Miss Pollard's foot is so beautifully

Germans are facing difficult strate-

"The strain is said to be almost
uncomfortable. The French are fortiti-

guns. No German troops have been
able to retire from the fighting line
for rest.
"The army chaplains accompany

Germans May Have Penetrated De-

Off Troops TO Defend Right Wing.

London, Oct, 7-Bombardment of
the city of Antwerp is imminent and
citizens have been warned to flee in
an official communication according
to dispatch to the Exchange Teie-
graph Company. The dispatch says:
"The military governor has inform
ed the burgomaster that lombard
ment OF Antwerp is imminent and
that the people who wish to flee from
the town are requested to leave.
"The bombardment will have no in
fuence on the towns resistance.
which will be pushed to the extreme
limit"
The Exchange Telegraph Company
adds that the foregoing message has
been passed by the British censor for
publication.
This announcement indicates that
the Germans have penetrated the de-
fenses of Antwerp. 1t also was s;tiG
that the appearance of German troop
near Lille indicated that Germany
had been forced to draw off forces
from Antwerp to relieve the Ger
man right wing in France, which
was hard pressed by the allies.
1t is announced here that the
Great Eastern Railway Company's
steamship service between Tilbury

Paris. Oct, THE German at
tempt to outhank the allies on the
left continues unchecked.
Try as they will, the French and
British columns have been unable to
check the German offensive in the
northwest.
Fighting desperately they have
been compelled to give way further IN
tbe neiphborhood of Douai and have
fallen back to the neighborhood OF
Lens.
Paris, Oct. THE fighting IN
the north continues without change
This was the only information Oh:
tainable at military headquarters TINS
morning.
No details had bee.f received Of
+ha movements of tie new German
force reported in the vicinity OF Lii
lie.
1t is everywhere now accepted that
this force plans a raid at the Brit
isb lines of communication through
the western sea coast towns.
The allies have massed thousands
of troops to check it, but Of necessl-
ty little information along this par
ticular line is obtainable.
The reports that the presence OF
this particular force had been fol-
lowed by a slackening of the attack
on Antwerp are characterized here
as absurd.
These forces are first line troops,
part of them are said to be Austrl-'
ans. ard they entered the fell o;
action, according to the reports OF
the aerial scouts, by rail from the
direction of Cologne.
1t is possible they have been draft
ed from the east or that Tier may
come from Lorraine, where opera
| tions are at a standstill because OF
! weather conditions.
Information available here says
the bombardment Of the Antwerp
Notifications is increasing: in vio-'
lence. The German guns are being
manned by naval reserves. In fact
for the last FIVE weeks there have;
been no first line troops in Bel,
gium. All operations there are be-
ing conducted. by the landsturm and
! landwehr.
} The battle line on the northwest is
constantly extending and. in conser
ouence it has been impossible for:
/ the allies to regain the territory
heretofore sacrificed to the Germans
[ for strategic reasons.
F, But it is understood here that a
new movement against the extreme
right Of the German center is now
progressing rapidly and will, when
completed, materially change the
entire situation and give the allies
a distinct advantage.
