Howitzers- Refugees Swarm to Engiand re / ' London, Oct.ll\u2014Antwerp and the forts surrounding the city are now in complete possession of the Germans, but the greater part of the army have made good their escape.It took the Germans just eleven days to capture the strongest forfress in the world.The fall of Antwerp is evidence that even the most powerful forts are no match for the colossal howitzers which the invaders have successfully employed against every fortified place that stood ia their way, The huge guns, completely outranging the gans of the forts, simply play havoc with the most solidly built defences and open gaps through which the besiegers find an entrance for their field artillery-and infanteze The Germans after shelling the city itself for many hours, making it untenable, entered the town through the suburb of Berchem, to the east, after they had made a breach in the outer line of forts, some of which were destroyed by their big guns, and others blown up by the defenders.The Germans followed simifar plans in dealing with the inner belt of forts and at the same time threw shells into the city which set afire many places, The inner forts, like those further out, soon succumbed to the enarmons shells, and on Friday morning several of these forts had fallen, opening tne way for the germans into the city.other hospitals, .he orphanages and some public buildings are situated, is reported to Le entirely desiroyed, and, even if this \u2018s an exaggeration, it must be badly damaged, as it was one of the first places where fire occurred, and was burning iv: at least two days.The railway stations also made a mark for the shells from the big guns, but.according to some of those who have reached here.the cathedral, which is in the centre of the city nearer the Scheldt, while struck, was not badly damaged.An English purse, who reached London today, said that the shelling of the city of Antwerp began on, Wednesday, and that a Zeppelin dropped a bomb in the garden of the hospital where she was working.The patients, numbering one hundred, -were- removed te the cellars, 30d en Thursday evening were taken by sa- tomobiles to Ostend, ~~

commands the ses, no great part of the German navy can use the port, even should Holland's objection to the use of the Scheidt hy belligerent ships be overruled by Germany.Germany, it is thought, may claim that being in possession of the city she acquires Belgium's rigat to use the river on equal terms with the Dutch and will proceed to build destroyers and submarines there to menace the British fleet.1f Holland should allow these vessels to pass through the Scheldt, England, it is declared, would certainly proclaim it a breach of neutrality.In any case, Holland's position becomes more and more uncomfortable.(RORDON\u2019S LONDON DRY GIN (UNSWEETENED) CORDON\u2019S OLD TOM GIN GORDON'S SLOE CIN = = = = ben \u201c QUEBEC, MONDAY, OBER ANTWERP'S | EUROPEAN C London, Oct.1r\u2014With the conclusion of that of the war of the mations which came with the fall of Antwirp the censorship has again drawn a veil over the fighting in fhe greater part of the European continent.\u2018 The French communication issued this afternoo with the battle, or series of battles, which has been in progress for four weeks from east to west in France, with an ever extending line which now reaches northward from the elbow at Noyon to and across the Belgian border at -Armentieres.The statement says that the Allies have held ther positions everywhere and that German cavalry which was at§empting to envelope the Allies\u2019 left wing and had scized certaib points of passage on the River Lys, to the east of Aire, was defeated yesterday and retired to the northeast into the Armentiqres district.At the same time the Germans delivered a vigdfous attack on the right bank of the Ancre river, between Arras a§d the Oise, without making any progress.i This indicates that the battle in Picardy, comprising the Department of Somme and part of Oise, Pas De Calais and Aisne, in which the cavalry is taking such a prominent part and on a scale not seen in previoas nmrodern wars, extends over a very considerable area.Here there are many miles of open country where horsemen can manoeuvre with advantage.Between the River Oise and Rheims, and particularly in the region northwest of Soissons, where the British forces are entrenched, further progress has been made.It thus seems probable that the Germans have abandoned some of their strongly entrenched positions in this neighborhood: It is reported that sanitary reasons have compelled this, as the trenches in which the troops have been living for wecks have become the \u2018breeding places for disease.: The Germans have resumed their night attacks between Craonng and Rheims, which, according to Frends seats, bave been repulsed.From Rfiéims to the Meuse nothing of impor.tance-hes aggurred of late, but in the Apremont district of the Woevre, to the cast of St.Mihiel, the Germans made violent attacks during the night of October 9 and the following day.Apremont was taken by the Germans, but was retaken by : the French and remains in their hands.The Germans apper- ently are determined to maintain as far as possible their positions here, where they have pierced the line of fortifications between Verdun and Toul along the River Meuse.Should they be successful against the Allies elsewhere, this doubtless would be the route by which they would endeavor to enter the heart of France.To remind Parisians that they are still in France, two German aeroplanes, which seem to choose Sundays