they must remain nn the de

Ing up their assaults, feeling out tho
weak place In the line.
On tho extreme French right, ao.
cording to the latest Information, the
Hermans arc giving ground before tho
French at the northern part nf the
French right where It Joins the centre,
but It has been found Impossible to
prevent the advance of the defmans

able to cross the river. livery time
they string their pontoons the French
artillery, which commands every point,

The German lino now begins at
Mons, in Uelghim, swings west to St.
Amand, south through Cafnbrai, St.
mediately north of the Alsne, as the po
sition to which they have fallen back
! infinitely stronger. The key to tho
position of the German risht Is a nat- '
ural horseshoe of stone quarries ex- ,
tending around the oise from Glrau- '
mont and Anthetilt to Machcmok. The ,
ivnoio position is marked by Mom
Gauclon, opposite ComnU-gnc, from
which the steen sides of a timirnn rv.
tend toward tho northeast and tho
southeast.
There seems to be evidence for tho
belief that General Joffre, the French
eommandef.m.ehlef, and Field Mar
shal Sir John French, tho Urltish
commander, are rallying all their
strength for a final effort against tho
German lines. Every available man
is being sent to the front, while the

The schemes .,f the German General

I.OXDOX, Sept. K.
London is nervous over the constantly
inereislnjr raids of tho German Zeppelin
balloons, and there Is n feeling of appre
hension that .1 flight may be made over
this city.
The precautions taken by tho Govern
ment, f-uch a.s the ceaseless bwlng of
i?ear hliKhts over the city at nglht, the
darkening of the streets and the patrols
of aeroplanes by day have not tended
to decrease the fears of the people.
News of recent fllBht of German bal
loons over O.stend, Boulogne and Jut
land make. plain the poss-ibiUty of a Ger
man balloon reeonnnlsance over London.
The for is not that the Germans' will
drop bombs upon tho city, as they did at
Antwerp; the feelinc; of panic, Knlch
would jiiobubly follow the appearance of
u Zeppelin hero would arise from the
heightened possibilities or danger from
the air.
Gcimun balloon raids arc becoming the
busitboo of a blj; part of tho people,
especially since the mornlnf,- papers told
of a German aeronaut dropping bombs
upon the shipbuilding yurd at n-JuloBnc.
It Is easy to equip a Zeppelin with
sufficient file! uml other supplies for a
viuor.) of from 500 to 700 mile3, and the
distance from tho Cierman strongholds
in Uelglum and Franco to London and
return is less thun that. The Admiralty
has ndopiotl strinsent precautions to
protect the coast nnd the warships lying
III the North Sea and Kngilsh Chnnuel.
ALL LIGHTS OCT AT NIGHT.
At night till unneoesenry lights on both
sea an dlund are oxtliigulslied. The sUy
is combed with scurcnllghts nt Intervals
and aeroplanes nro held ready d.iy and
irfght for a itlght aloft to give battle
to an invading uirshlp.
If nh airship raid over Knglish inll
should be attempted hy the Germans,
