Petrograd, Aug. 14.-The new po-
sitions occupied by the Germans and
Austrians we're outlined ON good ou-
thority today. The line, starting
from the vicinity Of ossowetz, near
the Prussian border opposite the
Mazurian lakes region, curves to the
south and east. running through
SokolOw, Siedlce, Lukow, ostrow and
WadoTa.
The concentration of Austro-Gkr-
man forces m the direction Of the for
tress of Brest-Litovsk, is proceeding
along three roads from Maxim, from,
Lukow and from Vladova, The m
vaders are still between 40 and so
miles from Brest-Lftovsk and are
meeting with strong opposition.
Russian military obervers expect
that the original plan of retirement
from the Vistula line viii be accom-
pished soon and that Brest- Litovsk
viii assume It function as one end of
the Russian line. In Pretrograd, the
opinion is expressed that the advance
will be checked on this line.
THE NAVAL ACTION.
Details of the recent naval action
at the entrance to the Gulf of Riga
show that the Germans, with nine
ships Of the line and twelve cruisers
drew UP In battle formation. A
feet of trawiers, cleared away mines

that the Germans opener fire with
one-ffth Of their strength. The
trawlers were forced to withdraw
leaving two lines Of minesstin In po.
sition. Meanwhile Russian hydro.
aeroplanes bombarded the trawierI
trawiers and warships.
The trawlers made two attempts
subsequently TO advance, under pro
lection Of the warships, but wer,
diven off. Two Of the German war
ships damaged were torpedoboats, thu
other cruiser. They struck mine,
and apparently were injured severe
ly.

CRISIS is NEAR IN
THE BALKAN STATES
e. ASSOCIATED PREss.

London, Aug. 14.-A Rome dispatch
says that responding to the pope's re-
cent peace appeal Germany and Aus
tria have declared their willingness
to enter peace negotiations, provided
the first overtures came from their
enemies.
Affairs IN the Balkans are APP
proaehiag 4 crisis. While diplomatic.
negotiations continue in an effort to
induce the states that still are neu-
tral to join one side or the other, the
Teutonic powers have massed troops
on the Balkan frontiers, supposedly to
force their way through to Turkey,
which is said to be badly in need of
shells. This concentration, which has
been followed by artillery attacks on
the Serbian positions, is equally q
menace to Rouman1a, which again
has refused to permit shells to pass
through her territory to Turkey. The
Roumanian army already is partially
modified and four new divisions of
reserves have been called out.
Whether Greece and Serbia agree
to cede Macedonia to Bulgaria in or
der for her to join the allies prob
ably will be known when the Greek
and Serbian parliaments meet next
week. Serbia shows an inclination to
yield, but Greece thus far has firmly
refused. The Greek attitude may
change when former Premier Veni-
zelos again comes into power with
the reassembling of Greek parlia-
ment, but Berlin dispatch says King
Constantine is reported to have Of
fered him the premiership upon con-
dition that he maintain strict neu-
trality. Should Bulgaria attack Ser
bia, however, Greece is bound by
treaty to aid Serbia.
ALLIES ARE CONFIDENT.
With an apparent Improvement OF
the Russian situation on the eastern
'front.' there are renewed expressions
Of confidence from the allied coun-
tries. The Russians claim they are
driving the Germans back from Riga
and west of Dvinsk, and still are
keeping them away from Kovno. AL,
though me Teutons continue to ad.
vance IN south and southwest, they
do not mention the capture of guns
or ammunition, indicating the posi-
tons they are now occupying were
evacuated before their arrival.
Won Mackensen has resumed thu
advance between Vieprz .and Bus
rivers, after a delay from Russian
counter attacks.
The only important news in tn,
west Is the German claim of anothe
local success IN Argonne. The FrencI

VARIED BILL At
EMPIRE TO SUIT
TASTES OF ALL

Melodramatic romance Is conspicu-
.ously displayed in the presentation of
a great railroad story, The Right of
Way" shown in two parts, in which
prominent stars in the world of
the movies are features. THE
Right of Way" is a headliner at
the Empire theater today. There is
not dull moment in the picture.
Choice bits of woodland, jagged cliffs,
cascading rivers, make delightful
sequence of scenes for the enactment
of a tragedy The picture contains a
number of strong scenes very well
acted by Miss HandSworth, Tom Tenn
pest and Frank DeMaine, who take
leading roles. ..
HWhen the Men Left Town" is a
clever farce-comedy in which the hui
NOR Is forceful and spontaneous. The
comedy deals with a peculiar situa-
ton found In certain eastern city
when the women entered into a con.
spiracy to drive the men from the
municipality. They took over the
reins of government. - The picture
shows struggle which existed for
several days until the suffragettes
capitulated and the masculine popu-
lation was again permitted to take up
its former occupations.
The Empire bill will close with a
remarkable picture, absorbing in its
interest and tremendous in the lesson
1t teaches, entitled -Four One Hun
1rpd Dollar RiIlS'' II is q fitting frih
ute to the genius of an Armstrong.