for their visits, flew over the French capital today.They dropped a score of bombs, which killed three persons and wounded twenty, but did no material damage to the city.Part of the Antwerp garrison and 2,000 of the British naval volunteers who crossed into Holland and laid down their arms have been interned and will have to remain there until the end of the war.Some of the Germans also unwittingly crossed the frontier and were similarly treated, Of refugees there appears to be no end.The Dutch towns are now crowded with people who left their homes in Belgium and the Hollanders are finding some difficulty in providing for them.The Germans, however, have invited the refugess to return to their own country, promising them fair treatment.England also continues to be a place of refuge for many fugitives, besides wounded officers and men, who are crossing from Ostend on the regular steamers.In Antwerp everything is suiet after days of turmoil.The Germans who arranged with the burgomaster for the surrender of the town, all the military authorities having left, rave issued a warning to the people that any disturbances or attack on Germans will be severely dealt with.So far as can be ascertained, the damage done to Antwerp by the bombardment was not so serious as at first feared.The Cathedral, Art Gallery, Museum and other public buildings are in the northwestern part of the city along the Scheldt, to which the shells did not reach.The Germans used lighter guns after they had battered down the forts with their heavy guns, and nautrally the former did not do so much execution: A Berlin report says that these heavy guns have been sent to France.If this is so, probably the Verdun forts along the French frontier, which are hindering the German advance, are to be attacked with them.In this case, however, there is a big field army behind the forts, so that while the destruction of them would make progress casier for the Germans, it would not absolutely ensure their advance.General Von Beseler, who directed the attack on Antwerp, and Prince August William, fourth son of the German Emperor, who was one of the first to enter the city, have been decorated by the Emperor.What the taking of the town cost the Germans is not known, but it is reported from Holland that trainloads of wounded are being conveyed to the hospitals at the German base.Famine is threatened throughout Belgium, and this is a thing to be expected in a country which has been ravaged by war for upwards of two months.cals

Paris-Refugees Swarm To England-Kaiser\u2019s Big Guns May Now Be Used At Verdun-Belgium Is Threatened By Famine- Austrians Claim Victories Over Russians-Cholera Spreads In Austria WAR SUMMARY Scant are the actual details of the recent fighting between the \u2018Allies and the Germans who, for four weeks have been struggling for supermacy in northern France as contained in the latest official communication.\u201cWe have everywhere maintained our position\u2019 sums up the claims of the French War Office.At all points, except one, that in the Woevre district, German attacks are said either to have been repulsel or held.In the centre, between the Oise and Rheims slight advances by the Allies are chronicled.In the Woevre district the Germans have deilv- ered violent attacks.Whether they resulted favorably or unfavorably is not stated.From Germany alone came anything concerning the surrendered city of Antwerp.This was to the effect that the entire city as well as all the forts now are in the hands of the Germans.General Vou Beseler, the German commander at Antwerp, issued a proclamation that citizens might return to their vocations without fear of harm befalling them and that property would be respected.The German report said little damage had been done to any; except public buildings in Antwerp.Emperor William's army, which besieged Antwerp, is now said to be moving swiftly toward Ostend with the object of capturing King Albert and Queen Elizabeth and the Belgian officials.It is said that the Queen already has reached England.In addition to the force of Belgian and English troops who fled to Dutch soil after the fall of Antwerp and were interned a newspaper despatch says a German division unwittingly invaded Dutch territory and was disarmed.German aeroplanes again have made a dash over Paris, dropping bombs.Three persons were killed and fourteen injured and considerable damage to property was done.Qne missile fell on the roof of the famous Notre Dame Cathedral but failed to explode.French airmen gave chase to the invaders, but whether they caught any of them is not known.Except that a rear-guard action between the Russians and the Germans southeast of Wuerballen was in progress nothing came through concerning the fighting in the eastern war theatre.In the south the Montenegrins claim to have defeated with heavy losses an Austrian army operating against Sarayevo.A traveller from Belgrade reports that city almost destroyed by the continuous Austrian bombardment but that the Servians are gamely holding out.From the Far East the Japanese report that they have silenced Fort Iltis at Kiao- Chow and otherwise are gaining ground on the Germans.The Turks are strongly fortifying various places in Syria, Palestine and North Arabia.ee ra ES { The Weather | SPECIAL FOR foros muses ovens || SATURDAY & MONDAY which was southwest of the lakes on Saturday ims passed to the St.Lawrence Valley and a pronounced cool mate he PAP

