EXHAUSTED GERMANS
IN BAD POSITION TO
THE EAST OF PARIS
Great Battle Which Has Been Raging
for Four Days Is Still Being Carried
on Furiously = Only Hope In Armies
to the Northeast

Paris, Sept. British officers and soldiers arriving
from the front today declare that the four days battle
which still continues to the east of Paris being carried
furiously.
They assert that the French captured considerable
number of field and machine guns, while the Germans
often surrendered in groups.
The Germans progress seems to have been rapid and
too precptae it's eagerness get the gates of Paris
for they arrived out of breath and to all appearances out
of ammunition which may explain why they did not pur
sue their original plan.
All prisoners of whom 300 or more arrived in Paris
yesterday appear tagged and harassed and the spirit Of
the army to be everything that different from the
conquerors who pushed back the army of defense from
the frontier and reached the gates of the capital in 10 days
Whether they hoped to gain time by tangent move
ment away from Paris, some military critics sup
pose aimed to effect junction with the army of the
prince which to from the direction of Longwy
the developments of the last four days prove that
grave error.
The army, already weakened by forced marches,
slant fighting route and further enfeebled by the
engagements of the last four days. is not in the opinion Of
experts prepared for such big enterprise the siege of
Paris if it retreves it's fortunes in the battle in
progress.
The only hope of the Germans, therefore, lies in the
armies the northeastern frontier coming to the rescue
and this hope seems too long deferred.

Spirit Of AUSTRIA IS BROKEN;
ARMIES ARE Being BEATEN
BACK AT every POINT

London. Sept. s.--The correspondent
Of the Daily Mail in Milan. who has
lately been in Vienna, draws a gloomy
picture of that empire. He says:
Panic rules in Austria. The great,
unwieldly and bankrupt empire,
dragged reluctantly at the heels of
Germany. is in a state of desperate
muddle and fear. Her armies. half
hearted at first and now openly mutin-
Gus, are beaten back at every point by
the Russians.
THE policy of mixing in each COM
pany men of the different races which
compose the empire has had the result
that there is no esprit de corps in the
army. The men were driven into trains
at the point of the bayonet and scores
were shot by their officers to terrorize
their fellows into obedience.

EYES OF GERMANY
TURNED TOWARD
EASTERN front
Importance of Checking the
Advance of the Russian
Army in Galicia Is Fully
Realized.

Berlin, Sept. s, via London, Sept. O.
Sergeant Major Werner of the aviation
corps returned today from the front
after making repeated scouting flights
over the French and British troops.
Speaking of his experiences, he took
the opportunity to pay a tribute to the
valor. bravery and daring of the Brit
ish troops.
He described as his most thrilling
flight one in which he battled with
two aeropanes OF the enemy, one a
British biplane and the other a French
monoplane Both were must faster than
his machine, which was old and bat
tered.
MY two enemies flew beside and
about me for a long time" he said.
Il expected momentarily that they
would throw bombs, but apparently
they had none. Both fired revolvers re-
peatedly in my direction and replied
with my revolver but none of the shots
were effective. After an anxious quar-
ter of an hour drew them toward the
German lines and they were compelled
to withdraw"
All Eyes Turned Eastward.
The wires were silent today and
there was no important news from
either the eastern or western fronts,
but the quiet is probably only pre-
liminary to events of great important.
All eyes here the turned eastward to
the hard pressed Austrian army in
Galicia, where the Importance of ad-
ministering a check to the Russian in
vading army appears quite as great,
from a general point of view. as the
vigorous pursuit of the French cam

paralyzed by fear of an attack from

men are ruined by a war which they
hate.

Galicia. During the first few weeks
of the war, Germany and Austria vir-
tually dictated the direction of the
campaigns along the Russian border
because of the inadequacy of Russian
railroad and other transport. But this
situation has been radically changed
by the Russian successes in Galicia.
Russia now appears to be assuming
the offensive in east Prussia. She has
thrown 100000 men along the border
This action is regarded here as a men
ace against the heart of Germany
which cannot remain unanswered
Hence the stories of the movements OF
German veterans from the western wal
area to the eastern Prussian frontier
are generally considered credible.
The latest Russian success, the cap
ture of the fortress of Nicolaieff, about
% miles southwest Of Lemberg, is al
most as great a feat as the taking oil
Lemberg itself. The place is not only
strongly fortified, but it was believed
to be virtually unassailable owing tc
the fact that it was surrounded by
marshes extending 25 miles,
One of the most significant features
of the Austrian misfortunes is the
growing uneasiness in Rumania and
other Balkan states. Montenegro and
Servia already are engaged against
Austria and have taken the offensive
Rumanias is also hungry for territory
and is said to be ready at any moment
to throw her 100000 veteran troops
against Austria.
Another brilliant success along the
border by the troops of Emperor Mich
olas is almost certain to unite the SlaN
states of southeastern Europe to hel
cause.
Russia evidently has again begun hel
advance along the east Prussian from.

ported so miles beyond Koenigsbere
