AUSTRIA FOLLOWS ALLY
Toxic Processes surprise-WashIng

lamation of Neu-
trallty.

Tokio.-The Austrian Ambassador,
Baron Mueller de Szentgyorgy, has
been recalled
The situation between Japan and
Austria is described here as "rup-
ture of diplomatic relations, not war"
The ro-Hungarian Ambassador
explained to Premier Kato that Aus
tria felt in duty bound to follow her
ally and withdraw her Ambassador
from Japan.
This evening M. Kato sent his secre-
tary to the diplomat carrying the lat
ter's passport.
The news of the declaration Of war
by Austria Hungary upon japan, fol-
lowing the official announcement Of
the disarming OF the Austrian cruiser
Kaiserin Elizabeth, in the port Of
Tsingtau, caused surprise at Toxic. 1t
has been hoped here that Australia
gary, having but small interests in the
Far East, would not force breach of
relations with Toxic. especially as Aus
tria-Hungary always has been regard
ed as friendly to Japan. The Austrian
Ambassador and the members Of his
staff always have been popular here.

Washington Informed.

Washington, d. c. Ambassador
Dumba of Austria formally notified the
United States that diplomatic relations
between Austria and Japan had been
severed, but made no reference to any
declaration of war.
The Austrian Ambassador advised
the State Department that the Aus
trian Emperor had ordered the cruiser
Kaiserin Elizabeth to join the German
feet of Tsingtau. Last Monday in
structions were sent to the officers Of
the ship to dismantle it and officials
here do not know as yet whether the
change of decision at Vienna reached
the officers of the cruiser in time to
prevent her from being abandoned.
The Japanese Embassy here was
notified from Toxic that diplomatic
relations with Austria-Hungary had
been formally severed when the Aus.
trian Ambassador at Toxic asked the
Japanese Government for his pass

London-A dispatch from Paris to
Reuters Telegram Company says
1.-The losses Of the Austrians In the
battle of the Drina continue to grow,

RUSSIANS DRIVE A WEDGE.

London.-The Russian troops are
pouring into Germany by the tens Of
thousands. There are 100000 on the
way, with 100000 more to come If
necessary. Every day they are moving
faster.
They have taken a vigorous Of
fensive in Galicia, and the Germans
are rapidly falling back upon their
defense at Koenigsberg on the road to
Berlin. Austrian troops are being
rushed from Bosnia to Galicia to back
up the Germans, who already have
lost very heavily.
In Southern East Prussia the Ger
mans have evacuated the district Of
Masurenland.
The Russians sustained no check in
this very difficult country. and they
occupied It's western outlets. 1t is
confirmed that they captured hun
dred guns from the enemy.
The Russians have also occupied
Tilset, a town go miles northeast of
Koenigsberg.
"Lakelets and marshes were sown
with rifle pits, and wherever prac-
ticable redoubts Of felled timber were
placed. Everywhere there were
formidable wire entanglements."

MILLION MEN ENGAGED.

London.-Dispatches from Austrian
points state that 100000 men are en-
gagged in the battle on the Austro-Rus-
sian frontier. The battle line extends
from the Vistula River TO the Dniester
River, over 100 miles. The Russians
have penetrated more than 20 miles
into Austrian territory.
The Russians have captured Allen
stein and invested Koenigsberg, both
important cities in East Prussia
Scattered encounters in Eastern
Galicia have developed inte a general
battle extending 100 miles from the
southern districts Of Lublin, in Russian
Poland, to a point beyond Lemberg'
IN Galicia, says the st. Petersburg cor
respondent Of the Daily Mail He
adds:
Ii East Prussia the Germans have
been driven further back. Their losses
were particularly heavy at Mullen 22
miles southwest Of Allenstein. and it is
only a question of a few days when the
Germans will be driven beyond the
Vistula.
Panic now reigns in DanZig, the
population Of which is fleeing TO Ber-
lin. The result Of the general battle
now being fought is expected to in
fuence largely the whole campaign
against Austria. The scant reports
thus far received indicate that Rus
sia is on the road to decisive vic
tory"
The German railways IN East Prus-
sia have been relaid on the Russian
gauge, and there is through communi-
cation between st. Petersburg and
Insterburg, in East Prussia, short
distance northwest OF Gunbinnen.
1.-THE Russians" the correspondent
adds, need waste no lives In their
attempt to capture Koenigsberg, as it
is easily isolated, and Russia, who
finds that she has modified more men
than are required Immediately, can
continue her advance.
"A thousand Austrian prisoners
have reached Kiev, and about 800 Ger
ruans have been broughteto Moscow.

AUSTRIA DECLARES WAR ON
BELGIUM.

Vienna, via London.-Austria Fri
day declared war on Belgium. The
Belgian Ambassador was handed his
passports at the Foreign Office. all
diplomatic relations were broken of
and the way cleared for Austrian
troops joining the Germans in the
operations on Belgian soil II neces-
sary.
Until Friday Belgium was the only
one of the allied powers at war with
Germany alone. France, England and
Russia had heretofore made declara-
tions against both Austria and Ger
many.

The retirement of the hiiiesA vtheir
second line of defense has been ac-
complished, according to the latest re-
ports, without a hitch. Both the
French and British armies have been
reinforced until 1t is estimated that
there are now 100000 men on this
line. The allied forces are now ready
to assume the offensive.
Indeed this movement has already
begun. Dispatches from Paris report
that the British, in conjunction with
the French, have begun vigorous as
sault on the German forces, who have
penetrated a short distance on the
Somme River In the direction of La
Fere, in the Department of Aisne.
A Check To Germany.
Farther west the French have check
ed the Germans advance guard, and
at the other extremity on the Meuse
the French are offering vigorous and
successful resistance which extends
along nearly the whole front.
The apparent turn in the fortunes OF
war in favor of the Allies was brought
about by the overwhelming successes
of the Russians in East Prussia, which
has forced the Kaiser to withdraw.

HOW ZEPPELlNs DROP
BOMBS.

London.-The method used by
Zeppelin airships in dropping
bombs has been described as
follows by an English refugee
who has just arrived here from
Belgium:
The dirigible hovers over its
objective at a sufficient altitude
to keep it out of range Of the
enemy's guns. At the same time
It lowers a steel cage attached
to a steel wire rope 1000 or
5000 feet long. This cage is
divided into compartments. and
It carries one man, whose duty
1t is to throw down the bombs.
The cage is sufficiently strong
to make rife FIRE against 1t in
effective, and because Of its
small size and the fact that 1t is
kept constantly in motion 1t is
very difficult for heavy guns to
bit II.

BoULoeNE TAKEN.

London.-A Central News dispatch
says that Boulogne has been evacuated
by the allied troops.
A news dispatch sent from Paris re-
ported that train service between Paris
and Boulogne had been suspended,
with the explanation that this was
probably because the allied armies
were about to engage the Germans
near the railroad line.
London heard that the Germans had
cut the line. Boulogne is fortified

miles northeast of Paris and 20 miles
