BRITISH CHAFE WITH
GERMAN HIGH IN NAVY
Mistrust Prince Louis of Batten-
berg as First Sea Lord of
Admiralty.

LONDON. Oct 26-The anti-German
agitation throughout England has now
spread so that attacks are being made
on Prince Louis of Battenberg, first sea
lord of the admiralty. He has been
subjected to a number of veiled attacks.
the latest being carried in the columns
of the Globe this afternoon. 1t COM
ments on the propriety of a natural
lied German occupying so important a
position in the navy at such time. and
also on the various rumors. and then
says:
The prince enjoys the full conf
dence of the King and of the govern
ment, as we'll as of his colleague in the
admiralty. We know his eagerness to
defeat the German fleet is as great as
that OF any born Briton. But in this
struggle public opinion is OF vital i'm
portanCe.
Every well-informed person knows
that the character of Prince Louis Is
beyond challenge, but it is imperativ
that the man in the street be equally
satisfied. At present he is not. It is
the plain but disagreeable duty of the
Globe to say So"
The Globe demands that an authori-
tative statement be issued on the sub
ject. Despite the fact that the King
received him in special audience last
week. the rumor persists that the
Prince was imprisoned on suspicion of
being spy.

Ambassador Denies That
100000 Are Captured

PARIS. Oct 26-Thc French ambas-
sador at Madrid has issued a denial of
tn" accuracy Of the figures given by
Spanish papers as to the number of
French prisoners in Germany.
This incorrect Information. which
came from Germany, was that there
were 10000 French prisoners in Ger
many and only 1000 German prisoners
in France a San Sebastian paper went
SO far as to state that the Germans
held 10000 French prisoners. including
$1,000 captured al Maubcuge. although
the garrison at that place numbered
1000 and some Of these escaped
The German official figures of the
week before gave the number Of French
prisoners as $500 while the German
minister of war declared on October II
that the French prisoners numbered
115 600.
The censor limited the Temps in an
announcement III regard to the number
OF German prisoners in France to a
statement that -- German soldiers
plus --- German civilians were in
termed in France.

100000 PRISONERS
TAKEN BY GERMANS
Official Count on October q
Shows Twenty-Five Generals
Among the Number.

BERLIN. Oct. o6.-The total number
of prisoners of war confined in camps
in Germany on October q was an
nounced as 5,4O1 officers and 2el, ,4GS men,
including six French, thirteen Russian,
and three Belgian generals More pris-
oners are said to be on the way from
the front.
Discussing the developments In the op-
erations around Nieuport, Major Mo-
raht. the military correspondent of the
Tageblatt. says the German objective Is
to remove obstacles to an advance upon
Dunkirk. Calais and Boulogne. The al
hes artillery and the English monitors
are unable to check this advance, but,
adds the writer, undoubtedly special
counter will be taken soon to
paralyze this attack upon the sea.
While the allies" he says, ARE un-
willing to admit German successes, they
evidently are gravely concerned for the
safety Of Calais, showing what they ex-
pect further TO the South and westward.
In Suwalki the Russians are trying
to check the German advance, but they
have been repulsed, while behind them
/ are extended swamps. Here and in
other sections the Russians are losing
an increasing number OF prisoners
Moreover, one circumstance of great
significance for the Russians Is particu-
lariy evident. namely. their heavy
losses Of cannon, machine guns and
small arms. 1t is estimated that the
Germans and AuStrians already have
taken I6po cannons and machine guns
and hundreds Of thousands of rifles. The
renewal of these supplies is not easy

QUEEN SENDS BACK
WAR FUND CHECKS
Firms Making "Patriotism Prof.
table" Rebuked by British
ConSort.
By ED. L. KEEN.

LONDON. (By mail to New York; Oct.
1.-THE returning to a half dozen big
manufacturing concerns their checks for
5000 each, which had been sent to the
Prince of wales war fund, has caused
big stir here.
The concerns which had their dona-
tions rejected include the foremost
British house of silversmiths and
jewelers.: and one of two dry goods
stores of worldwide fame.
The affair has been handled with
finished diplomacy, and great secrecy.
but the main facts have leaked out. 1t
is said that Queen Mary is behind the
move, and the action taken marks her
deep concern In social issues In demo-
cratic sense.
The Prince of wales fund is the ma
tional offering to dependents whom
Tommy Atkins has left behind him. 1t
also aims to give assistance in cases
where unemployment becomes acute
national committee, on which all parties
and denominations are represented. and
headed by former Premier Arthur J.
Balfour, administers the fund at head
quarters and local committees all over
the kingdom attend to the distribution.
OF sthe $15.OOO,oOo already subscribed
about a quarter has been given away.
There are two or three wideawake
aristocrats on the administration COM
mittee with marked democratic tend

firms that sent. the $4,000 checks had
discharged enough employees to make up
more than that amount In wages.
Moreover, 1t was pointed out that
while they were putting up gaudy no.
tees that all their men who Joined the
army would have their places kept for
them, and would suffer no loss of pay,
there was little trick In the reckon
ing that meant clear profit instead of
a. loss.
For example, man in one store was
earning $50 a week. He went into the
army as a volunteer captain and re-
ceived $3.50 All that the store did
was to persuade his associates to do his
work az we'll as their own in the name
of patriotism, while the pay office con-
tributed the difference of $3.50 to make
the pay run the regular scale Of $40.
They thus saved $3.50 a week on each
volunteer and patriotism was profitable.
The scheme did not appeal to Queen
Mary. So she drafted a note Of refusal
to the firms that had sent the checks,
and had her son sign it. The note said
that, in view of the distress that. was
occurring, and was likely to extend in
the silversmiths and other departments
of their business. it was desirable that
cha rity begin at home, and the amounts
indicated on the checks be devoted to
their own employees.

Giving Wrong Age Does
Not Annul Marriage

An opinion to the effect that mere
Misrepresentation as TO ages on the
part Of persons contracting TO marry
is not sufficient grounds on which TO
annul q marriage, providing the female
is not younger than fourteen years old
or the male younger than sixteen years
old. was handed down today by JUS
tice Mccoy, presiding in Equity Court,
No. 2.
The court points out in the opinion
that there are penalties for perjury and
false swearing in connection with the
procurement Of a marriage license, but
that the code does not provide for an
annulmcnt unless either one OF the con-
tracing parties is under the age or con-
sent and docs not have the necessary
consent of parent or guardian.
The opinion was given in connection
with the suit of Mrs. Iucy Young, col
ored, who sought the annulmcnt Of ;he
marriage of her daughter. Agnes Young
Garner. TO Arthur Garner last sum-
mer, the daughter being fourteen years
old.

TOday'S War
Summary

FRANCE-The official after

Germans, who managed to cross
the User in great force, are not

Poland continues with the Rus
slams hotly pressing the defeated

Everything was different last night.
The tone of the quarter was sepulchral.

restaurants and cafes locked and barred

five or six squares from the top of the

Revelers Sought In Vain.
I felt something akin to a shudder
pass through me. The dark-robed girls
moving noiselessly through the shadows
of this once brilliantly lighted street
made me think of ghosts haunting some
gilded palace Of dead and gone ages,
seeking vainly for those who used to
revel there.
At the bottom of the hill I crossed the
way and started back up the street, on
the opposite sidewalk. This was entirely
deserted. save for a cloaked policeman
