ENGLISH WOMEN
EAGER TO FILL
SOLDIERS JOBS
Willing to Hold Positions and Pay
Obligations of Troops
-. = - - - -.

London, Sept. 22.-Remarkable tes'
timony to the eagerness with whicf
women want to fill the places of mel
who have been called away from Eng
land to fight for their country is giver
by the Womens Emergency Corps
which. under leadership of the Duchess
OF Marlborough. has compiled a regis
ter of upwards of $4,000 names OF
women who desire to be of service.
How diverse the jobs they seek,
says Mrs. Flora Annie Steel, in WRIT
ing Of the work of the Women's Emcr-
gency Corps, may be guessed by the
entries OF over 100 interpreters-none
of whom speak less than four Ian
guages, and some of them eleven-of
more than 200 expert horsewomen
ready at a few hours notice to serve at
home or abroad, and who are quite
capable of MANAGING or working III
remount camps. Many of these, having
shot and campcd all over the world
are eminently suited for rough work.
Then there are $50 expert motorcy-
clists eager for patrol or despatch
work. and endless stalwart young
women for such jobs as omnibus con-
ducting, milk delivering, gardening ani
the farm work that is generally doEe
by lads of nineteen or twenty.
"Of course, behind and beyond these
the great army of nurses. domestic
workers, clerical agents, and the num-
berless well educated intelligent woln-
en- who are fully capable of shop ana
general business work. Naturally
enough. qualified doctors. nurses and
dispensers are drafted out AZ soon as
they come i'm. Cooks and domestic
servants follow suit; but every day
register points to the fact that we have
here a mighty agent for the national
good
Will Meet Mems Obligations.
And so the Womens Emergency
Corps feels itself justified in making an
offer to the war office, the government
and the country at large-namely, that
they are prepared to find n paid SUBJ
stitute for any man who enlists: such
substitute to guarantee to leave the Joo
on the mans return and to take over
the mans belongings as personal
charge: that Is to say, while not bind
ing herself to give pecuniary assist
ance. she will see to it that allowances
are duly paid, that relief in special
circumstances is given, and generally
so far as in her lies, stand as friend
between the mans dependents and the
cold world.
"This is a big offer; II is one wtieh'
naturally. will require adjustment TO
each individual case; but IL Is one
which holds enormous advantaseA'

TRAGIC END OF
GENERAL IN THE
BRITISH RANKS
Parting SkslI From the Germans
Cuts Down Neil D. FindIay

London, Sept. 22.-The correspond
ont of the Daily Mail in France de-
scribes the death of Gen. Neil Douglas
tfndlay of the Royal Artillery, as fol-
lows:
when at dawn on Saturday the
British advance continued toward
scissors, the enemy was fighting an
exceptionally fierce rear guard action.
"A terrible shell fire was directed
against our artillery under Gen. Find
lay, temporarily situated in a valley
by the village of Prise 1t seemed a
matter of moments wnen we should
have to spike our guns. and Gen. Find
lay saw the urgency for action.
"'Boy s." hisvoice echoed down the
line, we are going to get every gun
into position Then deliberately the
general approached the regimental
chaplain kneeling beside gunner.
Here are some of my personal be-
longings, chaplain. See that they don't
go astray.'
one by one our guns began TO blaze
away and the general had word Of
encouragement and advice for every
man. In vain his staff tried TO per
suade him to leave the danger zone.
"Our range was perfect, the German
fire slackened and died away and with
a yell our men prepared to advance.
The outburst came to- soon. one part

AISNE RESULT
NOW DEPENDS
ON FRESH men
Allies and Germans Both Rush.
ing Reinforcements TO Stif-
fen Battle Lines
LONDON IS CONFIDENT
Tone Of Government CommuniCa
tionS Is Conservative, as U.s.
uaI, But Optimistic
LONDON IS CONFIDENT

London, Sept. 22.-The battle of the
Aisne has been the most sanguinary
combat of the history of the world.
Not taking into account losses in kill
ed. wounded and prisoners, at least
100000 men have contended with the
utmost ferocity. The Germans are
opposing 100000, to an allied force
of 100000.
This estimate of the forces engaged
may be retained, because it can be
assumed that the Germans and allies
have obtained reinforcements to fill
The gaps. These troops are stretched
from north of Noyon to north OF
obtuse angle, running southeast from
Noyon TO Craonne, Berry and
Rheims, and thenceforth east and
northeast to Montfaucon and the for
est of Argonne.
Strain Unimasi nable.
This is the main battle line where
human endurance is being put to un-
imaginable strain to demonstrate
whether the Germans can again as
sumo the offensive against Paris, or
will be broken and hurled back over
the frontier. Up to the present it is "a
drawn battle. The Germans evading
attempts to envelope their right and
left wings and themselves developing
a strong offensive in the center of the
battle line, which is east and north of
Rheims. have the advantage of en-
trenched and fortified positions.
The terrible slaughter of the last
eight days has been due largely to the
attempts of the allies to capture by
frontal attacks of infantry and light
artillery the keypoints OF this strong
line OF defense.
Battle Hot in Center.
The disposition of the forces re-
mains, in general, as follows:
At the west of the battle line. Cen
eral Won Kluck. constantly in danger
from turning movement, has been
forced to give way slightly by an
Anglo French army. In the main fight
ing at this point the German right has
been along the ridges north OF Novon
and in the wooded region OF Craonne.
At Berry-au- Bao and little east by
north of Rheims General Won Buelow
and General Won Enem have combined
in a furious endeavor to break the
French center. At the east end OF the
line. the Grand Duke of Wuerttem-
burg and Crown Prince Frederick
William. unable To check the French
advance altogether, have nevertheless
preserved the integrity of the whole
German battle line and are entrenched
west and north of Montfaucon.
The series of battles began at Sois-
sons, Sunday morning, September lS.
Won Kluck most closely pursued, was
therefore first to feel the impact of
the allies offensive. an attack
strengthened by the confidence gained
by British and French in the victories
of the Marne.
Germans Driven From Rheims.
The Germans had time TO form
behind their carefully prepared en-
trenchments Their first aim was to
prevent the Anglo-French force from
swarming across. the River Aisne to
ridges which would be favorable FOR
artillery. For several days German
copt;nued an 2nd Pace, 2nd Column.
