GIVES STORY OF LEMBERG OCCUPATION

Petrograd Correspondent Says Rout of Austrians By Muscovites Is Complete.

VICTORS ENTER STRONGHOLD UPON HEELS OF DEFENDERS

VI11 Itary Stores of Every Kind, Including Wireless Apparatus Intact, Fall Into Russians'

Hands.

LONDON, Sept. 5.—4 a. m—The Petrograd correspondent of the Post, describing the Russian advance on Lemberg, says: "The Austrians were concentrating two more army corps toward the east of their position to face the Russian Kiev district army but the Russians attacked before the concentration was completed. "On Wednesday morning the Russians were established all around the northern, eastern and half of the southern face of the capital. Lemberg 6tands high above the surrounding country, its obsolete defenses being supplemented by modern entrenchments. "It would seem that the route of the Austrian army, whose double duty it was to cover Lemberg and also the right flank of the Austrian forces in Poland, was so absolute that the Russians must have entered Lemberg at the heels of the runaways, for at 11 o'clock Thursday morning. Lemberg was entirely in Russian possession. The military stores of every kind, explosives, powder magazines complete, wireless and telegraph installations, in short the whole equipment of the important military center fell intact into the hands of the victorious Russians. "The capture of Halicz, which was protected by thirty small forts, entailed a harder task as the Russians were obliged to capture all the forts and the Austrians made desperate resistance. "The Russians had been fighting continuously for eight days after a previous week or ten days of marching. The fighting and marching troops of the Russian left wing covered nearly a hundred and fifty miles in seventeen days, capturing Halicez on the seventeenth after two days of hard fighting.

German Names Changed. "All towns in Russia with a German form of name were changed to tho Slav form. This is not due to the fact that Russia is at war with Germany but is Russia's appeal to the inexorible tribunal of history against the savage ferocity the unsoldierly nation consistently displayed towards helpless refugees. "A considerable sensation was caused here by the discovery aboard the German cruiser Magdeburg, which was recently blown up, of a number of cat-'o-nine tails, which were found in every

officer's cabin, all bearing signs of long and hard usage."

NEW POPE THINKS POINTIFF SHOULD BE AMIDST FIGHTERS

Says Intercession for Peace Must Be Made Personally, Not By Preaching From a Distance.

ROME, Sept. 4.—S:50 p. m.—(Via Paris, Sept. 5.—It was related here today that in conversations before his election, Pope Benedict XV repeatedly expressed his belief in the necessity that the pontiff should intervene with an appeal for peace, not ir.. a purely .evangelistical form but in precise diplomatic action. "The pope," he is quoted as saying, ^•must actually place himself amidst the combatants instead of keeping away and preaching peace and concord from a distance."

It is said he expressed these ideas in the conclave but at the same time showing such absolute neutrality towards the belligerents that it brought about his election as pontiff.

that seven of the German destroyers, which the British fleet engaged off Helgoland light, and which escaped in a damaged condition, when three" cruisers and two destroyers were sunk, have reached Kiel. Others were so badly injured that they went down before reaching that refuge.

Besides the prince of Wales fund for those who have been thrown out of soldiers, other funds are being raised or those who have been thrown out of work through the war.

GIVES ESTIMATE OF LOSSES.

Writer Says Germans Have Paid Heavy Price in Advance. LONDON, Sept. 5.—3.09 a. m.—The Daily Mail's correspondent at Gisors, a French town near Beauvais, estimates the total losses of allies at 40,000 and the losses of the Germans at 200,000. He says a moderate estimate of the German losses places them at 20 per cent at least.

Sheer weight of numbers has pushed the Germans forward at the amazing rate of twenty-five miles a day, the correspondent adds. The Germans have shown no superiority in artillery or transport. The rapidity of their advance has been due largely to their use of the automobile for transportation.

The British commissariat has perfected the following menu for each man on the firing line:

Daily, a pound of bread with cheese and jam, a pound and a quarter of bacon, a pound and a quarter of beef, with tea and rum two ounces of tobacco weekly.

That is a question that has been asked many times, not only in this country but in Europe itself.

There is no doubt that the air fleets have made a powerful appeal to the imagination. And this appeal has been

INDIAN TROOPS SOON WILL CROSS CANADA

Arrangements Made for Transporting Seventy-Five Trainloads—Russians to Follow.

