DELIVER MUG BLOW
London, Oct. 14, 4.15 A. M.—ln a
dispatch dated (Monday fflie ' ' Daily
IMail's" correspondent in Northern
Franco says: •
"The groat German plan to hold the
department of Pas Do Caais and deliver
a crushing blow to tho allies' left wing
has failed thus far. Yesterday and on
Saturday our armies drove the enemy
still further back. The German army
■which extended from Turcoing to Ar
memtiers and was forced from its po
sition last Tuesday has again met witlh
heavy defeat and been beaten back
northward.
'' Tho battle Which has been raging
at intervals near Arras bla/.ed out
again yesterday. The German losses are
said to be heavy. One force which ad
vanced last week from the nort'iieaat on
• Bailleu has had to turn tail and as
long ago as last Wednesday its columns
were beating a hasty retreat back
whence they came to join their sup
porters at Vpres.
" Ypres was occupied on 'Wednesday
afternoon by a moderate detach
ment of German cavalry and infantry,
but if they have not vet evacuated it
they must do so in the next few hours
as their position is untenable without
very large reinforcements and these
if they cannot reach them now.

Bomb Insurance Rises
London, Oct. ,14. —The rate for in

Expect Spain to Enter War
Madrid, Oct. 14.—The announcement

caused a good deal of excitement and
has set afloat many rumors.

Continuing his dispatch on the con

front sixty miles long on t'he left bank
of the Vistula, presumably representing
the center of the German hosts.
Filling Up Gaps in Austrians
"It may be supposed that the Aus

Cracow and that the Russian advance
towards Cracow has during t'he week of

The retreat of the Germans across the Morln at one time looked like a flight. The fighting In the little town

aga as the victorious advance of their enemies. They were, however, driven froui La Kert6 with great losses, and,
a y )enten on the Grind Morln, were compelled to retire on to their second line on the Petit Morln. Here, likewise,
>PJ were severely attacked by the Allies and compelled to give still further ground. After the fighting on the Petit
01 in the German commanding officers realized that the one hope for them was across the Marne and the Aisne. A
rapid retreat was decided on—guns, ammunition, wagons and other wur materials .were nt places abandoned owing
to the pace of th» movement During this retreat the Geririnns were hard pressed by both British and French sol
( ers. who were now tasting the joys of a rapid and victorious advnnce. In many villages British soldiers . nine up
before the Germans had time to fly, and sanguinary encounters took place between the desperate Geniuut> ttud the
British. The above picture, drawn by Paul Thiriat, special artist in France for this newspaper, the New Vorl; Herald
and the London Sphere, illustrates such an incident duriug the flight across the Petit Morln; the British force sur
prised a body of German soldiers in the early hours of the morning and compelled them to engage, with results dis

Winston Spencer Ohurc'hili, First Lord

"Under the circumstances, says the
correspondent, "the act was not only
justified, 'but one of brave and honor
able necessity. To have refused to go
to the aid of the 'beleaguered garrison

an act of selfish cowardice of which no

(Special to the Star-tndepbndent.)
Altoona, Pa., Oct. 14.—Dr. Brum
baugh returned to Blair county yester
day after an absence of eighteen days.
He believes that he has made a steady
gain among the voters. In Hollidays
bung, as the automobile tour of Blair
county was bogun, Dr. Brumbaugh said:
"We are now entering the sixth
week of the campaign. We find the
greatest amount of interest and en
thusiasm iu our candidacy, which gives
us the assurance of election. One
thing you must do: Come out and
vote, and we shall all be happy in the
result."'
After this little sperch Dr. Brum
baugh greeted everybody personally in
the crowd, and then the party, in com
pany with former Congressman Jesse L.
Hartman, Prof. J. B. Brumbaugh, an
undo of Dr. Brumbaugh, and Prof. H.
Atlee Brumbaugh and Samuel McCur
dav, candidates for the Assembly, and
others, proceeded to the Hollidavsburg
•rligh school where both l>r. Brumbaugh
and Henry Houck made speeches that
greatly delighted the pupils.
The party, in thirteen automobiles,
continued the tour of the county towns,
going first to Duncanville, where thev
were received in the public school. The
300 pupiUt were assembled in charge
of Principal J. M. Kyle and Assistant

both Br. Brumbaugh and Mr. Houck
were heartily apptauded.
Pupils Wave Flags
The party arrived at Newrv, where
Principal Homer X. Ake, of the schools,
had the pupils lined up, each carrying
a small flag. At the Franklin House
they were addressed by Dr. Brumbaugh.
Roaring Springs was reached after
dinner. As the paper mill employes
were going back to work, more than
500 gathered in lront of the hotel and
Dr. Brumbaugh spoko for fifteen min
utes. amid great and outspoken evi
dences of approval His theme was
'•Better Homes, Better Schools, Better'

