) STRANGER PROVES ROBBER
 0F WORST TYPE
w. R. Chipman, Bound for Pine Bluff, Slugged,
 Drugged and Robbed.

Knocked s5nseless. drugged and robbed in the railroad yards at Tex arkana Friday night, while en route to Pine. Bluff, w. R. Chipman, a far mer of near Port Lavaca, Texas, reached this city yesterday. accom- panied by his brother-in-law; J. w. Dutton, with whom he is now visit ing. ''-~V
 MT. Chipman reached Texarkana on train Friday night, and asked a man at the depot for information about changing trains to come tc Pine Bluff. The man told him he could make con- nection. by journeying to switch in the yards, where the train would have to back up, slowing down enough for him to beard it. The stranger vol unteered to show MT. Chipman the way to the train. When they reached a secluded spot in the yards, MT. Chipman was felled by heavy blow on the head. As he struck the ground the stranger forced the neck of bot tie into his mouth, the liquid burning
 him so badly he can scarcely eat yet
 He lost ccnsciousne ss.
 He was not found until about 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon, when po- lice took him 10 rooming house and summoned physicians to attend him. Later he was able to give his name and destination, and a telegram summonsd MT. Dutton to Texarkana MT. Dutton recognized Mir. Chipman and brought him home. MT. Chipman
 was robbed of his money, about $15 or .$20, and his suit case. The high wayman even took off good pair of shoes MT. Chipman~ had been wear ing, and left pair of work shoes in their stead. Except for the burns in
 his mouth, MT. Chipman is all right again. Physicians say the burns were caused by a mixture of chloroform 1 and whiskey.
 MT. Chipman's luck has not been good recently. The storm which
 ravaged the Texas coast last month
 ruined his entire crop of cotton, and
 his farm is now virtually barren, soil so far as this season Is concerned. He
 has decided to sell out his holdings | there and locate in the vicinity oi l Pine Bluff. f

Ultimatum Asks Immediate Cession of Serbian
 Macedonia.
BIG ANGLO FRENCH
 ARMY TO AID SERBIA
ROumania Playing Waiting Same. While Bulgaria Takes Steps to Join Central Empires ard Warns Dp-
 lomats Not to Vse Code.

London, Sept. 2T.-A Berlin mes sage today states it is rumorod there that Car Ferdinand of Bulgaria has served an ultimatum on Serbia, de- handing the immediate cession of Serbian Macedonia, as the price Of Bulgaria's continued neutrality
 Car Ferdinand himself is prepar- ing to take full charge of military operations, although Grown Prince Boris will be nominally head of the army. Two armies already have been completely mobilized.
 Greece also has now huge army under arms. Roumania, however. is making no move toward general call to the colors.
 Roumania Plays Waiting Game.
 That Roumania will continue her attitude of strict neutrality indehi- nitely, or at least until it is fully de- ,termined what the liae-up in the Balkans will be, is indicated in a Independence Roumania of Bucharest today. It. says:
 "The ministers have unanimously agreed that the mobilization of Bull garia and Greece is not of nature to cause a modification of the Rou- manian policy.
 f Consequently, our troops will re- main concentrated on the frontiers. "In view of Bulgarias attitude, it is reported from Berlin that the en- tente representatives are preparing to leave Sofia.''
 Bulgaria Bars Code Messages.
 The Bulgarian government has stopped railroad service between Serbia and Bulgaria, and has forbid den foreign diplomats and consuls to use code in their telegrams. It has issued an order requiring that letters be posted unsealed.
 The Greek mobilization is proceed ing smoothly, and already 100000 men are reported to be under arms. That Greece is fully prepared to full fiil her treaty obligations to Serbia and that an agreement has been reached whereby allied troops will be landed at a Greek port to strike at the Bulgarian flank and eat Con- stantinople, is indicated in dispatches reaching here. That a large Anglo French army is at the disposal of Serbia is practically certain.
 Radiograms from Berlin indicate there is a feeling of certainty in Germany that Bulgaria will join the central empires. Hope of Greece re- maining neutral if Bulgaria attacks Serbia seems to have disappeared but it is hinted that if Greece does attack Bulgaria, large Turkish army from the Tchatalja lines will immediately be given free passage through Bulgaria for an attack on the Greeks.

