Paris, Sept. i5.-Military observers
here believe that the crown prince. In
command of the army near Verdun,
is in an extremely critical position
from which he will have to fight his
way out or surrender.
The crown prince has been driven
from his position north OF Rheims and
the French army is threatening his
line of retreat TO the west OF the Ar.
gonne region. Critics believe that he
may soon be surrounded.
Such result would have a tremen.
dous effect upon the war. The Ger.
man line would be broken and the
army OF Won Heeringen would be open
to attack from three sides. The only
thing that the crown prince could do
according to the critics, would be TO
fight his way south OF Verdun, and
this is regarded as an extremely
dangerous expedient because OF the
strong line OF forts at this point.
The heavy rains are not likely TO
facilitate the movement OF the famous
429-millimeter mortars that were 10

be headed toward Rethel and Mez

end OF the forest of the Argonne.
1t was reported that the armies OF
the crown prince, the Prince OF Ba.
varia and General Won Heeringen had
been forced across the frontier and
that the entire territory of French Lor
raine had been liberated.
This disposition of the German
armies, If confirmed, makes another
concentration in France, as suggested
by certain critics. impossible. IL

Buelow hotly pursued by the allies
and menaced by an enveloping move

B0DY'S SIXTH OCEAN TRIP.
Strange Events Have kspt Dead we-
man Travelling Back and Forth.

London.--The strange story OF an un-
buried body which is about To start
on Its sixth trip across the Atlantic
Is told by the DAILY Telegraph's Berlin
correspondent. A woman died In the
United States last summer Her new
ly married daughter aud her son-in-
law determined TO inter the body I'm
the mothers native place. Breslau. The
cemetery authorities there demanded
$3.50 for burial in the family vault,
and, regarding the charge exorbitant.
the daughter decided To take the body
back to America.
Upon arriving at New York, how
ever. she found awaiting her letter
TO the effect that the controllers OF the
cemetery were prepared To reduce the
price OF grave. whereupon she and
her husband forthwith returned with
the body to Breslau. There fresh
differences of opinion arose, and. as
there appeared to be no chance OF
agreement, the mothers body once
more was transported To New York
Shortly after this the daughter and
her husband became tired OF the land
Of their adoption and made up their
minds TO repatria themselves I'm Ger
many. Accordingly they packed up
their personal belongings and. with
the body OF the mother. once more ap-
peared I'm Breslau. Meanwhile the
difficulty with the proprictors OF the
cemetery was composed. and at last
the much travelled body was consigned
TO the tomb. But even now it Is not
TO be left I'm peace. The restless couple
decided that after all the new world
was better than the old and resolved
TO recross the Atlantic once more. TAX
ing with them the body OF the mother.
But the cemetery authorities refused
10 surrender the body, so the daughter
took the case before the law courts
The first decision given was against
her, but now, on appeal. she has OBJ
tained an order that her mothers body
be delivered to her.
