RETREAT STRATEGIC MOVE.
No German Pressure on Russians
When Alleged Rout Took Place.

Petrograd, Sept. 4.-The recent
evacuation by the Russians of the
advance on the Riga front was not
rout, nor even forced by any Ger
man operations. It was undertaken
by the Russian high command for
accordance with a previously arrang-
ed plan, and was absolutely unfor-
seen by the Germans. The Russians
announcement to this effect came
from the war office Sunday. The
commander of the Russian northern
front has filed detailed report with
the war minister of the recent events
in the Riga section. 1t states that
although it is known that the Ger
mans concentrated important forces
on that front. they have thus far
undertaken no large scale actions.
lOnly series of accommodating
operations have been carried out by
them in the region of the river Aa

ANOTHER PEACE APPEAL.
Next Proposal Of Pope viii be of
Highest Importance"

New York, Sept. 4.-ProgresSo
Italo-Americanq published here, pub
fishes a special cable dispatch from
its Rome correspondent to the effect
that a high prelate has confirmed
to him the report that Pope Benedict
proposes to send a second peace
message to all belligerents. The
second document, the correspondent
says. on authority of his informant,
will be "of the highest importance"
The Pontiff, according to the cor
respondent regards the accusations
which have been made in some quar-
ters with regard to his first message
to be of such delicate and at the
same time unjustiable mature that
he considers. it his duty to speak
once more frankly to all the bellig'
erents and explain his thoughts OF
the possibilities of peace.
