BERLIN, Sept. 22.-(Via London,
1926 p. mD AS far as can be
learned in authoritative quarters here
no word has been received in Berlin
of a mobilization by either Greece o"
Rumania, nor are there any indica-
tious that Bulgarias action wilt
necessarily lead to a general outbreak
in the Balkans
The belief Is expressed In well in
formed quarters that Rumania at
least Will remain quiet and the posi-
hility of Greece, Rumania and Bul-
Earia reaching an agreement is en-
tertained
A dispatch to the Zeitung Am Nit
tag from Vienna giving Information
from bulgarian sources, tends TO con-
firm this 1t says the situation in the
Balkans is clearing satisfactorily and
that Bulgaria's attitude is not with
out effect on the other Balkan states.
The dispatch adds that steps toward
general rapproChmcnt between the
Balkan states is under way and with
good prospects Of success.
Bulletin Caused Excitement.
The first bulletin announcing Bull
garia's mobilization reached London
by way of New York II was quickly
followed by a stream Of kilograms
from the European capitals TO the ef-
feet that mobilization, partial or gen.
eral, had been ordered at Sofia that
the Bulgar cavalry had taken the field
and that Bulgars Of fighting age were
hurrying home.
subsequently came the news of eN-
citement at Athens ana Of the confer
ence Of the king with political lead.
crs But from Sofia itself the British
press received no details
There is general activity Of the
AustrO- German forces along the Ser
bian frontier. A semi-official dispatch
from Nish repudiatcs reports that Ser
hia has been asked in effect 10 remain
quicscent while the Austro-G Germans
conduct their campaign southwark.
Russians Obscure.
The developments In Bulgaria
threw into comparative obsCurty the
continued Russian retreat from wilma.
but with the exception of the north
eru tip Of the Polish front where the
Russians are on the offensive near
Friedrchstadt, the Germans claim
progress through mid Poland as far
south as Ostrow which they have
completed. The greatest number Of
prisoners taken at any point, how
ever did not exceed two thousand,
which would seem 10 indicate that
the attempt 10 complete the coils
around the rctreating Russians has
proved unsuccessful.

Senator Theodore T.. Burton Of Ohio,
principal speaker at the annual ban
uuet of the Investment Bankers AS
sociation of America here tonight
Senator Burton spoke upon The
effect Of the present conflict upon the
rates of interest and the business of
the investment banker In sum
marizing, Senator Burton said the
following results may be expected
from the present war:
AN enormous decrease in capital
available for Investment, temporary
shrinkage in the aggregate volume OF
commercial and Industrial activities
expenditures for rehabilitation and
reconstruction will have preference
over those for the development Of
new enterprises.
Higher Interest Rates.
Higher rates Of interest a great
er degree Of discrimination on the
part Of the investing public and 1t
wider disparity in the rates of inter
est among the various categories Of
investments.
Interest on high grade bonds prob
ably will decline.
Certain classes of domestic en-
terprises. including the building Of
electric railways between cities and
probably the building of steam rail-
roads will experience a material de-
cline"
In conclusion Senator Burton said
"In the wider field in which the
people Of the United States must CON
duct their operations, the investment
bankers must always have abiding
consciousness of the new duties i'm
posed upon the citizens of greater
America as the leaders in the worlds

TEUTONIC ALLIES
 TAKE PRzEMYSL
GACIcI9l STRONGHOLD GIVES IN AFTER SIEGE OF ONLY A
 FEW DAYS.

London.-With the capture Of Przemysl, accomplished the Austro. German armies achieved tie main ob- ject of the great thrust they com. menced against the Russians in West ern Galicia a month ago.
 They have yet to drive the Rus sians farther back and esta blish them selves in easily defended positions which will enable them to detach forces for operations against Italy and the allies in the west.
 Whether or not they accomplish this. the Teutonic allies have won a great victory and with a suddenness which oyershadows all past operations of the war. It Was only f6 weeks ago that Przemysl fell to the Rus sians after a six months investment. which was interrupted for a short time in November by an Austrian ad- vance
 With the surrender of the fortress. there fell into the Russian hands, ac corG.ng to official reports. 100000 Aus trians and 500 guns and an immense amount of war material. Most of the forts, however. had been destroyed by the Austrians. and this is considered in military circles here to account for the fact that the fortress succumbed so quickly to the Austro German at tack
 When the Russians captured Przemysl, they were pressing tne Austrians across the Carpathian passes. Then on May 3 came the news of a great Austro-German drive into Galicia. Advancing slowly but surely and carrying 1000 guns, the Teutons compelled the Russians to fall back until the Russian line ran to the right bank of the San.

