 Reynolds showed what an accom- f,lished finished boxer he was in g. four round tilt with Teddy F,abryck Of Fairfield, who is to meet Kid Pal mer of this city in the opening bout of the same card. Reynolds and Fab ryck battled swiftly for a quartet of stanzas. de1ighting the fans.
 Al Ketchell, who is to meet Bunny Ford, in one Of the feature bouts Of the bill. is also training at Bond s and he is in tip-top shape. The youngster confidently expects to beat Bunny Ford, the great New Haven veteran, in their ten round bout.

Work of British Army
and Gets Reply.

London, Sept S.--The official press
bureau announces that NJ. MIllerand,
the French War Minister, has sent 20
Lord Kitchener the following telegram
dated Bordeaux, September 7:
II am pleased to transmit TO you the
following telegram, which General
Joffre directed me to send to you;
"'The commander in chief of the
French armies expresses to Lord Kitch-
ener his warm thanks for the constant
support given 70 our armies by the
British forces during the whole course
of the operations. At the present mo-
ment that support is most valuable and
rs manifest, and in = very energetic
manner, in the action now engaged
against the German right wing
81 am expressing my gratitude 20
Field Marshal French. who has always
lent to our armies the most effective
collaboration. ALLOW me, in the name
of the government. 20 join the express
sion of my gratitude to that Of the
general in chief"
To this Lord Kitchener has replied:
"Pray accept and transmit TO General
Joffre my most sincere thanks for the
telegram you have had the kindness
10 address to me. | ask you TO believe
and cause General Joffre TO be told
how content the British army is 10 find
itself collaborating with the French
army, and how proud we are of the
task Of bringing TO them the support
of which you speak 80 generously and
upon which you can always rely with
the greatest confidence

U. S. MAIL SEARCHED,
GERMANS ALICE
.tFrom n. 1,rbun. Ruresu.

Washington, Sept s..-A charge that
American mail to Germany is being
searched by the British is contained in
u wireless dispatch from Berlin re-
ceived at the German Embassy to-day.
The dispatch says:
"The British seize or search all
American mail destined for Germany
found on Dutch steamers. Americans
and relatives staying here are very IN
easy on account Of the impossibility Of
getting news from the other side"
No complaint about the seizure Of
American mail has been received at the
Department of State. British Embassy
officials say there is probably little, II
any, foundation for the charge made in
the dispatch.

Prisoners Admit Shortage
Were Told to Save
All They Could.

London, Sept 9.-The Paris CORES
poudcnt Of THE Daily News tele-
graphs a. follows last evening:
Paris is rejoicing over the extreme
" satisfactory nature of this after
Moons official statement. The enemy
is being pushed back without great
difficulty eastward along both banks
Of the Marine.
"This afternoon | drove out 10 the
FTanCO-B advance lines and talked
with the soldiers, who confirmed the
news that the enemy is retrcating fur
Their and further from Paris. On my
way saw 300 German prisoners. many
wounded, who had been taken at MeauX,
en- route for Paris. Many of the men
were without hats or tunics. Crowds
of people assembled 1T the railway sta
tions to watch the train conveying the
prisoners pass slowly through. The
men seemed cowed and frightened out
Of their wits as one observer eX-
pressed il.
at is satisfactory TO learn that our
casualties Yesterday were not heavy.
One wounded sergeant told me that the
German retreat was precipitate for
eighteen miles. Over this distance the
enemy did not fire a single shot, but

constantly firing on the retreatiHG
army and pursuing with the greatest
eagerness. Nine guns were taken by
the allies. The German prisoners state
that the enemy are short Of ammunI-
ton, and they had orders 20 save as
many cartridges s possible. ,
"A French officer, slightly wounded
in pursuit, told me he thought at least
two army corps, comprising the major
portion of the German extreme right
wing, have been beaten as result OF
Saturday and Sundays fighting. H.e
had himself seen 800 of the enemy's
dead in a single trench.
"The French cavalry greatly distin-
guished themselves on Sunday, charg-
ING down on the German artillery with
a brillance quite in keeping with the
dash displayed at Charleroi and Guise
II is obvious to me that the German
prisoners were in the last stages OF
fatigue, and they admitted that they
had retired through many villages
without firing a shot"

SUFFRAGE DOOMED
If GERMANY WINS
ChristabeI Pankhurst Says
British Defeat Would
Be Disaster to Cause.
TBy Gable 70 The Tribune

Tondon. Sept. s-Christabel Panb-
hurst, lust returned from her exile IN
France, spoke tonight in the London
Opera House to rouse the spirit OF
militancy" in the men of England. and
TO exhort them to volunteer. She said:
woman in England to-day has had
the most recent experiences OF war
fare. and il H. her duty to urge idlers
TO take tEeir part ~ the war now be-
ING fought for TIE very existence OF the
empire. We militants have gladly LAID
aside our particular quarrel because on
the safety of England rests our chance
of ultimate success IN our struggle
Were we subjected TO Germany, II
would be many years before we could
reach even our present position In the
state"
Miss Pankhurst went on 20 declare
TINT woman was ready TO go 10 the
front, but that she had far harder and
fraver duties at home. such as 70 keep
the state in such economic condition
that the men would be able 10 stay at
the front and not be starved. she
spoke of the feeling in England OF
danger from Russia, and said this rear
had been inculcated largely by Ger
many to make England hesitate before
her imminent and very present peril
at the thought of danger far distant.
She said:
~ have more fear of Germany than
Of Russia. and more hope of Russia
than Of Germany, because in Russia
there is an internal resistance to
tyranny which, like the militant re-
sistance in England, argues for life,
but in Germany the people remain su-
pine under the crushing yoke Of mill
tarism and bureaucracy
