NO PROOF OF COMPACT
AGAINST THE KAISER
Belgian Minister'S Explanation OF
Documents Found in the Archives
at Brussels.

NEW YORK, December 22.-E. Have
NTH, Belgian minister to the United
States, who is in this city, last n1sht
issued a statement dealing with Ger
tain documents which are said to have
been found in the Belgian government
archives at Brussels by German offl-
cials. Concerning these papers, which.
us he puts it, the German govern
ment claims prove that Bel
GUM violated her neutrality the
minister said
'The Belgian minister is unable to
see how it can be said that these docu-
ments constitute a proof of an agree
ment between England and Belgium
against Germany, unless one accepts
the idea that Germany had right to
violate Belgium's. neutrality and that
all measures taken as precaution
against violation of neutrality must
therefore have been taken against
Germany.
"The documents contain merely con-
versations between military officers in
regard to possible future co-opera-
tion of their armies in the event of
violation of Belgian territory by Ger
many. They never even resulted in an
agreement between those governments,
military attaches having no authority
to make such agreements.
1.-The events that happened last Au-
gust and the sudden invasion of Bel
gium by Germany show that the Brit
ish government was fully justified in
fearing the violation of Belgian terri
tory by Germany.

city-bound car came upon them from
behind. The two companions were able
to escape, but the car struck the young
est member of the party and carried him
from the west end of the bridge to the
east end and hurled him down a cliff.
When Commonwealth Attorney Mackay,
Sheriff A. Fl. Barber and Jailer Harry
Johnson of Alexandria county examined
the body it was found that his head had
been cut in half. the scalp carried away
to a distance of several feet. and both
legs broken.
The body was carried to an undertak-
ing establishment in Clarendon to await
the coroner's inquest, which will be held
this afternoon at o'clock in the Alexan-
dria county courthouse.
