LONDON, Oct 1i.-That the Austro-
German forces are pushing steadily on
into Serbia from Belgrade is indicated
by all accounts
It is hoped here that the Serbian
claims Of victories along the Drina
river are true though Germany mas
contradicted them.
The Austro-Germans are now In full
possession of Belgrade and the heights
surrounding the city, and have begun
an advance eastward toward the
mountains which the Serbians last
year so stubbornly defended against
the Austrians.
For some time TO come the invaders,
il is expected, will have to fight only
the rear guards, whose duty IL is to
delay their progress, for the Serbians

on previous occasions--fall back until

BUGGY Is
W RECKED
BY AUTO

An accident that might easily have
resulted seriously, and perhaps fatally,
occurred shortly after 10 o'clock Sat
urday evening when an aAtombile,
running without lights, and driven by
man supposed to be stranger in
Chickasha. struck and badly wrecked
a buggy on South sixteenth street, be-
tween Texas and Washington avenues.
The buggy was occupied by Misses
Ruby Langston and Leona Jones and
Nora Delasire. the latter an aunt of
Miss Jones.
The buggy was overturned, the oc-
cupants thrown to the street, but the
horse was uninjured The buggy was
literally demolished. Misses Jones
and Langseon we're so fortunate as to
escape injury, but Miss Delasire was
painfully. but fortunately not seriously
injured. The ladies we're removed to
their home at 142S South Sixteenth
street.
The driver of the auto stopped his
car after the collision and is said to
have been most profuse in his apol-
ogies. He is alleged to have stated
that he was running without lights,
that his lights we're out of order. and
that he had intended having them
fixed upon his arrival at garage.

The Russian bear, though intending
TO abandon the bone Of Warsaw. yet
growls so horribly over it and is so
formidable and deliberate in defeat
that the Germans will not be able to

that they are puzzled by the strategy
Of Grand Duke Nicholas. The Ger
mans past experiences with him have
taught the Teuton's to be wary. The
evacuation Of Warsaw has been going
on for several weeks. The Germans
must have known it. Yet the fighting
continues. The fierce character of the
fighting. especially 10 the north OF
Warsaw, is very surprising. But more
surprising is the fact that the Ger.
mans. against greatly reduced Russian
forces, have made Roadway no faster.
This may indicate las one correspond.