THREE NAVAL BRIGADES ACTED IN DEFENCE OF ANTWERP\u2014TWO ARE NOW AT- OSTEND\u2014TWO THOUSAND MEN INTERNED IN HOLLAND.London, Oct.11\u2014The first official admission that the British participated in- the defence of Antwerp is contained in an Admiralty announcement late Saturday that three naval brig- sdes, with heavy guns, had been sent there during the last week of the German attack.The announcement adds that in the retreat from Antwerp two of the British brigades reached Ostend safely.The other, however, was cut off to the warth of Lokeren (a town in east Ftanders, 12 miles northeast of Ghent) and 2,000 of the men were interned in Holland.\u2018The retreat of the Belgian army was sccomplished successfully.The losses of the British naval brigades will probably be less than 300 out of a total of 8,000 men.Offficial Announcement.The Secretary of the Admiralty makes the following announcement: \u201cIn response to an appeal by the Belgian goverenment a marine brigade end two naval brigades, together with ' some heavy naval guns manned by a detachment of the Royal Navy, the whole under command of General Paris, R.M.A, were sent by His Majesty's government to participate \u2018in the defence of Antwerp during the List week of the attack \u201cUp until the night of Monday last, October 5, the Belgian army and marine brigade successfully defended the live of the Nethe River, but early on Tuesday morning the Belgian forces on the right of Malines were forced by a heavy German attack covered by very powerful artillery to retire, and in consequence the whole of the defence was withdrawn to the inner line of forts, the intervals between which had been strongly fortified.The ground which had been lost enabled the enemy to plant his batteries to bombard the city.\u201cThe inner line of defences was maintained during Wednesday and Thursday, while the city endured a ruthless bombardment.\u201cFhe behavior of the Royal Marines aod naval brigades in the trenches and in the field was praiseworthy in a high degree and remarkable in units so newly formed, and owing to the protection of the entrenchments the losses, in spite of the severity of the fire, are probably less than 300 out of a total force of 8.000.\u201cThe defence could have heen maintained for a longer period, but not long enough to allow of adequate forces being sent for their relief, without prejudice to the main strategic situation.\u201cThe enemy also began on Thursday to press strongly on the line of communications near Lokeren, The Belgian forces defending this point fought with great determination, but were gradually pressed back by numbers.\u201cIn these circumstances the Belgjan and British military authorities in Antwerp decided to evacuate the city.The British offered to cover the retreat, htt General De Guise desired that they should leave before the last division of the Belgian army.\u201cAfter a long tight march to Saint Gilles, the three naval brigades en- trained.Two out of the thre have arrived safely at Ostend, but, owing to circumstances which are not yet fully known, the greater part of the first naval brigade was cut off by a German attack north of Lokeren and 2.000 officers and men entered Dutch territory in the neighborhood of Hulst amd laid down their arms in accordance with the laws of neutrality, \u201cThe retreat of the Belgian army was successfully accomplished, The naval armored trains and heavy guns were all brought away, \u201cThe retreat from Ghent onwards of the last division and of the Belgian | army was covered by strong British | reinfor ements.\u201cVast \u2018numbers of the non-combat.| ant population of Antwerp, men, women and children, are streaming in flight in scores of thousands westward from the ruined and burning city.\u201d The Admiralty also reports in the same statement that the naval aviation pk.having completed its attack on sseldorf and Cologne.already reported, has returned safely to its base protected by armor:d cars.Ammunition Wasted.\u201cOn the finth of October, in spite of the perfection of their arrangement for ranging and observation there has been much waste of ammunition by the Germans.For instance, within an area of two acres on our side of the Aisne there are more than one hundred craters made by their high explosive shells.This shower of pro- lectiles, which must have eost some $5,000, did absolutely no damage, for the locality never happened to be oc cupied while it was being bombarded.It also incidently illustrated one weak point of indirect fire when unaceom- panied by observaiion.\u201cAnother example of prodigality ot ammunition is the continued shelling of Rheims.This la still carried on sat intervals, and on the 6th, resulted in the deaths of an entire family of eight people.the inhabitants were hit.Guns Well Concealed.\u201cOn the other hand, concealment of their own guns, as of all their troops, has been carefully practiced by the Germans and they construct alternative entrenchments, so that when one position is made too hot another can be taken up without loss of time.\u201cEver since the Souih African war the desirability of rendering troops as invisible as possible has been generally recognized in all the armies, and this war has thrown much fight on the matter.It appears that at tong ranges the uniform matters fit- tle, the blue coat and red trousers of the French infantry and cavalry nét being any more picturesque than the clothes of our men or of the Germans.But at medium ranges the red trousers of our allies show up clearly, When the infantry are lying down.however, their kepis are not so easily seen as our own flat topped forage caps.Officers Distinguishable.