PARIS. Nov. $. The correspondent of
the Excelsior at Havre aaya he hu from
a aourre which he cannot designate, news
of the death of General Von Kluck, ten
days ago In a hospital at Namur, where
ha ws treated for a wound In the head.
The news of the alleged death, the cor
respondent says, has been carefully con
cealed In Belgium and Germany.
General Von Klqck, who led the dash
of tha German right wing, which got to
within a few miles of Paris In the first
month of the fighting, has been reported
wlth'n the Isst few days In official com
munications as directing- his army In the
fight on the Alsne river. When the
scene of fighting shifted to Belgium and
the German light wing was extended Into
that territory.- General Von Kluck, fol
lowing his skillful retreat from the vicin
ity of Parisremained in the position ha
had taken on the Alsne. The fighting
(her recently has been overshadowed by
the operations in Belgium, and General
Von Kluck and his army, according to
reports, have been given a much needed
rest.

go their twelve-Inch guns, which they
had concentrated on the Good Hope.' The
firing continued for several minutes with
out damage. The German ahota fell short
an the Good Hope had such a roll that
showed It could not reply. The smaller
cruisers were far out of range.
Draw la Nearer.
' Slowly the sea fighters drew in nearer
and when the two units were but (.000
yards apart the Good Hope fired its two
nine-Inch guns. It was still unable to use
Its eight alx-Jnch guns, which' on the
gundeck were so near the waterllne that
' as the vessel rolled they were almost
awaab. A terrible broadside from the
Scharnhorat and Gneisenau crippled the
British flagship and Its engines stopped.
The Monmouth, recognizing the distress
of Its companion, made a dash to cover
the .Good Hope, but by that time the
distance separating the two squadrons
had been reduced to 5,000 yards and the
Germans were able to bring all their
Fhtps into action and to use the guns of
the five vessels.
These were directed first, against the
.Monmouth, Glasgow and Ontario. The
- Ontario, badly, damaged, escaped in the
g.ilhcrlng darkness and soon afterward
: was followed by the Glasgow, which also

ARE YOUR KIDNEYS
How They Fight
-Uric Acid 7
If you eat meat, than - you have - uric
ar-id in your blood. And urlo add is the
chief cause of weak kidneys. The kidneys
. do their utmost to free the blood of irri
tating uric acid, but it la a losing fight
for them. They become weak from the
overwork. They get aluggisb; the eilml
native tissues clog and tnua the work of
, filtering Uie blood is performed very
poorly and the waste is retained to poison
the entire aystem.
' When your kidneys throb with a dull
ache, when they feel like lumps of lead;
when you have severe headaches, nervous
and dizzy spells, sleeplessness, tired feel
ing, constlDation and bladder disorders,
you can make up your mind that these
troubles come from weak, sluggish kid
neys. ,
You ran help the weakened kidneys snd
put them in good working order again by
asking your druggist for about five
ounce of RheumasalU. Take two tea
spoonfuls in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few mornings and the
result will surprise you.
Jtheumasalts act quickly without grip
ing or nausea. It is delicious to take. It
Is a uric acid solvent as well as a saline
laxative delightfully effervescent.
These famous salts are very Inexpen
sive. Every one can profitably take a lit
tle Kheumasalta occasionally .to keep the
kidneys clean, working and efficient.
Ithaumasalts Is prepared by the famous
Rhrtumahath Company, Minneapolis, Minn.

