Minor News Of the War From Va
rous Points.

London, Oct. 13.-The capture of
Antwerp by the Germans is to be FOL-
lowed by an attack on Ostend, accord
ing to information received here from
The Hague.
Messages which arrived in London
said large force of Germans was
marching on the seashore resort to
which the larger part of the Belgian
and British troops retreated after they
had been forced to give up the de-
Tense Of the temporary capital of the
nation on Friday.
King Albert of Belgium and practi-
cally all of the national officials are
in Ostend. The Germans, 1t is said,
hope to make them prisoners. The
queen is in England, having taken a
steamer from Antwerp when it was
seen that the fall of the city was in
evitable.
The reports that King Albert had
been wounded persist Persons who
saw the king with his troops on FRI
day state that he had one arm in a
sling.
n
Siege Lasted Only Eleven Days.
Paris, Oct. 12.-The forts surround
ing Antwerp and the city are now IN
complete possession of the Germans,
but the greater part of the Belgian
army has escaped.
1t took the Germans just IL days to
capture one of the strongest fortresses
in the world.
An official admission that the Brit
ish participated in the defense Of Ant
werp is contained in the admiralty an
nouncement that three naval brigades
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 Brit
ish brigades reached Ostend safely.
The other, however, was cut off to the
north of Lokeren "a town of East
FLANDERS, IL miles northeast of GhenD.
and 1000 of the men were interned in
Holland
The retreat of the Belgian army was
accomplished successfully.
The losses of the British naval bri-
gades probably will be less than three
hundred out of a total of 5000 men.
The fall of Antwerp is evidence that
even the most powerful forts are no
match for the colossal howitzers which
the invaders have successfully en-
played against every fortified place
that stood in their way. These huge
guns open gaps through which the be,
siegers find an entrance for their field
artillery and infantry.
The Germans, after Smelling the city
itself for many hours, making il un-
tenable, entered the town through the
suburb OF Bercham, to the east. They
had made breach in the outer line OF
forts. some of which were destroyed
by the big guns and others blown NJ
by the defenders.
The Germans followed similar 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 farther out
soon succumbed to the enormous
shells. and on Friday morning several
of these forts had fallen, opening tbs
way for the Germans into the city. By
midday they were in occupation of the
town and at $3.50 in the afternoon the
war banner on the cathedral was re

placed by a white flag, indicating sur
render.
Belgian Army Escaped.
A few forts continued to hold out,
and it was not until eleven o'clock in
the morning that the Germans. accord
ing to their own official report, were in
complete possession of the city and
fortresses. When they arrived they
found that the Belgian field army and
at least part of the garrison had antici-
pated them. and, like the king and
royal family, had escaped.
The death roll resulting from the at
tack on and defense of Antwerp has
not been compiled, and probably the
full details never will be known; but
all accounts describe it as terribly
heavy. The Germans, although their
big guns cleared path for them, mad
to sacrifice many lives in crossing the
rivers and canals and in driving out
the defenders, who held the intrench-
ments to the last.
Refugees Flock to London.
Crowds of refugees arrived in Lon
don. Most of them left Antwerp Thurs
day night, and their accounts OF the
attack are confused The Belgians
themselves besides destroying the
forts, blew up steamers at the docks
and set fire to the petrol stores and
everything that could be of use TO the
invaders. They also took away what
the transports could carry.
Berchem. where the military and
other hospitals, the orphanage and
some public buildings are situated, is
reported to be entirely destroyed.
Even If this is an exaggeration, it must
be badly damaged, as it was burning
at least two days.
The Antwerp railway stations also
made marks for the shells from the
big guns, but according to some of
those who remained in the city the
cathedral. although hit by shells, is
only slightly damaged.
Germany has imposed fine of TO-
100000 pounds sterling ($100,000,000)
on Antwerp as a war indemnity.
A dispatch from The Hague says
that according to trustworthy informa-
ton from Belgium the Germans are
advancing swiftly toward Ostend with
the object of capturing the Belgian
king, queen and government officials.
1t is said the queen has left for Eng
land. A dispatch from Rozendaal,
Holland, says King Albert and the
main Belgian and, British force
reached Ostend safely in their retreat
from Antwerp. t
