Today's War
Summary

There are yet no outward indica-
tions as to when and where the Ger
man command will launch its next
stroke against the allied lines. The
fighting lull on the western front con-
tinued with only raids and local at
tacks, while on the Italian front the
Austrians, reeling from the shock Of
the repulse of the Piave, seemingly
are content to allow the Italians to
have the initiative. @
1t is two weeks since the German
crown prince ceased his Intellectual
efforts to reach Compiegne and the
breat athing-space, which has been
longer than between the offensive
across the Aisne and that on the
Noyon- n-Montdidier front, has been
sufficient to permit the Germans to
prepare fully for a renewal Of the Of
fensive. Allied capitals look for an
other enemy blow very soon.
For the past few days the German
artillery fire has been violent on sew
eral sectors, each of which might be
selected for an attack. These sectors
are south of Arras, the northern and
southern legs Of the Lys salient and
south of the Aisne. The Germans may,
however. attempt to surprise the al
lies by attacking where they hope they
will not be expected. u
Aerial activity Is above the average.
The Germans have raided Parie two
nights In succession. No great dam
age was caused Wednesday and on
Thursday slight material damage and
several Casualties resulted. Allied
bombing squadrons are active against
German military targets behind tho
lines. The British are making nightly
raids into Germany. especially against
and railroad towns be-
tween Metx and the Rhine.
Unsettled conditions in Austria
Hungary may keep the Austrians from
Immediately resuming the offensive in
Italy. The food situation continues 10

may be proclaimed throughout the

trail countries indicate PAM German

signed nor has the emperor re-

wedge in this area to such an extent
that the entire German front from
Rheims 1orthward seems to be col

being fastened by the vigorous strokes
delivered by the French along the
AisFe, while further east the Ger.
man left flank, in the active battle
area, is being !, hammered hard BY
other F rench forces and the American
first army in the Champagne, Araonne
and Verdun regions.
Most telling in it's immediate ef.
feet is the thrust by Field Marshal
Haig, southeast of Cambrai, where
American troops also are operating.
The British commander has swung
the main direction of his drive north
eastward and already has pushed TO
within two miles of the important
railway junction of La Cateau.
The taking of La Cateau, which
seems imminent, will cut the last of
the lateral railway lines connecting
the German northern front with the
great salient of Laon and apparently
will make inevitable the evacuation
of the entire Laon area.
Before lie Cateau the British are ON
Ia line fully ten miles in advance of
the lonpitudal line running between
cambrai and ST. Quentin, having
swept through the great part of this
area in great strides, driving before
them a disoraanized enemy. The re-
sistance of the Germans was report
ed TO be stiffening during the night,
however, indicating that a stand
might be made in an effort to save
the railway junction as long as pos
sible from capture.
Meanwhile further south the French
are pushing toward the 0ise in the
general direction of Guise. They have
made progress 20 the east and south
east Of St. Quentin, where they are
closely approaching the river. Their
columns here have passed Fontains-
Notre Dame, nearly six miles direct
ly east Of ST. Quentin. This push is
likewise having q marked effect in
closing the Laon pocket.
In che north the wedge driven from
Cambria east is already affecting Tho
front north of Lens. The British first
army is moving forward here in the
direction of Douai, which is the next
great town marked for eaptgre by
the allies along the British section Of
the line.

EARLY REPLY TO
WILSON NOTE Is
EXPECTED FROM

Internal Conditions in Ger

Speedy Action
tBy Aesociatea Presg.l

Washington. Oct. 1o.--An early re-
sponse to President Wilson's note of
/ inquiry to the German chancellor is
expected by American officials.
While realizing that an answer to
the three pertinent questions put TO
the Prince of Baden will be very
difficult if the original proposal OF
the German government were not
sincere, officials are confident that
internal conditions in Germany and
the tremendous exigencies of the
military situation will force speedy
action by the chancellor If he hopes
to prolong the existence of his cab
iEet beyond few days.
So far as the hold of the govern
ment upon the people are concerned.
conditions in Austria are even far
worse than those in Germany. This
fact is calculated to strongly affect
the German government, which is
understood to entertain grave doubts
4 of the strength of purpose OF the dual
monarchy and to fear that Austria,
or perhaps Hungary acting inde-
pendently, will follow Bulgaria in
seeking an unconditional peace. This
would leave Germany to wage the
war alone, for it is foregone con-
clusion that Turkey already is lost
to the central alliance
The pointed inquiry directed 20
Prince Max as TO whether he Is

authorities Of the empire who have

believed be very embarrassing. II
the response is in the affiramtive.
