GERMANS IN LORRAINE
BLOCK FRENCH ADVANCE
Strong Fortifications Erected Where
Invasion Was Planned.
LONDON, Sept. %


All reports received from the battle
fields of France indicate that the blood
lest conflict of the war may be in progress
today. The War Office refuses all COM
ment except TO say that the British and
allied lines are holding, and that the sit
uation is unchanged.
Unable To shell the Allies from their
positions on the left centre the Germans
have resorted to the bayonet The
French and British troops have met them,
steel to steel, and II is certain that enor-
nous losses have been sustained
The German attacks have been re-
pulsed, II Is declared. and though the
casualties of the Allies may be stagger-
ing, the losses of the troops of the
Kaiser endeavorins to pierce the allied
lines must have been even heavier.
The advance of the French lines 10 Las
sgny has revived the belief here that
the determined movement to envelop the
army Of General Won Kiuk NAV vet bs
successful. In spite of a counter attack,
which reports indicate the Germans in
stituted, the French lines We're extended
eight miles west OF Noyon evident" as
part of a movement toward Roye,
bringing the Allies nearer a position for
successful movement upon the German
rear.
The original line of the French often
siYe into Lorraine is now blocked by
the Germans. This is indicated by the
Information which has reached the
French War Office that fortihcations
are being erected around Define and
south of Chateau Salins. This was the
line OF the French advance in the ini-
tial movements, and the German forces
are reported as being strongly en-
trenched there,

COPENHAGEN, sept. ~
young Englshman who has just ar
rived here from East Prussia, tells Of the
terrible scenes that followed the Russian
avalanche that was so vigorously precipi-
tated on the part of the German Empire.
He was the last Englshman to pass
through Konigsberg before its investment
by the Cars troops, and he and some
rich Russian refugees who have also
reached Copenhagen. speak of the dreadful
scenes on the German side of the frontier
of every town they passed being choked
with wounded brought in from the battle
field, of fearful suffering among the Rus
sian peasantry. and of the harsh treat
ment shown to foreigners by German viii
layers, who spat upon and stoned their
enemies in the streets.
THE railway line" he said, was thick
with transport trains filled with wounded.
They were huddled together, and some #
them were hanging out of the windows
gasping for fresh air. At most Of the big
stations in East Prussia nurses and doc
tors We're waiting on the platform to ar
range the bRndages of the wounded Ger
mans We passed through towns of ter
rified inhabitants, and the wounded were
everywhere The less severely hurt were
conveyed back as near as possible to the
central part of the Crnntry, 50 as to make
room for the urgent cases that could not
be removed.
I'm some towns Englishmen, French
men and Russians were very harshly
treated especially by subordinate Off
cials. Disgusting remarks We're hurled
at them by the Germans. Sometimes
they were openly assaulted, and this i'll
feeling became intensified as the Russian
army advanced AS a result the Rus
sian refugees fed in terror and the Eng
lish there were also treated with con-
tinual ignominy and insult.
AT Stettin. however, the feeling
toward foreigners was exceedingly good
There are. it Is said, about 1000 Russian
refugees there and these are without any
means whatever.
Il should Ike it stated" this English
man adds, that the official in charga
OF these Russian peasants and harvesters
is one of the most kind-hearted men
have ever met. \ Russian girl, obviously
Of very good family, was brought to
Stettin and reported that she had been
subjected to very cruel treatment on the
She was absolutely penniless,

BORDEAUX, Sept. %.


Proclamations have been posted in all
towns in France that are occupied by the
Germans, stating that private property
will be protected and that peaceful citi-
2cns will not be molested, but that any
civilians acting in a way detrimental 10

destroys railroad bridges or road, or COM
mits any act in detriment to the Ger
mans will be shot

GERMANS QUARREL
AND PETTY STRIFES
SPLIT ARMY CORPS
Prussian and Bavarian
Troops Fly at Each Others $
lhroats on Charges Of
Favoritism.
ANTWERP, Sept. p.

ANTWERP, Sept. 22
Quarrels between the Bavarian and
Prussian troops of the German army
stationed In Brussels are reported ia
have reached such point today that
serious trouble is feared by the ofTicers
IL Is rumored that many quarrels during
the last week reached a point whers
blows and shots were exchanged and that
several German soldiers were killed by
their brothers In arms.
The Ill feeling between the two bodia,
OF troops has been caused by the fact
that the Prussians have defiled the DOR.
traits of the Queen of Belgium. who, be.
fore her marriage, was a Bavarian Prin-
cess. When the Bavarians called on the
Prussians to stop the Prussans ignored
them.
Another factor that is said to have in.
famed the Bavarians toward the Prls-
slams is the fact that they claim the
Prussians are the favored soldiers of the
Kaiser.
1t is said that when the Bavarians vera
called out for war duty, they were not
told that 1t was for actual service but
simply for maneuvers Then they were
rushed off to the front without chance
to put their domestic affairs in order
The Bavarians contend it is said, that
the Prussians had warning that they
would have to go into battle and there
fore, were able to adjust their home af-
fairs before leaving.
1t has been reported from time to tins
that the Prussian generals were sending
the Bavarians into the thickest of the
fighting, where thousands were killed
and wounded, and that they have been
saving the Prussians.
