cred outside the hotel that police had
to make way for the automobiles
which carried the units for Austria
to the railway station. The tables
were decorated with American flags
and the singing of patriotic Ameri-
can songs was a feature. THE dele

WEST FLANDERS
CUT Off FROM THE
REST OF BELGIUM
District Remains an Island Be-
cause Most of the Bridges
Have Been Blown Up.

THE HAGUE, via London, Nov.
19.-Advices received here from
Thielt, Belgium. Which were brought
by way of Sas van Gent Ey mes
senger and are dated Monday, Mo-
yember 49, state that West FLANDERS,
the scene Of incessant military op-
efations, remains an island cut off
fiom the rest of Belgium through the
blowing up of post IF the bridges
leading thereto. Peasants are obliged
TO make emergency bridges from
planks and crawl along these to es
cape from the danger zone. The Ger
mans have declared the territory
west of the railroad running from
Antwerp to Brussels and thence 20
Mons an official war area where no
Lody. including even Germans, is
allowed to travel without d special
flilitary passport.
IL Is difficult to obtain reliable news
of the situation in the war zone, as
the bedragled men and women who
manage to escape are too miserable,
through cold and hunger to give a
connected account of their expert
cnces Their oniy definite recollec-
tion seems to be the continued can
non fire and the endless professions
of wounded filling their villages.
1t was learned from some of them,
however, that DiXmude the scene If
such severe lighting, is entirely
ruined. Nieuport also suffered Sc
verely. The principal church there
has lost its tower aud It's roof, and
the. Renaissance carvings in it's in
terror have been demolished. In
Ypres the Cloth Hall, which was
one OF the few ancient buildings
saved from the English siege N the
year 1883, is severely damaged by
shrapnel fire.
In Termonde the Germans nave
ordered the schools reopened, but
since the ten thousand inhabitants
have been reduced to q hundred
there are no pupils, and besides, as
four-flft of the town is in ruins,
there are no schools. The bridges
here are lightly guarded by men of
the Bavarian LandWehr
Ghent is deserted by its population,
but is overfowing with German
wounded. Zeebrugge, ACCORDING to
reports, has been made station for
, submarines by the Germans. At
Alost the population is beginning to
return. The people are establishing
themselves in shacks and in the
ruins of their old homes.
From the entire province of Flan-
ders, where the roads are full of
aimlessly drifting people, come cred
table reports of ever-inc-easing suf-
fering and prvation. Food Is ex-
ceedingly scarce. and many persons
are suffering from hunger. The pens
ants are cutting down the old line
of trees at the country places fer
fuel

Bethlehem Gets S24,3OO,OOO
Gun Order from France

CLEVELAND, Nov 19.-The Iron
Trade Review today says: Demand
for pig iron shows fair improvement.
Pending inquiries represent many
consumers, including some large
ones. and the volume of orders en-
tered has increased. There has been
some increase in plant activity, but
there are no definite assurances that
the finishing mills will be kept busy,
for orders in sight for finished ma
terials are not of large proportions.
Orders continue to be placed for de-
livery of various kinds of equipment
to foreign nations. The French gov
ernment has awarded the Bethlehem
steel Company an order for 900 field
guns at $4,000 each, to be delivered
during the next year and a half. Con-
siderable tonnage of bars for the
manufacture of shrapnel has been
