"At the same time the Germans made repeated efforts to crush and dtsloeate the Russian forces near Druskenikt, on the Niemen. On Sep- tember 24 the Germans also began an attack on the fortresses of Osso- wets, but everywhere met with fierce resistance, and Were compelled to re- treat. Not satisfied with counter- attacks. our troops took the offensive vigorously and pursued the enemy. Notwithstanding the energetic resist - trace offered by the Germans, they could not check the onward rush of our troops, who captured the enemy's positions, one after another. "Routed by this irresistible engage- ment, the Germans weakened, and are at present In full retreat; they are leaving our territory in haste. At certain points this retreat 1s degener- ating into a flight." VON MOLTKE DISMISSED News has reached London the( Lieut. -General Helmuth von Moltke has been superseded by General Votghtsrhets as chief of the German general staff. An Amsterdam despatch says that "the dismissal of General von Moltke was due to a collision with the Em- peror over several important ques- tions uertions of strategy." Continuing,the despatch says that the Emperor wished to subordinate sound strategy to a desire to attack England, but Gen. von Moltke prefer- red to postpone the latter action as 1t would have no effect upon the Im- mediate situation. ANTWERP HOIAING OUT German Attack on Belgian Fortress aid Capital Fails The Belgians deny that any of the forts' of Antwerp have fallen. The latest attempt of the Germane was to trues the River Nethe. in this they were defeated. The Belgians claim that their whole army is not concen- trated at Antwerp, but that detach- ments are throughout the country en- deavoring to Interfere with the Ger- man .line• of communications into France. and they claim that to these attempts their army has been sig- nally successful. A despetch from Antwerp. dated Sunday night, said: "The Germans bare been repulsed. They asked for a two-hour annhtice to bury their dead. but the nel1lane refused to com:ay "The Belgians have destroyed all the bridges over the River Nettie. The Germans attempted unsuccess- fully to rebuild the bridges."

The h`rencb. who un Sunday, of• flefally reported that all the German attacks In this resp a had been re- pulsed sod that the allies had re- armed the offensive, followed this Monday by the announcement that while to the north of the Oise the battle which commenced seriously about Sept. 26, continues with greet violence, no decisive result has been reached and that al certain points the French troops ha%e had to yield ground. According ,o the otflctal commun- ique issued in Paris Runday night the struggle on the left wing is at its height at the Arras district, but ft he without any decisive results. There Is also reported another action be- tween the upper valleys of the F-ncre and the Somme and between the Somme and the Oise. The French report progress in the Soissons dis- trict. where they have taken German trenches. They also report progress to the Weeuvre district between Apre- wont and the Meuse and on nisi Rupt- de-Mad. President t'olncare. Rene Vtvtanl, tbei Prime Minister, and Alexandre Mllerand, the Minister of War, lett Bordeaux on Sunday for the battle front. It L said that they will proceed to the headquarters of the French general start and possibly congratulate the officers and men oiethe officers and men oie their success In the campaign. Con- siderable interest attaches to the visit of the President in that he, has several times before expressed a de- sire to go to the front. but that each time General Joffre has told him the time was not opportune. in view of his present visit it is believed that the opportune time for his appearance at the battle front has arrived. Allies Stormed Trenches A despatch from the battlefront on Sunday said: "Trench after trench of the German line fell into the posses- sion of the allies on Saturday after most vigorous assaults, carried home with determination combined with the newly learned lesson' of caution. The Germans, who had borne back the --allies' western wing slightly on Friday, retained their advanced posi- tions near Roye until they became un• tenable. They then fell back to new lines which had been previously pre- pared. The western wing of the allied armies wa - it'll further extended to -day, and now roaches within 3e) miles of the Belgian frontier, carrying the allies' overlapping movement fa • north-easterly direction. The German reinforcements on this end of the Zine are very strong. These troops probably were brought from bodies of German forces echelon- ed In the rear of their advanced en- trenchments. Their courageous dashe3 to the allies' front did not meet with success, and the French and British were able to make them fall back oa their deep trenches. Alfie. t;se Open Order The sight of the sifted Infantry creeping acroes the open spaces In front of the trenches in a brilliant sunshine which glittered on their wea- pons was impressive.
