London, Aug so-Enorrnous loss of life

dictionary force on the Continent. This
| information was received here today in A
dispatch from Amiens, France. to the
Times. The Times issued a special war
extra at S o'clock TO print the dispatch
In the prefacs OF his telegram the cor
respondent tells of the pressure he had to
bring upon the censor to get his infOr-
nation past the blockade. From last We'd

sage was written. the correspondent had
been making his way through northeast
ern France. talking with members of the
British forces to get authentic details.
The Times dispatch follows:
There has been unceasing action since
the reat battle in western Belgium. which
might well be called the battle of Mons
1t seems to be highly important that the
British nation should know the facts.
There are bitter truths which have TO be
learned so they might as well be acquaint-
ed with them now.

there was not one in which it was said
that any man showed the white feather.
All fought bravely. Those who fell did
so with their faces to the enemy. Every
Englishman did his duty and did 1t well.
But never has duty been done among
surroundings more tragic. Smashing its
way forward went that mighty German
army. The swiftness with which ii moved
was incredible in view 81 the vast num-
Der of men in its ranks. Infantry. ar
tiIlery and cavalry all pushed forward
like a phantom host, so rapidly did it
make its way. But ii could not be
reckoned as a phantom host when 1t

The crashing charges of its men were
deadly. The murderous fire Of artillery,
ranging from giant Krupps down TO
duick-frers on automobile trucks was
fatal

Throughout the southern counties of

the big majority OF their 5000 votes,
they took advantage of that provision
OF the state election law which per-
mits each party to have watchers on
duty while the ballots are being
counted. They also had their repre-
scntatives present when the votes
were canvassed by the county election
boards. The result was that the re
turns from the southern counties
came in more quickly than at any
time since statehood.
At no time did the Socialists relax
their vigilance. They were out to
win II possible. Their representatives
did not lose minute while the re-
turns were being canvassed In the va
rious county seats, and frequently
these representatives were men whose
ability TO take care of themselves in
rough and tumble was well known
to the members Of the election boards.
The work Of canvassing was accom-
plished as quickly as possible.
