I.ONPON, Sept. 2.-(8ieolal Cablegram
to New York "World nnd Omaha nop.)
The dispatches from Farls today confirm
the conviction that great events ars im
pending, not only along the Alans, but
along the Olee and Somme. The situation
from Noyon to Rliflins shows minor but
unimportant changes, and what ia hap
pening in the eaatern boundary, around
s'ancy, Toul and even Verdun, la inconse
quential when const Irred from the view
point of a great victory.
Ther can Itn no sreat victorv anv-
where save on the left flank of the allies,
owing to many conditlona of men and
geography, and so the battle Is bring con
centrated. Just as the Germans drove
Into France o the allies are seeking to
drive them out, along the same well de
vastated rout.
Depend on Yon KlorW.
Considering, therefore, merely the situa
tion between Noyon and the Belgian fron
tier, or a line drawn through St Quentln
and Cambral, one may acquire some Idea
of the predicament In which General von
Kluck has placed himself and the other
Herman generals to his left.
The Tarts reports are that "extreme
violence'1 characterizes the fighting in
the neighborhood of St Quentln and
further south at Noyon. In the latter
position the Trench were reuulBcd when
their advance guards attempted to take
possession of the town, but later, the dis
patches relate, reinforcements arrived and
the '.offensive was rosumed with great
ivlgor." The capture of Noyon would
break down the German salient at this
point, and might mean the enforced with
drawal of all German troops from French
territory.
Reinforcements Rnshed.
Two factors, however, enter Into the
situation -which are merely anticipated,
though they may be part of the realities
tomorrow. The first Is the desperate at
tempt of the Germans to rush reinforce
ments from Belgium to General von
Kluck.
British reports are that neither food
nor other necessary war materials are
available for this advancing army, and
that the spirits of the men are much de
pressed, owing to these conditions and to
the fear thst they may be cut off by some
force advancing from the northwest Also
their numbers cannot be greatly increased
without weakening the Belgian army of
occupation.
The other factor Is this very army
from the northwest, which the German
are dreading.
British Send New Army.
It became certain yesterday, through
dispatches from Paris (for London is
now almost a closed port to news) that
a' very considerable British force Is now
or It way from Boulogne and Qstend
toward Cambral, - a distance of - nearly
sixty miles.
How strong thl force to or of what
troops It Is composed, the censor will not
permit any Information to .be ent, but
from little forgotten Incidental much
may be gathered. It ia known, for in
stance, that some forty thousand Brit
ish marine were landed In Ostend three
weeks ago. Nothing haa been heard from
them, and equally, Ostend ha heard
nothing from the Germans. But yester
Hnv rum the news that Zeppelins had
crossed over Ostend and dropped three
hnmhi It la reasonable to suppo wnen
they had noted the withdrawal of the
British marines and felt safe In attack
Inff th town.
it ht nresumntlon Toe correct, and It Is
as reasonable as any other, the force
marching on Cambral from Boulogne and
n.t.ml will Include these marines, as
well as a large force of other British
troops. It may even develop that the
long sought for and never found Russian
army la about, thouph that Is highly Im
probable In view of the official British
tatement that no such troop have been
landed In France.
But whatever the composition of the
' force If it reaches Cambral tomorrow
night or the next day It hould he more
than aufficient to break through the Ger
man extreme right and cut through the
German lines of communication. The
only safeguard General Von Kluck has Is
a hasty retirement and how safe this
may prove to be can only be told by the
result of the attempt
In the far eastern theater of war Rus
cta 1 making steady advances, but it hi
more and more evident that any definite
sucoesses for the allies must be achieved
in France' or Belgium during the next few
weeks, as Russia, even if Cracow fails,
ia only now entering upon the most
tremendous problem- of Its campaign,
namely, tbe approach of the Polish and
east Prussian . winter, where frozen
morasses and bogs will make it practically
Impossible to advance.
Airships Fight Duel
in Air Over Brussels
tONDON, Sept. 2S. A duel in the air
over Brussels between a MeUian biplane,
which waa maUntf reconnaissance, and
a German machine, which was In pursuit
of the biplane, is described briefly by a
correspondent of the Exchange Telegraph
company, who witnessed the contest.
The two machines ascended to a great
altitude and, after a swltt. flight, the
aviators exchanged shots at short range.
Huddenly the' German turned turtle and
fell and the Ilelglan -biplane returned
towards Antwerp.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 24 (Special Tel
rgram.) Before the vote was taken to
day on the war revenue bill Congressman
Hloan, of the Fourth Nebraska distrirt,
now a member of the ways and means
committee, secured time for a ten-minute
speech voicing the opposition to the meas

