RUSSIAN RETREAT
 IS MASTERPIECE
 IN WAR STRATEGY
GENEVA, Switzerland, Sept. q

GENEVA, Switzerland, Sept. IT,
 The Lausanne Gazette publishes a letter from an officer of high rank in the Austrian army. who is fight ing on the eastern front against Rus sia in which the officer says:
 "The Russian retreat is the master piece in the strategy of the present war. The terrifying, systematic. de- yastation recalls the retreat of 1872, when the Russians retreating before Napoleon withdrew over parts of the same ground over which they are now moving. Despite the fact that the Russian armies have been alternat- ing between fighting and retreating for months. they are still intact, and is practically out of danger.
 Behind the retiring armies is a yer itable sea of flames, extending for hundreds of miles between the north and the south wings caused by burn ing buildings and crops.
 "Gen. MiscrenSo. who has prevent ed the Germans and Austrians from striking effectively at the retreating hordes, is following by well organ ized attachments of Cossaks whose duty it is to burn everything that is left behind the army They accom- plish their task implicably"

BALFOUR SAYS MANY SUBMARINES
 HAVE BEEN SUNK

LONDON, Sept. First Lord Of the Admiralty Sir Arthur J. Balfour said yesterday that Germany has mod flied her submarine policy on account of its failure to produce the results expected. He said that this is direct ly due to the great number of the submarines which have been caught and sunk by the British navy in near by waters.
 It was stated that more than 90 of them have been destroyed. and many Of them have been captured in nets. Others have been sunk by the British fast steaming scout ships that have been patrolling the waters off the coasts of Great Britain and Ireland.
 Dispatches from Amsterdam re- peat the statement that the failure of the submarine campaign is likely to result in the resignation of Admiral von Tirpitz, commander of the Ger man navy.

 ON EAST FRONT

LONDON, Sept. IT. Fighting on both wings of the eastern front pro- ceeds with greater vigor than the fighting in the center where the in- vaders are evidently having difficult ties in the tracldess swamps.

WASHINGTON IS
 GREATLY SURPRISED

WASHINGTON. Sept. IT. Official Washington received the news of the torpedoing of the Hesperian with un- concealed surprise. It is learned that high officials of the government re- garded it as inconceivable that. after the assurances given by Germany only last week. that a German submarine commander had. without warning, launched torpedo at a peaceful pas senger vessel The circumstances that the vessel was bound from Great Britain and not to that port. like was the case of the Arabic, and therefore could be neither laden with war mu- nitions nor men for the army. made the case more mystifying.
 Wilson and Lansing Silent
 No statement could be secured yes- terday from either the White House or the State Department concerning the torpedoing of the Hesperian. It was said that both President Wood row Wilson and Secretary of State Robert Lansing were waiting for more coherent reports of the disaster be- fore they would decide upon what to do or say
 "No Action Necessary"
 President Wilson will take no &C., tion relative to the sinking of the Hesperian, 1t was indicated today. High officials declared the administra- tion sees no present reason to ques- tion Germany's good faith. or to be- lieve that she has violated her prom ise to refrain from attacking liners without first warning them.
