THE FULTON COUNTY NEWS, McCONNELLSBURG, PA. GERMANS WEAKEN, SAYS THEY RUSH UP HEAVY RUSSIA AGAIN WINS IN -:o ALLIES GAIN ON WHOLE LINE AND BERLIN ADMITS CHECK NEAR WARSAW -:o:- Impetucns Soldiers of the Kaiser Cross Yser Canal on Bridge of Dead, the Waterway Being Filled with Bodies of Slain A'ter Seven Desperate Attacks CONFLICTS, MOST SANGUINARY OF WAR, MARK EFFORT OF INVADERS London.- Park and forth, In slgzas style, a.Diig tho course of the Yser be tween NUtp;.rt, cn the North Sea, and Dixmude, 15 miles to the south, the tide of battle ebbed and flowed duy upon day without any marked change In the positions of the Allies and the Germans belli effected. Gen. Joffre's despatches, however, strengthen the belief that the German attack In Flanders and France has passed the crest of power and is slow ly weakening, The French official reports were more favorable than at any time since the German armies began their new advance fifteen days ago after the oc cupation of Ostend. The Kaiser's troops were not merely checked, but were hurled back. The All! gained ground in Bel glum to the north and east of Ypres, driving a wedge further northward be tween the German forces near the coast and forces operating from Ghent and Brussels. The Allies outfought the Germans and advanced in the re glou of La Basse, the point for many days of incessant and violent effort by the Germans to cut the Allied line in two. Elsewhere a'.ofg the west flank the Allied line remains unbreak able. The official statement that the Ger man onslaught Is moderating, togeth er with unoincial despatches asserting that the Germans cannot maintain their attack, warrants the conjecture lhat the Russian victories In Poland, the advances of the French in Lor raine and Alsace and tremendous losses In killed and wounded in Bel gium and northern Frace are compell ing the Germans once more to aban don an offensive campaign and are forcing them to prepare to defend their own territory. It Is reported lhat the Invaders have lost 16.000 kill ed and 30,000 wounded in Belgium slone, while their losses in France, especially near La Basse, Lille and Arras, have been enormous. The dwindling of their chances in Belgium produced the new attempt to break through the Allied line In the old centre, in the Craonne region. The news from the battle line north, fast and south east of Verdun con tinues to be favorable to the French and has an Important bearing on the situation In tho north. The French moved forward in an effort to envelop the German force holding St. Mlhlel, and maintained a threatening move ment toward Metx. The Austrian ofllclul reports tell of fieavy fighting in Polund south of Ivan 'gorod and the capture of 10,000 Rus sians. They also declare the Servians and Montenegrins have been driven out of Bosnia with great loss. The British Government Is greatly worried over tho rebels In South Afri ca having been Joined by Generals De Wet and Beyers, but Insists the re volt will soon be wiped out. An official statement Issued in Lon don announces that Premier Bo tha, commanding the troops of tho Union of South Africa, has routed the command of rebels under General Beyers and captured 80 prisoners. LONG TRAINS OF WOUNDED. Geneva, vli Paris. Telegrams re ceived in Basle, Switzerland, from Cologne and Coblenx declare that the war on the German right flank from Lille to the North Sea has become a massacre. Hurlng six days, it is de declared, many thousands of Germans havo been killed or wounded. FRENCH LOSS PUT AT 40,000 Officers Said to Complain of Quality of New Troops. BERLIN. According to re ports printed In Swiss newspa pers the French losses on the line between Toul and Verdun since the taking of Camp des Romains by the Germans have been more than 43,000 men. The same report says that the French officers are complaining of the Inferior quality of the new French troops. It Is stated officially here that English newspapers estimate the Belgian losses In th fight ing along the Yser Canal at 10,000 men. WAR TAX ON IN ITALY. King Signs Decrees Drawn to In crease Revenue. Rome. The King signed the royal decrees to Increase the revenue. The action raises the taxes upon playing hoards and bookmaker's tickets, levies an additional tnx of 5 per cent, on business transactions, raises to $4.50 the price of licenses to curry revolvers from $10 to $F,0 for the sale of weapons and knives, and Increases tho price of licenses for the use of motor cars and motorbeats. Long trains containing wounded continue to pour Into Cologne, Dusstl dorf, and Coblenx, and the Red Cross doctors and the hospitals In those places are overwhelmed, It Is stated. The effort to forco the Allies' lines cost the Germans heavily. One cor respondent estimates their losses dur ing the past few days of continuous fighting at 14,000 a day. The Hotter dam correspondent of the Pally Mall telegraphs that during the recent heavy fighting the Germans lost nearly 50,000 men. The Allies' loss, too, has been severe. Tho Belgians are bo Heved to have lost 12,000 men In the recent fighting. The Belgians were always in the thickest of the fight. The British casualty report says that seventy-four officers are dead, wound ed or mlsBlng In the recent fighting. A despatch from Berne, Switzerland, asserts that the Germans are receiv ing large reinforcements' In Alsace and that