LONDON GOES WILD OVER
VON KLUK'S SURRENDER
LONDON, Sept. IS.
All London Is elated at the news,
received from Dieppe, that General
von Kluk nnd 14,000 men have been
cut off from the rest of the German
army and were forced to surrender.
It Is considered certain that the Brit
Ish troops under Sir John French par
tlclpated In the capture.
Tho report was doubted at first be
cause of the small number of prison
ers, but It Is pointed out that tho army
of General von Kluk was on the ex
treme German right on Septembers and
that It has stood the brunt of the rapid
pursuit by the Anglo-French troops. In
the last few days Von Kluk's troops
have beenhnstenlnR up the northern
aide of thd Alsno River In an effort to
avoid being cut' off, and to reach the
armies under General von Bticlow and
General von Ilauson.
During Its entire flight It has been
harried by the British troops and the
new French army, which has formed
on tho British left. Report of r-rls-oners
captured and of enormous losses
In killed and wounded since September
will account for a large number of
tho laige army which ho had under his
command when he was tho right Hank
of tho huge wing the Germans made
toward IVtris. That this army, driven
back by forces to Its south and west,
poorly fed nnd weak from tack of
sleep, had dwindled until 14,000 repre
sents Its number, or at least Its main
body, Is easily credible.

ALLIES' SWIFT PURSUIT
OF GERMANS CONTINUES
BORDEAUX, Sept. 15.
The French War Otllce afternoon an
nouncement declares that nt no point
have the Germans been able to make
a serious stand against the pursuing
French columns. They are giving bat
tle, chiefly in the nature of rear guard
actions, covered by artillery, but it is
plain that the objective of tho Ger
mans is to reorganize their scattered
columns and attempt a defense in the
intrenched lines prepared by the sap
pers north of the Aisne.
Meanwhile, the allies have taken
many prisoners. Entire regiments are
reported to have been cut off from tho
main rreatlng columns and captured
held out with a single exception. The
Germans have been endeavoring to
smother the Verdun forts as, with that
strong point in their hands, they would
control the main lino of railway eat
and west and would bo able greatly to
relieve the pressure at various points
to the west.
It is officially stated, however, that
tho efforts of tho Germans have proven
a failure, and that the main columns
of the Crown Prince's army are now
being forced toward Stenay and Lux
emburg. It is not believed here that another
decisive battle is possible for several
days. The Germans aro short of im-
V.'ith the rolling Dacfe of the German tide that swept all over northern France and south and southeast ,of the Marne and Paris itself, almost to
the upper Seine, on September C, the new line of contact between the German armies and the allies is now practically that of the last weeks of August.
Toward the north and northwest of Paris the Germans have abandoned Amiens and nearby towns, and moving north from their battle line on the Aisne,
have retreated toward St. Quentin. In the centre they have retreated from Rheims, which they had fallen back to from the Valley of the Marne, and have
given up their positions south of the Argonne, while the French have practically regained the frontier near Nancy and the passes in the Vosges, and have
also retaken some of the border towns in Alsace, near Belfort. At Verdun, Berlin reports renewed bombardment, but the French report the Germans under
the Crown Prince as moving north.

It was ottlcially announced today that

The battle took place near Gohlapp
(eight miles east southeast of Koenlgs

The official statoment follows:
After a steady withdrawal for sev
eral days before superior forces of
the Germans, the Russians retelvd
heavy reinforcements nnd drove the
enem back. Reiormlne, the foe
again took the offensive and attacked
our positions at Goldapp. They
stormed our positions with bajont
charges In the face of a withering
fire, but were repeatedly repulsed.
Finally, after a. bloody conflict that
lasted l' hours the em-my iHriated.
Our troops are in hot pursuit. The
victory was due to tho cltvtr stiat

diew tho enemy's troops out until
ttiey were too weak to ovtnoma us.
In again assuming the offensive In East
Pmssta, first line troops were withdrawn
from tho Austrian theatre of war and
sent to the aid of General Rennenkampf,
whose columns have been hard pressed.
It is understood here, however, tnat these
operations are iiitendeu sniehy to hold

ROMD, Sept. 15.
Domestic politics and foreign diplomacy
are exerting tremendous pressure against
tho Italian Government In tho present
war crisis of Kuropo, some groups de
manding war and others insisting upon
neutrality and peace.
The committee of direction of the Radi
cal patty, at a meeting attended by mem
bers of Parliament, has adopted a resolu
tion calling on tho Government "to con
sider whether tho grave but Inevitable
task is not Imposed to change from neu
trality to active participation In the con
flict." This resolution Is highly significant at
this time, and nroused high Interest in all
quarters today.
In Its preamble, the resolution declares
that Italy's interests In the Adriatic must
bo safeguarded, and that Italy should co
operate to prevent the war from being
Fettled In a manner that win determine
tho predominance of military tendencies.
Accoidlng to the Glornalo d'ltnlla, which
has been lukewarm toward the allieB,
there are three groups now playing tho
main roles In Internal political affairs. Tho
first of these, represented by the Govern
ment and supported by a majority of the
Constitutionalist party, is favorable to
neutrality until the intorcsts of the coun
try are In danger, but meanwhile favors
strengthening the army.
Tho second group Is represented by
bomo Constitutionalists and several form
er Cabinet members, Including former
Premier L.uzzatl, and Socialists, who favor
neutrality to tho end of tho wnr. tho pre
serving of economic energies, of tho coun
trv and tho maintenance hy the Govern
ment of Its own system of foreign policy.
The third group consists of reformers,
moderate Socialists, mombers of tho mil
itary clique, radicals, republicans and na
tionalists, who favor the abandonment of
neutrality in order to realize mo om as
plratloni to redeem the Italian provinces
on tho Adriatic littoral still under foreign
rule
The prss Is divided, some of the papers
contending for the Immediate abandon
ment of neutrality. Others express tho
opinion that dissolution of tho present
Cabinet and the selection of a nationalist
ministry would throw the Government
Into discard
In the meantime, Germany and Austria
have not altogether abandoned their ef
forts to have Italy live up to her obliga
tions under the Triple Alliance. Mean
while. Great Britain and Franco have
made strong representations to the Italian
Government against her participation in
the strife The Government is struggling
with might and main to keep at peace,
but sudden developments of an untoward
nature may throw her Into war any day.
BORDEAUX, Sept. 15.
Prince Tasca de Cuto, an Italian so
cialist deputy, is quoted today by the
Temps as follows:
"Opinion In Italy Is unanimous In de
manding the realization of the antl-
triple alllince program, nvery one to
day believes that Italy must absolutely
separate her policy and destiny from the
triple alliance.
'The Italian army Is ready for an
eventualities. Our fleet Is mobilised and
coaled, thanks to arrangements with
England. We aro now neutral only In
appearance The action of Italy must
definitely turn the scale In favor of tho
triple entente."