The Good Hope, badly damaged, hung
on. until' an explosion occurred on board
It. It withdrew to the westward at 7:30
o'clock. As It disappeared flames were
seen on board of it. Whether the crew
was able to stop tho fire or if the explo

flames died down and it was not seen

for the wounded ship, when the Gcrmsn

the Union stock yards at Chicago will
be closed to the receipt of cattle, sheep
and other ruminants and swine from No

today organised to protect their Interest.
They said the pedigree value of their herd
Is 12.600,000. The state. It Is said, will pay
them only the actual meat value of slain
animals, thereby entailing a heavy loss
to the owners.
The National live stock exhibition, the
largest live stock show in the world, was
to have been held In Chicago beginning;
November 38, but probably will be called
off this year.
No Danger of Meat Faaalae.
Danger of - a meat famine resulting
from the closing tomorrow of the Union
stock yards is remote, officiate of lead
ing packing companies announced today.
Prices will not be perceptibly affected,
they said, and even if they are raised
the advance will be so small that deajers
and butchers will not take advantage of
them. Storage houses are well supplied
with meat, it was announced, and many
of the Chicago packing companies are
operating plants in other cities, where
there haa been no Infection of cattle by
foot and mouth disease, the- tnaiady which
caused federal and state officials to or
der the Chicago yards closed.
"There have been tlo cases of the dis
ease reported In the west," A. G. Leon
ard, president of the Union Stock Yards
and Transit company, said, "and the west
la the biggest source of supply of meat
animals. The packers can handle ship
ments at Omaha, Kansas City and other
western plants."
Order - Effective Friday.
Orders closing the Chicago yards will
go into effect at the close of business to
morrow and continue until the opening of
business on the second Monday thereafter,
or November 16. Business will be sus
pended, therefore, for nine days. The Im
mediate effect will be to stop the dally
shipment of almost WO.ffjO cattle sheep and
hogs to the Chicago market. The order
will halt a dally business, outside of the
meat packing industry, of 1,S00,600 and
affect 35,000 employes. A portion of them
will be idle during the suspension.
' The closing of the yards was ordered
yesterday following the finding of six
Infected steers among a herd of 600 feeders
and eleven Infected Holsteln cows which
were exhibited at the recent national
dairy show. In nine days, government
experts predict, the yards will be free of
contagion. The process of elimination will
include the destruction of Infected cattle,
the disinfection of cattle pens . and car
and the. .killing of. rats. . .
Receipts of cattle; hogs and-sheep were
53,000 head, or 13,000 less than those on
Thursday a week ago. The decrease was
mostly In hogs, prices of which advanced
26 to 60 cents, and In sheep, which rose
10 cents over yesterday's close. Cattle
sold 10 to 20 cents higher than they did
yesterday.
Beginning Saturday, the first business
day on which the yards will be closed,
there will be no market quotations until
the embargo la lifted.

PETROGRAD. Nov. R.-(Vla London.)
The new position of the Gorman front
along the river Warthe, over seventy-five
miles west of the Vistula river,
which they reached at the time of tho
attempted attack on Warsaw, Indicates
the tremendous retreat of General Von
Himlenherg'a entire army In Poland dur
ing the last two weeks. This retreat
regarded as especially Important since
suih noted Industrial centers as 1.041,
Plotrkow, Random and Kirlre are recap,
tured by the Russians. The strategic
point at Bandoiplr which is at the Junc
tion of the Man and Vistula rivers, has
also been retaken.
There is paitlcular elation over Rus
sia's advance since there now seems
little poKslhlllty of the Germsns regaining
the lost' territory because of any Improve
ment In the roads, the condition of which
was regarded as a largo fartor of the
Germs n failure. The Improvement of
the roads Is more thsn counterbalanced
by the enormous Russian reinforcements
since received. While the .population of
the dintrlct a month aco were vacillating
In their sympathies, all are not enthus
iastically with tho victor.
On the East Prussian frontier the Ger
mans have met with no success In a
sumlng the aggressive and at some point
the Russians have even crossed Into
German territory. In this region, how
ever, the German retreat was not marttedj
by serious losses. Some of the military i
experts here explain that the passing of
tlm Germans from the offensive to the
defensive la due to the reported with
drawal of seven army corps front Poland
to the western theater of war.
While the retreat of the Austrian
operating In South Poland and GalMa
Is not so marked as that of the Germans,
the official reports here Indicate that
they have moved perceptably backwards.
The suspended siege of Privmysl, which
Is much acclaimed by the Austrlans, Is
