' ALLIED ARMY HAS ARRIVED AT GERMANY (Continued From First Page.) whre between that river and the riv er Oise and are trying to repeat the outflanking movement which they carried out on the ourcq last week. Rheims bas been reoccupied by the allies, but th? reports make no men tion of the neighboring fortresses of La Ferre and Laon, the recapture of which would not be difficult, as they ane constructed to resist attack from the north, and the south front ls rela tively weak. ?On the French right the Germans are falling back to Chateau Salins just across the Lorraine border, which has been tho ?cene of so many skirmishes since the beginning of the war. In Vosges and Alsace the situation remains unchanged, both cides re serving all their strength for the more critical contest in the west. The Russians are said to be con tinuing their successes in Oalcla and Poland. The armies of General Dankl, which bad the support of some German divisions, have been driven back across the fgrontier, which they crossed while the Russians were ad vancing on Lemberg and now, accord ing to the Petragrad reports, are in the angle between the rivers San and J Vistula, a trap into which the Rus- j slsn troops h-.ve been trying for some days to drive them. Their flanks are supported by the fortresses of Crao cow and Przemysl. Przemysl Ls being approached by the Russian army which captured Lemberg and which will now operate against the right wings of Generals Dankl and von Anffenburg, Mean while tho Russian army li? free to move west coward Thorn. Prussia, a town of some 27,000 inhabitants on the right bank of the Vistula, 26 milo* southwest of Bromberg, and Generai Rennenkampff can look for1? rein forcements for his army, which had to fall back with the German advance in EaBt Prussia. The Ru?sinus won their victories at Galicia and Poland not because they had superior forces but because, ac cording to correspondents, their ar tillery was superior to that of the AUF tr ians* and the Germans. Petrograd hopes that when General Rennenkampff sets his reinforcements ho can d?faut the Germans.

London, Sept. 15.-Besides invndinp | Galicia, tho Russians are suki to be operating extensively. [ip Bukowina', the chief, town ot which, Crernowitz. they occupied some weeks ago. It is believed that the intention of the Rus sians ts to go aa far as possible south of the Carpathian mountains, and, tn case the ? liles are successful, to de mand a n_w frontier in that direction when th? war .s over. The Russian general ha* said noth ing about the fighting in t?a3t Prus sia, except that the Russians .were rem netted to withdraw before the su perior forces. The Germans, how ever, claim auoihwr big Victory f?r General Hundcnberg's army in the fighting which, raged for four day? on the entire front. They say the Rus sians lost heavily specially in the bat tle of Ly ck, nins miles north cf Ute Russian frontier, while the German loose* Were considerable. Scattered British and German-for !ceo throughout Africa have been skir mishing wherever their frontiers meet and '?ho South African mounted rifles ar* reported tA jes* -cn a victory over the Germans, whom they ave said to have expelled from Ramatnadrift. This may be the fore runner of what may may develop Into a serious battle. The Germane have a strong force in German West ' Af rica and already have threatened the border? of the Dinon of South Af rica. Therefore the Germans who sympathised with the Boers in their war, against Great Britain soon may be opposed by the same Boers, who are now fighting tn Great Britain Comm Klee To Heel Thursday.
