London, Oct. 19.-Dy reaching their
teptacles out to the seaboard the al
lied forces have established close con-
tact with the British navy, which is
now on the left line, and seems-from
the London yiew-for the moment to
block effectually further German eff
forL to turn this wing.
That the Germans may have grasp
ed this is perhaps indicated in the
otherwise unexplained appearance of
four torpedo boat destroyers Saturday
off the Dutch coast southward bound.
II is suggested that the object was
Tor the destroyers to convoy submar
rines which would dispute the COM
mand Of the sea on the Belgian littor-
al sos 81
Should the German navy undertake
this venture, It would be confronted
with much the same proposition as
has met the British fleet since the
commencement Of the war, and Il
would assume the same risks Of col
Iiding with mines heretofore faced by
the British alone, because the Britisa
field stretches right along the Belgian
coast from Ostend southwark.
#. as the allies claim, their LETT can
not now be turned, the only alteraa
tive left the Germans is to hack away
through the trio Of armies confronting
them, and General Won Kluck or Gen
eraI Won Anime, or whoever is Il
command Of the German right, seems
in no way foath to make the atrempt
That they have made forward NOV
