KAISER TO FORTIFY BELGIAN

Germans Will Mount Heaviest Artillery Shores to Repel
British FIeet-Rumor Submarines Will Be Rushed to Sea-
ports by Rail for Attack Warships of Enemy

Germany is trying to acquire the
coast cities 10 mount them, and then
endeaNor to force the British fleet to
keep away from the coast. If this
should work out as planned by the
Germans-and the British military
and naval experts seriously doubt it
then the suggestion that Germany
would be able to move submarines by
rail from her naval bases and launch
them directly into the Channel would
work out.
But at the admiralty it is declared
that if the Germans take Ostend or
any of the Channel ports they viii

cities or to mount their guns. AL

sem bled where they can strike al a
few hours notice. The British air.
men have kept the general staff
posted on every new development by
the Germans. They have given timely
warning Of every movement of Ger
man troops to reinforce their line,
and it was due TO their excellent
work that the British Belgian forces
were able to escape from Antwerp.
They will be depended upon 10 locate
these guns and to furnish the range,
so that it will be impossible to mount
them.
Meanwhile there is less apprehen-
sion here today over any invasion Of
England by the Germans than was in
evidence earlier in the week The
various newspapers bitterly rebulSe
the Times military expert for his sug-
gestions, and affirm their belief that
the fleet will continue to furnish ade-
quate protection to the English coast.

LONDON, Oct 16.--Germany plans
to mount her new and greatest guns
along the Belgian seacoast. With
them she hopes to force the British
fleet to stay far off shore. These
guns are already mounted on trains
that wait inside the Belgian border.
They are ready on signal to he
rushed to Ostend and other seacoast
cities, where, it is said, the concrete
bases on which they are to be set
are already constructed.
Refugees who have arrived here
from Belgium say the British and
Belgian officers, who are familiar
with the situation. insist that this is
the German plan. They say boasts
here that the British fleet will make
short work Of the Germans if they
try TO occupy the coast cities are
premature.
These new German guns. the latest
product of the house of Krupp. are
reported to be an Improvement on
their big siege guns with which they
reduced Lamur and Antwerp. They
have the added advantage. the
rumors reaching here say. of being
as easily sighted as a rife.
It is declared that the tests OF these
guns are the real reasons why the
Germans changed their plan of cam
paign and started out TO try to take
all of Belgium. They far exceeded
the expectations of the German artil-
lery experts. While because of their

Early last night neighbors heard
Mary, the youngest daughter of Mr..
Morris, crying outside the door. The
girl is about seven years old. She
could not get in the house
An investigation showed that the
doors and windows were all securely
fastened and the blinds drawn A
neighbor became suspicious on re-
ceiVing no answer to his knocks or
rings at the front door and enlisted
the help of Thomas Morris, a brother
of Edward p. Morris.
The two were able to break into
the house through a side window.
AS soon as an entry WAS forced the
odor of gas was noticed and the
men hurried to the front bedroom OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Morris on the second
door. There the door was forced and
the couple were discovered

the tragedy is offered ~ Mrs.

avenue. West Orange. q sister of
Mrs. Morris. She declared that
Mrs. Morris had often told her
that Norris had shown signs of in

she had awakened to find the gas
turned on in her room, presumably
by her husband

in the Edison works. Neighbors re-
called that some time ago he suffered
from nervous troubles and went away.

CROKER HEARING

money through him | is said that
DIR. Dennis gave Crocker some 1000
for mortgages that are now ques-
toned, and some OF which, it is as
serted, have no existence at all II
was said today that DR. Dennis's
testimony promises to be sensational
in character. DIR. Dennis formerly
lived in this city, but for the last
two years he has resided in Florida.

in the many transfers and mortgages
have agreed to surrender their hold
ings, only asking that formal order

John d. Dewitt and Sol .JeydeI. who
appear as the holders of a number of
parcels.

WILL NOT ACCEPT
 MOVIE PROPOSAL
HOT SPRINGS WILL NOT GIVE UP $to,ooo AS ASSESSED, FOR
 STATE BUILDING.
1t is Considered That the Sum Would
 Be Far Too Excessive to Pay for the Advertising Hot Springs Would Get.

The proposal for putting iiot Springs in the movies to be shown in the Arkansas building at the Panama Pacific exposition, which building Governor Hays is now in San Francisco to select, did not meet favor yesterday with the committee to whom it was referred, and will not have Uhe endorsement of the Business Mems League to the business men Of Hot Springs, who, if the proposal was accepted, would he expected to raise the money to pay for the expense.
 Mr Richards, representing the Pathe Company, was here, and let ter from Mir. r. B. r. Hollenburg of the committee to finance the Arkan- sas building, was also here.
 The proposal, it seems, is that ten thousand feet of picture film showing Arkansas is to be made by the Pathe Company and is to be prepared for display in the Arkansas building. The cities of the state interested in being represented in the films are to pay s5 per foot for the pictures shown of them. The committee had indicated that Hot Springs would want two thousand feet of the film showing this resort, and that would mean that we would have to pay $l0,- eco for the two thousand feet Of film.
 The proposition did not appeal to us as a good one" said Secretary Bedding of the Business Mems League last night. There is no doubt but that if a reel shown in the state build ing during the exposition we should have a place in it, but l hardly think we would want to meet an expense of S10,000. 1 understand from the pro posal that the Pathe Company gets Sl per foot for making the film, and that the other $i per foot we would pay. or SS.000 of the sum, would gC towards the $50,000 for the Arkansas state building
 It was generally conceded by the committee that Hot Springs is doing it's share towards the exhibit in the Arkansas building through putting uT $f0,000 for the coming Arkansas state Fair. which might have been abandoned this year but for the pur pose it would serve as gathering up the exhibits to he transferred next year to San Francisco.
