Army of German Boys Meets

rBy Cable to The Tribune. ]

Dunkirk. France, Oct. 20.-To-day's 5
official bulletins confirm the general
feeling of optimism in northern rance
by reporting a great Belgian success
at Roulers, where the Germans nave
been driven back to Putten, with con-
siderable losses.
On Sunday the Germans called UP
rs 900 volunteers, mostly youths OF
twenty. with strict instructions to cross
the River User at all costs. THIS task
the German volunteers failed to &C
complish, and, in attempting 1t, they
suffered losses said to have been near
" 10 per cent. The assistance rem
dered by the British warships in the
bombardment of the German line ad-
yancing upon Newport has been an
important factor. If the news Is true
that the Allies are at Bruges, IT is
obvious that the German lines no long
or extend in one unbroken line to the
coast.

Both French and British eye-wit-
nesses agree that II is only the heavy
guns of the Germans and their clever
tactic that are saving them from
rout in France. The German soldiers
will no longer remain, even 10 look ~

is a common complaint OF the frenCh
and British "Tommies' now that tney
never get chance with bayonets. AS
soon as they see us coming. they elther
bolt or surrender" they say.
For some time the tactics Of the en-
envy in retreat have made slow the
Allies advance. To retard pursuit
they establish themselves IN towns ana
lorg rows Of dwellings by the way
side. and there, with machine guns on
TIE roofs and artillery wherever 1t can
be borne. they work havoc. For time
the Allies refrained from aiming their
artillery at such places, not wishing
10 destroy the buildings. The Ger
mans knew that. and the result was
that the British and the French SUI
fered severely. But the Allies have
changed their policy. 1t is better, to
lose buildings, even antiquities, than
GOOD men. Those positions now are
first shelled and the Germans are run
out with bsyonets after them to the
next group of buildings. There the
same thing happens.

tinue TO arrive daily by trainloads'
The new military hospital, just opened,

hospital has bacn started which wili
accommodate 1000 sick or wounded.
Great difficulty is being experienced
in finding doctors TO attend the great
mass of wounded. and the Ministry OF
Education has agreed that students IN
their fourth and fifth years entering
the military hospitals may count the
time as part of their hospital year.
Reports from Triest say ina,
wounded soldiers are arriving there, and
at Goritza and other towns In Southern
Austria in great numbers.
The American Red Cross mission,
which recently arrived in Budapest
with twenty tons of bandages and
dressings, and great quantities OF med
icines and surgical supplies, has been
given charge of an improvised hospital
in the Wechselman Institute for the
Blind. The hospital contains 1870 beds.

FEW OF WOUNDED
IN THIS WAR DYING
[Ry Gable 70 The Trihun.. ]

London, Oct. 2O.-Sir William Osler,
professor Of medicine at oxford and
since the beginning Of war in close
touch with hospital work. said to your
correspondent to-day:
81 think this war will set a new rec
ord for low mortality among the
wounded. Formerly with the best first
aid and hospital work the mortality
record of or per cent of those VINO
reached the base hospitals was consid-
cred creditable. To date there has
been only one fatality out of more
than seven hundred wounded who have
reached the base hospital at Oxford.
This death was caused by tetanus.
The low rate Is partly due to the
safe sterilization of modern high veloc-
ity bullets and partly to the efficiency
of the field first aid. l have yet to see
wound inflicted by either dum-dum
or explosive bullets. If experience
counts for anything the expeditionary
force on the Continent has more to
fear from bacilli Of typhoid fever than
from bullets or bayonets. In the Boer
war bacilli accounted for $4,000 of the
$4,000 lives lost"

Department of Pas de Calais, France
oct. 20.-The position Of the German
army on what may be called the Os-
tend Dixmude line remains to-day the
same as during the last few days NO
progress has been made by the enemy
so far as improving their position IL
concerned, and every day-every hour,
indeed--tends 20 increase materially
the difficulty Of the situation which
faces them.
The Allies position is in every, way
satisfactory. The country in which the
battle is being fought is fiat and sandy,
intersected by canals. The Germans
must come out in the open 60 fight ~
they are TO make progress, and II Is
worthy of remembrance that every time
they have done that in the war they
have been hurled back. They will have
20 fight practically without the aid OF
sheir heavy artillery, owing to the
nature of the country. The fiat helds
and the extensive sand dunes, covered
with MARIAN grass, which spreads IN
land, certainly makes this an extremely
difficult country for q hostile army TO
operate In. An officer who has just re-
turned from the south says the Ger
mans have been practically cleared out
Of upper AlsRee. The population re-
csived the French troops with the
greatest enthusiasm, and no anti-rreneh
feeling was found TO exist
