ANTWERP PRIZE OF GERMANS
Belgian City Captured After a Siege
That Lasted Only Eleven
Days.

Paris, Oct. 1.-THE forts surround
ing Antwerp and the city are now in
complete possession of the Germans
but the greater part of the Belgian
army has escaped.
It took the Germans just II days to
capture one of the strongest fortresses
In the world.
An official admission that the Brit
ish participated In the defense of Ant
werp Is contained in the admiralty an
nouncement that three naval brigades
with heavy guns had been sent there
during the last week Of tine German
attack.
The announcement adds that in the
retreat from Antwerp two of the Brit
fish brigades reached Ostend safely.
The other. however, was cut of TO the
north Of Lokeren Ga town OF East
Flanders, ~ miles northeast Of GhenD
and 1000 Of the men were interned In
Holland.
The retreat OF the Belgian army was
accomplished successfully.
The losses OF the British naval bri-
gades probably will be less than three
hundred out of total Of 5000 men.
The fall OF Antwerp is evidence that
even the most powerful forts are no
match for the colossal howitzers which
the invaders have successfully en-
ployed against every fortified place
that stood In their way. These huge
guns open gaps through which the be-
siegers find an entrance for their field
artillery and infantry
The death roll resulting from the at.
tack on and defense Of Antwerp has
not been compiled. and probably the
full details never will be known; but
all accounts describe Il as terribly
heavy. The Germans, although their
big guns cleared a path for them, had
to sacrifice many lives in crossing the
rivers and canals and in driving out
the defenders, who held the intrench-
ments to the last

Crowds OF refugees arrived in Lon

everything that could be of use to the

German Forces Are Said to Be
Close to Warsaw.

London, Oct. 14.-The government

In dispatch from the governor gen
eral Of South Africa. The revolving

northwest Of the Cape provinces, sup
posedly close to German Southwest
Africa. Il is understood that the mu-
tineers are mostly Beers. AS a result
of the revolt Of the troops serving un-
der the English flag martial law has

tai OF Russian Poland Is threatened

moment, according to an official dis
patch TO the American government

 One of the children under the care of the organization is lad of IA, a son of widow in destitute circum- stances. who has suffered for want of nourishing food to such an extent that he is not larger than the average boy of years of age. Wan and ema- ciated, the youngster was becoming weaker when the charities discovered the case and called in physicians. The medical men decided that the boys condition was due to lack of nourishing food The accuracy of the diagnosis was demonstrated by the gain in weight of the boy since he has been provided with proper pourish- ment.
 Miss HOuston's report shows that there has been little decrease in the relief work during July, twenty-four new cases being taken up during the month. The average is thirty There were thirty-one cases under care of the Charities at the beginning of the month, making a total of fifty-fiye de- manding and securing attention.
