Montgomery, a Houston correspondent of the Ga 5. ton News, who got as far as Virginia 2 Point, the north end of the causeway, Wednesday and viewed the wrecked ¢ity of Galveston: “Iam confident the number of dead in Galveston is large. I could not see an elevator on the port side of the city and my opinion is that the number of buildings destroyed will run into the thousands. 1 be- lieve the property loss will be greater than that of 1900. Montgomery made his way to the drawbridge of the Galveston caus wa® and owing to the fact that th strugture was swept away he was forced to return to Houston. The man made the trip in an automobile.

By Wireless Tele- graphy ' to Sayville, N, Y.—The fol- lowing announcement was made here cfficially today: “The Fortress of Kovno, with all Gf war Getermined, has been Lands. since last night. “More than 400 cannon were taken. The fortress was captured by storm in spite of the most tenacious resis- tance by the Russians.” Serious Blow to Military experts have agreed the loss of the Fortress of would he a scrious blow Russians. The critic London Times, in, an article published this 1orning say: (e the enemy succeeds in reducing ov- no and is thereby able to cross the Niemen he will be in the rear of the Russian line north of the Sventa, and ‘with the junction of the ‘two wings of Field Marshall Von Hinden- burg’s army the position of the Rus- ‘sian right flank will be very diffi- cult.” The official German statement o yesterday announced the capture of the forts on the southwest front of Kovno, together with 4,500 prisoners and 0 guns. This was interpreted as foreshadowing the fall of the for- tress propé@r, but its accomplishment so speedily was hardly expected, The famous German general Field Mar- shal Von Hindenburg, probably took command of the army attacking Kov- no. The selection of Germany’s na- tional hero for this task indicates the importance attached to it by the Ger- man general staff. Population of City 75,000, Kovno, capital of the Russian Pro- vince of that name, is on the right bank of the Niemen. It is a fortress of the first class. The civilian pep- ulation of the city is more than 75,- 000. At the time of the fall of War- saw the Austrian and German. forces in Russia were operatlng in three large divisions. From the south Field Marshal Von Mackensen pressed into Poland with the troops with which has had successfully swept through Galica, .recapturing the province from the Russians. From the west Prince Leopold of Bavaria advanced directly at the Warsaw front. From the north came the for- ces of Field Marshal Von Hindenburg, advancing through ;the Baltic pro- vinces. 9 After Warsaw was captured a junc- tion was effected between the army groups of Mackehsen and Leopold. Weld Teutonic Forces. The capture of Kovno prbably will result in welding the northern and central Teutonic forces into a con- solidated line from Baltic Provinces to Galicia. Kovno is a resses running from the and east, connected by railroad. On this line are Grodno, Brest-Litovsk and Lutsk.

Germans Bombarding Vilna, Petrograd, Aug. 18, Via. London, 3:46 p. m.—German aeroplanes are persistently bombarding the city of Vilna, about fifty miles east of Kovno. The possibility of the capture of Vilna by the Germans is foreseen i Petro- grad and operations preliminary to its cvacua(i?n are in progress. London Prepared for News. London, Aug. 18.—The fall of Russian Fortress of Kovno, an- nounced officially in Berlin today, marks a development of unmistak- able importance in the great struggle between the Russians and their op- ponents. The news from Berlin yes- terday that some of the outlying forts had been taken indicated that the sit- uation of the Russian defenders was a desperate one, so that London was prepared for today's wnnouncement, although hardly expecting it so soon. The Russian armies apparently have not been able to reorganize sufficient- ly to check the Austro-German ad- vance, which is being pushed steadily against the ring of strong fortresses which form the outer defense to the Petrograd provinces. The armies of the central powers show no disposi- tion to relax pressure on the eastern front, nor are they likely to do so, un- til they have tried once more to sep- arate the Russian northern and southern armies and capture Brest- Litovsk, Allies the in Ground. new landing party on the Gallipoli Peninsula, near Suvla Bay, had been engaged heavily confirmed in an official report today from Gen. Sir Tan Mamilton, the Br commander at the Dardanelles front, stating that the British left had won 500 vards of ground, including a Turkish trench. Sir lan also reported the repulse of determined Tur] h attacks against the Australasian position. Little change is reported in the dip- lomatic situation in the near east.

Allies Claim Advance, London, Aug. 18, 11:35 a. m.—A further advance of five hundred yards by the allied troops on Gallipoli Pen- insula announced in a report from General lan Hamilton, the B ish expeditionary commander in chief, given out here today. The statement follows: “Sir Ian Hamilton reports that in the southern zone the situation was unchanged during the 14th and 15th end the Turks kept up the usual ar- ry fire without much affect. n the northern zone, the flank of the Australian and New Zealand army corps Dposition was heavily attacked during the night of the 14th-15th, but all attacks were repulsed. At Suvla the troops on the left flank made a short advance on the afternoon of the 15th, With a view to straightening out the line. They moved forward under considerable gun and rifle fire and gained about five hundred yards, capturing a Turkish trench and taking two officers and twenty other prisoners.” Italians Continue to Advance, Rome, Aug. 17, Via. Paris, Aug. 18, 12:45 a. m—Further Italian ad- vances through the passes of the Alps and a brilliant bayenet charge which captured a strong line of Austrian en- trenchments in the Toimino region are described in the officiab report ued tonight at army headquarters. The statement says: “In the rugged Ortler region between the upper val- levs of the Adda and the Adige one of our detachments set out during the night of August 16 from Capanna, Milano and divided Into squads Joined by ropes crossed the Camossi Pass (9,500 feet high) and Vedretta Di Dampo climbed the snow capped summit of Turckett Spitts (10,500 lTeet) and surprised groups of the enemy. It then proceeded to Hinter Mada- tasch Spits (10,400 feet) occupied by a detachment of the emeiny, which it attacked and dispersed, and then solidly occupied the summit. Advance in Upper Rienz, “In upper Rienz further progress by our infantry is reported. We occu- pried Sattleberg west of Lange Alpe. “In the Monte Nero section we ‘cap- tured several of the enciny's trenches in the neighborhood of the Visio Feak. Later a counter attack by the enemy on our Visio positions was vigorously repulsed. In the Tolmino zone our brilliant offensive developed against the hills of Santa Maria and Santa Lucia commanaing positions situated to the right of the Isonze. After the customary preparatory shelling by artillery our infantry dashed forward with the vayonet and stormed these heights. The enemy suffered very heavy losses. We cap- tured seven officers and 547 men, four machine guns and a great quantity of ammunition.” French Official Report. Paris, Aug. 18, 2:30 p. m.—The right 2 o DEATHS AND FUNERALS, Helen Birnbaum.

S. May Send Document to France less Appeal Is Granted in Case of Dacia. Washington, Aug. 18.—With the condemnation of the American cotton ship Dacia as a lawrui prize by the French courts, the case of the cap- tured ship enters the sphere of diplo- macy and unless an appeal is grant- ed a strong protest based on a ‘“denial of ‘justice,” will probably be drawn up by the state department to be for- warded to the French foreign effice. An investigation of the condition under which the former Hamburg- American liner was purchased will begin, it is believed as soon as the full decision of the French courts reaches Washngton. If it is established to the satisfaction of the American govern- ment that the transfer from the Ger- man to the American flag was legiti- mate and the change of registry was made without any stipulations which might cast suspicion on its validity, a vigorous protest will be made against the right of a belligerent to interfere with foreign built ships fiying the American flag. The position of this government. is understood, will be taken upon the broad principle of the right of the United States to acquire by legitimate purchase vessels from any source whatever. it MORE SUBMARI British and Spanish Steamers Trawler Sunk.
