the general Russian outflankine move

main German line from Sieradz to
CzenstOchOwa (Russian Poland). the
last German position i'm Russian ter

SLAMS have taken KOlo and the Ger

OF Sieradz is now in progress
The German right is outflanked by
the Russians in possession of Andre

west of that base. This appears to af-
ford foundation for the report of an
exodus OF German troops from Cen
stOchOwa. Meanwhile it is apparent
that communication between the Ger

army has been severed The Russians,
taking advantage of this fact, have
thrown troops between the river
Warthe and the lower Vistula and are
concentrating especially around Vlotz-

RUSSIA WANTS
C0NSTANTIN0PLE
Would Make That City the
Capital of Russia, Driv-
ing the Turks Out.

London, Eng. Nov. 9.-Now that Ger
many has been beaten back throusII
Poland to east Prussia, no RUSSIAN Il
doubts that COnstantinople will be inc
capital Of Russia. Constantinople Is
considered the natural, as well as MS
torical goal for RLssia's conquest az
cording to the PetrOgrad correspondent
of the Post. The correspondent says
THE rapidity of the movement on
the battlefelds in Poland have been
urequaled since the days Of Napoleon;
Deducting the time spent IN acluaL
fighting, the Russian pursuit has Deen
pressed for more than week at a
rate averaging ii miles per day, over
the Polish roads, which are very heaEy
after the rainy season.
There is believed to be no DOUBT
that the Germans in their retEea'
passed CzenschtoWO without stopplnS-
The troops of this column, which ap-
parently were marching in good order
were probably the first line of the
German divisions extricated from the
disastrous fighting in Poland at me
cost of the reserve troops and the
allied Austrians.
German Invasion Abandoned.
Similar tactics seem to have been
employed on other points win the Oo-
ject of preserving the hest troops. rms
would appear to Indicate that the Ger
mans have given up their Russian m
vasion and viii once more concentrate
against France and Great Britain IN
have cut the railway at Pleschen, are
sending along forces with great rapid
ity on both flanks of the positions on
which the defeated Germans are re-
treating"
VIII Turn to Eastern Question.
The correspondent continues:
Grand duke NichOlas's reference, IN
announcing his victory, TO
the task of opening a new period OF the
war means if I am not mistaken, that
Russia will now turn her main atten-
ton towards the settlement of the
eastern question. This means first and
for emost the breaking up of Austria.
Hungary, followed by the expulsion Oh
the Turk from Europe and possibly the
reconstruction of a new Armenia
among other rearrangements Of the
Balkan states No Russian DOUBTS
that COnstantinOple is the natural
sacrifice will be thought too great Tor
the attainment of this goal

GERMANS ADMIT
LEAVING POLAND
Russians Are Rumored to
Have Crossed the East
Prussian Frontier.

Berlin GERMANY. Nov. 9-The first
reference showing the direction anu q
tent of the German retirement from DC
fore Warsaw was contained Ioudy n d
Russian cavalry near kolO, 10 miles
from the German frontier rms SHOWS
that the Germans have retired Dehlhu
the Warthe river, which, roughly, par
slleis the German eastern 1rontler, ana
according to Mai. Mor6ht, military cor
respondent of the Berliner TageblatL
that the German forces have probably
been withdrawn north OF the Warthe
on the west Prussian frontier
There have been rumOrS for the past
few days regarding the penetration OF
the Russians into German territory
some even mentioning Bromberg, WhIcn
lies So miles northeast OF Posen ana
timid inhabitants of the border regions
from Breslau north to Posen have been
abandoning their country houses, re
Eardless of the presence between them
and the Russians of Gen. Won linden
berg's strong army.
Can't Get 70 Dunkirk.
Maj. Moraht, discussing the situation
in the western arena, says the three
last bulletins have shown that an at
tack along the coast on a large scale
against Dunkirk has been rendered I'M
practicable, but declares that the situa-
ton is equally hopeless for the allies
left, which has repeatedly indicated an
intention to force the Germans back
upon Antwerp and render the position
between Lille and Arras untenable.
Tic Germans, he adds, are now able
to use the troops from the User district
elsewhere and need only small forces
to check any enterprise along the
dunes, artillery preparations between
the Ostend-HOlland frontier being suf-
ficient to repulse any attempts to de-
bark an expedition against the German
rear.
Struggle Progresses Around Ypres.
A decisive struggle on this wing
continues Maj. Moraht, is progressing
around Ypres, which is now enveloped
from the east. south and southwest and
he declares that the allies retirement
is practicable only in nOrtherly or
westerly directions and that an attempt
to break through the strong forces in
the region of Lille would be fruitIess.
The allies will have held Ypres to no
avail if the German advance on the
front between La Bassee and Arras
continues.
The French" says the critic. can
not Indefinitely continue strengthen
ing their forces there and at the same
time remain strong enough along the
Arras-N oyon-Verdun front against the
increasing German pressure German
progress on the Aisne the last few
days IS gratifying: the Germans now
hold about 1872 miles on the north bank
between Vailly and Berry-ad-Bec and
also the crossings over the stream and
canals. The abandonment of Sapiene1,I
and Soupir are regrettable but only
local"

APPEAL FOR AID
FOR BELGIANS
Americans Asked to Pro
vide Food and Money to
Relieve Famine.

New York. Nov. 9.-The Belgian re-
lief committee here. which is cooperat-
ing with the Rockefeller foundation in
aiding the furnishing Belgians has ap-
pealed ii people throughout the United
states to come to the relief of the suf-
fering in Belgium, with food or money,
or both. Large quantities of food must
be sent from America. to meet the abso-
lutte necessities of the starving non
cOmbatants
In order to avoid competition in the
purchase of supplies and the conse-
quent increase in prices. the relief COM
mittee urges that chambers OF COM
merce, boards of trade, wOmen's clubs
or other organizations throughout the
United States send money contributions
or nonperishable foods to the Belgian
commission here
VIII Charter ships.
After the receipt Of shipments OF
food the Rockefeller committee will
take charge of the ocean transpOrta-
ton. The foundation has arranged to
provide a steamship pier, to charter
ships and to convey free Of all charge
from New York to Belgium all supplies
contributed by the American public.
The foundation is now negotiating to
obtain another large neutral ship to
follow the Massapequa, which sailed for
Rotterdam last Tuesday with a 100000
cargo of food. The American committee
in London of which ambassador Page
is chairman has provided for distribu-
ton stations in Belgium under the i'm
mediate supervision OF the American
consuIs in the afflicted districts.
Can't Take Perishables.
Perishable goods, such as potatoes,
apples and other fresh vegetables ana
fruits cannot be accepted. as all ship
ments must stand the railroad journey
to New York, transfer here and long
sea voyage. Wheat flour, rice, peas,
beans, canned goods. cured OF salted
meats and coffee are the supplies most
desired, by the committee.
This method Of extending relief, the
committee points out, is by no means
intended to Interfere with the freedom
of any person or organization to render
aid in any way which seems advisable,
| but rather to provide efficient trans
portation and distributiop facilities
which may be freely utilized by all who
! desire to avail themselves of such CO.
| operation.

the report makes public a letter from
president GOmpers to Rafael Zubaran
Capmany, saying the Federation more

States, aided the success of the pros

withdrawal of the avOwed declaration
of those who speak or assume to
speak in the name of General Car
ranza'' that "retribution of the most
draconian character" would be visited
upon those responsible for the over
throw of Madero. Such a withdrawal
