.MOntenegrins Are Within Ten

The battle of the Aisne entered on its
second week today.
Both sides claimed small advantages
but the truth seemed to be that:
Thus far the fight was a draw.
The allies were making frantic eff,
forts to crumple the extreme German
right under General Won Kluk.
The Germans, led by General Won
Buelow, were expending their last
ounce of strength in an attempt to
break the allies center near Craonne.
AT these points there were cavalry
and infantry charges and hand to hand
encounters.
Elsewhere the conflict was mainly an
artillery duel-and a terrible one.
Losses Staggering.
The London war office admitted that
losses were staggering
Rains continued and the men fought
and died in waterfilled trenches.
The Germans, successful in East Prus-
sia, were pushing their invasion of
Russian Poland, occupying town after

The Russians claimed uniform sue
cesses in this quarter.
After setting their stronghold OF
Jaroslav- on fire and abandoning it, the
Austrians were drawn up along line
from Cracow to Przemysl.
They asserted the retirement was only
to gain stronger positions.
Here as in the west, the battle ragged
in cutting, drenching sleet and rain.
AS Bad in the West.
Losses, also as in the west, were ad
mittedly frightful.
The Servians announced they had
repulsed fresh attempts at an Austrian
invasion.
Montenegrins occupied Rogbitza, only
ten miles from Seraievo, capital of the
Austrian province of Bosnia.
Popular sentiment was so strongly
anti-German and anti-Austrian in Rome
that the German and Austrian EN-
bassies there were heavily guarded.
People for Russia.
Rome information was to the effect
that Rumania was about to join thu
Ahglo-F Franco Russian combination.
Germany, on the other hand pro
fessed to have been assured that the
Rumanians would remain neutral.
The fact was that the Rumanian rul
ing house was pro-German; the peOpl,
pro-Russian.
A rumor was current that Emperor
Francis Joseph of Austria died a weel
ago but that the news had been sup
pressed lest it precipitate a revolution
but this report wholly lacked confirma

BANKS
FAIL FOR 81, ,25O,OOO
Had Loaned Too Much Money
to Themselves - TeninO
Bank, Also Fails

Centralia, Wash, Sept. 21.-The
United States National Bank with de-
posits of over $1,O0OO0O and the Union
Loan & Thust Company, with deposits
of over $250,000, failed to open their
doors today following an inspection of
the institutions books by Bank Ex-
aminer Lloyd L. Multi
The heaviest depOsitor in the banks
was the city of Centralia, which had
$4,000 on deposit. The closing of the
institutions leaves the municipality
with but $4,000 cash on hand from its
spring tax receipts.
The greatest factor in the closing Of
the doors of the two banks, according
to George Dysart. one of the stockhold-
trs, was oyer-confidence on the part of
the bank officials in the handling of
commercial paper, on which it was
founl impossible to realize when a
financial stress came. 1t is said that
the trouble is directly due to financing
mill and logging properties in which
the bank people were interested.
United States Attorney Clay Allen
and Marshal J. NJ. Boyles are in the
city in connection with the closing of
the banks, but their mission has not
been announced.
The closing caused no little excite
ment but the directors of both institu-
tiOns assert they will turn over all of
their private property and that deposi
tors will be paid in full
The other two Centralia banks were
prepared to Withstand runs but none
developed
The State Bank at Tenino, owned by
the same interests as the two institu
tions which closed here, also failed tC
open its doors this morning.
The failure of the Tenino bank
which is under the jurisdiction of the
state bank examiner and not the fed
eral authorities, was largely due, bank
officials stated, to the fact that the
bank had invested heavily in CONNER
cial paper similar to that held by the
two local concerns.

Casualties on Both Sides Are
Enormous Especially Among
the Austrians
SLEET AND COLD RAIN
! ADD TO HARDSHIPS
Austrians Being Steadily Driv-
en- Back---Russians Strong
ly Reinforced

Petrograd, Sept. 21.- Two
million men were fighting in
Galicia today.
The battle was the third gen.
eral engagement on Austrian
soil since the war began.
The first was the eight days
encounter which preceded The
Russian capture of Lemberg, the
Galician procincial capital. The
second was the nine days fight
about Rawa Ruska.
Today opened with the Rus
slams, strongly reinforced, driv-
ing General Dankl and his Aus
trian army backward and with
the czar's siege guns directing a
heavy fire upon the stronghold
of Przemysl, on the River San,
which was replying furiously.
Advices from the front did not
say definitely whether or not
fighting was still in progress at
Jaroslav, another of the San
fortresses some distance to the
northward of Przemysl.
At latest accounts the Rus
slams were bombarding the
formers defenses, but this was
Sunday, and since then, it was
learned, the Austrians have
abandoned their Jaroslav- Prem
ysl for one from Cracow to Prz-
emyl. 1t was thought possible,
however, that a garrison was
left, to delay the Russians as
much as possible.
Casualties on both sides, but
especially among the Austrians,
were enormous, official dis
patches stated.
A drizzle of sleet and cold rain
was reported, causing great
hardships among the troops and
rendering the roads so heavy
that the retreating Austrians
were compelled to abandon much
artillery and transport equip
ment.
1t was stated that Sunday
General Woirsch's Second Ger
man landwehr corps, which was
sent to help the Austrians but
suffered a severe defeat, was
beaten second time near Sand
omir, in the south of Russian
Poland.

sian advances in Galieia were claimed
today by the war office here. In
night attack on Dubieck, on the River
San, it was said the Austrians vera
overwhelmed and thousands of prison
ers and many guns were captured.
An official denial was issued to the
German charge that General Martos, a
Russian officer captured in east Prus-
sia, had instructions to burn east Prus-
sian villages and kill their male inhab-
itants. 1t was denied elso that he or
dered such burnings or killings with
out instructions.
Reprisals were threatened in case tho
German court. martial which was said
would try him, should sentence him to
death.
I The greatest indignation was express
ed at the news that Martos had been
/ taken TO Berlin in chains, handcuffed
to private soldier and that he had
been exhibited to the crowds at rail-
road stations on the road.
