SWEEPS SERB SOIL,
EXPERT DECLARES
Military Attache of Local
Consulate Explains Signifi
cance of Present Aggres
sive Campaign Against
Belgrade and Nish.
One of the Important consequences ot
the cnmpalgn waged against the Servians
by the Auatro-IItingnrlfltis lies In the fact
that It will decide whether large forces
of Francis Joseph's troops shall be sent
against the Russians In the north, there
by allowing the Germans to withdraw
troops and send them against the Allies
in the west or bo kept engaged to the
south, according to a statement made to
day by Lieutenant Colonel Maximilian
Orszagh, of the Austro-tlungarlan nrmy
and an attache at the Austro-IIungarlan
Consulate In Philadelphia. In speaking
of the Servian situation, Colonel Orszagh
said that 'few realize the real Importance
of this phase of tlio war.
According to the statement made by
him, UieAustro-Hungarlan forces, hav
ing crossed the Kolubara nivor. will in
part direct their efforts against Belgrade,
which the Servian Government left early
la tho war, while the remaining Austrian
forces will push to the southeast and at
tempt to besiege Nlsh, 'the temporary
Bervlan capital.
In speaking of tho war In this section
and reviewing the progress, of the Aus
trian forces there, Colonel Orszagh said:
"Tho situation in Servla Is not clear to
nil. There have been rriany reports of
the various operations in that section, but
unless-'these nre followed very closely It
Is hard to grasp tho real situation. In
the early stages of tho war the actions
of the Austro-Hungarlans against the
Servians and against tho Montenegrins,
tvho Joined thorn, were confined princi
pally to protecting the borders. "Wo had
but small forces situated in those sec
tions. x
"Our offensive movement against them
began about a month ago. The Servians
had been threatening our frontier. It
was decided to put down their move
ment. Consequently our forcev-were sent
across the Urlna and Save Rivers Into
Servla. Shabatz, a. very Important town,
was the objective. Having taken this the
tirmy divided. Part pushed directly east
nnd took Obrcnovatz, about 10 miles
southwest of Belgrade. Tho other divi
sion pushed southeast, taking Losnltza
and Krupanl, en routo to Valjevo, which
latter place we have but recently in
vested. "The most recent official dispatches
show that both divisions have crossed the
.Kolubara niver. This was a very Im
portant move. Tho division to tho north
is now free to move on Belgrade, the for
mer capital of Servla, which the Servian
Government deserted on our approach,
while the division to tho south will push
to the southeasf, advancing on Nish, tho
temporary capital.
"The great engagements of the other
theatres of the war havo dimmed to a
great extent the real Importance of. the
actions In Servla. The Importance of the
fighting there lies In the fact that should
Servla be defeated by tho Austrlans the
latter can withdraw large forces, which
will be sent against the Russians. These
added forces fighting tho Czar's nrmy
will enable tho Germans to remove large
numbers of their troops now in the east
to the wesftrn theatre and give nn ndded
Impetus to tho campaigns against the
Allies' forces In that section."

POSTBAG FROM
BATTLE FRONT
First-hand Accounts of Land
and Sea Conflicts Told by
the Fighting Soldiers and
Sailors Themselves.
tTne real tear corranondents of the
present European ttritgotc are the
men fn the trenches and the men oil
the quajter deck, Professional iortt'
cm arAnot permitted at the front.
Alt thru know Is what thru can clean
from the icoiitirtcrl ooctiprtnfs of am
bulances taken to the rear. The
Bventno licdger wilt print from time
to time the only In'ilmatc tide of the
war the reflections of soldiers and
sailors in their leltcts home. German
letters, when obtainable, as well as
those of the Allies, will b printed.
The story of the capture of a aerman
spy and his bold but unsuccessful break
for liberty Is told as follows In a letter
written by 11. O. Multon, n Bappor In a
British regiment of engineers:
V'Wo had been Intrenched two days
when n Gorman spy was captured, lie
spoko English as well as I do, and
shouted to us. 'I surrender, I surrender;
take me prisoner.' He was placed In a
ccrner pf the trench, seven feet deep,
and was guarded. He soon began to
chatter and told us his history In such a
phiuslblo manner that wo believed him
Hr told us ho had been In prlvnto Bervlce
as a butler in Surrey nnd Sussex, and
also a waiter In hotels at Brighton.
Liverpool nnd Manchester. He actually
cried when he pulled out of his pocket
tho photo of n girl he said he Intended
ninklng his wife when tho war was over
If ho was Bpared, and begged we would
not take It away from him. He enld
sho was a Lancashire lassie he could
put on the North Country dialect ntl
rlghtt-anrt read portions of a lettor sho
wrote him when he was called up.
"The traitor gavo us a lot of supposed
Information about tho Germans, and
pretended to be or wild as a march hnro
when we Bpoke of their officers. They
wcro everything that wns bad. I must
admit I thought the fellow was genu
ine, and I gavo him some of my rations,
but sevcrni of tho othors had their
doubts. He had been with us threo days
when ho showed himself In his true col
ors. It was pitch dark and raining cats
nnd dogs. Ho Jumped out of the trench
nnd made a dash for the German
trenches, but ho did not get 30 yards
away beforo ho was brought down. Tho
next morning we saw his body lying
where he fell. We went through his
pockets. I got a 'pockctbook and his
girl's photo. I am going to wrlto to her,
an her address Is on tho photo."
A thrilling Incident In the retreat ot
the British from Mo riff. Is described by
Sapper AVells of the Boyal Engineers,
who passes lightly over his own part In
an extraordinary act of herolam.
"Our officer asked for n man to go
with him to blow up a bridge, so that
the Germans could not follow us, and I
went with him," Wells writes.
"Well, to blow a bridgo up we use
guncotton and a wire fuse It Is safe
enough If you tnko your wire well away,
but this tlmo It would not work. Our
men In running back had stepped on tho
wlro so we had to go noarer to the bridge
and try again. Even then It would not
art, so the officer said to me, 'Get out of
tho way. Wells." I said, 'No, I'll go with
you.' Wo were the only two on the bridge
and the Germans were shooting at us, but
our luck was In. Well, we both lay down
and I fired 10 rounds at the guncotton
with my rifle, and he did the same with a
pistol, but It Wouldn't work. If it had
wo should both hnve gone with It, so you
see what a shave we had. We made a
dive back and got some more guncotton,
and were making to have another go
when an officer ordered us back, saying
It was no use trying."
Two French captains of the General
Staff are responsible for a gallant ac
tion during the earlier part of the war.

