NORWAY LOSES Al SHIPS.
Casualties Caused by Torpedoes and
Mines.

Forty-one ships flying the Norwegian
flag have been lost since the beginning
Of war in Europe, and seventy-six
sailors have persisted. according to a
report received at the State Depart
ment today from the American minister
at Christiania. Thirteen ships were de-
stroyed by mines, twenty-four were
sunk by torpedoes. three disappeared
in the war zone and one was crushed
by a .German warship. the report stated
Another ship was taken as a prize to
Hamburg.
The extensive losses have impelled
the Norwegian war risk Insurance bu-
reau to increase premiums and adopt
additional restrictions. The bureau, to
date, the report stated. had sustained
losses of $2.seo.ooO, while premiums
collected amounted to only s1,se0,ooo.
Recent losses had been almost en-
tirely due to torpedoes, the report
stated, and suggested that shortage of
explosives had resulted in more re-
stricted use Of explosive and unsatis-
factory mines.

Grand Duke Nicholas
Lauded and Condemned
by Press of Germany

BERLIN, September Q, via London
The removal of Grand Duke Nicholas
from the position of command rim
chief of the Russian armies is the text
of long articles in Berlin newspapers
this morning The Tage6latt says the
grand duke was removed because, not
withstanding his undeniabie gifts in
the strategy of retreating. he bears the
responsibility for the Russian catas-
trophe In Poland and Galicia. his in
fuence being shattered in consequence.
A view more frequently expressed is
that the retirement of the grand duke
was dictated by political reasons. and
aimed particularly at the party repre-
scented by the present Russian govern
ment, which had grown too strong.
Sees Loss to the Army.
The Lokal Anzeige- says the dis
placement of the grand duke removes
the government party's strongest sup
porter and means loss to the army,
which saw in him the appointed leader.
This paper pays a frank and generous
tribute to the former commander-in-
chief as a brave and honora BILE enemy,
and an able leader.
The Morgen Post. on the other hand.
terms Grand Duke Nicholas "a brutal
and bloody man. without leadership
talent. and the destroyer OF his
army, his land and his people 1t
adds that the moment demands "a
leader of titanic strength snd asserts
that this complete cipher as d Ieadel.
IF Russian armies. has teen dis
credited by his defeats.
Predicts Russian Breakdown.
The Vossische Zeitung finds in En-
peror Nicholas move final proof of
the approaching breakdown of the
army and state" 1t asserts that the
government. in view OF repeated de-
feats. saw itself compelled to summon
new leaders for the army. and the DO
ltical position of the grand duke made
the decision of the emperor necessary.
The Boersen Zeitung views the
change as having been directed against
certain coteries in the inner political
life Of Russia and believes IL NAV he
calculated also TO impress the other
members of the quadruple entente with
the feeling that Russia is doing every
thing possible to ward off impending
events

Victory Held Fitting
Celebration of Cars
Taking Up Command

PETROGRAD, September 9. via Lon
don, BIS p.m.-The brilliant victory
won by the Russian army near Tarn-
opol is regarded here in the nature of
fitting celebrat ton of the assumption of
chief command of the Russian armies
by Emperor Nicholas, and as an omen
of success to come. AS a strictly mill
tary event great Importance is attach
ed to the victory by military circles,
which point out that the Germans had
collected a force of Prussian guards
and Austrian brigades, strengthened
by both light and heavy artillery, on
twenty-mile front for the undoubted
purpose of breaking through into the
rich grain provinces of southwestern
Russia. With inferior forces. the Rus
slams were able to defeat the plan, de-
spite the deliberate preparations that
had been made to execute 1t. INJECTING
severe losses and SCATTERING" it is
Claimed, an entire army corps.
Held by Enemy Artillery.
The fact that the Russians could not
follow up the victory at Tarnopol was
due entirely To the superiority of the
Teutonic artillery, it is declared. There
is no lack of war stores, according to
war Office officials. and the supply of
shrapnel is sufficient, but the army was
unable to take the offensive against
the heavy guns of the Germans.
The check administered at Tarnopol
is expected to have an important bear
ing on operat lions against Russian po-
sitions along the CORN. Ikva and Stu
bel rivers to the northeast. which oper-
atoms are depending upon support
from German advance at Tarnopol.
The Austro-German forces are oper-
ating aggressively against these posi-
tions, battles developing around Dubno.
Rovno and Kremenetz.
The situation in the north has
shown little change for the past ten
days From the statements of cap
tured German officers it appears that
the Germans do not hope to make
marked progress unless Riga is cap
tured, as we'll as the principal juno
lions on the Vilna-Grodno railroad.

the total of casualties from Zeppelin
raids to 1872 killed and 349 injured. On
the previous night thirteen persons

Get First Glimpse Of War.
The raid of Zeppelins last night is
described by the Pail Mall Gazette as
'.Londoners' first glimpse of the war at
close quarters.
The Evening Standard speaks of the
GOODNESS shown everywhere, but warns
the public against the ''noticeably
widespread and dangerous disposition
to regard the affair rs species of
spectacle"
1t suggests that in addition to the
Zeppelin. which within limits lis ter
rible instrument of war there is also
danger from anti-aircraft guns. There
fore, the public, it says, would be well
advised to take aerial visitors more Sc
riously than it did last night.

proa ched the heart of the city more
closely than on previous occasions.

best be preserved by the presence of
another amba The exact pro-
cedure, however, has not been decided
on.
Those closest to the President de-
scribed his attitude as being very re-
luctant to take initial action and hop
ing that the situation would be relieved
by the action of the ambassador him
self or his government.
1t has been reported that the ambas-
sador contemplated taking a vacation
to attend to personal business at home.
That might satisfy the needs of di-
plomacy. A. Rustem Bey, the ambas-
sador from Turkey. took leave of alb
sence some time ago. after making
plomatic decorum and offended the
President.
Mr.. Lansing Silent.
Secretary Lansing today continued
his absolute silence to all questions re-
garding the Dumba case. He said plain
ly he did not care to discuss the case.
He was asked if he would comment
on the published supposition that this
government had communicated with
the Austrian government asking for a
confirmation of the declaration that DR..
Dumba was acting under instructions
from that government. Mr.. Lansing S
reply indicated that further question
ing would be just as useless as the
previous attempts to get any red light
on the situation from him.
DR.. Dumba left this-eity last night
for his summer place at Lenox, Mass.
He will there await the news as to
whether his explanation of his actions
in endeavoring to withdraw Austro-
Hungarian leborers from American
munition plants is to be accepted by
this government The diplomatic sit
uation arising after this explanation
is far more serious than before the
ambassadors visit to the State Depart
ment. 1t is regarded as much more
serious than mere case OF propriety
on the part of an individual; and this
leads many officials to believe that this
government has taken up the question
with the Austrian government.
Proposed Labor Exchange.
Dr. Dumbas call at the Department
of Labor yesterday was in reference
to a scheme for establishing a labor
exchange to help Austro-H ungarians
who might leave their work in arms
and munitions plants. If the govern
ment lent any aid to this proposition.
it would be a great surprise to many
officials.
In diplomatic circles it is believed
that the amba ssador is going on with
these labor exchange plans, no matter
what the Department of Labor says or
does about it, AT the Austro- Hungarian
embassy it has been learned that In
structions from Vienna have reached
here authorizing Il proclamation to
Austro- Hungarian subjects to obey the
decree of thei: government against
aiding in the manufacture of. arms and
munitions for their enemies.
A similar proclamation was Issued by
Germany some time ago, but it attract
ed little comment at the time. 1t is
understood that Germans employed in
munition plants quietly sought other
work
