Paris, No*. 9.—The French offic-

"On aur left wing, the Germans
nave aiderUlen again an offensive
dOTemeat on Dlxmudc and in region
of tk« Vpres, particuiarij to the

At the end of the day, referring
to th« entire front between IHxmude

Joag the major part of the line.
Nevertheless, our advance Is slow
on account of the offensive move-
ments undertaken by the enemy,
and because of the strong organisa-
tion the enemy hns had time to ef-
fect around his points of support
since beginning of the fighting. The
tog, furthermore, has made opera-
tions difficult, particularly between
the Elys and the Olse.
"In Alsage fresh attacks by the
Germans against the heights of

London, Not. 9.—At three pointa
u ike area of hostilities, Silesia,
Hast Prussia and in Alsace, the
Miles are on German soil today,
and for the first time since the out-
break of hostilities, conditions seem-
ed to presage, in the opinion of
British military observers, a rever-
sal of the roles of the contending
armies.
Up to present time, Germany has
been fighting in the territory of her
enemies, but now she would appear
to be more seriously menaced from
the east by the victorious armies
of Grand Duke Nicholas, the Rus-
sian commander in chief in the
field, the advance guards of which
are less than two hundred miles
from Berlin.

Twenty-one directors and former
directors of the New Haven rail-
road, most of them millionaires, and
