Russians Claim That After Having
Driven Germans Back They are After
Adstrians.
I,ondon. Nov. 6.?Tii* Rnsclnnc
I port that, having driven the Germans
back to their border in the north and
I forced their centre to retire from Vistula
to the Wart he Riven, the Russian
general staff has turned its att
tention to the Austrians, who have
held their positions stubbornly along
I tl o San Rive" in Galieia.
According" to a telegram from Grand
I I?uke Nicholas the Russians have won
a victory more important than any
previous one. The Russians say they
again have occupied Jaroslau, north
of Przemysl, capturing* five thousand
prisoners. It is believed here, however,
that there will be another big
battle on the Warthe before armies
en Silesia.
Ii the struma between the Gcr
mans and the allies in the west there
again has been little, if any. change.
The Germans, twice balked in tluir
attempt to reach the French coast,
are preparing for another attack,
which, like the last is directed at the,
line held by the British on both sides
of the town of Yprcs, where, for a
fort-night, some of the most sanguinary
fighting of the war has been in
progress, and where casulties on both
sides probably have been larger than
those on such a restricted front in any
pr?vious batle.
A Berlin official report claims the
Germans have made progress here,1
but this is directly contradicted by
claims of the alies who say they are
holding all their positions and have
made some advances. M

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET
Liverpool Cables Pasted for First
Time Since July.
New York, Nov. 6.?With the Liv
erpool cotton market reopened today
for restricted trading in May and
June deliveries, there was a larger attendance
of members on the floor of
the local Coton Exchange. Liverpool
cables were posted en the regular
board for the first time since last July
The increasing interest of the trade
also was reflected in reports of a more
active business on the local curb and
December contracts traded rather free
ly at 7.60, later advancing to 7.62 with
sellers asking 7.65. May-June in Liverpool
fluctuated between 4,45 and
4.34d, closing at the latter figure,
which represented an advance of A
English points from the minimum
price fixed by the liquidating committee,
and as basis for international liquidation.
The local conference committee reported
rapid progress in the work of
securing signatures to the agreements
necessar yto complete the pro-rata
syndicate plan for taking over aold
interest here, and it was rumored late
in the day that it had also raised its
minimum price for liquidating straddles
to 7.75d for December.

WHAT THE FARMER DID. 1
A city wan recently visited his J
"country cousin." The man from the ?
city, wishing to explain the jova of \
metropolitan life, aaid: "We have cer- ]
tainly been having fun the last few i
days. Thursday we autoed to the j
country club, and golfed until dark. (
then trollied back to town and danced i
until morning." The country cousin
was not to be out done in the least, so 1
began by telling of some of the pleas- ]
ures of the sintple life: "We have ;
had pretty good times here .too. One 1
day we buggied out to Uncle Ned's 5
and went out to the back lot, where j
we baseballed all that afternoon. In j
the evening we sneaked up into the
attic and pokered until morning." A j j
sturdy old farmer who was listening:
not to be stumped, took up the cen- j
versation at this point and said: "I 1
was having some fun about this time <
myself. I muled out to the cornfield \ j
and gee-hawed until sundown. Then (
I suppered until dark, and piped un- <
til 9 o'clock, after which I bedstead- 1
ed until the clock fived, after which I
breakfasted until it was time to go \
muling again."

Christian Schools in Turkey.

Reports are coming in of the at- ,
tendance at the American board's ]
high schools in Turkey for the year
1913-14. The board carries twenty- \
one of those schools. The total at- J
tendance, was 5,504, of which 1,302 I
were boarding pupils. Of the nation
alitics, 4,488 were Armenians, 340 J
Greeks, 4f>0 Syrians, 123 Turks, 29 <
Jews and 04 other races. In religion 1
1,502 were Protestants, 3,435 Gregor- {
ians, 152 Moslems, while the others J
were divided between Orthodox, Roman
Catholics, Hebrew, and other
faiths. . .
i A i . ? %
i no attendance is gratnyingly larger
than last year, in spite of unsettled <
political conditions of the decimation
of the population in some localities
by emigration, and also in spite of the .<
transfer to the college list of some of 1
the schools which were included in 1
this list last year. I
It is encouraging, too ,to note that i
in spite of the hostilities of Moslems 1
to everything Christian since the Hal- j
kan wars, Moslem attendance is forty
two per cent greater than last year.
