If the Kalser captures Warsaw and puts the Russian army . temporarily out of commission, it is anticipated that he will hurl his victorious legions across the Channel, with the object of con- quering Britain. Not a word of England's prepara- tions to' meet her formidable foe has been permitted to pass the censor, but letters from British army om- cers to relatives in this city reveal the perilous situatiod in which. Eng- lJand finds herself. . Apparently, Lord Kitchener does mnot place much de- i'pendence upon the British fleet’s be- ing able to repel the Germans, for breparations are going ahead with as much vigor as would be the case if no British fleet cxisted. Ready to Defend London, The city of London is girdled by a triple row | of trenches, and every preparation s being made to = place the clty in the best possible state of defense. Eritish army officers’ say that Kitch- ener has an army of 2,000,000 men under arms, One-half of this huge army will ncver leave England’s shores, but will be held in reserve to defend Great Britain from the expect- ed invasion. In the fall, it is antici- pated, Lord Kitchener witl hurl 1,- 000,000 men across the channel for a great offensive movement nsnlnst "the Germans. A ‘British cavalry ' officer who re- ceived orders a few weeks ago ,to proceed immediately '‘‘to the front” was astonisned when he learned that “the front,” so.far as he was ‘con- cerned, was the ecast coast of Eng- land. He writes that hig men, are pa- trolling twenty miles of coast line, guarding against a surprise. England's apprehension ‘of an in- vasion is demonstrated by the dispo- sition of her troops in Flanders, Along a 400-mile battle line the Britd ish army is concentrated on a 40- mile front, barring the road to Calais, ‘which, it is anticipated the Kaiser must capture in order to invade Eng- land. The French armies have 'been irritated by this policy of the Eng- lish in concentrating all their forces in'one small area, leaving the French to bear the brunt of the German on- slaught. Lord Kitchener regards his disposition of his forces as vital, as his first duty is to protect Engignd. British Net Effective. . The cessation of German subma- rine exploits during the last fort- night is said to be due to the suc- cess of the British in perfecting a huge steel net whi¢h extends across the Straits of Dover, from the city ‘of| Doyer' to the French coast. Not a submersible can pass it, and it the | net holds the Germans will have to send thelr submarines around the north coast of' Scotland to attack British commerce. This immense steel net is support- ed by buoys, placed at intervals of a quarter mile, At several places there are bremks in the net, 30'feet across, providing a channel for the passage of British ships and those of neutral nations. , British pilots are at hand to guide rr\endly vessels through these channels, as the buoys have: to be changed frequently in order to keep the German submarine commanders from discovering the channels.

London, July 27, 2:15 a. m.—A ma- jority of the casualties of the Allies occur in the holding of trenches af- ter they have been won, says the Brit- ish press representatives in the Dar- danelles, in ‘describing the operations against the Turks up to July 14. His dispatch shows.'that the . Turks con- tinue to oppose obstinately the Allies’ advance and that slow progress is be- ing made only after desperate strug- gles and much hand-to-hand fighting, and largely by the aid of tremendous bombardments with the explosive shells. From July 12 to 14 the Allies gained considerable ground, accord- to the narrative. . “Any one who has not seen the ground,” says the writer, “can have no conception of the obstacles our heroic Infantry must face ingaining even a few vards of fresh ground. The Turks now withdraw their ~men down'communicating trenches during a bombardment. Thus our infantry are able to occupy two or three lines with but small losses. Parties of men get too far forward and fre- quently are lost for hours, while it is +EW ENGLAND SICK GET BACK HEALTH Yictims of Digestive Disorders Tell of Wonderful Effect of Remedy, Many New England stomach suf- ferers and, in fact, people all over tha United States, have found remarkable results from the use of Mayr's Won- derful Remedy.

HAS NO PARRALLEL * IN HUMAN HISTORY ; Magnitude of German Envelop- ment Movement on Eastern Front London, July 27, 11:39 a. m.—The magnitude of the German enveloping movement in the eastern fleld now is absorbing the attention of the British , officials and public. The latest re- ports show that General Von Buelow’'s } 30,000 cavalry have turned southward | from Riga and are within elghty rallway connecting miles of the Petrograd with Warsaw. In this way the northern German line is closing in on the main north- ern railway artery to the Russian cap- ital, while the southern army similar- ly is approachnig the main southern | artefy running to Oddesa. Has No Parallel. ‘The Times declares human history can show ne parallel of the tre- niendous extent of this enveloping movement, which it says involves re- sults to Russia and the western allles comparing with Russia's resistance to a Mongolian invasion. The Times believes the operations are a real danger not alone to War- saw; but to the whole system of rail- way defenses of which the city is the center and that it now is apparent that the ‘Germans planning to envelop the entire Russian enemy in this region. The newspaper points out that the fall | of ‘Warsaw will have a grave signifi- cance for the west, as it will mean | that Russia’s power to resume a suc- cessful - offensive will ‘Have been in- definitely postponed, and that the principal bases for .offensive opera- tions will be in the hands of Germany. Brings Rellef to London. Today’'s - Petrograd officlal state- ment saying that the Germans have been thrown back at one point of the Narew river brings some relief to London, as the military observers hold that the final results depend largely upon Russia prolonging her resistance until climatic conditions in that coun= try interpose a barrier to the full realization of the German plan. Reports from the other military flelds, with the exception of the Italian frontier, where the Italians claim to have taken 1,600 prisoners, show com- parative Inactivity.

Authori- tative announcement to this effect was made yesterday at the state depari- ment, although the nature of the con- templaed action was not disclosed. President Wilson is understood to be considering several suggested courses. His decision probably will not becoms known before his return to Washing- ton from Cornish, N, H. The warring Mexican factions have falled to heed Mr. Wilson's sugges- tions of {wo menths ago that théy ac- comodate their differences and restore peace, the president apparently has determined that the other measures which the Washington government announced it must take if the battle of the factions continued must now be resorted to. The presiden's most probable course, it was reported last night, would be to urge General Carransa for the last *ime to confer with other fac- tion leaders in am effort to bring about peace. Should Carranza again refuse, this plan, it ‘s said contemplates ef- forts to assemble other Mexican I ers who represent a majority the Mexican people.
