SAY ALLIES ARE ON GERMAN SOIL I'ontinnrd I'rm Flrat Pace. olas, the Russian commander-in-chief in the field, tho advance guards of which are loss than 200 miles from Ber lin. It is true that there was a brief Russian invasion of East Prussia dur ing the early stages o" the war, while the French have for n long time held their positiota in Alsace; but the latest development in the Russian advance, if the interpretation placed on it in lxm don is not all wrong, is the most impor tant. of the campaign up to the present time. Jt is lucre speculation, of course, to say that Gennauy may be forced forthwith to retire from Belgium, or even cease her offensive in this arena. In certain areas of Fiance and Belgium the allies are taking a vigorous of fensive, but it is too early yet to pre dict that Germany will not renew her smashing tactics in an effort to breaJi through the line and that there will not be much hard fighting around Ypres. In any event. German retirement from Belgium probably would be very slow, as the forces of Emperor William have made the entire country behind their battle line one vast fortification, with trenches even more carefully pre pared thaft those they are still holding; in France. With Tsing Tau under Japanese ad ministration and the release for other service of the Japanese and British vessels used in the capture of this Ger man stronghold, there should be a sharp impetus to naval activity in the Far Eust, as these vessels can now center their attention upon the roving Ger man cruisers which have been so suc cessful in operations against British shipping. GERMAN OFFENSIVE IS ON AT OIXMUOE, IS REPORT OF FRENCH ON SITUATION Paris, Nov. 9, 2.57 P. M. —The of ficial announcement given out by the French War Office this afternoon says that the German offeusive has been re newed at Dixmude and to the southeast of ypres all the German attacks have beeu repulsed. The text of the com munication follows: '•On our left wing the Germans have undertaken again an offensive move ment on Dixmude and in the rogion of Ypres. Particularly to tho southeast of Ypres their attacks have been every where repulsed. "Ar the end of the day, referring to the entire f.-ont between Dixmude and the Lys, we have made progress along the major part of the line. Neverthe less, our advance is slow on account of the offensive movements undertaken by the enemy, and because of the strong organization, the enemy already has had the time to effect around his points of support. Since the beginning of the fighting the fog, furthermore, has made operations difficult, particularly be tween the Lvs and the Oise. "On the center, along the Aisne, the progress set forth in the official com munications of yesterday has been maintained. In the Argoune and in the vicinity of V erdun there have been only actions of minor importance. "On our right wing, in Lorraine, there is nothing to report. In Alsace fresh attacks on the part of the Ger mans directed against the heights of Mount Sainte Marie have again result ed for them in decided check.'' Russian Black Sea Fleet's Movements London, Nov. !), 7.55 A. M. —A dis patch from Berlin states that the Rus sian Black sea fleet has left Sevastopol and is proceeding eastward, says the 'Central News" correspondent at Co penhagen. The Russians, according to his dispatch, have bombarded KohJn and Suglu, on the coast of Asia Minor.

BIG GUNS FOR THE CANAL No Weapon in the World Equals the - Sixteen Inch Monster There is still about a year's work to do on the sixteen inch gun before it is sent to the Panama fortifications. The gun lias been ordered shipped to Wa tervliet arsenal, where it will be sent to Watertown, and the gun will be in stalled in the immeuse carriage, which is now Hearing completion. At Wa tertown it will have a shock test, after which the gun and the carriage will be shipped back to Sandy Hook for final test. The progress of building the disap pearing carriage is attracting the at tention of ordnance experts of various countries, and great interest will ba taken in the firing test of the gun after it is installed in its new carriage, [t will throw a larger projectile than any gun in the world. It is estimated that it will have an effective range of some thing like sixteen miles, which is be yond that of any other gun in the world. The final tests at Sandy Hook of two new fourteen inch guns for Pana ma canal fortifications arc about com pleted. The ordnance officers are high ly pleased with the success of the tests, and it is stated that a remark able record of accuracy was made by the guns on long range firing.—Army and Navy Journal. De Saulles Made a Record .John L, de Saulles, who recently re signed the post of minister to Uruguay to which he was appointed in March, to engage in the real estate business in New York, stepped out of the Unit ed States diplomatic service without having discharged a single official duty.
