The third week of the bntllo of the JAlsne failed to decldo the struggle In f northern France. The Allies' nankins Movements on both wings Increased the laone; battle tine to 160 miles. On tho east rn end tho Germans crossed the Mouse .tat SL Mlhlol, threatening to pierce the JVerdun-Toul forts, but wero unable to Oiold tho advantage.

The German forward movement Into Poland wns checked In a. seven days' battle from the Nlomen lUvor on tho north to the Klelco provlnco on the west lAftcr Ineffectual attempts to storm Os nowlecz and other fortllled places, the Kaiser's forces wero compelled to rotieat nil along tho lino. Those Russian suc cesses and the possibility of Invasion, both of Prussia on the north and Silesia on the southwest, have set the Kntser's Oeneral Start at work fortifying tho en tire line from Thorn to Kallscz to protect Sreslau and Berlin. Russian forces have moved through Onllcla In two parallel columns. Tho northern division took Tarnou on Wed nesday and has advanced over the 50 miles separating this Important railway centre from Cracow, Austria's last stronghold In Gallcla. Latest reports In dloato the beginning of a great battle tin tho outer line of defense. The southern column has engaged In minor actions against tho Austrlans, who have drawn acK to tho Wlsloka River. Heavy Ger- man reinforcements, said to consist of veterans from tho French zone of war, have been hurried to Cracow. The Rus sians havo made a successful passage of tho Carpathians, which opens Hungary to Invasion. The Hungarian national troops have been mobilized to protect Budapest, which lies only 110 mites from tho captured passes. In the bombardment f Przemysl, garrison sorties have been repulsed and tho town capturod. The Austrian Government, fearing a lego of Vienna by the Russians. clthr Srom southern Gnllcla or through the Carpathians, has transferred tho capital , to Prague, near the German frontier. Scmlln, across tho Danube from Bol ' grade, has been occupied by the Servians, r thus ending tho Austrian bombardment , of tho Serb capital. Austrlans have made i Ineffectual attempts to cross the Drina nnd Save Rivers into StvU. heavy losses following each repulse. A bloody battle attended an Austrian endeavor to out flank a Servian force proceeding against Xosnla. The progress of the Servian-Montenegrin advance on Sarajevo, the Bos nian capital, has been marked, a number of towns In the vicinity having been taken by storm. Tslng-Tao, on the German leasehold of Klao-Chau, has been subjected to heavy attacfl by the Anglo-Japanese forces. Japanese gunboats surprised thi outskirts of the town nnd destroyed the Get man barracks. The Japanese, however, lost heavily. The bombardment by fleet and aircraft has damaged the German forts trlously, fires have broken out In several parts of the city and food is scarce. Sur render Is believed imminent. Naval operations during the week were confined to depredations upon shipping', German patrols apparently doing lb,9 greatest damage. The Emden alone wink nve British chips in the liny of Bengal.

