The Ogden Gateway

"Completition is the life of trade
and development-and is just as
sharp and legitimate between rail-
roads as among other lines of endea-
vor.
"There is no valid or legitimate rea-
son why the Union Pacific system,
with its superior trucks equipment
and service, should divide its business
with the Denver & Rio Grande or any
other line.

80 per cent is on side trips from Salt

"The closing of the Ogden gateway

against the Gould lines, and was ag-
gravated in measure BY the action

order to hold to itself the long haul
to Pueblo and Denver.
However, matters may we'll be al
lowed to take their own course. The
interstate commerce commission is the

decision is it may be assumed viii

The European War

Reports from the seat of the war in
Europe indicates that the German
army is moving irresistibly down up
on Paris, and, perhaps, before the
week ends will invest that city. Or
the east the Russian army is moving
across the German and Austrian from
tiers, toward the capitals of those
countries. There are rumors to the
effect that Turkey and Italy are about
TO enter the conflict as allies of Ger
many and Austria. The war news is
little more definite than they have
been.

Fresh Troops to Slaughter.

Then. when only fraction of our
regiment survived. we moved to a diff
ferent part of the battlefield. while
fresh troops were brought up to go
through the same course of action. 1t
was common talk among our men that
hours without any kind of adequate at
tention, for the simple reason it was
impossible to reach them without al
most certain death.
Their sufferings were heartrending
beyond the powers Of description, and
there were sights and sounds that
even amid the din of battle shook our
nerves and struck terror to our hearts.
The bravest of men may well be full
of fear on a modern battlefield"
The German who told this tale of
war. says the correspondent, was well
educated and conscript from mid
die class family. His companions had
similar things to relate.
The wholesale cremation of bodies
of German soldiers killed in the fight
ing before Liege also was described
by the German fugitives who have
crossed the frontier into Holland.
During two or three successive nights
after the fearful carnage around the
forts of Liege the Germans collected
their dead and piled them in heaps of
twenty or thirty each

Count Ehrenberg. correspondent OF

the terrible scenes enacted chilled even
the hearts of the soldiers. The count

"As we pressed forward our ranks
became thinner and thinner. Shells
burst among us. killing and wounding,
and such wounds were far worse than
death itself. while the rifle fire of the
Begians moved down our men in doz-
ems, scores, hundreds.
Words Fail to Describe Horrors.
''Have you ever been under fire, ever
pushed forward against the invisible
enemy. with comrades dropping either
dead or mutilated all around you?
Ever seen the effect of modern artil-
lery trained on masses of human be-
ings? Ever seen heaps of dead and
heaps of wounded all mixed together?
Ever heard the cries of fallen soldiers
you were obliged to leave to their suf-
ferings In order to continue the battle?
If not you cannot imagine what we
went through at Liege. Some of our
attacks were by day and others by
night

was much unnecessary bloodshed. We
marched straight at the enemy's lines
and toward the mouths of hostile artil-
lery as If on maneuver in field of
sham opponents. 1t was magnificent,
but not war. as war should be conduct
ed In this age with more destructive
weapons.
IF there were moments when we
broke and ran it was because a further
advance into the jaws Of death was a
sheer impossibility. After the first as
saults. with their disastrous endings. |
the spirit of the attackers was broken. |
Deep depression followed the buoyant |
charge with which we marched into
the enemy's country. The lack Of en- |
thusiasm spread through all the ranks
and retarded success. yet with relent- |
less discipline we were required to hurl |
ourselves repeatedly at lines which
seemed unbreakable.
