GIGANTIC CONFLICT
IMMINENT IN EAST

Berlin, Oct. Appropriations are
under way for a gigantic battle in the
eastern arena OF the war, where Aus
trian and German armies have taken
positions along the Rivers Vistula and
San and are ready for eventualities.
The retaking of Przemysl, as an
nounced from Austrian sources, has
permitted the unfolding Of the power
of the Austrians from the direction OF
Lemberg and their advance in the
Southern C%arpathian mountains is
m~enacing the extreme left wing of
the Russians.
Desperate lighting already is going
on along the center Of the two armies
on the banks of the Vistula.
The Russian army is east of the
Vistula. The fact Is regarded in Der.
lin as marking it's advance and the
general management of the campaign
difficult matter and at the same time
unfavorable.
The Russian attack on the Aus.
TRANS and Germans, unless they sue.
coed In recrossing the Vistula, which
would be difficult, will not be easy.

The brevity of the recent official
communications issued by the French
war Office is being commented on in
Paris and the opinion prevails that
the present comparative silence is a
lull preceding the storm.
Colonel Rouseet, the French mill
tary critic, sees in the change OF
front by the Germans an admission
OF increasing embarrassment. He
says the Germans have tried to force
both the allies right and left wings
and these assaults have not procured
for the Germans any benefits.

FOREIGN MINISTER Is DEAD
Marquis ri San Guiliano Passes Away
at Rome.

Rome, Oct. 19.-Marquis of San
Guiliano, the Italian minister of for.
eign affairs, is dead.
The death of the foreign minister
was not unexpected, but it is believed
it will have a potent effect on the
present European war.
He was steadily opposed to Italy
taking arms against her former treaty
companions, Germany and Austria,
and has insisted that, inasmuch as
popular opinion was opposed to Italy
living up to it's treaty obligations, be-
cause of the deep seated enmity of
the Italians to the Austrians, it should
maintain an attitude of complete neu.
trality. He has been described sew.
eral times lately as the safety valve
which prevented Italy joining in the
general bloodshed.

London, Oct. 19.-The German army
that successfully besieged Antwerp
has swept VIGOROUSLY westward
along the Belgian coast until now,
with its right resting on Ostend, it
forms the extreme right of the leu.
ton line stretching from the North
sea to the Swiss frontier.
A great battle to determine whether
the advancing German hosts will be
stopped in Western Belgium or push
on into France, Selling Dunkirk and
Calais, on the Strait of Dover, must
come soon and quite possibly is being
fought.
Official intelligence is markedly
meager and this is invariably the
case when the belligerents are par
ticularly active.
The French official statement says
the German troops occupying Western
Belgium have not crossed the line
running from Ostend south to Menin.
The allied left wing appears to be
holding it's ground. At some points
ii Is moving forward, having occupied
Laventie, driving the Germans back

ARMIES IN BELGIUM
AND FRANCE IN TOUCH
Operations Further South Re-
tarded by Bad Weather.

Berlin, via The Hague, Oct. 10
That the German forces operating in
Belgium have effected a junction with
the right wing of the army in France
was announced at the war office.
1t was stated hat the general sit
uation is showing slow, but neverthe-
less distinct, Improvement from the
German viewpoint.
In France the German right wing
has been engaged in a series of con
fiicts with the allies along the line
from Noyon and Roye into Belgium.
These encounters, the war office says,
while taking on the character of ac-
tual battles, have been in the nature
OF separate movements in which both
sides have gained slightly at certain
points and lost at others.
But at no point, it is stated. has
there been any decisive results. Two
or three of the positions, il Is de-
clared, have been taken and retaken
three or four times. The weather is
said to be bad, and this has had the
effect of slowing down the rapid
movement Of troops.
OsteId, it is stated, was occupied
by the Germans without a struggle.
The German advance cavalry patrols
found when they reached the out.
skirts of the town that the allies had
%retreated, abandoning the intrench.
ments which they had constructed
north and east of the city. The bur.
gomeister of Ostend in person sur.
rendered the city to the German
forces.
