TWO INSIDE OF 10 SECONDS SHOTS OF 7 BRIT ISH CRUISERS SENT SUBMARINE OF ENEMY TO THE BOTTOM. London, 6:05 a. m.—The Scotsman today elates that the German sub marine which sunk the British cruiser Pathfinder haa itself been sunk On Wednesday last, according to the account, a part of the British fleet on the lookout for German submarines became aware of the near pres ence of one. The British vessels divided when the submarine appear ed with only Its periscope showing. With grim patience the British cruiser waited for the reappearance of the submarine, which occurred In a dramatic fashion. BUDDENLY APPEARED. By some miscalculation, probain a final effort to escape the cruiser, the submarine's conning lower and upper structure suddenly appeared in the midM of the English vessels. The conning tower had hardly brok en the surface of the water when the first British gun marked It. The doomed vessel was within range of seven British cruisers and from every one of them guns crashed out. In ten seconds seven shots entered the frail shell of the submarine. GERMAN GEN’L STIFF IS SILENT Berlin, (vis Copenhagen and Lon don, 6:30 a, m.) —The general staff oontlnues silent regarding details of the operatlone In Franco blit In re sponae to a query today characterized the general situation as "favorable." A report which was In circulation la parliamentary circles Inst night that the operations had already re sulted In a great victory found no confirmation. At Antwerp. The Belgian army, which Is quite surrounded, according to statements hare, has been Httemptlng. through repeated sorties from Antwerp to play at least u pnrt In the war. (The censor has here deleted further refer ence to the operations around Ant werp). Reports come of small battles with scattered French contingents In south ern Alsace, near Thann, Gehweller end Ruiz, but with the exception of these there Is no news from the west. Pushing Reinforcements. The Germans presumably are push ing reinforcements forward and the announcementm that their armies with a united front have resumed the of fensive may perhaps be exacted In two or three days. Much probably depends on the rap idity with which the army under the crown princes completes the isolation of Verdun, in order to he in a position to resume major operations. RETREAT IF IION KLUGK HU TO FORECAST Paris, 8:45 ». m.—BtrateglHts find considerable difficulty In forecasting General von Kluck’s line of retreat. Having passed the line of Compalgnn, and Bolasnns where a defense had been prepared It wm thought he could not make a aland before the Meuse was reached. Yesterday’s corn muni - ratlona, however, created some bon fuaton on this point, tha flrat saying that the allies had crossed the Alsne Jtlver and the second stating that the Germans were trying to make a atand on the Alsne Immense Danger Nto doubt the line referred to In the latter communication Is that from Loon to ttolssons, which la the moat favorable position fyr a rally this aide of the Meuee. A halt there, how ever. la accompanied by Immense dan ger from a flanking movement. The rlpld censorship leaves room tor all aorta of hypotheala Another confusion haa arisen re garding the army of Crown Prince Frederick William, reported operat ing In the Forest of Argonne. Would Seem Impossible. The crown prince now Is said to have evacuated Lorraine; but this would seem Impossible for the army In Argonne has not yet succeeded In getting out and at last accounts was In great danger of being In part, at least, kept In. These troops are threatened by both Verdun and Rhelma and have only narrow and difficult passages to get through. Important developments for today In this region are hinted at but the war office keeps Its secrets well.

None of the sleeping cars left the track and the pasengers In these quickly formed rescue parties. one tnan In the chair car lost his wife and five children. When the ac cident occurred he was thrown clear of the car and swam to shore. His wife and children died while ho stood helplessly nearby.

WANTS THE EMPIRE CASE THROWN OUT Atlanta, Ga.—The methods used by certain hostile Interests represented by certain lawyers were strikingly Il lustrated In Atlanta this week when a veritable bombshell was thrown Into a case by the Kmplre Life Insurance Company. The bearing was on be fore the newly-created commission composed of the governor th*> attor ney-general and the Insurance com missioner. and the complainant was one Earl F. Candler, a policyholder In the company. A former suit by another complain ant had been dismissed by the su perior court and the company upheld, [ when the attorneys took the case ot I Candler before the Insurance commis sion The bearing was going on and Candler was not present, though rep resented by the said attorneys. Then the Fmplre l.lfe insurance Company threw Its bombshell It produced an affidavit written and signed by Candler, as follows: "Believing that I have been, through misrepresentation, used as a tool by certain parties. 1 desire to make this affidavit In order to rectify what I sincerely believe to be an Injustice to the Kmplre Use Insurance Company. At no time have I ever had nor have l now any grievance against the Em pire I.lfe Company which will warrant ! any such proceedings, it Is my de i *!re and I do hereby authorise the said attorneys to have dismissed at j once any and all proceedings brought by the said attorneys who have so misrepresented me. either before the superior court or the Insurance com mission.” The Introduction of this paper brought the hearing to a close Imme diately.

The Democrats Also in Control of Legislature —— Portland, Maine—The democratic vic tory In Maine’s gubernatorial election yesterday amounted to a plurality of 3,587, according to unofficial returns from all but 37 of the 621 cities and towns today.

