BRUSSELS (via Paris), August c.
Thousands of dead and wounded Ger
man soldiers and a repulsed German
army are the results last night of an
ull-day battle near Liege, Belgian
city close to the German and Dutch
frontiers.
Called upon to stop the advance OF
the Kaiser 5 troops across their native
land in an effort to reach France, the
Belgian army rose to unexpected
heights of hcroism and fighting ability,
and first halted, then drove back, the
TcHton invaders.
Some Of the German army managed
to get past Liege, on either side of the
city. But the Belgians. after rcpulsing
the main body Of Germans, delivered a
vigorous counter attack upon those who
had slipped by under cover OF the heavy
fighting. The result was slaughter
Every German who passed the forts of
Licgc was killed.
Eight hundred wounded Germans lasI
night were being transferred to LIege

number Of casualties is not known, but
they are estimated to be we'll into the
