NEW YORK, Oct 1.-THE MARIA
tive of Captain Lieutenant Otto
Weddlgen, commander of the Ger
man submarine U-9, which destroyed
the British cruisers AbouRir, Greasy
and Hogue in the North Sea on
September %. with a loss of officers
and men totaling 1,754, was published
in the World yesterday. The In
violable rule of the German navy
that no officer shall talk about his
exploits has been broken, it Is said,
in this case, and Lieutenant Weddi-
gems account has been officially an
nounced and verified by German
navy headquarters. The dispatch Is
dated Berlin, September 80. delayed
by the British censor until October
10. Lieutenant Weddigens story is.
in part as follows:
II am thlrty-two years old and
have been In the navy for years. For

WAR CORRESPONDENTS LOT
IN FRANCE NOT A HAPPY ONE

"Oh, I know that" he said. Cap
tain. will you escort the gentlemen
out?',
The captain did escort us out-also
in.
Through a gate in a stone wall we
were conducted by our smiling cap
tain. On the right was a door lead
ing into the colonel's quarters-the
rooms of a farmhouse. "A second door
was open and was labeled in chalk,
Prison" We were ushered into
this. German prisoners, French de-
serters, spies, suspects and pillagers
stood or lay about on the hay which
covered the floor
We were put on parole not to try
to get away. They took our word for
it that we would not run away, but
to make sure they kept O. sentry at
the gate with instructions to shoot
if we showed any inclination to get
absentminded. They were very, very
nice about it, insisting all the time
that we were positively not consid-
cred prisoners-as prisoners were en-
titled to soldiers rations and we were
not.
On the morning of the second day
we were given our car back and taken
to Paris, an armed gendarme along
with us. Arriving late in the eve
ming we had dinner in the corridor of
the Cherche-Midi military prison.
Almost we had the experience of
sleeping where Captain Alfred Drey-
fus was shut up, but mysterious
forces suddenly shifted us between
midnight and 1 a. m. to the Invalides,
where in the shadow of Napoleon's
tomb we slept In officers beds. Then
we were let go.
Yes, the war corresponding game
is gone-that is, the game as 1t used
to be. No more will the correspond

battles, and also, perhaps. no more

Negress Htld on Charge
of Robbing Railway Man

Emma Johnson, a negress. of 1888
Academy street, is a prisoner in the
First precinct police station charged
with larceny But for the quickness
of Detective Weber, who arrested
her, the charge might have been one
of stabbing.
Weber was walking in Arlington
street early today when he heard a
call for police coming from the direc-
tion of the woman's house. He has
tened to the scene and found Domi-
nick Olvianni, of Railway, who
claimed that the woman had stolen
$40 from his pocket. sWhen the de-
tective started to place the negress
under arrest she is alleged to have
made q lunge for him with knife.
She will be tried in the First Crimi-
nal Court tomorrow before Judge

says that twenty Italian transport
ships. heavily escorted by an Italian
naval fleet, sailed today to bring
back the Italian troops now in Trip
oil and Cyrenaica. Their place will
be taken by a volunteer corps just

Although the return of troops from

that their term of enlistment has ex-

LONDON, Oct. 12.-The Daily
Chronicles Antwerp correspondent
gives a picture Of the panic in the
Belgian town and the fight of the
populace to safety.
Before the bombardment had been
long In operation" the correspond
ent says, "Antwerp's civil population
fell into panic. Immense crowds
gathered along the quayside and at
the railroad stations In their efforts
to make an exit from the city. Early
on Thursday morning more than
40, 900 had assembled on the long
quay in the hope of boarding fifteen
tugboats bound for Flushing, Rotter-
dam and other Dutch ports.
"These were not vessels of any con-
siderable carrying capacity, and, as
no one had made arrangements for a
systematic embarkation, a wild strug-
gle followed among the frantic peo-
pie. The boats had no regular gang
ways, and the only means of board

