WAR HAS LASTED 63 DAYS WITHOUT DECISIVE BATTLE Struggle on the Aisne, Though Dramatic, May Not Be So Important in Results as the Opera tions of Russian, German and Austrian Armies in the East. London, Oct. C The Gird day of tho great war of Huropo saw n repetition of what the peoples of all tho countries have forced themselves to expect, per haps for months to come no decisive con tllct on land or sea. From Ilerlln to London came nothing in the way of Germany's clalnm to progress or reverses From 1'etrogrivl rnme what has flowed without Interrup tion for weeks consistent claims to tho progress of mission arms. From Pnrln, at the usual mid-afternoon hour, wns Issued the usual communica tion, sn-cnlbl, Interpreting the situation along the battle line of the western thea tre of the war In the light of those op posing the German Invasion. There were In the closely worded communication, ervptlc to an extent as always, hints of a greater diversity of operations than It ordinarily contains. OHRMANS NKAR LILJ.T. Above nil stood out the presenco of what was described as large masses of German cavalry near Lille, as the crow flies hardly ten miles from the Ilelglan frontier, nnd behind German forces mov ing on a line between Tourcolng nnd Ar mentieres, the latter point right at the Delglan border. At the same time, the official communi cation makes it plain that thenllles have not been Idle, nnd have been exvnllng their line on the left wing more and more widely. lilow for blow around Ar ras, the scene of ngulnary lighting re cently, Is evidently still the order thro. The snme may he said of the region be tween the Pomme nnd tho Olse for It is noticeable that the allies have claimed nothing there to-day except a see-aw advance and retirement They do main tain that they hnve repulsed the enemy near Insslgny, upon which the Germans made n violent attack. ALL. IKS ADVANTr, TO SOISSONR. At Solisons, where the nllles recently cleared the German trenches, they have, according to the announcement, pressed their advantage by mnklng a slight ad vance. It Is Xoyon which forms the elbow from which the allied line sweeps eastward. Pome advance for the allies Is also reported at Herry-Au-Pne. From Holrlum come nothing to Indi cate any change In the situation before Antwerp, except a brief line fucked at the bottom of the Parl official statement, assorting that the German attacks have failed along the line of the rl'er Hupol and the river Net he. The firltlsh press takes occasion to em phasize that, while the battle of tho Alsno holds llnat claim In the matter of senti mental Interest, the gigantic nperntlon. eif the Itusslan.

INVADKRP RKPORTKD RlOPFLSi:! ). j To-day's Petregrad official statement deals entirely with the German stand I on the Knit IVusslan frontier, making no mention of the situation either In Gallcla or Hungary The much heralded battle of Cracow, which It sems. all the , correspondents anticipated, h.i-i yet to he recorded as a matter of history. I From Uudapest-uot often heard from as a source of war news came a despatch saying that though no battles In Hungary had yet been decided, the Invaders were being repulsed. Whether It can be accepted as true or not, a Bordeaux special despatch re ports a general shake-up In the German 1 army command, following, but not i necessarily, the result of the reported removal of General Von Miltke as chief I of the general staff. The most lm 1 portant of the changes Is the shifting of General Von Hlndenburg from Last ! Prussia to uwhiime command at Cracow.

No suggestion or complaint thnt hns been ri'celved has been knowingly overlooked, but each has been given the cnretul con sideration it sei'Iiied to deserve-. This principle of co-operntlon should In my Judgment be encouraged. The governing poweis of the State and the Individual' voter should hnve a closer union If bent results nre to be obtained.
