has published a statement that 70,000
Russian prisoners, among them 300
officers, were captured at tho battlo
of Gllgenburg. The Husslan artillery
is also reported to have been destroy
ed. Gllgenburg is in East Prussia,
thirty-two miles northeast of Koenlgs

diplomatic channels in Washington
Tuesday reported two of tho most im

German ombnssy gavo out a message
from Berlin, received by wireless,
claiming that tho German forces had
captured near Allensteln 70,000 Rus
sian prisoners, including two com
manding generals, 300 officers and tho
entire equipment of Russian artillery".
Great Britain asked the United
States to be prepared to care for Brit
ish diplomatic interests In Turkey, in
dicating that tho allies had practically
lost hope of persuading tho Ottoman
empire to remain neutral. Dispatches
received at tho British embassy re
ferred to the incorporation in tho
Turkish army of several German offi
cers, which was regarded as the fore
runner of intervention by the porto in
behalf of Germany.
Would Force Italy In.
Turkey's entrance In the conflict
means tho alignment of Italy, as well
as Greece, on tho side of Great Brit
ain, France, Russia, Servla, Monte
negro and Roumanla, diplomats here
believe. Just what the attitude of
Bulgaria will bo is a -matter of-uncer-talnty,
tlic-Vgh-'tha "Turkish ambassa
dor here gave out a statemont speak
ing of tho community of interests of
Bulgaria and Turkey. The Turkish
situation was watched with deepest
concern by diplomats because of tho
Imminence of a general war In the
Balkans and extension of the war
drama to all of eastern Europe.
The official statement of the big
German victory against the Russians
attracted wide attention. Military ob
servers pointed out that if the num
ber of Russians taken prisoners had
been correctly estimated at 70,000
there must have been groat casual
ties, though no mention of this was
made.

Rome, via Paris, Sept. 1. A tele
gram received in Rome from Berlin
announces the mobilization of the
Turkish army.
Following the advice of Field Marsh
al Baron von der Goltz, it is stated,
the Turkish government will form an

200,000 men, all Mohammedans.
Seventy-two superior German offi
cers, forming tho German military
mission at Constantinople, have been
incorporated In the Turkish army and
will participate In the war.
The presence of the Gorman officers
In the army Is interpreted to mean
thn' Turkey will fight on the side of

PLAN PROMPT MOVEMENT
London. After four days of desper
ate fighting with casualties between
5,000 and 8,000, the British army In
France is rested, refitted and rein
forced for the next great battle, ac
cording to announcement Sunday by
Lord Kitchener, secretary of state for
war.
In a statement based on reports
from Sir John French, commander of
tho British expeditionary forces, the
secretary says that tho British, after
struggling against tremendous odds,
retired to a new lino of defense,
whore they have not been molested
since Tuesday.
Since this fighting ceased the
French, on the right and left, have
brought the German attack to a stand
still, it is declared.
Lord Kitchener's statement, which
was issued through tho medium of the
official information bureau, follows:
"Although the dispatches of Sir
John French as to the recent battle
have not been received, It Is possible
now to state what has been tho Brit
ish share In. the recent operations. -
"Thoro has, in fact, been a four
days' battle on tho 23d, 24th, 25th and
26th of August. During the whole of
this period, tho British, in conformity
with a general movement of the
French armies, were occupied in re
sisting and checking the German ad
vance and in withdrawing to new
lines of defense.
"The battle began at Mons on Sun
day, during which day and part of tho
night the German attack, which was
stubbornly pressed and repeated, was
completely checked by tho British
front. On Monday, the 24th, the Ger
mans made vigorous efforts, in su
perior numbers, to prevent the safe
withdrawal of the British army and
to drive it into the fortress of Mau
beuge. Germans In France.
The London Dally Telegraph's Am
iens, Franco, correspondent, wiring
Saturday night, says:
"Two instances of serious fighting
have been reported in this vicinity
during the past twenty-four hours.
The first Is a stiff engagement. Indi
cating that the Germans re really
uncomfortably close. This engage
ment is still In progress,.
"The second engagement was a cav
alry attack by Uhlans. They were
repulsed after liberal treatment nd
mlntercd to them by French artillery.1'
A dispatch to the Dally Mall from
Amiens, dated Saturday morning,
says:
"So far the German advance has
not come within ten miles of this city.
It was pitiable to see the unhappy
villagers, turned out of their houses
at Albert, making their way hero with
such of their possessions as they were
able to carry.
"I have not been ablo to discover
whether it was Gen. Pau's army from
Muhlhausen or other fresh troops
which checked the German advance,
but for tho raomont Gen. Pau is the
popular hero here. All seom to be
lieve that ho will utrn the tide."
Another Amiens dispatch to the
Dally Chronicle says:
"Tho French retirement before the
Gorman horde advancing from Namur,
down tho valley of the Meuse, was
masterly. The Germans won their
way at a cost In human life as groat
as in defeat; yet they won their way.
"For Franco that retirement Is as
glorious a story as anything in her
annals."

becoming exhausted by its heavy
losses.

selves against a wall which has
yielded, but had the advantages of
position and strategy on Its Bide.

without a chango of pries for cream.
But beginning about tho mlddlo of
Soptombor it will bo onforcod with a
chango In prices. Under instructions
from Uio food commissioner, and with
tho consent of tho creamery opora
tors, cream was graded No. 1 and No.
2. Tho third grade was condemned
and not sold for butter making pur

dor the old mothod of selling cream
the prodncor who took sanitary caro
