that the next big battle will be fought
on German and Belgian soil and that
the Germans will be strictly upon the
defensive. would not be surprised
to see Germany suing for peace by
the beginning OF 1915"
Wounded French and British soldiers
arriving in this city report tremendous
fighting along the line, especially at
the western end, where the Allies have
been making a supreme effort to shat
ter the invaders flank, the losses are
frightful Every trench that the Ger
mans have been compelled to give up
is full of dead. The French generals
telegraphed to General Gallleni the
military governor Of Paris, to rush
trainload OF chloride of lime. The Ger
man trenches will be filled with lime
and the battlefelds will be sprinkled.
Losses Of the Germans have been
appalling. Some unofficial estimates
place the invaders losses in the battle
of the Marne and the battle of the
Asne at 100000 killed, .ounded and
prisoners. In the absence of official
estimates only guesses can be made.
The eighteenth day of the big en-
gagement found the German defensive
apparently much weaker and the Allies,
on account of the strength impaired by
fresh troops, have been able to occupy
more favorable positions. 1t is said

PETROGRAD, sept. 5O
The Russian advance guards are now
within 100 miles of Budapest, with an un-
fortified country before them, through
three pathways in the Carpathians, at
Dukla Pass, Sanok Pass and Uzsok Pass,
the columns detached to advance into
Hungary are pouring out on the plains.
Through two of the passes are railroads,
which the Russians now control to points
in the foothills on the Hungarian side
of the Southern Galcian border
The force which advanced to Sanok
Pass was opposed by German artillery
sent to cut off its movement. The Ger
mans were defeated in engagements
south of the city of Sanok and retreated
TO the northwest, abandoning their guns.
The Russian force moved on through
the deflle.
In the Uzsok Pass the Russians dis
lodged the Hunveds from three positions
and gained the further side, where they
are now descending to the Hungarian
plateau.
There are no fortihcations south OF the
Carpathians to stay the progress of thN
armies from the north.
THE GALICIAN CAMPAIGN.
In Galicia the campaign is quiet. The
southern column has taken Dukla. a
railroad centre.
The fighting at Dulka is believed to
have been with the Austrians. who fell
back TO Jaslo and attempted to rally

the Jasielka River.
Unofficial udvlces state that part of
General Ruzsky's forces has already
reached Tarnow, and that lighting has
been in progress there for "a hours The
capture of Tarnow will leave the road
clear for an advance on Cracow.
That the Germans expect no attempt
by the Russians to take Cracow by
storm, but expect General Ruzsky to
rest content with an investment of that
city, while his main forces pursue their
march on Silesia, is indicated by dis
patch from Warsaw stating that the

The Germans used heavy guns
against the forts, and Belgian
artillery replied vigorously The fact
tnal the German ordnance is much
heavier than that of the Belgians has
enabled the Germans to attack at
very short range.

this afternoon:
The German attacks have been re-
pulsed with heavy losses. The de-
tenders are confident of resisting a
siege.
