An enormous army, which poured across the frontier from Bel- fort, is pressing the German army which Hned the Rhine. The French movement is from four points. Already sanguinary fighting is In progress and the losses on both sides are enormous. The Swiss frontier guards are mass- ed to prevent violation of Swiss neu- trality. The sound of firing is plainly heard here. The fighting is said to be on 8 line from Altkirch north through Thany. The French are plainly determined, 1f possible, to drive the Germans from Upper Alsace, so that the French srmy, reported here to have penetrat- ed the Vosges mountains and to be mgving through-the Schmireck valley toward Rosheim, cannot be flanked by the German troops that are massed along the Rhine near the Swiss fron- ter. | JAPANESE CRUISER ‘ ON GERMANS’ HEELS San Francisco, Aug. 19.—Shipping Interests here believe the German | crulser Leipzig, which steamed out = of the harbor after taking on coal and supplies, will not resume its patrol of the coast, looking for marine prizes, but will proceed toward its nearest flag port, Apia, Samoa, whith- er its companion in these waters, the crujser Nurmberg, is believed to be heading. ~During its twenty-four-hour stay here the Leipzig was permitted under the neutrality laws to replenish its bunkers with only enough coal to| take the vessel to Apia, Meantime the Japanese cruiser Id- zumo, which left San Diego-twenty- Al four hours ago, is steaming up the coast with the reported avowed in- tention of tagging the Leipzig :bnut | wherever it goes. GETS FEW GONGRATULAT|0NS i | Emporar Franch Joseph A four Years Old. { Vienna, Aug. 19.—Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria-Hungary passed the ' -eighty-fourth milestone of his life. Francis Joseph is the oldest ruler | both in point of age and length of reign of modern times. He will have | I ruled sixty-six years in December.

It is natural and inevitable that there should be the utmost variety of sym. pathy with regard to the issues and circumstances of the conflict. “It will be easy to excite passion and difficult to allay it. Must Be Really Neutral. “The United States must be neu- tral in fact as well as in name during these days that are to try men’s souls. We must be impartial in thought as well as in action, must put a curb upon our sentiments as well as on every transaction that might be construed as a preference of one party to the struggle before another. “My thought is of America. I am speaking, I feel sure, the earnest wish and purpose of every thoughtful Anierican that this great country of ours, the first in our thoughts and in our hearts, should show herself in this time of peculiar trial a nation fit beyend others to exhibit the fine poise of undisturbed judgment, the dignity of self-control, the efficiency of dispassionate action; a nation that neither sits in judgment upon others nor is disturbed in her own counsels and which keeps herself fit and free to do what is honest and disinterest- ed and truly serviceable for. the peace of the world. “Shall we not resolve to put npon ourselves the restraint which will bring to our people the happiness and the great and lasting influence for peace we covet for them?” Pioneer wants—one-half- eent 3 word cash.
