BURIAN ADMITS HUN DEFEAT.

Amsterdam.-An exchange of views
between the central powers and the
entente was tentatively suggested by
Baron Burian, the Hungarian
foreign minister, in an address to Wis
iting German newspaper men, accord
ing to a Vienna dispatch,
Baron Burian is quoted as saying:
81 am certain that this war must cost
this tormented earth a terrible amount
of bloodshed and an unreasonable de-
struction of precious possessions be-
fore the end can be reached by the
military overthrow of the enemy, if
indeed, this at all is possible"
Continuing, the foreign minister
said: we are oppressed by the same
cares but we are not dOwnhearted.
You can convince yourself here that
We. just as in Germany, are waging
a defensive war, rejecting all respon-
sibility for the p~rolongation thereof
which was criminally forced upon us
by the enemy.
NO party can be sure of the issue
until the end Of a war but 1t is not to
be expected that either party should

Paris. Sept. 11.-Between the Somme
and the Disc the French have ad-
vanced beyond Hinacourt. despite
strong enemy resistance, according to
the war office announcement.
Near G~ouzeaucourt and Havrincourt
the British pressed n little further to-
ward Cambria in the former region
after having put down counter at
lacks. To the south the French, from
the district west of st. Quentin south
ward to the western side OF the st.
Gobain forest, have pushed eastward
toward the Disc river, which they are
virtually upon all along this front,
with their flanks resting danger
ously near both St. Quentin and La
Fere.
St. Quentin now stands only a little
more than three miles away, while La
Fere is so closely encrOached upon
from the west and Outflanked from the
north that seemingly it must soon fall.
In their latest endeavors, the Fran
co-American forces have made some
slight progress in the face of the ex-
tremely stubborn resistance of the en-
envy. Likewise, in the sector east OF
scissors the French and Americans
have gained additional ground between
the Nesle and Aisne rivers.

London-'We have passed through

will never return" says Field Marshal
Haig, commander-in-chief of the Brit
ish forces in France, in an order of
the day. The commander then says:
The enemy has now spent his eff
fort"
The order of the day follows:
One month has now passed since
the British armies, having successful
ly withstood all attacks by the enemy,
once took the offensive in their
turn.
In that short space of time, by a
series of brilliant and skilltully eXecut-
ed actions, our troops repeatedly de-
tcated the same German armies whose
vastly superior numbers compelled our
retreat last spring.
What has happened on the British

their defense, they broke the enemy's

Field Marshal Haig added that the
capture OF $4,000 German prisoners
and $50 guns in the course of four
weeks fighting showed the magnitude
of the British achievement, and adds:
Yet more thar that has been done.
Already we have pressed beyond III
old battle lines of 1917. We have made
a wide breach on the enemy's strong
