OUTLINE OF WAR SITUATION
FROM GERMAN VIEWPOINT BY
MAJOR ZURICH RITTER

lent as they claim 1t was. why are
not the French carrying the horrors
of war to German soil? The outer
forts OF Longwy have been taken by
the Germans. German vanguards are
marching through Montmedy, Pont A
Mousson and Luneville. The French
have always been the military trainers
of the Belgians, and French engineers
laid out the Belgian forts. Would it
not have been military suicide If Ger
many had not anticipated the danger
and occupied Belgium before France
had the opportunity?
Strong French detachments took
possession of Alsace on August 10 and
successfully made their way through
the passes of the Vosges. A glance
at the map will show that these passes
could not have been fortified, as Bel
fort, by the treaty of Frankfort, was
left in the hands of the French. Yet
France could not hold Muelhausen,
being driven out by the Fourteenth
Baden corps which took 5000 French
prisoners, four cannon and killed or
wounded so many French that the
hospitals of Muelhausen could not ac-
commodate all of the wounded.
The Austrian Tyrolese corps and the
Germany army of Alsace are now
moving against the French near Bel
fort Shortly the south wing of the
army will be in complete operation.
But the big decisions we all expec.
from the central army will not come
for few days.
Victories on the Sea.
1t Is also plausible that the Germans
have won victories on the sea. 1t Is
admitted that II they have, England,
following the precedent of the Russo
Japanese war when Japan concealed
for the entire period of the war the
loss of her best battleships on the
very day that hostilities began, can
very easily have concealed the news
from the world. Just to impress the
nations of the far east with Englands
"all mightiness" among the world pow
ers England has called on Japan to
overpower the small German colony
at Kiau Tschau, and the small German
detachments there must prepare to be
overpowered by Asiatics. Does even
the most patriotic of Englishmen be-
lieve that the devastation of the small
colonies of Asia will have a decisive
influence on the war of Europe?

AVIATORS DROP BOMBS
ON AIRSHIP SHEDS

Paris, Aug. 16-F'rench aviators exc
cuted another brilliant coup against
the German airmen today. according to
war office advices. Sallying forth
aloft from Verdun, corps OF biplanes
and monoplanes made a reconnaissance
over the German position 10 miles dis
tant and dropped bombs on temporary
sheds used to house three big zeppellns.
The French AERIAL scouts were fired
upon almost continuously after the
Germans sighted them, but all escaped.
They were unable to tell the exact
damage done to the zeppelins. but BE-
lieved some IL not all were seriously
damaged.

africa, south of the equator, is now
being drawn into the European war,
although without any interest in it, -
the colonel declared.
1--WE would have been drawn in the
same way but for the observance of
the great principle of the Monroe doc
trine that this continent shall not be
treated as a place for territorial ag-
grandizement by the old world
powers
The colonel said he believed the
adoption of the pending arbitration
treaties would be inimical to the in
terests of the United States If they
had any effect at all. He declared that
under the treaties, as If as result of
the war now in progress Denmark or
Holland should part with it's islands in
the West Indies to some old world
power, the United States would be
bound to arbitrate. A committee
would have to be appointed to investi-
gate before action could be taken
The same would hold true if Mexico
at some time should part with Magda-
lena bay he declared.

New York, Aug. 15.-The result of
the weeks fighting in the north has
been the gradual advance of large Ger

almost half way to Brussels; while in

(By Ulrich Ritter, Major, German
General Staff.)

The severe criticism of German
operations is based on the impressions
of people not trained in military mat
tiers. Soldiers are now massed along
the entire line, from Belfort practi
cally to the North sea. and the two
armies are facing each other, not on
German soil. but on Belgian soil and
in France, so that the great battles
will not be fought on German terri
tory.
The losses at Liege as given out by
reliable sources are from 1000 to 5000
although the enemy reported as high
as $4,000. And dsregarding the ire
mendous difficulty there, the Germans
have taken the city of Liege and part
of its Notifications. Taking the re-
mainder Is only a matter of few
days. The German army of the north
today overlooks the Mouse and It's van
guard is occupying a line between
Diest and Namur These vanguards
consist not only of detachments of
cavalry. but also of machine guns.
Gradual progress is being made all
along the line. When q detachment
finds itself outnumbered it evades an
engagement, because 1t is the work of
the vanguard not to fight, but to re-
connoiter. These tactics are seized up
on by the English to exploit as Bel
gian victories.
On the Enemy's Soil.
The German mobilization was pre-
else and everywhere, from north to
south, the German army is meeting
the enemy on the enemy's soil. If

cruiser Rainbow, the sloops- of-war
Shearwater and Algerine and the two
submarines recently purchased in Sc
attic are at anchor at the British
naval station at Esquimalt, near Vic
toria, B. C. At the station there is no
expectation that the German cruiser
Leipzig will venture north.
The cities of Victoria and Van
couver display no anxiety about the
Leipzig, having confidence in the
powerful shore batteries that COM
mand the approach to those cities.
The British freight steamer River
Forth was halted off the Washington
coast last Thursday by the Algerine,
which took from her 100 tons of coal,
leaving the freighter with barely
enough fuel to bring her to Seattle.

she attempted to rush by him, the