RUSSIANS PURSUED

RECOVER TRENCHES FROM BRIT iSH NoRTHWEST OF GIVEN
 CHY-SToRMED CHATEAU.

London.-Nith the fall of Przemysl although this does not appear to be the end of their efforts against .ae Russians in Galicia-the Germans again have turned their attention te the west and simultaneously with the news of the arrival of German re endorsements in Flanders and the Province of Artois, France. come of. fiieial reports of their attacks on pesi- tions recently captured by the British and French.
 They have recovered some trenches from the British northeast of Given. chy and have stormed the chateau in the Village of Hooge. part of which the British still hold. although for a time the British were compelled to eyacuate the building which they captured.
 The Germans also claim to be in possession of the sugar refinery at S-uchez, the loss of which they have not previously acknowledged. While these in themselves are considered small matters in military circle here they are believed to be tine forerun- ners of a resumption of fighting on q large scale
 For some time it has been reported that the French were slowly driving out the Germans from strong posi- tions north of Arras and were. i'll the words of an officer just returned from the front, punching a hole in the German line"
 There has been no change on the Austro-Italian frontier, where the Italians in minor engagements have captured a number of positions, but have not as yet come into contact with the main Austrian forces

Hard Fighting and Heavy Losses on Both Sides-Contests Are Hardly
 More Than Trench Warfare

London. Hard fighting and heavy losses on both sides, notably north of Arras, where the French seem de termined to fight their way forward, continue in the west, but the contests are hardly more than trench warfare oontrasted with the fighting in Ga. iicia.
 The repeated Zeppelin raids on Eng. land have aroused British airmen D extraordinary vigorous action, a raid On Zeppelin shed near Brussels and the bringing down of Zeppelin with it's crew near Ghent being carried out at about the same time. The British official account does not state whether the hangar attacked held a Zeppelin. but message reaching London as serts that it did
 The following official communica- tion was issued in Paris by the French War Office:
 An attack to the southeast of He huterne has been completely success full We carried by assault two of the enemy's lines and the Toutvent farm taking 400 wounded prisoners, of whom seven We're officers and captur- ing some machine guns, the number of which has not yet been established Several hundred bodies of German dead were found on the ground
 "A single German counter attack was delivered, but this was imme- diately checked
 .'To the north of the Aisne the enemy has multiplied his desperate efforts to recapture the two lines Of trenches which we took from him. After having brought up reinforce- nents in automobiles for a distance of So kilometers tabout 50 miles) the enemy made furious counter attack. but was completely repulsed.
 Two thousand Germans killed were left on the ground We made 250 prisoners, among whom were an artillery officer and 2S noncommis- stoned officers We captured six machine guns and many others were found under the ruins"

Benton county assessments are ihe lowest in the state. according to F. k. Brown. chairman Of the Arkansas Tax Commission, who addressed a letter To George N. Gearhart, assessor Of the county, requesting him to make more adequate assessment Wash ington county has the second lowest assessment and 4 letter is to be fer warded to the assessor of tha. county
 According to government census figures, farm lands of Benton county in 1910 were valued aJ $i4.968. 935. This includes lands under cultivation or under fence and does not include wild lands, which the commission es- inmates to be valued at Sff6.210
 The total land value according to the government figures on farm lands and our estimate on wild lands. is $f5.3S+.f45. yet Benton county lands last year were assessed al aH1y g. 604.371, or 16.9 per cent Of their value" said Mir Brown The assess ment is far from fair as other eoup-
  ures. and the average assessment of the state is 40.4 per cent of the real value We will insist that assessors in counties where assessments are so low make higher assessments. Ler- ters. following the circular letter ask ing for a 30 per cent assessment, are to be sent to assessors in counties which have made such low assess ment
 An instance of the unfairness in assessments is shown by a eomparf- son of Washington Crawford eoun- ties. which adjoin In Washington county lands are assessed at 22.S per cent Of their value while in Crawford County they are assessed at 43.5 ger cent.
