[" Sherbrooke Daily Record m Established 1897 SHERBROOKE, QÜE.MONDAY, SEPTEMBER, 20 1915 ONECEN; RUSSIANS HOLD DVINSK FRONT IN EXCELLENT LINE OF TRENCHES Despite Constant Fierce Attacks They Have Held Enemy Oft Thus Far.Enemy Has Gained No Decisive Advantage, Their Attempts Being Paid for with Heavy Loss of Life.Russian Defence is Improving Every Week, and if World Thinks Germans are Driving this Army Before Thom it Makes a Gross Mistake, says London Times Correspondent.London, Sept.20.\u2014(Special)\u2014The Times to-day published the following despatch from a correspondent with the Russian forces, sent on Saturday from Dvinsk: \u201cI spent three days on this front, where a terrific battle is raging almost unceasingly.When attacks die away at one place they begin instantly at another.The nearest front is only twelve miles from Dvinsk, whose deserted streets resound with the detonations of heavy gunfire.\"The Russians are holding the Dvinsk front in an excellent line of trenches, three deep, and despite constant fierce attacks supported by concentrations of heavy artillery, they have held the enemy off thus far.Many times the first line has been taken by the enemy, then retaken by our counter-attacks.The Germans are twice or thrice our strength and have enormous superiority in guns as always, hut hitherto they have gained no decisive advantage, their attempts being paid for with heavy loss of life.\"The character of the Russian defence is improving every week, and if the outside world thinks the Germans are driving this army before them it makes a gross mistake.If the Riga and Dvinsk stories are typical of Russian rearguard operations, their nature is such as should cause more depression among the Germans than among the Russians, and, with winter approaching sn l no important objective attainable before the season changes, I believe the German commanders must now recognize a growing anxiety.\u201d RUSSIANS FORCED ENEMY TO FLEE.Petrograd, Sept.20.\u2014 (Special) \u2014\"A fortified position of the enemy near Novoseltry, southeast of Olti, was attacked on the front and the enemy was dislodged.Our troops in pursuit extinguished a fire on a bridge over the Styr, which the enemy had lighted.Part of our forces again turned the enemy in their retreat and forced them to flee into the forest.We occupied the village of Kolki.\u201cOn the west front between the River Stubela and the line from Dubno to Kromoniz our troops attacked th\u2019 enemy in many places and recaptured parties of prisoners, for we strove to take advantage of disorders which have become frequent in the enemy's ranks.\"On the Soroth front engagements local in character continued in the Immediate vicinity of the river.Near the village of Dakovitch, on the Strumeni River south of Pinsk, one of our detachments was seen holding back a German battalion with machine gun fire.It annihilated about two companies of the rnsmy.\"In the region of Kolki our cavalry charged the enemy\u2019s entrenchments and captured several machine guns and about a hundred prisoners, suffering only insignificant losses in return.Near the village of Kulni, north of Kolki, a squadron of our men chased an Austrian squadron into the marshes, took fifty prisoners, captured a number of f ield kitchens, and saved from the marshes some fifty horses.The rest, of the horses perished.\"According to the testimony of Austrian prisoners, there were cases during the recent operations wherein detachments of the enemy remained in one spot for several days, enable to extricate their artillery from the marshes.\u201cOn the Stokholda are reported eases of Austrians disguising themselves as peasants in order to cross ihe river for the purpose of installing machine guns.\u201d MORE \u201cSUCCESSES\u201d CLAIMED BY TURKS.Constantinople, Sept.20, via London.\u2014(Special)\u2014A statement issued by the War Office says: \u201cOur reconnoitering parties near Anafarta on Saturday night drove away similar parties of the enemy and successfully threw bombs into the enemy\u2019s trenches.\u201cOur artillery succeesfully bombarded Saturday the enemy\u2019s camp near Kemikle Liman.\u201cNear Sddul Bahr our artillery silenced the enemy\u2019s guns which had bombarded the centre of our positions.\u201cOur reconnoitering detachments approached the trenches of ihe enemy near Kerevigedere, which were successfully attacked with bombs.\u201cOn Saturday afternoon our Ciast battery bombarded the Oamau positions of the enemy\u2019s artillery and infantry near Seddul Bahr.In the afternoon a warship of the Patrie class and hostile batteries on the mainland near Seddul Bahr shelled our coast batteries for one hour without damage.\u201d DIRECT QUERY TO BULGARIA COMPLETE AND LASTING PEACE Entente Allies Have Presented a British M.P.Told French Socialists Joint Note Asking That Pos- That Liberation of Oppressed ition be Defined\t^as :'aRteiJ BULGARIAN GOVERNMENT MUST STATE WHETHER COUNTRY IS WITH ALLIES OR CENTRAL POWERS'.Paris, September.20.