the French are making great preparations for an attack on Bel fort, which Is powerfully intrenched. A Central News despatch from "Northern France" states that the Ba varian Crown Prince had eight full army corps, about 320.000 men, with which to force tlie passage along the sea coast. These troops were con stantly reinforced. Their losses have been frightful, the despatch states. Regarding the fighting the corre spondent states that the situation looked desperate for the Allies. A Central News dispatch from Am sterdam says that the Germans are strongly reinforced and are making another effort to cross the Yser Canal. A German officer is quoted as saying that his men have already crossed the canal seven times and were com pelled each time to retreat. At sev eral points along the canal, the bodies of Germans killed In action were used as bridges for the crossings. Teutons Now Fear an Extended War German Press Admits It May Last Longer Than Expected Urges Husbanding of Wheat Supply. Amsterdam. The German semi-official press has changed its mind and admits that war Is likely to last longer than it originally thought. The North German Gazette In a long article regarding the maximum prices of provisions urges the necessi ty to husband the wheat resources. The newspaper estimates Germany has enough corn for bread for the army and the population until the next harvest, but it adds the war may last longer, and the Germans must be able to hold out until lasting peace Is brought about. After repeated repulses In their des perate effort to establish themselves on the Channel coast, the Germans are now massing troops on the line be tween Dixmude and N leu port. They have about 250.000 men' fight ing for the road to Calais, and prob ably another 100,000 are on the way to reinforce them Immediately. ' The artillery Is particularly strongly rep resented, GERMAN CRUISER EMDEM DESTROYS JAPANESE BOAT Kaiser's Rover, Chased by Twenty British and French Warships Keeps Up Work. Berlin (via The Hague). The Ger man cruiser Emden continues to evade the pursuing column made up of twen ty British and French warships and nearly the total reserve strength of the Japanese navy. An official report received,from her commander shows that she Is now harassing the Japanese commerce. The Japanese liner Kamasaka Maru, en route to Singapore from Japanese puTts with a valuable cargo, lias been sunk in the Indian Ocean. In the marine records the steamer Kamcgasakl-Maru is given as being of 138 tons burden. She is owned In Niicasakl. SUBMARINES TO CARRY TROOPS Germans Build New Type for Use As Pontoons Also. London. A despatch from Copen hagen to the Times says tho Germans are hulidlng at Elbing and Hamburg a new typo of large submarine which will be used for the transportation of troops, Tho main object Is to enable the troops to reach shore without be ing detected by the forces on land. The new boats can also be employ ed as pontoon on the surface of the water. Austria Feeling War's Disasters Every Available Vienna Building Tak en for Wounded Soldiers Beg In Streets Capital Is Full of Misery. Rome. Information from Austria reveals unimagined seriousness. The military losses not only have been great, but disease is spreading while the populace Is apathetic. Enor mous, almost inconceivable, Is tho loss of life suffered by the Austrian Army. An evil spirit seems to have ren dered the Austrian Army impotent from the very commencement of hos tilities. The first Austrian advance Into Russian Poland, resulted in a hor rib'.o catastrophe for the Invaders. Only six weeks after the declaration of war Vienna alone took under its auspices no fewer than 60,000 wound ed, and it as calculated thut In those six weeks the Austrian Army had loitt 200iOC men in killed and wounded. From then onward not a single day has elapsed without bringing news of a sanguinary skirmish. In one encounter of minor Impor tance at the end of September the Austrian Army emerged with the colos sal total of 20,000 fallen. This was due to a tragic error. The Austrlans, left without ammunition and stationed in an open position, hoisted white flags. T! Russians did not see them and continued to decimate the Aus trlans with their mitrailleuses for sev eral hours. Austria was entirely unprepared for such gigantic losses. Vienna has con sequently had to be converted into a gigantic hospital. All the public and private hospitals, barracks, and schools became overfilled, but this did not suffice, and theatres and offices were occupied for this purpose. It was still Inadequate. Then were in vaded the Museum, the great Rotunde of the world-renowned Prater Park, where elegant spectacular ballets were performed, the gay palaces of the great Viennese exhibitions, and all other available accommodations. The life of the city is nearly alto gether crushed by this painful mass of mutilated humanity. The hospitals are beginning to run short of chloroform, and as a result many operations are performed with out anaesthetics. Convalescent soldiers wander like vagabonds through the streets, cloth ed in uniforms and still bandaged, begging alms. They are hungry, they ask for food, warm apparel, under clothing, and walking sticks. All the stocks have been exhausted. There is no more leather for boots. There is a shortage of shirts and jack ets. One sees reservists on