With the British Armies in France ard Belgium, Oct. 24-(By The Asso- Ciated Press) The consolidation of the positions won by the allies in Mon- days attack was being rapidly com pleted today under a bright sun which Is mitigating somewhat the difficulties Of the work in the morass- like ground. Active artillery fire marked the night in the region east and north of Ypres.
 The report that British troops had found e. German officer who had been executed by his own soldiers. the body having the hands bound behind the back. has been confirmed. The incl dent occurred near Poelcapelle. There were fourteen German soldiers and young officers holding the place. When the British troops took the redoubt the German soldiers surrendered and the British found the dend officer with five bullet wounds in his body.
 An interesting statement was made by a captured officer of the guard re- serve division who had joined his regi- ment in the middle of October. He de- clared that the morale in Germany was very bad. Throughout the country. he said there was talk of the establish ment of a republic.
 The officer further said that the au- thorities had already called up the 1920 class in Brunswick.

The committee would do no harm and 1t would prob ably restore confidence to stockhold- Mr Venner made plea for the pre- ferred stock as a means of giving stockholders a firmer grip on the prop erty.

There we've frequent ttlts between Mr. Berenson and MT. Venner in dis cussing he company's finances and it was early evening before a vote was ordered MT. Elliott Replied to Critics.
 Howard Elliott at some length re- viewed the financial story of the road and its present condition. This was supplementary to an analysis made early in the day by President Pearson. MT. Elliott said that the public and, he thought, the government, was more fa- Vcrably inclined towards the company He replied to MT. Nixon, MT.

TEN PRISONERS ESCAPED
 FROM DETENTION CAMP
At Fort Mathematician Hans
 Berg is One of the Number.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 24.-Lieutenant Hans Berg. who brought the British liner Appam to Hampton Roads as a prize after her capture off the Azores, by the German raider .Moewe nearly two years ago, was one of the ten prisoners who escaped last night from the alien enemy detention camp at Fort McPherson. The other nine were members of the crews of the Appam and the famous commerce destroyer Prinz Eitel Frederick.
 Search for the prisoners turned to- night to Atlanta. where the military authorities believed they were hiding. Bloodhounds today trai1ed the men from the mouth of a tunnel, extend ing from their sleeping quarters to a point outside the prison fence. to a small stream a mile from the fort. There the trail was lost and it was believed the fugitives had waded in the water to throw the dogs off the scent. Their socks were found on the bank.
 The tunnel. through which the Ger mans escaped was about 100 feet long and officers at the fort said they evil dently had been working on it ever since their transfer here two weeks ago from Fort Oglethorpe.
 The escape of the prisoners was discovered this morning at roll call. Search of their quarters revealed that they must have worn their uniforms when they left, but officials believed they speedily would secure civilian clothing.
 Two other officers besides Berg es- caped, it was announced tonight. They were Arnold Henkel. 35, and Alfred ss, whose rank was not given. The other seven were seamen.
 Department of justice agents to- night announced a reward of $50 each for the capture of the Germans.
