Over Wilt Have Caused To Be Added to th? Already Long List of Great Battles, the Blood iest Page in the World's History. --- The French and British armies cn a battle line 25o miles across still are strenously opposing the advance of the German forces across " trie French frontier. The British troops are reported to be qCCutfrNig a strong position and are supported by the French on both flanks. . While the Germans have occupied the French cities of Lille, Valenciennes and Roubaix, the official report from the war office de* j scribed hopefully, from the viewpoint of the allies, operations to the I east. Apparently the French troops, in the Vosges district have re sumed the offensive and have forced the German; to retire on the St. Die side. former ambassador at Berlin, Sir Willian Edward Goschen, in an official report published by the government in the form of a white paper, tells in an interesting way of his interviews with the German minister for foreign affairs, Herr von Jagow and f|c Imperial Ger man Chanc*ii?>r, L>. von Bethmann-Hollweg, at the time o^ the Brit ish ultimatum, demanding that Germany should cease violation of Belgian neutrality. According to the official report Herr von Jagow ? deplored the step which Great Britain was about tc take as he saw the end of his policy and that of the imperial chancellor, which had been tc make friends with Great Britain and then through Great Britain get closer to France. Similarly the imperial chancellor was taken back. He declared Great Britain's action was "terrible to a degree" and declared that his policy, by this step, "was tumbled down like a house of cards." He. held Great Britain responsible for all the terrible events that might happen and asked if the British government had thought at what price the compact to defend Belgium's neutrality would be kept. The French commander-in chief, General Joffre, in a communi cation tc Field Marshal Sir John French, commander of the British forces, pays high tribute to valor of thei?ritsh anny, which, he says, "did not hesitate, but threw its whole strength against forcea of neat numerical superiority." lt is reporte 1 that British marines h?ve occupied Ostend to pre 1 vent the Germans from getting ?t foothold on the English channel. 1 The German steamer Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse has been sunk by a British cruiser off the west coast of Africa.
