RUSSIANS LAYING WASTE TERRITORY
 THEY CAN'T HOLD Retreating Into Bessarabia; Slavs Burning Towns,
 Villages and Crops. TEUTONS CAPTURE
 TWO GRODNO FORTS
AustrO. Germans Force Passage of River Stry, and Are Advancing on Second of Triangle of Forts, Com.
 prisinx Russian Base in Galicia.

London, Sept. 2.-Half a million Austro- Germans, striking sledge- hammer ,eblows against the Russian southern wing, / have shaken the czar's front on the Dneister, accord ing to an offlci ial statement received here tonight from Vienna, and have compelled the Russians to retreat from the Dneister front to it's june tion with the Serthe.
 The Russians, falling back into Bessarabia, are setting fire to all the towns and villages along their line of retreat, destroying all crops and supplies to prevent them falling into the hands of the Germans.
 While in the north the Germans have captured two outer forts of Grodno and pierced the Grodno-Vilna railroad, their principal activity con tinues in Galicia, where large forces are being directed in an effort to clear the last strip of Galician terri tory of the Russians. Pressing through Zborow, the army of General Boethma is advancing against the Russians at Tarnopol,s ,ss-t last tGag slfcian city of any size still held sbX them. Other troops, under General Boehm- -Ermolli, have retaken Groda east of Lemberg, which, after the loss of Przemysl, became the location ol the Russian field headquarters.
 From Loutsk, which was captured yesterday, the Austro-Germans have forced a passage of the wide and marshy Stry and are advancing upon Rovno, second of the triangle of fort resses which serve the Russians as base north of the Galician frontier.
 Wilma is expected to be the next ob- iective of the Germans and its loss to the czar is conceded. It is an undefended city, and Teuton armies are converging upon it from north and south.

Little Rock, Sept. 2.-The unprece- dented drop in the market value of the English pound sterling is being felt all over the world.
 That this is true is shown by the fact that one Little Rock jobber buys 1000 bags of coffee a month in Brazil and pays for it in English sterling. A year ago he paid 16 cents premium for pound. now he can get it at 36 cents discount. diff. ference of 52 cents on each 5 pur. chase, or 10 per cent.
