WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
+ COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, Sept. 14.-Special: The
TANKS of the Russian line continue to
hold well, but the Teutonic advance
in the center continues, although the
progress made is slower than in re-
cent weeks.
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg's
forces. operating eastward from
Grodno, have captured Skidel after a
battle, the outcome of which the
Germans admit was sometimes in
doubt, so strong was the Russian re-
sistance.
Furthermore, there has been a
hard battle near Vilkomir, and an
other southeast of Friedrichstadt,
where the struggle for the Riga
Dvinsk line is being waged. Neither
the Germans nor the Russians claim
any decisive result in these engage
ments.
Teutonic forces are fighting for
Koshow, south of Slonim, and the
Austrians have taken the village of
Alba, to the west of Koshow. Little
activity is reported to the southwest,
in the territory where Field Marshal
Won MackenZen's armies are operat-
ing. but i'm the Galician district the
Russians are continuing their agrees
sive course.
The Berlin reports do not concede
Russian victories there, but mention
fierce counter attacks" by the Mus
covite forces, who, ii is claimed, have
been repulsed with heavy losses to
the attacking troops. The current
Austrian official report admits the
retreat OF the Austrian troops south
of Tarnopol, from the line of the
Sereth river to the heights east of
the Stripa before superior forces. :"
The two rivers are approximately two
miles apart.
ON the western front, after recent
heavy fighting in the Argonne and
the Vosges, and in which large bodies
OF infantry were employed, artillery
fire has been resumed. The only
mention of infantry operations con-
tanned in the current statements Is
the claim of Berlin that the trenches
on Hartmann-Weilerkopf, in Alsace,
captured on September 8, have been
retained, despite two attacks by the
French. The French are consider
ing recruiting in the colonies in
China and equatorial Africa, and a
bill has been prepared for such a
step. which, If taken. would result in
adding 100000 men to the forces in
the field by next spring, IL is esti-
mated.
Because of further concentration
of belligerent troops near the Swiss
boundaries the Swiss government,
according to advices from Sasl, is
considering the a%dvisability of call
ing out additional troops to safe
guard the northwestern frontier"
The northwestern frontier of Swift
zerland runs from the southwestern
tip of the German border along the
French boundary line.
The White Star line officials in
Liverpool issued a statement reiter-
ating hat the steamer Arabic made
no attempt to ram the German sub
marine that sank her, and declaring
hat a change of course such as Is
frequently necessary in the channel
could not possibly be taken by the
Germans as indicating an intention
to ram. The Arabic master did not
see the submarine and the liner did
not try to escape. the statement as
serts. the only move made by the
vessels officers being to put the helm
