TODAY’S WAR CONDENSED
Official war news was brief today, but war office statements are not
needed to make plain the momentous results hang on the fortunes of the des
perate battles being waged at vital points on the line that stretches from
Switzerland through northern France to within 25 miles of the Straits <»f
Dover.
Te heaviest fighting is on the Itne o<- and Lens. This after
noon's official report from Paris says the Allies repulsed German attacks
between Arras and the Oise and that cavalry engagements continue in the
region of La Bassee, Estaires and HazebVourk.
Special attention is directed to Ostend. There have assembled the great
er part of the Belgian army and about two-thirds of the British forces
that escaped from Antwerp. It is believed Germany is pushing forward to
atack the city hoping to capture and use the port in he<r operations against
England.
A bitter struggle to keep the Germans from the coast is inevitable. To
day's reports indicate that the German cavalry advance is less than thirty
miles from Ostend.
T'he strength of the Allies at Ostend Is not known. It Is possible that
British reinforcements which were unable to Teach Antwerp in time to help
in the defense of that city are now in Ostend.
Still less Is known of the situation In the eastern theatre of the war.
Petrograd is silent on recent develop ments. The Russian war office ex
plans this silence on the grounds of strategy. Vienna claims the Russian at
tack on Przemysl, the strong fortress in Austrian Galicia, has failed. Berlin
asserts that the Russian advance on the East Prussian iVontier has been
checked while the Germans are steadily working eastward in Russian Poland.
PRES'T DENIES

Washington.—Various reports about
efforts of the Washington government
to set on foot peace negotiations be
tween the warring European nations
were set at rest today by President

made no direct peace representations
to any of the powers since his first
note tendering the good offices of the
United States.
Oscar Straus, former ambasasdor to
Turkey and a prominent peaec advo
cate, called at the White House dur
ing the day and spent a tiuarter of an
hour In conference with the president.
He said afterwards no new plans for
a peaec movement had been discussed.

ASSURANCES ON

PRES’TWILSDN
American Merchants Will Have
U. S. Government Behind
Them to the Limits of Their
Rights, He Says, on Con
traband.
Washington.—President Wilson to
day gave assurances that American
merchants trading with Europe would
have the government back of them to
the limit of their rights and that he
did not expect there would be any in
terference on the part of the nations

of business was progressing normally.

uation, he added, ha.s been most dis
turbed but he expected an improve

WEEK hTfINANCE
New York.-The burden of the com
try's present foreign Indebtedness was
Indicated by the week's advance in ex
change rates. Large maturities of
ninety-day i.ills put out In July were a
factor. Cotton exports expanded ma
terially and grain exports continued
heavy. Imports .it New York also seem
to he well maintained.
Action of the exchange market Indi
cates plainly that foreign creditors will
press for immediate payment of nil
available maturities. New outlay In
enterprise Is at a standstill.
