a total of $172,417 $40 in pensions in
the fiscal year ended June 30 last, &C
cording to Commissioner of Pensions
S~altzgaber, in his annual report made
public today. This compares with
$174,171,660 in 1913, which was the
largest amount I've paid out. The
commissioner points out, however,
that the summit in expenses has been
reached and a decrease in the amount
may be expected. The grand total of
expenditures for pensions from 1856
up to and including 1914 was $4,63S,-
511,926.
The total number of pensioners of
all classes on the rolls was 785 239, as
against S20,272 in 1913. The number
of civil war pensioners was 72S,129,

WORLDS STRONGEST FORT
Modern Guns Force Plucky BeIgians
to Evacuate After 1f-Day Siege
Shells Thrown into City by Ger
Set Many Fires.

London, Oct. 10.-Antwerp and the
forts surrounding the city are now in
complete possession of the Germans,
but the greater part of the Belgian mr.
my has escaped.
1t took the Germans Just IL day to
capture the strongest fortress in the
world.
The fall of Antwerp is evidence that
even the most powerful forts are no
match for the colossal howitzers which
the invaders have successfully en-
ployed against every fortified place
that stood in their way. These huge
guns open gaps through which the be-
siegers find entrance for their field
artillery and infantry.
The Germans, after shelling the city
itself for many hours, making it un-
tenable entered the town through the
suburb of Berchamti, to the east They
had made a breach in the outer line
of forts, some Of which were destroy
ed by their big guns and Others blown
up by the defenders. The Germans
followed similar plans in dealing with
the inner belt of forts and at the same
time threw shells into the city, which
was set afire in many places.
The inner forts, like those further
out, soon succumbed to the enormous
shells, and on Friday morning several
of these forts had fallen, opening the
way for the Germans into the city.
BY midday they were in occupation of
the town, and at 2:30 in the after
noon the banner on the cathedral
was replaced by a white flag, indica-
ting surrender.
