Itematcd a rain of concussion shells on

oft of their guns.
The duel started at sunrise on Sunday
fld continued throughout tho day. To-
tird nightfall, however, the German
became weakened and the French
'llllery experts explained that the Ger-
an guns were nelng withdrawn, having
ren used mcroly to cover the general
treat.
At one period of the artillery duel, I
ded 32 bursting shrapnel shells during a
igle minute. Indicating the fierceness of
e. Herman lire, several ot tno houses
,Bolsaons proper were set on Are by
fating shells but there were very few
talltles among tho Inhabitants owing
.tho fact that the German flro on the
:r was mostly shrapnel. The In
bltants had taken rofugo in tho cellars
a were out of harm's way. To this
atrlbutablo the fact that there were no
jrfous losses.
e French gun crews wcro absoluteW
affected by the fire, and the Infantry,
lung inc oruers to go forward, were
, cheerful. The Turcos (the French
rtan troops) were hard to keen In
leck. They have an uttor disregard of
nger and when the orders finally came
charge drove forwnrd recklessly, their
anier rising over the sound or mua
ry. Their ono ambition seems to be
leslro to outstrip th French rccnlnr
the charge.

Ability to dislocate his right arm at
will has brought several hundred dol
lars to Frank J. Marter, of Sherman
dale, Pa., but efforts to work tho trick
for damago claims In this city were
futile, and this afternoon ho was In
dicted by the grand Jury on charges of
perjury and attempting to obtain money
under false pretences.
The man, according to 1 II. Gasklll,
special agent of the rtapld Transit Com
pany, Is one of tho best "accident
fakers" In tho country. Ills arrest was
due to an Investigation made by Gas
klll during the last two weeks.
Shortly after his arrival in this city last
month, Marter went to the subway station
at Fifth streot. threw himself to the plat-
rorm and declared that his right arm had
been broken In falling from a cur, said
Gasklll. Tho following day ho presonted
a claim to thev company for J1G00. Tho
company ignored his claim, and about a
week ago Marter said that ho would ac
cept 1000. This was also refused, and the
man finally Bald ho would bo satisfied If
tho company would give him $2 a week
for his room.
lie finally confessed, nccordlng to Gas
klll, and pleaded for mercy beeauso he
has n wife and threo children. His caso
will come up for trial Wednesday.
Aa a result of lnaulrlei mmi. in v..
iorK city, unskill found that Marter In
jured his arm when he was 10 years old,
nnd It Is said thnt he has mulcted railway
corporations and other largo concerns by
using the old Injury for damage claims.
The prisoner left New York last May.
It Is said, after collecting J300 from an
Indemnity Insurance company for a claim
ngalnnt Fox's Fourteenths Street The
atre. Marter claimed that ho was In
jured there by sitting on a broken chnlr.
Shortly after this the man claimed to
havo been Injured while working on n
building m New York. He was employed
as a steeplejack und said he was In lured
by a bolt falling on him. Again the In
jured arm was used. A month later, ac
cording to Gasklll, Marter collected J3X)
from the Concrete, Steel, Mason and Con
struction Company, for whom he worked
on the New York subway. In this cao
he said he was Injured by a plank falling
on him,
rater. It Is eald, he threw himself from
a platform at the subway station at
Fourteenth street. He gave his name as
Frank Ilaker of the Central Hotel, It Is
sahl, and claimed that his right elbow
had been dislocated. Tho railway com
pany settled with him for J23. He after
ward worked for a contractor In Long
Inland; his arm was again injured and ha
collected W75 from the Aetna Insurance
Company.

who hna been active for the past few days
for peace by mediation, called at Oyster
Bay with Mis. Straus, nnd had luncheon
with Colonel and Mrs. Itoosovolt.
"While Mr. Straus Insisted that his visit
was entirely social, tho fact that he called
upon the Colonel In tho thick of Mr.
Straus' activities for peace, caused com
ment. "My visit to Sagamoro Hill Is simply
and purely a social one. Mr. Straus and
myself are old friends of Colonel and
Mrs. Roosevelt," said Mr. Straus.
AfIcciI If the call did not have some
relations with Mr. Straus' npparent efforts
within the past few days, and was made
In an cftort to enlist tho former President
In tho cause of peace mediation, he re
plied: "Absolutely not. I am not here for that
purpose."
Mr. Straus when asked If, Irrespective of
his visit. It could bo assumed ho was try

movement, lie Insisted It was not fair to
mako any such Inference. He simply ro
fused to discuss It.

