LONDON. Sept. l.- Special Cablegram

The World learns from an unofficial
tource that the Germans are attempting
to get Amerlcen grain Into Germany
through Holland In a manner which is
causing embarrasrment to the English
admiral.
Cargoes of wheat or other grain are
shipped from Americans ports to Rotter
dam in neutral bottoms.
Belligerent powers can selxe food sup
plies in neutral bottoms if they have rea
son to suspect it will eventually find Its
way to Germany if they give compensa
tion for It at market rate In the country
to which It Is consigned.
Kngland now has control of the sea.
and the Oermans are satisfied if they
can get two out of teo shipments of grain
to Rotterdam. The eight captured car
goes are taken to Kngland, sold and ttv
money Is turned over to the London agent
of the Rotterdam consignees.
-j nese immediately transmit it to
America, where It Is used again to buy
wheat for Germany, and to date the
grain market has fluctuated in such a
wsy that there has nearly always been a
profit in the transaction.

Staff Officer of Sir John French
Gives Account of Fighting
in France.
SIX RIVERS BEFORE ADVANCE
Thru Plaa trmat Direction f
rsrwsrd Mmreh, at tr
Which fisrmans Ifcle in
Make Resistance.
I.ONrON, .ept. ll-An account of the
operations of the Prltlsh army In France
and of the French arm es In Immediate
Much with It during the period from Pop.
temlrr 10 to 13, written by an officer at
tached to Field Mntshsl 81 r John French's
staff, ass Issued tonight by the official
press bureau. The account follows;
"Hlnce Thursday, September 10, the
Mr It lull army made steady progress in Its
endeavor to drive back the enemy In co
operation with the French. The country
across which it had to force Its wsy and
will bave to continue to do .-o. Is undulat
ing and covered with patrhra ot thick
wood.
"Within the erea. which faced the Brit
ish before the advance commenced, right
up to Iaon. the chief feature of tactical
Importance is the fact that there
are six rivers running across the d'
rectlon of the advance, al all of which
It was possible that the Oermans might
make resistance These are, In order
from the south, the Mame. Ourco,, Veal,
Alsne, Allette snd Olsr.
Held l.lne t Marne.
'The enemy held the line of the Msme,
which was rrossed by our forces feptem
ber f. as a purely rrar guard operation.
Our passage of the Ourcii, which here
runs almost due east and west, was not
contested. The Vesle was only lightly
held, while reslstani-e along the Alsne,
both against the French and Prltlsh, has
heen and still la of a determined char
acter. "On Friday. September 11. but little op
position was met with along any part of
our front and the direction of the advance
was, for the purpose of co-operating with
our allies, turned slightly to the north
east. The dsy was spent In rushing for
ward and gathering In various hostile de
tachments. By nightfall our forces had
reached a line north of the Ourcq, extend
ing from Oulchy-l-Chateau to Longpont.
General Advanre of French.
"On this day there was also a general
advance of the, French all along their
whole line, which ended In a substantial
success, ln one portion of the field, Duke
Albrerht of Wurrttemburg's army being
driven back across the 8aulx, and else
where the whole artillery of a German
corps being captured. Several German
colors also were taken.
"It was only on this day that th full
extent of the victory gained by the allies
on 8eptemh.er 8 was appreciated by them
and the moral effect of this success has
been enormous. An order dated Sep
tember ( and 7 Issued by the commander
of the Oerman Heventh corps, was picked
up.. Jt stated that the great object of
the war was about to be attained, since
the French were going to accept battle,
and that upon the result of this hattle
would depend the Issue of the war and
the honor of the German armies.
Counted on French Retreat.
"It seems probable that the Germans
not only expected to find that the Brit
ish army was beyond the power of as
suming the offensive for some time, but
counted on the French having heen
driven back onto the line of the Peine
and that, though surprised to find the
latter moving forward, against them
after they had crossed the Marne, they
were In no wise deterred from making a
great effort. On Ssturds'y. September it,
the enemy were found to be occupying
a very formidable position opposite us on
the north of the line at noiesons. They
had both sides of the liver and an en
trenched line on the hills to the north of
eight road bridges and two railway
bridges crossing the Alsne. within our
section of the front. Seven of the for
mer and both of the Utter hud been de
