THE Germans have gained ground

LONDON. Aug. 20.--An aerogram
received here from Berlin gives the
substance of an address by the
Kaiser TO the First Regiment OF
Foot Guards in which he said they
had been assembled to pray that
German arms might be blessed so
that they should be able to keep
flying the flag of the Fatherland in
spite Of the envy OF It's enemies. even
IL this entailed the sacrificing of the
last drop Of German blood.
The Kaiser declared that the sword
which he had allowed to remain In
its sheath decade after decade must
decide. and it would not be sheathed
again without victory and honor. The
war, tho Emperor said, found the
nation trusting in Almighty God and
remembering the glorious days OF
old.

FRANCE TELLS POWERS

PARIS. August 81.
The French Government calls the at
tention OF the Powers signatories of
the Hague conventions to the following
acts Of the German military authorities
which constitute violation OF the con-
vention signed on october IS. 1907. by
the German Imperial Government:
by the Commander in Chief of the
army Of the East: German troops nm
ished OF an important number Of
wounded by shots fired point blank in
the face. as was evident by the dimen-
sions Of the wounds. Other wounded
were Intentionally trampled on and
kicked by German soldiers.
THE Tenth Bavarian Infantry sys-
tematically burned villages which they
traversed in the region of Barras, Har-
bone, Montrigny, Monreux and Parax.
while during the actions in question no
artillery fire from either side could
have produced fires. In the same region
the Germans forced the inhabitants TO
march in front OF their advance guard.
German troops also forced women and
children to go before them to empty
villages. Upon the battlcfields they
massacred, burned and finished off
wounded. They killed prisoners at Billy
on the 10th. as reported TO the Govern
ment on the 18th.

OF universal consequence. reproves and