\u2014 The Entente Allies have presented a joint note to the Bulgarian Government asking in effect that it declare itself as between them and the Central Powers.The note, however, is not in the nature of an ultimatum.The note, which was delivered to the Government at Sofinfc two days ago, was sent in pursuance of a decision by the Allied powers to test the good faith of Bulgaria by submitting the recent concessions made by Serbia with the view of securing from Bulgaria a definite statement as to her position.Although the note does not fix a date for a reply and is not an ultimatum, diplomats familiar with its contents say it is of a nature requiring Bulgaria to take a stand one way or the other.It points out that the Allied Powers are now prepared to offer the Serbian concession on Bulgaria\u2019s claims to disputed territory, j and asks Bulgaria If the concessions secured through the joint offices of the Allies will bring about Bulgaria\u2019s co-operation with the other Balkan States.What, if any, reference is made to Greece is not disclosed, but it appears to be considered that Serbia\u2019s concession should suffice to secure Bulgaria's adherence to the Balkan Union.A visit paid yesterday to all the legations here of the Balkan States revealed them showing deep interest, bordering on agitation, on the latest turn of events.The general view expressed in Greco-Serbian quarters was that the note of the Allies brought the question to a definite issue which would not permit Bulgaria to avoid reaching a determination whether to cast their lot with- the Entente Allies or with the Central Powers.Officials and diplomats are now awaiting Bulgaria\u2019s answer to the allied note as the turning point in the Balkan situation.IF LAST MAN GOES UP VOLUNTARILY, THEN BRITISH WILL ACCEPT CONSCRIPTION.Paris, Sept.20.\u2014(Special)\u2014\u201cWe do not want a premature, but a complete and lasting peace,\u201d said John Hodge, a member of the British Parliament, in an address last night at a meeting of French Socialists.\u201cWe do not want conquest, but the liberation of all oppressed peoples.\u201cWe are anxious to beat Germany,\u201d declared Mr.\t\u201chr voluntarv service, but if the Government says we have had the last man uy .tie voluntary system and must now have ! conscription, then I say we will have \u2019 it.\u201d The meeting was the first of a series organized to explain to the French workers what Great Britain is doing in the war.lECIUIITMS IN AUSTRALIA Grand Total of Expeditionary Forces to Date Number 117,000 Men CHEEK STEAMER ON FIRE AT SEA Passengers and Crew are Now on Board Anchor Liner Tuscaniaon Way to New York THE ATHINAI LEFT NEW YORK ON THURSDAY FOR PIRAEUS, GREECE, WITH FEW PASSENGERS.New York, Sept.20.\u2014(Special) -The Anchor liner Tuscania was believed.to be on her way to New York to-day bringing the passengers and crew of the Greek steamer Athinai, | which was on fire and abandoned at sea, according to wireless messages; received from Captain McLean, of the ! Tuscania.The Athinai left New York last' Thursday for Piraeus, Greece, carry- ! ing few passengers, a large general cargo and many bags of mail.The position of the burning vessel was giveu in Captain McLean\u2019s mes-1 sage as latitude 40.54 north and longitude 58.47 west, about 200 miles nearly south of Sable Isknl and more than 500 miles east of New York.FREIGHT HANDLERS GUT GN STRIKE CONSCRIPTION TURNEO DOWN ) Government Expected to Eecide That Voluntary System is Sufficient For Situation GOVERNMENT WILL MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT ON QUESTION IN COMMONS TO-MORROW.London, Sept.20.\u2014It is predicted with assurance by usually well-informed observers that the decision which the Government is expected to reach next Tuesday will be that conscription for the present remains inexpedient and that the voluntary sys-J tem, aided by the new information obtained and improved methods of recruiting available from the recent national registration, continues to be Great Britain\u2019s best plan for coping with the military requirements of the future, for at least a year to come.There is some speculation as to whether the newspaper and political campaign for conscription has not tended to strengthen this expected decision of the cabinet, inasmuch as ,it stirred up opposition which other-i wise would have remained dormant.Echoes of an alleged plot by certain ministers to force the Government's hand are still the chief political gossip of the hour.The Daily News\u2019 revelations are ascribed to a desire on the part of the anti-conscription-ists to baffle the conscriptionists\u2019 plan by premature publication.The conscriptionists loudly proclaim the whole story to he a mare\u2019s nest.MORE NOW IN FRANCO 2nd Division Landed Safely op Continent It Is Stated MAY INCLUDE 5TH MOUNTED RIV FLES, BUT PROBABLY NOT.Ottawa, Sept.20.\u2014The Minister of!

