FIGHTING IN TRENCHES, STEEL AGANST STEEL, ALONG, ENTIRE LINE Supreme Struggles on To-Day In Both France and East Prussia— — Germans Force the Meuse, but _ Are Unable to Break Through | the Determined Human Barrier. © ALLIES REPORT GAINS AGAINST GERMAN RIGHT LONDON, Sept. 28.—Two of the greatest battles of the present war are nearing a decisive stage. In France, along the Allied-German lines, the supreme clash of arms denot= © ing the approaching close of the tremendous fortnight of practically unceasing battle along the four rivers flowing through the northeastern portion of France has now been © in progress for forty-eight hours, without decisive result as yet. nn Along the East Prussian frontier the invading Russians ~ have come to grips with an immense German army, strongly - intrenched and heavily reinforad, and this battle, perhaps equal in magnitude to the battle in France, is expected to continue for several days. Both sides in France claim encouraging though slight. gains. Field Marshal Sir John Frenct. is spending his sixty= second birthday in maintaining what his latest communicas tion to the War Offices describes asa ‘satisfactory situation.” The Germans have steadily met assault with countere assault until the trenches of the opposing armies are only ' sprinting distance apart. Already there has been some work with the steel in hande to-hand conflicts, but except at a single point, where they forced a passage across the Meuse, the Germans, half of whose army is kept busy on the Russian frontier, had up to last night found it impossible to break through the human barrier stretching across France. The battle line in East Prussia extends from far to the north of Eydkuhnnen through Goldapp to Lyck. The Gere mans are declared to be strongly entrenched and to have been very heavily reinforced, The Russian army is being heavily reinforced from the main reserve army with headquarters at Warsaw. The weather Is very bad, with alternate sleet and rain, making speedy movements of troops almost impussible. A Central News despatch from Rume says that the following telegram has been received from Petrograd: “The cight wing of the Austrians has been driven back beyond the Carpathians into Hungary where they are being pursued by the Russians, The Austrian debacle is come “The Austrian defeat is reported to be complete and they The Austrian left wing has ree treated to Cracow. The Russians have occupied another of the forts of Przemysl.” An official despatch from Petrograd says that Przemys}, — in Galicia, is now entirely invested by the Russians, and that “# the main Austrian army is retiring behind the Carpathians. » FRENCH REPORT OF ALLIES’ CAMPAIGN, BORDEAUX, Sept. 28 [Associated Press] ar so 4
