ing their advantage, apparently disre
garding tho fact that their eewtro has
been compellod to fall back. Thoy also

pathians, to prevent the Austrlans
from retiring into Hungary. It is
stated they already have cut oil S00,

In Flanders and France, tho battle,
which has been going on for t.hlrty
livo day*, has again developed into an
artillery duel. This doubtless Is duo
to inability of the Infantry on eithor
tilde to operate successfully ovor the
muddy ground, and to tho extended
Hooded area bctwoen tho coast and Dlx
mude. While they aro moving: men
eastward to oppose the AuBtrlans, tho
Germans arc reported to bo bringing
more big guns to the western front.
Russian and Turkish squadrons have
mot in a Iong-dlstaqco battle off Sebas
topol,N and both clitlm victory. Tho
ltu?>lan report say's the Turkish cruiser
Gooben was damaged, while the Turks
claim a Russian battleship suffered
severely, and that tho other Kusoian
warships fled.
BELGRADE IS CAI.LKD
UPON TO SURRENDER
Reminiscent of early days of tho war
is the report from Vienna that Bel
grade' has been called upon to sur
render. This city, capital of Servla,
was under bombardment for weeks, and
was relieved only when tho Russian
advance In Gallcia compelled the Aus
trlaus to look after their northern
frontiers. Now the Servians,' like the
Montenegrins, aro back In their own
country, and tho Aui^rlans, unmindful
of the second invasion of their north
ern provinces, are endeavoring to de
stroy the two little armies.

?WASHINGTON, November 19.?An
official dispatch to-day to the French

life inlllcted on the onemy by tho allies, i
and spoke of the success of Frpnch |
scouting parties In securing lnforma- I
tlon of German troop movements.
"Supplementary information received
hero," said tho dispatch, "reveals that
the last three days' lighting lias re
sulted particularly disastrously for the

eourt with a mine. We had partially
captured this town, and, resuming, we

One of the most pertinent sugges

who writes: *

butions of this sort could be gathered
iroin merchants all over the State.
There are many useful articles of dry
goods, notions, apparel, etc., on their
shelves which could well be spaicd
for such a cause. If the no??l for
goods of this character were ma'lo
known, in many stores from 10 to 100
pairs fit shoes perhaps would bo con
tributed, and for service .they would
a'nount to a much larger contriim
tion than could bo spared In cash in
many instances; so likewise of other
articles, and If a general appeal were
It sued by yourself for this class of con
tribution a large part of the cargo of
the ship could be secured.
"1 trust the suggestion may prove
useful and Instructions as to the col
lection or" such article's may ho widely
disseminated and a general contribu
tion of this kind secured. This, of
j course, need not deter any merchant
j from making as large a cash oontribu

IN MEXICO LINO'S PLEA
! CHICAGO, November 19.?^Fighting
; In Mexico never will cease until the
? lnnd lias been redistributed and work
ers can own their homes. In the opln
j ion of John Llnd, President "Wilson's
j persbr.al representative In tlio southern
' republic, during lluorta's administra
tion. Addressing - tho Industrial Club
. here to-day, Mr. L.lncl sketched the de
velopment of the landlord system under
the Spanish conquerprs, and then de
clared:
"As a whole, the nation was\mada
homeless, and has so continued to thin
i day. This Is and will be the cause of
revolutions in Mexico until the ques
tion Is settled. The State of Morelos,
for example, is owned by twenty-aevon
men." <
Nominal freedom, Mr. I.ind said. waB
accorded the peons, but they arc poor
ly paid and practically compellqd to
remain in the service of ttyc great land
owners. Laws forbidding'employes to
leave the landlords' Bervlee while in
debt have aided in keeping tho work
? ers in subjection.
| Careful study of tho Mexicans, the
speaker continued, convinced him that
tho differences between them and the
citizens of the United States wero not
racial nor psychological. The turbu
lence of tho Mexicans, he. said, could
be attributed to years of oppression.
"The hard experience of the Mexican
has inado him wary and suspicious,"
said Mr. Llnd. "It hoe been difficult
for tho Mexican people to believe our
President did not havo some ulterior
motive in his proffered good offices. I
think, however, that they now are
about convinced, and. when onco con
vinced, more loyal friends arc not to
bo found."
The speaker closed with a plea "for
a warmer and kindlier Interest in these,
our neighbors."
. "They bear us no ill will," he de
: dared. "They need our good will. We
' need theirs. We must bo friends in
peaiee and allies In trouble. Tho peo
ple of Mexico dwell' in a rich and beau
tiful land. T feel thlit they are a pod
pie of great promise. They have suf
fered vicissitudes which wo have es
