BELGIANS PROTEST

Saw Forced Labor in ArsenalS
Violates the Hague
Convention.

Paris. Aug. "a report of the Bel
gian committe, investigating violations
of international law, issued here to-
day BY the Belgian Legation. is de-
voted to instances of alleged viola
tons by the Germans of Article 81. Of
the Fourth Hague Convention. govern
ing the laws and customs of land war
fare.
Examples cited cover alleged German
attempts. first, by offering wages as
high as 20 marks (about So day,
and finally by force, to compel Belgian
civilians to work in arsenals, on rail-
ways used for military purposes and
in wire factories. The report gives de-
tails of alleged violations at Luttre,
Malines and Swevedhem, and quotes
the text of an order declared TO have
been signed by Lieutenant General
Count Won Westarf, German commander
at Client, dated June 10, in part, as
follows:
"The attitude of certain factories
which, under the preteXt of patriotism,
relying on the Hague Convention, re-
fuse to work for the German army,
proves that among the population there
is an inclination to raise difficulties for
the administration of the German army.
In this connection | inform you that
will suppress such man9uvres by all
means in my power"

German NareW Advance
Is at Rate of Mile a Day
An Cable 10 The Tribune.

Petrogrod, Monday, Aug dispatch
to "The London Daily News~ Rus
sian resistance in the triangle between
the Vistula- Narew- Bug lines is such
that the Germans have for twenty two
days been unable to cover more than
about mile a day and are still unable
to pierce the wall which separates them
from the main force retreating toward
the Brest-Litovsk line.
The determination of the Russian in
fantry on the Narew has been especial
ly successful in helping to permit the
entire Russian army TO occupy a new
position without any loss, whereas the
Germans, especially at Kovno, have
suffered almost a debacle. Two thou
sand prisoners who arrived at Wilma
yesterday complain that the Russians
remain in such force that none Of their
reserves have yet been in action and
that the Germans cannot contemplate
sending any of their fourteen corps
westward
Careful observers argue that the
enemy has probably changed his plan.
He may be now confning himself to
Selling whatever land he can in Poland
and West Russia as an Offset to his
loss of colonies and TO use il as coun-
ter in the final settlement.

U.S. WILL AGREE
TO FRYE COURT
Ready to Arbitrate Dispute
with Germany on Sink
ing of Ship.

Washington, Aug. 9.-The American
reply to the German note Of July 30
on the sinking of the American sailing
vessel William P. Frye will be sent tc
Berlin this week. It has been sent to
President Wilson for his approval.
While officials will not divulge the
contents of the note, it is understood
that the German proposal to aroltrate
will be agreed to, provided the physical
difficulties in the way can be overcome.
Officials say there is nothing to be
gained in exchanging further notes on
the subject, as the two governments are
as far apart as the poles on the ques-
ton Of the Interpretation Of the treaty
of 1928, but how to find an impartial
umpire for a court of arbitration
puzzles them. a..
The matter might be left until the
end of the war but for the fact that
Germany has shown, by torpedoing the
Leelanaw, that she does not intend 70
abide by the American Interpretation
of the treaty pending the settlement. IL
is felt that to permit more vessels 10
be sunk while waiting for a favorable
opportunity to arbitrate would be tam
tamount to acknowledging the German
contentious, so far as actual results are
concerned.
If a court can be formed that meets
with the approval of the two govern.
ments, its decision is expected TO be or
very great Importance to maritime ma
tions. affecting not only the specihc
question proposed for arbitration. but
the whole argument of military ne
cessity."
The German contention virtually is
that treaties must be set aside when
circumstances are such that TO conform
with them would mean a distinct mill
tary disadvantage to the belligerent. In
the case of the Frye it is argued that
to have complied with the treaty would
have meant either abandonment Of the
contraband cargo, permitting 1t to go to
its hostile destination, or grave danger
TO the German ship.
Should a court of arbitration uphold

to Surprise AuStrianS

Paris. Aug. Hosting their guns

crags of Ercavallo, the Italians have
succeeded in driving the Austrians
from their lofty intrenchments, ac-
cording TO an official statement dated

the accurate fire of the Italian noun

from the south over Val del Monte
tNoce), surprised and dispersed on
the morning of the 7th troops Of the
enemy intrenched southeast of the
peak of Ercavallo, capturing bombs,
fuse cartridges and other material.
On the same day other detach-
ments OF the enemy intrenched at
Malaga Palude. northeast of the peak
of Ercayallo, were driven from their
position by the accurate fire OF our
mountain artillery, which had been
hoisted to a height of more than TO-
600 feet on the crags of Ercavallo.
In the valley of SeXten, in Galore,
after careful preparation by our
medium calibre artillery during the
last few days, our infantry advanced,
gradually forcing back the enemy.

there were $50 troop ships waiting to

as 10 whether the men would be sent
TO France or to the Dardanelles. But

counter attacks, which were immedi-

stretch wire entanglements before

The southern part Of the Doberdo

Austro-German Wedge
Splits Russian Line

Headquarters of the Austrian Army
in Poland (yia London, Aug. 9:-The
defeat of the Russians on Sunday IN
the fighting on the line between Lubar-
tow and Miechow resulted in driving
two groups apart, leaving large gap
between. Russian troops fighting north
of Lubartow fed northeast to cross the
Vieprz at Lessekowice about, twelve
miles north Of Lubartow, while those
around Miechow fled northwest to reach
the Vieprz by way of Baranow.
It is impossible at t is moment to
determine how serious a danger from
the Russians this breach may prove,
but probably they are amply protected
against dangerous inroad upon their
line of retreat by troops withdrawing
from Ivangorod along the highway run
ming parallel with the north bank of
the Vieprz to Radzyn.
