BRYAN MAY MEET POPE

Pontiff in Interest of Peace.

Rome. Sept. 2-Reports reaching
here from Germany say that the Ger
man press is discussing Bryan's forth
coming trip to Europe, and hint Is
given that it is possible that the form
err American Secretary of State may
cooperate with the efforts of the
Pope TO hasten peace.
1t is reported from Vatican source
that if Bryan solicits all audience the
Pope will not hesitate to receive the
former American statesman, provided
that assurances are given that the
audience will be confidential.
However. the Pope. although ardent
" wishing and striving for peace. Is
determined to end the war without
seeking the fafS@ of any groups of
belligerents to the deteriment of 9TH
ers. Hence he is unlikely to accept
the cooperation of so-called peace
missionaries unless he is convinced
that their efforts are spontaneous and
not masked intrigues.

SALE OF OLD BUILDING
Alexandria Coffee Company Acquires
House Adjoining its Plant

Claude R. Yates. head of the Alex
andria Coffee Company, whose place
of business is on the north side OF
Prince street, near falr1aN' mas
purchased of H. Kinks Sons the
three story brick house adjoining on
the east. The building will be usec
by Mr.. Yates as an auxiliary ware
house, The acquisition of this building
has been rendered necessary by the
steady growth of the business of the
company.
The building which has been pur-
chased is one of the oldest IN the
city. Three quarters of a century
or more ago John Beckley, a pros
porous colored resident of this city,
conducted a toy store in this build
ing. Shortly before the civil war
George Siggers, an English book,
binder. occupied it. He also was en-
gagged in the book and periodical
business. During the four years war
it was used for various purposes,
generally of a commercial nature.
After the close of the conflict it was
sometimes used as a public house
and at others as a tenement. 1t has,
often changed owners.

were fired at DR.. Mohr and herself.
Both were wounded in the head and

four of five shots were fred by some

London Says Propaganda is
l.. in Progress in Certain
Channels
ALLIES ARE AVERSE
Not Willing to Consider Cessation Of
Hostilit.es When Teuton Success is
at Zenith,

London. Sept. 2 There are in
creasing indications that the German
government in one way and another
is attempting to feel out the peace sit
uation and to let the people of the
various nations with which she is
at war know that peace at this time,
or in the very near future, Will be ac-
ceptable to Germany.
The propaganda is being carried cii
through numerous channels and has ut
this time reached such 4 wide scope
in it's cumulative effect that there re
mains no doubt in the minds of diplo-
mats here that the German govern
ment is seeking to educate the minds
of foreign people to the idea of an
early peace.
1t is the German view, apparently,
that this is the time to make peace
because the German military Success
es are at their zenith. tx Gently word
has come from Berlin that the gov
ernment does not believe that new VIC
tories, won as they must be at in
creasing cost. will be worth - effort
1t seems TO be felt in official Berilh
furthermore that at no other time will
the goveram,r, be able to DO so welt
satisfy the people by making peace.
1t is recalled that when the war began
the government promised indirectI.
that it would be over in six month.
Somewhat "a:tive Under the mesno.s
of this promise the people of Ger
many are beginning to wonder why
the government i ..s not make peace
proposals.
Reports are heing sent out fr>m
Germany that France is facing inter:
nal disorders and that England is

Likely to Force Russians to
Evacuate Last Points
in Galicia
GERMAN MOVES SLOW
Muscoyites Hold Own on Both Ends
of Line. But are Reported to be
Giving Away in Centre.

London, Sept. 2--The minor fort
ress of Lutsk which, with those oil
Dubno and Rovno, forms Il fortified
triangle on Russian territory just
north of the Galician frontier has
been captured by the Austrians, it is
officially reported from Vienna.
1t is in this direction that the Aus
tro-German offensive has been the
most aggressive during the past few
days, the object being to separate
the Russian army which has been re
treating through the Pripet marshes
from that operating in Galicia ano
which yesterday inflicted, so the Rus
slams claim, rather severe defeat
on the invaders.
The capture Of Lutsk, however. IS
likely to compel the Russians, deS
pitc their victory, to cvacuate that
part of Galicia still held by them +;
otherwise their flank there would be
seriously threatened.
Along the rest of the front. except
in the centre, where the Austro-Ger-
mans continue to make slow adj
vance. the Russians appear 10 he
holding their own.
Thus far the Russians have pre-
vented the Germans from crossing
the Doina at f'riedrichsradt, where {"
battle has been in progress for sevc-
raj days; they have arrested the Ger
man offensive between that point and
the Gulf Of Riga, and are still hold
ing their ground between Kovno and
Wilma and before Grodno, although
the Germans have approached the
outer position of Grodno fortress.
In the opinion of military writers
here the Russians now stand Il good
chance of winning the race for time.
Within few weeks the autumn rain
will begin, and. it is pointed out, un-
less they can succeed IN gaining a
decisive result before that time. tho
Austro- Germans can hardly hope t,
smash the Russian armies before, un-
der cover of the long winter, they are
reformed and re-equippcd. y pre-
sent the AustroG Germans are strain
ing every nerve to win this decision
but they have been greatly delayed
by the intensity OF the Russian coun-
tcr-attacks and the stubborness with
which the Russian troops hold the
positions protecting their retreat
ing comrades.
The Russian losses, of cour;e, have
been enormous. According to Berlin
the Russians have lost 10000 IL
prisoners since May =, the date or
which the drive began in Western
Galicia. while during August alone
the captures included more than d
quarter of million men and 300
cannon.
The Austro-German losses, too
have been heavy in killed and wound
ed. while the strain on the troops has
! been terrific. They still have, accord
ing to Pctrograd estimates, about p.
600 900 men on the eastern front
800. 900 being in the Riga region
more than 100000 in the centre anC
I from 100000 to 100000 in Galicia.