\u201cFrom interrogation of prisoners it has been ascertained that at medium ranges both French and British ofA- cers are very easily distinguishable from their men and that selected marksmen, provided with field glasses, are specially told off from each platoon of German infantry to pick off the officers.The French officer is betrayed by Lis accoutrements, while the British officer is given away by his sword, his open jacket with low collar and tie, his Sam Browne belt and because »f pack.Even such trifling differences as the color or cut of the breeches are said to be noticeable.\u201cThe Germans certainly do employ snipers.and some of them have been found on church towers, up trees and in house.One of them succeeded in killing two of our officers and wounding two more before he was accounted for.Some of our prisoners report that their officers have been re- ! quested to remove their distinguishing shoulder straps.but this may be in order to convey information to the enemy as to the unite to which they belong.At any rate, to judge from the officers already captured, the order has not been carried out generally.German Methods.\u201cThe following notification to his troops by one of the French army commanders bears upon the German methods of warfare: \u2018The Germans have forced their prisoners of war to remain in their trenches.When the French advanced under the impression that the trenches were in the possession of their own side, they were fired on \u201dt close range.That this has actually been done is fully confirmed.with illuminating details as , to German methods of war in the twentieth century, by an entry in a captured ficld note book.It runs thus: \u201c16th September.\u2014At dawn shelling began.We retired with prisoners.My two prisoners worked hard at digging trenches.At midday 1 got 2n urder to rejoin at the village with them.| was very glad, as I had been ordered to shoot them as soon a« the enemy advanved.Thank God! It wa: not necessary.\u2019 \u201cOu the other hand.an example is given of an order which prescribes only legal and suitable precautions except as regards the shooting of hostages for self protection in the enemy's country.It was issued some time ago: \u201c1Aix-la-Chapelle, 10th Avg, 1914.\u2014 To protect ourselves from the extremely hostile attitude of the Belgian population it is necessary to take very vigorous and energetic meausres against non-combatants who take part in the struggle.For this purpose no firearms or explosives must be retained by them.It is, therefnre, ordered that before a locality is occupied a detachment of all arms will march in ahead of the columns and warn the population.through the mayor and local clergy, to deliver up all arms, ammunition and explosives.After they have handed over their arms tne inhabn- ants will be collected outside the locality, and the houses and gardens will be searched.If any arms are found the hostages will be executed and the place set on fire.When the inhabitants are summoned to surrender their arms they will be informed of the penalties to which they expose themselves by non-compliance.The atms will be destroyed and the explosives thrown into the water (Signed.) VON QUAST, Commanding 1X, A.C.\u201cAnother German order of the .cc- ond army is quoted because it is possibly significant of the present state nf Germany's military resources: \u201c*The Minister of War wishes to impress upon ali the negessity for | On the 1th, twelve of | searching the field of battle with the greatest care for all warkke material belonging to our army, such as field glasses, water bostles, haversacks, rifles snd cartridges, off Timbers ana supply wagons which can be used for new formations.In addi tion to this, the units must take care to pick up unexpended ammunition and empty cartridge cases.\u2019 Description of Country \u201cThe lull in the operations on our immediate front, pending a general advance, affords an opportunity today ninth Oct., 1914, for giving some further description of the country in which we are operating and of the Valley of the Aisne.\u201cThe Aisne flows right across our front, following a tortuous course along the bottom of the valley, some hundred meters below the edge of the plateau on either bank.It is à placid stream between 150 and 200 feet in width and uniordable.The bottom of the valley down which it meanders, consists of practically flat meadow land intersected by various roads leading north and south over bridges which span the river.These roads are lined with poplars or fruit trees.whose military significance lies in the fact that they screen the movements along the romds, though on the other hand they make the pogi- en of the latter conspicuous from: ar.Soissons In Front \u201cThe chief place along the British front is Soissons, a town lying os.the left bank at a pronounced bend northwards.The villages on the river itself are of considerable tactical importance, since most of the bridges are close to them.They have, therefore, been the targets of the German artillery and some are now ho more than masses of ruins.\u201cSeveral of the hamlets at some distance from the Aisne and on its left bank have forcied the objects of similar attentions from the enemy's guns, probably because they might serve às posts of concentration for our troops, as have also the great number of roads winding down the hillsides facing north and leading across the meadows, which afford the only channels of approach to our troops on the north side.