BERLIN, September 11.- Some psychological studies of the sensa- tions of the soldieriwho faces ii show- cr of bullets, which were written by Colonel Margiarotti, of the Italian, army, are republished in Bohemia, a newspaper in Prague. The question how 8 soldier feels at the height of battle was»put to about two thousand men who have seer. service in Tripoli. Almost to a man they agreed that the sensation 0!D0I`1€l1C€d in battle itself was not as strong as the fear before the bat- tle. The most excitable moment was that in which the first shots were fired. The worst experience of most of the soldiers was having to stand still in lina of bnttie; it; was the greatest relief imaginable to be ordered to run forward. Some said their sensations in brittle included trcnibling, tears, hair standing on cud, hoarseness sn-d even yawning. All of the replies indicated that. the soldiers were largely influenced by the conduct of their immediate superiors. Asked whether it was patriotism, oath of iidellti' 01' A118 thoughts of penalties to which they were liable that led men forward to their duty, almost all itlie mon re- plied:-“'I went forward because my lieutenant weni: forward.” The offi- cers above lientenants were rarely mentioned, for the men did not conic much in contact with them. It has been asserted by many his- torians that such valiant soldi-ers as Henry IV. and Frederick the Great were trcmbi-ing during battles. GERMAN AVIATOR KILLED.

In Bosnia, the Moiitenegrlns and Servlnns have joined forces and are marching on to Sarajevo. The Allies at some unspecified place in France captured 1,500 German prisoners, besides field guns. The French have recaptured Mul- hausen. This border city of Alsace was first taken by the French, then retaken by the Germans, and now has surrendered a second time to the Allies. The Hamburg-American steamer Betlianic has been captured with 400 Gorman reservists and towed into Kingston, Jamaica. An Austrian torpedo boat has been blown up G2 miles south of Trieste through striking one of their own mines. oFFIcI/Qtroni (Special to the Guardian.) PARIS VIA LONDON, Sept. 12.- It is officially announced that the Ger- man centre ns well as their right wing is retreating. “Germans continue to retreat. The British have taken eleven cannon, and many prisoners.". This was just an official report issued here to-night. French military authorities, who, heretofore, had coniined thc informa- tion made public concerning military operations East of Prussia to laconic statements of a very general charac- ter, to-day gave lengthy descriptions of the most important battle since the beglnniiig of hostilities. Evidently the left wing of the Al- lied armies facing the northeast have been bearing the brunt of prelimin- ary engagements lii which the British took such prominent part. They are the object of highest compliments on the part of the French military men. The combat. according to oiiicinl an- nouncement, seeins to be developing into abandonment of at least advanc- ed positions held by Germans who, it is announced, are retiring along the greater part of the linc. This retire- ment is said to have been for forty- flve miles at sonic points. Furious fighting sometimes by French and again by Germans oc- curred about the centre of an exten- sive line in the neighborhood of Vitry Le Francois. Three great German armies com- manded by General Von Kiuck, the Crown Prince Frederick William and Duke Wiirtemburg effected a junction and repeatedly hurled themselves against the French poistions with the greatest vigor, but they were not able to achieve their seeming object of breaking the Allies’ centre and thus dividing the Anglo-French armies. French and British troops offered equally vigorous resistance, cveiitu- ally compelling the Germans to with- draw. Fighting continueil through- out last night and the Allies' position. it is understood. was improved today. A rainstorm caused great dif_ficiil- ties in marshy districts, but did not stop operations. A fusilado by .troops of artillery proceeded ull day. lt is believed the retiring Germans suffered more than the Allies from the storm, as their withdrawing columns were ciicuinlicrcd with baggage and ammunition wagons. _- IInEuLHAusEN ' I_§lI§cAPIunEa LONDON, Sept. 11.-Despatchcs from Basie, Switzerland, state that the French have recaptured Meulhauseii. 7!
