IS VERY VITAL AL TO ALL NES CONCERNED. The Allies Have the Advantage in Preparing an Army to Threaten Von Kluck's Flank. London, Sept. 18---The great battle now in progress on a line extend- ing from the region of Noyon, on the River Oise, northwest of Paris, to the River Meuse, north of Ver- dun, is even more vital for the countries concerned than those which have preceded it. The front is somewhat shorter than was the case in the battle of the Marne, but this will only result in a more fiercely contested battle, with masses of troops throwing at each other and every available piece of artillery concentrated in the determined effort of the armies to break through 'the lines. Upon the armies of General Von Kluck and Generol Von Bulow de- pends the safety of the rest of the German army, should retreat be de- cided upon or forced upon them, besides holding the front, they have to be prepared to withstand anoth- er attempt on the part of the allies to outflank them. These German forces hold a posi- ticn from a point near Noyons, on the Oize, along the district north of 'the Aisne to the junction of the latter river with the Suippes. Be- hind them are splendid lines of rail- way running in all directions, which facilitate the movement of troop from St. Quentin, Guise and Mezier- es. 80 that in this respect they are well placed. The allies, on the other hand, can, and, it is believed, they are bringing in new troops through Rouen and Amiens to threaten the Germans' flank. In fact, nearly the whole of northwest France is now open to the allies, the Germans having with- drawn most of their scattered troops toward the Oise. The little British army that has fought so long and so hard is look- ing forward to support from the In- dian troops, which should soon be at the side of the Englishmen, if not for the present battle, then for the matter how it goes. The French froops, who also oc- cupy a valuable centre of oocupa- tion at Soissons--the engineers hav- ing closely followed the army and repaired the railroads--are being re- enforced, and. on the whole, both as to positions and strength of for- ces, the opposing armies should be evenly matched except for the ad- vantage of the allies in preparing an army to threaten Von Kluck's flank. : ENGINEER DIED WHILE AT DUTY Fireman Did Not Hear the Whis- tle and He Made En- quiries. Newburgh, N. Y., Sept. 18. -- Seized with heart disease James O'Brien, engineer on the Erie rail- way, died at his throttle while the train was making thirty miles an hour. Fireman Theodore Bolmas, failing to hear the whistle blow for a crossing, investigated and found him dead. He brought the train to a stop. AMONG THE LIST OF DEAD. One Of the Men Imprisoned in Ger- man Fortress. London, Sept 18. - Among the British officers killed, as made known in a casualty list, was Capt. Bertram Stewart, of the West Kent Capt. Stewart was one of two officers who were imprisoned in a German fortress for several months for spying, and was pardoned by Emperor William on the occasion of his last visit to England. In the list of dead also appear the names of Col. Sir Evelyn Ridley Bradford, of the Seaforth highland- ers, who was a well-known London- er, and Lieut.-Col. Louis St. Gratien le Marchant, of the East Lancashire regiment. Steamer Sank Near Quebec ; 14 Drowned Sept.

He gave his name as William Nutt, and the police registered him as a vagrant, but when he came before Magistrate Farrell, he succeeded in telling a story which the magistrate took into consideration, and he was given a chance. i Nitt is a stranger in our midst, and, 'according to his story, has been tramping about from place to place trying to get work. ing unable to land a job he thought the next best thing to do would be to enlist and go to the front.

The Board of Trade rooms are the busiest place in town with the force of stenographers and workers on the arrangements for next Tues- day, Wednesday and Thursday. These are the days that the collect- ing of the patriotic fund will be done, the first two days, by the lists and the last day the memrbers of the ten teams of 110 men will can- vass any one in the city that they think likely to contribute. It is a great work and the en- thusiasm that reigns in the Board of Trade rooms is contagious. Ev- ery one of the general committee is doing something towards perfecting the arrangements and the only talk on the street is about decorations, bands, autompbiles and things that will be used in the three days of next week that will result in phe- ing Kingston in the roll eof henor by her contribution to the National Patriotic fund. A request was made by the com- mittee on Friday that every auto- mobile owner and wagon driver in the city be out with decorations and lielp the good work along. A great number of car-owners have already offered their cars for the use of the workers on the great days even without being asked. This 'shows that the citizens are getting the right spirit that should be displayed in this great national work. | It must be remembered that mo- hey is being paid out now but much | more is needed to relieve the de-| nendents of some of Kingston's sol- diers who have started for the front. | The signs used by the Nationa!
