Warships Suffer from Big
German Guns Off Belgium

Sluis, Holland, Nov. 24.-After Brit
ish aviators had reconnoitred cleverly
hidden German gun positions along the
coast, a combined attack was under
taken yesterday by the Allies infantry
against the German trenches. The at
tackers were aided by a bombardment
from the AnglO-French squadron. con-
sisting Of three cruisers and numerous
sisting Of three small cruisers and nu-
merOus torpedo boats and torpedo boat
destroyers which came close to the
coast. The Germans replied with heavy
artillery fire.
During the afternoon a second squad
ron appeared between Ostend and
Weenduyn, but neither here nor at
Newport was there any success for
either side.
Near Westende two German batter
les were silenced, but the British and
French squadron was forced to retreat,
owing TO the good craftsmanship of the
German artillery, which damaged one
of the destrOyers.
The second squadron then steamed 10
Zeebrugge, probably with the intention
Of destroying German submarine boats.
Before sunset the electric works were
fercely burning and also the Palace
Hotel and other buildings. The church
steeple at Height was damaged, and il
is reported the sluices at Zeebrugge
were destroyed.
The German firing suddenly stopped
end the German submarines left the
port. After some manpuyring the Brit
ish feet disappeared in the fog. Part Of
Zeebrugge was burning and the popu-
latOn had fled in all directions.

"HEAVY FIRING" AGAIN
Shell Test at Sandy Hook
Cause Of Sea Battle Inquiries.

Bay Ridge, Fort Hamilton and Bath
Beach residents had a deep mystery on
their hands for few hours last night,
and the decision reached by the ma
jority was that the entire German,
japanese, Turkish, French ard English
fleets were engaging in the greatest
naval battle of the world couple Of
miles out at sea. The sound of great
guns, technically known as "heavy
firing" were what set the neighbor-
hoods agog.
From 8 o'clock till 10 the cannonad-
ing continued, and those within ear
shot became more and more nervous.
Windows ratified and shook and orna-
ments had to be fastened to the man
telpieces. Police Headquarters men
told several hundred telephone in
quirers that they didn't know anything
about it. The army reservation at Fort
Hamilton and the Marconi station at
Sea Gate were equally ignorant
After it was all over the truth came
out. The government. it appeared, was
testing new shells, known as "tracers,"
at Sandy Hook The shells weigh 1,046
pounds apiece, so it was small wonder
that South Brooklyn was alarmed. Also
they travel 1000 20 10000 yards, and
are Illuminated during the entire
course Of their flight.

LAWYERS PAY HONOR
TO NINE. POINCARE

Bordeaux, via Paris, Nov. 2i.-The
Bar Association has presented to Nine.
Poincar6, wife of the President Of
France, a specially designed medal as
a mark Of admiration for the example
she set by working as a simple nurse
in a hospital organized By the associa-
ton. Nine. Poincare, who early in the
war completed course in nursing
which qualified her for duty in the Red
Cross, volunteered her services as soon
as she arrived at Bordeaux, when the
seat Of government was moved to this
city from Paris. The address accom-
panying the presentation says:
I'VE all remember with sincere emo
tion the kind, unassuming nurse who
took up her humble duties early each
morning and whose perseverance
brought each day to our dear wounded
most attentive care and deeply appre-
ciated encouragement"

GERMANS VIOLATE
CKILPS NEUTRALITY
Make Use of One of Juan
Fernandez Islands as
Naval Base.

Santiago. Nov. 24.-An official state
ment issued by the maritime authorI-
ties here says il has been proved that
German warships have violated the
neutrality of Chilli by staying for sew
eral days at the Juan Fernandez Isl
ands, capturing two neutral ships, selz-
ing coal and provisions and sinking the
French bark Valentine half mile dis
tant from the CHILEAN coast.
VALPARAISO. Nov. 24.-The Gillian
training ship General Baouedano has
been sent by the government to the
Juan Fernandez Islands to make an in
vestigation into charges that the Ger
mans have established a base Of opera
tions on the island of Mas Fuera,
one of this group.
The French Consul here has lodged
q protest with the Gillian government
that the French bark Valentine was
sunk by the Germans within the ter
ritorial waters Of this island.
Investigation is also being made as
TO the statement that the American
steamer Sacramento. formerly the Ger
man steamer Alexandria, from San
Francisco, October 10, for Valparaiso.
transshipped her full cargo of coal and
provisions TO German vessel within
the territorial waters of the island Mas
a Fuera.
There is considerable public feeling
here on the assumption that the Ger
mans have repeatedly violated the neu-
trality of Chill, and the government
hes decided that it will take energetic
measures TO preserve its neutrality.

ARROWS FROM AERO
PIERCE hEN BELOW
Bavarian Surgeons Observa-
ton Shows Third of Missiles
Found Their Targets.

London, Nov. 24.-According to lead
ing Bavarian medical journal, a Ba-
varian surgeon has lately issued a re-
port on the casualties he has observed
from arrows dropped by hostile areo-
planes. he states that on one occa-
sion in France several companies were
resting, paying little attention TO two
aeroplanes circhng overhead. Sudden
ly the tethered horses began TO kick
and squeal and cries Of pain arose
among the men, several of whom were
literally pinned 10 the ground by ar
rows. Nearly a score Of men were
wounded before the source of these
arrows was detected and cover was
taken under wagons. The force with
which arrows strike must be great, for
in one case, an arrow passed through
mans skull. II was estimated that
every third arrow had scored a hit, so
the effectiveness of this weapon is con-
yineingly demonstrated.

RUMANIA ARMING;

Legation Official at Petrograd
Hints at Action-Could
Invade Austria.

Petrograd, Nov. 24.--In view of the
Importance of the Rumanian attitude
in the present crisis every effort IS
being made to induce that Balkan king
Entente. Rumania can put 100000 men
in the field, and as the Austrian troops
are busy elsewhere, a Rumania in
vasion and occupation of Transylvanla
would be easy. The following state
ment was made officially by an author
lied representative of the Rumanian
legation here:
Popular opinion in Rumania is
strongly with the Allies and especially
with Russia. We are making great mil
itary preparations Of most complete
character. In addition may say that the
relations between Rumania and Russia
never have been better than at the
present time. These three facts taken
together ought to have some slgnih-
canoe in the present situation
