CHICAGO, Nov. 6. A large part of tha
cattle receiving and meat packing Indus
try of the country, long centered in Chi
cago, tonight temporarily was shifted to
other western cities, and the Chicago
Union stock yards, for the first time
since Its organization in 1S65, was closed
down for nine days. In consequence of
the prevalence ot hoof and mouth disease
among cattle. The quarantine against
the stock yards and all other cattle pens
within therstato went Into effect at mid
night. The mate's action supplements
the federal quarantine- against Illinois.
No moro cattle, sheep and hogs are "to
lie received In Chicago until November
In, when business Is to be resumed after
the yards have been thoroughly disin
fected and pronounced free from tho dis
ease. Killers to Other titles.
The packers tonight sent to Kansas
City and their other western brunches
1,000 killers and butchers to kill and dress
tho animals which ordinarily would have
been sent to Chicago. Thoy announced
that the producta from their western
plant would be sufficient to supply the
market without any change In prices.
An optimistic view waa taken, of the
situation here. All the packers said they
had enough stock on hand to run their
plants for three or four days, and none
of them would entirely shut down. A. Q.
Leonard, president of the stock yards,
said: ',
"By the middle of next week every ani
mal In the yards will have been killed,
and the thousands of pens and. miles of
water troughs will have been cleaned and
disinfected. I feel confident full opera
tions might be resumed by next Thurs
day, butas the cleanup la to be thorough
and, M such a vital point the health of
our cattle throughout the country Is at
stake's few day'1 other delay won't mat
ter." '
The Only Apprehension.
"Our only apprehension is thut the dis
ease might spread In other states which
the government might quarantlno and
we would be unable to get cattle even
wnen the Illinois quarantine Is lifted.
However, the drastic action of the fed
eral government has the full co-operation
of cattlemen everywhere."
Disinfecting la proceeding night and

Germans Make Second Concerted
Attempt to Break Line of Allies
IONDON. Nov. .-What has now be
come another well defined stage of the
battle In Vest Flandera, that Is to say, a
second concerted attempt of the German
army to blast its way through to the
sea, was flaming and roaring from
Nleusort to the French frontier today
without definite result so far on either
fide.
Therea near the roast formerly held
by the extreme Oennan right and from
hlch the Invrders were forced by the
allies after many days of hard fighting,
is held only by dead, wounded and dying,
the Inundation having made the vlclnlt:'
uninhabitable for the living and having
prevented an advance of the British,
French and Belgian allies.
Hundreds of Oermans left behind" In
the retreat deubtleas will perish, as many
were marooned like driftwood on an
American lowland In lime of flood.
Thousands more on both sides are yet
to verlsh In the struggle now progressing,
tho outcome of which would decide
whether the Germans are going to reach
the French coast this winter.
An official dispatch from the British
army headquarters at the front today
pays a tribute to the way the Invaders
are meeting with death and speculates,
as heretofore, whether this Is due to
patriotism o'r to Iron-clad discipline.
Whatever the explanation. Colonel K. D.
Swlnton of the British army Intelligence
department, who writes these eye-witness
accounts, says:
"The German troops have won. our re
spect for tho way In which they have
advanced."

Off Peru of British

BAN FRANCISCO, Nov. .-Prlvate ad
vices today to prominent British shipping
agents here from their correspondents In
Valparaiso report that an engagement Is
now taking place off Tauyos, Peru, be
tween British, German and Japanese war
ships. Press dlspaaohes telling of a pre
vious German-British naval engagement
are confirmed lo the messages.
No details of the engagement were
given. Closing reading of the cable mes
sage seemed to Indicate that Tauyos was
not the name of a town off whlct. the
engagement was in progress, but a code
word which had been left blank of mean
ing in the firm's code book. An Inquiry
to the firm's home office at London for
a translation of Yauyos had brought no
answer late today.
This translation was substantiated by
the fact that the Peruvian town of Yau
yos. first thought to have been Intended,
is soma distance Inlond and that It did
not seem likely the German squadron
would have had time to reach the Peru

War Summary
Germany in striking another
mighty blow along the whole lino
of battle. Recrudescence of ac
tivity U indicated by today's of
ficial French statement, which
mentioned severe encounters at
various points bcUwrffn Flanders
and the Swiss border.
Meanwhile fighting Is proceed
ing actively by land and sea In
the new war gone created by Tur
key's entrance Into the conflict,
and a British warship Is said to
have met with disaster in the at
tack on the Dardanelles. a
The battle In Belgium has re
sulted in no decisive advantages
on either side. The flercost en
counters renter about a sharp
bend in the German line, form
ing a triangle with the northern
batie at Dlxuiude, the southern at
Ypres and the apex at Routers.
Reports from Drltlsh and
French sources make the claim
that the German attack Is weak
ening and that the allies now have
a reasonable hope of driving back
their foes to the interior of Itel
guim and thus compelling a gen
eral retirement along the rest of
the line.
German advices, however, of
fer no basis for such a conclusion.
Apparently Germans are bring
ing in heavy reinforcements, in
th determination of Increasing
Instead of diminishing the fury of
their attack.
Along the rest of the line the
offensive generally remains with
tha Germans. The French state
ment says that in the region of
the Argonne forest, in the Woevre
district, and further east, around
Nancy, there have been heavy en
gagements, in some instances lead
ing to. bayonet encounters. No
Imporant victories are claimed
by the French, although minor ad
vances are said to have been main
tained at various points.
In the east the Russians claim
t decisive victory over the Aus
trlans. They have recaptured the
town of Jaroslau, near the long
Deputed fortress of Prsemysl,
Petrograd reports, capturing
6,000 Austrian prisoners.
In Poland the Germans "have
employed the same tactics as in
France by pushing forward their
troops as rapidly as possible, and
meanwhile fortifying a strong line
to the rear, to which they might
fall back. They have given way
lo these selected positions and the
Russians now face the same prob
lem which confronted the French
and Britloh in France.
Russia is prosecuting vigor
ously the war against Turkey.
Petrograd advices are that Rus
sian forces have entered Armenia
by two routes and that several
Turkish regiments have been
captured.

"I am credibly informed that
the German losses In the supreme at

and Lille .are well over 60,000.
The fighting Is still proceeding,
but its fury has spent Itself. The Ger

early yet to emphasize suggestions of
German demoralization."
LONDON, Nov. S. The latest reports
from the western battle front, reaching
London from Dutch sources, Indlcats
that the Germans have retired from tho
Yser, but the fighting Is said to be pro
ceeding within the triangle of Ypres,.
Dixmude and Roulers.
The latest official communications give ,
evidence that the German assaults are .
becoming less Intense and there are some
Indications of the resumption of the of

Belgians reported occupying both banks
of the Yser and forcing the Germans In

In spite of these reports, however, '
there Is no disposition on the part of the
allies to be overconfident Some hint of

London In the Russian military cam

the hope that the advance on the east

a menace that Berlin will be compelled
ot recall several seasoned corps from
the' western front to meet the new
danger.