Turkey has abated somewhat in Its warlike agitations, although the abros- tlon of Its foreign concessions, followed bV protests from certain of the smaller European nations, is regarded as a possi ble casus belli. This will depend largely (upon the treatment of foreigners within tha Pttoman Empire. China is reported to have begun operations to block the use of its railroads by Japanese troops moving upon the Ger man leasehold of KUto-Cbau. PEACE IN MEXICO? Tbe quarrel between "First ChUf" Car- rasxa and "Psncho"' Villa seemed likely, tb first part of the week, to plunge Mexico again Into bloody revolution. The itults of peace conferences attended by t representatives of the two generals and y other I'onstitutionaUst leaders indi cate, however that itj may be found taut at the present dif trTOUea without r- ..KlilUry coonii at tho conference In Zacatecas that active hostilities should be suspended for the present, nnd plans were made for a meeting of Constitutionalist generals In Aguas Callentes on October 6, this meet ing to bo followed Mva days later by a national peace convention In Mexico City, The dato of the prospective evacuation of Vera Cruz has undoubtedly been post poned by reason of tho Villa revolt. The United States will not "pull up stakes" at Vera Cruz until proper arrangements can be made with responsible Mexican author ities for the transfer of funds collected at Vera Cruz and tho surrender of the custom house to some one to bo desig nated by the Mexican Central Govern ment. General Zapata. Villa's ally, has Informed General Funston vlhat any transfer of authority or funds to Car ranza would not be recognized by the Villlstas. Villa himself, however, has de clared that he desires our Immediate withdrawal from Mexico. Says the Chicago Herald! "It Is pos sible that the entire history of the grow ing feud between Villa nnd Carranza has not been totd. It would be Interest ing to know what American Influences In favor of Intervention havo worked to mako trouble between Ula and carran za and thus Impede the efforts to bring peace to Mexico." Tho opinion of tho "Washington Times Is that "Mexico's future lies between Villa and the civil administration that shall come Into power. Villa Is tho Iron flst. Ho la determined, If his protestations may be believed, to have an Intelligent and progressive civil government; and when he gets It, to put the military forco at Its back and stand firmly by It. That Is Just what Mexico needs." Tho New York Times says: "Tho light ing spirit of the Mexicans, which Por ftrlo Diaz held in check 50 years, must be satisfied soma day. Meanwhile our troops remain at Vera Cruz, as a for midable hint to both Obregon and Villa that Americans must be protected by both sides." Tho Grand Rapids Press believes that "continued possession of Vera Cruz Is not only politically sound, but also hu mane. The city Is now a haven for all those who have Incurred tho Ire of the Constitutionalists, nnd If revolution again envelops Mexico tho population of refu gees will grow enormously. And all who come will have a tasto of the security which obtains under tho Stars and Stripes. However much tho Mclxcans hate us, they must eventually como to respect our vic tories over dirt, disease nnd disorder In the city of Vera Cruz." The Detroit Free Press thinks that tho week's events show that Mexico has re turned to "normal conditions." "There Is no question of legal methods In the cartel sent by Villa to Carranza. It Is a notice from one bandit chief to another to get out or be put out. Of course, Villa has certain thlngR to say concerning Con stitutionalism and liberty and tho rights of the people, and these utterances may deceive some persons in the United States, but In Mexico they will fool only tho most unwary. They are no more than conventional formalities, couched In forms borrowed from the United States. They arc so much Jargon, having form without spirit. The relapse Is practically complete. It Is only when one begins to understand that this Is the real situ ation in Mexico; that In truth Mexico -From tht Los Ansl Expren. THE HAUNTED CHAIR is scarre'y oven feudal in Its state of ad vancement; that the real meaning of llb ertv Is less understood there thnn In Russia It Is only when one begins to re alize all this that he can hope to get a graep of the problems and conditions be low the Itlo Grande."

Divergent Opinions on Parties and Candidates. In the New York State primaries held Monday the following candidates were nominated for the leading places on the tickets of the principal parties: For Governor, Murtin H. Glynn, Demo crat; Charles II. Whitman, Republican; Frederick M. Davenport. Progressive. For United States Senator: Jnmcs IV. Gerard, Democrat; James W. Wnds worth. Republican; Balnbrldge Colby, Progressive. The Boston Herald comments: "The State-wldo primary brought to pass In New York, ns tho culmination of efforts running through years, on the first for mal trial resulted In tho sanTe old way. The nominees of tho Democrutlc party are those selected by Mr. Murphy, al though In obvious iccognltlon of the need of putting out a good front in this ctitical year. The nominees of the Re publican party are the men for whom Mr. Barnes, of Albany, voted." Tho Springfield Republican believes that "No one of the three parties can be said, on the results of the New York primaries, to have qulto put Its best foot forward." "On the Issue of Independence." says the New York World, "the 'Whitman record Is far better than the Glynn rec ord." To which the New York Times rejoins- "When, where and how has Mr. Whit man ever given any Indication whatever of independence in politics? Ho may be a perfect mlrncle of Independence, but what is there in his record to show either that he Is or he Isn't?" The New York Sun, usually considered a sure-enough Republican paper, favore Glvnn: "The Sun believe that the right man for the occasion appears in the per son of Martin II. Glynn, because both as Comptroller nnd as Governor he has already proved his special fitness toi the work that 1 cut out for the next Administration at Albany. As Mr. Tilden's sound iews of finance and taxa tion and practical methods of bringing relief to overweighted taxpayers drew to him the support and votes of thousands of citizens who cared first of all for honest and economical government, so should Governor Glynn's record and pro gram seem mighty attractive to benslble New Yorkers of every political de scription." The New York Evening Post remarks: "With at least a respectable United States Senator assured, no matter which party wins, the main Interest will centre in the Governorship. All will depend upon the way In which, between now and election day, Governor Glynn nnd Mr. Whitman succeed In impressing the voters by demonstrated strength of char acter and political conviction." The view of the New York Tribune Is very different: "Whitman can win if he gets tho normal nntl-Tammany vote. He will get a good Republiacn vote certainly. 7 la ns fr " ' 'Ssll l' nt I Ira ANiMHsJf Tt r-i' Sn0lJN"J " l Wl?tfi trt we (sg 0 'J I iAw mis I I ja-Hi I tJ 5- ""-tojs&x " I EYei-iD I "i ' 11iMV,, "gt I CLUTTER- V It I I illT 1100a, t? r .23; I"!

