which are being used to dive the
Germans out of their strongly forti-
fed positions.
Both sides appear confident. The
! Germans bringing up rcinforcements
to meet the attempts to outflank
them in what appears to be almost im-
pregnable positions and are fighting
sternly. The allies. on the other
hand, place their hopes in the arrival
of reinforcements on their left and
the possibility of finding a weak spot
in the German front.
Arrival of Indian Troops.
The Indian troops should now be
with the British army, the official bu-
reau having today permitted the pub
lication of the fact that they landed
In Fran e last Friday. or course, it
it not known where the Indian troops
are going, but 1t is believed the left
wing will be stiffened by them. Some
OF the territorials also have reached
Field Marshal French. These include
the London Scottish, one of the best
of England's volunteer regiments, re-
cruited from Scotchmen in London.
They have reached high state of eff
ficiency and in their ranks are some
of the best marksmen in the empire
Among them are number of men who
conn Leted with the United States for
tbs Palma trophy a few years ago.
A call has been issued for British
railway men to go to France and as
sist in working the railroads there.
Belgium Again Attacked.
With the German attack on the
outer Notifications on Tntwerp, again
Belgium has. become the scene of SER
ions operatins. The invaders, 30 far,
have confined their attack to the
ferts protecting the river crossings
between Malines and Antwerp. A
German report says two forts have
;Seen silenced, bT the Belgfens deny
this. They declare the forts stopped
firing las ruse and that when the
German field artillery approached TO
take them they reopened fire -decimi-
mating the Germans. There is no In
dication of the strength Of the Ger.
mans at that point. but It'll is presumed
they heye launched no mean force

temporary capital.