sentry duty with ropes around their waists instead of leather belts. Together with the wounded arrive long processions of cholera and dysen tery invalids, all from the Gallclan frontier. The medical figures for Vi enna Indicate 100 dead dally from this malicious epidemic. FINAL WAR BULLETINS The French War, Office announces that the German attacks on the front In Belgium appear to be mod erating. The German cruiser Emden has sunk a small Japanese steamer en route for Singapore. Berlin reports that the Belgians have been reinforced, but the German at tacks are being pushed. The German official report admits that the German and Austrian forces have been compelled to re tire from Russian Poland before fresh Russian troops. An official Berlin report said the battle in Belgium was proceeding with ''stubbornness." It was announced that one of the British warships had been set afire by the German shells. Russian Generals said the Germans lost at Warsaw because they delay ed their attack after their brilliant and unexpected advance. Gen. Baron von Ardenne, formerly attached to the War Office in Ber lin, predicted the capture of Calais and other channel ports, which, he said, would open the way to a pos sible Invasion of England. Another rebellion has broken out In South Africa, led by Gen. Christian de Wet and Gen. Christian Frede rick Beyers, In the Orange Free State and Western Transvaal. Hell bron has been seized, and the Gov ernment officials taken prisoners. Berlin reported officially that the Brit slh fleefhad been driven off by the German artillery on the Belgian coast and that three of them had been struck. The Germans admit ted the defense of the Allies was obstinate. The French War Office reported that the Germans who crossed the Yser River had been halted and that the Allies held their positions against attacks In France. FOOD RIOT IN BRUNSWICK. Shops of Dealers Who Raise Prices Wrecked, Says Report. Amsterdam. The Vorwaerts, the Socialist paper In Berlin, says that riots have resulted from a shortage of food In Brunswick. The shops of po tato dealers who had raised prices were wrecked. The Vorwaerts also says that the mux!mi!m prices fixed In various com munities are very high and that a demand is heard that the Government fixed prices In all district PARIS FORCES POLAND GERMAN REINFORCEMENTS t NEVER CEASE.

War Horrors Along Yser Baffle Reporters' Descriptive Powers London. The "News" reporter who has been in an armored train to the banks of the Yser, gives a good description of the battle in the north. He says: "The battle rages along the Yser with frightful destruction of life. Air engines, sea-engines, and land-engines deathsweep this desolate country ver tically, horizontally, and transversely. Through it the little frail human en gines crawl and dig, walk and run, skirmishing, charging, and blunder ing In the little Individual fights and tussles, tired and puzzled, ordered here and there, sleeping where they can, never washing, and dying unno ticed. A friend may And himself fir ing on a friendly force and few are to blame. "First the Germans were driven back over the Yser; then they secured a footing again, and next day they were again hurled back. Now a bridge blown up by one side Is repaired by the other; it Is again blown up by the first, or left as a death trap till the enemy is actually crossing. "Action by armored trains, some of them the most reckless adventures, are attempted dally. Each day ac cumulates an unwritten record of in dividual daring feats, accepted as part of the daily work. Day by day our men push out on these dangerous ex plorations, attacked by shell fire, In danger of cross fire, dynamite, and ambuscades, bringing a priceless sup port to the threatened lines. As the armored train approaches the river under shell fire the car cracks with the constant thunder of guns aboard. It Is amazing to see the angle at which the guns can be swung. "And overhead the airmen are busy venturing through fog and puffs of exploding shells to get one small fact of information. We used to regard the looping of the loop of the Ger mans overhead as a hare-brained piece of impudent defiance to our Infantry fire. Now we know it means early trouble for the infantry. "Besides us, as we crawl up sniffing the lines like dogs on a scent, grim trainloads of wounded wait sound lessly In the sidings. Further up the line ambulances are coming slowly back. The bullets of machine guns begin to rattle on our armored coats. Shells we learned to disregard, but the machine gun Is the master in this war. " 'A brisk day,' remarks the cor respondent. 'Not so bad, replies the officer. So the days pass." PREDICTS HARDEST FIGHTING IN GERMANY But Beresford Declares 8he Must Lose Fleet, Colonies and Krupp Gun Work. STAFFORD, England (via London). The serious times of the war, . said Lord Charles Beresford In a speech here, would begin when the Germans were forced over the frontier into their own country where they would have their own base of supplies. It would take -more than six months or a year "to put Emperor William on his back," said Lord Charles. Germany, he declared, must be humbled and humiliated "She must lose the whole of her fleet," Lord Charles conclud ed, "give up the Kiel Canal and her colonies, her forts must be demolished and the Krupp works razed to the ground."