of necessity for such legislation at this

constituting a temptation for continued
exorbitant appropriations when everyone

government should lead.

Wednesday the record waa made when 811
cars of stock, cattle, sheep and horses
were loaded out of the yards In a little
over three hours and a half.
The shipping clerk's books closed at
3:30 o'clock and the yardmen had to col
lect the stock from 179 pens and gather
them Into the loading chutes. It was
then loaded Into ten different trains.
Ordinarily the time consumed In the past
for the same amount of loading would
have run the men well beyond midnight.
The saving in time Is due to the Increased
facilities of the yards. The saving in time
means much to the shippers and farmers.

TWO WARSHIPS LOST
BYAIDINGDROWNIHG
Sinking of Hogrne and Cressy
Occnrred Because Stood By
Shattered Aboukir.
VIOLATED NAVAL WAR RULE
Admiralty lasne Statement Dis
closing; that Ships Stopped and
Thus Made. Excellent
Targets.
LONDON, Sept. 2G.-The fact con
cerning the sinking of the British cruis
ers Aboukir, Hogue and Cressy by a
Ocrman submarine or submarines. In the
North Sea with a loss of nearly sixty
officers and 1,400 men, are contained in
an admiralty statement Issued tonight.
The report of Commander Nicholson
of the Cressy and Norton of the Hogus
state that the Aboukir was hit by one
torpedo and sunk in thirty-five minutes.
Three torpedoes were fired at the Creasy,
one of the explosives missing narrowly.
It lasted from thirty-five to forty-five
minutes. The Hogue was struck twice
ten to .twenty second elapsing between
the torpedoes, and went under In five
minutes. ' 4 "
Fire on Submarine,
The Cressy fired on the submarine and
some of the officers were confident that
the shots sunk It Commander Nicholson
says that the three torpedoes directed
against his ship might have been fired
by the same submarine and that there
la no real proof that more than on was
engaged.
The reports show that the strictest 1
discipline was maintained and that acts
of heroism were performed, but the ad
miralty has established the rule that
such affairs must be governed by the
same laws us prevail In naval actions,
and that disabled ship roust be left to
their own resources.
The statement follows:
"The facts of this' affair cannot be
better conveyed to the public than by
the attached reports of the senior of
ficers, who have survived, and have
landed in Kngland:
"The sinking of the Abouklm .was, of
course, an ordinary hazard of patrolling
duly. The Hogue and the Cressy, how
ever, were struck because they proceeded
to the assistance of their consort and
remained with engines stopped, endeavor
ing to save life, thus presenting an easy
and certain target to further submarine
attacks."
Situations Iter and Strange,
"The natural promptings of humanity
have, In this case led to heavy losses,
which would have been avoided by strict
adherence to military considerations.
Modern naval war Is presenting us with
no many new and strange situations that
an error of judgment of this character
is pardonable, but It has been necessary
to point out for the further guidance of
his majesty's ships that conditions which
prevail when a vessel of a squadron Is
Injured In a mine field or Is exposed
to submarine attack, are analogous to
those which occur In action and that the
rule of leaving disabled ships to their
own resources Is applicable so far, at
any rate, as large vessels are concerned.
"No act of humanity, whether to friend
or foe, should lead to neglect of the
proper precautions and dispositions of war
and no measures can be taken to save life
which prejudice the military situation.
Small craft of all kinds should, however,
be directed by wireless to close on the
damaged ship at all speed.
Display of ('oarage.
"The loss of nearly sixty officer and
1.4H9 men would have not been grudged
If It had been brought about by gun fire
In an open action. Uut It Is peculiarly
distressing under the conditions which
prevailed. The absence of any of the
ardor and excitement of an engagement
did, not, however., prevent the display of
discipline, cheerful courage and ready
self-sacrifice among all ranks and ratings
exppeed to the ordeal.
"The duty on which these vessel were
engaged was an essential part of the ar
rangements by wblph the control of the
seas and the safety of the country are
maintained and the lives lost are as use
fully, as necessarily and a gloriously de
voted to the requirement of his majesty's
service as If the loss had been Incurred
In a general action.
"In view of tbe certainty of a propor
tion of misfortune of this nharacter oc
curring from time t time, It Is Impor
tant that thl point of alew should b
thoroughly appreciated. Tho loss of these
three cruisers, apart from the loss of life,
Is of small naval significance. Although
they were large and powerful ships, they
belonged to a class of cruisers whose
speed hss been surpassed by many of the
enemy's battleships.
"Before the war It had been decided
that no mure money should be spent In

