Wounded British Private Describes Battle Which Broke In Upon Sunday Quiet.

ARTILLERY OF GERMANS PRACTICALLY RAZES TOWN

battle Between Aviators, During Which German Flyer Is Killed, One of Features of the

Attack.

LONDON, Sept. 12.-5:40 a, m.—A British private, who was wounded In the fight during the retreat from Mons, tells the following story of the battle there: "It was Sunday and the British regiments at Mons were merry making and enjoying themselves in leisure along the streets. Belgian ladies, returning from church, handed the soldiers their prayer books as souvenirs while the Belgian men gave the men cigarettes and tobacco which was even more welcome. "About noon, when the men were beginning to think about dinner, a German aeroplane appeared overhead and began throwing out a cloud of black powder which is one of their favorite methods of assisting distance batteries to get the range. "No sooner had the powder cloud appeared than shrapnel began to burst overhead and in a moment all was confusion and uproar. But It did not take the regiments long to get into lighting trim and race through the city to the scene of operations which was on the other side of the small canal in the suburbs. "Here our outposts were engaging the enemy fiercely. The outposts lost very heavily, most of the damage being done by shells. The rifle Are was ineffective although at times the lines of contenders were not more than 300 yards apart.

Retirement Ordered.

"The first reinforcements to arrive •were posted in a glass factory, the walls of which were loopholed and we doggedly held that position until nightfall when we fixed bayonets and lay in wait in case the enemy made an attempt to rush the position in the darkness. "About midnight orders came to retire over the canal and the main body fell back through open country, being kept moving all night. When daylight arrived It was apparent from higher ground that Mons had been practically blown away by the German artiling reilery. Isoth9' "Throughout the morning we conevery ilnued to light a rear guard action tout i&syflfe-'trteady march In retreat did not stop until 6 o'clock In the evening when the British found themselves well out of range of the German artillery in a quiet valley. Here all the troops were ordered to rest and eat. "During the next afternoon both the

German and British armies watched a duel in the air between French atid German aeroplanes. The Frenchman was wonderfully clever and succeeded In manouvering himself to the upper position, which he gained after fifteen minutes of reckless efforts. Then the Frenchman began blazing away at the German with a revolver. Finally he hit him and the wounded German attempted to glide down into his own lines. "The glide, however, wound up In the British line, near my detachment. We found the aviator dead when we reached the maohlne. We buried him and burned the aeroplane.

Germans in Pursuit.

"At dusk another halt was made for food and as the Germans had fallen behind the English spent a quiet night. At dawn, however, we found the Germans close at our heels and several regiments were ordered to prepare entrenchments. "It was not long before the Germans found the range and began tearing up those rough fortifications, concentrating their fire on the British batterries, one of which was completely demolished. "As It became evident that we must leave these guns behind and continue the retreat, an officer was seen going around putting the guns out ofTTctlon so that they would be of no use to the Germans. His action required cool bravery because the Germans, having found the range, continued firing directly at these batteries. "Then a retreat was ordered. We were not long In doing the retiring movement. "The writer was wounded at this time by a Maxim bullet For a moment I thought my head had been blown off but I recovered and kept on running until I reached a trench where I had an opportunity to bandage the wound. I rushed off to the ambulance but found the doctors so busy with men worse off than I that I went back to my place in the line."

Lose Great Ammunition Train Britistt—Retreat Disheartens Soldiers of Kaiser.

Great Battles of Two Centuries Forces Engaged and The Losses

AUSTEKLITZ

Gen. Pau scored a tremendous advantage by capturing an enormous ammunition column seven kilometers (4H miles) long. This he destroyed, leaving the Germans very short of ammunition. The correspondent adds: "The effect of the long, barren marches must have an enormous influence on the conscript army. The huge losses in killed and wounded, the paralyzing spectacle of pyramidal funeral pyres on the battlefields each night and the procession of long trains of wounded must give the educated Germans In the ranks food for thought. "It was all very well while the Germans were marching forward, but the retrograde movement Is trying on the nerves. On the other hand, the French army, stiffened by great reinforcements of men, who are fighting for all they hold most dear, have offered a resolute and magnificent front to the enemy, for the French are twice as dangerous in attack as in defense."

GERMANS PLANNING COUP?

Paris Writer Thinks Allies May Fail Into Trap. LONDON, Sept 12.—4:58 a. m.—The Paris correspondent of the Express thinks that there is a distinct possibility of a German attack by the extreme right of their army coming toward Paris from the south of Amiens.

The masses of the German armies seem not to have been engaged thus far, he says. They came very close to Paris and are now being pushed back with great ease by the British army, and it may be that their object is to draw the allied forces toward the east, thus removing them from Paris and epeposing them to the danger of running their heads into a prepared position.

The Daily Telegraph's correspondent at Nanteuil, department of Gise, in a dispatch dated Thursday, dealing with the turn of the tide in favor of the allies, gives the impression derived in conversation with wounded French officers from the fighting line. From this he learns that the German army, meeting for the first time troops equal in number to theirs, has been rolled back and sorely troubled and the right of the army, composed of some of the finest German forces, has retired so far that the center must give way or risk the line of communication.

Declares Enemy Surrendered in Companies and Battalions, and Abandoned Equipment.

PETROGRAD (via London), Sept. 12.—6:13 a_ m.—The Warsaw correspondent of the Novoc Vremya gives an account of the fighting beyond Lubin, Russian Poland. His dispatch follows: "The Russians were compelled to take several lines of fortifications, step by step, ejecting the Austrians from the trenches. I rode along twenty miles of abandoned trenches and saw many guns and much equipment which had been thrown away by the Austrians. Taking up a position near our artillery, I watched the progress of the fight. "The enemy was deluged with a hail of shrapnel alternating with gun fire, and his line of retreat was marked by burning and deserted villages. Along the roads In the direction of Lubln were marching Austrian prisoners who were surrendering in companies and battalions. "For six hours I watched the battle. The artillery flre was maintained in the distance above a wood, shrapnel bursting and white clouds rising olver the horizon. Suddenly from the wood appeared a black mass, which on growing clearer was seen to be an Austrian battalion which fled out and surrendered. At night the thunder of the cannon alternated with the crackle of rifle Are. The enemy's artillery was located and silenced by ours."

