1°-*I* London Timor Declares German Re- ports Affect Opinion in Turkoy
, AN UNBLUSHING "FAKE"
_
Alleged Communication From an Im- aginary Member of “The Times"
Staff 'Widely Circulated in ' '
America
LONDON, Sept. 9.-The Times,
speaking editoi-iaily of the lack of ofiicial war news, saysz- `
"Premier Asquith said on Monday.
that the Government felt that the pub- lic was entitled to prompt, authentic information of what happened at the front and that the Government was making arrangements to tliat end. We wish we could see any signs that these arrangements were coming into force.
“Tho country has now been at war
for a month, and during that period the public has been furnished with only one adequate official statement regarding the land operations of the most powerful army Great Britain ever sent to tho Continent. During the remainder of this week no further important information has been vouch- safed. l "in a time of unprecedented crisis the press has a great patriotic duty to perform. It has to stimulate and deepen the public interest in this struggle, which is bound to last a very long time and on which the fate of the Empire depends.
"Germany is well aware of the
potent influence of the press, and the Empire depends.
FACSIMILE OF A “FAKE."
“Wo commend to attention the fac-
simile we publish today of a com- munication purporting to cmiiniite from a member of the staff a person wiio has never existed. This un- scrupulous coinmunication has been published in hundreds of newspapers in Western America. We could quote innumerable examples of the kind.
“Ono reason why Turkey is on the
verge of- war is that Constantinople is swamped by Germany with fabri- cutions about alleged British and l~‘rench reverses. Another example wo quote today shows that tho Ger- man and Dutch press is now being mobilized for efforts to detach France from the Entcnte.
V _"Germany has even approached the i‘inies and other English newspapers, offering for publication the reports of her general stall' upon the mili- tary operations.
“Our Government has done nothing
to counteract these activities. In a month we have had only one state- ment of any valiio. We have received from Pctrograd infinitely more iiifor- niation than from our own war office.
"Englishmen are apt to regard this
kind of propagenda engaged in by Ger- many with contempt. They believe tliat truth will prevail over untruth, no matter liow scientifically falsehood may be spread. ln the long run, their confidence is no doubt justified, but in the present circumstances the prac- tice of giving lies too long n start may be attended by serious drawbacks. Our attention is concentrated upon the war and its vicissitudes. We are apt
“to forget that the public in neutral
countries is as eager for war news and that its view of the course of the war is likely to be influenced hy the first news it receives. Our Gov- ernment in its justifiable anxiety to prevent the transmission from this country of news that nilght be of as- sistance to the enemy, has cstablislied a severe censorship on all outgoing telegrams and has thereby necessarily caused great delay hi their transmis- sion. But until very recently it has not taken adequate steps to insure that its own despatch to neutral corres- pondents of newspapersand telegraph agencies of neutral countries shall be given facilities for sending unexcop- tional news rapidly from this coun- try.
'rEi_EcnAivis Lone osi_Avir.o.
“Constant and well-founriod com-
plaints have becn nnidc by dozens of italian ami American correspondents of the treatment of their messages. It flllpears that in some cases these are detained from twenty to twenty-four :ind even forty-eight hours by the British censors."
The Times adds: “No time is to
be lost if the regrettable and ,indced, dangerous situation is to be remed- lcd."
The Morning Post publishes a mim-
ber of letters from correspondents ex- prcssiiig satisfaction at its publication of tho wireless dispatches from Bor- lin on the ground that, although they are doubtless exaggerated. they give the best available information, while thc French and English Governments withhold all news.
Another correspondent proposes
that. if the British Government can- not' see its way to allow war corres- pondents at the front, it should “self appoint reliable correspondents to give accounts of the fighting to the public.

