The German attacks on the allied line near Che 'Belgian coast .between Nlenport and Dixnude, similar tactics by the Allies in France between Ar ms and Roys, where progress is claimed, a continued allied assault on Lille, still held by Germans and stubborn lighting in the vicinity of 9t. Mlhlel, where for days the Allies have been trying to drive the Ger mans from their southermost lodg ment, were the scute points Tuesday !h the sprawling battle area of francs and Belgium. Fighting of the most desperate character Is in progress in West FUn- dors and Northwestern France. The Belgian army, supported by the Al- Jlee, la holding stubbornly to the line con / the River Yser, and thus far has atted determined efforts of the Ger- ans to advance along the coast. A little further south the Allies are pting to advance toward Lille it the relief of that city, which has In German hands for some time, alao ere pushing on to the north gad south of Arras. Their efforts to advance on Lille, where the Germans hold strong positions, were repulsed, according to the German report. ^ To the south, at the bend ‘of the line, the Germans continue furious, bat futile, attempts to break the h line. Along the Meuse, in the .according to the French account, Germans have failed to repulse the French, who debouched along the territory in which Is situated the b f Camp das Romalnes now In the bands < gj of the Germans, In an attempt to cut oat that portion of the German army thrust towards St. Mlhlel. -epeaklng, the French to have made progress at va- polnts along the front.

They seem to have the railroads working well, al- though they must bave been serious ly damaged daring the battles of August and September. Troops are being transported over them, and Dutch sources report that train after train of wounded Is being taken beck to Germany. In the lighting In thin open coun try, where the men have not the pro tection of elaborate entrenchments, snch as they have on the Alsne, the losses must be heavy, especially where endeavors ere made to carry positions by saaanlt. Torrential rains have made the flat country around the coast c. sea of mud and this, with the network of canals, makes the movement of Ger man guns extremely difficult. The Germans still are bringing up rein forcements, a message from Amster dam saying that troops of all arms are steadily moving westward be tween Weeteren and Termonde, to ward the French frontier. The London press is unanimously hailing the German attempt to sweep through Belgium to the North France coast towns as a failure. It may be true that the progress from Ostend has been slower than the usual impet uous German rush, but It seems pre mature to say that they have failed. The picture continue so blurred that It Is impossible, except for the commanders on the spot accurately to guage the effect of the momentary charges on the ultimate result. German and Russian reports agree that the situation In the east has not changed, although the armies are in close touch along the east Prussian frontier and across Poland and Gali cia. In Galicia, however, the Aus trians claim to have repulsed Russian attacks and to be making progress In their campaign to drive out the in vaders.

Six white men and four negroes were burled at Rluefleld. W. Va., under a quarry cave-ln. One white man and one negro were rescued alive .but the others are supposed to be dead. None* or ELECTION.

These estimates did not include in comes between $3,000 a.nd $4,000 on which 79.426 returns actually were made, so that tLe total discrepancy is 146,828.
