TRENCHES SHOW
WHAT SOLDIERS
HAD TO ENDURE
Dugout Once Used by Ger.
mans is Now Used as
Refrigerator.

Dixmude, Belgium, Sept. 22.-(By
the Associated Press. )-Lining the
banks Of the User river, far as the
eye can see. are the trenches which
for SO many months during the war
were occupied by the Belgian and
German armies, the, Belgians on the
south bank and the Germans on the
north. They still bear many marks
of shell and rifle fire, and mouldy
straw lying on the damp floors still
convey some idea Of the hardships to
which the soldiers were subjected.
On the German side OF the river is
a dugout, built to resist the heaviest
projectiles, and cool even on hot
day. 1t was favorite gathering spot
for the Germans when the fighting
was fiercest, but now serves the more
useful purpose of refrigerator. In
stead of the hunks and chairs which
once lined it's sides one now sees pile
upon pile of beer cases. filed with
refreshment for the soldier guard at
work cleaning up the ground.
Behind the dugout, the bodies OF
three soldiers-two Belgians and one
German-were buried on the bank of
a tiny pond. made by bursting shells.
Little crosses marking the resting
places and over them poppies nod.
~ Along the User one may plainly see
the effects of the hard fought strug-
gle. Here and there the top of dug
out has been crushed in, and further
along the duckboards from an aban-
doned trench may be seen sticking
through the mud. Within sight of the
bridge. the muzzle of field piece,
rusted and useless, points to the sky.
Much of the debris of the battle
field has already been collected. Miles
upon miles of barbed wire have been
reclaimed from the entanglements,
German and Allied, which stretched
in front of the lines but at some
points along the river bank the old
still remain, rusted and
| twisted on stakes which are fast fall
ing into the ground. There are great
piles Of reeled wire which has not
mills, while the military telephone
systems are still stretched upon short
stakes.
| The people of Dixmude. like the
people Of every other destroyed Bel
gian town, are gradually returning to
the ruins Of their homes. The help
being given them by the government
is giving them heart and strength to
begin life over again. Here one may
see man patching up shell hole in
his house with few bricks taken
from the ruins of his neigh bors
home, and in another place men and
women too, are patching roof.
But these instances are few. In
most cases the destruction was so
complete that nothing is left for the
poor Belgian but to build a new
house.
But the people are happy and
cheerful. They go about their work
with smiling faces and merry laugh.

Unsettled Conditions.

Kars, Russian Trans-Caucasia. Sum-
day, Sept. 2S.-By Courier by the AS
sociated Press. 1.-The American mis-
sion headed by Major General James
6, Harbord, on arriving in Kars found
the same unsettled conditions as
throughout Turkey, except for less in
tensity of fighting and lawlessness.
Proceeding from Sivas to Erzignan.
and thence to Erzerum over the old
Turko-Russian frontier. the mission
met with many courtesies at the hands
of the Turks. Few Arnenians were
found in these regions.
AS the frontier was approached
General Harbord was appealed to by
hundreds of Moslem families who
were travelling together in caravans,
fleeing from the regions partly con-
trolled by the Armenians. These
Turks attempted to show that they
had been as much abused in the past
by the Armenians as the Armenians
themselves and that at the present
| time the Armenians were still carry
ing out massacres among them. The
outstanding fact evolved in traversing
| the country is that it is Suffering from
an appalling lack in population.
Wherever the mission went through
the mountains they found village aft
er-village deserted or in ruins Aside
from certain coast cities along the
Black sea, or on the Mediterranean
little or no trade was carried on. 1t
was misery unadorned.
Probably no such habitahle terri
tory in the world presents such terri
BILE signs of desolateness as this. It
was as if the entire Ottoman empire
had collapsed, and it seemed evident
! that if some outside help which the
Turks are pleading for is not given
the country cannot recover.
This fact is recognized not only by
the intellectual Turks, but by the
chiefs of the Kurd tribes. Every

MARCH TOWARD PETROGRADBY

FAVORABLY, SAYS DISPATCH
Mutiny Among Bol.heviilii Xxi
Troops Reported; Petro-

Forces.

London, Oct. 1.-THE march OF
General Yudenitch at the head Of the
northwestern Russian army on the
city of Petrograd was still progressing
favorably at the latest advices. Some
apparently outrun his actual prog
ress. There appeared, for instance,
some doubt today whether the fortress
of Kronstadt, outpost at the water
approach to Petrograd, had capitulat-
ed to British naval forces, as indicat-
ed in reports during the night. The
British admiralty had received no con-
firmatory advices, and the accuracy of
the news was questioned In admiralty
circles.
Dispatches from Scandinavia have
announced the capture of Gatchina.
rs miles south of Petrograd. by the
Yudenitch forces, and stated that
Yudenitch was advancing on the
Tsarkoe-Selo, former summer resi-
dence of the late Emperor Nicholas,
and krasnoye Selo, nearby.
Reports of the capture of these
places by the anti-Bolshevik army.
however, seemed of doubtful accuracy.
A Bolshevik wireless station is located
near Tsarskoe Selo, and announce
ment was made by the wireless press
here this morning that the Bolsheviki
were apparently still in possession of
it, as soviet propaganda was yet being
sent out from the station during this
forenoon.
Mutiny Breaks Out. ~
Soviet troops are reported to be
leaving PetrOgrad. Mutiny among the
men has broken out.
In any event advices indicate that
the Yudenitch forces are encounter
ing feeble resistance.
Bolshevik troops are said to have
captured Kiev. but in this region the
situation is obscure. 1t was reported
last week that Kiev was in the hands
which advanced against General Deni-
kine's left flank following Petlura's
declaration of war on the Cossack
chieftain.
+, Further details of the situation
south of Moscow have not been re-
ceived,, but it appears the Bolshevik
armies in that region are launching
counter attacks against General Deni-
klnes llnes.-' With the, exception of
the capture of @Kiev, the. Bolsheviks

In the meantime Admiral Kolchak,
