The European V "Notable Ih-ogpesu." London, Oct. i">.-Two groat bat ik's in tho European war, one In Northern Franco and Belgium, tho other In Russian Poland, both with a iront of 300 miles, have reached tin ir height, but the public ls allow ed only an occasional glance of their progress through official communica tions. These frequently are widely al variance. Prom tho French report it appeal that the western battle is going slowly, but surely, in favor of tho allies. I nder the pressure of thc troops of the allies, the Hermans, Who started to advance on Calais and other French coast ports, have been forced to evacuate the left hank of the Cys river, which is a con siderable distance east of the points their advance guards reached last week. Further east, in the Lens district and southward between Ar ias mid Albert, where the Germana made their first attempt to work around the allies' left, the english and French have made "notable pro gress " Connan Cavalry linters Pr/.emysl. The following Cern?an officiai statement was received in London to-night by wireless: "It ls reported officially from Vi enna thal our cavalry bas entered the fortress of Przemysl, Galicia, from the west. 'The enemy, perplex ed by tho rapidity of our operations in Russian Poland and Calida, tried in vain to prevent our relief of the fortress by detaching troops to the west. They were unable, however, to resist the advance of our army. "Tho ?'?lb and t?tb Russian divis ions of infantry attacked by us have fled In the direction of the River San. "A Cossack cavalry division and an infantry brigade In a strong position west of Dynow, Galicia, were defeat ed after brief resistance." epidemics Threatening Troops. Amsterdam, Oct. 15.-The Hot Leven to-day publishes an interview its correspondent at Metz bad with Prof. Rosserer, who, he says, bad been charged with the task of com bating a threatened epidemic among the German troops.

Gem?an Attack Repulsed. Paris, Oct. IC. A dispatch from Petrograd says that word ls received there from Warsaw that the popula tion of the city is returning and tho banks are resuming business. A bat tle is being fought about :lo miles from Warsaw. 'The Germans endeavored to take the heights about seven miles from the town, but were repulsed. Allies Gabi Some Ground. Paris. Oct. UL-The following offi ficial communication was Issued here this evening: "On our left wing the action con tinues vigorously. Everywhere we have held our own. At certain points we have gained ground and have oc cupied Laventie at the east of Etal res In the direction of Lille. "There ia no Important incident to mention In other parts of the front, except an unsuccessful attack by the Germans in the region of Ma lancourt, northwest of Verdun." Germans Occupy Ostend.

Fighting between Cern?an and Rus sian troops is going on within eight miles of Warsaw, Russian Poland. The official decision to defend the city of Warsaw ls regarded here as important in two ways. First, it in dicates thal the Germans have been thwarted in their attempts to straighten their front along a north and swu?h lin,, so that it would ex tend from Ostrolenka, r.O miles northeast of Warsaw, through San domlr Into (?alacia; and, second, the Germans have been obstructed In their plan to use Warsaw as winter quarters. Approach Russian Frontier, With the exception of an engage ment south of Przemysl, where the Russian left wing ls reported as hav ing repulsed the advancing Austri ans and Germans, activity at other points on the line appears to have been suspended. German troops are now around Polangen and Jurburg, a short dist ance from the Russian frontier, in th< northern part of Fast Prussia. The Russians at present are making no effort to advance further than the boundary of East Prussia. Here tlie lighting has ceased, while along he southern limits of Bast Prussia there are few troops of either army until ih<- Vistula river is reached. Here ilir Germans are endeavoring to ad vance along the left bank of this stream to avoid the strong fortress of Georgievsk on the right bank. Russian experts believe Gie Ger mans plan to attempt to carry the w;ir into Bast Galicia and the Lom berg district. 'Phis is indicated by the German abandonment of the at tempt to advance eastward into Rus sia in favor of the project of striking southward. Victories Confirmed? Paris, Oct.

As producers and builders the American people excel 1 all previous civilization and we are a present-day marvel in business efttcienev, hut In dealing with foreign countries we are a sorry lot of traders. Ever since William Penn traded with tho In dians a handful of trinkets for what is now the State of Pennsylvania the American people have been selling their birthright to foreigners for a mess of pottage, so to speak. We export over $500,000,000 of cattle and their products per an num, which feeds the nations of Eu rope; and our American heiresses spend a similar sum in buying and maintaining counts, dukes and titled peerages. These foreign noblemen are, as a rule, absolutely worthless in fact become a perpetual liability for it costs more money lo ?brate and keep them in repair than it does to run our cotton mills. Kuroi?ean royalty puts the black sheep of Its families on the block and our rich American girls buy them, and we virtually exchange railroads, wheat Melds and millions of dollars worth of products Of farm, mine and fac tory for titled paupers who could not be resold for any sum. It does not require foreign treaties, a fleet of w ar vessels or tariff revision to stop this enormous loss. It needs only common sense in the homes of the rich. We export $18,000.000 of lumber and timber, and American tourists spend a similar amount in motoring over Europe and sightseeing in for eign lands, although the most en chanting sc enes of the world are on the American continent.
