Correspondence of Associated Press.]
The Hague, Oct 16.-Not since 1865
has the decoration known as Pour le
Merit" been given a lieutenant in the
German army. For this reason the be-
stowal of this order upon Lieut.. Otto
Won der Line. serving In the Fifth
guard regiment, is of interest. He was
awarded this very high and coveted
distinction because on Aug. "a with
four men he took Fort Malonne at
Namur before it had been subjected TO
artillery fire
How Lieutenant Won der Line ac-
complished this has been described by
him in letter to his parents:
Il was ordered to advance against

us. and / expected that IL we were not

task of attacking the fort, but / was
picked out to do it.
Arrived near the fort 1 took four
OF my men and approached in goose
march. picking our way carefully thru
the field of mines. The drawbridge
was mp, and the broad moat filled with
water made it impossible for us to
get into the fort.
I'VE soon saw the coumandant, and
shouted TO him that i had a whole
regiment of artillery in nearby forest
and that the bombardment would COM
mence within a minute in case he did
not surrender. After that the COM
mandant ordered the drawbridge down
and we entered

this was done with four men ready 10

twenty men prisoners. while another

learned afterwards.
This done ordered my detachment
to come to the fort. You should have
seen the faces OF the officers and men
when they saw my force. Then the
Belgian flag was hauled down. and one
OF my men made a German flag from
a pair OF black pants white shirt. and
a red French sash. This we hoisted.
Meanwhile we had inspected the wine
cellar and so were able to celebrate
our victory with few bottles OF cham
paGne. The corks popped wonder
