HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS
 REPORTED WOUNDED
Red Cross Agent Says Many of Them
 Lie in Trenches.

New York, Sept 23.-The number or wounded in battle in Europe is already in the hundreds of thousands, the nos pitals of Paris and Berlin and cottages on the battlefields and churches are filled and many other wounded ne exposed in trenches, according to Ef : nest P. BickneIl, national director or the American Red Cross, who arrived here today on the steamship Olympic from Liverpool. MT. Bicknell, who lert New York on the battleship Tennessee, the American vessel which carried golo to Americans in need in Europe, spent several weeks observing conditions in the countries at war.
 "Omcial reports give little definite information of the losses, but the num- Der of wounded is already in the hun dred of thousands" MT. Bicknen said .aThe truth is that over the thousands of square miles already battle-SWept, there have been left almost countess thousands of men helpless from ehastly wounds. Some have been gatn- erd into trains by the Red Cross sur geons and nurses and taken to hospl- tals in the larger cities. Into Paris and Berlin thousands have alreaoy been brought, and one by one the nos pitfalls have been filled, public ana pri- yate buildings have been utilized for the wounded, but still the numbers in crease.
 s.Some of the wounded were taken into cottages on the battlefields and the churches, but still there are thou- sands who lie in the trenches and in the fields, suffering from thirst and exposure.
 Let no man imagine the American Red Cross can do too much or enough. Nurses and surgeons are needed more and more, and also medical and hos- pital supplies"

BRITISH NAVAL AlRMEN
 MAKE DARING RAID
Against the German Zeppelin AirshiP
 Base at Dusseldorf.

London, Sept. "A. 12.S5 a. m.-Tne squadrons of British naval airmen made a daring raid yesterday from Belgium against the German Zeppelin airship base at Dusseldorf and Co., logne. The attack upon Dusseldorf was officially reported as having been successful. Lieut. c. H. Collett drop ped three bombs there on Zeppelin shed, sweeping down to within 400 feet of his target.
 The attack on Cologne apparently failed of it's object, as the official an nouncement fails to mention 1t. An Antwerp paper, however, says that four bombs fell on the Zeppelin camp at Pickerdorf and set fire to the hangars.
 The squadrons making the raid into Germany are believed to have consist ed of five aeroplanes with navigator and an assistant in every machine. The novel expedition started from an un- mentioned base. The weather was misty, which assisted in the secrecy of it's approach to the intended scenes of operation. It is thought in some circles that the weather conditions may have caused a hitch in the sched- ule of the aeroplanes and that it is possible that the two bombs which were dropped on the Dutch town of Maastricht, near the German border, Tuesday, from mysterious aircraft, may have come from one of the British f1iers, Fortunately no fatalities re- suited from the explosions in MaaS- tricht.

 SOLDIERS IN HUNGARY

 sion in Dual Monarchy.

Venice, Sept. 23, 1.40 p. na.. by way of Paris, 6.35 p. m.-Nine cases of Asiatic cholera have been discovered among wounded soldiers in Hungary, according to an official announcement by the Hungarian minister of the in- terior. The announcement has excited great apprehension throughout the dual monarchy.
 It is also learned here that the first suspected case of cholera in Hungary was that of wounded soldier who was brought on Sept. Is to Bekescsala from the Galician battlefield. The bacterio- logical examination clearly showed Asiatic cholera
 The patient was immediately isolat- ed in the hope Of preventing a spread of the disease. Since then eight other cases have been discovered also among the wounded who returned from Cali cia One case was found at MunkaoS, another at 'rokod (Tokay?) and six at Dumaszerdahely, in Pressburg, imme- diately on the Austrian border, within an hours ride of Vienna
 Both Austrian and Hungarian min isters of the interior are taking the utmost precautions against a spread of the disease.
 Vienna is awaiting with keen anx- iety news of the progress of the fight ing against the Russians and Servians but nothing is forthcoming beyond the bare official statement that there are no new developments in the eastern theatre of the war.

 Soissons Bombarded.
 The headquarters staff has been en- abled to make a long movement for ward towards the north. The town o1 Soissons has been subjected to fu- rious German boLnbardment for nine days. The cannonade starts each day at dawn and continues until 8 o'clock in the morning. It then ceases and begins again at o'clock. continuing until ' in the evening. The cathedral and other buildings have been greatly damaged.
 The German artillery is posted to the northeast of the town, while the French guns occupy an emplacement necessity for the shells to fall on the town itself, as the French troops are stationed a considerable distance from it.
 Noyon is also suffering from the German gun fire, but the fine cathe- dra1 up to the present has escaped.
 Germans Yield Ground.
 Today's advance of the allied troops entailed very severe fighting, in which ltk6 Pldy C0 it1A 6C Pcll '. AAS combat has lasted for "A hours, but eventually the Germans yielded ground after sustaining a large number of casualties. The allies were also heavy losers. Many ambulance trains have left the front for provincial cities, car- rying German and French wounded. Large numbers of seriously wounded English officers and men have been transported to the American and other hospitals in Paris.
 Among the killed today was General Dupuis, commander of the 67th in- fantry brigade.
 Correspondents Arrested at Rheims.
 Eight American and British corre- spondents arrested at Rheims on Mon day for visiting that city without leave have been released through the inter- vention of the American ambassador Myron T. Herrick. The military gov ernOr of Paris announced today, how ever, that anyone using a temporary pass for leaving Paris to penetrate the fighting zone would be subject without exception to a severe penalty. This is a precaution against spies, who appear to be numerous and adroit. A resi- dent of Maubeuge, who has just es- caped from that town, says that city during the siege was full of secret German agents. The French discov- cred a subterranean telephone which was being used by a German emissary to inform the German officers of the French dispositions. Every sortie of the garrison failed because the Ger mans were ready. having apparently been forewarned.

PARIS REPORTS LITTLE
 CHANGE IN THE SITUATION
Of Battle of the Aisne, Now in Pro-
 gress Eight Days.

Paris, Sept 23, 11:16 D. m.lThe French official communication issued tonight, after announcing that there has been no change in the situation on the battle front since the issuance of the previous communication makes some comments on the battle of the Aisne4 The text of the announcement follows:
 Should Cause No Surprise.
 There has been no change in the situation since the last communication. The battle which is in progress along the Aisne has extended over eight days, but it should cause no surprise if one recalls the Russo-Japanese war. The battle of the Marne was an ac- ton undertaken in the open field which began with a general resump- tion of the offensive by the French army against the enemy who did not expect it and had not had time seri- orTSly to organize defensive position The same cannot be said of the bat tie, of the Aisne where the adversary who was retreating, stopped and took positions which by the nature of the ground are very substantial in them selves in many places and which he has been able gradually to improve as to organization.
 This battle of the Aisne therefore presents on a large part of it's front the character of war by assault simi- lar to the operations in Manchuria- Artillery Evenly Matched. Tt might be added that the ex- ceptionaI power of the artillery fac ing each other-the heavy German ar tillery against the French 7.5 centi- | metre cannons-gives a particular value to the temporary Notifications | which the two adversaries have dawn up.
 'The task is therefore, to take whole rows of entrenchments, each | one protected by very close defences | particularly rows of barbed wire, with | mitrailleuses in concealed positions. '1n these circumstances progress o1 necessity must be slow. It often hap
 pens that the progress of the attacks
 only amounts to from 800 metres tc 1 one kilometre a day.
