ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. "a
(via London The Russian front
has moved forward until its right
flank rests at Insterberg on the north,
with its left flank sixty miles to the
south.
Behind the army are functions on
important lines of railway, Inster-
berg in particular uniting eight rail-
ways and being highly important
from a military point OF view.
Goldap, anotner junction about half
way along the railway line, uniting
Lyck and Insterberg, is in Russian
hands.
InsterberE and Goldap, thirty-two
miles apart, may be taken as the ex-
tremities OF the Russian fighting front
while operations in the region about LyclI
are being undertaken as independent
movements designed to clear Germans
out Of the difficult country near Lake
Letz. This is largely a morass full of
narrow passages and now in possession
of the Russians who regard themselves as
effectually secure on the left flank of the
main armies.
Every Step Contested.
Every step was won by the most siren
uous fighting as the Germans put forth
their utmost strength to oppose the Rus
sian advance. The retreat OF the Twen-
tieth German army corps from the vicin-
ity OF Lyck was what civilians call a
rout, but the Russian commander-in-ch chief
was content to report the retirement as
Uf a hurried nature.
On the north or right flank the fight
ing was particularly obstinate and pro-
longed, three German army corps making
determined effort to outflank the Rus
SLAMS and fighting was of desperate
character, lasting for several days, until
finally on Saturday the Russians broke
the German defense, securing Insterberg
and the surrounding district.
Russians on Offensive.
The Russians assumed the offensive and
drove the enemy from the line of country
which the commander-in-chef required
for the development of the future tactics
On the left flank the Germans defeat
was of a signal character and an armi-
stice was asked ostenslbly for the purpose
of burying the dead and picking up tho
wounded.

fused to stop the battle when the Ger

The rupture Of relations between
Japan and Germany was effected in
a simple manner. A representative
of the German ministry of foreign
affairs proceeded Sunday morning to
the japanese embassy and handed
the Japanese charge d'affaires his
passports with the verbal remark
that Germany had no response to
make to Japan's ultimatum concern

Germans Advance in Five Columns.
ROTTERDAM, Aug. 24.-(Via
London. Noon. )-Accordin to the
best information obtainable here, the
disposition of the German forces in
Belgium is broadly as follows:
"The right flank, occupying the
entire territory Immediately south of
Antwerp, is moving southwest In the
direction of Lille. A second force is
moving on Maubeuge, fifty miles
southeast of Lille, in the department
of Nord, and third is occupied wita
the reduction of the Namur forts,
which consist of nine defenses OF
steel and concrete surrounding the
city. 1t is estimated that these
three columns together comprise
nearly a quarter of a million men.
The main northern German army is
advancing slowly, with its front ex-
tending from Givet, France, to Died
enhofen, in Larraine. The French
defenses from LaFere to Reims are
thought to be the objective of this

YOKE SKIRTS IN
FALL FASHIONS

While some long tunic skirts with
long coats are still being shown
manufacturers have found 1t more
advisable to make a straight line
skirt with the long coat.
Among the favorite modes are ma
chine or side plated skirts. These
look particularly we'll under long
coats. Other types Of skirts are be
ing shown, however. including accor
dion plaits and cluster plaits. Others
have plated panels back and front
and some have only a few plaits in
set at the side cores.
Many yoke skirts are being made
for fall and are looked upon with
favor. In some instances the skirts
have belts. These are placed oveI
the hips and are buttoned down the
front, giving the yoke effect.
When the short coat is employed
however, the long tunic skirt often
is used in conjunction with it.

TO CACHE SUGAR

On account Of the large crop Of
sugar beets this season. many beets
Will have to be stored In sheds and
piles for months before they are work
ed up In the factory, and in order
for these beets to keep. they must be
stored away In proper manner.
They must be properly topped, or
when they get warm In the pile they
commence to grow and this takes the
sugar out of the beets: they should
be free from frost, leaves and dirt
to keep good. Some farmers deliver
them In proper way, they plow out
as many as they can top In the same
day. clean off n place for their piles
so there are no rocks, clods or leaves
and then when they load their bects
they shake the dirt off as they load
them into tho wagons, topping them
well and IL more are dug than they
can haul, they cover them up with
leaves; then they can haul them
when they get ready. So far these
farmers are living up to their cen.
tract.
Others will plow out lot Of beets
poorly top them. throw them in piles
on leaves clods and rocks. and leave
them uncovered to freeze. Then they
load them into their wagons Leets
frozen, with clods, leaves or rocks,
never shaking any dirt off as they
load them and try to get as much
trash as possible. These men as q
rule are the ones who talk the most
against the sugar company.
In the beet contract signed by the
farmers, Is the following:
"The farmer agrees to cultivate.
harvest and deliver his beets In n
husband like manner, to the satisfac-
ton of the Sugar Company and the
Field Superintendent, to protect the
beets from frost and sun during har-
vesting and delivery"
In another place 1t reads:
'Beets that are improperly topped,
diseased, frozen or damaged. ETC., will
not be received. The Sugar Com
pany reserves the right to reject any
wagon loads containing any undesir-
able beets as herein before describ-
ed"
Farmers who do not top their beets
properly will lose 25 or so cents per
ton on them for when they are TAX
en- from the loads and tested, they
use tops and all In testing for sugar
and some tops have been tested and
were only per cent In sugar con.
tent, hence these tops are loss to
the farmer and Sugar Company, but
Il great benefit to the land when left
and plowed under.
The Sugar Company requires the
beets to be delivered in accordance
with the contracts made between the
company and the farmers. All
agents receiving beets are forbidden
to receive them only In accordance
with the beet contracts.

means to philanthropic purposes.
Mr.. Lindabury expects to conclude
his argument tomorrow, when he will
be followed by Henry Il. Cotton. spe-
cial assistant to the attorney gener.
al, who will speak on the acquisition
BY the steel corporation of the ore
lands In the northwest.
Mr.. Lindabury reminded the court
that the petition of the government
charged that the steel corporation and
thirteen OF its fifteen subsidiaries
were organized in violation of the
antitrust law.
I'VE do not consider the legality of
the organization of these subsidiar-
les open to inquiry in this case" he
said, "or their status or practices
prior to the organization of the steel
corporation, directly in issue"
Organization Result
Mr.. Lindabury then took up the
question Of whether the organization
of the steel corporation resulted in
restraining trade or creating mon
opoly. This, he said, can be answer
ed only after it has been determined
what is meant by the term restraint
of trade" and monopoly" as used in
the Sherman act. AS to this, he add
ed, the authors OF the act, members
of the bar and judges, have differed
more or less for twenty years He
contended that suppression of compe-
tition does not always restrain trade
and quoted decisions of the United
States supreme court in the Standard
Oil, Tobacco and other cases to sup
port his view.
Unless 1t can be found that the
steel corporation at the time the suit
was filed was restraining trade, Mr..
Lindabury added, the case falls.
Speaking of the extent of the COM
petition OF the steel company, Mr..
Lindabury referred to Mr.. Dickin-
sons statement yesterday that five
great groups of financial and indus
trial interests had combined to form
the steel corporation. He said Mr..
Dickinson's statement was picture
of imagination; that there was no
combination Of the Morgan, Rookie
Teller, Gates, Moore and Carnegie in
terests, but that, on the other hand.
the formation of the corporation was
q natural outgrowth Of conditions.
There was no substantial competition
among the subsidiaries taken over
by the corporation, he said. He quot
