!: r -::MOvING ON OSTEND o.
German Forces May Take Important
North Sea Port

London, Oct 1.-THE news of Ger.
man movements between Antwerp
and Ostend up to the present is frag-
mentary and contradictory as to be al.
most worthless.
The Germans are maintaining the
customary secrecy and reports com.
ing from Belgium and Dutch sources
OF heavy repulse to the Germans with
losses suspiciously large and round in
numbers are looked at with askance
nowadays.
The capture of Ostend, it is con-
ceded, would be worth the possession
OF many Antwerps to the Germans, so
it is taken for granted they will not
enter the popular seaside resort with
out fighting for every foot of the way.
Great events depend on the result of
the battle now in progress on the line
of Lassigny and Lens and the other
operations connected Herewith and
in which the three German army
corps released from the siege of Ant
werp, will try to take part.
The British troops which retired
from Antwerp before the German oc-
cupation, with the exception of those
who are now interned on Dutch soil
as result of having crossed the bor-
der, have been swallowed as compile
tely as if they had been buried under
the ruined forts. For military rea-
sons their position and the progress
OF hostilities in Belgium must remain
obscure until the turn of events
brings them sharply to the fore again
as was the case when, after the fall of
Antwerp, the British public learned
for the first time that these forces had
assisted the garrison.

GERMANS ARE BORING IN
Fierce Attack on Antwerp May Change
Program Of War.

Fierce Attack on Antwerp May Change
Program Of War.
London, Oct. 1O.-The situation in
Antwerp is terrible, according to a
dispatch to the Reuter- Telegram
company from Mulst, Belgium, sent at
midnight. Many houses have been de.
stroyed in the bombardment, and the
populace panic stricken and driven
from their homes, are sleeping in the
roads with their children and old per-
sons in the outlying districts. There
is no means of departing by railway.
The Germans spent 16 hours in a
terrific artillery duel in an effort to
ford the Nethe. The Belgians held
their ground magnificently and with
great sacrifices prevented the Ger
mans from crossing. The Germans
were evidently unwilling to lose men
in an assault and decided to widen the
breach in the Notifications by bom-
harding the forts between the rivers
Senne and Scheldt, which were unable
to hold out against the steady down.
pour of shells.
This, the first line of Antwerp's de-
fenses, was destroyed, for the final
attack the Germans are hurrying 2OO,-
900 to the scene of battle from AK la
Chapelle via Brussels.
The Germans are boring hole
the Belgium resistance like
the boring of tunnel through
in which progress no mercy
is shown.

Bozeman. Oct. 12.-Three feet of

will drive the elk down from the

Washington, Oct. 12.-President
Wilson today gave assurance that
American merchants trading in Eu-

that he did not expect that there

Won KLUCK HOLDS POSITION
German Commander Makes Clever
Move Against Opponents

Move Against Opponents
London, Oct. THE conflict along
the rivers of northern France. al
though now in its twenty-sixth day
shows fewer signs of an early end
than it did two days ago.
Then General Won Kluck appeared
dangerously threatened by the en-
veloping movement of the allies. To-
day that resourceful German COM
mander having obtained from an un-
known quarter heavy reinforcements,
apparently is engaged in his turn, in
attempting to outfank the French
and British lines. This counter-stroke
is viewed here as the supreme fea-
ture in the situation in the western
theater of the war and its full signi-
ficance can be guaged only by the
actors who are privileged to witness
the drama in which they are engaged.
simultaneously with the newly
launched turning movement, General
Won Kluck has been trying to cut
through the center of the allies ex-
tended left at Lassigay.
Auc OIlCldl IcuCll communication
says that this attempt was foiled, but
it is not doubted that the effort will
be renewed and in the event of sue
cess. it would compel the left wing Of
the French army to retire toward the
coast in order to escape the German
lines stretching out simultaneously
from the north and east. The fight
ing in this neighborhood, described
in the French official report as
more and more violent" must, it is
believed, reach to Antwerp and large
ly influence the fate of that fortress.
Neither the German nor French
commander has claimed any decision
in this unprecedented struggle. In
deed. the German report states that
nothing decisive has resulted yet from
the attacks and counter attacks.

CONFIDENCE grows:
BUSINESS BETTER
Conditions Arising Out Of
European War Are Rapid
ly Being Adjusted.

New York, Oct 5.-Despite the
probability that the European war
Will continue indefinitely, it is now
agreed that commercial conditions in
this Country are rapidly improving
and that the outlook for business gen.
orally is very bright.
Very much greater confidence is
felt here says a Washington dispatch
to the New York Journal of Com
meree, lin the prospect regarding the
rectlfication of the general COM
merclal situation. The one thing
which, more than any other, is deem
ed to show return of normal con-
ditions is the resumption of cotton
exports actually in progress or about
to 60. The movement already amounts
to more than 100000 bales, according
to statements transmitted to foreign
trade authorities here. That this
movement, if continued, will result in
charging the balance in favor of the
United States, and will consequently
greatly alleviate the foreign exchange
situation, is fully believed and pre-
dicted.
at is probable that within a shor.
time, according to the best-informed
men, the exchange situation will thus
become very much more nearly norm
al, and as a result, one phase of the
present difficulties will be eliminated
from further consideration.
Improvement in the near future IS
predicted not only in cotton but also
in a number of other lines on the
strength of the information which had
been received here during the past
day Or two. TIL reports from the
Northwest seem to show that condl-
tons there are most satisfactory and
that the sales Of grain are already
realizing active cash returns much
beyond the expectations of growers
earlier in the season. Manufactured
exports and imports are expected tc
continue small for a good while, al
though if the beginning OF peace ne
gotiations can be fastened 1t IS De-
lieved that an almost immediate re-
vival of trade will be enjoyed
