ADMIRALTY TAKES STEPS TO FOLLOW WRECKJF EMDfll British Assert Cruiser's Destruction Shows Superiority of England's Gunners Dispatches Give Details.
BY LEASED WIRE. LONDON, Nov. 11. "Now for the Hext move on the German raiders." This was the slogan in admiralty circles today as result of the destruction of the German cruiser Emden by the Australian warship Sydney and the bottling up of the German cruiser Koenigsberg on the East coast of Africa. Other dispatches received from various sources today gave further details of the destruction of the sea rover Kmden. after the German cruiser had spent three months ravaging British shipping in the Orient. They show that the superiority of English naval gunnery again asserted itself, although the Germans fought gallantly after heavier ordinance. The Emden arrived off Keeling in the Coco's Island group early Monday morning, slipping in shore out of the jnlst like a flying phantom. A party of forty-three men were landed who emashed the British wireless station. "While they were engaged in this work, the Sydney which had been close on the trail of the speedy German craft drew within range and the Edmen, taking fright, steamed away at full speed. The Sydney opened fire at longe range and the Emden, being out was compelled to stand by and give battle. The Emden, owing to the location in which she found herself could not resort to flight. The first few shells fired fro mthe Emden were accurately aimed and some of them struck the Australian ship, but later the gunners seemed to lose their nerve for the Shells went wide of their mark.

Threats of a congressional inquiry Into the reasons for the rapid spread of the live stock plague are coming In from various quarters. Congressman-elect Steele of Iowa has demanded that the quarantine be raised in the Sioux City yards and throughout his district, contending that there has never been any trace of the plague there except from cattle shipped in.

FATHERLAND SEES VICTORY FRANCE Berlin Reports Good Advances in That Region of the Argonne Forests. BY FREDERICK WERNER, Staff Correspondent of luternational News Service. BERLIN, Nov. ll(By Wireless). The official statement on the latest activities on the western war front uses the word "good advances" in speaking of the conflict in the Argonner forest. This is the first time this expression has been employed concerning the battle in this district. The rout of a Russian battalion in Konln, Poland, by German cavalry appears to have been thorough, and while without great importance it shows the German soliders' display on the offensive. Special dispatches from Czernowitz, Bugavina, report, important movements of Russian troops are taking place in Bess-Arabia and East (lalacia, apparently as part of the campaigu aginst Turkey. Constantinople reports that the Turkish offensive movement on the Caucacaslan border continues despite the snow. The British government emphatically denies the report published by the Paris Temps of an outbreak among the Turkish Armenians. SUFFERS OPERATION O. I.

BY BERNARD BELANCOURT Staff Correspondent The International News Service. FLUSHING, Holland, Nov. 11. Bombarding the German positions along the coast both from the sea and air, the allies are attempting to drive 'the Kaiser's troops back into the interior of Belgium and thus remove the danger of an attack on the English coast. British and French aviators are making daring flights and dropping bombs upon the German trenches. On Tuesday the British warships shelled the Germans north of the Yser for several hours. Attempting to destroy a German division at Blankenberghe, on the coast southeast of Zeebrugge, an aviator, either English or French, dropped a number of bombs. One of them killed a boy and wounded a Belgian citizen. Numerous bridges in North Flanders have been blown up by the Germans, who have placed guns In the dunes of Hetland, apparently to shell any British warships that approach the coast. The Germans have been observed building deep trenches in North Flanders also. Some of these were later filled in.

COSSACKS RAIDING
GERMAN TERRITORY Czar's Cavalry Tears Thro East Prussia to Cut Lines of Communication. BY LEASED WIRE. PETROGRAD, Nov. 11. Another great raid by Russian Cossacks in East Prussia is in full swing. The dashing Cossacks of General Rennenkampf are repeating the drive of de vastation that early in the war cut the German lines of communication. This time the Cossacks have invaded East Prussia at the southwest of the Mazurian region, instead of at the north. Russian cavalry has already reach ed the outskirts of Soldau. Three railroads in that direction have been torn up and more than a dozen rail road bridges destroyed. Continuation of this raid into the district north of Soldau will cut off the German army that invaded the Suwalki district, and was driven back on the Mazurian on lakes. At the same time the Russian army in Western Poland is continuing its campaign for the capture of the mighty Austrian fortress of Cracow. The Austro-German forces driven from Czestochowa have rallied upon the upper Vistula and hard fighting is going on there. An official statement issued today says that the resistance to the Russian attacks cannot be long continued at this point, however. Upon the trans-Caucasian front, it is officially announced that the Russian successes continue, though reinforcements received by the Turkish troops have resulted in fierec attacks upon the positions gained and fortified by the Czar's troops. Numerous attempts have been made by the Kurds' cavalry to strike the rear of the Russian forces invading Turkish Armenia, and thus force an abandonment of the campaign against Ezeruni, but these have been repulsed with heavy losses to the tribesmen. AUSTRIAN SOLDIERS TAKE FOES FORTS BY LEASED WIRE. VIENNA, via Berlin and Amsterdam, Nov. 11. Austrian troops are gaining ground in the fighting that goes on night and day in Servia, according to an official report received here today from Field Marshall Potiorek. Servian positions in the mounthave been stormed and captured. The field marshal's report follows: "Severe fighting at the foot of the mountains on the line of Shabats and Losnitza continued all day Monday and into the night, some strongly fortified positions were stormed and taken by the Austrian troops. "South of Planlna our troops advanced farther into the district east of Losnitza, Kruhania and Libuovia. Some heavy skirmishes occurred with the rear guard of the enemy in which the Servians were repulsed. Numerous prisoners and some heavy modern guns were taken." CARR ADDS DISHES TO FINDJF CIGARS Mystery Deepens With Discovery of More Loot in Cornfield. The ownership of the cigars found by Clem Carr on his farm northeast of Richmond last week is still a mys tery and the mystery has been deepened by the discovery of other articles evidently stolen. The fact that there are forty-nine full boxes and an empty led to the belief that it was a shipment stolen from the railroad company. The railcompany did not lose them. Furthermore the boxes do not belong to Clem Thistlethwaite whose drug stores were robbed October 31. When Mr. Carr finished clearing the corn field, he had added to the cigars part of a set of dishes. The dishes are of good quality but as they were not packed, many were broken. Dishes and cigars not being generally handled by the same firms, adds to the mystery of the ownership. It is believed possible that auto thieves passed through Richmond in the past three weeks and being overloaded hid part of the loot in the field. The belief that the cigars and dishes were stolen in Richmond by persons living over the Ohio line has also been expressed. In a wholesale house, the good would not be immediately missed.
