a German fortress. It was supposed that the factory was en- ploying 800 people, but it was found that there were only six people em- ployed while the remainder were pre- pairing Notifications. That the fac tory was planned to be disguised

 were suitable for bases for cannon

BUNNELL WINS
 VOTES IN THE
 FIRST DIVISION
ING A HIT IN SOUTH EASTERN ALASKA.

| JUNEAU, Oct. 1S.-CharleS T.. Bun I nell, Democratic nominee for delegate
 to congress, is making a decided hit I with the people of the First division He spoke at Skagway last Tuesday and at Haines Wednesday, and the meetings were attended by at least | 50 per cent more people than were | those held by James Wickersham,
 MT. Bunnell's opponent. That MT,
 Bunnell will carry both Haines and 1 Skagway seems assured
 Mir. Bunnell will speak tomorrow night at Juneau. and it is expected
 that he will be received here as enthusiastically as he was in Skag- way and Haines. On October 20, he will speak at Douglas, md this will be followed by a series of meet ings at Sitka, Petersburg, Wrangell, Ketchikan and other towns along the coast.
 One of the contentious made by
 Mr Bunnell in his speeches, which
 received much applause, was his as sertion that MT, Wickersham should
 have centered his attentions on the needs of his constituents, instead of taking his personal quarrels and
 grievances to Washington.
 The Democratic leaders here ex-
 press entire confidence that the com
 plete party ticket will be carried in this division. The assumption is
 based upon the enthusiasm with
 which Mr Bunnell is received in
 various places here and in telegraphic lplaces.
 Telegrams have been received here from three sources within the last two days, in which it is asserted that the Democrats of the Third division rare absolutely confident of success lat the coming election.
 It is also reported here in tele-
 grams from Valdez and Seward, that Delegate Wickersham in his speeches at those places had assured the peo-
 pie of each place that he would give them his support in getting the
 railroad terminus. When he was at
 Haines. he told the people there
 that he had worked for having the
 railroad start from that place. The telegraphic advices received
 here state that Mir Wickersham
 was dissatisfied with the attendance
 of his first meeting in Valdez, and for that reason called second
 one, in which he made violent at
 tack upon Colonel Richardson, chair
 man of the Alaska Road commission, |it served to aid Mir Bunnell, who is Mir Richardson was detrimental to lMr Wickersham's interests, and that it serverd to aid MT. Bunnell, who is
 known to be free from personal feel ing in his politics.

 OBJECTIVE POINT.

LONDON, Oct. 1S.-The objective point of the German army at the present time is Dunkirk, the first French port west of the Belgian frontier. That the Germans will have difficult task in taking that place is the report made by the British war office in this city, owin 2 to the open country that surrounds it.

GERMANS AFTER RAILROAD LINE.

LONDON, Oct 18-A determined attempt is being made by the Ger man troops to break the lines of al lies at some weak point in such a way that will permit the Teutons to gain control of at least part of the railroad entering Calais, one of the most important ports in France The allies are making just as determined efforts to drive the Germans back in a northeasterly d. rection.

his friends. The only thing that offered a solution was the fact that the members of MT Crossley s church, the local Presbyterian church, were known to have been active in circulating petitions for Mir Cross ley's retention. Thus it was reason ed that the Rev. G. G. Bruce, pastor of the Presbyterian church, would probably know something about the matter.
 | Accordingly on last Friday afternoon MT. and Mrs Roth called at MT. Bruce's home. and the latter was asked if he knew anything about there having been charges presented to Washington reflecting upon Mr, Roth's character.
 Concerning this interview, Mir | Bruce refuses to make any kind of statement, but it is asserted by Mir Roth that Mr. Bruce acknowledged l lIldl ie hHSW ludI SLdl SCo hou bCSh sent to Washington against MT. Roth, setting forth that MT. Roth had been saloon keeper at one time and had been taken from the TOW" in an intoxicated condition.
 Mir Roth indignantly denies all Of the charges, and is determined to prove to the public that they are unfounded, even if it is necessary to take the matter to court in order to vindicate himself
 When asked by The Citizen to eX plain what had passed between him self and Mr. Bruce, MT Roth said in part as follows:
 Mrs. Roth was with me when 1 interviewed MT. Bruce. assured him that there were no secrets be , tween me and Mrs. Roth, and if he knew of any charges filed against me, not to hesitate to tell of them before Mrs. Roth
 "Mr Bruce admitted that he had sent a telegram to his brother in New York relating to affidavits re- flecting on my character, and that the affidavits had been forwarded to Washington with the petition ask ing for the retention of MT. Cross ley. He told me that he had re- Quested his brother in New York to see personally that the telegram was placed in the hands of both the President and the attorney general.
 From my conversation with MT. Bruce he made it plain to me that he had been diligently searching the history of my life for something that he could use against me in the fight against my confirmation. He ad- mitted that he had even sent tele- grams to my old home in Visalia, California. and to Fresno, in that state, to ascertain if I had been dis barred from practice there. He con fessed that he had found that had not been disbarred.
 This shows how eager they are to find something against my char acter. My standing before the bar in California was always of the highest and most honorable nature" When questioned further, MT. Roth said:
 I believe that there is conspir- acy working against me for the sole purpose of preventing my confirma- tion as district attorney until the senate adjourns."
 The Citizen asked Mir Bruce for l an explanation of the charges sup
