MUST GUT RIVER
AND HARbOR BILL
REPUBLICAN OPPOSITION De
VELOPS ON ACCOUNT OF
FALLING REVENUE.

Washington, Sept 12.-Republcan
opposition to the river and >harbor
bill, coupled with the falling customs
revenue because of the European war,
had the effect of inducing Democratic
leaders to strike out $1S,500,00O of the
$52,00O,0 900 originally proposed 1t is
not yet satisfactory, however, to the
Republicans.
Senator Simmons, in charge of the
measure, said the revision was gener-
ally on pro rata basis. The largest
fiat reduction was in the appropria.
tion for the Mississippi river, which
was cut from $S000,000 to $4,000, 900.
The item for purchase and improve
ment of the Chesapeake & Ohio canal
was entirely stricken out, but a pro
Xision was inserted authorizing the
secretary of the treasury to negotiate
fer the purchase of the waterway.
Several Southern and Western
Democrats initiated the petition.
They propose as an alternative an
increase in the tax On beer, whiskey
other distilled liquors and possibly au
tOmobiles and other luxuries. A
freight tax, they declare, would affect
all the necessities of life, particular.

DECISIVE RESULT LACKING.
London, Sept. 12.--Repcrt lof de-
cisige result ii three tremendous
struggles which are waging along as
many battle lines between the Allies
and Germans and Austrians was still
lacking early today.
The mystery of the western opera
tions was complicated by news from
Berlin which ignores Gen. Won
Kluck's efforts on the German right
while indicating that the Germans
attack at Verdun is proceeding sue
cessfully.
Onlcial thanks conveyed to the Ba-
varian Sixth corps seem 10 Indicate
that this army is merely expected to
prevent the sending northward Of re-
Inducements to the allies.
If the German attack on the south
erly exposure of the Verdun forts has
succeeded, the complete investment
.cf Verdun is certain.
The situation along the Russian
border Is becoming as obscure as the
westerns operations. Berlin reports
that the victory OF Gen Won linden
burg will clear east Prussia of Rus
slams. Military experts at Petrograd,
however, assert that it is incredible
that the Russians gave up the invest
ment of Koenlgsburg unless suffer-
ing a greater disaster than has yet
been reported
The Russians still appear to be sue
cessful in Russian Poland, while op-
Grating agal1t Austrans alone They
are making less impression, howev-
er On the combined Austro-German
Iarmies on the Vistula river
The stand being made on the Wis
tula has caused several Petrograd
military experts to assert that Ger
man reinforeements from %ance are
being sent to Galacia instead of to
east Prussia, as first reported Other
expert observers at Petrograd hold
the opinion that German veterans
from the fields Of Belgium and France
have been sent to east Prussia. where
their presence is believed to account
for the Russian check
The most substantial gain of the
Russian forces in the last "a hours
was the capture of Tomaszow which
probably cleared the way for an ad-
vance of the Russian center on the
Austro-German forces on the Vistula.

Washington, Sept. 12.-The follow
ing dispatch from Bordeaux was re-
ceived today at the French embassy:
The French general staff made
known today that the first German
army continues its retirement. Three
OF its army corps were repulsed last
night between Villers, Collerets and
scissors. We have in four days
gained from 60 to IS kilometers.
I'm the second army the Tenth
corps and the guards, driven back
to the Saintgond swamps, are also
Withdrawing
"In the Champagne the Third Ger
man army is also retreating. The
German center is thus at last giving
ground.
After a hard fight in the region
between Sezanne and Vitry in the Ar
gonne, the Fourth German army has
been pushed back to- the north of
Troisfontaines forests.
A fifth German army, after at
tempting very serious effort on our
right wing, was thrown ESck. Our
troops occupy Vassincourt.
The general situation has thus
been modified to our advantage dur
ing these last days.
On the other side the Austrian
army, attacked near Tomaszow, was
forced to diastrous retreat. The
whole army has been pushed hack to
the west of Rawa Ruska and the Dne
lister river. The Russians besieged
Grodek.

pies who live there.
Referring to complaints that In

be done; that dividends would not
come any sooner through the send
ing of United States army there.
When men who love to fight as a
pastime have been restrained for
twenty-five years, the ambassador
continued, they must fight for four
or Ave years before they arrive at an
ordinary state Of equilibrium. There
fore, II they fight long enough and
get tired why should we not some day

other way for It..
In concluding Mr.. Page said:
Come to our country and invest
your wealth in our enterprises and
you will be heartily welcomed. ! hope
you will come and reap richer re
wards than ever. AS far as the Uni
