LONDON, Aug. 24-The combined Aus
tro- Hungarian and German forces fight
ing at the southern extremity OF the
Russian front have forced their way
far TO the east Of the Bug and yesterday,
says a despatch from Vienna, cavalry
forces entered the important railway
centre at Kovel
This means that the southern railway
from Brest-Litovsk to Kiefr and Mos
COW is rendered practically impassable
as a means of retreat for the Russian
forces holding Brest- Litovsk. If it has
not indeed been actually cut and thus
rendered absolutely impossible. Such
being the case the situation OF the Rus
sian forces at ana about Brest-Litovsk
has become hazardous TO say the least,
more especially so because the one line
OF flight now left is in serious danger
itself
The Austrian War Office issued the
following statement to-day at Vienna:
Northwest Of Brest-Litovsk the
Russians who have offered resistance
In the Wiershowice and Rama dis
tricts were forced to retreat again
YESTERDAY The army of Archduke Jo-
seph Ferdinand in It's last battles
has taken 1900 prisoners of the rank
and file and 4 officers.
Northeast of Nladova the Germans
have again repulsed the enemy and
have made gains. Austro- fiungarl-
ans and German cavalry pursuing the
Russians have entered koNel, forty
miles southeast of Brest-Litovsk, and
are now advancing northward.

KILLING AMERICANS CONTRARY

WASHINGTON MORE HOPEFUL
WHAT GERMANY SAYS
ABOUT ARABIC DISASTER

TOUNT VON BERNSTORFF
~ gave out the following mes
sage from his Government yes
terday afternoon through his
secretary. DR.. Adler, at the Ritz
Carlton Hotel:
The German Ambassador re-
ceived the following instruc-
tions from Berlin, which he
communicated to the Depart
ment of State:
$50 far no official informa-
tion is available concerning the
sinking of the Arabic.
"The German Government
trusts that the American Gov
ernment will not take a
definite stand after hearing
only the reports of one side,
which in the opinion of the
Imperial Government cannot
correspond with the facts, but
that a chance will be given to
Germany to be heard equally.
Although the Imperial Gov
ernment does not doubt the
good faith of the witnesses
whose statements are reported
by the newspapers in Europe,
it should be borne in mind that
these statements are naturally
made under excitement, which
might easily produce wrong
impressions.
"If Americans should ac-
tually have lost their life, this
would naturally be contrary to
our intentions.

Hear him thus:
Let the President take a ballot on
the question OF war with Germany IL he
is so anxious to do the right thing
and ease his conscience. Let everybody
vote from the President and Cabiret

be clearly stated on the ballots that

for war will have 10 go to the front first.
And when they are killed or return