I will be increased to 10,600 in October and 10,600 in November.President of Longshoremen States Trouble was Not Authorized by tire Association New York, Sept.20.\u2014(Special)\u2014 Richard J.Butler, president of the New York District Council of the International Longshoremen\u2019s Association, began to-day an effort to settle the strikes of freight handlers at the terminals of several railway and steamship companies here.The United Fruit Company\u2019s steamers, tfie West Shore, Lehigh Valley and Jersey Central railways have been affected by\u2019 tile various strikes now in progress.Mr.Butler said that none of these strikes had been sanctioned by the Longshoremen\u2019s Association.GERMAN GOLD CAUSE OHTRIKES Believed to be Responsible For Unrest Among Workmen Throughout Russia Petrograd, Sept.20.\t\u2014 We have good reason for believing that strikes that have broken out here and there have been procured by the free use of German gold.The strikers at one mill here were openly saying, \u201cWhy should we not strike work ?The (Ter.vi a ns -., e us pAeftty of jnoney ; without working for it.\u201d In other places, while some admit-; ted that they had received German .money, and said they did not need It is not thought that the above includes the 4t.h, 5th and 6th Mounted Rifles Brigade under Col.Smart,, though it is possible that it does.The 5th Rifles were of the 3rd Contingent, and as it was announced recently their cavalry equipment was to he restored, it is not thought likely that they were of the division, referred to above, though ft is quite possible that they may have been.The Montreal battalions with the1 Second Canadian Division are the 22nd \"French-Canadiaus,\u201d under Lt.-Col.Gaudet; the 24th \u201cVictoria Rifles,\u201d under Lt,-Col.John A.Gunn, and the 42nd Royal Highlanders ot Canada, under Lt.-Col.G.8.Cantlie, TO HANDLE CREDIT LOAN largest Underwriting Syndicate tbe Western World Has Ever Known Now Being \u201c New York, Sept.20.\u2014(Special)-v The largest underwriting syndicats the western world has ever seen was in process of formation to-day to handle the proposed billion dollars credit loan to Great Britain and France, which has now shrunk, it was reported, to a sum, yet to be determined, between 1600,000,000 an.60c.ONIONS\u2014 New crop ;\t3 lbs.for.13c, CANNED LOBSTER\u2014 New stock Canned Lobster ; the finest, grade.Usual 30c.tin.Eig Sale To-morrow .25c.Reg.To-morrow Salad Dressing .10c.pkt, 2 lor 15;.Gold Dust Washing Powder 10c.\t2 for 15c Good Rice .6c.ij lbs.15c.Stove Blacking .\t10c.box 2 for 15c.Graham Flour.\t6c.lb.3 lbs.15c.Lye .10c.tin 2 .or 15c.Blueing .20c.lb.\t15c lb.Standard Daisy Baking Powder .20c.tin\t15c.Laundry Starch.loc.lb.2 lb».15c.Deans .9c.lb.2 lbs.15c.Split Peas .10c.lb.2 lbs.15c.Corn Meal .5c.\t4 lbs.15c.Fine Table Salt.lOc.bag 2 for 15c.Barley .6c.lb.3 lbs.15c.Sweet Chocolate .\t7c.\t3 fo; 15c.Cow Brand Soda.6c.lb.4 for 15c.SPECIALS REDPATH GRANULATED SUGAR, 14 LBS.FOR .$1.00 FINEST PASTRY FLOUR IN 25- LB.COTTON BAGS .95c.«S CLOTHES PINS FOR.10c.MEGANTIC CO.if Deaths Reported tlAl I LlllllUv DBATH 0F J08EPH OOYETTE, BOARD OF Budget of News from Various resident, who had been ill since Jan- Actions of County SUTTON.Sutton, Sept.10.\u2014\u2018Special).\u2014Mr.|\t- Joseph Goyette, a lifelong s«tton 1 ^ 0OO^ Qelegâtion of Members Will Attend \u2014 » 411 r-, 4 t-i h Tar»- ; nary last, died on Thursday, the funeral taking place at the Catholic BEA'URIVAGE.\t!
