The War Summary

The first great battle of the war Is
raging in southern Belgium. accord
ing to sn official announcement from
Antwerp. The Germans. who for
the last week hate been pouring
across the Meus" above Namur,
came in contact early yesterday
with the allied forces
French, British and Belgian-be-
tween Namur and Charleroi. and
fighting is now in progress along the
entire twenty-mile line between
those historic cities.
The main German force in Belgium
is trying to push into France through
the Meuse and Sambre valleys, par
ticularly through the gap between
Charleroi and Mons 1t is the i'm
preston in Paris that large French
forces are massed at Mons. and the
early extension of the battle line to
that city may be expected.
The vigorous forward movement
against the allies is not. howeveS.
confined to southeast Belgium. Ex-
cluding Luxembourg, the whole Ger
man line from Ostend to upper AL
SAGE is trying to throw itself into
France. A Paris dispatch says the
Germans in AlsaCe-L Lorraine have
taken the offensive from all bases on
the line of the Rhine From west
Belgium il Is reported that the Ger
mans are marching toward France
by way OF Oudenarde, fourteen miles
southwest OF Ghent. This is directly
on a line with the strongly fortified
French city of Lille.
Furthermore. the signs point TO
third invasion from Belgium, still
nearer the coast. The pushing yester-
dav of the German lines through
Brussels. Ghent and Bruges to Os-
tend and the North Sea. gives a new
significance to the whole movement
in northern Belgium. II looks as
though the German grand strategy
embraces an attempt to clear the
The Washington times., 1914-08-23

whole Belgian and northern French
coast, and SO prevent further British
re-enforcements from landing in
France.
An argument against such a plan
of campaign is the immense forces
required, but il must be remember
ed that there have been no authori-
tstive statements as to the strength
of the German forces in Luxembourg
and these may have bBen exagger-
ated.
The main Belgian army appears to
be still hemmed in around Antwerp.
German troops have appeared north
of Antwerp, near the Dutch frontier.
1 This may mean that the Germans
will try to seize control of that part
of the Scheldt lying in Belgium
north of Antwerp and starve out
the city.
The time set for the compliance of
Germany with the demands of Japan
has expired. and a japanese declara-
ton of war and attack on kiaochow
followed. An intimation of most
alarming character appears in some
Tokyo newspapers which usually
speak with authority. Ii is to the
effect that il Japan takes Kiaochow
by force. she will consider II prize
of war. and may not hand II over
to China, as she pledged herself to
do If Germany evacuated peacefully.
Washington officials, however, be-
lieve that Japan will Loyalty surren-
der Kiaochow to China in any case
St. Petersburg dispatches indicate
that the Russian invasion of Ger
many is under way in force. Five
hundred thousand men are said to
have entered east Prussia and to
be successfully maintaining the Of
fensive.
Further Servian dispatches empha-
size the overwhelming character of
the defeat of the Austrians in their
three-day battle with the Servians
on the river Drina. The Austrian
casualties are placed as high as
$500
Reports are current in Rome that
a general mobilization of the Italian
army will be proclaimed in few
days. The alleged arming of AL
banians by Austria is given as the
cause.
The Washington times., 1914-08-23

1000 men. says a dispatch from

TO have been lured into valley
