occupied the plateau of Mont Saint
Jean, with the village behind it, and
in front the declivity, which at that
time was steep.
Wellington, anxious but impossible,
was on horseback, and remained
there the whole day in the same at
titude, a little in front of the old mill
of Mont Saint-Jean.
Wellington was frigidIy heroic.
The balls rained down. His aide-de-
camp, Gordon, had just fallen at his
side. Lord Hill, showing him burst
ing she'll, said: my lord, what are
your instructions, and what orders do
you leave us, if you allow yourself to
be kiIIed7" ITO follow my example,"
answered Wellington. To Clinton he
said, IaconicaIIy, "HoId this spot to
the last man." The day was clearly
going badly. Wellington cried to his |
old companions of FaIaVera, Vittoria,
and Salamanca: boy, we must not |
be beat! What would they say of US
in England?"
About four o'clock the English line |
staggered backward. All at once only |
the artillery and the sharpshooters
were seen on the crest of the plateau;
the rest disappeared. The regiments, |
driven by the shells and bullets of the |
French, fell back into the valley, now
crossed by the cow-path of the farm |
of Mont Saint-Jean; a retrograde
movement took place; the battle
front of the English was slipping |
away. Wellington gave ground. BE
ginning retreat!' cried Napoleon.
At the moment when Wellington
drew back, Napoleon started up. He |
saw the plateau of Mont Saint-Jean
suddenly laid bare, and the front of
the English army disappear. 1t raj

peror half rose in his stirrups. The

by a crushing charge. Napoleon,
turning abruptly, sent off courier
at full speed to Paris to announce
that the battle was won.
Napoleon was one of those gen.

found his thunderbolt. He ordered
MiIhaud's cuirassiers to carry the
plateau of Mont Saint-Jean. They
were $500. They formed a line of
half a mile. They were gigantic men
on colossal horses. They were 26
squadrons, and they had behind them
a strong support.
Aide-de-camp Bernard brought
them the emperor's order Ney drew
his sword and placed himself at their
head. The enormous squadrons be-
gan to move. Then was seen fear

SANITARY CONDITIONS BAD PLACED in PRIVATE HOMES

Six Thousand Belgian Refugees Cared
for In London.
London, Sept. England has
come to the relief Of the stricken Bel
gian refugees with such spontaneous
magnanimity that the refugees com
mittee has been forced to decline
many of the flood Of Offers Of shelter.
The authority for this statement is
Lord Gladstone, former governor gem

leader in the committee work.
Six thousand Belgians already have
been placed in private homes, while
5000 are in the London depots await

in Monday and some 5000 others are
scattered In lodging and boarding
houses for whose keep the government

Various Diseases Prevalent Among
Soldiers In the Field.
London, Sept. 3O-The British
army authorities are admittedly
gravely concerned over the unsani-
tary conditions in the field.
Reports are persistent that Asiatic
cholera prevails among the wounded
in Vienna and Budapest and among
the troops on the firing line in Cali
cha and that it has also appeared in
certain parts of Russia.
Typhoid fever and typhus as well
as dysentery are said to be raging
in the ranks of some of the German
armies and many of the French and
British soldiers have been sent back
from the field base suffering with dis
ease. AS a result precautions are be-
ing taken. Enormous quantities of
quicklime have been sent to the front,
which are being used when necessary
to clear up battle lines in the rear
of troops. In addition precaution is
being taken not to procure water for
use of the troops from contaminated
sources.
Only about one in every hundred
cablegrams is a personal message,
the other being official, business or
news.

LARGE FORCE MOVING
ON BELGIAN, CAPITAL
Estimated That 10000 Teu-
tons viii Take Part in the
Attack on City.

Rotterdam, via London, Sept. 3d.
Activities along the Belgian frontier
indicate that the Germans are plan
ming for a siege of Antwerp within a
few days. More than $4,000 men Of
the German naval reserves have been
brought from the North sea and from
the towns Of Kiel and Hamburg to
Brussels and are being held in readi-
ness to serve on an improvised Ger
man fleet should Antwerp and Ostend
be taken.
AS direct result of this move the
Dutch authorities along the Scheldt
have increased their watchfulness,
for during siege of Antwerp England
might like to send achievements
through the Dutch Scheldt, which
would be breach of neutrality, while
on the other hand a German victory
would bring danger of an attempt on
the part of Germany to use the mouth
of the Scheldt as base from which
to attack the British naval forces in
the North sea.
Communication with Antwerp has
been almost suspended. The town can
be reached by automobile, while one
small freight line from Rotterdam
maintains a desultory day service
Only those provided with extraordi-
nary passports and first class creden-
tials are admitted.
Germans and Austrians Expelled.
The fear of German spies has some.
what subsidized. Meantime, however.
all German and Austrian subjects
have been expelled and even those
who are of German and Austrian de-
scent but who have been Belgian sub
jects for many years have been placed
under strict military guards in and
around the triangle formed by Os-
tend, Client and Antwerp.
The moment for the actual siege of
Antwerp, according to the best in.
formed circles here, will depend on
the outcome Of the present battle in
Northern France. Should Germany
win in this battle the attack on Ant.
werp will be pushed at once, while in
case of German defeat the troops
now holding the line of the Echeldt
will be used to resist any Belgian at.
tempt to cut the route of the retreat.

Colonel Shumsky, military critic of
the Petrograd Bourse Gazette, says the
success of the Russians in operating
through the Carpathian mountains is
one of the most notable in military
history.
Russians Proved Successful.
Despite the generally accepted idea
that Russian troops are unable to op-
crate In the mountains, as shown in
the Manchurian campaign, the Rus
slams on this occasion proved that un-
der able leadership they are able to
conquer alike on the plains or in the
mountains"
Referring to the events on the River
Niemen Colonel Shumsky says:
1T Is essential to determine wheth-
er the Germans will be able to COM
pei the Russians to refrain from the
operations in the Carpathians in order
to rush to the Niemen."
He believes the operations on the
Niemen, even in the event Of German
success, will not have decisive sig
nificance and he argues that the. Rus
sian operations in Galicia and the
Carpathians will influence the whole
course of the campaign.