Mr. Whitman must do his utmost to bring about that union, and honest voters must help him, without hnlr-spllttlng about party lines or per sonalities," Frederick C.

He appointed twenty-nine prominent Phlladelphlans as an auxiliary committee to act in an ad visory capacity to the State Committee. A unique plan for booming the cause of Doctor Brumbaugh has been adopted at his headquarters In the Lincoln Build ing. A large bulletin board in front of tho building bears the words, "News From The Front." This attracts passers by, who find reports from various parts of Pennsylvania showing the steadily In creasing sentiment for Doctor Brum baugh. COMMENT ON CONGRESS The outstanding events of tho week In Washington were as follows: President Wilson consented to the post ponement of the ship purchase bill, but -From the New York TriSJ;. " Insisted that It bo taken up at the next session. Senator Reed, In a two-day speech, denounced the Clayton anti-trust bill, s repotted by the conferees, and called It a weak surrender to tho trusts. The amended rlvera and harbors bill, carrying a JM,000,000 appropriation, was passed by the House and sent to tho President for his approval. Tho Jones Philippine bill, providing for a larger measure of self-frovernment for the Islands, had the right c? way In the House thl week and roused bitter de bate. The President decided In favor of a plan whereby Congress should adjourn October IS, Instead of recessing. It Is not surprising that Democratic lenders In Congress, with a national elec tion only a month away, should be fear ful of laying war taxes. Nor Is It sur prising to learn that In tho Judgment of tho Washington correspondents 'all the Influence of President Wilson will have to be exerted to get through any war tax legislation at this time." Tho country waits to hear from Mr. Wilson, In figures that prove tho case for war taxes, Chicago Herald. Republican Congressmen have overcome their party prejudice at times and helped to enact good legislation during the Dem ocratic regime of Wilson. Howover, the Democratic record has been so Invulner able thnt Republicans have been hard put to find a weak spot In the Democratic armor. Congress has shown both ability and diligence and achievements In two years have been no less than enormous. Milwaukee Journal. As might havo been expected, the war tax bill passed by the Houso of Repre sentatives reveals a furtlvo sympathy for the South. It was to bo expected, be cause the South controls tho Government at present and Is In position to take care of Its own Interests.

The Republicans havo a good fighting lssuo here nnd the nppcnl to the past Js n hopeless defense for their adversaries. What voters will consider Is how did tho Domocrats meet their own problems; how, cspoclally after their yeais of "denouncing" Republican "extravagance," did they meet tho chal lenge to economize? Their record on the pork barrel Is a sad answer to these In terrogatories. Chicago Tribune. The President said that the shipping bill Is necessary for "the development of new trade routes which It was certain would not bo devolopcd by private capital, but which ought to be developed because of the cortalnty of success In tho near future." It would seem as though one ot these certainties killed the other. If success Is certain private capital will see It ns soon as Government. The certainty thnt private enterprise would avoid cer tain success Is a curious sort of certainty. The President does not mention other certainties nt lenst as certain ns those attributed to his discovery, One Is that If the Government enters Into the busi ness private capital will stay out In larger amount than Government capital f poootr-vviiLW-n; ii UKiriKir6, i J Vu ex HAVE To - J TO COME OUT.

Opponents of the bill for the Govern ment purchase of ships must be heart rued by the announcement that Presi dent Wilson no longer considers It an emergency measure, and admits that there are sufficient ships to caro for tho nrpkpnt exnort trade. Ills stand Is de clared by one interviewer to be simply that there Is nn undeveloped export trade which the United States should seek.