Curtis of Portland, the democratic candidate for governor and Gov. Wm. T.

Gardner, the head of the ticket, showed a pronounced slump from that cast for Roosevelt.

No material change was anticipated from the complete returns. THE INFANTRY DECIDES BATTLE While there have been many discus sions as to the relative value of the different branches of an army there Is no doubt, according to a writer in the special war number of the Scien tific American of September sth, but that it Is the infantry that wins bat tles; W 1 lie It ,s probable the success of a battle will depend to a large extent on the support of the field artillery. It is certain that the principal and most Important arm Is the infantrj, which In practically every case must decide the final issue. The cavalry may be the first to be drawn Into a battle, and the artillery may destroy the enemy's artillery, but a battle is never won un .1 the Infantry haa driven back the enemy’s lines. The usual mode of advancing for the Infantry Is to deploy them in a line with a long interval between each sol dier. This, naturally. Is for the pur pose of jffcrlng a smaller target for the enemy. It makes lc more difficult, however, for the leaders to keep as good control over the men, and for that reason one of the objects of field artillery Is to make the enemy’s troops Uepldy early. The Infantry soldier is armed In all the countries with a rifle and bayonet. The rifle Is the weapon upon which reliance Is placed, the bayonet being used only as a last means, when in a hand-to-hand encounter with the en emy. Enthusiasm Was Tremendous as Bulletin Read London, 10:30 a. m.—A Petrograd des patch to the Central News describes a scene of tremendous enthusiasm on the first night of the Imperial grand opera season when a bulletin describing the destruction of the Austrian army be tween the Rivers Bug and Dniester was rend In the middle of the performance. The Russian hy.-nn was sung over and over again nnd the national anthems of the allies also were sung while the am bassadors and other diplomatic represen tatives of those countries bowed from their boxes. Tumultous demonstrations took place In the streets, the crowds almost fight ing to buy the newspapers. CHAMPION COTTON PICKERS.

S 16 11 22 21 AGREE OUTCOME DEPENDS ON RESULT OF BATTLES CROWN PRINCE’S ARMY While Critics of Both Sides Together on This Point, Wide Divergence of Opinion as to Accomplished Facts. Berlin Says One Thing, the Allies Another. London, 10:15 a. m.—For once the military critics of both sides agree that the outcome of the campaign in eastern France depends on the result j of the operations of the crown prince’s t army before Verdun; but on the ques -1 tion of accomplished facts the diverg ence of opinion is as wide' as ever. Berlin maintains that the invest ment of Verdun is now complete and therefore expects that within two or three days there will be a resump tion of offensive along the whole German front. On the other hand the latest official communication Is sued on behalf of the allies, states that the crown prince has been driven back and has moved his headquar ters from Sainte Menehould, south of Rheims, to Mont Faucon, about 15 miles northeast. Admitted by Germans. Berlin admits that the weakened German right wing has been turned back, but discounts the reverse by maintaining that it will have no ef fect on the general forward move ment to be initiated when Verdun falls. The very candid statement of Gen eral Joffro regarding the sort of war fare his troops are capable of wag ing indicates that the French are now in a position to take up the gage of battle on their own terms and in a country of their own choosing. The re-capture of Rheims probably means more to the French army, so far as morale is concerned than the rolling up of the German left wing beyond Verdun, so that the battle line on the Aisne, already the scene of sanguin ary fighting, Is today undoubtedly the scene of a stubborn struggle of the flrecest description. Lost One-Third. Petrograd reports that although news of damage from General Brussl lcffs army Is lacking and part of Prof. Stewart Here—Prof. J. S.

This Is an evidence that medical ed ucation is advancing." FOR RED CROSS FUND.

B. REESE. ——- Notary Publlo Richmond Co.^Ga. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER General Ruzsky’s force still Is to be heard from, it is estimated that the Austrian forces have lost one-third of their available personnel and two thirds of their artillery. It is evi dent that the Russian generals now hope to bottle up the Austrians and their German contingents in Przemysl which is an Austrian Metz. No hope is expressed for the early capture of this fortress, but It is expected tnat the remnants of the Austro-Hunga rian forceswill be kept within its walls until the end of the war. Also Contradictory. Reports of operations on the east Prussian frontier are contradictory. According to Petrograd, General Ren nonkampf has resumed the offensive after winning an engagement on the border while the same Russian sources report that the investment of Konigsberg is continuing. On the other hand Berlin states that Rennen kampf’s defeat is almost as great as\ the preceding Russian disaster in this* region. Interest in the naval phase of the war has been somewhat stirred by the news from Berlin of the destruc tion of the German light cruiser Hala by a submarine and unofficial story from a Scottish newspaper that the loss of the British cruiser Pathfinder has been avenged by the sinking of her submarine antagonist. Famine Possibilities. Outside the zone of military opera tions chief interest centers In the er forts of the German, Dutch and French governments to forestall the possibility of famine among their peoples by regulating the use of cer tain staples. The regulations not only forbid the use of more than a certain amount of these staples for purposes other than for food, but In struct the people In the most econo mical way to use them. MR. H. G.