LONDON, Oct. 12.-"The fall Of
Antwerp might be accurately dated
midnight, Thursday, though the
BurNpmaster did not go out to sur
render the city until 8 o'clock the
next morning, and the Germans did
not enter until noon" says a Morn
ing Post correspondent in Belgium
"By midnight Thursday it was clear
that further resistance to the attack
ing German army was vain, and the
field forces and garrison forces on
our side began to be withdrawn to
the west side of the river Scheldt.
Throughout the night of Thurs
day the citizens who remained in the
city had every prompting to terror
Smoke from burning oil tanks en-
yeloped the city in dark pail, to
which the flames of burning houses
gave lining of lurid yellow.
Through this pail came the
shrieking of the shells of
2S-centimetre guns, crashing like
thunderbolts as they sent buildings
actually pouring into the streets. Be
meath the pail of smoke along the
shattered city went hurrying the
ranks of the retiring army.
Many of the people, of Antwerp
had resolved to withstand the bonn
bardment, and were content to stay
burrowing among the ruins so long
as the Germans could be kept out.
To them the retreat OF the defending
army was the last blow OF fate.
They abandoned the cellars and re-
treats and set out in flight. 1t was
the last and most pitiful exodus, for
these were the elect of the citizens.
AS they passed to the Dutch from
tier or toward the quays some met
their death from bombardment."

esPARIS, Oct. 12.-The progress of
TIE campaign in the north OF France
and the fall of Antwerp were forgot
txn for a moment today by the peo-
t4e of Paris, who spent their time
discussing the throwing of bombs on
Rhe capital from German aeroplanes
IA a result of which three persons
were killed yesterday and fourteen
#9unded At the same time officials
adopted measures looking to the pre-
s3ention of similar acts in the future.
* The first thing done was the APP
Dointment of General Hirschauer to
Take charge of the aerial defense of

aeronautic expert. He organized
4ast year the aerial branch of the
Army service. Later e number of

benys Cochin to consider various
means of rendering the city more
secure from aeroplane attacks.
Aerial sauadrons Stationed.
! The creation OF aerial squadrons
Ntationed at cardinal points to be
aiways ready to dash after the air
craft of the enemy as soon as they
should be signalled approaching the
rfty; the arming of fast monoplanes
with quick-flring guns, and the tele-
apl1oning of warnings by residents of
The capital to the French Aero Club.

4aussed. Finally, M. Cochin sent a

OF the two big ball clubs whose
struggle for final supremacy in the
world series begins today at Phila-
delphia, the Boston Braves is much
the most representative of all parts
OF the country in it's personnel, the
Philadelphia Athletic being mostly
an eastern bunch. The South figures
largely in the membership of the
Braves, including the famous man
ager, George Stallings, of Georgia.
-Four of the Braves claim New York
as their native State. Massachu-
sets, Texas, California, Pennsyl-
Eania and Ohio each contributed
two native sons to the Brave aggre-
cation. The others, in the ratio Of
one per each, hail from Rhode Is
land, New Hampshire, Washington,
Nebraska, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Maryland, Tennessee and

and was born in Georgia, the home
OF the illustrious Ty Cobb.

logic as the Telegram, as her system
of government seems to have no
need for either law or policemen to
enforce it. At the conclusion of her
letter she observes:
THE popular understanding is
greatly at fault. Law is the will OF
the governors, whether they be
kings or a multitude of monopolists.
They are built to compel subsection,
to entrust one man with power over
another, to enable him to decide
what that other may or may not do,
is to magnify the one and belittle
the other. 1t is at the very start
violation of justice, the equal bal
ance is the symbol Of Justice. What
am trying to make clear is that all
criminalty in this world has its
source in law, in the absence of
which which there would be neither
offences against persons or property,
all would have equal rights in the
light of logic and facts, as to the
recent attack on a man in the name
of law without the right of self
protection of the citizens A"
There seems to be some sort of
grammatical kink at the close of the
quotation, but the rest of il is clear
enough. If it isn't anarchy we have
been misinformed as to the defini-
tion of that word, and We are
'leary" of anarchists, especially
lady anarchists.

Miss Frances Young, of St. Pet
ersburg, has come to Lakeland to
open a kindergarten and class in
instrumental music. Lakeland is
indeed fortunate in securing this
young lady as she was sought for
by several towns in Florida. Miss
Young will run a strictly kindergar-
ten and she will use the celebrated
Montesson system. This system has
been passed upon by the leading
educators of the world as the best
system in vogue and it Is rapidly
being used in kindergartens of our
country. Miss Young is also emf
nently fitted in his musical abilities,
being graduate of Southern Col
lege in music. The Guild hall will
be used for her school and careful
supervision over the children will
be given. Special care will be taken
of the little tots to and fro from
school. Miss Young's school will
open Monday, Oct. IL, in the Guild
hall. All persons who desire to see
her will find her at Mrs. Terry's, or
may call her on phone 1873 Blue.
