CzAR'S HEAVY HAND
BRINGS TERROR TO
JEWS OF GALTCIA
Russians Slaughter Many,
According to Report, and
Vast Numbers Desert,
Fearing Muscovite Domii-
nation.

NEW YORK, Sept. a-Reports re-
ceived at the Austro- Hungarian Con-
sulate Indicate that the Russians in
Austrian Galicia are turning on the
| Jcws, and many, according to the dis
| patches, have been slaughtered
The dispatches which, are said to
come from official Austrian sources,
| gave very few details. but said that the
Jews were suffering heavily at the
hands OF the infuriated Russian troops,
whose officers could hardly control their
actions. Large numbers OF Jews in Rus
sian Poland, according to the reports,
are deserting the Russian cause, fearing
the increased domination OF the Russian
Government in the event of a sweeping
victory over the Austrians and Germans
Since the Cars promises of freedom to
the Jews at the beginning Of the war, the
status OF the Jews and their probable ac-
ton lave been a subject of much in
terest.
A resume Of the operations of the Aus
tro-Hungarian army issued by the For
eign Office In Vienna was made public
at the Consulate. 1t says that the battle
near Przemysl will engage practically all
the Austrian forces against large Rus
sian army.
THE small cruiser .Xenta," continues
the statement. while blocking Monte
negro, has hcen attacked by the French
man-of-war Escarmouche and sunk after
n heroic flght No other naval engage
ment has taken place.
Communications of the enemy speak
of the rout of our army In Galicia and
OF Serb victories, of the capture of Cat
taro, etc, which messages are all auda-
cious lies.
ITO date we have 41,ooo Russian and
5000 Serb prisoners. The courage Of our
troops is admirable. The situation in
the interior OF our monarchy is excellent"
It was further announced that three
Austrian ships the Iris, Dinorah and
Baron Way. which were In the Russian
port of Tangaroff, in the Black Sea. have
been captured without giving them the
usual grace to leave the port as pre-
scrbed by international law. None OF
the men of the crew. who were liable to
military service, was made prisoner OF
war, but all were sent TO prison. The
wife Of the captain Of the Iris, with five
children Is said to be retained in a little
hut in the country with scarcely anything
to eat.
Captain stuparich, Of the Martha Wash
ington, of the Austro-American Line,
tied up here, has received a letter from
his wife in Trieste dated September 8 in
which she says that a friend, Doctor
Fravento, an Austrian doctor of the Red
Cross, has been captured near the Ser
Wan border and that both OF his eyes
were put out by the Servians, after which
he was pushed out on the street to shift
for himself.
Hungarian newspapers which have ar
rived at the Consulate speak OF atrocities
said to have been practiced by the Ser
vians and Russians.

HEARS GERMAN GUNS CAN

STOCKHOLM, Sept. "a.

The belief exists here that Germany
has a card up her sleeve in her navy,
not unlike the ~ centimeter (almost IL
nch) guns which have been so destructive
against fortifcatons in Belgium and
France. What this contrivance for sea
service may be is not known, but we'll
informed people say they have informa-
ton OF the existence of a number OF
mysterious craft not described in detail
but classed as part of the German navy.
An attempted invasion Of Great Britain
confidently is expected. The plan of Ger
many seems to be the seizure of the
French side of the English Channel,
where big l7-inch guns with a 2Q-mile
range would cover the German fleet, and
II in turn would protect the transports
carving troops across the channel, which
at Calais-Dover is only 90 miles wide.
Against German land batteries Of such
calibre the British fleet would be power
less.
Norway and Sweden are In an extremely
difficult position. They hate Russia and
have been promised by Germany the In
dependence Of Finland in case Of Ger
manvs success. They fear a Russian
victory and further aggrcssions by that
nation on Scandinavian soil. Il must he

is the best customer OF Scandinavia.

LA FORCE NOIRE"
TERRIBLE WEAPON
IN HANDS OF FRANCE
Algerian Contingent Is Made
Up of Grim Fighting Men,
Relentless Toward Foe,
Devoted to Officers.

PARIS. Sept. "a.
La Force Nolre" the BLACK Army
| of France" as the Turcos now fighting
with the Allies are called, was organized
by Colonel Maugin in 1911. The Turcos
are Arabian light infantry recruited in
Algeria. The force in 1907 consisted of
only about 1000 ScneEalese. Colonel Matt
gain raised the number to $4,000 soldiers
recruited from Senegal, in the Soudan.
Tunis and Morocco.
The supply of men from this source is
almost inexhaustible, and Furthermore,
this source of supply is out of enemy's
reach. It is declared that so long as
only one French port remained in French
hands these terrible African fighters
could be poured in streams into France.
The soldiers of these districts are born
fighters Death in battle is, to them,
the highest distinction one can achieve.
As a result they are relentless in the fury
of their attacks and absolutely fearless.
They never surrender. Their wonderful
physique and almost total imperviousness
to pain keep them fighting on after they
have received wounds under which fight
ers Of white races Succumb.
Colonel Maugin once said of these SOL
diers His sense Of discipline, his devo-
tion to his white officers and the fierce
ness with which he rurls himself at the
enemy arc wonderful"
General Langois. writing in the Temps
In 1909. when the raising Of the present
Algerian force was being discussed. said
The sanguine and fatalistc temper of
the troops of these races makes 1t ter
rihle asset in a shock"
In an article in Gaulois General Bonnet
said: "On the wide battlefields of any
future war the Arabs trained by Cau-
oasians and armed with the terrible
weapons of war of the white races, will
prove unrivaled when the final blow will
have to be devoted to the enemy"
With the troops organized and equipped
In her African possessions the republic |
holds and rules a territory as extensive
as Europe inhabited by 2oo00, 600 people
The use of Arabs in European warfare |
by the republic during the present con-
hict is not the first time this has been
done. Napoleon employed African troops 1
and they were used also in the storming
of Malakhoff. Algeria also was drawn on
for fighting men during the Franco-Ger-
man war of 1870
The early troops raised in Africa by |
France We're recruited mainly from the |
Kabyles and Arabs. The majority OF |
those which came from the Kabyles were

