PARIS. oct. 23.--TThe Figaro states
that the committees representing tho
five academies comprising the Institute,
exclusive " the Academic Franchise,
which had - right to a direct voice be-
cause il has no foreign members or cor
respondents. had the rhoico Of two
actions expelling Of German members
and correspondents or stlgmatizinG

Az the result Of "A secret vote the pro-
posal for expulsion was defeated almost
unanimously The proposal o; a public

majority Hence 10 action viii be taken
and no recognition will be made Of the
political activities Of Austro-German
members and correspondents unless the
bodies Of Che Institute members revise
the action taken by their committees
which il most improbable.
1t appears that the Academic FRANCHISE
alone resis,s the InstItute's refusal TO ven
turo into international politics. and rs a
sort OF answer and protest proposes to
elect NJ Maeterlinck member to take

Various explanations are offered for the
action Of the Institute. which did not
surprise ~" learned world II was feared
that tine precious prestige Of the Institute
honors would be lowered II even the
bitterost enemy who was member was
expelled. because Of the fact that these
honors are given for life and in spite Of
the recipients subsequent behavior enhance
In value
II also Ia suggested that the Institute,
as an everlasting institution Of all human
learning. prefers to hold aloof from even
the most vital temporary conflicts be-
tween Powers the Institute belonging "a
mankind rather than TO France. II il
suggested further that the institute may
be returning good for evil against the
political rccrimination prsctised by the
most eminent learned men of Austria and
Germany thereby furnishing spectacle
Of civilized ~ contrasted with barbarous
intellect.
The only honorable solution suggested
as acceptable would be the spontaneous
resignation of the German and Austrian
members.
A fascinating legal puzzle is attached
TO the election OF Maurice Maeterlnck
which Is widely interesting to jurists.
The incident Is noted as one able 10 pro-

PARIS, oct. 23-The Germans struck
at the allied line between the North
Sea and the Disc to-day with tremen-
dous force and drove back the French
and British in the region Of La Bassee.
although compelled themselves to give
ground east Of Armentlcres. Gen.
Joffre teleEraphs from headquarters
that the allied line ~ a whole stands
firm.
There is nothing in The official reports
To cause apprehension. although it II
apparent that the new effort by the
, Germans to hew through tho allied line
wherever weak section can bo found
in Belgium or IN northern France has
gained momentum in the last six days.
The German General staff has drained
Belgium OF garrison troops and has
hurried new corps Of Young recruits
and middle aged reservists from homo
depots.
1t is reported that the German COM
manders are again adopting the policy
Of trying To hack through the allied
/ lines at whatever cost Tho German
losses in Belgium in the past week arc
estimated at 10000 killed and wounded.
All reports, including that of Gen.
JOfre. point to a further supreme effort
to take the road TO Paris
At tho extreme left Of the line where
French and British warships are sup
porting the indomitable Belgians, the
Germans could not gain an inch, but
southwark along the canal of La Basses
| their battering ram drove forward
slightly. 4 little TO the north of la
| Bassee, in the region just east Of
Armentieres, the allies succeeded in
pushing back n German army and were
equally successful south Of the Somme
The hardest fighting was in the regions
OF La Bassee Armenticres and Arras
although the conflict ragged with great
violence along the whole west flank
from the sea to north of scissors. The
day produced nothing decisive.
| North OF Scissors, In the region which
IL the cornerstone of the battle line,
there was an artillery conflict with the
result favorable to the British and
French. Gen. Joffre reports that three
German batteries were put out OF
action. Eastward to the Argonne ridge
there was no fighting OF Importance,
| but the official report Of the afternoon
states that the French gained slight
successes in the region Of Verdun.
Correspondents In Belgium ana
northern France assert that the alies
have made more progress than has
been reported by the commander IN
chief; that the warshps have made tho
Belgian coast too hot for tho Germans
to hold; that a retreat has already be-
gun from the coast and that the main
conflict on the whole west flank must
be decided very soon, II fo- no other
reason than the terrible losses which
both sides are suffering.
