SITUATION GRAVE ON WESTERN FRONT CONCEDE GERMANS

(By Associated Press) PARIS, Oct. 3 The German situa-! tion on the western front is grave, the Frankfort Zeitung admits, adding that the German front is gradually crumbling. "The allied plan of attack," it adds, "is being carried out in an extraordin-! ary manner. It is an awful strain on ! our front. The situation on the Meuse where the American attacks are Just beginning is extremely critical part of the Chemin-des-Dames has had to be given up and the whole German front is gradually crumbling away under the allied attacks." The evacuation of Belgium is being discussed openly in Berlin, according to advices reaching here. Concerning Alsace Lorraine the German high command makes the suggestion that it be neutralized and joined to Luxemburg, thus making a buffer state between France and Germany. WHOLE GERMAN Continued From Page One. suffered terribly. British forces did not escape unscathed, nor has any day of the five which have been filled with hard, continuous fighting been without its price. t Enemy Position Danaerous. PARIS, October 3 While the enemy is still throwing reserves recklessly into the center of the vast batle line, in a desperate effort to stave off the evil hour of defeat, the allies continue to progress on the wings. Slowly but surely the splendid advance of the allied forces under King Albert of Belgium has forced General Ludendorff to withdraw his troops. On this portion of the front the position of the Qermans is getting dangerous and they must find an effective way to defend Lille, which with Metz is the pivot of the whole German system in France. Now that the German first line in Belgium has been broken, the line of communication between Ostend and Thourout is in peril and the Roulers-Menln railway is cut, it can be seen that the position of the enemy there is grave. Railroad Under Fire. The second line of railroad from Bruges to Courtrai is under shell fire. While this German army the fourth, is thrust back on its communications the forces on its right are in a risky position near the sea at Nieuport. Those elements on the left of the fourth army are thrown back at some points south of the Lys river and will rave difficulty in defending Lille. Latest news from the center of the line shows that the enemy resistance there is giving evidence of failing. LeCatelet has been taken in this sector. On the right General Berthelot is still driving the Germans away from Rheims region and General Gouraud is making slow headway in the Champagne. Everywhere the signs of battle indicate the approach of a critical phase. In addition to the general satisfaction over the situation in France, Paris is rejoicing over the news of the fall of Damascus. SUFFRAGE MEASURE BACK ON GALENDAR (By Associated Press WASHINGTON. Oct. 3. The fed eral woman suffrage amendment which failed in the senate last Tuesday by two votes less than the requisite twothirds majority, today was returned to the senate calendar in position for fu ture action.

Bulgi arias Allies Knew of Peace Move, Newspapers Claim (By Associated Press) GENEVA, Switzerland, Oct. 3. Bulgaria has not betrayed her allies, who were informed of every step she took through many European press channels, a Sofia dispatch to the Neue Zei tung of Zurich declares. It asserts also that, on the contrary, on September 22 for instance, King Ferdinand sent an urgent appeal to German headquarters for military aid, giving notice that he otherwise would be forced to open negotiations with the entente.

THE WAR TRAIN TONIGHT The United States "War Train" which ia touring the country in behalf of the Liberty Loan campaign, will reach the " Pennsylvania station at 6:10 tonight, according to information received by the county committee today. The cars will be parked near the east end of the station and the public generally is invited to visit the exhibition of war trophies. Capt. Myron Malsby of the , Richmond company, state militia, has received orders to have two squads of his men on hand to assist the soldiers with the train, to handle the crowds. The train will remain in Richmond over night and the car may be visited throughout the evening.

20 WORKMEN KILLED BY PENNSY TRAIN (By Associated Press) CLEVELAND, O., Oct. 3 More than twenty war munition workers were killed and 28 more injured, three probably fatally, early this morning when a Pennsylvania flyer smashed into a crowd of workmen from the Interstate Foundry Company at Bedford, Ohio, ten miles south of here, while the men were waiting oh the tracks for a work train. Ten ambulances and a dozen physicians have been sent to the scene. ENEMY RETIRES Continued From Page One. ed up if there is not a prompt re-location of the enemy's forces. There are reports of the Germans moving their heavy guns back from the western Flanders coast and rumors come from Holland that the whole coast may be evacuated. Cross Somme River. British, American and French forces seem to have definitely broken the Hindenburg line between LeCatelet and St. Quentin. They are across the Somme river, which was the strongest line of defense in this section. Ahead of them is rolling country over which they can resort to open warfare and then comes the Oise river with its line of railroad which affords the only direct means of escape for the Germans holding the front from LaFere southward to the Ailette. Before the Oise is reached, the Germans must either bring greater power into the line than at any time during the tremendous battle of the past week or must hurry its forces out of the St. Gobain sector to avoid envelopment. North of Rheims the French threat en to reach the open country. They have carried the hill positions which afforded excellent defensive positions and seem ready to bound forward across the lowlands to the east of the Aisne canal. If they succeed in car rying out this drive they will compel the enemy both to the west and east of them to retreat. Peace Demands Made. In the Champagne and Argonne the French and Americans are fighting hard and progress seems to be very slow, but the strategy of Marshal Foch evidently had this in view and foresaw that the drive north of Rheims would have a close relation with that near Verdun. With Damascus lost to the British, Turkey is again reported to have unofficially approached the allies with proposals for an armistice. In Austria the demand for peace is assuming a more definite phase. Bar-

on Von Hussarek, the Austrian pre- j tested against the decision of the Bulmier, has made an address before the garian government (Dresumablv the

lower house of Parliment in which he expressed the belief that efforts to end the war would be continued by Austria, and outlined some of the prob lems which a peace by negotiation would involve.

He served in the German army, and stated that he left that country because he did not like the military attitude of the Prussians. "We have been spreading American propaganda in Germany, and it is taking effect," Schauer said Wednesday. "It will not be long before the German people will wake up. They have been inocculated with German government. This government must be wiped out. We Americans of German origin have a distinct mission in this war. If we could only send word individually to the German people what fools they are to be the tools of such a government that has made them the outlaws of the world; but we cannot do this, so we are trying to do it as an organization.
