these positions are entirely idle. In
fact. 1t is known that an artillery duel
is going on continuously but proba bly,
neither SIDE has been able to move
forward, while the infantry have al
ways been on the alert to met attacks
and counter attacks.
For a time, the Germans had the
better of the artillery fighting as they
possessed the bigger guns. This is now
said to have been overcome for the
French have brought up additional
artillery, including some big naval
guns. which are being used to drive
the Germans out Of their strongly
fortified positions.
Both sides appear to be full of con-
fidence. The Germans, who are bring
ing mp re-inforcements to meet the
attempts to oiitf1ank them, are in what
appear to be almost impregns BILE po-
sitions and are using them skiilfuly
and fighting hard and sternly to retain
them.
The allies on the other hand, place
their hopes ir the arrival of reinforce
ments on their left and the possibility
of finding a weak spot in the German
front. The Indian troops should now
be with the British army, the official
bureau having today permitted the
publication of the fact that they
landed in France on Friday last
OF course it is rot known where the
Indian troops ares gnipg, but it is be-
lieved that the left wing will be stiff
fened by them. Some Of the Teriteri-
ais also have reached Field Marshal
French. These include the London
Scottish, recruited, from Scotchmen in
London. In their ranks are some of
the best marksmen in. the empire.
A call also has been made for Brit
ish railway men to 60 to- Ffance and
assist in the working of the. railroads
there So that. before long. there will
be a considerable, instead Of a small
British army in France.
With the German attack on the out
err forticfiations of Antwerp Belgium,
has again become the scene Of serious
operations. The invaders, so Tar, have
confined their attack to the forts pro-
tecting the river crossings between
MaIines and Antwerp.
A German report says that two
forts have been sileaced. but the Bel

forts stopped firing as II ruse, and that
when the German field artillery APP
preached to take them, they re-opened
fire decimating the Germaps who had
to retire. leaving behind several guns.
There is no indication of the strength of
the Germans at that point, but 1t is pre-
sumed that they have launched no mean
force against the formidable defences of
the temporary capital.
According to a Rome dispatch, the Rus
sian ambassador in that city has issued
statement to the effect that the Rus
slams have destroyed the Austrian army
in Galicia and that they are now turn
ing their attention to the taking of
Przemysl and Cracow. A great battle Is
impending before Cracow and upon it's
result will depend the future movements
Of the Russian army. Victory to the Rus
sian troops would permit of a junction Of
these forts with the Russian central

Due to the very excellent courses OF

increasing number of graduates Is
having a most beneficial effect and is

1t is estimated that the public

are approximately million children

MAKES "A Plea
For Railroads and Gives Salient
Points Why Demand Should
Be Granted.


BALTIMORE, Jan. 27-The rela-
lion Of the American railroads to the
general prosperity OF the country and
the Importance OF justice in the reg
ulation of the transpo rtation Interests
so as TO encourage further develop
meRt of the nationss commerce were
subjects discussed by Governor James
". Cox. of Ohio, at the annual din
ner OF the Railway Business Assoeia-
ton. IN New York recently.
Speaking as a representative of gov
ernnent, Governor Cox discussed the
question along lines which indicated
that the public generally is coming to
gecognize that the best interests of
commerce can best be served by Coz
operative action instead of by work
Ing at cross-purposes.
The governor of Ohio took up va
rious phases of the railroad question,
treat:ng of them from the standpoint
of the part which transportation plays
in our affairs and in the development
OF the country; the real condition of
the railroads. physical and financial
and the cause Of the present confus-
ion and he remedy.
