Count Czernin Finds Fault
With Michaelis' Stand
On Peace Question

London, Oct. 16-The Deutsche
Tages Zeitung of Berlin has quoted in
an exchange Telegraph dispatch from
Amsterdam says that Count Czernin,
Austro- -Hung garian foreign minister,
recently requested the German chan
cellor, DR.. Michaelis to state Ger
manys peace terms urging that Ger
many make concessions in the west
Count Czernin received vague reply
whereupon he stated that he could no
longer negotiate with DR.. Michaelis
inasmuch as the chancellor made
vague statements when clearness and
frankness were necessary.
These statements of the .Tages
Zeitung are not denied. the dispatch
says, and have made great :sensa-
ton, being particularly illustrative of
the fervent desire for peace on the
part of Austria.

Ill Health Cause
For Deed

Wallace E. French. Ga years old con.
mitted suicide by Hanging in the cellar

neck. climbed on a box and after fast
ening the rope to a beam kicked the
box from beneath his feet.

called but found life had been extinct
over an hour. Selectnan Frank Carr
who arrived soon after authorized the
removal of the body

Russian Fleet Also Loses
Ship in Battle Near
Island of Oesel
GERMAN TAKE 24OO
PRISONERS IN ATTACK
Oesel Nearly All in T euton
Hands-Islands ofAbro
and Runo Attacked

Apparently there has, been no ces-
sation in the hurried program of the
Germans to seize in its entirely the
Russian island of Oesel at the head OF
the Gulf of Finland, but although the
troops have now taken the greater
portion of the island. The aid they
had expected from their fleet in put
ting down Russian opposition in ad-
iacent waters is meeting with consid-
erable resistance from the Russian
warships. In a small battle with tor
pedo craft and possibly light cruisers
the Russians have sunk two torpedo
boats and damaged two others, while
the Russians themselves lost a tor
pedo boat destroyer.
The German land forces now are
driving hard against the Svorg penin-
sular on the southwestern portion Of
the island of Oesel with the object of
capturing the batteries at Serel which
dominate THE eastern entrance to the
Gulf of Riga. According to the Ber-
lin war office the Russians in this
region are isolated but are desperately
resisting. Berlin reports also that
Abro Island and Runo Island have
been occupied by Teutonic troops. It
is asserted that 2.400 prisoners, so
guns. 21 machine; guns, and several
airships were captured by the Ger
mans in Oesel Island.
The troops of the Entente allies are
still keeping to. their trenches in Elan .
ders. probably awaiting a betternent
of soil conditions which the recent
rains. and flooded streams rendered al
1nosta aimpracticable for attack.
+ To the south along the Aisne front
the, Germans, following a heavy bonn
bardment, tthave again attacked the
French and succeeded in penetrating
their. entertainments. AS has been
customary however, the French i'm
mediately : counter ttacked and re-
gained the lost ground. i -. :,