A friend of theirs related it to an Eng
lish correspondent.
"During the night they were In a
train when the German cavalry arrived.
They Immediately organized the defense
of ft bridge with the aid of some Terri
torials stationed on the railway line.
This bridge they held for two hours a
miniature Thermopylae under rifle fire,
mitrailleuse Are, and, finally, guns nt
200 yards and they got away nt the end
with some men,"
War Is no longer heroic! It Is Just nat
ural to bo brave! Nor li bravery con
fined to the military. At l.a Neuvevlllc
there was n biavo civilian, whose cour
age saved his life, says a Tarls Journal.
The town wns occupied by Bavarians
Forty camo crowding Into where the
civilian sat reading quietly, and with
threats accused him ot having calum
niated tho Emperor
"I will not tell you what the French
nnd I think of your Kmperor," tho
Frenchman replied. "Veto nre
masters here. Act accordingly. Jly
house, my cellars, nil belong to you. In
virtue ot the rights of the strongest. As
far as I am concerned, I nm ready to
sacrifice my goods, my liberty, my life.
Do ni you please!" The Bavarians
took everything but the life.
While there Is such spirit In France
the German legions enn never prevail.
The new France Is to be found In every
home, In every heart.
Extract from n letter written by a
young French officer In the fighting line
nenr Rhelms:
We are face to face, the Germain nnd
ourselves, about nvo or six, hundred yards
apart ' They and we. every night. We
dig ourselves further Into the trench. Wo
are, both of us, conducting ft veritable
siege warfare, waiting until on one sldo
or the other an energetic offensive can
bo undertaken. Sometimes the horizon
Is nflro; one henrs the whizz of motors
and one puts one's nose out. It Is a
Taubc; It throws out blazing fireworks to
signal position to their heavy artillery
Two minutes later huge shells pnss over
head fiom four or five miles nway; soon
ours answer thorn, nnd whlstlo over us
In the contrary direction. All we have
to do Is to watch the duel. In contrast,
there are utghtB of real refreshment. Ndt
a sound; Inky blackness. Wo know tho
Germnns nre only 600 yards nway, wo
strain our ears In Vnln. Suddenly a
vague murmuring; It Is they who nre
offering their evening prayer their prayer
after they havo spent a whole day bom
barding the cathedral! After the prayor
some of them Blug laments, llcder, re
frains of tho homeland. Yesterday I
hoard, In their rear, nn accordion ac
companying them The other evening, to
wards 7 o'clock, frightful yells made us
leap up; really like tho yelling of wild
beasts, honrso and guttural, Interrupted
with the blast of bugles, sinister, and
truly lugubrious. ... It Is. two regi
ments who have sprung at us from less
than 60 yards away, who pour suddenly
Into our advanced trenches . . . They
nre stopped only by a mnchlno gun sec
tion pushed forward In haste through tho
obscurity And so, day after day, night
after night.

VACCINE KILLED SON, HE SAYS
Now York Man Betains Lawyer to
Sue the City.
NEW YORK, Nov 20 Richard C W.
Waters, of Flatbush, has retnlncd counsel
to sue the city for damages because the
forcible vaccination of his C-enr-old eon
Chester by a Doard of Health phvslclan,
he says, brought on tctnnus nnd caused
tho boy's death.
"Three days after he was vaccinated
his arm began to swell, and from a
Btrong. henlthy boy ho became sickly,"
said Mr. Waters.
"A week ago he suffered n convulsion
and was sent to Kings Countv Hospital
by Dr. Arthur Eddy, who said he had
tetanus, My boy died Sunday. The vac
cination undoubtedly was tho cause of the
tetanus."
The Coroner's physician found that tho
hoy died of pneumonia and pleurisy,
brought on by tetanus Doctor Eddy said
last night:
"The boy did have tetanus, but I won't
say that vaccination brought It on. Many
things might cause tetanus."
