The invasion found the Belgian
army In the midst Of an entire re-
organization of its artillery. Siege
cannon, ordered from the Krupp
works in Germany, had not been fur-
nishcd. Millions of cartridges or

been held up. 1t was with a disor-
ganised armament and insufficient ma
terial that the Belgians held the Ger

The reorganization was difficult.
Unable to call a session Of parlia.
ment to revise recruiting laws to ac-
cord with the new situation. the gov
ernmeht could only appeal to the pat.

to reconstitute an army Of six di-
visions of infantry and two divisions
OF cavalry, while $4,000 men were de.
taehed for the manufacture Of muni-
tions in France and 600 sent to Rus

A $2S,000 damage suit, arising out
Of the Rapp-Schoeder murder, triple
killing, which shocked Omaha three
years ago, and which, it is persistently
rumored, will be reopened as an issue

Chief Dunn's charges against Captain

Mrs. Marguerite Rapp, widow OF
William Rapp. one of the victims of
the tragedy, is suing Peter Moscrey,
formerly a saloon keeper at 1902
South Twentieth street, on behalf OF
herself and her four young daughters.
The widow alleges that liquor pro-
cured in Moscrey's place on the night
OF the murder, July Is, 1914, caused
her husband, Fred Schroeder and Peter
Schroeder to "ioiter and delay on their
way home and to become boisterous,
noisy, careless, reckless, annoying and
quarrelsome to persons unknown"
The Schroeder brothers and Rapp
were shot down in the street in the
neighborhood of Twenty-fourth and
Pecife streets between 10 and ii
o'clock at night, according to Mrs,

Training Camp Vacancies
Not to Be Filled Now

Washington, May 2S.-The War de-
partment announced today that vacan-
cies in the officers training camps, re-
sulting from the withdrawal Of candi-
dates for commission or from any
other reason, will not be filled. .
A considerable number at each OF
the thirteen camps have dropped out
because they proved unsuited to mill
tary life, and there has been rush OF
applicants to fill the gaps. The de-
partment holds, however that the first
two weeks of the training course are
essential, and will delay the entrance
of all applicants until the second
series of companies to be started
when the first series has completed its
work.
Applicants for the negro officers
training camp at Fort Des Moines
were examined today in all the mill
tary departments. Officials do not
doubt that more than the 1000
civilians who can be admitted have
enrolled.

Headquarters Of the Belgian Artil-
lery Establishment, Behind the Al.
lies Front, May 7.--Here, where the
Belgian army is making Its own can
non, its own rifles, It's own shells. its
own transport wagons, its own sad
dies and harness, one can appreciate
how other outstanding features of the
war have unduly obscured the Belgian
military effort since the battles OF
1914.
The Belgian army had six divisions
Of infantry and two divisions of cav
airy left to bold lire Of approxi-
niately eighteen miles, or just about
four men to the yard of front. on a
front where particular vigilance Is
required. No part of the allies line
is more closely watched and explored
by the enemy's patrols. A weak spot
anywhere would provoke an immedi-
ate offensive.
Belgium lost all its manufacturing
establishments and, all its resources
in raw materials ii the defeat OF the
allies at Charleroi and in the retreat
from Antwerp. yet Monsieur de Bro
queville, minister OF war, has built

ments, that not only enable the Bel

MORE CHANGES MADE
IN WAR TAX BILL
Senate Finance Committee Elk.

Chewing Gum.

Washington, May 2S.--Involving
further reduction OF the house war tax
bill by $ls,sO00OO, the senate finance
committee decided to exempt motion
picture films, jewelry and chewing
gum from taxation. A new confec-
tionary tax was considered.
Instead Of the house rates on man
ufacturers' gross sales of athletic
goods, perfumes, cosmetics and
proprietary medicines, the committee
decided to keep them as sources Of
revenue. but by stamp taxes instead
of the 5 per cent gross sales tax. The
committee also is considering a tax
on tonnage of pleasure yachts instead
Of the house tax on their cost.
The changes decided upon today
followed the committees decision to
strike out the 5 per cent tax on all
manufacturers sales.

German Air Raids

London, May 28.-The newspapers

did it result in the greatest number OF
casualties Of any raid yet made, but
they consider it as a probable fore
runner of. many similar raids, which
may in time be multiplied to the ex-
tent OF amounting to invasion.
The great speed and height at which
airplanes operate, as well as their
virtual immunity from damage by

among the reasons why they have re-
placed the Vulnerable Zeppelins, and

American Beet Sugar
Industry Grows Rapidly

Washington, May 2S.--Growth OF
the American beet sugar industry
IRON 1870 to 1914 is traced in a re-

600 tons of beet sugar, 10 per cent
Of its consumption. AT that time
there were seventy.eight factories
against three in 1870.

dustry since 1897" says this report,
has been largely due to direct en-
