Washington, Oct. l2.-An official re
port received here to-day describes the
efforts Of German military authorities
at Brussels TO send word through the

in accordance with the strict neutrality
OF the United States, TO be the bearer
Of military messages TO any of the
belligerents. The Germans insisted all
other means Of communication had
failed The Spanish Minister, who was
in conference with Mr.. Whitlock when
the representations we're made, finally
decided to send the Spanish naval at
tache TO Antwerp with the notification.
A report from American Consul Cen
eral Diederich at Ostend says he is en-
dcavoring 20 return 20 Antwerp 10 re-
sumo mis- consular work there.
Mr.. Dederick fled with his family
from the city after the bombsrdment
had begun. and Harry Tuck Sherman,
the vicc-consul, delayed his departure
with his family so long that they sui
fered terrible privations and personal
danger in getting to place OF safety:
Even now they are without money and
i'm an uncomfortable situation.

Holland has to-day been bombarded
with copies of the "Koelnische lei
tung," which has apparently taken
upon itself the task Of spreading
among the Dutch the bitterest vitu-
peration Of England and her motives
regarding the defence of Antwerp.
Copies of this paper are forced anx-
iously into tho hands of all persons
in the streets here.
II is obvious the whole thing is a
carefully prepared attempt 10 counter
act the effects on Dutch feeling Of the
presence Of the tides of refugees who
have crossed the frontier during the
last four days. The natural effect of
even seeing these people, without hear
ing their stories. is 10 cause revul-
sion of feeling against Germany.
The "koelnische Zeitung" has col
iected all the denuncation Of England
that it could find in other journals, and
it quotes with relish such comments as
Antwerp is the sacrifice TO England's
self-seeking ambition and cowardce.
England forced this catastrophe on the
Belgisns. England is too cowardly to
set her own national power in the field.
England has tricked Belgium and
brought her to the shambles."
The Vienna "Frendenblatt" says:
Always at the back Of the English
nations head is the thought of bust
ness. If the harbors Of Antwerp had
fallen unchanged into the bands OF

agreeable for the English. They could
