GERMAN RAIDS ARE CHECKED
Channel Ports Safe for a Time-Losses
or Both Sides Are Heavy
As Battle RACES.

London.-The German raid on the
channel ports, as 1t Is called here,
seems to have been checked for the
time being, or, at any rate, the Ger.
mans have made little, If any, prog.
ress since they crossed the User canal.
They, however, are still pushing with
all the forces at their command, and
are meeting with stubborn resistance
from the French, British and Belgian
troops.
Losses on both sides continue pro.
portionate to the ~fierceness Of the bat
tie, which that they are greater
than those in any battle since war was
declared, now nearly three months
ago.
Along the coast, where the allies are
assisted by French and British war
ships, they apparently have more than
held their own, and after inflicting
heavy losses on the Germans have
compelled them to try for an opening
farther inland. Up until recently the
allies had been forced to give way at
some points, but now, according to
the French official communication,
they have held their positions at every
point from the mouth of the User to
the Lens district, and again have ad.
vanced between Ypres and Roulers.

London.-The lurid glare Of burning
bushes, with shadowy figures lined
family against a background Of smoke,
working like demons in an inferno of
their own creation; the spiteful rattle
Of machine guns; the oar Of bursting
shells; the impact of driven bayonet
against human flesh and bone; the
cries of wounded; shouts of triumph;
shrieks of despair; rivers running red
with blood, through heaped up piles of
dead-this is the battle Of Flanders, as
London pictures 1t from the brief but
hasty details telegraphed from the
fighting front.
"A massacre, not a fight; a butch
cry, a shameless" such are the phrases
used over and over by correspondents
endeavoring to give an inkling Of the
events of this bloodiest battle of the
war. "No quarter is asked and none
is given. 1t is the battle Of the bayo-
nets"
Belgian regiments have been deci-
mated to a third OF their former fight
ing strength; British troops stand grim
and logged In the face Of fearful loss;
gallant Frenchmen shout with the lust
of combat, and opposed to them in the
sublime grandeur of death the solid
ranks OF Germans march answering
ly against q whitening fire and literally
bestrew the landscape with their
corpses. There Is no chance to bury
the dead or care for wounded; the
ground they lie on is narrowed and
furrowed over and over by the spray
ing bullets Of mitrailleuses and the
tearing fragments of bursting shrap-
mel.
And out OF the chaos there looms
n fact from which England at home
may extract some comfort. The Ger
mans seem to be stopped.

oe' &, about whom there has been
McA gossip because OF his Austrian
Arigin, has resigned his position as
Sftra sea lord OF the admiralty. No
open charges have been made against
him, but a nespaper campaign against
his holding such a high command Is
Thought responsible for his withdrawal.
Announcement Of Prince Louis res
ignation was made in the court circu-
lar, which stated that the primes had
been received in audience by the king
on relinQuishing his appointment.
Although born In Austria, Prince
Louis came TO England as a boy and
was n%aturalized in 1868, when he was
only IA years old. Twenty-three years
later he was promoted to a captaincy
and after another Is years became a
real admiral. He was appointed first
sea lord In 1912, Il few years after his
visit to America.
Beside the fact that he was born In
Austria, the chief argument his oppo-
nents made against him was that he
Is the brother-in-law OF Prince Henry
of Prussia, who holds a somewhat sim
ilar command In the German navy.
There were rumors some time ago
that Prince Louis had been confined
in the Tower Of London. These reports
gained little serious consideration,
however, but the authorities deemed 1t
expedient that he should appear more
in public instead Of combining himself
70 the admiralty, where, since the out
break Of the war, he had been work
ing night and day directing the STRAIT
egy Of the navy. He was considered
one Of the most noted strategists Of
the admiralty.
