Some of the mines have drifted to the

In tho official statement sent to Vienna,
It Is pointed out that man) Italian fish

Member of British Coips Describes
Engagement of Great Battle.
LONDON. Sept SO.
A letter from i(n olllcet ot the Jlo)nl
Tl) Ing Corps, under date of September
4, describing a view from nn aeroplana
of the battle eastward of Paris, sa)s:
"Yesterday I was up for reconnals
sanco over this huge battle I bet It
will be remembered as tho biggest in
lustor). It extends from Compelgne
right away to Belfort.
' We flew at .' o'clock In the evening.
Al that time the British guns all opened
fire together Trom a height of G000 feet
I baw n sight which t hope It will never
be my lot to see again. The woods and
hills were Utcrnll) out to ribbons nil
along the south of l.aon. It was mai
velous, watching hundreds of sheila
bursting below one to the right and to
the left for miles, and then to see the
liei man guns repl)lng.
"1 fear there will be a lot mote awful
fighting before this show end, but wi
are certnin It will cml with us on top,
although we all had our doubts about
thtce weeks ago during that awful ic
treat "
I Writing again on September 19, the
oillcer sa)s.
'The huge battle still Is going on Our
midlines nfter being out nil day still
bring in the tame news. The Germans
have got into one of the strongest posi
tions possible Foitunately. reinforce
ments are inlvlng and are coming up
on the German right at Solssons.
"I simply crae for cigarettes Thev

WAR IS MAKING
NEW GEOGRAPHY,
WRITER ASSERTS
Peace, as Mapmaker, Will
Alter Many National
Frontiers Some Possible
Changes.
LONDON-, Sept SO.
Austin AVcst, correspondent of tho
Dally Chronicle, in discussing possible
changes of frontiers when the war is
over, has the fellow ing to say under a
Milan date line:
"As for Hkel) changes In the map ot
the world at tho end of the war, I think
It probable that Great Britain will take
over the German colonics, giving Spain
and Portugal a sharo therein, as a re
ward for their neutralll).
"Russia will limit her demands to
CJallcla, at the same time settling guar
antees for the entire Independence ot the
four Balkan States Since Russia has
no Interest In the Adilatlc pioblcm and,
moreover, cherishes a warm friendship
with Hal), she will not offer opposition
to nn Italian protectorate over Albania.
In addition there will be a ratification of
Italy's noitherr frontiers on a national
racial basis.
"I think FranVe will resume possession
of Alasce-Lorralue and the Palatinate,
whllo Austria will remain a German
State and form a part of the Germanic
confederation
"This will raise the question whether
the German Umporor shall be mcrel)
King of Prussia or nlso King of Austria
It seems to me quite unllkel) that the
United Stntes will Intervene, and If
Sweden should assert herself on behalf
ot Germanv she would find her action
neutralized by that of N'orwa) and Denmark."
AGENTS OF KAISER
REPORTED WORKING
IN ENGLISH SOCIETY
Spies Said to Be Mingling
With High War Officials.
Their Work Scorned by
Military Expert.
LOUDON, Sept. 30 Tlio charge that
Germany has Bont hundreds of spies Into
nnglnnd to movo In tho best society and
mingle with those close to the Admiralty,
War Ofllce and Foreign Ofllce was mado
today by tho Times In an nrtlcle by Its
military expert. Colonel Charles Beplng
ton. This nrtldo and the ch.nges which the
Times imnkcA follow closely the first ref
erences of First Lord of the Admiralty
Winston Churchill to "Gorman Ueuten
ants, who liavo been living In nnglnnd
for years nnd who now are taking nd
antnge of British hospitality to spread
their nets of espionage."
Accutdlng to Colonel Itcplnston, Eng
land has been Infested with German spies
for jears, but there are more here now
thnn over before, and the German Gov
ernment Ii offering high pay to men and
women of education, culture and com
manding appearance who can mingle with
omclol! ot tho British Government In
tho highest circles of .society.
In part Colonel Heplngton says:
"The most dangerous of theso spies
are not the lieutenants, but highly placed
persons who move In good society nnd
nlso In the realms of finance. Tho Ger
man isjstcm extends to nil classes.
Twenty ears ago some of our officers
camo Into touch with the German In
telligence service nnd learned a great
deal about It. L'ven nt Hint time the net
was large and was so widespread that It
extended oven to America, where agents
acted tn tho guise of business men
"Despite Its fervid activity, I havo not
a veiy high opinion of the German In
telligence s)stem, Tho failure of this
department to learn until August 20 that
there was a British army In Franco Is
the best proof of Its Incapacity."

MENUS A PROBLEM '.
FOR COMMISSARIAT
DURING WAR TIME ;
i
1 I
French Troopers Havd
Varied and Liberal Fare
and Each Soldier Carries
Emergency Ration.
rARIS, Sept. M.
Every man In the French army carries
with him one day's reserve rations, which
may only be used In caso of extreme
urgency. They consist of 30 grammtg
(10Vi ounces) ot war biscuit, 30 grammti
of preserved meat, 60 grammes of con
densed soup, 33 grammes of coffee, M
grammes of sugar, Thero Is also a litre
of brandy for every 16 men.
The food served out dally consists of
700 grammes of bread, 100 grammes of
rice or haricot beans, 24 grammes of cof
fee, 32 grammes of sugar, bacon, silt,
nnd 600 grammes of frcsli meat or SOO
grammes of preserved meat, with Eo
grammes of puree do legumes to mak
soup.
Beyond this, whenever possible, pro-'
visions aro bought on tho spot by the
o nicer s In command, such as vegetable,
various seasonings, nnd sometimes wine
ftevitunllzlng Is carried out as fur as
possible bv rail. Tho dlfflculty Is that the
regiments aro continually changing their
quarters, nnd thus the commissariat h
dlfflculty in finding them. To simplify
matleis each day a special station Is
chosen for each army corps. The regi
mental transport goes every day to this
station nnd receives two days' provisions,
so that thero Is always an abundance of
reserve supplies.
If the rnllway Is not available suppllu
are provided by motor transport. If
motor trnnsport falls In a day or two
the corps d'orfnee draws on Its stock
of provisions, which aro good for four
days. The organization te based on a
system of enormous depots at Important
rnllway centres. At each of them hun
dreds of thousands of rations of bread,
are baked every day and supplies of all
kinds are accumulated.
Herds of cattle are driven some dis
tance In the rear of each army corps,
and rested before slaughtering. The dally
consumption of each army corps Is 120
head of cattle, and the meat Is carrlid
to the front by Paris motor omnibuses.
Since the beginning of tho campaign the
Commissariat Department has worked
without a hitch.
