Vienna, Oct. iS.-Steps for the Or

The Austrian emperor has issued the

LOUIS Is AGAIN FIRST DISTRICT

Washington, Oct. iS.-One million
dollars a minute is What the nation
must subscribe between now and mid
night Saturday if the Fourth Lib
erty loan is to go over the six billion
dollar mark.
Treasury officials estimated today
that just thirty-three working hours
remained to the two million solicitors
when they set out his morning for a
whirlwind finish the three weeks
campaign for the greatest war, loan
in all history. The task before these
workers was recognized as a Stupen-
dous one, but there was no doubt here
that it would be accomplished.
Officials have no doubt that the ma
tion will respond literally to the call
for dollars for failure of this loan not
only would dishearten the American
and allied armies, but would give new
hope to the shattered erman hosts
now in retreat over half the western
front. An ver-subscription, officials
said, was all that remains as the
clinching proof to Germany that the
war Will be prosecuted without stint
and at whatever cost until just and
lasting peace is made possible.
st. Louis Federal Reserve district
was the first to over-subscribe its
Fourth Liberty Loan quota.
The Treasury today officially recoS-
nized its claim of s3S0.OO0 more than
its allotment of S260.000 000 st. Louis

Paris, Oct 1S.-Liile, Douai and Os-
tend, three great cities. have been de-
livered from the enemy. This is the
most glorious day for tn allies since
the battle of the Marne and it fitting
ly terminates a wonderful battle of
three months, which was opened by
General Mangin's victorious counter Of
fense of July. Many cities have been
liberated and hundreds of square
miles of territory retaken. The results
have been splendid. But the victory
in Belgium is not all. The British
south of LeCateau. have broken into
the German positions and now threat
en- the Hunding line. The whole Ger
man defense system eastward to the
Meuse is in peril. As the first result
OF forcing the Germans back to The
Ournai,Nalenciennes line dur
ing Yesterdays fighting has been to
sap the enemy's defenses before they
have been able to reach them further
south. Without eXaggeration it may be
said that the prospects of the future
are even more important than the ac-
tual results obtained, splendid though
they may be.
The road to Brussels is open Ac-
cording TO latest advices the French

capture of Ostend makes it possible

News of the deliverance of Lille
spread rapidly in Paris, arousing deep
and quiet joy. Flags We're hung out
on all sides and a crowd of refugees
from the Lille region paraded to the
Lille statue in the Place de la Con-
corde, where they sang the "Marsel-
laise" and decorated the statue with
allied flags.
Numbers Of refugees waited mos.
of the day Thursday at the offices of
the committee in charge of the refu-
gees of the department of the Nord
on the chance that news of the eva
cuation OF Lille would be received.
When a messenger arrived with the
glad tidings tears came into the eyes
of the refugees and many of them
wept.
AT most of the theatres the man.
