SIIIAIAARY 0F THE SITUATIDN
,There is little new in the war situa- tion. Despatches indicate that at some points in northern France the Allies are making decided gains, while in Alsace they have decidedly the better of the Germans.
lt appears to be taken.for granted
that Ostend is In serious danger of -falling into the hands of the Germans, who are now only 15 miles distant. 'Many of the citizens have been taken across to England, where they are being well cared for.
4>Despatches received this morning, as the Guardian is going to press, ion 'of the advance of German forces to- wards the northern French coast cities. This battle is now raging, hui; so far the Allies have everywhere checked the invaders.
ln the east the Russians claim
several victories, in one battle taking 1,000 prisoners and many guns.
A report gained currency in Halifax
yesterday to the effect that the North German liner Barbarossa had been captured by a British cruiser and was being towed to Halifax by li.M.C.S. Ni0b€. but it has not been confirmed.

Labaissiee the situation snows no change.
ln the region of Lens, between Arras
and Albert, our progress has been marked. Between Somnie and Oise there has been no change. The Ger- mans have cannonaded our line with- out, however, delivering any infantry attacks.
Second-on the centre between the
Oise and Meuse we have advanced in Life direction ot Uaronne to the north- west highway, from Barry--ou-Bac to Rlieims, and to north Prunsy. In the direction of Bein, several German Lrenches have been taken.
Between the Meuse and Moselle.
having repulsed during the night of October 13-14 certain attacks south- east of Verdun, our troops advanced on the 14th to the south highway from Verdun to Metz.
Third--on our right wing a partial
offensive movement undertaken by Germans at Banne Sapt, north of Saintdie has been checked.
BORDEAUX, Cct. 15.-Higli officials

The Allies continue to mako pro-
gress, this ofllcial continues. Several hotly contested positions which had changed hands repeatedly during the past few weeks, are iio\v held strongly by the French and Anglo- French. The situation is most cn- couraging.

NNN MIIE BNIIIEINIINI
LONDON. Oct. 15.-Two great
battles. one in northern France and Belgium, and the other in Russian Poland. both with a front of three hundred miles, have reached their height. But of their progress the public is allowed only an occasions ghmce UIFOUEII official commnnica tions, which frequently are widely a variance. From the French report, the western battle is going slowly bu surely in favour of the Allies. Under pressure of the troops of the Allie the Germans, who started to advance on Lalais and other French coast ports. have been forced to evacuate the left bunk of the Lys River. Last week fnrtlier east. in the Lens dis- trict. southward between Arras and Albert. where the Germans made an l1ll€mI>t to Work round the Allies’ left, English and French have made notable progress. Evidence that Ger. ni_iin assaults are being delivered \vitli less force is conveyed in the fact that between the Somme and Oise
ed with inf`antry charges. it is pos- sible they have withdrawn some troops from this position to strengthen the advance toward ilie coast, but this is considered risky, as it might permit the Allies to break through and inter- rupt communications with their armies lighting north of Aisne. In the centre the Allies have advanced. This shows n determined and partially successful attempt to drive the Germans away _from Rlieims, which is again under bonibardnieiit to-day. The famous cathedral is again the target of Ger- man artillery. The Germans are accusing the French of having used the towers for military purposes. The French advance in this vicinity also indicates an attempt to break the Ger- man front and force a wedge between the German right and left wings. French also claim an advance between
_the Meuse and Moselle. and after hav-
ing repulsed the German attacks to have reached south of road from Verduii to Metz. On the whole the British military critics consider the communication a a most cheerful one. They believe the German advance to the French coast definitely checked and that the advances reported here show that the Germans were compelled to weaken their centre ami left in order to strengthen their right. Again, how- ever, although the Germans failed to break the allied line and have them- selves been compelled to give ground, they are now in a beter position, hav- ing a front which stretches from the Swiss frontier to Antwerp and the Dutch territory, so that there are no flanks which the Allies can turn. The Allies can attempt to break it. This is believed to be what they are try- ing to do on the Belgian frontier.
Of the fighting in Northern Belgium
tho French communication simply says German troops coming from Ant- werp are marching toward the west. ()ii October 15th they reached Bruges district. The opposition offered to this advance was not serious and ap- parently only iiiteiidcrl to delay thein. The Germans occupy Bruges probably at the present tiinc, near Ostend. Tho main German force, however, is lic- lieved io have proceeded soufliwuril to assist the attempt of the Germans to establish themselves on the Frencli coast.
With the forces ol’ the Allies occu-
pying Ypres and doubtless other troops between that city and Niuw- port they probably will be compelled f.o fight tho next serious battle at one of the railway roads running east- ward froin the coast. Again they may jcln Von Kluck’s army, who oifciipics Lille and the country north of ihat city. Tho population of the coui\|v'_\ affected are rapidly making their way to the coast ports and to Englunl.

at Copenhagen state that large bodies of troops are being transferred from the Russian frontier to the French frontier, for an advance on Paris, and that ordinary train traffic has been suspended for 48 hours.

FOLKESTONEI. Oct. 15.-The Kenil-
worth, one of the last four steamsliips to leave Ostend, arrived early to-day, bringing 2,000 refugees. Among them were some Belgian soldiers, and as they were not wounded the inference was that the Belgiuns considered the taking of Ostend by the Germans in- evitable, and so caused the removal of everyone who otherwise would be likely to be taken prisoners.
The captain of the Kenilworth said
she left Ostend at 8 o'clock last night. No Germans were then in evidence. A small steamer reaching here to-day from Ostend by way of Calais reported that residents of Calais were in almost as much of panic as the people of Ostend, apparently believing the Ger- mans would soon be upon them.