ST. PAUL, Minn., Sept. 5.—A message from Winnipeg to a local newspaper last night said that seventyfive train loads of East Indian troops would pass through Canada bound for the battlefields in France within the next two weeks. The two divisions from India, which Premier Asquith referred to in his Guild hall speech yesterday, will be transported on these trains, it is believed.

Large numbers of British Indian troops have been passing through Winnipeg in the last few days according to reiorts.

It is rumored in Winnipeg that Russian troops will go through Canada soon, as well as the Australian and New Zealand continent of 3,000, that being the shortest and quickest route to the front from the far east.

News relating to the troop movements is being sharply censored in Canada.

NO OFFICIAL NOTICE YET.

German Ambassador Has 8a!d Nothing About Supplies to Br.tlah Ships. WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.—State department officials reiterated today that they had heard only through news dispatches of the protests by the German Ambassador Count Von Bernstorff against the furnishing supplies to British cruisers or the use of wireless to British ships from American shores.

The use of the dirigible at Antwerp, when bombs were dropped on the sleeping city, is the only Instance in which the huge, floating warcraft invented by Count Zeppelin proved successful.

CANNOT SEE IHE JOKE

Issues Statement Resenting Wit of American Newspaper Editorials and Cartoons.

WASHINGTON, Sept 5r—The British embassy was still without advices from Constantinople today, but Ambassador A. Ruston Bey issued a statement resenting American newspaper wit at the expense of the belligerent powers, in which he classified Turkey as one of the nations which had "not yet" been drawn into the vortex of war. "What I will call the funny column in the American papers oontains jokes, and not infrequently Jibes, at the expense of one or the other of the European countries engaged in the conflict now raging or expected to Join in it,* said he. "Cartoons are also indulged in as a means of turning into ridicule the misfortunes or straits of those who are fighting or the terrible anxiety and doubts of those who have not yet been drawn into the bloody vortex. Turkey has come in for much of this journalistic pleasantry. Speaking for my country, I will say that while wit is a precious quality and many of the writers of the funny columns undoubtedly possess large measures of it, it betrays a lack of human feeling and delicacy, which are much more precious than wit, to see in the disturbed or threatened destinies of a nation which has always lived on friendly terms with the United States, an occasion for inducing laughter or even smiles. Hatred, revenge, envy, all the strong passions, may with excuse exploit such situations, not humor, which is always accompanied with balance of mind. "I appeal to the American public against such excesses on the part of the papers which serve them."

TAXATION OF MOVIE FILMS FAVORED TO RAISE REVENUE

Almost Certain That Beer Will Bear Burden—Tobacco Considered Likely to Escape.

WASHINGTON, Sept 5.—Taxing moving picture films for war revenue was urged before the ways and means committee today at deliberations on the measure to raise $100,000,000 in response to President Wilson's message. One member of the committee showed testimony of film manufacturers telling of profits aggregatinf 100 per cent.

Opposition to a tax on railroad tickets and gasoline developed. Scores of taxable items were discussed. That cigars and tobacco would not be taxed seemed assured in the opinion of a majority of the members of the committee. An increased tax on beer is assured. Domestic wines probably will not escape. Some members approve a tax on commercial instruments.

WRIGHT DENIES RUMOR.

Vienna Thinks Allies are Hopelessly Lost

LONDON, Sept. 5.—3:06 a. m.—A young woman refugee, who has arrived hero from Vienna, had this to say of the situation in the Austrian capital: "The impression prevailing in Vienna is that the allies are hopelessly beaten, that England is on the point of starvation, that the German fleet is blockading the English ports, that eggs in London cost twenty-flve cents a piece, that the English fleet is helpless, and that Germany has sown mines all about the English coast. "There was no way to find out the news, as the postal and telegraph service are censored, and no outside newspapers are permitted to be brought irta the city."

to raise a tax by the assessment of all the lots and lands of the city exclusive of the improvements, and the tax levy must be high enough to make that fund sufficient each year to take care of all the Improvements in that year. "The finance committee found that in order to take care of all the street intersection Improvements this year, with the finances in the condition they were, the taxes would have to be increased about seventy cents. The finance committee found there wag sufficient funds on hand at the time they made the investment in road bonds, together with the other funds that would come in, to take care of the street intersection cost out of the general fund and they communicated this fact to the council when the oouncil was in caucus, going over the question of taxes, and it was decided to call a special meeting at once, which was called by serving all the councilmen present, and then unanimously voted to transfer the $30,000.00 remaining unexpended for bonds back into the city's funds to pay for street intersection. This will enable them to pay off the $23,000.00 worth of street intersection certificates already issued, at once."

