RUSSIAN MILLIONS MASS FORCES TO CRUSH LAST LINE OF THE AUSTRIAN RESISTING
ALLIES BEAT BACK'
ADVANCE OF INVADER
Continual from ri' 1
teau of Craonne. This Is n. position
of exceptional strength. General
Bluecher, who was defeated by Napo
leon on the name ground, declared that
25,0d0 troops could hold It against any
odds.
East of Verdun the. French tines seem
tj have been reinforced as thero are
eight French army corps near tho Lor
rnlno border, where the German left
la being attacked with vigor and vio
lence. The battle line, roughly speaking, ex
tends on the east from a point near St.
Die, through Lunevllle, Pont-a-Mous-json,
Etaln, Consenvoye, Montfaucon,
Elouealn, to the north of Rhelms.
Graonne, thence along the Alsne val
ley to a point between Lesslgny and
St. Quentin. Tho line crosses three big
rivers, the Olse. the Alsne and the
Jleuse. while It also lies across several
smaller ones.
French forces have worked to a
point near Tcronne, 17 miles north
west of St. Quontln, where they are
nttacking the advanced position of tho
Germans. The main English army Is
near Solssons. On tho British left,
In the vicinity of Noyon and Lesslgny,
Is a strong French force, which Is evi
dently trying to close In on La Fere.
(La Fcro Is 14 miles northwest of
Laon.)
This French force Is ovldcntly tho
Sixth French Army, which waa sent
to help tho British In Its turning mova
mont against General von Kluk's
forces.
Tho French and their English allies
havo had to fight hard to gain nnd to
hold every foot of conquered territory
As a fresh position Is gained, It Is Im
mediately fortified. This Is trying
work nnd deadly work, for the Ger
man artillery keeps up its steady rain
of shells and the sappers aro com
pelled to face this flro while stretch
ing their earthworks.
Tho weather was reported to be
slightly Improved today. But there
can be little permanent improvement
expected at this season of the year
The entire battle ground Is a quagmire
nnd this naturally has hampered move
ments of artillery. But according to
General O.illleni's headquarters thero
Is not a single important point nlong
the entire battle front whore the heavy
French artillery is not now In action.
SORTIE REPULSED, LORRAINE
TOWN TAKEN, SAYS BERLIN
BEKLIN, Sept. 22 (by way of Am
stcrdam). Official denial that the Allies have
forced General von Kluk to retreat
seven miles Is made by tho "War Ofllce.
The statement adds that tho right
wing Is standing firm at nil points, al
though tho Allies havo been heavily
reinforced.
Further announcement Is made that
attacks by tho French and British
forces on the German lines are dimin
ishing in strength, nnd the German of
fensive is growing stronger at nil
points.
An official statement Issued at mid
night announced tho capture of the
heights of Craonne and the town of
Bethany (near Rheims).
The official War Office statement is
sued today reported an uninterrupted
seriei of successes against the French.
It said:
The attack of the German troops
on the line of fortifications south
of Verdun continues uninterrupt
edly. Cote, in Lorraine, which was de
fended by the Eighth French Army
Corps, has been occupied, tho Ger
mans now holding this point.
A sortie of tho French troops from
tho northeast front of Verdun was
repulsed.
Fortresses like the heights of
Craonnc have been taken in battle.
In the advanco against Rheims,
which Is now afire, tho village of
Betheny has been taken.
The enemy shows signs of weak
ening as a result of his continued
attempts to capture our positions.
On the contrary, our troops, fight
ing from well fortified points, have
had a rest nnd arc taking a strong
offensive. Their attacks are grow
ing stronger at all points.
Great vator has been shown by
the enemy's troops. They havo
charged repeatedly In an attempt
to silence our artillery, but havo
been as repeatedly repulsed.
The statement Issued at midnight
said:
The strong, hilly positions at
Craonne have been captured. Ad
vancing on Rheims, our troops oc
cupied the village of Bethany.
"We aro attacking the strong
forts on the line south of Verdun
nnd have crossed the east border
In the direction of Lorraine, which
is defended by eight French nrmy
corps (320,000 men). A sortlo
from tho northeast of Verdun ha3
been repulsed.
Tho French troops camping to
the north of Toul (13 miles east of
Nancy) have been surprised by
our artillery.
In the rest of tho French war
theatre there have been no en
gagements. In the Belgian and Eastern (E.ist
Prussia) battlefields the situation
is unchanged.
Tho statement that the French have
eight nrmy corps In tho Lorraine
region Indicates that the Allies' right
wing Is trying to turn tho German left.
With the heights of Craonne hold by
tho German centre, It will bo possible
to withdraw troops from there to
ttiengthen both tho right and left
wings i they aro threatened.
No details of the situation at Rheims.
heyond tho fact that the town has
been bombarded, havo reached Berlin.
GERMAN COMMUNICATIONS
ON RIGHT THREATENED
LONDON, Sept. 22.
The renewed pressure of the British
nd French along a ten-mile front be
tween Cambral and Le.-atolot has
forced the German extreme right back
to n point where further letlrement
will enable the Allies to cut the
Kaiser's railway communication from
Cambral through Maubeuge to Xamur.
and to threaten tho railway Uno from
Bt. Quentin to both Maubeuge ami
Mejtieres.
One of the developments of the day's
news Is the report received by a news
agency here to tho effect that General
von Kluk has been transferred tq
Mens. In Belgium. If the report In
tends to convey the meaning that ths
entire staff of the German right has
been sent back across the Belgian bor
der, It foreshadows a further nnd Im
mediate retreat of the German lino.
Another meaning read into the report,
however, la that General von Kluk has
been relieved as commander of his
army on the German right, which has
been forced back before the attacks
of the British and French forces.
The army under the German Crown
I'rince is said to have prepared a sec
ond line of defensive works to the rear
of its present position and to be ready
to drop back to them. The whole Ger
man line has constructed n series of
elaborate Intrenchments and small
forts, which virtually reach from
Noyon to the German border. On the
heights of Pommlers they have con
structed bomb-proof bhelters with sub
terranoan puFsascs, affording commu
nication to the rear. From these
heights their guns are bombarding the
French line.
The failure of the German rein
forcements sent to aid General von
Kluk to break down the British
French opposition emphasized, the ex.
perts soy. the fact that tho Germans
were at tho "end of their string." To
lay this belief Is confirmed by tho an
nouncement that the German right
wins is being pushed back at a rate of
nearly four miles a. day. This speed Is
expected to be acceleiated now that
the Germans twe been driven from
their strongest trenches.

That the main Russian at my has

ing against the chief Austrian positions
was tho substane,! of today's Wni Ofllce
statement. It announced that the opeia

there has not been encounered any op
position that has required any chango
In tho original plan of campaign.
It !s considered ceitaln that the real
resistance en a latge ncalu will he en
countered along the lines of the Cracow
fortifications. There tho Austrian re
servea havo hern massed and heavily
reinforced by the German landwebr corpn,
which havo been specially detailed for

eighteen still hold out. It was Mated at

At tho request of the Austrlar com
mander at PMemysl, General Von Col

clared lato yesterday to permit of the
departure of the iion-combatanti, who
wished to leae. Many decided to re

strongest In the world. It Is understood
that the garrison has supplies sufficient
