BELGIAN ARMY HEADQUARTERS
IN FLANDERS, Oct. 27 (By The AS

withdrew hastily from the North Sea
shore of Belgium they left behind q
series Of Notifications all the way
from Zeebrugge to Nieuport. The en-
tire shore is one continuous line of
redoubts. reinforced concrete dugouts,
trenches and barbed wire entanglc
ments, with gun pits about every fifty
yards.
The Germans carried of most of the
guns, but retired SO hastily they had
to leave a great many behind
The German abandonment of the
Belgian North Sea shore was thor
ough and deliberate in the vicinity of
Ostend, where they left behind little
of their material. The haste Of their
movement increased, however, from
.Blankenberghe northward.
Zeebrugge is q city of barbed wire,
concrete, steel and ruins. From the
breakwater to points about mile in
land there are five lines. each of from
four to five rows of barbed wire.
There are also dugouts and block
houses craftily camouflaged. Two huge
guns still stand guard over the break
water, pointing across the sea toward
England, but the breeches are gone.
An Excellent Job
At the centre of the entrance to the
locks lie two British ships sunk by
the British in the gallant action Of
last June. The job was thoroughly
done, the entrance being completely
blocked except for about ten yards
on either side, where the Germans had
sunk two small sloops. The unre-
paired breakwater remains as proof
of the further success of the British
foray into Zeebrugge.
The road from Ostend TO Zeebrugge,
which the Germans recently held, is
one continuous fortress, with many
guns silhouetted against the sky. The
number Of guns increases as the forti-
fled line nears Zeebrugge.
The Germans evidently meant that
this line should be q permanent one.
One concrete blockhouse. 80 by 80 feet,
remains unfinished. and there are
other evidences that the Germans
started work on new Notifications as
late es month ago.

The fact that not all the bridges

planned that the German, General Staff
had given orders to destroy all the
bridges. However, the German non
commissioned officers detailed for the
work of destruction, he added, fell easy
