proved futile. The little fellow had
evidently tipped over into the tank
and gone down while the hired man
was in the barn.

attitude, taken in connection with the

in Europe, il regarded as foreshadowlnG
a very one sided consideration this

MIR. Daniels in his statement to-day
took occasion to reply to published
article criticising the navy for its lack
of a general stan in control of strictly
naval questions and charging that the
American navy was deficient in sub

GREAT BATTLE IN EAST

BERLIN. Oct. 49, via London.-The
following announcement was given out
here to-day
1.-THE attacks of the enemy to the
west and northwest Of Lille have been
repulsed by our troops with the infiic-
ton Of severe losses. In the eastern
theatre OF war the situation remains
unchanged"
II is officially announced also that the
Germans have reached the neighborhood
OF Dunkirk. and that there Is heavy
fighting at Dixmude and Rou.ers. 1t is
sad that the Inhabitants of Dunkirk
and Boulogne are fleeing.
Yesterday there was no information
given out about the operations in the
western theatre OF war. This has
usually meant that troops were being
transferred and large movements were
under way.
IN Russian Poland the fighting south
west OF Warsaw may be regarded. 1t Is
stated as the commencement of de-
cisive engagement. The German ad-
vance toward the Nistula has been made
under miserable conditions, heavy rains
converting lnc TpduS INTO uudei1lTts'
through which 1t has been hard to drag
guns and transports. Occasionally the
roads have been abandoned and pas
sages cut through the forests. Despite
this the morale and physical condition
OF the soldiers continues excellent.
II is stated that Russian troops from
Bessarabla have been sent TO the eau
casus. where revolts are said to have
broken out. The Russians are finding
difficulty In forming new military or

GERMANS WANT CABLE TO U. S.
Mny Urge Line 10 America when
War Ends

BERLIN, via London, Oct. s-The B,r-
hner Td0obldt hints that after the war
movement may be launched to urge tho
United states to lay an American trans
atlantic cable directly to Germany. This
viii be the only way. the Tags bIdtt says,
To prevent II repetition OF the isolation OF
Germany from the outside world as
caused by Englands cutting of the Ger
man cable at the beginning OF the war.
Dr.. Richard Hennig. writing In tho
Grensboto, says that the action OF the
British In cutting the German cable In
neutral waters was "A violation OF the law
OF nations, his argument being that Great
Britain had right TO cut the German
cable only in German waters of Borkum
on LONE In Togo, or on Duala In
kamerun.
Or. Hennig points 10 the precedent SET
by the United States during the Spanish.
American war. In 1898, he says. the
United States made IL a special point 10
avoid damaging the cables which were
serving its foe on the high seas making
a rule to cut cables only within Spanish
waters tCuba or the Philipines).

Special Cable Despatch 10 TnE sus.
LONDON. Oct, l9.-The strong note OF
optimism in the reports from corre-
spondents in the north Of France is ade-
Quately explained by Information at
hand here, but the censorship does not
think the publication Of the details adj
v!sable
The authorities merely allow the publ-
cation of the statement that the position
of the allies Is regarded by those on the
field as eminently satisfactory.
The news that delights France IL
the Governments announcement that
the British navy Is now in n position TO
hep the allied armies Withstand Ger
man advance against Ostend and Calais
Powerful warships, not men. now hold
the extreme left of the allied line. 1t
Is believed impossible, therefore, that
the Germans can meet with success in
their new offensive along the Seacoast.
The Germans are likely to find Ostend
too hot for them to hold.
A secret kept rigidly for the past
few days was given to the public to-
night In the Government report. which
said that British warships are cooperat-
ing effectively with the Belglans. who
hold the line OF Newport. Roulers and
Ypres 1t is not too much to assume
that the British have now along the
coast squadron of big warships able
to command the coast line for Ave miles
with long range guns, British torpedo
boats and gunboats are believed to be
in the canals near Newport giving In
valuable support TO the gallant Belgian
army which Is fighting at the River
User and to the French forces who hold
the canal west OF Ypres.
That the Germans realized the new
peril TO their forces advancing in Bel
GUM is indicated by the attempt OF
their four destroyers. sunk by the Brit
ish cruiser tndaunted, to manmuvre
westward from their base II was I'M
doubtedly the German plan to forestall
the british ny sending cestroyers and
possibly Submarines to C~'tend and the
important points southwark along the

wrecked the plan. with the main Ger
