BRITAIN TO INTERN
ALL ALIEN ENEMIES
Austrians and Germans of Mill

London, Oct. 21.-Austrisn and Ger
man subjects Of military age, who since
the beginning Of the war have been
allowed their liberty in England unless
they rested under some suspicion, are
TO be interned in detention camps.
The police during the last few days
have been arresting hundreds OF men
between the ages of seventeen and
sixty-fve years and sending them to
camps in different parts of the coun-
try. More than 200 were arrested to-
day in London. 100 were arrested IN
Manchester and similar numbers were
taken in all the large cities.
This action Of the government IS
necessitated, IL is stated, because OF
the facilities offered German spies to
enter the country with Belgian refu-
gees on the pretence Of being Belgianns

Wealthy bankers and merchants are re-
csiving the same treatment as are

Forced to Abandon Move
ment and Mass Forces
Around Lille.
KAISER'S CAVALRY
LURED INTO TRAP
Row of BUSHES in Trench Draws
Attack and Four Hundred Are
Killed by Hidden Maxim.
[By Cable to The Trlbune.l

Department of Pas de Calais (name
of town censored), Oct. 21.-The Ger
mans have been forced to abandon
their attack on extreme Northeastern
France, beginning with Dunkirk, and
have massed their forces In areas west
of Lille, where a terrific battle is rag
ing.
The Germans advance from Antwerp
and their scheme to sweep over the
Pas de Calais and cut off the COM
munications of the Allies by way OF
Calais and Boulogne have utterly mis-
carried. A very slight bombardment
off the coast near Ostend from the sea
has proved TO them how untenable is
that coast against the British feet, and
they have come up against far more
than they expected. As they APP
preached Dunkirk they were weary and
famished and were surrenderlng IN
hundreds. Their losses were frightful.
About four hundred German cavalry
were ambushed and annihilated two
days ago near Dixmude. BUSHES were
cunningly arranged along a shallow
trench. The Germans charged, but
there were no men under the BUSHES.
Maxim guns entiladed the trench,
which became a shambles.
The aged Able Bogaert, cure OF Pra-
delles, near Hazebrock, has been shot
by the Germans because he was un-
able to give them the key of his bel
fry, from which they wished to make
observations. He told them quite
truthfully that his verger, on being
modified, had taken the key away
with him. Having buffeted him cruel
ly, they marched him of and shot him.
Such terrible scenes of suffering as
one must witness hourly in this woe
stricken land! For the exodus from
Belgium has spread. The multitude of
starving refugees all over the country
between Dunkirk and Boulogne makes
ones horror and detestation of Ger
man military methods more and more
fervent. The anguish of individuals
constantly strikes the chord OF pity in
the heart. Food supplies are running
short, with all these extra mouths to
feed. Milk is very scarce. Coal was
pat up five francs a ton this morning
Horse meat is replacing beef; there is
no mutton or pork, and the supplies
of wine and beer are running so short
in Picardy that if the Germans ever
get into Pas de Calais they will have a
chance to get sober.

ALLIES RETAKE
TOWN OF ROULERS
First Capture 1t from Ger
mans; Then Driven Out,
Return in Force.

Amsterdam Cby way Of London), Oct.
o. The GTelegrsaf" learns from Sluis
that the Allies were successful AFTER q
hon,bardrnent of Roulers, in west
Flanders, that lasted throughout Tues
day night. 1t is reported that the
Allies now occupy the town.
The "Telegraaf" correspondent says
that 10000 Germans last week occupied
Roulers and later marched to Newport
and Dixmude TO strengthen the Ger
man army in that section. A guard Of
onlv about 100 men was left to hold the
town.
On Sunday 200 French Dragons from
Ypres appeared, chased the German
guard out Of Roulers and took posses
sion. Several thousand reinforce
ments soon came up and built barrl-
cades in the streets and posted ar
tillery.
A German force hastily dispatched
from Bruges and Client later swept
down on the town, and heavy fighting
commenced. Supported by artillery,
German troops gained an entrance,
and fierce street fighting followed, the
French being forced to retreat.
Once again the Germans occupied the
town and burned down many buildings
to open a way for their artillery. Many
of the inhabitants, the correspondent
saws, must have lost their lives in the
cellars where they sought refuge.
On Tuesday reinforcements for the
Allies arrived with heavy guns, and
after an all-night bombardment the al
lied troops were successful They are
now reported to be in possession Of the
place.

