Variance with Truth.

COPENHAGEN, Oct. l3.--In an effort to
contradict statements made by the War
saw Town Council and Danish relief
expedition the German Government has
issued an official denial OF reports that

ing to arrange for the sending OF food
supply by way of Denmark. and has

be frightful. Poland still is compelled
to feed the army of occupation.
