GERMANY HAS.
WRUNG BILLION

(Bv Associated Press.l


Washington, Oct. %. - Germany
has so far wrung about $1,000. 600. 900
in cash from stricken Belgium, quite
exclusive of what she has gained by
occupation Of the country and sys-
tematic exploitation of its resources
and people. Information reaching
here through official channels
makes this estimate and adds that
the German deportations of Belgians
to work in Germany continue without
abatement and that the looting or
Belgian industry continues.
According to this information Ger
many still takes Belgians for forced
labor on the German front in France,
while the recruiting for Germany by
means of false promises and moral
pressure goes steadily on"
German newspapers have printed
during the last year, according to
this information, notices inviting
German manufacturers in need OF
labor to apply to the German indus
trial bureau, the organization operat-
ing in Belgium during the violent
deportations of 1867.
The federation of German metallur-
gists has issued circular announc-
ing that, at the request Of the NUM-
tons department, the director of the
federation has been appointed inter-
mediary to procure for German work
shops the machinery taken from the
occupied territories. The information
also is to the effect that the manu-
featuring secrets of Belgian trade
have been violated by the Germans,
including the action OF DR.. Emile

office permit, who surprised" the

frances Colonial Troops Are
Proud of The Fact That They
Are Fighting As Volunteers

the French colonial volunteers are
the coal-black Senegalese. Their
courage in the field and their devo-
ton to their white officers have be-
come proverbial. The mentality OF
these trihesmen is almost infantile
in its simplicity, but they are quick
to learn. Their adaptability is such
in warlike matters that they have
become expert in very short time
with all the most modern weapons.
Many of them before coming to
France have undergone training in
the colonies and consequently are
acquainted with European drill and
discipline. Others are raw recruits,
who are exercised first when they
reach French soil. The eagerness OF
all to acquire proficiency with the
new weapons is such that even in
their hours of rest in their instruc-
ton camps they may be seen in
groups exercising with them and re-
peating the words OF command in
French, which they rapidly learn.

THIRTEEN ZEPPELINS
IN FLEET OF RAIDERS
Ships Captured by French Were of
Super-ZeppeIin Class, Measur-
...s ing $50 Feet.

Paris, oct. 23.-Official examina-
ton of the crews OF the Zeppelins
captured in France on returning
from the raid over England shows
that the expedition consisted of thir-
teen airships which left singly from
three depots on the night of Oct. 49,
The raid was expected to last from
twenty to twenty-five hours.
The raiders made for the English
coast, which was recognized by light
houses. They were hampered con-
siderably by the fire Of British anti
aircraft guns and by numerous
searchlights, which caused them to
drop almost all their bombs when
sailing at a height of more than H.
900 feet.
When the airships attempted to
return to their bases their speed was
slackened by the persistent head
winds. At dawn the Lac, which fell
intact into the hands OF the French,
dropped to a lower altitude, her COM
mander believing he was over Hol-
land or Westphalia. The crew way-
ed white flags. 1t was not until a.
m. that the commander became cer-
tain he was over France, and at the
same time the Zeppelin was sighted
by French airplanes. which forced It
to land.
A little later the L-50 passed over
the Las which was then on the
ground surrounded by French air.
planes. The L-50 Unanswered for a
landing in a neighboring wood to
give the members OF the crew as
good an opportunity as possible to
save themselves, but one car was
torn off. Part ct the crew escaped
by means of parachutes, The car
afterward was destroyed by means of
special pistols firing inhammable
discharges.
The Lao and L-50 belong to the
super Zeppelin class, measuring $50
feet. Their volume is $1,000 cubic
metres. The crews are made up or
petty officers who have undergone a.
special course OF instruction. They
were clad warmly in furs and leather
garments.

Asked Speedy Relief.
The railroads had asked at the
conference that a method OF proce-
dure be adopted under which they
might obtain speedily advances upon
certain commodities upon which they
were refused advances by the COM
mission last June, notably grain
products, dressed meats, petroleum,
sand, cement and stone. The COM
missions response not only pro-
vides speedy procedure under which
the railroads may present data look
ing to raise in rates on these
products-too speedy to suit some
of the railroads, it is understood-but
opens the doors to the admission of
testimony looking to a general ad-
vance in all rates east of the Mis-
sissippi and north of the Ohio rivers.
1t is regarded as probable that
the southern and western carriers,
particularly the latter, already snow
ing reductions in net earnings will
join in tho request for an advance
Between the reopening Of the case
and the granting of higher rates,
however, it was pointed out last
night, there is a wide distinction.
Under the present ruling, the east
ern roads will have to show con-
clusively the need Of increased rates
before the proposed increases viii
be authorized. The present proceed
ing simply permits the roads to pre-
sent their case. and apparently a
much larger case than the railroads
had figured on presenting so soon.
The commissions decision to re-
open the famous case, was announc-
ed in a letter made public last night,
addressed by its secretary to Mr..
Patterson at Philadelphia, in which
the way was left open for southern
and western carriers to join in the
proceedings, If they so desire.

proclaimed the day a Holiday.
The signal for the lighting OF Lib

will be given tonight when Mrs. w.
G. McAdoo. chairman of the Wo-

lights a fire at the Washington mon

Among the relics contributed by
the different states to the fire here
are pieces of wood from the birth
places Of Wilson, Cleveland, Jack
son, Johnson and Polk. Illinois has
contributed a piece of wood from
Lincoln's old home and Missouri a
piece from Grants log cabin.
Other contributions include a
single from General Clusters head
quarters at Old Fort Lincoln, in
North Dakota.
The Liberty Loan drive entered
the second day of the home stretch
with treasury department officials
far from sanguine that the $4,000
0O0, 900 goal will be reached. Their
lack of optimism is due to the fact
that returns indicate total subscrip-
