Refugees In London.

LONDON. Oct. IL. $50 p. M
Seven thousand refugees from the war
zone. most of them Belgians, arrived
at Folkestone today on board four
steamers. Among them were 25
wounded Belgian soldiers, but what
attracted the most attention was the
apparent wealth of many OF the refu-
gees.
Hundreds were we'll dressed and
plentifully supplied with money. in
dicating that they had carefully made
their plans OF departure. Londoners.
heretofore accustomed TO caring for
the penniless, are now seeing the no
tells crowded with well to do persons
who seem amply able to take care OF
themselves.
A still larger number of Belgians
are expected to reach Folkestone to-
morrow. All the hotels and boarding
houses are overcrowded. Local com
mittees are caring for the poorer fam
lilies in the churches and school houses
and are sending them to London by
special trains as fast as possible for
distribution among the bones through
out England.

The allies make no claim TO victory
IN the afternoon statement. which
opens with the remark that these
cavalry operations continue as far
north and west as Hazebrouck. a
point hardly more than a good days
walk from Calais.
More News Leaked Out.
When the allies claimed yesterday
that they had driven the Germans
from -Aire. London learned for the
nrst time that the Germans had made
substantial progress west from Arm
entieres. which they reached last
week Presumably the allies still
hold the ground they claim to have
regained. but the Germans are throw
ing more men westward and are put
ting up a hard fight. The communi-
cation does not make plain which side
holds the town nearest the coast
Nowhere along the battle line do
the allies say they have made any
progress except in the center. on the
right bank of the Aisne below Sois-
between Arras and the Disc. and on
the right. in Vosges. IL is said. the
German attacks have been repulsed.
A paragraph near the end Of the
official communication saying IL Is
understood that the Germans are oc-
cupying only the suburbs OF Ant
werp. while the twenty-four forts
along the Scheldt (Escaut) still are
holding out. has been received in
London with considerable surprise
and skepticism. IN view Of the an
nouncement of the British war office
that the city was occupied by the
Germans and the unanimous accounts
from the correspondents to the same
effect. together with the Berlin Off
cial statement that the invaders took
virtually complete possession OF the
city.
England Stirred.
Probably stirred by the bomb-drop-
ping exploits OF the German aircraft
over Paris. London seems to be pre-
pared for such visitors. and Official no
tice has been served on persons living
near the mouth fthe Thames that
they should be ready to seek their eel
lars at the first sound of firing, as
there will be no time to spread the
news In any more formal way.
Recruiting throughout Great Britain,
particularly in London. has been boom
ing. il is said. since the fall OF Ant
werp, the talk of the Germans ad-
vancing from there to Ostend having
seemingly brought the war closer
home in the minds of the people. The
whereabouts fthe Belgian queen is
still matter of conjecture, and the
same yagueness surrounds the kings
reported wounds.
