TOddIe Along in Silence

Rotterdam, Oct. g. Every
Belgian village within a radius
Of many miles of Antwerp was
burning today but the Antwerp
garrison continued to resist.
That the city was still holding
out as late as noon today was
known positively.
Though shells were falling in
its streets, it was said many Of
them were "over shots" which
failed to explode.
Dutch resources were hope
lessly overtaxed. Camps were
being established for the refu-
gees and the government and
private charity were doing all in
their power to relieve the general
distress but it was said thous-
ands must starve to death unless
outside aid was received.
Lierre and Contich were. prac-
tically wiped out wednesday,
German shells having set them
on fire.
The forts Of Waelhem and
IIWavre were completely blown to
pieces by the kaiser's huge siege
guns and their garrisons per-
ished in them.
The villages of Hove, Horszel
and Vieux Dieu suffered fright
fully. They were deserted by
their inhabitants and many Of
their houses had been levelled.
Along the roads the most pa
thetic scenes were enacted
among the refugees fleeing to
Holland. Families were separ
ated, mothers were hunting
frantically for their children and
little babies were seen toddling
along alone.
Hunger was everywhere.

Apparently the Belgians are adopting
the same tactics at Antwerp that they
followed at Liege. That is to say, their
field force is being handled as unit
distinct from the strategic demands of

The field army's principal business
at Antwerp, as it was at Liege, is to
escape capture, not to defend city
