London, Oct. 2—The screen of se- crecy erected by the censorship al- most entirely across Northerq. France, and behind which military craftsmen for the past three weeks have been fashioning the rough outlines of a new map of the Eastern hemisphere, stands almost unimpaired. However, judging from indications in London, it has been pierced here and there i i with holes which permit some i ling of the events happening on ihe stage behind. Slight advances by both wings of the allied armies are indicated in an official statement issued by the French war office. At the same time the gellem! situation is described as unchanged. “We have, nevertheless,” says the statement, “made progress on ¢ left to the north of the Somme and on our right in the Southern Woevre district.” From what can be deducted from: these fragmentary glimpses there wouid appear to be justification, in the opinion of British observers, for the confident, even seemingly in- spired, optimism on the part of the allies. This describes events as shaping themselves for a repetition of history as it was written on the River Marne, when the allied forces sent the Germans back on their tracks. German Tactics Uusuccessful. All the brilliantly skilled tactics employed by General von Kluck, the commander of the German wing, to counter or break through the fence of bayonets constantly reaching north- ward beyond his extreme. right, have failed.. These efforts, however, have by no means ceased and the German general staff, it is felt in London, probahly will risk something else- where to reinforce this wing before the end of the chapter is written. Heretofore reinforcements have been met by reinforcements in this critical quarter of the battlefield. ~ -The Germans nearly got through the glliéd rinz near Albert, to the north- east of Amiens.<hut after two days of flerce struggie for the mastery they failed. These incessant assaults on the part of the Germans, according to the allied commanders, whose reports are angmented by statements from in- dependent sources, have cost the as- sailants such appalling losses in men that. even allowing for reinforce- ments, their ranks must have been materially weakened. The announcement from France of the recreation, of the position of mar- shal of France, coming simultaneous- 1y with the report of General Joffre, commander-in-chief of the French forces, of the satisfactory condition along the entire battle line, has been hailed by the allies as peculiarly sig- nificant. Says Germans Halt Left. The German official statement says the Germans have checked tie ad- vance of the allies on the German right, repulsing an attack near Al- bert. The official statement: reports German progress in Argonne, and re- pulses of French advances, in Alsace and Lorraine and the Central Vosges. The situation along the Meuse is un- changed, according to the German offi- rial statement. E The German artillery continues the bombardment of the first line of forts to the south of Antwerp, ac¢ording to an official Belgium statement, which adds that the works have suffered lit- tle and the Belgians still are in con- dition to make effective resistance. The Belgian official statement says between the River Semne and Reeth no movement of German infantry has occurred. -~ In the circle from the Scheldt river to the Senne, however, daring and violent attacks by the Aicine hawe haan mamallad b tha Belgians, who were well by their artillery. A dispatch from Ghent, Belgium, to the London Express says the Ger- mans have built five heavy pontoon bridges across the Meuse: river be- tween Givet and Namur, apparently to facilitate their retirement from France if too hotly pressed by the allies. May Ship Food to Holland. Washington, Oct. 2.—The British government, through Ambassador Sir Cecil Spring-Rice, notified the state department that Great Britain will not interfere with shipments of food- stuffs from the United States to Hol- land. supported Something like a huge document envelope is a new folding container for filing architects’ and engineers’ drawings. BOLD LONE BANDIT : HOLDS UP MARKHAM ! _ . HOTEL NIGHT CLERK (Continued from Page 1.) ed. Roskowick unlocked the strong box while the bandit cooly walked to the money drawer and took what money was in it. He then relieved Roskowick of the strong box contents, which amounted to about $600. Filled His Pockets. After filling his pockets with silver and currency, doing his work in a hurry, but completely, he jumped back across the desk with the re- mark: “This is a better haul than I had expected to make.’” “Now Call Police.” He then walked to the door through which he had entered a few minutes before and as he passed out, said: “Now you can call the police.” Roskowick obeyed the instructions. Mr. Lycan was called at once and: immediately several detectives were at work on the case and after some delay several policemen ar- rived on the scene. Trains Searched. The west bound train was searched and police -officers in all surround- ing towns notified. Up to press time no clue whatever has been found as to the identity of the robber. Wore Patent Leather Shoes. A pair of patent leather shoes, a long rain coat, a pair of overalls and a slouch hat were worn by the thief. He was about five feet, seven inches tall and weighed 145 pounds. The loss of the hotel will amnunt! to approximately $400, of which it is believed $100 was in checks. Private parties lost $135xleft at the desk for safe-keeping, and the Elks lodge is out about $70 in cash and $50 in checks, the receipts of last evening’s meeting. Detectives who are working on the case believe that the robber must have had at least one companion on watch while he performed the hold-up, forming this conclusion be- More exclusive!
