the French and English to gain de-

FRENCH FALL BACK.

London.-Though the German right
is less than forty miles from the Bel
gian frontier. never since the out
break of the war, apparently, have
the people of Great Britain been more
reconciled to the idea that the strug-
gle yet to come will be long and ter
rible.
When the Germans first began to
retreat after their rush toward Paris
hope ran high that some master stroke
would bring complete rout to the in
yaders. Now however, many observ-
ers emphasize that, even should the
so-called battle line be terminated, the
Germans would only fall back on
equally strong intrenchments.
After having tried in vain, in the
north of France. to break the Allies
lines at Tracy-le-Mont and then at
Roye, the Germans have renewed
their fierce attacks between the lat.
ter city and Arras.

Germans Haste
Seen in Hot Fire
at Antwerp
krupp Workers Aid in Directing Big
Guns, and Infantry Are Hurled
ReckIessly Forward to Cap
ture the Defenses.

In Belgium.-The Germans are
making a desperate attempt to cap
ture Antwerp, and they are in
great hurry to do it They are pound
ing away with Austrian mortars at
forts Waelhem and Wavre-St Cattle
rine, and at time fiinging their in
fantry forward in frantic efforts to
break through. So far they have
suffered terrific losses.
An attempt by Landsturm battal-
ions and marines to occupy forts
Waelhem and Wavre-St. Catherine
was an extraordinary error of judg-
ment ON the part of the German COM
mander. Believing the forts had been
silenced by the explosions of the AZ
centimetre shells, he sent forward an
assaulting force estimated at from,
twelve to fifteen thousand men, sup
ported by field artillery, to take them
with the bayonet.
Both forts had slackened their fire
gradually. Finally it ceased altogeth-
er, and the German General apparent
ly concluded they were hors de COM
bat. The attacking force went for
ward without hindrance, covered by
the guns. It was allowed to approach
within three hundred yards of the
forts before any sign of life was APP
parent. Suddenly Waelhem and
Wavre-St. Catherine the dead and
wounded were piled seven feet high.
The wounded men who lay under
meath were suffocated, their bodies
being found afterward in contorted
and agonized positions,
The attacking force attempted to
rally and continue its hopeless task,
but only for few moments. The old
men who compose the Landsturm bat
talions could not stand that wither-
ing fire, and the marines who ven-
tured with them across that plain of
death were wholly unused to such
warfare. They broke and fed back
toward their own lines, leaving trail
of bodies all the way to the outskirts
of Mechlin. Hundreds of villagers
were pressed into service by the Ger
mans to bury their dead, and many
were burned in great piles that were
saturated with petrol.
Already the bombardment of the
forts has laid waste the populous dis
trict stretching from Lierre on the
east to Willsbroeck on the west and
from Mechinl to Antwerp.
The German guns are not being
worked by regular soldiers, but by
men in civilian clothes with military
armlets. undoubtedly employees of the
Krupps, many of whom are known to
have arrived at Brussels.
So far the only damage done has
been inflicted, not on the Antwerp
forts, but ON the villages situated near
them.
Here awful devastation has been
caused. The enormous projectiles
from the Krupp guns have razed
while villages. It is impossible to
approach anywhere near this she'll
shattered area but there are many
witnesses. Refugees have fed in
thousands.

GERMANS IN STRONG POSITIONS.

London.-Having repulsed the Ger
man attacks, presumably in the neigh
borhood of Roye, the French, the Par
is official communication reported,
haye resumed the offensive at several
points, and other positions on their
left have been appreciably maintained.
Progress is reported in scissors,
German trenches having been storm
ed and taken with bayonet charges.
The great effort of the Allies to
envelop the German right may there
fore be said to be in operation again,
and it is believed the whole French
column from Roye northward to Arras
is moving eastward against the Ger
man positions.
1t is the same operation that has
been tried repeatedly for the last
three weeks in an attempt to reach
the German lines of communication
and either incircle the German army
forming the right wing or force it to
fall back to Belgium and Luxembourg.
The Germans have had long time
in which to make their positions Sc
cure, SO there is lot of hard fight
ing ahead for both the attacking
forces and the defenders. The de-
fensive role is now apparently being
assumed by the invaders.
In the centre, from the Disc to the
Argonne, the two well-intrenched ar
mics are still watching each other,
ready at moments notice to meet
attacks, or, on the advice of aerial
observers, to move to some point
where the line is threatened.
Though there have been many of
these movements, there is little to re.
cord. the French report says. The
situation remains virtually as it was.
In the. Argonne district, where the
Grown Princes army attempted an adj
vance a<few days ago, there has been
additional fighting, with the result
that the Germans have been pushed
back northward.

German Armies
Are Not Lacking
in Men and Supplies

Berlin.-The following semi-oficial
communication was issued:
According to announcement made
in Berlin the great battle in France
is still undecided The Germans are
described as hammering the French
positions at numerous points by their
heavy artillery. The attempts Of the
Allies to break through the German
lines have been repulsed. The heavi-
est losses have been in the Argonne
region.
The Germans continue to make
steady progress.
In the fighting before Antwerp the
German artillery has silenced two of
the Belgian forts. German troops cap
tured thirty aeroplanes sent from
France to Belgium.
In the eastern arena of the war the
Russian offensive movement from the
Niemen River against the Germans
In the Province Of SuwalEi, is de-
clared to have failed. 1t is officially
reported that the Russian fortress at
Ossowetz, in Russian Poland, was
bombarded by the Germans until Sep
TENDER 20.
The fighting in France, the siege
Of Antwerp, and the offensive opera
lions under General Won Hindenberg,
all going on at the same time, are
taken in Berlin to indicate that the
German army is not lacking in men
and supplies.

Won KLuck MAKES GAIN.

London.-An attempt. by the ex-
treme left of the. Allies forces in
France to rush Gen. Won Kluck's
right at Arras and thus cut his line
of communication with the German
forces in Belgium, failed.
Won Kluck's wing, heavily rein
forced, met the Arglo-French troops
sent from Amiens to do the job more
than half way and drove them some
distance north Of Arras, after fierce
battle.
In the region around Roye and
Lassigny 35 miles south of Arras,
north of the Disc, the center of Won
Kluck's army took the offensive and
kept the Allies, aided by the newly
arrived East Indian troops, busy hold
ing their own.
On the Mouse, the French prevent
ed the Germans from crossing to the
left bank of the river by a hot ar
tillery fire, and made gains around st.
Mihiel and Apremont.
Rheims is still being shelled, but
otherwise there is little action along
the center Of the 26O-mile battle line.
All this is gathered from the official
statements issued by the French and
German War Offices.
Although strongly reinforced, the
Germans failed again in the desper-
ate effort to break through the Allies
line between Roye and Lassigny.
Every attack was more violent than
the preceding one, but all were futile.
The Allies line held like a rock at
their base. The extreme point of the
flanking movement was checked by
the Germans at point east and north
of Arras, and there detachment CT
the Allied forces was forced to with
draw. North Of the Somme, however,
they continued to make progress,
which daily places Won Kluck's army
in greater danger.
