Pressure of Allies'
Left Wing Felt.
CENTER HOLDS STRONG
Allied Armies Hammering With
Wliole Strength.
MOVE IS NECESSARY SOON.
Linn of Combat Has Changed
Considerably. ...
WAR SUMMARY
For the moment all interest is fixed
on the territory occupied by the
Frer.ch left wing and the German
rtcjht wing, where the most deter,
mined fighting of the battle line is
going on. The allied forces are
gradually moving northward, and,
according to the French official
statement, the battle continues to
develop more and more toward the
north, the object of this being to
get beyond the extremity of the
German line for the great outflank,
ing r.ove.-nent which has been the
object of the allies' operations.
Meanwhile there is comparative calm
from Rheirrs to the Meuse, the cen
ter, but in the Woevre district, the
southeast, there have been engage
ments in which the French have
made advances.
Regarding the operations in northern
France, Berlin is silent, dispatches
from the German capital declaring
that no information has been given
cut regarding the progress of the
general engagement.
An official announcement from Petro
grad says that the Austrian province
of Galicia is now completely freed
of Austrians, the last remnants of
their troops having sought refuge in
tne Carpathians. An official dispatch
from the Russian capital says that
. the fighting along the East Prus
sian frontier has resulted in the re
pulse of all the German attempts to
force a passage of the river Niemen,
in the government of Suwalki.
To offset this an official statement is
sued in Berlin, dealing with the sit
uation in the Carpathians, says that
the Russians, in trying to cross the
mountains in small columns anJ
break through into Hungary, have
been repulsed everywhere.
Paris. Oct. 1. There is no definite
indication that the historic battle
aluiig the 15"-mi!e front from the
Somine to the Moselle is nearing a
fi:.;s.i. There are, however, evidences
that the Germans are receding before
c forcible atd sustained pushing from
the allied armies, especially on their
western and eastern wings, while the
cenur. where the Germans are more
strongly entrenched than at any other
point, with heavy artillery, remains
almost stationary.
It is generally concluded by French
military men that some important
move i.icst scon he made by the Ger
mans, who have found it impossible to
st'-m ti e advance of the allies, though
they offeied the sternest and most
lr."j ci -te resistance, sacrificing thou
Fcr.'.Ts of men daily.
Tlie German wings appear to be
foiling la:-!: on the center, leaving
ti.ej'i some loophole for a backward
movement by the way of Bethel.
T! " Germans' main supply base at
J niviHe. which is protected by heayy
s of troops, as it is absolutely es
f j. rial that this place shall be held
f 'r the revictualing of the German
.-.fries in northeastern France, ap
! ai s to he placed in a somewhat pre
rr.rious situation with its single line
r-.f railroad.
Th liif of battle lias changed con-
"'iei-ably sir.ee the beginning of actual
r".tact between the two great armies.
The allied commanders are hus
! nniiing their men's lives to the great
est possible extent by keeping them
from frontal attacks on positions
where the Germans are in advanta
geous situations, but whenever the
r'm of campaign necessities direct at
tires the French and British soldiers
fo forward cheerfully with the utmost
foniidence in their leaders.
The nineteenth day of the great
hntt'e of the Aisne finds the allied
armies pushing with all the strength
they can bring to bear in their great
effort to outflank the German right
wing and fcrce it back from its lines
cf communications through Belgium.
There is evidence that this movement
Is resinning to tell and that unless
something unforeseen happens this
portion of the German army must fall
back to another defensive lino.

GALICIA CLEAR
OF AOSTRIANS
Franz Josel's Troops Seek Ref
uge In Carpathians.
GERMANS REPULSED AT NIEMEN
Hurled Back by Russian Fcrces When
They Attempt Passage of That Riv.
er Battle Is Reported Furious One.
Russ Front Is Extended.
London, Oct. 1. The Russian armies
continue to sweep through Galicia and,
according to a report from Rome, that
province cf the Austrian empire i3
clear of Austrian troops. What is
meant is that the field armies of Aus
tria have either gone into the fort
resses of Przemysl and Cracow or re
treated to the south and west in the
Carpathians.
The Russians have come across the
country in great parallel lines, and,
masking Przemysl, have swept the
country clear as far as a line drawn
from Douklo, in the south, to the
neighborhood or Rzeszow, in the
north, while other forces have pushed
their way through the passes of the
Carpathians into Hungary. They have
only to go a little farther to get pos
session cf the railway that runs from
Sandec through the mountains to
Lublau and thence through the heart
of the country to Budapest.
If they accomplish this t'aey will be
able to join hands with the armv
which is approaching Cracow. Ac
cording to Petrograd correspondents,
they intend to treat Cracow as they
did Przemysl and continue their march
into Silesia. In the meantime the
fighting along the Kast Prussian fron
tier, in which the Russians have been
successful in extending their front
ninety-nine miles, has resulted in the
repulse of all the Germans' attempts
to force a passage of the river Nie
men. The battle is described as eing a
serious one. but no details have been
allowed to leak out. The German ob
ject in sending a strong force in this
direction is to attempt to cut the rail
way line from Warsaw through Vilna
and Groduo to Petrograd.

j announcement in Berlin and received
here through the Marconi ii eless
company follows:
"The Russians in trying to cross
the Carpathians in strong columns
and break through into Hungary have
been repulsed everywhere. As these
troops are operating a great distance
from the main theater of war, their
maneuvers are miimponnnt. but if the
intention was to create disquiet among
the Hungarian population, it has been
entirely frustrated.
"As the result of new operations
commenced by the united German-Austro-Hunai
ian forces the enemy on
both sides of Weichsel (in Siiesia. on
the Vistula) has retreated. Strong
bodies of Russian cavalry have been
dispersed near Biecez (Galicia), while
to the north of Weichsel several H
