AROUND Belgian Town, Says a London Report. q ENGLAND BECOMING ANXIOUS Fierce Battle Continues to Rage Along Entire Front of Allies in Flahders —French Recover Lost Terri- tory—Austrians Gain. London, April 27.—“Ypres is in flames, the Germans haying thrown a hail of incendiary bombs into the town,” thus telegraphs the Morning Post’s -cerrespondent in Northern France. “The fighting continues hotly all along this front; the correspondent adds, “the Germans show extraordi- nary daring in bringing heavy artil- lery close to their front Ine, the guns being mostly 13-inch Austrian howit- zers on movable carriages.” The tremendous battle begun by the German attack on the allied arch-like front around Ypres, in the plains of Flanders, continues with undiminished fury, and England, like the rest of kurope, is awaiting the outcome with undisguised anxiety. Even the news that the allied fleet and army have commenced an attack on the Dardanelles and that troops are advancing against the Turkish en- trenchments, which, a few days ago, would have aroused immense enthus- iasm, has received only passing atten- tion in the face of the stakes that are in the balance in the battle which is being fought beyond the English channel. Territory Recovered. The French and Belgians, who re- : ceived the blast in fuller force and were driven back across the canal be- tween Boesinghe and _ Steenstraate, were not much slower in recovering and, according to the French official Teports, succeeded in regaining pos- session of the canal banks and much of the surrendered territory to the east. There is no inclination here, how- ever, to belittle the initial success of the German sweep and the work: that is before the allied armies before the situation can be fully restored. Took 26 Russian Trenches. Vienna, April 27.—The following of- ficial statement was issued by the war office today: “In the Carpathians, in ‘the sector east of Uzsok pass, the fighting con- tinues. We captured yesterday a new vantage point to the southeast of Ko- ziowa, taking several officers and more than a thousand men prisoners, “In order tg regain the height which they had lost the Russians made sev- eral counter attacks and also attacked the neighboring districts, especially the height of Ostry and a position to the east of Ostry. All the attacks were repulsed with heavy Russian losses. Two Russian battalions were almost completely annihilated and one hundred prisoners were taken. German Troops to West. London, April 26—The German Tushes in Flanders and the Woevre, where they claim to have had consid- erable success, are believed to be the forerunners of another big effort to break through the allied lines in the West. For many days Belgium has been sealed from the observation of neu- trals while reinforcements from Ger- many were being moved to the south ‘to take part in the new offensive, which they hope is to carry them to Calais and possibly break’ the resist- ance of the allies. Canadians Fighting Hard. The attack in Flanders, ofiginally aimed at the French, has been trans- ferred to the British lines held by the Canadians, on the immediate. right of the French, and here for two days, the men from the Dominion have been en- aged in a deadly contest with the Germans. The latter state in their of- ficial report that they have made fur- ther progress toward Ypres and that the British counter attacks have been repulsed. _ The French. account, on the other hand, declares that the allies’ counter attacks continue with success and that the British hold all their positions and reparts the charge that the Germans Germans Claim Gain. London, April 24.—With a big battle developing near Ypres in Flanders, and reports of a prospective naval en- gagement in the North sea and of prep- ‘afations for the commencement of combined naval and military attack the Dardanelles or some other spot in Turkey, the people of are highly expectant.

JAPAN SHOWS UNITED FRONT The Government Is Upheld in De- mands on China By Press and People. Tokio, April 26.—The firm attitude of the government in pressing its de- mands upon China is meeting with widespread approval in Japan and pub- lic opinion is manifesting itself with increasing force in this direction. Al- though Parliament is not in session, a large number of members of the na- tional legislature are lending active support to the government. One hundred of the members placed themselves on record today as favor- ing the demands of Japan, They laa’ special emphasis upon the demands for railway and mining concessions and provisional supervision over finan- cial, political and military affairs of Eastern Mongolia, Asserting that Japan is actuated by the desire to bring about permanent peace in the Orient, they urged the government to proceed firmly with its program. The press calls upon the nation to present a united front at this juncture and declares the world should be brought to the realization that the out- come depends entirely upon China. As one newspaper puts it: “China has tried our patience to the last limit and has employed every de- vice to involve other powers,” ITALY GETS NEARER TO WAR Prince Von Buelow Quoted as Saying That Austria Is Unable to Accept Terms. London, April 27.—The opinion is growing in Rome that Austria and Italy are drifting inevitably toward war. A diplomat accredited to the Quirinal quotes. Prince von Buelow, the German ambassador at Rome, who has been the principal figure in the efforts to avert such a war, as saying that it would be impossible for Aus- tria to accept Italy’s demands, Pep- pineo Garibaldi, grandson of the fa- mous Italian statesman, who recently hag talked with the Italian king and premier, is said to have received from them the impression that Italy would enter the war with the allies. Italian refugees from Austria say the frontier has been fortified by the Austrians with concrete trenches and Weavy artillery. —An account of the Creation, as re- lated by members of the tribe of In- NO SALARY FOR U.S. MAR ; | Comptrotier of Federal Treasury De- | an ‘cides that William M, Shelton Can't Be Paid Legally.

It is, however, by church leaders as legal confirma- q tion of the union of the Presby- terlan and Cumberland Presbyter- fan churches. The legality of the union had been fought by an insurgent minority of the two churches since 1906, when it was voted by the general assemblies of both denominations. The court decision declares that the Presbyterian.church of the United States of America, (the northern Pres- byterian body), is the rightful owner of the property of the Missouri Valley college at Marshall, and of all other church property of the former Cumber- Sheriff’s Sale.
