LONDON. Aug. 24-Q2;O6 p. m.)-In a
dispatch from Rotterdam. the correspond
ent OF the Daily Telegraph says that at
ter many days of quiet. sounds OF the
vigorous bombardment of Liege reached
the frontier near Maestricht on Sunday.
They were heard for hours and indicated
that the Germans are making a tremen-
dous effort to clear this long standing
danger from their line of supply and that
70 this end they had brought their heavi-
est howitzers into action.
Fugitives report. the correspondent con-
tinues, that the Liege forts have caused
great inconvenience to the Germans by
destroying their pontoon bridges over the
Meuse.
The Daily Mail publishes a dispatch
from Antwerp saying that Belgian who
succeeded In getting 10 Liege and back
reports that the Germans have built
eight pontoon bridges across the Meuse

s Preliminary
to Take Place Today

SCHUYLER, Neb.. aug. z4-(special
Telegram)-Frank Held, accused of the
murder of Miss Louise Mick. will be
brought here for his preliminary examina-
tion. which is set for tomorrow morning
at 10 o'clock In county court HELD was
taken from the Boone county Jail by Col
fax county officers last night and brought
here during the night. There is assurance
that no attempt at violence will be made.
Since the brutal murder Of the young
girl County Attorney w. I. Allen has
strengthened its case against the man.
1t is likely no effort will be made on
Held's behalf unless 1t is done by his
wife, who is here and has. It is said, COM
pleted arrangements for an attorney
Held has not confessed, though the state
has a number Of damaging statements
from him which will be used against him.
He has not succeeded in proving his
whereabouts on the night of the crime
and time has resulted in strengthening
the states evidence that he was with the
young girl.
1t is possible that the preliminary will
be waived and the case thus be sent 10
the district court.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Aside from
informal verbal exchanges between Wis
count Chinda and Secretary Bryan in
Washington and Ambassador Guthrie and
the foreign office in Toxic. there is moth
ing of record so tar to commit the Japa-
nese to the limited field OF noss,lities laid
down in the British note of last week.
The impression prevails here among
diplomats. however, that the statement
of Viscount Chinda, taken In connection
with the speech in the Japanese diet last
week of Count Okuma, the Japanese pre-
mier, is quite sufficient to bind the Japa-
nese government TO a strict performance
of its obligations in regard to the return
of Kiao Chow to China and OF the lin
itation of the field of hostilities definitely
set out in the British statement
No mention was made by Ambassador
Chinda in todey's conference of the
status Of the railroads in Shantung prov
ince. directly or Indirectly controlled by
the Germans.
1t was said at the Japanese embassy
here that in all probability the Japanese
army would content itself with the seiz-
ure of the railroad running inland to
Tsi Nan, about 800 miles in length, be-
cause this was German in every respect.
II was not expected that any attempt
would be made to take possession of the
extensive system of railways lying be-
tween Tien Tsin and Marking because
although these were financed by Germans
they were nominally Chinese railroads.
The declaration of war by Japan was
the chief development of the day here,
though dispatches indicating the prepa-
rations in Italy for mobilization caused
some discussion.

OSTEND, Aug. 24.-(Special Cablegram
TO the New York World and Omaha Bee0
--(Delayed in Transmissiop.)- 1.-THE posi-
, tions of the Germans in Belgium today
are as follows:
They are in peaceful occupation of
Brussels, and have begun to push south
west, unchecked. towards Coutres and
the French frontier. Their advance pa
trolls and cavalry are well on their way.
Friday morning the cavalry entered
Flanders. almost ten miles from Brus-
sells, but up to Saturday midday no Ger
man troops. to my certain knowledge,
had entered Client. The Germans have
passed to the south OF that city, and few
If any are likely to enter the town. No
German troops are at either Bruges or
Ostend.
Allies Ready to Move.
I have the evidence OF French aviator
that the movement of the allies to COM
bine and intercept the German forces has
already begun. 1t will, however, be some
days before the issue is definitely forced.
Probably the Germans, of whom, ac-
cording to moderate estimates 100000
have passed through and around Brus-
sells. will continue their march, even II
communication is cut here in the north,
and will try to break through to join the
second army, which they are confident
will succeed in entering France by way
OF Luxemburg, and the third, which it
is hoped may force gap at Belfort.
From different sources l have the in
formation that many of the regiments in
Brussels are from the eastern side CT the
empire, and probably an interchange OF
troops has been resorted to by Germany
to avoid the possibility of disaffection by
reason of local friendships.
OF my own knowledge I may say the
positions of the English Belgian and
French forces are entirely satisfactory
in regard to the presen. German rush.

agreement of Austria to dismantle
its cruiser, the Kaiserin Elizabeth,