\u201cIn regard to the villages one point which strikes the eye is \u2018their compactness, for in most of them the houses are clustered together in une mass, outlying houses being rare.They line the roads sometimes almost entirely on one side.There are also outlying chateaus and arms quite isolated.\u201cThe other main topographical features of the valley are two railways and a canal.Generally speaking, the slopes forming the north side of the valley are steeper than those of the south, but in other respects the two sides are very similar.Both are equally cut up into spurs and subsidiary valleys, thé chief of the latter, on the south, being formed by the water course of the Vesle, which extends south-eastward througn Braisne.Plenty of Woods \u201cBoth on the north and south the slopes leading down to the Aisne are thickly wooded in patches, the woods in some places stretching away back and over the edge of the plateau for some distance On account of the existence of those woods on the edges of the slopes on our bank of the river, it is at many points only possible to obtain glimpses of the short trenches of the opposite slopes, while the woods on that side screen large portions of the top of the plateau on the north \u201cOwing to the concealment afforded to the German fire trenches and sun emplacements by the woods, ana to the fact that nearly all the bridges and ronds leading to them.as well as a great part of the southern slopes ate open to their fire, the position held by them is a very strong one \u201cExcept for these ; atches of woods the terrain generally is unenclosea.No boundary between the fields exisi as in England There are ditches here and there, but no hedges, wire fences or walls except around enclosures in + ; | the villages A large proportion of the woods, however, are enclosed by high rabbit netting which is in some places supported by iron stanchions \u201cA feature of this part of the country, one which is not confined to the neighborhood of the Aisne, is the large number of caves, hoth natura! and artificial, and quarries These are of great service to the forces on both sides, since they can often be used as sheltered accommodation for the troops in the second line.\u201cOther points worthy of note are the excellence of the metalled roads, though the metalled portion is very narrow, and the comparative case with which one can find his way ahout even without à map.\u2018This is due partly to the prevailing straightness of the roads, partly to the absence of hedges.There are sign posts on all cross roads, while the name of each village is posted in a conspicuous place at the entry and exit of the main highway passing through it.\u2019 nostgogocasdgytus GERMAN DIVISION REPORTED INTERNED.London, October 11\u2014An undated despatch received by Reynold's Weekly, says that according to Belgian soldiers near the Dutch frontier, a German division unwittingly crossed the border into Holland and has dein interned.8 2 » 2 ° Ÿ 8 a 9 2 0 od 9 ot » \u2014 QUEBEC, MONDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1914.EXPERT DISCUSSES - FALL OF ANTWERP ARGUMENT 18 ADVANCED THAT PERMANENT FORTIFICATIONS ARE FUTILE.Paris, Oct.11\u2014The military consequences of the fail of Antwerp are not so great as the lesson to be learned therefrom the futility of permanent fortifications.This opinion is expressed by Lt.-Col.Rousset who says that it will be necessary to abandon entirely this sort of defence and replace it with rude works of easy and quick construction which can be placed anywhere according to the need of the hour.Then, he says, shells, because of the absence of resistance, would cause only small damage.Never, he declared, has a country been saved by its fortifications while there are those | whose fortresses have been their ruin.Col.Rousset continues: \u201cTo speak only of that which concerns us, it is permissible to affirm that if Metz had been in 1870 an open city.Bazaine would not have sent forth from there his magnificent army for the subsequent loss of which he was condemned to death and did actually suffer imprisonment.\u201cBelgium believed itself protected | by its triple barrier of Li:ge, Namur and Antwerp.Alas! It was not.No more are we with Maubeuge or the Austrians with Lemberg and Przemysl The real safeguard of a nation is an effective military force that can stay an army of invasion.\u201d The observations of Rousset which are published today, have created special interest in view of the possibility of heavy siege operations later in the campaign.OSTEND THINKS ITS TURN COMING GERMANS INTEND TO OCCUPY WHOLE OF BEBGIUM, SAYS GENERAL.London, the says: \u201cThe past two days have been a hard experience for Ostend, which is crowded with refugees who are being despatched as rapidly as possible to England.\u201cSaturday soon after the news of the fall of Antwerp became known Ostend was thrown into panic by a visit from « Zeppelin which, however, was frightened away by the accurate fire of a British gun behind the fort.\u201cThe one thought uppermost in all minds here is what is the prospect of the Germans setting foot on Ostend.But it is dificult to see, owing to the flatness of the country, how the Germans can be kept away from the remaining coast Lae unless the Allies make a successiul turning movement on the main battle line.\u2018We intend to occupy the whole of Belgium.\u2019 declared General Von luttwitz, German military governor of Brussels, a few davs ago.\u201cZeppelin airships played a considerable part in the siege of Antwerp.They \u2018dropped more than 150 bombs on the city Thursday.\u201d Oct.12\u2014A despatch to Daily Telegraph froin Ostend HEADACHE, COLDS, COSTIVE BOWELS, TAKE CASCARETS | TONIGHT!

