department has announced the
occupation for military purposes
of strategical important island

BRITISH SEE NOTHING
FAVORABLE TO GERMANS

4 LONDON, Oct. 2O.-N othing
has been received up to the pres
ent from the German intelll-
gence department to counteract
the British Impression conveyed
in the news, both official and un-
official published here, that the
tide of the battle both in the
eastern and western theaters is
not for the moment flowing in
favor of Germany. The picture,
however, continues to show plain
that it is impossible except for
the commanders on the spot, ac-
curateIy to gauge the effect of
the momentary changes and the
ultimate result so it may well be
that the German general staff;
when it considers the time right,
will present scene of an entire
~ different aspect.
The Belgian minister at Lon
don has no confirmation of the
story that the allies have reoc-
cupied Ostend but in any case
the German hold on the seaport
must be somewhat precarious if
! the allies still retain the posi-
tions assigned to them in the
latest French official statement.
Should the allies push their
wedge beyond Roulers, where its
point rested yesterday, Ostend
would be in considerable danger
of being cut off from the rest Of
the German army. The Germans
are making great effort TO break
through their opponents lines in
the neighborhood of Arras,
whereas General Jofre's state
ment points out that fighting has
proceeded for ten days without a
respite.
News of the conflict of mil
lions of men along the Vistula
river in Russian Poland is mist
" of a negative character. Each
of the vast armies claims that
its opponents is on the defensive
