GERMANS NEAR PARIS
Sacrif C 3 Thousands of Lives
But Move Onward
ALLIED ARMIES STILL INTACT
Paris, Sept 3.—The seat of French
government has been transferred from
Paris to Bordeaux. The government
issued this morning through the min
istry of the interior a proclamation
bringing this to the knowledge of the
people of Paris and giving the reasons
for the change. The significant fea
ture is that Paris is soon to become
sort of pivot in the army maneuvers
between the allied armies and the Ger
mans. For this reason the govern
ment naturally cannot remain here.
The proclamation reads:
"Frenchmen: For several days our
heroic troops have been engaged in
fierce combats with the enemy. Tha
courage of our soldiers lias won for
them several marked advantages but
in the north the pressure of the Ger
man forces compelled us to retreat.
This situation forces the president of
the republic and the government to a
sad decision. In order to safeguard
the national interests the duty of the
public powers is to go away from
Paris for the moment. Under the com
mand of its chief, the French army,
full of courage and spirit, will defend
against the invader the capital and
its patriotic population. But the war
must be pursued at the same time on
the rest of French territory.
"None of our armies has been
broken. If some of them have suf
fered only too evident losses, the gaps
in the ranks have been filled up im
mediately from the waiting reserve
forces while the calling out of a new
class of recruits brings us today new
resources in men and energy.
"To give to this formidable strug
gle all its vigor and efficacy it is indis
pensable that the government retain
the mastery of its own action. It asks
the deputies to accompany it in order
to form in the face of the enemy a
center of national unity.
"The government leaves Paris only
after having assured the defense of
the city and the fortified stronghold
of Paris by all means in its power.
"Frenchmen, be you all worthy of
these tragic circumstances. We will
win final victory. We will obtain it
by our unrelenting will, by our en
durance, by our tenacity. The nation
which does not desire to perish and
which does not retreat before suffer
ing or sacrifice is sure to conquer."
The German right has forced the
allies back as far as Compiegne, oniy
fifty miles from Paris. But at Com
piegne the Germans met with tw.)
crushing defeats. Twelve thousand
of the kaiser's cavalrymen were an
nihilated by the French artillery near
the town of Compeigne while English
cavalrymen met a second corps of the
kaiser's horsemen in battle at the
forest of Compiegne and defeated
them, capturing ten German guns.
The battle line of the allies' left
wing extending from Montdidier to tile
forest of Compiegne, ranging from
fifty-five to sixty-five miles from the
outer defenses of Paris, fighting on the
French left being considerably nearer
Paris than yesterday.
The heaviest fighting was reported
from Montdidier, where the German
infantry in great strength is making
a desperate effort to break through
the allied lines. The object of tne
Germans apparently is to break
through the enemy's center, separat
ing the allies into tw T o forces.
The Germans also were reported to
be striving to flank the French left
and turn it back on the center. The
success of such a move would give
a portion of the German army a road
to the Paris forts, while the rest held
off the main army of the allies.
The war office issued the following
summary of the situation:
"In the north there are no signs
of hostile troops at Arras, Lille, Beth
une and Douai. Several German corps
in Belgium are moving east into Ger
many.
"In Lorraine our advance continues
on the right bank of the Sanon. In

London. Sept. 3. —The Germans are
reported to be strongly fortifying at
Brussels, evidently fearing an uprising
of the people. They have issued an
order that in case of any effort to re
sist the German authorities they will
train their guns upon the city. Ant
werp is being prepared for a state of
siege and the military governor has
ordered all people who have not been
domiciled there a month to leave.
A dispatch via Rotterdam from
Berlin says that the siege of Antwerp
will begin immediately. It is believed
this is an effort to drag Holland into
the war, as the English will be com
pelled to take part in the defense.
Peking. China, Sept. 3.—Japan has
landed between 10.000 and 15,000
troops from eighteen transports at
Lungkow, a newly opened port, about,
ten miles north of Tsingtau. This is
declared here to have been done in
violation of China's neutrality.