TROLLEY CAR STRAYS
FROM STRAIGHT PATH
Couldn't Bun It nnd Talk at Same
Time, Says Crew.
A trolley car ran backward on Spruce
street from 3tth to the great surprlso-of
tho residents of that street this morn
ing. The car was loaded with passengers
and they appeared Indignant. The mo
torman and conductor explained that
they couldn't run tho car and talk at
tho same time, so tho riders had to
grit their teeth and wait. The car that
back sllded was a Subway Angora
numbered 34-20.
This Is how It happened. Tho car Is
supposed to turn from Spruce street to
Woodland aventio at 37th. But this
morning the car kept on at normal
speed to 31th street.
Passengers who had been riding on this
line for months were somewhat aston
ished therefore when they were greeted
with a change of scenery. Houston Hall
and other nlco buildings pascd before
them and then some persons asked the
conductor whpro they v. ere going. He

by the route the r.ar was taking. Then
mo conauctor stopped tho car and hold
a conference with tho motorman. He
was also somewhat puzzled.
Meanwhile there was a deluge of sug
gestions and opinions. It was finally
decided to run tho car back to Thirty

earn from tho opposite direction.
After reaching thero the car finally

APPROVES $1,000,000 FUND
FOR TRADE EXTENSION
Secretary of Chamber of Commerce
Indorses Central Labor Union's Move.
The movement to raise a fund of 11,000,
000 to advertise and extend tho trade of
Philadelphia to all parts of the world,,
begun by the Central Labor Union, today
received the indorsement of N. B. Kelly,
aecietary of the Chamber of Commerce.
Mr. Kelly pointed to the unusual oppor
tunities now open for trade dovp!nnmnt
and declared prompt action was neces
sary. Tho conyncnt by Mr. Kelly was occa
sioned by a resolution adopted by the
Central Labor Union yesterday, asking
the co-operation of the Chamber of Com
merce with the Labor Forward Move
ment Committee and the Central Labor
Union In raising the Jl.000,000 fund.
When the resolution was brought to
Mr. Kelly's attention he raid: "I am
back of any movement which has for Its
aim tho oxtenslon of tho trade of Phila
delphia to South America and to other
parts of the world. We are faco to face
with unusual opportunities at this tlmo
ahd prompt action is necessary If we
would mako any forward steps."
The Central Labor Union at the meet
ing yesterday also In another resolution
made a demand upon Councils that they
make c-ery effort to facilitate the pass
ago of the $11,700,000 municipal loan to
Inaugurate civic Improvements nnd pro
vide employment for Idlo men In this
city.
LONDON, Sept. II.
The Dally Newo Rotterdam correspon
dent telegraphs: "I learn Berlin Is bo
coming very anxious about happenings on
tho Western frontier. News now Is not
published so freely by the Government,
ami although outwardly there Is on calm
a feeling as ever, great anxiety exists
among the general public.
"This sudden restriction of public news
when tho public knows that n decisive
battlo has been fought both In the East
and In tho West Is causing suspicion.
Long lists of officers killed appear to tho
papers nightly and In some cases well
known families have been wiped out."
GENEVA (by way of Paris), Sept. 14.
Nows of the German retreat, despite
every precaution, has passed through
Switzerland to the north nnd has caused
profound depression In Germany, after so
many announced victories.
According to advices received here, peo
ple have gathered In tho streets In var
ious ucrman towns, shouting: "Tell uh
the truth! Give us tho news!-'
The newspaper olllces at Munich liavo
ben closed, as disorders are feared.
It Is also reported that tho news of
tho steady retirement of tho Germans In
France has trickled Into Berlin and be
numbed the people.
Along the Swiss-German frontier the
full extent of tho German retreat Is
known. Peoplo are crying: "If the French
have beaten us, what will tho Hussions
do?"
LONDON. Sept. 14.
Dispatches from Paris and Bordeaux
to the London newspapers describe scenes
of enthusiasm, mingled with the thank
fulness of the populace, at the news of
tho German retreat.
The streets, tho dispatches say, are full
of people, all too overjoyed to express
emotion by noise or singing, but men
oro seen embracing each other with
fevror, while women give vent to their
feelings by crying quietly.
Everybody Is amazed at the unexpected
change In the tide of war nnd the fullest
credit 1b given General Pau, who Is re
garded as having, by prompt and decided
Birntcgy, changed the face of tho cam
paign. Everybody is asking what the Germans
will do: whethey they will be able to
reform their forces nnd make a stand,
and what will become of the Crown
I'rlnce's army, tangled up In the wooded
Argonne region.
It is understood that tha factor which
brought about the changes In the fortune
of war was the new nrmy which General
Pau formed quickly and quietly at Ver
sailles, composed of some of the best
troops from the eastern frontier and a
fine body of cavalry. This army marched
through Paris northward and then turned
northeast. Its effect was felt at once.

been forced to retreat. This was ndmlN"''ron,
ted today In the following official an
nouncement: Generalissimo Gtand Duke Nichols.
communicates the following:
Our rapid movement In East Prus
sla has been retarded owing to the
necessity of giving our main atten
tion to the fighting In Gallcla. Con
sequently the army of General Ren
nenkampf hns suspended Its march on
Gerdan (39 miles southeast of Koe.
nlgsberg) and Labia (2 miles north
east of Koenlgsberg). On September
7 the German troops began a general
offensive against this nrmy and a
spreading movement In tho direction
of their southern frontier.
It was difficult to estimate th.
number of German troops engaged
owing to tho dlnilcult nature of the
country, but a deep overflowing
movement against the left wing of
General Hennenkampf was revealed,
on September 10. We were forced to
retreat on tho following day In order
to hinder the enemy's offensive oper
ations, which soon showed the Ger
mans to have a greatly superior
force. Fighting continues along the
frontier.
Newa from Berlin confirms the retreat
of the Russian army about Koenlgaberg;
affirms the previous announcement that th.
Germans had taken the offensive all along
the lln In East Prussia. Koenlgsberg !
now safe from attack for Borne time.
