INLAND ROUTE
Invaders Leave Coast to Avoid
Fire From Warships.

London, Oct. 26.-Ofhcial reports is-
sue6 from German and French head
quarters say that the Germans, find
ing it impossible to advance along the
coast toward Dunkirk on account Of
the fire from the British and French
warships, took route little more In.
land and have succeeded In crossing
the User canal, which the Belgians
have been defending stubbornly for
a week past, to the west Of Dixmude.
They also have made progress to
the northeast Of Ypres and still are
in possession Of Roulers, toward which
the allies were advancing last week
and at one time were reported to have
captured. The Germans claim to
have taken 500 British troops in the
fighting in this neighborhood.
OF the gains claimed by the Ger
mans the French reports made no
mention, Diminishing the battle with:
There is no change to report between
the sea and the region around Ar
ras."
To add to the trials OF the troops a
short spell OF fine weather has given
place to another downpour of rain,
which will convert the lowlands Of
Flanders into great lakes.
OF tho battles on the confer and
left wing the German report docs not
speak, but the French declare they are
maintaining their positions in the Ar
COME and on the heights of the
Mouse and have destroyed three more
German batteries. From unofficial
sources it is learned that the French
have made some advance in the
mountains along the Alsace border.
Hard Fighting In Poland.
In Poland a very heavy battle now
is in progress between the fortresses
Of 1vangorod and Radon. The Ger
mans and Austrians, who were defeat
ed In their first attempt to cross the
Vistula before the former city, have
made a stand against the Russians.
The latter had followed in the hope
Of destroying them.
Both sides, according to their own
reports, have made prisoners and cap
tured guns, but the battle, which ex-
tends over front of twenty-six miles,
has not yet been decided.
The Austrians still are making a
bold effort to cross the River San and
are carrying on a splendid fight south
Of Przemysl in the hope of reaching
and recapturing Lemberg.
The Montenegrins admit that they
have had to withdraw to their pre-.
vious positions along the Bosnian
frontier after an attack by a superior
force of Austrians. The latter, in fact,
seem to be fighting in manner OF
which their first performances in the
war hardly gave promise.
Turkey, which it was believed at
one time had decided to throw in her
lot with Germany, again has assured
the ambassadors of Great Britain,
France and Russia that she intends to
maintain her policy Of neutrality.
Turkey, however, continues her mill.
tary activities and is collecting trans
port animals, which, it is said, are
destined for the Egyptian frontier 1t
is considered that strong Russian
forces on the Turkish border has In.

Pier Pile His sepuIcher?

A weird explanation of the disap-
pearance of workman while the Gar
den pier at Atlantic City was in
course of erection, more than a year
ago, is given much credence. 1t was
believed that the workman fell into
the surf and was drowned, but the
present rumor Is to the effect that he
fell into a caisson In which a monster
concrete piling was being nodded, and
is solidly imbedded in this piling.
Color is lent to this theory by the fact
that no trace Of the workman's body
has been discovered, and other work
men expressed doubt at that time
that he fell into the ocean.
One of the workmen stated that an
automatic contrivance discharged a
ton or more of concrete into the cais-
son a moment after the workman fell,
as it was believed. into the surf. 1t
is his theory that the mans body was
deluged with the concrete, and that
the piling was completed as grave
for the man.