Thousands Around Nelson
Monument, Blocking
All Traffic.
FLORAL TRIBUTES FOR
VESSELS LOST IN WAR
Demonstrations for Wounded
British and Belgians and the
Marching Volunteers.
Is GOING ON.
tBy Cable to The Tribune ]

London, Oct. 2l.--So great was the
throng that gathered in Trafalgar
Square to-day on the occasion of the
109th anniversary of the death of Lord
Nelson at Trafalgar that traffic was de-
moralized many times throughout the
day by the thousands that overlooked
from the square into the streets ad-
jacent thereto. Never in the memory
of Londoners have people gathered in
such numbers to celebrate Trafalgar
Day.
Patriotic demonstrations were con-
spcuous all day. Thousands crowded
about the base of the Nelson shaft TO
view the hundreds of floral tributes
placed there. Many, however, never
got anywhere near the decorations,
which were in themselves Of an ex-
traordinary nature, including floral
memorials to those vessels of the Eng
lish fleet which have been destroyed
since the present war began, namely,
the Aboukir. the Cressy, the Hogue,
the Hawke, the Amphion, the Speedy,
the Pathfinder, the Pegasus and the
submarine Ell.
When the crowd was densest during
the afternoon a wagonload of wounded
British sailors and another Of wounded
Belgian soldiers passed through from
Whitehall. They were stopped, and,
as the crowds pressed closer, fren2ied
cheers for Belgium filled the air, while
the soldiers waved to great mass of
people.
The police had only time partly to
clear the thoroughfare when 5000 or
more English volunteers turned into
the choked street, also to be greeted
with q demonstration. Thousands
Joined in the chorus, ITS a Long, Long
Way to Tipperar1" which the soldiers
were singing. Women and girls wrung
the hands Of some of the soldiers and
fell in beside them. Other women
overcome by their feelings, broke
down and wept. 1t seemed for a short
time as if the traffic had got into such
an unextrcable mess that the dob
bies" would never be able to untangle
it, but they finally did by shuntine
large streams into Whitehall, where
many gathered in front of the War
Office in the hope of seeing Lord
Kitchener.
The Navy Leagues tribute was q
large wreath, tied with the French
colors, bearing this inscription: IRE.

PAGE GETS $75O,000
FOR BELGIAN RELIEF

London. Oct. 21.-The British gov
eminent, through the Foreign Office,
transferred to Ambassador Page to-day
S750,000 for relief to Belgians by the
committee which is being formed. Mr..
Page also received $4,000 from the
American Red Cross. The committee
will be called the American Commits
sion for Belgian Relief. It's scope ex-
tends only to the purchase of food. bu.
later it will take charge of the re-
turning Belgian refugees now here.
There are probably more than $4,000
refugees in England alone. Virtually
the whole important work for Belgian
relief will fall into American hands,
because practically all other nations
are unable to do anything because Of
the peculiar circumstances.
The English governments contribu-
ton TO Belgian relief TO be expended
by the American committee is to BE-
s750,000 a month.

Washington, Oct. 2l.--Sir Georse
Paish, the British inancier, VINO Is
here at the invitation of the Treasury
Department TO discuss the payment OF
the present American indebtedness 10
his country. asserted this evening that
the peculiar anomaly existed that Eng
land. a warning nation, was gong 70
iend America, q peaceful nation, slOV'-
900 600. This sum, he explained, rep
resented that part of the indebtedness
which England was willing to let lie
over. ,,..,
The total indebtedness Of the United
States TO England is approximately
$3.50 100000, but the payment OF thIs'
as explained by Sir George tonight, IN
wolves first the payment OF sl0o,00o'OoV
in gold, which is now being gathered
through a pool in New York, and the
possible taking over OF large amount,
say $50,000,000, in cotton. THIS would
leave balance still due 20 Englan or
S1O0,O00,0O0, the limit that England
would agree to. :,
Sir George said that while Englands
financial condition just now was so
good that it could afford to wait Tor
this money he did not know how soon
il would be needed. As a result TINS
"loan," as he termed it, of 100000 0O
will have to be short one, prooaply
fer less than six months.
The British financier suggested TINS
evening that this $100,000,000 could be
used to great advantage in helping the
cotton industry. He said that it would
have to be paid TO England in cash,
but not necessarily in gold. Il could
be paid in wheat and other foodstunss,
horses and many other things when
America is now shipping to England III
large quantities. All that England
wanted. he said, was to be able to place
her hands on the money when she
needed it.
He declared he had no plans as to
the handling Of this 100000 900. he
| Is here to receive the proposals OF the
| financial representatives of this gov
eminent, and is willing to abide by any
plan that will work to the mutual ad-
vantage of this country and England.
The House to-day defeated, by vote
of 1913 to 81, the Hardwick-Pou amend
ment to the currency law directing the
Secretary Of the Treasury to deposit
/ $3.50 900 900 in national and state banks
of the South, to be loaned in turn by
these banks upon the cotton and to-
bacco crops.
Representative Glass, of Virginia, al
though a Southerner, led the night
against the amendment. Mr.. Mann, the
minority leader, aided the opposition.
The House first rejected the provision
in the Hardwick-Pou amendment to sell
Panama Canal bonds to raise cotton re-
| lief funds.
With the defeat of cotton legislation
the Southern delegation grew obstrep-
erous, and no vote could be reached to-
night on any other measure. The ad-
tournament of the session Is now ex-
pected FRIDAY.