HA MELANCHOLY AS WAR GOES ON AND NEWS (The following story I the ft rat re ceived In tho United StHle lulling of actual war conditions in Vlnnna, It In written by tho first American-trained newRjinpor woman who lion had an oppor tunity to sco minus as tlioy are lu Aus tria.) By ALICE ROHE. (United Frmia Staff Correspondent.) Vienna. Vienna is a city of lost bope, of gloom, of gray despair. The once gayest und most beautiful capltxl of Europe Is today the saddest, the must distressed. Silent, hopeless protests against the horrors of war which have turned this wonderful, Joyous city Into a melancholy sepul cher for tho living, permeates every stratum of society. I havo seen a procession of 4,000 mothers, whose husbands Iinvo died In Gallcla, carrying In their arms their fatherless babes. They filed past the great cold palace of the ministry of war. It was their mute appeal for peace. I have seen a procession of little Children, plaintive and futllo emis saries of life, silently protesting against needless death. Dazed by War Horrors. I have ueon trains arriving, every one crowded to suffocation with the wounded and dying. From the midst of these maimed and mutilated, sick ened and suffering men, I havo Been uncomprehending soldiers, dazed by the horrors of war, crazed with Joy at being home again, dragged from their companions and placed under arrest. Their crime? Why, they cried out In the delirium of excitement their curses against the Russians who had brought such terrlblo defeat to the Austrian armies. For no news must be whispered by the wounded or the. fugitive which reflects the truth of Austrian disasters. And above these vlsuul pictures of the melancholy Vienna of today, I have sensed the touch of those gray wings of dread which cast their shadow over the town tie soiled, the ordld, the horrible wings of cholera.' I havo felt with the people, stalking bosldo this hideous enemy, the plague its sister specter, hungt.T. Seventy Thousand Now In Hospitals. In Vienna today 70,000 wounded are being cared for In hospitals, schools, universities, hotels, churches. The Red Cross admits its inability to care for all the wounded, and the sight of helpless men, suffering needlessly and hopelessly, la one which confronts the worker in the cause of humanity. In all Europe there does not exist today another capital where the pub lic is treated so inconsiderately lu re gard to war news. The newspapers publish nothing save the official state mentsand their "news" con . be guessed at. Arrests are made hourly of Vlen nose who whisper words of Austrian defeat Spies are everywhere. In a cafe on the Praterstrasse I sat In a nervous crowd and saw whisper ing refugees from Galicla passing their story on, furtively and fearfully. Suddenly I saw a young man whose pale face told of recent Buffering de serted by his companion, who went to the door, whispered to an otficor and departed. In a moment the fugitive was arrested. He bad talked to a spy. Talks to Young Mother. At the same station where the In coming trains bring new misery for gay Vienna that was I talked with a young mother whose husband luy dead on the battlefield. She had (led to the capital to plead with the govern ment which had taken her husband and robbed her children of a fnther for means of support and some of the necessaries of life. She told In pa tient, resigned tones of her sufferings in bringing her three children from Gallcla, where her home was to be her haven no longer, and where blood ran deep in the garden beds which she had tended so faithfully waiting the return of her husband. "When we arrived at the frontier," she said, "the scenes were awful. We wereherded like animals and were treated worse than we treat our dogs. I was days in securing a pluce In the trains because I had no money. There was a police officer on the train; and he demanded our passports, such money as we had, and when we could show neither he refused for days to let us go on." The natural impulse of those fugi tives here is to speak of the evil days which have befallon them, of their losses and the carnage and they can not understand why they are arrested for it. Moves Citizens to Despair. The sight of automobiles carrying wounded Boldlers past the brilliant Hof theater, past tho opera, past the gothlc splendor of St. Stephens, whore formerly gay cars sped on, bent on pleasure, Is one that moves the Vi ennese to despair. I talked to one of these wounded soldiers as the car In which ho was boing carried was stopped in front of the Burg theater for repairs. He told me fa whispers, while the guards were busy with the car, of the frightful ravages made by the Russians and the Servians upon the Austrlans. "They have burled our dead In heaps," he said, tears coursing down his face. "They were killed like sheep driven to a slaughter yard. The Russian artillery has done unbeliev able things. The Russians waste their ammunition as though It were free as MONROE DOCTRINE WINS RESPECT OF GERMANY New Yorta In the course of the first three weeks of the European war Germany, through Count von Bern storff, the German ambassador in Washington, communicated to Secre