People OF BRUSSELS Not Alarmed.

ANY battle for the actual possession
Of Brussels will be fought outside, In
the direction of Wavre and Louvain.
If the Germans take Brussels, ii does
not mean In any sense military set
back for the allies. beyond its senti-
mental effect and the opinion in Brus-
sells was that owing to French sue
cesses In Alsace and the check the
German right wing has suffered In
Belgium something must be done
which would have at least the form
of success.
Brussels apparently is not. unduly
scared. The shops are open; the street
cars and the taxicabs are running, ana
the newspapers are appearing regu-
larly.
There Is no sign Of alarm and the
staff states that the situation is ex-
cellent AS matter of fact, the gen.
eral public had not yet heard the news
which was rapidly spreading early this
morning in official quarters.
THE people will submit to the Ger
mans without any demonstration, be-
cause of the practical good sense or
the Belgians which teaches them that
resistance after their army is driven
back is fruitless and because of their
supreme confidence that the British
and French will eventually drive the
Germans out of Belgium.
The Belgian officials are warning
the people not to attempt reprlsals be-
cause that would bring reprisals on
them. You can hear any kind Of ru-
NOR In Brussels and il the Germans
are determined to attack In iorce'
Brussels will be taken unless the al
lies decide to resist for the sake of the
possession of the town.
"The Germans have been using their
cavalry with great audacity and some
times with more audacity than skili.
They have sent cavalry as scouts IN
all directions and some reported bat
ties have been no more than recon-
noissances in force, in which the Ger
mans used both cavalry and Infantry
and some guns, with either one Of two'
purposes. They either were aiming
to cover their flanks by these continu-
Gus threats or else were ascertaining
the Belgian disposition with view to
an attack in force.
The honors are with the Belgians
in these combats. Their bicycle corps
have responded instantly to alarms
The country is wholly unsuited to re-
connoissance. There is rarely a field
of ten acres which would permit OF
a charge.
Using telephones which. with au-
have become such an inn

are able to give the alarm instantly
when the Germans appear. Then Inc
