LONDON, Aug. 1i0.~Whiie reports from the eastern war theatre, embrac- ing the region from tloiirlaiid to South- Eastern Galicia, indicate that the Ger- mans and Austrians are still pressing the Russians hard in combat, or ton- aclously following them in. retreat, military observers are hoping that the approaching eqiilnoctial season will limit further forward movement of the Teutons and force them to be content with the fruits of their past successes as the winter season falls upon them. Both Berlin and Vleiina lay emphasis on the statement that Field Marshal Von Hindenburgs forces along the Dvina River in Courland have renewed their activities which were brought to a sudden half recently with the suc- cess of the Russians in holding Riga as ii menace to Von l~lindenburg‘s rear. ln South-Eastern Russian and in Brest-I Litovsk region the Austrians and Ger-I mails are chieflycoiiceriied in driving Grand Duke Nlcholas's armies further into the Pripet marshes, evidently with the purpose of repeating the early suc- cess of the Germans in the Mazurian Lake region of East Prussia. To the north-west, in the sector lying only a short distance t.o the east of the East Prussian frontier, Berlin reports an advance of Tentons and the capture of the town of Lipsk, lying just to the west of the fortress of Grodno, upon which the aims tif the Ggrmans now are evidently centred. With the open- ing of thé autumn`months military observers are directing attention to the fact that thc Russian equinoctial storms are soon due to begin. They assert that they are the danger limit to military operations in the eastern field. lt is recalled by some of these _o_li§erve§__tha_t_tlie autumiial equinox inarlEd the tiirnirTgTpo`inT°ih`the Napol' ieonic campaign.

IlALTIllIlT IIISEIISSTS zirriuii iziiiiiis In Whole Year 89 Persons Killed, 220 injured. LONDON, August 29.--“No soldier or sailor has been killed. or even wounded, _and only on one occasion has damage been ipflicted which could, by any stretch of language, be described as of the smallest military importance," says Arthur J. Balfour, First Lord of the Admiralty, of he 'Zapp‘etin"i‘n1ds ' mr England rin' ii: letter ~ to a correspondent who had complain- ed that the British accounts of these raids were meagre, while the German reports on the sameevents "are quite rich in lurid details.” “Tho reason," says Mr. Balfour in his letter, “ls quite simple.. Zeppelins attack, under cover of night, and by preference on nioonless nights. in such conditions, landmarks are elu- sive, navigation difficult, 'and errors inevitable, and sometime; of surpris- ing magnitude. The Germans con- stantly assert, and may sometimes be- lieve, that they dropped bombs on places which, in fact, they never ap- proached. “Why make their future voyages easier by telling them where they blundered in the past? Since their ,errors are our gain, why dissipate them? Let us learn what we can from the enemy, but let us teach him only what we must.. Nobody will, I think, be disposed to doubt that this reti- cencqrhs judicious. But the question may still be asked whether it is used not ni_erely to embarass the Germans but unduly to reassure the Britlsli. "That it has caused milch suil‘eriiig A0 11111115’ innocent people, unliapplly, is certain. but even this result, with all its tragedy, has been modified out of all proportion by ill-informed rii- inors. l am assured by the home of- fice that during the last twelve months severity-one civillaii adults and eighteen children have been kill- od. and that 189 civilian adults and thirty-nine children have been injur- ed. Judged by numbers, this cumula- tive result ot’ many successive crimes does not equal the single effort of a submarine which, to the uiiconcealed pride of Germany, and the horror of 9-II the W0l‘ld. sent 1,195 uiioffending civilians to the bottom in the Lusi- taniu. "Yet, it is had enough, and wo may well ask what military advntge has been gained at the cost of so much innocent blood." TRAIN CRASHED INTO AUTOMOBILE. HAMILTON.
