Calls Reserves to CoIors.

Paris, Sept. 1s.-vienna newspapers
received here state that enormous re-
endorsements for the allies are arriv:
ing at the DardanetIes. It is asserted
that $4,000 British, Australian and
French troops have arrived at the ISL

allied troops now on the Galtipoli
peninsula is estimated at $4,000,
which is regarded as sufficient to car
ry the positions.
The papers also state that France
is preparing 100000 further reserves
to make good the wastage, 10000 of
whom are now on the way.
London, Sept 18.-Stern battles arc
being fought all along the eastern
front from Riga to the Roumanian
border, and while the Germans con-
tinue to advance slowly in the north
and center, the Russians in the south
are repeating their successes against
the Austro- German armies, which are
now being. driven back across the
River Stripa in Galicia and have been
forced to retire westward, north of
the Galician frontier. Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg, who began his often
sive against the Vilna-Dvinsk railway
a week ago, has not yet established
himself on the line. His cavalry
which did reach it has been driven
back. Nevertheless, he has driven
the Russians across the Dvina River,
north of Dvinsk, placing that city in a
rather dangerous position, and also
has made progress north of Wilma.
Germans Capture Pinsk.
Field Marshal Won Mackenzen has
passed his forces through the Pripet
marshes and is now i'm possession of
Plnsk. From this point southwark the
Russians are advancing and have re-
occupied number of villages.
A good deal of Importance is attach
ed to the decision of Russia, to call
to the colors the reserves of the terri

fixed at IS years this fresh call would
mean the possible addition of 8,O00,-

In the Dardanelles the British losses
totalled 1850 up to Aug. 21. The
British submarine E-7 operating in
those waters, which the Turks claim to
have sunk, is admitted by the British
admiralty to have been missing since
Sept. 4. The EFT did a great deal of
damage to Turkish shipping in the Sea
OF Marmora, and after blocking the
railway line near Kara Burnu, by bonn
harding it from the sea, shelled troop
train and blew up three ammunition
cars attached to it.

No Decision Reached With Respect tt
Recognition Of Any Government

Washington, Sept. 1S.-Informal in

European governments as to the
Washington administrations next step
IN the Mexican situation.
Ambassador Jusserand of France
had long talk with Secretary Lam

charge d'affaires, discussed the stu
alton with state department officials
and notified them that orders had
gone forth to British consuls to con-
suit with American consuls on the ad-
visibility of withdrawing from North

From high official quarters it was
learned that no decision has been
reached with respect to the recogni-
ton of any government in Mexico, but
the subject will be fully considered at
the Pan-American conference in New
York.
Carranza's Invitation Refused.
1t is understood that on account of
a press of international affairs, Gen
eral CarranZa's invitation to the con-
ferees to meet him at some point on
the border may not be accepted, but
the suggestion of discussing with his
representatives the international ques.
lions involved in the situation is
likely to be met by an invitation to
Carranza to send delegates here in.

It is said to be the intention of the
Pan-American conferees to give an
audience also to representatives of
other Mexican factions who already
are en- route to Washington so that
before a final decision is reached the
entire situation with respect to rec.
ognition may be carefully studied
from all viewpoints.

Washington, Sept. 16.-Prospects for
versies between the United States and
Germany depend entirely on the atti-
tude which the Berlin foreign office
will take toward the recommendations
made by Count Won Bernstorff, the
German ambassador, following his con-
ference with Secretary Lansing.
Details of the conference became
known, throwing light on the critical
noint that had been reached in the re-
lations between the two countries. The
Washington government was almost
ready to sever diplomatic relations,
but decided to delay taking any step
until Germany could be furnished the
evidence in it's possession on the Ara
bic case
Evidence Is Conclusive.
The evidence which has been sub
mitted by the United States is regard
ed here as proving conclusively that
unless she submerged to launch the
torpedo against the Arabic, the Ger
man submarine was concealed behind
the sinking British steamer Dunsley
and could not have been seen by the
captain of the Arabic. Furthermore, it
is shown that the Arabic was struck
in such way that the submarine must
have been at right angles from her
when the torpedo was fired, instead OF
in a position to make ramming by the
liner possibility.
Should Germany fail to satisfy the
American demand for disavowal, indi,
cations were that the Washington gov
crnment would follow it's original pur-
pose to sever diplomatic relations.

New York, Sept. 1S.-The bargaining
stage has been reached in the negotia-
lions between the AngloFrench mis-
sion and leading American bankers
looking to the establishment of a huge
credit in this country for the Allies.
The delegation, headed by Baron Read
inv lord chief justice of England, came
here with the idea of borrowing bill
lion dollars. They have been told that
they could get half that amount.
No formal proposal has yet been
made by either side. For that reason
it cannot be said finally that the loan
will not total more than $500,000,000.
But the American bankers have taken
the stand that it is better to be sure of
selling $780, 100000 of bonds. or notes,
than to run the risk Of failure in trying
to distribute twice that amount
Bankers Hold Whip Hand.
While the loan is intended to pro-
tect Americas export trade by correct
ing the alterations of the exchange
market, it was said in financial circles
that American bankers are we'll aware
notwithstanding all that has been
said to the contrary-that they hold
the whip hand.
The United States has been threat.
ened with the loss of a great part of
its export business in foodstuffs 1t
has been suggested that unless the Al.
lies are provided with the loan they
require, in the amount they seek, the
huge SURPRISES of grain, in particular
that the country will have as the re.
suit of bumper agricultural year, will
have to rot in the fields.
Allies Want to Buy Here.
The argument has been that Great
Britain and France would turn to Can
ada and the Argentine for wheat. But
banker pointed out, this argument
has more of sentimental than a prac
teal value. The Allies want to buy
their foodstuffs here because here they
can buy them on credit. To pay fol
them they would have to pay gold OF
they would have to collect from private
owners in Great Britain and France
American securities that could be sole
here to provide cash. They are reluc
tant to part with much more gold-as
such gold as they can spare must be
employed in the purchase of munitions
To collect American securities from
their private owners in sufficient guam
titles to turn exchange in their favor
would be task of almost insuperable
difficulty. So purchases on credit is al
that remains.
Loan May Exceed $50o,00o,000.
In the financial district the assump
ton is that the proposal to provide
half a billion dollars in credit here
instead of the billion asked, is sub
ject to alterations; that it is the ma
ture of a "feeler'' and that in the en(
the sum granted will be somewhere
between the larger and the smalle
figures, say $600,0O0,0O0 or $3.50, 900,
900.