Great Britain's Treatment of Ampri. can Packers ArOuSeS Washington to Assume More Determined
 Attitude.

Washington, Sept 27.-The reply of the United States to Great Bri; ain S defense by Sir Edward Grey Of her oppression Of American commerce 2 will be sent forward irrespective of the settlement of the differences between this government and Ger many. This was stated today.
 The note has been put in form for transportation, and probably will be called on the day Secretary of State Lansing returns 10 Washington.
 The document is a re-draft of sev- eral documents b;aring on different parts of the general subject. Officials explained today that it was net be- cause there was a prospect of early settlement with Germany that the note would be sent soon, but because the recent acts of Great Britain in the packers cases have shown that tempcrizing on individual cases was futile.
 This new note will be a vigorous protest, with certain strong state m nts that the continuation of her course by Great Britain could only be regarded in an unfriendly light.

23,OOO GERMANS
 MADE PRISONERS
Berlin Reports the French Losses at 40,0O0 Dead, and Claims Capture of 1000 in Bloodiest Battle of War, ngaging
 6,000,000.

London, Sept. 27-The allies, launching smashing attacks from their ncWly-won positions, are keep ing up their great offensive from the sea to the Vosges mountains. Today, however, no such spectacular success as had marked the fighting of the last two days was reported.
 Berlin claims that by violent coun- ter attacks the French and British have been checked on ,the German second line. Tremendous losses are reported to have been suffered Ly both sides.
 The allies have captured more than 70 field pieces and heavy can non of which g were taken by the British. More than 23,O00 Germans have been taken prisoners. Berlin reports the capture of 1000 prisoners.
 Fearful Is Carnage.
 On the entire front the fighting has taken on the aspect of furious attacks and counter attacks in which the carnage has been fearful, and which may continue for weeks before definite decision is reached. The fighting is the bloodiest of the war, with 2,000,000 strongly en- trenched Germans battling against French and British armies estimated to number 4,000,000.
 The Germans are reported to be rushing strong endorsements to the front, and an Amsterdam dispatch
 says that Emperor William himself is rushing to LuXemburg to urge on his armies.
 The allies are attacking on the en- tire front on which they gained sucn striking successes on Saturday and Sunday. In Champagne, the fighting is continuous and the losses on both sides unprecedented. Fully German army corps has been wiped out, cor respondents report, while the claim is made in Berlin that the French
 losses approximate 10000. Of this fighting, the French night O1flclal statement says:
 "The battle continues without re- spite. Our troops are now holding a light front before the German second line of defense, the landmarks or tnis front being hill No. 1S5, west of the Navarrin farm, the Souain knoll. the tree on hill No. 196 and the village and knoll of Tahure."
 Gains of Allies. On this front, the French are With in two and half miles of the Ger
 man supply railroad and at points nearer. A bombardment of this lm-
 portant line is being kept up contln-
 uouslv. hampering the Teuton move
 ments of troops and ammunition. The allies successes so far may
 be summed up as follows: First, on the road from Soualn to Sommopy an advance of from one 10 one and a half miles has been galneu, the French reaching as far as Cabans. This brings the Frencn within two and half miles of one or the most important supply railroads of the Germans.
 Second. on the Souain-Tahure road. the French have penetrated Deyona La Baraque. where they are very near one of the chief German Hnes of communications. . Ihird north of BeausseJouf tne French have won one and a hali miles of terrain from the Germans
 and captured, between Beausse9ouf lsand Maizon de Champagne, larn, dominating Riponte and the vaiiey o' the DOrmoise.
