VON KLUCK DEAD, HAVRE
 PAPER SAYS

Paris, Nov. 5-The correspondent of the Excelsior at Havre says he has, from a source which he cannot desig- fate, news of the death of General Won Kluck 10 days ago. in a hospital at Namur where he was treated for a wound in the head. The news of the alleged death. the correspondent says, has been carefully concealed in Bel gium anaGermany.
 General Ton K1uck, who led the dash of tSfe German right wing which got to within a few miles of Paris in the first month of the fighting, has been reported within the last few days in official communications as direct ing his army in the fighting on the river Aisne. When the scene of severe fighting shifted to Belgium and the German right wing was extended into that territorye General Von KIuck. following his skillful retreat from the vicinity of Paris, remained in the posi- tion he had taken on the Aisne. The fighting there recently has been overz shadowed by the operations in Bel giun and General Von Kluck and his army, according to reports have been given much needed rest.

FRENCH CLAIM GERMANS HAVE
 ABANDONED CHANNEL ATTACKS

eral Joffre said that the French situa- ton was good and expressed his hope that the combined efforts of the allies would bring final success. has served further to arouse confidence in France.
 The question of the duration of the war is being continually asked, in France and as often answered. One of the latest estimates is that made by General Berthaut. who predicts that hostilities will be at an end in three months The General admits that the siege of SebastopoI lasted two years but says there is no reason to conclude that the present war will run such a protracted course. The relatively small armies engaged in the Crimean war made possible such prolonged <. contests. The General argues that today will see Germany, + confronted by the necessity of placing enormous forces of men on two fronts, reaching the point Of exhaustion be- fore either France or Russia and that this period of exhaustion may be ex- pected in three months. France also may be expected to reach, the limit of her resources but not so quickly as in the case of Germany

the fighting in the east indicate, in the opinion of English observers, that the forward movement of the Rus sians has become general. Even the Russian left wing, which has been held stubbornIy by the Austrians for weeks past, has Joined in the advance. This is admitted by a sconservatively worded official report given out in Vienna which declares that the Aus trians, having maintained their posi- ton on the Lysa Cora Mountain, where the Teutonic allies pivoted in order to let the rest of the army com plete it's wheeling movement to a new line, are now retiring. At the same time. Austria sets forth certain minor successes along the line from the river San to Jaros1au.
 Petrograd, however; makes positive assertion that the Austrian movement is a retreat amounting to a rout in which the Russians have taken many prisoners and much booty. Accord ing to reports in the Russian capital General Won Hindenberg, the German. commander, is said to be continuing his retiring movement in Russian Poland, while desperate fighting along the frontier of East Prussia has en-. abled the Russians to cross the border at several points.

The British public is seeking further details of the action last Sunday off the coast of Chili, but no continued efforts are being made to minimize this disaster Great anxiety is felt concerning the fate of Rear Admiral Sir Christopher Cradock, which probably will not be known until 1t has been definitely de- stermined what has become of his flagship, the cruiser Good Hope The British public, however, is not left without some crumbs of comfort as Berlin officially admits the loss of the cruiser Yorck, blown up by a mine near Jade, one of the outlying de- lenses of Wilhe1mshaven, while in shipping circles in London, it is de- clared that the career Of the German cruiser Koenigsberg in the Indian Ocean has been ended.
 Sir Percy Scott, Eng1and's greatest gunnery expert, and a Champion of the superiority of submarines over dreadnaughts, has rejoined the admir- atty. As he has been known in the past as a supporter of Baron Fisher, it is said that he will uphold the new policies already inaugurated by the first sea lord of the admira1ty