should make their way to the sale list as
soon as defects became manifest."
The report on the sinking of the Cressy,
signed by Ilertrnm W. L. Nicholson,
commander of the late II. M. 8. Cressy,
follows:
"Kir: I have the honor to submit the
following report In connection with the
sinking of H. M. 8. Cressy In company
with If. M. 8. Aboukir and Hogue on the
morning of September "2 while on patrol
duty:
"The Aboukir was struck at about !;23
a. m. on the starboard beam. The Hogue
and Cressy closed and took up a position,
the Hogue ahead of the Aboukir and the
Cressy about 400 yards on Its port beam.
As soon as it was seen that the Aboukir
was In danger of sinking all the boats
were sent away from the cruiser and a
picket boat was hoisted out without steam
up. When cutters full of the Abouklr's
men were returning to the Cressy, the
Hogue was struck, apparently under the
aft 9.2 magazine, as a very heavy explo
sion took place immediately. Almost di
rectly after the Hogue was hit we ob
served a periscope on our port bow about
300 yards off.
. "Fire was immediately opened and the
engines were put full speed ahead with
the Intention of running it down. Our
gunner, Mr. Dougherty, positively as
serts that he hit the periscope and that
the submarine sank. An officer who waa
standing alongside the gunner thinks
that the shell struck only floating tim
ber, of which there wss much about, but
It was evidently the Impression of men
on deck, who cheered and cheered heart
ily, that the submarine had been hit. The

CrcfHy.
"Captain Johnson then maneuvered the
ship so as to render assistance to the
clews of the Hogue and Aboukir. About
five minutes later another periscope was
seen on our starboard quarter and fire
v-as oened. The track of the torpedo

the starboard side.
"The ship listed ahoit ,m degrees to
the starboard und remained steady. The
tuna was 7:15 p. m. All the watertight
doors, deadlights and scuttles had been
securely closed before the torpedo struck
the ship. All thn mess stools and table
shore and all available timlier below and
on deck had been previously got up and
thrown over side for the saving of life.
"A second torpedo fired by the same
submarine inlxsed nnd passed about ten
feet astern. About a quarter of an hour
after the first torpedo had hit a third
tnrtedo, fired from a submarine just be
fore the starboard beam, hit us under
the No. 5 holier room. The time was
7:30 a. m. The ship then bean t heel
rapidly and finally turned Veel up, re

before It finally sank at 7:55 a. m.
"A large number of men were saved
by casting adrift on pattern three target.
The steam pinnace floated out of Its
