are heading for the gap between Mons

1T IL certain that many OF the troops
which presented the imposing spectacle
at Brussels were perfectly fresh. They
are an important part OF that vast army
which Germany for fifteen days has ef-
fectively screened behind her desperately
fighting forces This army Is destined

come the Belgian defence the German
army Will now take the line OF least re-
ststance and push the invasion OF France.
There Is no doubt that great battle
Is raging. on It's outcome depends every
thing. II the Germans gain the advantage
the allies will have to form along their
second line we'll inside the French

THE entrance OF the Germans into
Brussels is a sad experience for the
Belgians II Is cruelty felt by all. The
Government OF the French Republic
a'firms that the sufferings Of the Bel
gians are shared by France. To-day
there il a mass OF German soldiers on
Belgian soil and Belgian blood is being
spilled In the effort TO resist their march.
The causes Of the two countries are
linked together and cannot be separated.
France is resolved to free this territory
from the invaders and will not consider
It's work entirely accomplished 30 long
as one German soldier remains in Bel
GUM. II was not possible for us be-
cause OF strateglcal reasons to partici-
pate sooner with the Belgian army In
the defence Of It's country. But the
obligations that we have undertaken
make all the more solemn the necessity
for our cooperation with her, and we
shall prosecute them with extreme
energy The retreat OF the Belgian
army TO tie forts OF Antwerp was fore
seen and casts no reflection on the valor
OF the Belgian army nor on It's strength.
The time will come when the Belgian
army will lind itself fighting at the side
OF the French army and the two will be
linked together in bonds OF fraternity

ANTWERP. Aug. 22.-The approach of
the Germans TO Louvain was made late

In the neighborhood OF these flames the
German artillery directed Its fire. while
at the same time the aeropianes illu.
minated the Belgian ranks by turning
their searchlights on the ground.
Now that the army IL reassembling
under the guns of the Antwerp forts II
will get some sorely needed rest. The
fatigues the Belgians have withstood
are remarkable feature OF this cam
paign. Their cavalry has been thirty
hours in the saddle. The men have
had only three hours sleep day and
have never taken their boots of, until
boot and foot have become u sort OF
clogged mass. A common prelude TO a
tight has been a forced march. Their
sobriety. stamina and doggedness so far
have carried them through, hut the
strain Is beginning TO tell. Probably a
couple OF days rest IL all that Is needed.
Piiiaging started on the field OF battle
when predatory camp followers made
their appearance. Most German officers
carry large sums of money. A sum
equivalent to 10000 francs $4,000 was
found on the body OF one, News OF this

German Consul at San Francisco Ex- horts Fellow Countrymen to Be

San Francisco, Nov. 23.-Raron F.. H. Won Schack, imperial German con- sul, urged Germans throughout Amer ica to boycott goods manufactured by nations hostile to their country, in an address last night at a benefit for German wounded soldiers, widows and orphans.
 The allies,'' he said, always en- vious of Germanys commercial pros perity, have utilized the present oc- casion to islander German industry. With cold blooded contempt of all commercial treaties and of their own laws, they are suppressing German commercial houses within their own countries and are now annulling or plainly stealing German and Austrian patents of inventions.
 Here in the United States are twelve million Germans or German Americans. Placing the buying ca- pacity of these at only $150 per an- mum, the yearly purchasing power is s1,SOO, 100000.
 Let me suggest better system of buying. You should buy articles of German or Austrian origin if you cannot obtain American made wares. Before buying ask where the article was made. Be loyal to America and be loyal to your old fatherland"