SITUATION REVIEWED.
An oillclal communication issued
this afternoon says the situation re- mains stationary. The Germans right is retreating before the British and the French center is slowly advanc- ing. The situation on the right is unchanged. On the loft wing, nl- though the Germans have been rein- forced the _situation remains satisfac- tory. The enemy is retreating before the British army. At the center, our advance is slow hut general. On the right wing the action of the enemy embraces almost the great circle of Nancy. In the Voages, and in Alone; it remains unchanged. The Gorman army bosieging Maubengp has cap- tured that fort. The Russians are closing upon the Austrian army in Russian South Eastern Poland and Galicia and its future seems sealol.

i.oNnoN. september 9.-'rug Berlin
correspondent of the Nieuwe_Rotter- damsche Courant, the leading Davei of Holland,-writes under date -ot Aus.
-$0. . _ “Since 1870 the Germans' confi- dence in the infalllbility of the Gen- eral Staff of their army-has been as firm as a rock. ‘ This has given the people, since the outhreakiof the war. a strong self-confidence which has been very good for their nerves. Anx- iety about ths result has- not' Bot the upper. hand for a moment, and the people are waiting for ‘victory with a. calniness.whicb might satisfy even an Englishman of the genuine kind..
“The overwhelming serics\ of re-
ports of victories has not drawn forth any demonstrations of impor- tance, and even less does the idea that' they may have been purchased at ` the price of terrible sufferings make any impression. Even the vic- tory in sorely tried East Prussia. which was greeted in government circles with a deep nigh ot relief, pro- duced no striking manifestation in the street. ‘
“Still less did the news ol the seo.-
fight off Helligoland. While the Tagliche Dundschau was able to ex- tract from an official report through Woii`t"s agency a success for the German fleet on Saturday, in govern- ment circles it is regarded as in the highest degree disagreeable that the fleet in the last few days should have lost so much rccoiinitissancc material. lt must be born in mind that small and very fast cruisers are a specialty of the German naval force, and it is so mucii desired to inflict heavy blows on the Englishman, the inost hated of all enemies.
“‘The feeling is the same among
tho people as in political circles. The middle classes, who feel in their daily life what war means and who al- ready regard the present one as the iittermost limit, have no idea. of the cool calculating English tactics. The politicians here rather sec in Eng- land the land which has brought about the outbreak oi’ war by finely played intrigue in order 'to let dan- gerous Russia bleed licrs-elf to death, to thc end that against Gerina1iy-- even a victorious Germany-she may herself' acquire great advantages botii in trade aiul on the sea, and in order to make Franco entirely dependent upon her.
"The consequence of this opinion is
in the highest degree remarkable, \Vhether yen speak with a political! oi' a porter or siioenxaker, the some wish will always be expressed: We must, when \ve hav-.2 beatci. France, oi`i'er her peace on very izcccptablc terms in order to miike licr our ally to fight against England)
“The reader will perhaps learn with
surprise that no hostile attitude pre- vails hcre in Berlin against France. Not an ill woril is spoken oi’ the French. Their courage and tlielr tac- tics are praised, and they are regard- eil as dangerous opponents, but with knightiy respect. At the outbreak of the war it was said to me by various persons in authority: ‘We march against the French only with regret.’ Since that time in thc greater part of the press this attitude has grown stronger. I-fate for the Englishman, disdain for tshe Russian, profound scorn for the Japanese, and chival- rous dourness against thc French- mcn are feelings which one can nt- tribute to it.
DANGERS UNDERRATED “The dangers which threaten from
the Russian side are apparently much iindcrriiteil by the generalpublic. In any case the German troops which have had to‘withstand the ,attack of ii Russian force greatly superior in strength have suffered frightful losses. The first reports give a very small idea of the bearing of the Rus- sian attack upon thc general situa- tloii. It is not to be ns-.~umcd from this that thc military authorities have been lcd thereby to great optimism, but the latest reports ht-.ve been ii heavy disappointnieiit. One hears still of shell that do not burst, or cowardly flights, and of Russian sold- iers who lie coiiccaied in -their tren- ches. aini ond shoot, but who throw away their weapons as the Germans approach: but from other places come reports of the miirdr-rous fire of the Russians' iiifantry, and of their good artillery,
“However that nifty lie. it is cer-
tain that the dofeiidors of East Prus- sia lnive had a very, very great re- spoiisiblllty. There are crowds of refugees from East Prussia in Berlin. and-they relate gruesome stories of what has occiirred."
The correspondent refers to tho
more encouraging roports received by the Germans from the cus; front. I-le adds, lioweverr
"But after these defeated or wav-
ering niassos ii iiow Russian army ihreiitcned again. it is no wonder here in Berlin flint they are in a
hurry to bring the war in the west to an end."