Abbeville, Sept. 3. —Georges Terpen,

whom have been shot. Near Malines
he killed one Uhlan and captured an
other, although he was suffering from
a broken arm.
Two fellow boy scouts, sixteen and
seventeen years old, w ere executed by
the Germans on the same day. Terpen
declares that the only weapou he used
against the German soldieis was a
long knife. He has already twice
pierced the German lines.
Rewarded For Killing Prince.
London, Sept. 3. —The shot which
resulted in the death of Prince Von
Buelow, one of the German generals,
was fired by a Belgian private, Ros
seau, who has since been decorated
by King Albert. Rosseau was lying
wounded among a group of comrades
when he saw a German officer study
ing a map. Picking up a rifle from
beside him Rosseau fired at this of
ficer and wounded him mortally. The
officer subsequently proved to be
Prince Von Buelow.

Petrograd (St. Petersburg), Sept. 3.
—The following official communica
tion was issued by the Russiau war
office:
"After a battle lasting seven days,
the Russian army seized he>avily for
tified positions around Lemberg, capi
tal of Galicia, in Austria Hungary,
about teu or twelve miles from the
town. The Russian troops then ad
vanced toward the principal forts.
"Following a battle which was
fiercely contested, the Austriaus were
obliged to retreat in disorder, aban
doning heavy and light guns, parks of
artillery and field kitchens.
"Our advance guard and cavalry
pursued the eueuiy, who suffered
enormous losses in killed, wounded
and prisoners."*
The official statement adds that the
commander of the Austrian division,
the commander of a brigade and tlu
chief of staff of the divisiou were
killed. Of the 4,000 men made prison
ers 600 had been wounded.
The Russians also captured twenty
guns and the flag of the Sixty-fifth
regiment.
London, Sept. 3.—Advices have be- :i
received here from Petrograd to the
effect that the Russian general stall
frankly confesses to disaster to two
army corps, including the loss of
three generals.
General Samsoniv, one of the Rus
sian commanders reported killed, was
considered one of Russia's most
capable and brilliant generals. H
greatly distinguished himself in the
Russo-Japanese war where he com
manded a division of Siberian Cos
sacks.
The other two lost commanders were
General .Martos, commander of an
army corps, and General Pestiticli, at
tached to the general stuff.
The following official announcement
was made public here:
"Our fori es in invading Galicia have
continued their advance in the direc
tion of Lemberg. The enemy fell
back gradually before our troops. We
captured some cannon, some rapid fire
guns and some caissons.
"Near Guila and Lipa the enemy oc
cupied a strong position of such
natural strength that it was consid
ered impregnable. They also desper
ately attempted to stop our advance
by a flanking attack.
"We repulsed the Austrians, inflict
ing severe losses. We buried on th<*
battlefield 14,600 Austrian dead, cap
tured a flag and thirty-two guns and a
quantity of supplies, and made many
prisoners.
"On the south front, in the War
saw district, all the Austrian attacks
have been repelled. Assuming' the
offensive on our right wing we forced
the Austrians to retreat, capturing
three cannon, ten rapid fire guns and
over 1,000 prisoners. According to
statements made by the latter the Aus
triaxi losses were heavy."
CLAYTON BILL PASSES
Senate Inserts Declaration That Labor
is Not Merchandise.
Washington, Sept. 3. —The Clayton
bill, the second and last of the admin
istration trust measures to be con
sidered at this session, passed the
senate by a vote of 46 to 16. Seven
Republicans and one Progressive
voted for the bill. Sixteen Republi
cans voted against it. Not a Demo
crat was recorded against it.
The section exempting labor unions
from the anti-trust laws is section 7.

suggestion of Senator Cummins, a
declaration intended to dignify human
labor and emphasize its exemption.
Section 7 as finally adopted is as
follows:
"The labor of a human being is not
a commodity or article of commerce,
and nothing contained in the anti-trust
laws shall be construed to forbid the
existence and operation of labor, agr :
