by Lieut.. Col. Bailey, who used trans

bridge was completed May 49, on which

to relieve Gen. Banks in command Of

of command of SO many of his veteran
troops made it almost an empty honor

!. London, Aug. 28.-Occupation of
Lille, Roubaix and Valenciennes,
France, by German arms is news con-
yeyed in special advices to Paris from
Ostend, Belgium. Another special
cable from Berlin, by way of London,
reports that all the forts at Namur,
Belgium, have fallen and that Long
wy has been captured after a reso-
lutte defense.
The special cable adds that the Ger
man army led by the crown prince
has repulsed the French at Abrupper
and that Alsace is free of French
forces with the exception Of the ter
ritory about holman. .
These advices would indicate Ger
man advance along the entire front
toward Paris. Lille, Valenciennes
and Roubaix are near the Belgian
frontier and Lille is said to have been
strongly fortified. Valenciennes is
military station of less Importance.
while Roubaix is a manufacturing
; center.
BeIgians Evacuate Lille.
The Ostend correspondent of the
London Daily Express quotes a Bel
gian officer to the effect it was de-
cided Monday not to defend Lille and
that on Tuesday the mayor published
proclamation announcing the evac-
uation of the French troops and the
| transformation Of the town into an
undefended place. Tuesday evening
all the available treasure in Lille was
moved The advices telling of the
occupation of Lille by the German
army give no hint of battling there.
An Antwerp dispatch says it Off
| cially is announced the forts of Ma
gians have accomplished the double
object of reducing the German en-
trenchments and of drawing Germans
from the line at Malines (Mechlin)
| and Brussels to relieve pressure 'on
the French positions. The French
take their check in Belgium quietly
and seem to have gained confidence
by the strong stand taken by tho
FRENCH forces in Lorraine:
