FRENCH LEFT WING
IS FALLING BACK
Russian Front Scene Of Events
That Probably Are Of the
Greatest Magnitude,

London, Aug 31.--From all the far
spread battle lines only bulletins Of
Napoleonic brevity have come in the
past twenty-four hours. History is be-
ing made on three great fields OF &C
tion-along $50 miles of French from.
tier, on 200 miles of the Austria Hun
garian border and through wide
aera of Eastern Prussia.
Silence has covered Austria's war
with Servia for several days, but that
has become minor detail of the death
struggle of the European powers.
The Russian front is the scene Of
the greatest magnitude, but between
the assertions and counter assertions
of the belligerents there is such a
vital difference it is impossible to form
an estimate of which way the balance
swings.
From Northern France the news ap.
pears to follow events by three or four
days The French embassy announces
tildL LllClo lIS bGcll lldlu uSutlIiS vi
the right wing of its northern army
near MeZieres since Friday and also
that the German forces are making
progress in La Fere district, which ap'
parently means that the French left
wing has retired somewhat further
but it is not revealed how near the
Germans have approached to La Fere
fortress.
The British official reports issued
Sunday showed that the British army
no longer constitutes the left wing Of
the allied forces, but that the French
have reinforced them On the west. 1t
further says that the French have
been fighting both east and west OF
them and have brought the German
steam roller to standstill for a time

ASQU|TH CR|7|C|SES
THE LONDON TIMES

London, Sept. 1.-Premier Asquith
publicly reprimanded the London
Times in the house of commons for
having published the dispatch which
created such excitement Sunday
morning.
THE publication of this dispatch"
said the premier, seems to me re-
grettable exception to the patriotic
reticence which the press as a whole
has shown up to the present, and |
trust it will not occur again
Mr.. Asquith opposed the suggestion
to allow correspondents to go to the
front, but admitted that the public
was entitled to prompt and anthem
tic information as to what was hap
pening there and said arrangements
were made which he hoped would
prove adequate.

Paris, Sept 1.--While no official in
formation regarding the military sit
uation on the French frontier has
been made public it is considered sig
nificant that Paris is preparing for a
siege. All night long troops from
the south and west Of France have
been arriving at the capital and
passing by rail around the city to the
location in the encircling fortifica-
tions to which they have been assign
ed. News dispatches say the Ger.
mans are pressing towards Paris.
There is great activity on the part
OF the municipal military administra.
ton in completing the details of the
plans for the defense of Paris.
The unusual animation noticed on
the streets of Paris was caused chief
ly by the thousands of persons who
are preparing to leave the capital.
Persons are departing and taking
their families with them as a matter
of prudence. 1t is felt here that the
fewer the number of noncombatants
in the city the better will be the op-
portunities for defense.
Lines OF people stretched for blocks
from the railway stations. The
lines were of those so anxious to
leave the city that they took their
positions waiting for the ticket offices
to be opened at 6 a. m. Whole
families with their hand baggage
camped in the lines, where they ate
their meals.

REPORTS BRITISH DEFEAT
German Paper Declares Retreat Has
Been Cut OF.

Berlin, via Copenhagen and Lon
don, Aug. 31.-The correspondent at
German headquarters Of the Deutsches
Tagesches-Tages Zeitung reports the
defeat OF the English at st. Quentin
accompanied by great losses. The
army. utterly defeated, he says, found
it's retreat barred by masses of Ger
man cavalry. The correspondent
adds:
''It is particularly satisfactory that
the English suffered not only the loss
of their communication with the
northern French army, but also their
communication along the road to the
west and their depots, which, accord
ing to French statements, they had
established at Maubeuge."