tary of State Bryan the official assur ance of the Gorman government that, no matter what happened In Europe as a result of the present , conflict, Germany would respect the Monroe AS A SEPULCHER IS air. Their Infantry is not good, but how terrible Is the artillery how ter rible" The spirit of patriotism in the Vi ennese runs to Its highest flood when these wounded men are being con veyed through the streets. Show Captured Arms. Before the palace of the minister of war, beside the monument of Maria Theresa and of Prince Schwarzen berg, the cannons and arms captured from tho Russians are on view. They are insignificant arms, but the people do not tire of caressing them. The meager signs of Austrian success are like gleams of hopo In a leaden sky of despair. Aud. patrolling the streets one sees Increasing In number dally nonde script army uniforms. Every color and sort of ancient regalia has been brought forth from old storehouses. In the hour when war and Its hor rors are keeping a pall over Vienna the sight of religious processions, headed by priests praying for Divine n!d, brings out In relief the picture of faith. The churches ore constantly filled with women and children, pray ing for husbands and fathers and brothers who may nover roturn. In the time of sorrow too great to en dure alone the peoplo are throwing themselves moro and more upon the bosom of the church, which has of fered them consolation so many times before. Rich Are Accused. While the devout are filling the churches and the wounded are filling the hospitals, while the wretched fu gitives are bringing with them famine from Gallcla,. accusations and pro tests are rising above the murmurs of distress, agnlnst the rich. On different subscription lists opened dally for the Red Cross the sight of unbelievably small sums giv en by membors of the nobility and by millionaires has brought forth waves of Indignation. A feudal prince who is among the richest men In Europe has subscribed 20 crowns ($4). Ev erywhere one hears criticism of the aristocracy, of the high nobility and their avarice. This selfishness, say the people, is traditional,, but the pub 11a believed that In an hour lfke this even the tightened purses of the no bility would open. It has been sug gested that a list be published, giving the names of the nobility, of the rich who have been guilty of avarice, and who have added to the general pub lic depression. Emperor Francis Jo seph dons not conceal bis Indignation against these grasping members of the nobility. HESSIAN PRINCE SHOT IN BACK, SAY ALLIES By HAROLD ASHTON. (International News Borvlce.) Calais. Hospitals, both In the field and at the base, are full of work just now, for the fighting that Is going on Is fierce and reckless. Troops upon entering a small vil lage, held strenuously for several days by the Prussians, came upon the body of Prince Max of Hesse. He had been dead three days. The body had been stripped of everything but the tunic and socks and waa marked with Ave revolver wounds made from be hind. The tale Is whispered that be was the victim of his own soldiers. A rough coffin of real boards was made for the boy he was little more than that and then for three long days the body lay In an outbuilding of a small farmhouse. The body now has been sent Into the German lines. Continual night fighting has been going on. The nights have been des perately cold, but the men and horses of the allies have a splendid supply of blankets and good, hot food Is turned out smoking from the travel ing field kitchens. i Troops Have Plenty. The troops have more than enough of coffee, Jam galore and cigarettes by the tens of thousands. Their spirit Is excellont, their health good, their hearts high and they are still sing ing. They are looking forward cheer fully enough to a tempestuous Christ mas day in the trenches. Calais is taking It all placidly enough. The city is filled with Bel gian refugees wandering at will any where, anyhow, sleeping under the stars, amid stable litter In byways, in filthy back streets, on steamboats and on fishing boats. In the harbor, whero hundreds and hundreds of fishing boats from all along the coast lie thick as their own puckeil fish after a spoil of great hauling, there la a living population nlmost equal to the population of the town at normal times. Whole families are herding In an Intolerable atmosphere. There are families in rags and tatters with nil their cherished household goods, while clustering around them are families of the well-to-do, fat and well-fed, with furs to warm them and Jewels to decorate them. Waiting for Boats. Every day hundreds of them are marshaled off to the quay, where they wait In long, dreary, patient lines, in rain or Bhlne, for an English boat to carry them away. We are murdering one another as hard as we can and in the wake of it all comes this pitiable, heartbreak ing stream of Innocent sufferers, crouching submissively to the lash. doctrine and the views of the United States regarding that doctrine. The above statement was made by Dr. Bernhard Dernberg, former colon ial secretary of tho Gorman govern ment. King's Last Words for Peace. London.
