SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 27. German Attacks Along The Entire Front Repulsed REMARKABLE PREPARATION IN MASONRY, CONCRETE, BY GERMANS, ON AISNE Statement Made That For Years Stone Had Been Cut in French Quarries By Present Enemy As Foundations For Factories Never to Be Completed London, 1:10 p. m.—The British mili tary experts who last week pVedieted that Germany would maintain the de fense in France only while transferring troops to the eastern arena of war, have not. generally speaking, been borne out. Although the position of the invaders at Franca at the center is suited for such tactics—and siege warfare has prevailed for days—the fighting on the ends con tradicts them. “Correspondents telegraphing today from Amsterdam and dating their des patches from France,” en expedient re sulting from ti e expulsion of the writevs from anvwhere near the scene of opera tions. again dwell on the exce ent char acter of the German entrendiments. It seems that in many places along the Ainse battle front stone quarries dot the hi lsides, a majority of which have been in German hands for yea Vs. It would appear that during several weeks before the opening of hostilities thou sands of tons of stone were cut from these quarries, later to be used for the construction, by the Germans, of bar riers against which the heaviest artil lery has little effect. “Boring for Water.” An Englishman, writing from the Maubeuge district, reveals some of the remarkable preparations which he al leges were made by the Germans for the present war. This man in his let ter says: “The Germans installed, a long time before the war, certain portions of some of their big 42 centimetre guns on a farm, under the pretext that they were boring for water. They put in founda tions of concrete so that everything was ready. As their guns had a longer range than those of the Maubeuge forts It was not difficult for them to con quer.” LICENSE ISSUED JO ME Permission Given By U. S. de partment of Commerce to Operate As a ‘‘Limited Pub lic Service Station” to Jan. 1, 1915 Washington, D. C. —A license to ope rate the Sayville. L. 1., wireless sta tion as a “limited puudc service station.” was issued today ny the department of commerce.

The Paris correspondent of the Lon don Chronicle confirms the foregoing statement, and adds that all the Ger man heavy artillery was placed on con crete platfo. is selected some years ago as foundations for factories never to be completed. Belated reports giving intimate de tails of the occupation of Amiens and Compiegtie, from which cities the Ger mans subsequently were driven, throw further light on what England has char acterized as German advance prepara tions for invasion. According to these stories, in almost evefry French town through which the German army swept, some one in the ran.v3 would point out where he had until recently resided as an Inconspicuous citizen. Through such men, great quantities of stories were found, and this together with the .mowl edge of the country gained through .sol dier residents has proved of immense value. At Przemysl, The isolation of the Galician strong hold of Prbemysl, heretofore emphasized In despatches from Petrograd as for the purpose of assisting the triumphant Russian march to Cracow and then to Vienna and Budapest, apparently has made complete oy the occupation of KhyTow, 20 miles south of Przemysl and close to the junction of the railroad lines connecting with Jaroslau, the important railroad center taken by the Russian troops sometime ago. On the i>ritish Isles the public is awaiting with keen interest the outcome of Premier Asquith’s appead to the Irish, voiced in Dublin Friday night. With a Welsh army corps already in a tenta tive stage of formation, Englishmen be lieve that the Irish will not be outdone. JAPAN'S TROOPS UNCI INCH Fraternizing With Inhabitants in Some Sections, Attacking Women in Others. Appeal in Behalf of Shantung. Peking, 1:15 a. m.—Japanese troops operating against the German con cession of Kiaochow are making prog ress in the direction of Fantagtse, 16 miles south of Weihslen, on the Kiao chow Railroad, according to advices received here from the province of Shantung. At Fangtse there are val uable coal mines under German con trol. Reports to the Chinese government from various towns in the wake of the Japanese army corroborate dispatches from Liachow of the wounding by the Japanese of about 12 Chinamen. Ac cording to the government advices a number of Chinese have been killed while attempting to prevent attacks on their women. The Chinese minis ter at Tokio has been instructed by his government to appeal to he Jap anese foreign office in behalf of the inhabitants of Shantung. The activities of the Emflen and other German cruisers which, accom panied by colliers, departed from Tsing-Tau early in the war, seem to prove that the German official dec larations stating taht the cruisers re mained within the harbor, were inten tional fabrications. Fraternize With Jape. Weihsien, (via Peking, 1:15 a. m.)— Two hundred Japanese entered Weih sien Friday and occupied the railway station, capturing four Germans. The Chinese troops encamped near by are fraternizing with the Japanese soldiers. Rail communication to the east and west of this town has been suspended. Weihsien is an Important city lr. the Chinese province of Shantung, about fifty miles north of the German concession of Kiaochow with which it is connected by railroad.

New York.—Refore sailing for Glas gow on his way to Petrograd aboard the Olympic today, Alexander de Stal egsky, Russian minister to Mexico, spoke freely on conditions in that country as he said he found them. "Mexico Is without a government and practically in a state of anarchy,” he said. “With the exception of tha State of Yucatan, where some semb lance of order is still maintained, it la unsafe for a person to travel in Mex ico. The hands of brigands that rob, burn and pillage as they please wlth interference from the national author ities are the cause of all the trouble. There is no interference from the na tional authorities simply because there is no national government worth mentioning. "The United States should not with draw its troops from Vera Cruz. From what I was able to observe there Is no prospect that stable government may be established in Mexico. Car ranza Is an able political chief, but he cannot compare with Villa as a leader of men I am frank to state that conditions in Mexico today are not one half as good as they were during the reign of Madero" BORDEAUX VINE lAIILL BE GOOD Work Begins in Famous Vine yards By Women, Children and Old Men.