their name to the Zouaves. The three |

fought in the Franco German war lost |

CHINA ADOPTS STERN
MEASURES TO BLOCK
WARLIKE MOVEMENT
President Orders Immediate
Arrest of Agitators En-
deavoring to Plunge En-
pire Into Conflict.
PEKIN, China, Sept. "a.

I-Nl.Nt NHlltt sept. -
The following official proclamation was
posted throughout China today:
The President has declared the neu-
trality of the Chinese Government which
all the people of this country should
strictly observe. During the time of war
the people may rest assured that they
will receive no harm and will have no
cause 10 fear.
1T is, however, much to be feared that
there may be possibly some merchants
and people who nave not yet heen fully
informed Of the actual facts of the situa-
tion, and 1t is not unlikely that there may
be some bad characters, who. taking ad-
vantage Of this critical time, will circulate
rumors with a view to creating panic in
the minds Of the public and thereby create
disturbances. We have. therefore,
ordered the police and soldiers to exer-
else the utmost surveillance over these
pad characters.
The public is hereby once more admon-
ished that IL should peacefully pursue its
da ily occupations and not listen to un-
founded rumors. The public is hereby
cautioned that hereafter, should ony one
comment on the political affairs of the
Chinese and foreign Governments in tea
houses, taverns, hotels and other public
places. and whose gossip should so dis
tort the actual ASPECT of events and mis-
lead the public and create panic in the
minds Of the people, he shall be arrested
and severely dealt with.
The public should tremble and obey"

LONDON. Sept. q.

LONDON, Sept. a.
A Reuter- dispatch from Ghent says {
small force of Belgians, supported b,
an armored train, defeated $500 Ger
mans, who lest many in killed, wounded
and prisoners
The Germans continue entrenchine
about Brussels, constructing strong
earthworks before the sites OF their guns
many OF which have been posted.
German and Belgian troops are fght-
ing at Puers. Part of King Alberts
army has retired to the ramparts OF
Antwerp. The German force at Puers
is reported to have two of the great
siege guns that smashed the forts at
Liegc and Namur.
(Puers Is about eight miles from tile
forts that protect Antwerp on the south
west. This report tends to confirm
dispatches from Ostcnd that the Ger
mans were advancing guns to lombard
Antwerp.
During the last week the Belgian army
has received reinforcements The spirit
of the troops is excellent and they arc
greatly encouraged by the successes
gained during the last few days in
sharp skrmishes with the Germans.
The German forces bent upon subju-
eating Antwerp have their line extend
Ing westward almost into Client. Their
artillery is hard at work on the south
bank of the Scheldt seven miles from
the city. Railway service has been sus-
pended south of Ghent. Antwerp ap-
pears to be menaced more seriously
than ever. The inhabitants. however,
have not ceased to hope that the city
will escape a direct attack.
At Ghent, 1t Is impossible, because of
the meagre reports received, to deter
mine the progress Of events across the
French frontier. IT Is conceded how
over. that whatever may happen to the
German armies in the southwest 1t is
certain that the Kaiser's forces mean
to conquer Antwerp and to remain In
occupation of southern Belgium, re-
Eardless of what price they may be
compelled to pay in lives.
A correspondent of the London Chron-
icle. who is with the Belgium army In
the field, wires that the Belgian army
is pushing on toward Brussels and is
confident of regaining control OF the
city. No statement Is made of the de-
tailed movements of the Belgians.
According to the Chronicle man at Leb-
beke, Octave Verhulst, 80 years old; his
two brothers, Leopold and Arthur, 81 and
10, respectively, were stood against the
charred walls of their home after 1t
had been burned and bayoncted to death
by German soldiers while their relatives
looked on.
Another Ghent dispatch to the Chronicle
quotes a newspaper as saying that 1872
inhabitants of the small Belgian town
of Taminss, in the Namur district, have
been killed, presumably on account o.
some act against the Germans occupying
the district The dead include the priest
and the local notables. After whole

LONDON, Sept. "a.
The Admiralty Office has issued ro-
ply to the statement of the German Min
lister at Copenhagen, alleging that the
English fired on German swimmers fol.
lowing the naval battle near Heligoland
The Admiralty states that when tho
German torpedo boat destroyer y-1S7

British destroyers to cease their fire and
lower their boats to save the survivors

This is doubtless the incident referred
