Berlin is exerting the strongest in
fuence at Vienna, but as a fighting
force the Austro- Hungarian army has
practically ceased to exist. Ravages OF

Any arrangement Vienna might make

Petrograd, Nov. 3.-The Turkish

statement:

man artillery fire was, as it proved,
but prelude to an infantry attack.
Up TO this moment not a single Bel
gian cannon or rife had replied, and
the Germans, no doubt, concluded that
Fumes and the country in its imme-
date front had been abandoned by the
Allies.
II proved a costly error. The Bel
glans prepared TO deliver counter
stroke with great adroitness and cool
ness. A battery which had reached
Furnes toward the close of the bonn
bardment was sent forward in sections
toward the front, so that its arrival
might escape the enemy's observation.
Meanwhile, in advanced trenches TO the
west of Furnes, the Belgian infantry.
with loaded rifles and well hidden from
prying German eyes, awaited the COM
ing of the foe.
On came the Germans, swarming to
the attack IN dense formation. They
were allowed 10 approach TO within
hiteen hundred yards of the Belgians'
trenches before the Belgian guns de-
livered their message Of death. IL was
a complete surprise for the advancing
enemy The attacking columns went
down before the hail of shrapnel much
as one sees ripe grain fall before a
mowers seythe. The Germans wavered.
then broke and fled wildly for the all
too scanty cover OF the shallow bitches
of the fiat countryside. The Belgian
shells again sought and found them.
ana Death had a busy half hour gar
nering mis- harvest of victims.
II was the end of the German often
slve for the day. The survivors of the
shattered columns which had been
launched against the hidden Belgian
position did not halt until they re-
gained Ramscapelle and the protection
Of the German artillery. The Belgians,
as a result Of the days fighting, reoc-
cupied Ramscapelle. where the Ger
mans had abandoned number of their
wounded.
