The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1914-10-14

London, Oct. 14.-Out of the whole
mass of 'irreconcilable assertions re-
garding the war of nine nations arises
the seemingly established fact that the
Germans are attempting to repeat the
rapid sweeping movement which five
weeks ago took them almost to the
very gates Of Paris.
With most of the Belgians in German
hands, there is nothing, that can pre-
vent the invaders from reaching the
coast and remaining there at least tenn
porarily unless the British naval guns
are able to render their tenure impos-
sible. Should they take ostend it is
believed the length of their stay there
would be governed by the outcome of
the newest phase of fighting on the
western wing. 1t is understood an ex.
tensive engagement is opening near
the frontiers separating the provinces
of West Flanders. -
Few Allies In ostend. "a.
A dispatch from Ostend says only a
few British and French soldiers are
now in that city. This seems to indi-
cate that the allies have gone east to
meet the Germans in battle before thev
reach the city.
The Germans are reported to have
made an aeroplane attack on Nancy
Thursday, dropping bombs on a rail-
road train and hurting three persons.
Portugal Becomes Involved.
Interesting reports come from Por.
tugal. The Central News correspond.
ent says it Is reported that the German
minister to Portugal and other officials
are about to leave for Madrid. Another
Central News dispatch says it is re-
ported in Lisbon that Portugal has de.
clared war on Germany. This report
lacks official confirmation and is pub
lished in Madrid under reserve.
The French war office departed from
its usual procedure when making its
regular daily announcement today by
declaring false the reports that two di-
visions of the French cavalry have
been destroyed by the Germans on the
western battle line. The report gives
the operations of both cavalry forces
in detail and says the Germans lost as
many men as the French. The report
states further that operations on the
extreme western end are developing
normally" and reports of progress on
the center are confirmed. Nothing
new is reported of the operations on
the allies right.
Great Battle on Vistula.
The London Posts Petrograd cores.
pondent, writing Tuesday says he be-
lieves great battle had been going
on for three days between the Rus
SLAMS and the Austro-German armies
on the left bank of the vistula. He
says the battle line is believed.to be
sixty miles long.
The Russian advance of Cracow has
been withdrawn, and this is taken as
additional evidence that the Russians
lare concentrating their forces. The
: Petrograd correspondent says this also
indicates that neither side Is anxious
to attack the other violently.
Russians Evacuate Lemberg.

e the Austrian legation there announces

I berg, which they captured soon aftc{