It was reported some of the contractors were threatening to mandate the council to compel them to raise the tax rate to a sufficient amount to take care of the cost of street Intersections.

Controller Griffith said: "If the city had Issued street intersection certificates on all the $80,000.00 worth of worfc, they would all bear Interest at six per cent, and run Indefinitely, unless the taxes were raised, and the Harrison township road bonds would only bring in four and one-half per cent, and therefore the money invested in those bonds would be losing the city one and onehalf per cent, as long as the street intersection bonds were out-standing."

The relations between the mayor and the city attorney were also further estranged by the act of the council in passing a resolution that City Attorney Batt should have entire charge of the city's cases before the public utilities commission.

It was said that the mayor had taken steps to engage Attorney Eph Inman, of Indianapolis, to represent the city, and the council's resolution meant that the council thought the city attorney should retain direction of the cases.

City Attorney Batt Informed the mayor that he would accept notice of his dismissal when the mayor notified the city council of reasons therefore as provided by law, Batt said.

Griffith's Statement.

Mr. Griffith said when seen: "My dismissal is the climax of a number of differences between myself and the mayor as to the manner in which the city controller's office should be conducted. My position was that it should be conducted according to the law, and that I insisted on. I have been hampered and embarrassed by the differences which prevailed between the mayor and the city attorney, matters arising continuously on which legal advice was necessary. The city attorney was the source I should go to. The strained relations between the mayor and Mr. Batt made the transaction of the business of the office difficult. As to the purchase of supplies outside of the city, I acted on orders and instructions to purchase supplies where the city could buy the cheapest and the home merchant and home seller always got the preference If it was possible to so give it I believe Mr. Roberts has acted precipitately. Every act of mine has been governed by the best wishes for the mayor and his entire administration."

"Therefore, Inasmuch as she was asked by her ally for assist&noa, Japan could not but comply with the request to do her part"

Germany an Obstacle.

Germany's possession of a base for powerful activities in one corner of the far east was not only a serious obstaole to the maintenance of permanent peace, but it also conflicted with the immediate interests of the Japanese empire, Baron Kato explained. "The Japanese government," he continued, "therefore resorved to comply with the British request and, if necessary, to open hostilities against Germany. "Desiring, however, to solve the situation by pacific means the Imperial government on August 15 gave the following advice to the German government: (Here Baron Kato read the text of the ultimatum communicated to Germany on that date.) Until the last moment of the time allowed on August 23 the imperial government received no answer and thus the imperial rescript declaring war was is sued the next day."

Baron Kato referred briefly to Aus-tria-Hungary, which had, he said, very limited interests in the far east and with which Japan desired to maintain peaceful relations as long as possible. At the same time it appeared as if Austria-Hungary also desired to avoid complications.

American Ship Merion, Flying British Flag, Receives Orders From England's Ambassador Here,

PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept 6.—The American .steamer Merlon, flying the British flag, which arrived here this week from England with four six-inch guns mounted on her decks, sailed for Liverpool and Queenstown today with the big weapons stowed away In the hold of the ship.

When the Merlon arrived the German consul at this port called attention of the federal authorities to the fact that the British liner had guns mounted on her deck, and the case was referred to Washington. The Washington authorities had failed to take action before the Merlon's sailing date, and the British ambassador instructed the steamship company to dismount the guns.

The Merion sailed with a small number of passengers and a general cargo.

Many kilometres have been gained on the road to Paris under the harvest moon, but for which the men would have been sleeping. "That the Germans are In a great hurry is evident They advance regardless of risks and sacrifices, crushing down resistance by their weight of numbers and carried forward, by the hope of striking a mortal blow at the western foe before the eastern enemy Is at the gates of Berlin. The speed at which they advance is the cause of constant wonder to people who know the country and the distances. "At a village which was full of troops a few days ago no attempt was made to halt them. The allies' troops fell back and save for rear guard actions the Germans seemingly marched from Lafere to the lines of Paris unopposed. "The march of the German right on* Paris is notable for Its straight course as well as its cyclonic speed and force. Leaving Lille, Arras, Amiens and Beauvais untouched, they have marched like an arrow's flight,, deviating neither to the right nor the left.