BRYAN SAYS WAR ERA IS NEARING IIS

Speaking At "Star Spangled Banner" Celebration, Secretary Declares the Present Conflict Will Be Last.

BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 12.—Com lng as the personal representative of President Wilson, who found himself unable to attend. Secretary Bryan spoke here today at the "Star Spangled Banner" celebration. The subject of the address was "The Flag," and Mr. Bryan said he found his text in the line with which the poet closed each stanza of the national anthem, "O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave." The development of American Ideals, the secretary said, "had brought with it a wider freedom and a new type of courage—a constant growth in the spirit of brotherhood."

The constitution of the United States, he said, had become a pattern copied by other nations and now was to be seen everywhere on the waning of monarchial authority.

Americans never had hesitated, Mr. Bryan said, to die if necessary in defense of the authority for which the flag stood. "But the war era has ended in the United States," he added, "and is drawing towards Its close in foreign lands the convulsions through which Europe Is now passing are but the death throes of militarism."

A fvlsit of inspection was made to the steamer during the forenoon by Secretary Daniels of the navy, and this, coupled with eleventh hour drill Instructions to the new crew, was assigned as the cause of the delay in getting away.

BOYS AND GIRLS AFTER BUFFALO BILL PRIZES

Many Essays on Famous Scout Being Received By Tribune1—All Pupils Eligible.

"I believe Buffalo Bill is the nicest man I ever saw. I like his big hat and his whiskers and his Indians."

All of which includes the manner a pertain little Terre Haute girl took of telling her answer to the question: "Who is Buffalo Bill?"

And that's what the Tribune wants to receive in its contest for which it is offering 38 prizes—Just the honest, straight-from-the-heart answers to the question "Who is Buffalo Bill?"

Tou know the reason for it all, don't you? Buffalo Bill Is coming to Terre Haute, coming with the Sells-Floto circus and Buffalo Bill (himself) which is to exhibit here Tuesday, September 22. And because of the great interest in the coming of the famous scout the Terre Haute Tribune has decided to hold this contest for them.

The prizes? They are to run as follows: A first prize of $15, a second of $10 and a third of $5,, fifteen fourth prizes of two reserved seats to the circus and twenty fifth prizes of one reserved ticket.

And that means, of course, that at. the circus you will see Buffalo Bill there too the man you've written about, with his riders, his ropers, hia Indians, his vaqueros, his soldiers and his ranch girls, all combined in the producing of the great spectacle "Warpath," which depicts the progress of the west from the time of the frontier to the present day. And there'll be other things too, you know, the circus clowns and the acrobats and aeriallsts, and horses and races, and everything else which goes into the making up of a great big circus.

Then, too, should you win one of the 38 prizes, you will receive It directly from the hands of Buffalo Bill himself. The famous scout will appear before the office of the Tribune Tuesday, September 22nd, the day of the show, and, with his escort of great Sioux Indian warriors standing nearby, distribute the awards.

You know the conditions, don't you? The answers must be kept within as short a space as possible. And it must be addressed to the Contest Editor of the Terre Haute Tribune. All ready? Then start writing.

BEASLEYS BACK HOME AGREE WITH SHERMAi

Local Banker and Family Spent So Time In Europe's Seething War Zones. $h4

Agreeing with Sherman that war all the general claimed for it and tn some, John T. Beasley, president the United States Trust Co., arriv at home Friday afternoon, accompani by Mrs. Beasley, and their son, io Hope, after some experiences in near war zone on the continent tin were interesting if annoying and dii comforting. The party, with a cousl of Mrs. Beasley's, were In Gene* when war broke out, and were coir pelled to stay there for nearly tw weeks before they were able to transportation to Paris, en route England. They had some embarrasi ln« experiences regarding their nances, owing to the fact that tt hotels declined to accept bank draf or express orders, but Mr. Beasley

wj

able to overcome these with compare tively little difficulty. Their troubli really began when they started fro Geneva for Paris. There are no Intel national through trains on the cor tlnent now, and during the two weel they waited in Geneva all the tralr in Switzerland were taken over by tl government for the mobilization of Swiss troops. When this had be accomplished to such an extent as enable them to travel, they were co: pelled to disembark at the Swi boundary and take French train Three times between the Swiss bord and Paris their train was con mandeered by the military authorltli for troop transportation.

They were politely but firmly glvt to understand that they would have get out, and no information could 1 furnished aB to when they could another train. The trip from Gene^ to Paris usually takes ten hours bi they were thirty hours in making During all this time they were wltl out food, except the small quantll they had started with for lunch, ar without water, or sleep. EJverywher Mr. Beasley says, were there evldenci of war. Soldiers were always to seen, and the railroad stations alor the line were being utilized for tl wounded. All along the line could I seen grocery and delivery wagons froi Paris that had been seized at the oui break of war and used for transpoi tation purposes for the army comml sary. Arrived at Paris after all the: difficulties the party lost no time crossing the channel from Boulogn which was the only port on the Frenc coast from which vessels were permi' ted to sail. The party spent some tin In London, where Mr. Beasley saj much enthusiasm was being shown the war. Steamship sailings are uncertain, he says, that although 1 had been booked on the Red StJ liner Lapland for some time he .dV not know until an hour before the sh! actually sailed on September 1, that would leave on that day.
