Brussels Will Fall.

That Brussels will be taken is &C
cepted here as practically certain.
All of the London papers say 1t will,
be asking too much to expect the al
lied armies to keep the Germans out
of Brussels. They point out that the
German forces engaged total more
than 100000 and that with reserves
packed In the rear the kaiser has a
total of close to 100000 men available
for the first offensive operation.
But they insist that 1t will be i'm.
possible for the Germans to reach the
Belgian-French boundary.
That the British troops are engag

likely. The censor refuses to permi.

sidered sufficient proof that they are

GERMANY APPROVES
CENSORSHIP PLAN
CIphers Will Be Sent When
Passed Upon by American
Naval Official.

The wireless censorship question has
been brought near 10 solution by Ger
msny's approval. in the main. OF the
plan suggested by this Government of
permitting code messages to be sent
from the Sayville, l. l., station, after
they have been passed upon by an
American naval officer. Count Won
Bernstorff. the German ambassador,
was expected TO communicate the reply
OF his government to the State De-
partment today. The suggested CEN
sorship Of cables. it is declared. is no
longer being given consideration.
Not only Germany. but diplomatic
be permitted, under the new arrange
ment. to send code messages, the un-
neutral nature of which has been estab-
nshed, to their governments. Germany
is most interested in the matter, how
ever. and its SayvilIe station provides
its only means of telegraphic communi-
cation. while the cables are open to the
allies governments
The plan as now considered provides
that copies OF code messages must be
given to the navy wireless censor be-
fore the messages are transmitted, and
II he is satisfied that NJ violation of
neutrality Is involved. the cipher may
be sent Germany has suggested slight
notifications in the plan. but in ad-
vance of their being submitted to this
Government they will not be made pub

GERMAN SAMOA IS

possibility that might later have be-
come serious.

that this action was designed so that
she might take not only additional ter
ritory in Chtua. but also German
Samoa, which has strategic possibili-
ties when the safety of tho Panama

That the British government was de-