I the trip was then continued to Fred-
I erieksburg, Beavertown auil Williams

At Fredericksburg the party paused
long enough for Or. Brumbaugh to
call upon an aged aunt.
At the farm of Zack Garner, an old
neighbor of Dr. Brumbaugh, two thresh
ing crews were at work on adjoining
farms, and all left their work and
came out to the road, where they greet
ed the party and assured Dr. Brum- i
ibaugh of their interest and support. j
At Brumbaugh's Birthplace
From Williamsburg, the last town j
visited, a score of automobiles contain
ing a part of the reception committee
had gone out to meet Dr. Brumbaugh
and his party.
As the loug line of automobiles en
tered the town a stop was first made

Brumbaugh spoke briefly to the pupils
and others who had gathered.
After a parade through the business
part of the town, headed by the band,
George R. Patterson introduced Dr.
Brumbaugh and the other candidates,
who spoke to more than a thousand per
sons who had come from the shop and
factory and the home to greet their
friend and neighbor, Dr. Brumlbaugh,
born just across Tussey mountain, only
a few miles distant.
It was a great aud fitting climax for
a most remarkable Jay. It was con

Flinn and Quay Olash
Philadelphia, Oct. 14—William Flinn
had a sharp exchange of verbal "hot
shot" with his former co-worker uuder
the sign of the "Bull Moose," Richard
I{. Quay, in the lobby of the Bellevue-
Stratford Hotel last night. Then he
was content that it should be inferred
that he was doing all in his power to
bring about what was regarded as po
litically impossible, th e withdrawal of
Representative Palmer in favor of Gif
ford Pinchot.
The points in the foregoing, the
"withdrawal" and the "hot shot" are
related because of the fact that it was
in the course of his encounter with the
son of the late Senator Quay that Flinn
gave an intimation of his movements
in the direction of obtaining fusion
against Senator Penrose.
Mr. Quay and Mr. Flinn are both of
Pittsburgh. Until recently, when Quay
denounced Flinn as a political "tra
der," Quay was one of the former Sen
ator's chief lieutenants in the Washing
ton party. Their meeting last night was
the first since Quay renounced his po
litical allegiance to the Washington
party chieftain.
Quay told Flinn to his face what he
has been saying about hiim in state
ments to the public. Retort followed re
tort. And yet each was satisfied at
the close to describe it all as "pleas
antry"'
But in the course of this "pleasant
ry," Flinn told Quay, according to the
latter, that he thought Mr. Palmer
would withdraw as the Democratic
nominee for United States Senator, and
so perfect fusion between the Demo
cratic and Washington parties.
Talk of Further Fusion
The Anti-Penrose Republican League
of Pennsylvania, an organization form
ed for the purpose of obtaining pub
licity for Gifford Pinchot, yesterday an
nounced that petitions had been re
ceived from a numt>er of persons urg
ing that Representative A. Mitchell
Palmer, Democratic nominee for Unit
ed States Senator, withdraw in favor
of Pinchot, the Washington party nomi
nee. The league's statements asserts
that there is a widespread demand for
Mr. Palmer's withdrawal. However,
friends of Mr. Palmer said there was
not the slightest possibility of his with
drawing, and suggested, instead, that if
there be any withdrawing Mr. Pinchot
is the logical man for that move.
Announcement of important fusion
on State Representatives in this city
and the probability of fusiou in two
State Senatorial districts, with the like
lihood that further results of the kind
may be obtained in Philadelphia and
throughout Pennsylvania, yesterday
centred political attention ou the fight
independents are making to prevent
the Republican organization from con
trolling the next State Legislature, and
more particularly the next State Senate.
