The War Today
fBy the Associated Press. )

The terrific battle of the Aisne, now
In its 18th day, continues to rage, but
its violence generally is held to por-
tend a decisive result in the near fu-
ture.
GaIicia has been almost cleared of
Austrians, according to announcement
from Petrograd.. The Russians swept
across the Carpathian mountains into
the Ung war district, 100 miles north
east of Buda Pest.
Japanese are drawing military cor
don closer around kiao-Chow, German
territory. Chinese troops blew up and
destroyed a railroad bridge at Tayu
Ho, six miles west of Weilsien, Shan
tung.
British and German governments
have exchanged lists of prisoners of
war. This is being done through the
American ambassador in London and
is preparatory to arranging actual ex-
change of prisoners.
This is the first indication that Chi
nese troops have taken active part in
opposing Japanese military operations
against the Germans in the leased ter
ritory of kiao-Chow.

indications Point to Early
End of Terrific Battle
in France.
BOTH SIDES HOLD OUT
Thousands of Dead and Wound
ed Are Left Lying in the
Fire Swept Zone.

Paris, Sept. 29.-An official report
says: "On our left wing along the
river Somme the Germans attempted
numerous attacks, which the allies re-
pulsed. De took many prisoners yes
terday."
In the center heavy cannonading is
going on, while between Argonne for
est and the river Meuse the allies have
made some progress.
London, Sept 29.-The 18th day of
the battle of the Aisne thus far has
brought no decisive result, but all in
dications point TO an approaching end
of the Homeric struggle. Hand to
hand fighting now raging is bound,
It is generally held, to decide the is
sue.
Meanwhile the fog which a French
official report yesterday announced had
prevented operations in the Woevre
district covers nstapsagically the rest
or the long battle line.
All that the public is permitted to
know from the allied side is that so
far the French and British armies
have held their grip on their posi-
tions and have consistently thrown
back masses of Germans who have
been bravely and necessarily hurled
on them in an effort to break through
the human barrier.
Berlin Reports No Change.
Berlin asserts there is no change in
the situation and claims of the allies
that the scales have turned slightly
in their favor are stoutly denied.
Losses to the opposing armies in the
last few days have been colossal. Even
official reports contain a grewsome
picture of thousands of dead and
wounded lying in the fire swept zone
between the two armies and every
fresh assault adding to the CHASTITY lit
ter.

inactivity of the Zeppelin balloons
