BRUSSELS, Aug 12.-A regiment | of dragons, coming in the direction of Liege. attempted to surprise the Belgians at Aineffe in the province Of ! Liege, but were repulsed, leaving 153 dead and 1O2 prisoners. The Uhlans have taken upwards of S4OO,OOO from the bank at Hasselt. the capital of the province of Limburg.
 On the report that operations on an extensive scale were imminent a cor respondent, by permission Of the war control, made a circuit along the 20 miles of the Belgian front, visiting the extreme advance and talking with the officers and men
 The Belgians are on the alert as im- portant bodies of German cavalry are making their way through the the country above Liege, proceeding in the direction of Tongres and St. Trond
 The correspondents impression is that no heavy fighting is likely in Bel gian Limburg where the Germans have little or no infantry.
 By the opposition offered by the Belgian troops at Liege, the Germans lost precious time which was profita- bly employed by the French and Brit ish in massing their troops at conven- tent points near Verneberg All day the forces have been disposed SO as to be supported by the fortified mass at many crief points. But little or nothing was done about Brussels and .it is thought that the city was used as bait to attract the Germans.
 The Belgian people are anxiuos re- Farding Brussels. as the German cav airy are carrying on raids nearer the ! capital, but such considerations vii unlikely have any effect on the gener- al staff.
 The German army has moved north 'of Liege, advancing into the heart of Belgium. It is difficult to determine their object There is a screen Of ex- . traordinary strong force of cavalry along the entire front of the allied ar- mics A new army corps is investing Liege. The French cavalry engaged the Germans in sharp fighting Both armies are feeling their way.
 PARIS. Aug. 12-several hundred German prisoners passed through . Champigny station on their way to l Poicuers where they will be interned. The soldiers seemed quite unconcern- ed as to their fate. The German of- .hcers, however, were sulky.
 The untiring activity Of General Joseph Jeffrie, commanderin-chief of the French army, won the admiration of his troops. Since the first day of mobilization he has travelled a thou sand miles in a motor carand appears to be everywhere at once His ehauf- feur is the famous racing driver. Geo. Boillot, thrice winner of the Grand .Prix.
 The French minister of war explains that engagements on the Franco-Ger- man frontier are no more than outpost skirmishes The minister said France is placing in upper Alsace a consider able number of troops.
 "The best denial that can be given to the report that the French lost 2O, 900 men at Altkirch." says the minis try, "is that the total effective French troops did not reach that number"
 It is further explained that the ad- vance of the French infantry on Muel- Ihausen was to cut the center of the Herman communication and it isadded that this was successfully carried out The German bombardment of l IPoint-A-Mousson in the department of Muerthe and Moselle. twenty miles northwest of Nancy, began yesterday A hundred large shells fell in the town killing inhabitants and destroying buildings.
 An official statement says: "A wounded French cavalryman at Meg ieres declares he saw German cav Ialryman shoot a wounded Frenchman and says he heard five or siX other shots. and saved himself by feigning death The Germans are wearing uni forms taken from Belgians killed in
