ASSERT GERMAN
OCCUPATION Of
LIECE WAS OF NO
REAL WAR VALUE

London, Aug. 10.-Messages received
today In official quarters In London
from the Belgian general staff assert
that the occupation of Liege by the
German troops has not had the slight
est influence on the strategic situation.
1t is declared that so long as the ring
of forts around Liege remains intact,
as it still is, the guns command three
of the principal roads by which the
German army can advance. This, 1t
is pointed out, makes 1t impossible for
the Germans under the present circum-
stances to receive supplies or ammuni-
ton.
Every line of railroad between Liege
and the German frontier 10 alleged to
have been destroyed, and the Belgian
troops are said to have blown up every
bridge, culvert and tunnel.
The Belgian general staff declares
that it has receive information that
the Germans, expecting to take Liege
In few hours, brought with them only
sufficient food for few days and lit
tie ammunition. their plan being to
rush Liege and make it their base of
operations.
The same authority denies the Ger
man assertion of the capture OF 1000
Belgian prisoners and adds that not
a sixgle Belgian soldier remains in
the town of LieGe as they are all quar-
tered in the forts.
AS far as can be learned by the Bel
gian general staff some 100000 Ger
man troops were engaged at Liege and
they are said to have been so weaken
ed as to be unable effectively to attack
the forts. On the other hand, it is ar
gued that 1t is not possible for the
forts to concentrate their fire on the
town of Liege itself.
The next development in the situa-
ton at Liege is expected to be the ar
rival Of the Belgian main army. TO
ported to be advancing rapidly from
Louvain, in the northwest, to attack
the Germans occupying Liege.

London, Oct. 5-The fact that fight ing is in progress in and around the town of -Douai, midway between Arrss and Valenciennes on the railroad to Mons, is taken in London to show how surely the allies in France have push ed the forward movement they hope will envelope General Won K1uck, the commander of the German right wing. in net of steel.
 For the past week the Germans, so far as can be ascertained from the few facts known in London, have been vafnly hurting themselves against diff ferent points in the allied line in an effort to discover weak mesh in the chain. At the present time, in the view of General Joffre, commander-in- chief of the French forces, the proces- sion of attrition has gone far enough to justify the resumption of offensive moveme ents on the part of the allies as is announced in the latest communi- cation from French headquarters.
 Apparently the intent now is to at tempt something decisive against the German right wing and if possible bring to an end this contest which for magniture and stubbornness is with out precedent in history.
