Allies Advance Hevea Mile.
A wounded British officer who haa re
turned to Paris from the front baa sup
plemented the official newa with the dec
laration that the allies on their left have
advanced aeven miles.
Berlin, however, reports that the Ger

Mil position at Craonne, vlghteen mllea
northweat of Rhelma and t"rt occupation
of the village of Bethany,-three mllea

also a aucceaaful attack on tha line of

tight French army it-orp. as a result ef
which German troops have crossed the

Nowhere else along the battle line is
any great effort being made to carry a

I'rom Petrograd comes stories of the
continued flight of the broken Austrian
armies In Gallcla, while at the asme time.
Vienna declares that these armies are
reorganising for offensive action. It
would seem clear, however, that only
rrsemeyl Is today standing out against
the total occupation of Gallcia by Russia
Tetrograd reporta further that the popu
lace already Is fleeing from Craoow, from
which city a portion of the unique library
haa been removed for safety.
Reports received In the Russian capital
are that Austrian-Polish volunteers are
reclining to serve against the Russians.
These give the Russians hope that Cracow
may be de'lvered to them ' without a
struggle.
The Russians claim still further vic
tories against the Austrian forces at
tempting to reach Craoow, and they pre
dict that there Is no chance of the Aus
trians resuming the offensive before next
spring.
That the Austrian army was not so
badly demoralised and disorganised aa at
first reported' Is Indicated by the admis
sion from Petrograd of the determined
nature of the our days' assault which
preceded the recapture of Imberg.

rrovortllo,
! LONDON. Sept. 2 2. Hrlgadier
j General Christian Frederick Beyers,
j commandant general of the Union of
I Routh Africa's defense forces, ' has
resinned his pout, because of Ms dis
approval of the action of Great
Britain In sending commandoes to
conquer German southwest Africa.
The official press bureau tonight
; gave out the letter of renlgnatlon of
! General Ueyers and the reply of Gen-
eral Jan Christian Smuts, minister
i of finance and defence of the South
African Union.
Pro vocation.
General Beyers reminds General Smuts
that In August he disapproved of the
sending of commandoes (force of Boer
troops) ti conquer German southwest
Africa and expresses surprise that Par
liament confirmed the resolution of the
government to conquer the German terri
tory without any provocation by th-s Ger
mans. He Insists that a majority of the
Initch people In the union disapproved of
crossing the German frontier.
Referring to a statement that Great
Britain had taken part In the European
war for the sake of Justice and to pro
tect the Independence of smaller nations
and comply with treaties. General Beyers
points to the resignation of two British
mlnlstera as evidence "that a strong mi
nority cannot be convinced of the right
eousness of war with Germany." A to
the protection of smaller nations, General
Beyers says'
Points n aa,
"I have only to Indicate how tha Inde
pendence of the South African republic
and of tho Orange Free State was vio
lated and of what weight the Sand lilver
convention was. , ,
"It Is said thla war Is being waged
against the barbarity of tho Germans. I
have forgiven, but not forgotten, ull the
barbarities perpetrated on our country
during the South African war. Wltn very
few exceptlona all the farms, not to men
tion many towns, were so many 'Lou
valns' of which we now hoar so much."
General Beyers denies that the Germans
Invaded South African Vnlon territory
and declares "If they did, the Dutch and
British would fight sldo by side In Its
defence and that he would gladly lead
them."
Slants' Reply,, .
Oeneral Smuts In tils reply says: "All
the plan , against German southwest
Africa were made In consultation with
General Beyers and hi auggestlona were
largely carried out. '
"Your bitter attack on Great Britain."
Oeneral Bmuta continued, "not only Is
entirely baaelesa, but most unjustifiable.
coming aa It doe in the midst of a great
war.
"Tour reference to barbarous act flar
ing the South African war cannot justify
the criminal devastation of gtelglum arid
can only be calculated to show hatred
and division among the people of tiouth
Africa." . f. .

l LINCOLN, Sept. 22. (Special.) It I

Koyse Corrects Impression.
Secretary Royse of the State Banking
board rather objects to a etatement made
this morning that he believea t,he Home
Building association of Omaha carries a
Plan which Is "legitimate and within the
law."
"The Impression I meant to convey,"
aald the secretary, "was that the plan
given to me by the president of the asso
ciation was one which did not 1 any opin
ion come under the jurladlctlon of the
State Banking board, and therefore did
not require a license. I do not care to
appear as endorsing any plan aa legiti
mate when I have not had a chance to
Investigate It. There are many home
building plana that do not come under the
Jurisdiction of the board which are per
fectly legitimate perhaps, and there are
others which arc not. The fact that they
uu not. come, under our supervision does
not mean that I hey are all right. I did
