BELGIUM EXPECTS
PROMPT REVENGE
CAPITAL Removed to Havre
in Order to Better Keep
Up the Fight.

Washington, Oct. 1.-The proclama-
ton posted in Ostend signed by all the
ministers, announcing the wltndra"Sl
of the Belgian government to french
soil was received by cable to-nlght aI
the Belgian Legation. IL follows:
"Citizens-for about two and hall
months, the Belgian soldiers nave Deen
defending, foot by foot, at the price
Of heroic efforts, the fate of their
country. The enemy certainly expected
ia annihilate our army in Antwerp,
but retreat, in which the order and
DIGNITY have been irreproachsble, has
successfully foiled this hope and has
assured us the conservation OF military
forces which will continue to night
without respite for this most Just ana
noble cause.
"At this moment these forces are
onerating in the direction Of our south-
ern frontier, where they are supported
bv the Allies. Thanks to their valor-
Gus cooperation, the victory OF justice
is certain. Notwithstanding the sacrl-
fees already endured by the Belgian
nation, with a courage equalieo onIy
bv its magnitude, a new trial Is aided
by the present circumstances.
am order not to serve the plans OF
tho invaders, it is important that the
Relqian government should temporarily

ono side and with France and England

tional sovereignty. For this reason the
government is leaving 0stend to-day.
with q grateful remembrance OF the
welcome which this city has given IT..
"The government will be temporarily
established at Havre, where the noble
friendship of the government OF the
French Republic has offered our gov
eminent. with the fulness of its SOW
ereign rights, the entire exercise OF It's
authority and also of its duties.
"Citizens: This momentary ordeal
which our patriotism must accept Will
have, we are sure, its prompt revenge.
The Belgian administration vii! con-
tinue TO operate in full measure as far
as the local circumstances permit. The
King and the government depend upon
your good judgment, on your patriot
ism. On your part, you may count
upon our entire self devotion, upon the
gallantry of our army and upon the
support of the Allies to hasten the
hour of mutual deliverance.
"Our beloved country, so odiously be-
trayed and so odiously treated by one
of the powers which had solemnly
promised to guarantee her neutrality.
has excited a growing admiration in
the whole world. Thanks to the union,
the courage and the sagacity of all her
children, she will remain worthy of
this admiration, which sustains her to-
day. Tomorrow she will emerge from
her trials greater and more beautiful,
having suffered for justice and for the
honor Of civilization.

found on a German officer taken pris-
oner:
Secret.
Beloved defenders of the Father
land:
Our Fatherlsnd has been overtaken
by sorrow that involves us all. We
have been compelled TO go to war at a
moment when we were totally unpre-
pared, and corn lies ungarnered in the
fields. To the last drop of your blood
must you fight not to surrender to the
enemy.
1--WE have heard rumors that Ger
man troops in several places have been
attacked not only by the enemy's army.
but by the population, and therefore |
order you to shoot all inhabitants on
whom arms are found i'm the enemy's
country, not sparing either women or
children. Furthermore, In places where
the population offers resistance you
are to take the entire population, great
and small. prisoners, and to burn their
towns and raze them TO the ground"
This document, says the official jour
nal, is signed, but the authorities re-
frain from reproducing the exalted per-
sons signature.
This extraordinary order was found
on a prisoner taken in the neighbor-
hood Of Przemysl. From its obviously
circular character il presumably repre-
sents orders issued generally 20 Ger
mans.
The Council of Russian Ministers
will soon consider the question of
liquidation of land ownership by Ger
mans in Russia. German land owners
may become Russian subjects while re-
tanning in full force all rights, privi-
leges and obligations of German sub
jects by special sanction of the German
government, presumably with the OBJ
feet of facilitating the system of es-
pionage on which so much German pol
lev proves TO have been based.
In one OF the border provinces two
hundred thousand such Germans are
owners OF land aggregating 100000
acres. The purchase of such land,
