31,000 Indian Troops
at Front With British
London, Sept. 10. Lord Kitchener's
"unknown factor," heretofore held to
bp a great secret, which has so altered
the situation at the front in Franco, is
now known to hp Hip arrival of forces
from India. Two divisions of infantry
and a brigade of cavalry (about 31,000
mrnl constitute these forces. A dozen
Indian potentates were selected to ac
company this expeditionary force. These
include Sir Pertab Singh, Sir Ganga
Bahadur. Maharaja of Hikanir and Sir
Bhuplndra Singh, Ma hara.in or Patiala.
In the House of t'ommons yesterday
afternoon C. Roberts, one of the under
secretaries of the Colonial Department,
read a message from the Viceroy of
India, which said that the rulers of the
Indian native States, nearly 700 in
number, had with one accord rallied.to
the fiefen.se of the empire with per
sonal offers of service as well as the
resources of their States.
One Indian chief 70 years of ace. has
demanded the right to render military
service along with his nephew, a youth
of 16. who is now with the expedition
ary force. Offers of troops, horses,
money and even jewels had rolled in'
the Viceroy said. The Dalai Lamat of
Tibet had offered a thousand soldiers to
aid the empire, and thousands of llamas
were praying daily for the success of
the British forces and for the repose
of the souls of the dead In addition to
sending men and money, some of the
native rulers of India are equipping a
hospital ship. Of the expeditionary
force W. W. Roberts said that it con
tained, besides units of the regular
army, contingents of the Imperial Ser
vice troops maintained in the larger
States of India. From twelve of these
States the Viceroy accepted contin
gents of cavalry. Infantry, sappers and
transports besides a camel corps from
Tilkanlr.
K.nrgre Gifts of Moner
The Maharaja of Mysore, he said, had
placed fifty lacs of rupees (about Sl.-
fiOO.000), at the disposal of the Govern
ment in connection with the expendi
ture for the expeditionary force.

Berlin but bring; Austria to sue for
peace.
The armies In the west seem as If
pausing to watch the fateful drama
in Gallcia, the outcome of which may
have a tremendous effect on the plans
of the invaders in the western theater
of war, as well as upon the allies
themselves in (hat region.
The news from Belgium Indicates
that the Hermans are preparing for
eventualities by rushing reinforce
ments southward. The first definite
indication of tills movement is given
in a dispatch from Belgium which re
later that the German force that has
been waiting outside Ghent for the
levy of provisions demanded from that
city has left liurrlpdly in a southeast
erly direction.
May Arrive Too Late
England had looked hopefully for
the Russian "steam roller" to get un
day way, but the impetus which the
Russian army in the eastern theater
of the war already has acquired has
surprised even tile military experts.
The movement of the Russian advance
has been so speedy that the German
divisions advancing on the Vistula are
hardly likely to arrive In time to as
sist their sorely pressed ally In Call
da.
Reports from Petrograd indicate
that the Russian armies already are
driving the Germans before them on
the western hank of the Vistula. In
this region the only base left for a
sallying point for the Austrian and
German forces is Cracow, the old
capital of the Kingdom of Poland,
situated in Galicia not more than thir
ty miles from the frontier of Silesia.
If this place falls before the onslaught
of the Russians, it is felt In London
that the annihilation of the Austro-
German armies in the southeast may
result.
The Russian advance now occupies
almost a straight line from Koenigs
berg on the Baltic in East Prussia, to
Cracow. Tf Austria is dispposed of
a tremendous battle line from 200 to
HOO miles long may sweep into the
German empire.
Many English breakfasts went un
tasted this morning while the people
read the graphic account by Field
Marshal Sir John French, of the heroic
fight made by the British expedition
ary force to keep from beins annihi
lated. Like a wild cat pursued by
hounds the British force backed stub
bornly towardSAthe river Olse, con
stantly showing teeth but realizing
that it must attain the river or per
ish. General French's frank confes
sion has fallen like a bombshell on the
English public, who up to the present
time have not been permitted to
know how hard pressed their army
has been.
The feeling of optimism which has
prevailed In England during; the last
twent-four hours has had only one
check; this was the report of the
wreck of the steamer Oceanio.
P. R. R. MAY CUT
WAGES ID SALARIES
[Continued From First Pago]
in* of the directors of the Pennsyl
vania railroad in Philadelphia which
usually would have been held yester
day. Because of the absence of Pres
ident Samuel Rea and the fact that
other directors are still out of that
city no meeting was called, so the
mutter cannot come before the board
until two weeks hence. If the rail
roads are forced to such drastic action
it is likely that the Pennsylvania will
take lead and the other carriers
follow, as lias been the case in many
oilier movements In which the Penn
sylvania took the initiative.
The railroads are faced with a sit
uation unparalleled in their history.
Taxes and wages are greater than ever
before in American railroad opera
tions. while gross revenues, which
have been falling off for some months,
have taken a sharp drop, due to the
European conflict, which has retarded
the movement of imports and exports.
Wages May Come Down
The award in the conductors' and
trainmen's wage case expires October
1. The awards In the eases of the en
gineers and firement, both of which
were to run one year from date or
rendering have expired. Thus in a
few weeks the railroads which were
included In the wage agreements will
be free to reduce wages if such action
is found imperative. On the Pennsyl
vania it is customary to give thirty
days' notice of any change in wage
schedules. If a reduction is made it
is believed it will bo extended to evcrv
one in service, from the president
down to the employes on the lowest
rung of the railroad ladder.

Frederick lost 120,000 men in the re
cent Oaliclan battles, or one-fourth of

"The Germans are marching south

Russian Forces Move
Against Austrian Troops
' fly /issociatcd Press
London, Sept. 10, 4.55 a. m—Tele
graphing from Petrograd the Morn
., s l ' orr °sPondent says:
"The Russian armies are moving
forward, driving the Germans before
them on the western bank of the Vis
tula river. The retiring Germans have
Cracow, behind them on which to
sally.
"When Austria is disposed of Rus
,sla will immediately begin a west
ward march on a front 200 miles wide
that will sweep like a tidal wave
across the German empire.
"The key to the whole tactical situ
ation is at Sawa, where the Germans
are making a desperate struggle to
prevent the Russian advance move
ment. At the approach of the Car
pathians are extensive marshes. Upon
this natural death trap It is the object
ot the Russians to drive the enemv'fi
entire force."
Line of Communication
Is Severed by Allies
By Associiitril Press
London. Sept. 10, 2.10 a. m.—Tho
correspondent of the Dully Telegraph
in France, describing the turn of the
tide in favor of the allied forces, says:
"From trustworthy sources it is re
ported that we have already cut part
of the German line of communication
in the east, and it seems highly prob
able that we shall soon be able to
drive them back upon their ammuni
tion and supply column.
"It now seems certain that the
German advance, which so scared us
last week, was the throwing forward
of a screen of cavalry to mask the
enemy's flanking movement eastward,
and that they had no present intention
of investing Paris.
"While the great battle is raging
to the eastward of Paris, the western
region of France is gradually belos
relieved of German*."