German Bands Busy.\u201cOn Saturday.Oct.3, practically \u201cnothing happened except that each side shelled the other.Towards evening on Sunday there was a similar absence of activity.Opposite one portion of our line the enemy's bands .played patriotic airs.and the audiences which gathered gave a chance to our waiting howitzers.i \u201cNot only do their regimental bands i perform occasionally, but with their ' proverbial fondness for music the Ger- \u2018mans have in some places gram- ,aphones in their trenches.\u201cOn Monday, the fifth, there were three separate duels in the air be- {tween French and German aviators, jone of which was visible from our | trenches.Two of the struggles were, {s0 far as could be seen.indecisive, but in the third the French airmen were victorious and brought down their opponents, both of whom were killed «by machine gun fire.The observer (was so burned as to be unrecogniz- ahle.\u201cDuring the day some men of the Landwehr were taken prisoners by us.They were in very poor condition and wept copiously when captured.One, on being asked what he was erying for, explained that though they ! had heen advised to surrender to the ! English they believed that they would i be shot.| \u201cOn that evening our airmen had an unusual smount of attention paid to them both by the German aviators [and their artillery of every

fire at insignificant targets.They have the habit of suddenly dropping heavy shells without warning in localities or villages far behind our front line, possibly on the chance of catching some of our troops in bivouas or billets.They also fire a few rounds at night.German Artillery.\u201cThe artillery has up to now played so great a part in the war that a few general remarks descriptive of the methods of its eraployment by the enemy are justified.Their field artillery armament consists of 15 pr.Q-F guns for horse and field batteries of divisions, and there are, in addition, with each corps three to six batteries of 43-inch field howitzers and about two batteries of 5.9-inch howitzers.With an army there are some 82-inch heavy howitzers.\u201cThe accuracy of their fire is apt at first to cause some alarm, more especially as the guns are usually welf concealed, and the position and the direction from which the fire is proceeding are difficult of detection.But, accurate as is their shooting.the German gunners have, on the whole, had little luck, and during the past three weeks an astonishingly small propor: tion of the number of shells fired by them have been really effective.\u201cQuite the most striking feature of their handling of the artillery is the speed with which they concentrate the fire upon any selected point.They dispense to a great extent with the method of ranging.known by us as bracketing.especially when acting on the defensive, and direct their fire by means of squared maps and the tele phone.Thus when the target is found, its position on the map is telee phoned to such batteries as it is de.i sired to employ against that particulas square.\u201cIn addition to the guns emploved to fire on the targets as they are pick, ed up, others are told off to watch particular roads and to desl with any oi the enemy using them.Range-Finding Methods.\u201cBoth for the location of targets and the communication of the effect of the fire reliance is placed on observation from acroplanes and balloons and on information supplied by special observers and secret agents who are sent out ahead or left behind in the enemy's lines to communicate by | telephone or signal.These observers have been found in haystacks, barns and other buildings with the advance of the German lines.Balloons of the | so-called sausage pattern remain up in the air for long periods for the ; purpose of discovering targets, and until our aviators made their influence felt by chasing all hostile aeroplanes on sight.the latter were continually hovering over our troops in order to register their positions and to note where the headquarters, reserves, gun teams.ete.were located.\u201cif similar targets are discovered ! the airman drops 8 smoke ball directly over it or lets fal! some strips of tinsel which glitter in the sun as they slowly descend to the earth.The \u2018range to the target is apparently ascertained by those nearest the guns by means of large telemetre or other range finders, which is kept trained on the aeroplane, so that when, the signal is made the distance to the tar- wet vertically below is at once ob tained.A few rounds are then fired and the result is signalled back by the aviator according to some pre-arrang- ed code.\u201d COUGNARRRDNRS NENT DEMAND INDEMNITY FROM ANTWERP London, Oct.12, 4:15 am\u2014 Germany has imposed a