VALCARTIER CAMP, Que., Sep-
tember 9.-Everything possible will be done by the authorities to keep the date 0( the departure of the Canadian expeditionary force as a secret.‘ When the troops wiildeave the mobilisation camp is not known officially, and when it ls known nothing will be said. The Canadian force will be conveyed across the ~Atlaiitic in the same manner as were the British soldiers to France.
Col. Williams, camp coiumandant,
when asked when it was likely that the division from Canada would leave for the front, stated that he had re- ceived no word. “It_ would be abso- lutely inadvisable to make any mention of the <1nr,e,” he stated. “ Every pre- cautionary measure will be taken in moving the men. We want no word to go across the Atlantic."
Ever since the opening of camp,
rumors have spread like wildfire about the day upon which tho troops would sail. It was generally understood this would be September 15, or a icw 'days later, but Col. Willams put at rest any of these 'reports to-night.

` Valcartier"is about sixteen miles from Quebec, and instead of carrying the soldiers on special trains over the Cunaiiian Northern there is no doubt that the division wil cover the distance on foot. This will be the last severe test for the men until they reach England or France.

“Tho seorosfon an average have
been"particularly fine,” said Colonel Williams. " Great progress has been made.”
There are 1700 targets in use every

As the engineers have built three
pontoon bridges across the Jacques Cartier River the artillery will be able to begin nctual practice in a day or two on the mountainous territory recently purchased by the Govern- ment. Targets have been erected and everything is iii readiness. Colonel Morrison, director ot' artillery, of Ottawa, stated today that the artillery, which comprises many of tho latest twelve. eighteen and sixteen pound guns, is on a war basis, and is ready to leave at any time.
The horses, although new, are con-
sidered oi' excelent calibre and are being gradually broken into shape.
“l believe tiio-Canadian artillery is
just as well trained :ia any of the Conliircntal batteries," said Colonel Morrison. “.I have ,every confidence in this section of the force.’

No more than 86 nurses will be
taken with the Canadian contingent. i‘hc Ited Cro:-is women may come hero for iffllhllltt before the contingent leaves, although nothing definite oi' this character has been given out. The nurses will be atached to two general iiospitnis, which will have accomodation up to five liundrcrl patients each. Tiiesc hospitals will be located nt the base of the line of communication.

100.000 men, but with inn reserve, and the "Landsturm" it will mount up to 250.000. Moat of this army is concentrated in the Dutch Liniberg around Maastricht.

PARLIAMENTARIANS MEET
Minister of War -Miilerand Han Evolv- ed Order Out of Chaos and Things Run Smoothly
BORDEAUX, via Paris, Sept. 9.-
Alexandre Miilerand, the Mznister oi' War, has appointed officers for the adniinlstratioii of the city's affairs durin'g his occupancy at the capital and has otherwise evolved order out of what at first closely approached chaos. Although overwhelmed with work, he has found some time to receive newspaper correspondents, to whom he expressed in high terms his appreciation of the discretion and good judginent shown by the press. M. lliillercnd promised to give to the corrcspondeiits daily what information he possessed so far as the cxigencies of the military situation permitted. The statements, he said, would be barren of comment or figures of speech but would be strictly true.
Bordeaux. has doubled in population
in the last few days. Ten thousand motor cars, varying from the humble Parisian taxi to the limousine have arrived and discliargeii heavy loads. All -thc hotels are overflowing and many of them and the restaurants have raised their prices, and so are reaping a golden liarvost, despite the edicts ot' the niunicipal nutlioritios. _The spirit ol’ gaiety as wcll as the Government has been transferred from Paris. '1`iic wide pleasant thorouglifares are thronged the proincnadcs and cafes are crowded. The city appears to be in the midst of festivities instead of experiencing it grave crisis in the naiioiinl history. ’i`lie scene in the new capital is in striking contrast with that in thc country districts. Coming frorh Tours to Bordeaux through the fninous vineyards one found the coiiiitrysiilc niouriii`ul and almost. deserted. There appeared to be none left except women and chil- firon, whose principal occupation was in waving their liandkcrcliiefs to the endless stream of automobiles speed- ing to Bordeaux with their burden of refugee l'arlsimis. At long intervals a little knot of niiddlc-aged reservists would be seen guarding a railroad bridge. All the other men hail gone to war. - A majority of the personnel of the Senate n,nii (‘lianibcr have arrived here. The Si-.nate occupies the Tom- ple of Appoilo.
