ANTWERP FALLS UNDER TERRIBLE
 ARTILLERY FIRE
Civilian popuace F1ees Government Removed tend-egy Raked by Exruppss Since Wednesday Night French Line Quiet

London. Oct. .1o.--Antwerp the. last and the strongest citadel of Belgium, has fallen before the rain of huge shells which the Germans began throwing into the city at midnight of last Wednesday The civilian popu- 1atfon of the city has in large part fled, the seat of the Belgian govern ment has been moved to Ostend and the Germans are in occupation.
 Because Of the chaotic conditions during the past few days in the be- leaguered city and the interruption of teIegraphtc conmnn nnication there has been much delay in the transmission Of news from Antwerp to England. Nevertheless gland has been ex- pecting and discounting the fall of the Belgian position and newspapers are speculating on what strategic use the 7 Germans will make of it now it is in their hands.
 The. battle line in France is now so long, forming as it does a rough curve 36 miles long from Lorraine to the Belgian frontier. that the bat : tie of the Aisne and the operations before Antwerp had become so close 1y knit as to be, from the military point of view, inseparabfe.
 Tho hope of the allies to deliver a crushing blow against the German army in Ersnce.z befegsszthse oceupa-

ton of Antwerp by the enemy is now thing of the past. The. German right wing under General Von Kluck apparently is still intact and the offi- cial communication given but in Paris last night recorded no change in the situation, merely emphasizing that there was sharp fighting in the region of Rove, nearly one hundred miles south of the northern extremity of the fighting line, where opposing bodies of cavalry were clashing al- most within sight of the North Sea.
 Commenting on the situation in Belgium before 1t was officially that Antwerp actually had fallen, English newspapers asked with optimism what the conauerors were going to do with Antwerp now they had 1t, part1cu- larly in view of the fact that 1t is concede that no fort can stand against artillery such as is used in modern warfare.
 Despatches attempting to anaiyze the German plan of campaign, with Antwerp in their hands, declare that the German purpose is to sweep over northern France with the object of aking possession of the channel ports and thus bringing the warfare nearer England. It is said here the German newspapers are predicting the use of this northern Belgian position as a base for operations against England.

FRENCH SPARE TOWN
 AS AUSTRIANS FLEE

Bordeaux, Oct 1o.-An official an- nouncement made by the French gov ernment today says the French fleet icommanded by Vice Admiral Boue de Lapeyere, after revetualing the gar rison at the Montenegrin seaport of Antivari, visited the islands in the Adr1atic between Cattaro and Lisa.
 Later the French warships appear ed before Ragusa and Grayosa-
 The Austrian authorities and other notabIes at Ragusa He'd precipitately on two special trains as soon as the battIeships were sighted
 The Italian and S1av population the official announcement says, ..re- mained calm. It would have been easy to reduce Ragusa to cfnders if our fleet had been willing to follow the example Of the Germans The flight of the authorities was sufhcient. The French squadron merely de- stroyed the lighthouses and the wire less apparatus at Gravosa.
 The French torpedo boat de- stroyer sabretache made few pris- oners at the P1tini Ighthouse The Austrian warships remained prudent ly hidden at Cattaro and PoIa.y

 ''This same MT. Hill was a very powerful factor in the affairs of Con necticut in 1907 when the legislature granted charter for a railroad from New Canaan to NorwaIk with out poles, wires or other apparatus for the transmission of electricity, and so long as it shall operate its ears on said rail- way by sorfe power other than steam or electricity
 "Mr Hill, this same railroad was proposed by citizens whom you knew well. They were acquaintances of yours Where were you when the charter was being discussed?
 The same lobby controlled 1egis- latures granted charters to outsiders to do all sorts of things with no linn it to the issue of stocks, and bonds, and the character of the business.
 "But the best that our people could get in order to develop this conmUni- ty where we reside was the kind of a charter such as described above.
 Where were you MT Hill when there was a, chance to say something g about a. road that could be built?
 ''The best that our people could get as late 1907 was a charter to build a. road that forced them to use horses or mules to draw the cars or perfect gasoline combustion 1ocomo- tives.
 "A word from this great citizen might have helped our people but why did he stand by and permit the 1ob- by at Hartford to say that we could have a railroad if we did not use electricity or steam, poles or wires2 Why, pray tell :? t'I ask these questions of MT.

Paris, Oct. 1o-The response of President Wilson to the telegram of Emperor William, in which the Presi- dent expresses the hope that the war will soon be finished, is published by practically all the French papers but without comment.
